"Is that so?" Zhu Yan's expression darkened further, his handsome eyes revealing little emotion, but his words carried a threat: "But you and I both know that half-demons don't live past thirty. How many more years can he stay with you?"

"My darling, only I can give you a long-lasting companionship."

"Get out!" Si Jin shouted, her face darkening. Her eyes were red and her voice was filled with exhaustion. "Zhu Yan, don't make me feel even more disgusted with you."

"Alright." Zhu Yan turned around readily, her black clothes swaying slightly with the movement, and said resignedly, "I'll go out and cook for you."

Zhu Yan walked out, and the palace doors closed again, leaving Xiao Yao still in a daze.

What's going on here? What are the adults up to now?

Tongzi didn't understand. She slowly stretched out her little paws and was about to say something when she saw Sijin hug the blanket. Her red eyes seemed unable to bear the surging emotions any longer, and two tears actually fell from her eyes.

Turning to the side, she looked so aggrieved that her demonic power went out of control, and her fox ears were exposed. Soon, they drooped down again, looking utterly pathetic.

He seemed to be talking to himself, or perhaps to someone, murmuring, "A-Yuan, I miss you so much."

Xiao Yao: [? ? ?]

A sense of panic arose in Tongzi's heart, and he immediately connected to the system to test Sijin's divine power.

The test results were all normal.

What are you doing?!

Xiao Yao was stunned in her mind's eye for twenty seconds before raising her paw again and tentatively speaking to Si Jin.

"Sir... are you alright?"

"It's nothing." In just twenty seconds, Si Jin had returned to normal. He even raised his hand and leisurely wiped away the two tears that had come out of nowhere. He closed his eyes to rest, looking completely calm and collected.

Xiao Yao was completely bewildered by him.

It's simple to punish the scumbags, but the adults in the family are the real culprits!

Xiao Yao asked: "So you were crying just now...?"

Cry? Of course I'll cry. Si Jin countered with her divine sense: Didn't you notice that from the moment Zhu Yan entered, this room was under a layer of surveillance magic?

He explained: This layer of magic is unique to Xiao Ayuan's seven uncles. It is a special demonic power belonging to high-level tree spirits. It is like a camera that will broadcast the scene around me in real time.

【Huh?】This…Xiao Yao really didn’t notice.

Another useless day (┯_┯).

The tiger raised a small handkerchief to wipe away her tears, then asked, "Why did you act so pitiful? Didn't you think the little prince had suffered enough? Physically and emotionally tormented, waaaaah!"

The sentimental little system, as it spoke, couldn't help but start crying again.

What do you know? Si Jin's expression was firm: This move is called "putting yourself in a desperate situation to survive," A Yuan will understand.

He believed that Shao Linyuan had the ability to defy fate, but he lacked just a little... a small stimulus.

… …

Zhu Yan indeed sent food, all of which were delicacies from the demon realm.

The same thing happened for the next few days.

The more Si Jin abused him, the more he cared about Si Jin.

To cooperate with him, Si Jin even pretended to be controlled by his magic and underwent a forced amnesia.

Then, with her soft ears drooping, she whispered, "Zhu Yan, I remember I have a lover, and that person is not you."

Finally, after repeated failed attempts, Zhu Yan returned to her palace and, in a fit of rage, began to smash things.

Soon, they destroyed everything in the room, leaving nothing behind!

"Damn it! Even with amnesia, he still remembers that short-lived ghost! A half-demon is a half-demon, and a short lifespan is a short lifespan. Did I say something wrong?!"

“Jinjin, we have plenty of time. Once that half-demon is dead, I’ll bring his corpse over so you can forget about it.”

As he spoke, Zhu Yan laughed maniacally, as if he had found some new pleasure, and his whole being was almost insane.

He slowly straightened up, straightened his clothes, and was just about to go out to handle some business when he saw the demon soldiers rushing up from the foot of the mountain in a hurry.

As if witnessing something utterly terrifying, his chapped lips trembled uncontrollably: "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The emperor of the mortal realm has brought a large number of demon hunters up the mountain, and they have burned down the protective forest we set up!"
