Seeing that "Tang Wutong" dared not speak further, Zhao Ling led her towards the carriage. The perverted men, beaten to tears, immediately shouted.
"Kid, if you've got guts, don't you dare leave! Your wife beat up our brothers. If you dare to leave, believe it or not, we'll..."
"Noisy..." Zhao Ling coldly glanced at them. Instantly, the men felt an inexplicable sense of danger surge through their hearts. The next second, they saw their heads flying from their necks, then rolling to the ground, their bodies collapsing lifelessly. Even in death, they didn't see how Zhao Ling had struck. The other onlookers, who had been enjoying the show, were also scared stiff, their faces pale.
Zhao Ling coldly swept his gaze over everyone, then led "Tang Wutong" into the carriage. "Tang Wutong" didn't dare to resist, fearing that this guy would severely spank her backside.
Zhao Ling took "Tang Wutong" back to the mansion. After getting out of the carriage, he pondered in his mind how to deal with this girl. This girl not only didn't call him "husband" when she saw him on the street, but she didn't even call him Brother Ling. This girl acted as if she didn't know him. He had given her too much face. Today, Zhao Ling declared that if he didn't teach this girl a profound and unforgettable lesson, he'd write his name backward.
Zhao Ling, full of imposing aura, led "Tang Wutong" to the main gate and pushed it open. He happened to see five women gathered around a mahjong table, enthusiastically playing mahjong. Perhaps hearing Zhao Ling push the door open, all five heads turned to look at Zhao Ling, almost in unison, saying.
"Husband... you're back?"
Seeing this, Zhao Ling froze. Huh, it seems Tong'er is playing mahjong over there. So, who is this girl I'm holding?
Zhao Ling slowly turned his head, his eyes wide with surprise as he looked up and down at the girl who was identical to his Tong'er. He quickly and instinctively let go of her hand. Awkward, utterly awkward. Thinking about how he had just spanked this girl's backside, he felt an urge to find a crack in the ground and burrow into it.
He carefully examined the girl's appearance; she was no different from Tong'er. He suddenly thought of something, swallowed hard, and tentatively asked.
"You... you wouldn't happen to be that Emperor Rui Beast from the Star Dou Great Forest, would you?"
The long, wavy-haired girl in front of him pondered for a moment. It seems this man is indeed Zhao Ling. But what puzzled her was that he clearly knew of her existence long ago, and even the Zhao Ling's Diary Copy was given to her by him. Why did he look so surprised? Did he not know that she had taken human form? That didn't make sense. If it wasn't him who helped her transform, then could it be that strange diary's own idea? What a joke, could a diary have its own consciousness? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
She believed that Zhao Ling was definitely feigning ignorance. Alright, if he likes to pretend, let him pretend. She would just act as if she didn't know. Thinking this, she nodded heavily: "Yes, that's right, I am the Emperor Rui Beast, but I prefer you to call me Wang Qiuer..."
"???"
Zhao Ling was instantly dumbfounded. The Emperor Rui Beast had indeed been born at this time. But at this point in time, she should only have about five thousand years of cultivation, making human transformation impossible. And how did she know her name was Wang Qiuer? The name Wang Qiuer, in the original novel, was clearly given to her after she transformed because the Emperor Rui Beast had sensed that the girl Huo Kaihang liked was named Wang Dong'er, so she deliberately named herself Wang Qiuer.
Wait... Zhao Ling quickly called out to the system in his mind.
"Damn system, did you do something behind my back that I don't know about? How did Wang Qiuer transform? Don't tell me this has nothing to do with you. If you don't explain this clearly to me, believe it or not, I'll part ways with you! Don't think I'm a fool; I'm not that easy to trick..."
To Zhao Ling, who was now uncontrollably agitated, the system panel simply displayed two messages.
[Due to the host diligently writing the diary for the past five years, this system knows you have feelings for Wang Qiuer. Therefore, it granted her 5,000 years of cultivation and bestowed upon her a portion of Tang Wutong's divine sense to aid her transformation and the birth of her self-awareness. Furthermore, it planted feelings for you in her mind, as a reward to you. The system hopes the host will continue to write the diary diligently in the future.]
Holy crap? So it could be done like this? Does that mean the system was completely thinking for him?
Zhao Ling's eyes widened instantly, and he flattered the system in his mind.
"System, you're my brother, my true brother! Thank you, I thank your ancestors for eighteen generations, I..."
Perhaps unwilling to listen to Zhao Ling's blabbering, the system panel disappeared without a trace, leaving Zhao Ling no way to express his heartfelt gratitude. Zhao Ling was overjoyed. Thanks to big brother System's brilliant foresight, it had already planted feelings for him in Wang Qiuer's heart long ago.
So, even though he had just spanked her backside repeatedly, she didn't seem very angry. She even said she preferred him to call her Wang Qiuer. Zhao Ling had to admit, this system was getting better and better at being "human." He absolutely had to give it a huge thumbs up.
At this moment, Tang Wutong and the other four women also quickly walked over, curiously observing Wang Qiuer. However, in the past five years, having been by Zhao Ling's side, they had seen countless strange things, so they were no longer surprised. Just to avoid being guessed by their husband that they already knew of Wang Qiuer's existence through the diary copy, Xiao Wu deliberately frowned in confusion and looked at Tang Wutong, saying.
"Xiao Qi, I remember I only gave birth to you in that dream. How could there suddenly be someone identical to you?"
Xiao Rou also feigned confusion, carefully examining Wang Qiuer up and down: "Huh, why do I have another granddaughter? Is she also like Xiao Wu, a strange case?"
Ah Yin and Liu Erlong watched the mother and daughter play-acting and couldn't help but twitch their mouths. Heh heh, can you two be any less fake? At least try to make it look real. Fortunately, their husband focused all his intelligence on how to deal with them, his sisters. Otherwise, he probably would have figured out what was going on.
Ah Yin quickly stepped forward, gently took Wang Qiuer's hand, and said softly.
"My dear sister, I feel like we're old friends. Would you be willing to stay here at this mansion?"
For Ah Yin, no matter if this woman named Wang Qiuer was an Emperor Rui Beast or an incarnation of that girl Wutong. She was, after all, someone who delivered herself to take a hit for her, so why would she push her away?
