Wait, why is this blond guy a lolicon?

P.S.: A recap: all the "Heavenly Paths" are little lolis, cough cough... you know what will happen in the finale...

P.S.: Just to remind you again, Meiyu and Jiang Ling are already an old married couple, so they've done everything you can imagine, and even things you haven't thought of. In short, they've had a lot of fun (lol~).

"Hmm~ Let's arrange it like this then~"

After deciding who would live with whom and which villas could be left vacant for the time being, Li Meiyu smiled sweetly and clasped her hands together: "Finally finished, isn't it time for lunch?"

"Ah, all done." Seeing that Meiyu was smiling, Jiang Ling was completely relieved. He hugged her from behind and asked with a smile, "Meiyu, my wife, you can eat whatever you want."

"Eating with just two people is so boring." Li Meiyu maintained her sweet smile and soft voice, showing no sign of anything amiss.

Jiang Ling: ?

His heart skipped a beat, and he tentatively asked, "So you mean... go find Kexin and have dinner with her? I'll call her right now..."

"Hehe, you idiot, when did Meiyu say she wanted to see Kexin?"

Li Meiyu smiled even more brightly, her eyes curving into crescent moons, revealing two sharp little tiger teeth. She looked obedient, but her eyes concealed a little cunning and a hint of coldness.

Jiang Ling: "..."

There's a lingering sense of foreboding.

"Then who are you looking for?"

"Yan Youyou".

"who?!!"

"Hmm? What's wrong? Can't I go see your wife, Youyou?" Li Meiyu turned around, looked up at him, and said matter-of-factly, "We're both pregnant with your child, and Meiyu is the official wife. It's only right and proper that you go see her, isn't it?"

Jiang Ling: "..."

"Uh...isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"Hmph..." Seeing his troubled expression, Li Meiyu crossed her arms and snorted coldly, "What do you think Meiyu is going to do? Target her? Or kick her out?!"

"You idiot, you stinky blondie! Don't think so little of Miyu!"

"Since I said I was willing to accept other girls, Miyu won't go back on her word. Miyu doesn't mean anything by it, she just wants to meet her."

"Then I'll tell her..."

"No need!" Li Meiyu stopped Jiang Ling, who was about to send a message, and snorted. "Hmph, in the end, isn't she the mistress? Meiyu has to swallow her pride and go see her herself, do she need to notify her in advance?!"

"this……"

"You idiot, you stinky blondie! Don't forget, Meiyu is carrying your child too!" Li Meiyu puffed out her cheeks, lifted her skirt to reveal her still-flat stomach, grabbed his hand and pressed it against her belly. "Since you're carrying my own flesh and blood, I'll leave the affairs of the harem to Meiyu. You just stand aside obediently, okay?"

Since the Empress had spoken, Jiang Ling had no other choice but to nod silently and sigh.

"Okay, but please don't go too far. Youyou...she's suffered so much, you know...she's been bullied since she was little..."

"Meiyu knows." Li Meiyu lowered her skirt to cover her lower abdomen, her eyes flickered slightly, and her tone softened a bit, "Meiyu would never bully her."

"It was just... a chat with her."

……

Meanwhile, in Shen Yue's top-floor laboratory.

Yan Youyou rested in the guest room all morning, then sat in the living room and chatted with Shen Yue about Jiang Ling.

"I see." Yan Youyou nodded gently. "So it was because of her that you did those things...?"

"Hmm..." Shen Yue's ahoge (cowlick) swayed. "No, not entirely. I seem to have a different kind of feeling for him."

"Hehe, really?" Yan Youyou smiled wryly, lowering her head to gently stroke her lower abdomen. "After all, A-Ling is very outstanding and powerful. In Shen Yue's words, from a biological point of view, A-Ling is already top-notch as a male. As a female, it's normal to have feelings for him."

Shen Yue nodded silently and replied in a low voice, "Perhaps."

"Hmm..." Yan Youyou paused, "Shen Yue, you heard what A-Ling said to me, right?"

"Hmm." Shen Yue's ahoge (cowlick) swayed, and her purple eyes gleamed. "You're pregnant with his child."

"Are there any medications suitable for pregnant women?" Yan Youyou asked.

"Pregnant women shouldn't take any medication."

