Chapter 40: I Really Saw It
Her head was spinning from the alcohol, and her eyes, which she tried to open, were covered by a warm hand. Qi Shaoyou felt as if she were being fed something.
It smells of peach and is soft like a cream cake. No, it's not as creamy as a cake; it's more watery and smoother.
However, what she tasted did have something in common with cream cakes: a rich, milky flavor.
The only drawback was that there were always subtle noises in her ears.
Who is she? She is the princess's consort, and tonight is her wedding night. All other memories have faded, but the days of being her consort begin to resurface in her mind.
With a "pop," Qi Shaoyou released the peach fragrance from her mouth. She opened her eyes, and those dark blue eyes were different from usual.
Shen Mingjiao had initially suppressed Qi Shaoyou, but then she looked at the man whose gaze had suddenly changed. Indeed, these were the eyes of her future husband.
"It's been a long time, my prince consort." Shen Mingjiao's voice carried seven parts love and three parts hatred.
"Your Majesty was wrong." Qi Shaoyou's calm and restrained demeanor was exactly what Shen Mingjiao loved most, and it was also the way he would storm into the capital.
"Lord Qi can admit his mistakes? What mistakes has Lord Qi made?" Shen Mingjiao's eyes were filled with resentment, and her words were anything but pleasant. If she could, her hand would be on Qi Shaoyou's neck right now.
"The mistake was in letting the princess do it herself." Qi Shaoyou's words had barely left his lips when he pressed them against Shen Mingjiao's right shoulder.
"How dare you! Without my permission, how dare the prince consort defy me?" Shen Mingjiao's expression changed, and her cold face became even more charming.
"It was my fault, Your Highness, please do not forgive me."
“Whatever the mistake, Princess, you must calculate it carefully and not miss a single detail.” Qi Shaoyou said as he kissed the lips that were uttering malicious words.
0527, who was just released because Qi Shaoyou lost consciousness: ...Was her boss always this wild?
However, looking at the position of the boss's hand, 0527 knew that if she didn't think of a way to get the boss up tomorrow...
She's definitely going to get beaten up by the big boss.
After searching through all the system buttons, 0527 finally pressed the brake on this dream.
She survived another day; she really is an amazing system!
Putting everything else aside, if this matter continues, the big shots will have to avoid Miss from now on.
Although she was restricted by the Jinjiang (a Chinese online literature platform) settings within the system, she still managed to see the skin on the young lady's shoulder.
Fair and smooth as jade, it looks wonderful to the touch. 0527 hereby scorns the main system for having nothing better to do than install the blocking settings for Jinjiang!
She saw nothing but a white mosaic! She cursed the main system, wishing it would never eat as well as she did!
0527 was in great pain, and Qi Shaoyou was in great pain when she woke up in the morning. She felt like she had been beaten up all over.
There was one thing, though: she seemed to taste peach-flavored milk in her mouth. She didn't seem to have drunk anything unusual before bed, Qi Shaoyou carefully recalled what had happened last night.
Three seconds later, Qi Shaoyou was shocked.
After seeing the boss break down, 0527 slowly recounted what she had seen when she was released last night.
Very well, Qi Shaoyou isn't just shocked this time; she's completely bewildered.
This confusion lasted until Qi Shaoyou was having breakfast.
Seeing that she was absent-minded all morning, Liang Man picked up a soup spoon and served Qi Shaoyou a bowl of soup.
Qi Shaoyou took the soup without checking if it was too hot to handle, and prepared to drink it.
Liang Man sighed and stopped her hand.
"It's still hot, aren't you afraid of burning your little cat's tongue?" Sister Manman's voice was as doting as ever.
There was no blame in her tone, only helplessness.
"I'm sorry." Qi Shaoyou put down the bowl in his hand, his face flushed.
"Why are you apologizing? You're the one who got burned, not me."
"You seem so distracted. Do you know who I'm going to see today?" As soon as Liang Man said this, Qi Shaoyou's mind immediately snapped back to normal.
"Who is Sister Manman going to see?"
