Liu Yu's belly was also fertile; she gave birth to two sons and a daughter for Tian Shenhua in just three years after their marriage. Tian Shenhua was so happy that he would smile at everyone he met, and he also paid more attention to He Yiyi, his adopted daughter.
To avoid being recognized by influential figures and facing certain death, the Chunxi Troupe dared not go to the capital again. They lived a comfortable life performing in small towns and villages. However, fate intervened. After arriving in Fu'an County, Zhao Hong, the eldest son of the county magistrate, took a liking to He Yiyi.
Having traveled extensively with her adoptive parents since childhood, He Yiyi was well-informed and could easily see what kind of person Zhao Hong was. Knowing he was not a good match, how could she give him her heart?
Unexpectedly, Zhao Hong completely disregarded He Yiyi's refusal and instead took the opportunity to force himself on her! He Yiyi was heartbroken and devastated by this ordeal.
In such an era, women's status was already lower than men's, not to mention that she was doing the same lowly jobs as some men. If she were still a virgin, it would be fine, but unfortunately, she didn't even have that last shred of decency left.
He Yiyi's adoptive mother, Liu Yu, doted on her. Upon hearing this devastating news, she fainted on the spot and her health deteriorated day by day. Before anyone could seek justice for He Yiyi, she passed away.
The End!
Lu Qingyan was speechless: "Is that all? Is it going to be another bad ending?"
“Uh—” The system licked its paws: “This story was originally just the author’s perverse sense of humor. The synopsis only lists the names of the male and female leads.”
"Where is the male lead?" The story ends before the male lead even appears.
"So we can only say that the female lead of this story is He Yiyi, and the male lead is Zhao Hong."
Lu Qingyan couldn't help but shudder, goosebumps rising all over her body. She glanced at Zhao Hong on the ground—was this the male lead? She turned away and gagged for a while.
"Master, he's just a backup male lead. It's because the real male lead didn't appear that he became a background character. You just need to focus on completing your mission now."
Task issued:
Main mission: To prevent the original owner's tragedy from repeating itself, and to exonerate the He family.
Side Quest: Flirt with your crush, Xiao Liuchen. Achieving a 75% or higher favorability rating is required to pass. (Optional)
Wait, where did the word "can be abandoned" come from? The system was completely baffled; how come it didn't know that side quests could be abandoned?
No, Master can't abandon the side quest. If the male master finds out, I'm doomed.
The system was so anxious it was scratching its head, but couldn't explain it clearly in a short time. All it could do was stare at Lu Qingyan with its adorable eyes, stretch out its short legs and hug Lu Qingyan's ankles, meowing "meow" over and over again, making it so cute that you just wanted to hug it and never let go.
Lu Qingyan pinched the system's ear: "Alright, I'll accept both tasks."
Lu Qingyan guessed that Xiao Liuchen was originally the male lead, but suddenly became a background character, and was also the male god she needed to flirt with. Could he be her love interest?
Seeing that Lu Qingyan had agreed, the system happily called out a few more times.
"Yiyi, Yiyi!" An anxious voice called from outside the door. A kind-looking middle-aged man burst through the door and rushed to Lu Qingyan's side: "Yiyi, are you alright? Did that beast do anything to you? Tell your father where you are hurt, and I'll take you to see a doctor right away."
Seeing Ueda Shinwa's concerned gaze, Lu Qingyan smiled and said, "Father, I'm fine. It's just that I knocked Young Master Zhao unconscious. When he wakes up, our Chunxi Troupe will probably be in trouble. Fortunately, it's just getting dark. If we hurry up and leave, we still have a chance to escape. Once we leave Fu'an County, we won't be afraid of them anymore."
Tian Shenhua nodded: "Yiyi is right, we need to hurry. But the world is so big, I don't know where to go."
