Fu Hange vowed that she would make this trip to the palace the last one. Meng Shayue followed behind her, but Fu Hange had no intention of speaking to him.
Meng Shayue took the initiative to speak to Fu Hange, saying, "Fu Hange, do you trust me?"
Fu Hange didn't want to argue with him because she knew that Meng Shayue must have a lot to say, and she was afraid that she couldn't win the argument, so she simply kept quiet.
She rushed forward, and when she arrived, Fu Hange shouted to the guards at the door, "He's an assassin, please arrest him."
Meng Shayue was greatly alarmed. He and the guards at the gate looked at each other, unable to come up with a solution for the moment.
Seeing that they didn't believe her, Fu Hange continued, "If you don't believe me, Princess Jinxiu will die at the banquet tonight. If you do believe me, I'll arrest him. If he's not an assassin, we can release him later."
This is a good way to prevent any unforeseen circumstances without harming innocent people, but the guard still hesitated: "But... we don't have permission from above. If we detain prisoners without authorization, what will happen if we're investigated later..."
“You’re handling this fairly, so why would the higher-ups investigate? If they do, I’ll cover for you.”
Although Fu Hange was indeed a bit arrogant, what other way was there to keep Meng Shayue in check? If she couldn't get this done tonight, she really would have to kill herself. Besides, she had to make a show of it, didn't she?
As expected, the guards eventually listened to her and said to the guy next to her, "You, arrest him!"
Meng Shayue initially struggled, looking at Fu Hange with sorrowful eyes and saying, "Do you really want to do this?"
“If you don’t interfere with me, we can live in peace. But I can’t stay here forever. I need to get out. I have my own home to go back to. You can call me selfish, but you have no right to interfere with my selfishness.”
This was the last thing Fu Hange said to Meng Shayue. After saying this, he was arrested.
Fu Hange entered the banquet alone, where Jinxiu was still sitting there unharmed.
This relieved Fu Hange of the pressure. She no longer had to keep an eye on Jinxiu like before, and could instead sit there eating melon seeds and enjoying ancient delicacies.
That night, until the final banquet ended, Jinxiu remained unharmed.

When Fu Hange woke up, she found herself lying in the God Space, in the exact same scene as before.
She couldn't help but ask the system, "Have I been dreaming all along?"
【certainly.】
This is incredible!
"Where do dream architects come from?"
"Well, I can recruit people from outside myself. She hasn't left yet, you just can't see her. There's another dream later, you can decide for yourself."
No, no, there's too much information for Fu Hange to process. She said, "Then explain why Meng Shayue said he was coming to protect me, but it turns out he was just here to trick me?"
The system was a bit hesitant. "Well, the Dream Builder said he was going to have him help you, but that would make the task too easy, so he temporarily changed the character settings."
Damn it, Fu Hange knew it would be like this! The system is nothing but a trap, and it even teamed up with the Dream Builder to screw her over!
But that's not important anymore. She continued the system's question, "Then what do you mean by saying that I can choose the last dream myself?"
[You can choose the plane of existence you'd be most reluctant to leave behind, and accompany him throughout his life until his death. Of course, this isn't real; it's just a dream, and he won't recognize you in the dream. He's just the person you know, and you still need to complete the mission.]
