The men whose names were called immediately responded respectfully, "Yes, boss."
After giving them a few more instructions, Xu Jinhuan sent them down the mountain.
She was about to call out to a few constables and give them some instructions when she saw one of them respectfully knock on the door.
"What is it?" Xu Jinhuan asked.
The constable bowed respectfully and said, "Boss Xu, when I was patrolling the courtyard just now, I found a suspicious person. After I arrested her, she started yelling and screaming."
They say she's the female lead, the future prince's consort, and will eventually become empress. We don't know what to do, so we came to ask for your opinion.
Xu Jinhuan nodded, signaling him to bring the person in.
A short while later, a person bound hand and foot, looking like a rice dumpling, was thrown in by the bailiffs.
"Xu Jinhuan, it's all because of you. If it weren't for you, I would have been rescued by Tingjun long ago, become a daughter of the Zuo family, and rightfully become a prince's consort!"
Xu Youyou shouted loudly with a crazed expression, her eyes filled with hatred for Xu Jinhuan.
These days have been absolutely awful. She just doesn't understand why the Xu family, who used to find Xu Jinhuan so agreeable, have suddenly changed their personalities.
If she said a bad word about Xu Jinhuan in front of them, they would beat her, and they would only beat her in the face!
As a result, her already injured face, lacking even medicine, and having gone through such a ordeal, has become completely beyond repair.
If it weren't for what happened last night, she probably would have died of depression, but things are completely different now!
As Xu Youyou thought of this, her eyes seemed to burn with a raging fire, as if she wanted to devour Xu Jinhuan in front of her.
After hearing Xu Youyou's words, Xu Jinhuan raised an eyebrow. Could it be that Heaven saw that the male and female leads couldn't beat him, so it gave them a back door?
Then this back door is meaningless. After all, with Xu Jinhuan's meddling, even if the female lead knew the original course of the story, it had already gone completely astray and couldn't be turned back no matter what.
Xu Jinhuan waved her hand, signaling the constable to leave. She wanted to hear what else Xu Youyou had to say; knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory.
After the constable left, Xu Youyou on the ground sneered, "What? Are you afraid your loyal subordinates will hear what kind of despicable and shameless person your boss is?"
Xu Jinhuan, however, was not angry at all. She walked to Xu Youyou's side with a smile and said, "Do you know what you look like right now? A drowning dog that can only rage helplessly."
Upon hearing this, Xu Youyou reacted as if her tail had been stepped on, shouting angrily, "You're the one who's drowning! I'm the female lead of this book, and this world only exists as long as I live!"
"If I die, Xu Jinhuan, you won't live either, hahaha! Quickly kneel down and beg for forgiveness, and I might let you live a little longer. Otherwise, we'll die together!"
At this point, Xu Youyou thought she had caught Xu Jinhuan red-handed, and laughed wildly.
Xu Youyou had expected to see Xu Jinhuan visibly shocked and even humbly apologize to her.
As a result, Xu Jinhuan on the other side only glanced at her indifferently, his eyes seemingly conveying the meaning of "You're only this good, yet you dare to threaten people."
It was Xu Jinhuan's nonchalant attitude that made Xu Youyou's wild laughter pause, and then grow softer and softer.
"Aren't you afraid?"
Xu Youyou looked at Xu Jinhuan in disbelief, completely unable to understand his thought process. Wouldn't a normal person have some reaction after hearing this?
Xu Jinhuan simply smiled and asked in return, "Who do you think is more afraid of death between the two of us?"
"I..." Xu Youyou answered subconsciously, but as soon as the words left her mouth, she regretted it. Wasn't this just handing the other party a weakness? How could she be so stupid!
Upon hearing this, Xu Jinhuan said calmly, "So, do you dare to commit suicide?"
Xu Youyou forced herself to shake her head and said defiantly, "Hmph, who said I wouldn't dare? Believe me or not, I'll kill myself right now and show you!"
Xu Jinhuan glanced at Xu Youyou indifferently, then extended his hand and said, "Please do as you please. I've never seen anyone commit suicide before, so you can perform it for me."
Xu Youyou was so angry by Xu Jinhuan's words that tears welled up in her eyes. These were not the fake tears she usually shed to elicit sympathy; they were tears of genuine grievance.
"Waaaaah, Xu Jinhuan, you're bullying me!"
Xu Youyou seemed to have found an outlet, and she cried even louder, as if she wanted to express all the unhappiness in her heart.
Xu Jinhuan glanced at Xu Youyou with disdain. No, big sister, is this all your combat power is now? It's not even one level, is it?
Xu Jinhuan rolled her eyes at the crying. Now you know how to cry? What were you thinking before? Why didn't you cry when you bullied others? You just grinned.
"Wang Manshan, take her out of here and make her cry. Don't stop. If she stops crying, beat her until she cries!"
Wang Manshan had been waiting in the courtyard. Upon hearing Xu Jinhuan's call, he immediately went in respectfully and, ignoring Xu Youyou's struggles, dragged her into the courtyard.
Xu Jinhuan thought for a moment and then said to Wang Manshan, "After you've dealt with Xu Youyou, call Xie Guangbai over."
Wang Manshan nodded, "Okay, boss."
After replying to Xu Jin, he turned around and pulled Xu Youyou outside.
[Host, aren't you worried that Xu Youyou might really commit suicide? What should we do if she does what she says? Maybe I should go back to the Main God Space to borrow some items!]
After Xiao Wang and the others left, he asked in confusion.
Xu Jinhuan smiled and took a sip of tea, inwardly lamenting that his little system was still too naive.
"If the world collapses when a female lead dies, then the Heavenly Dao is utterly useless. Besides, there's still a male lead who hasn't died yet. If only one of the male or female leads dies, it's not a big problem."
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, she lowered her eyes and blew on the tea in her hand. If Xu Youyou couldn't bear it and committed suicide, then it would have nothing to do with her, and the Heavenly Dao would not punish her!
Xu Jinhuan's mind was racing with calculations, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Speaking of the Heavenly Dao, why hasn't she received any notification that her previous tasks have been completed? She can't wait to get the protagonist's halo as a reward!
Just as Xu Jinhuan was thinking this, the long-awaited system announcement finally sounded.
[Beep beep, congratulations host for completing the S-level hidden mission: Rescue the impoverished people of the capital city affected by the flood.]
Because the host performed exceptionally well, a quarter of the protagonist's halo is now awarded as a reward.
[Ding ding, congratulations host for completing the hidden mission of ensuring food security in the capital, successfully destroying Long Wangcai's underground black workshop and exposing it to the public.]
The host is now rewarded with the gratitude of the people of the capital and 1000 system points.
"What a pleasant sound!" Xu Jinhuan looked at his mission reward with great satisfaction.
She then said to the system, "Xiao Wang, just deduct the points I owe you from my account."
System Xiao Wang was also very happy.
【Alright, host, then I won't stand on ceremony.】
Xu Jinhuan was helpless. This silly child, how could it, a creditor who lends out points, be more polite than her, the one who owes her money?
"Master, did you need something from me?" Xie Guangbai knocked on the door and walked in respectfully.