"Shen Yue, I need it." Yan Youyou stared at her, her tone calm yet firm. "You're thinking about what happened before, and whether it will make me hate you, right?"

Shen Yue didn't say anything, her ahoge (cowlick) just kept swaying.

"You will definitely be with Ah Ling in the future and have children with her."

A few seconds of silence followed. Shen Yue rummaged through the drawer, found a bottle of Vitamin C, tore off the label, and handed it to her.

"One pill a day, for pregnancy support... Youyou."

"Mmm." Yan Youyou took out a pill and popped it into her mouth without hesitation.

"Aren't you afraid I might add something to it?" Shen Yue asked.

"Shen Yue..." Yan Youyou gently stroked her lower abdomen. Since becoming pregnant, the girl seemed to have matured a lot in an instant, her voice carrying a reassuring gentleness, "You won't. Even if Shen Yue claims to only care about science, deep down she actually craves 'love,' right?"

Shen Yue remained silent.

Yan Youyou stood up and smiled slightly: "I'm going home."

"Hmm." Shen Yue didn't get up to see the guest off; she kept her head down, lost in thought.

……

Yan Youyou hailed a taxi.

He returned to his old, dilapidated residence.

The once quiet, old mansion was now surrounded by more than a dozen people. Among them, a wealthy woman with many crow's feet was pushing a wheelchair.

Sitting in the wheelchair is an old acquaintance, Gu Meizi, whose legs are both paralyzed.

Last time in the alley, Yan Youyou's three punches not only broke Gu Meizi's left arm, but also caused comminuted fractures in both of her legs, ruptured and necrotic Achilles tendons, which will never be repaired in this lifetime.

"Mom! Mom!!!!" From her wheelchair, Gu Meizi spotted Yan Youyou, who had just gotten out of the taxi, and screamed, her voice filled with a desperate roar, "That bitch Yan Youyou is back...she's back! Aaaaaaahh ...

Her bloodthirsty eyes were fixed on Youyou, like a vicious wolf, wishing she could devour her alive.

That bastard... he made me end up like this, half-dead!

Gu Meizi's mother, Gu Meiyun, immediately stepped forward angrily and, without saying a word, raised her hand and slapped Yan Youyou hard across the face.

"You little slut, you dare mess with my daughter? I don't care what your connections are with the city police, I'll fuck you to death today!"

In her youth, Gu Meiyun, a ninth-dan black belt, followed Gu Meizi's father in the underworld for many years, earning the formidable title of "Meiyunzi".

Later, he retired from his life of crime and opened a KTV. He lived a life of luxury for many years, but his fighting ability in actual combat was as good as ever!

Her best friends all advised her—that the municipal bureau had intervened in Yan Youyou's case, and that the people shouldn't fight against the officials; taking a step back would open up a whole new world for them…

But she wouldn't listen!

Firstly, she didn't believe that someone who had been beaten by her daughter since childhood could climb to a high position; secondly, she only had this one daughter, who had been beaten into a cripple.

Which mother could swallow this insult?!

Even Yan Youyou's awful mother wouldn't be able to swallow this, right?

So she came today to seek justice for her beloved daughter.

"Snap—"

The expected sharp slap did not occur. Instead, Yan Youyou lightly grabbed the wrist of the outstretched hand, rendering it immobile.

"What?!" Gu Meiyun's expression changed drastically. She tried to pull her hand back, but found that the other person's hand was like an iron clamp and wouldn't budge.

"You're such a good mother," Yan Youyou said calmly, her fingertips gently pinching the skin.

There was a crisp "snap" sound.

Gu Meiyun let out a piercing scream: "Aaaaaaaahhhhhh! My left hand—you bastards...Second Brother, Uncle, what are you standing there for? Hit her!"

Those dozen or so people were all relatives that Gu Meiyun had brought. As soon as they saw their little sister being beaten, they rushed forward.

"You little bitch, you want to mess with my sister and niece? You'll have to step over my dead body first!"

"You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! You little brat, you dare lay a hand on my niece! You'll get a taste of my fist, as big as a sandbag!"

"Auntie, we'll make her kneel before you later!"

"Auntie, watch me beat her up! Hehehehe—!"

Yan Youyou: ...

She stood there, watching the large group of people rushing towards her, her face completely expressionless.

He didn't even lift his eyelids.