"You didn't know that? Should I tell you?" Liang Man said, her tone shifting three times, clearly teasing her intentionally.
"Sister Manman, please tell me!" Qi Shaoyou knew that if Sister Manman was going to tell him, it must be because the person she met was related to him.
"Go see Shen Mingjiao's mother."
A simple sentence sent a shockwave through Qi Shaoyou's eyes. Could she possibly choose not to know now?
Time, please turn back!
"Does Sister Manman want to discuss something with Shen's mother?" Qi Shaoyou took a deep breath. She didn't really want to mention the name "Miao" in front of Sister Manman right now.
"It's not really a discussion, I just feel that your relationship with this classmate Shen isn't urgent."
"Besides, there should be an elder to explain those things to you." Liang Man knew very well how much self-interest she had in asking Fang Yuan to contact the other party.
"Thank you, Sister Manman." A fool was so moved that tears welled up in his eyes, and he secretly made a vow in his heart.
She is determined to reduce Sister Manman's level of corruption; she will work hard to do so!
0527, who often sees the big shots working hard only to have their efforts go to waste, oh well, as long as the big shots are happy. It's not the first time.
"Would you like to come with me?" Liang Man smiled and extended a tentative branch.
"No!" Qi Shaoyou shook his head so hard it looked like a rattle drum.
How awkward! She went there, but she didn't know what to say!
She was genuinely grateful to Sister Manman for helping her with these matters; she really didn't want to see the young lady's mother on ordinary days.
If you do something wrong the night before, you'll be even less inclined to do it the next morning...
That scene was too hellish for her.
"Okay, you can rest well at home." Liang Man saw that the soup was almost cold, so she pushed the soup bowl back to Qi Shaoyou's side.
[It's gone down! Sister Manman's blackening value has dropped!] 0527 was overjoyed as he looked at the data, and Qi Shaoyou drank his soup to hide his smile.
[How much has it dropped! I knew pretending to be obedient would work!]
The sound faded at 0527.
[It dropped by 1.]
Qi Shaoyou's lips, which had just been upturned, immediately fell shut. She wanted to beat 0527 with the soup bowl!
Hiding in the corner, 0527 only dared to whisper at this moment.
Even a drop of 1 is still 1; at least it's not 0.
Before Qi Shaoyou could launch a powerful attack on 0527, Liang Man had already collected the dishes and was preparing to leave.
"You said the ice cream was really delicious last time, so I happened to bring you a box this time, okay?" Liang Man said softly, watching the child's eyes gradually brighten.
That ice cream wasn't hard to buy, but Qi Shaoyou once had a stomachache in the middle of the night and almost had to be taken to the hospital.
After that, Sister Manman strictly controlled the consumption of raw and cold foods.
Upon hearing that she could eat ice cream, Qi Shaoyou's eyes lit up.
She nodded vigorously; the jasmine-flavored ice cream was excellent. At first taste, it almost tasted like Sister Manman's pheromones.
"Little glutton." Liang Man tapped Qi Shaoyou's nose, a doting smile on her lips.
[Is this the charm of a mature woman? Sister Manman, look at me!] 0527 was captivated and started her daily crazy antics.
Qi Shaoyou blushed as well; she was completely defenseless at the moment.
"Sister Manman, come back soon!"
Liang Man nodded, grabbed her bag, and went out the door.
When Liang Man arrived, Xuan Feng was already in the private room.
"Hello, I am Xuan Feng, Shen Mingjiao's mother." The woman was very polite, and Liang Man politely shook her hand in return.
They shook hands politely for a short while and then sat down.
In an instant, Liang Man knew that Xuan Feng was an omega like herself. Judging from her mother's appearance, her daughter would definitely be very beautiful as well.
Liang Man smiled slightly and ordered a truffle coffee.
Xuan Feng had no intention of playing games with the person in front of her. She took a sip of her coffee and then directly stated her purpose.
"The advertising issue was something Mingjiao's mother didn't consider thoroughly. I've come here today to ask you to stop the two children's marriage."
Xuan Feng seemed to have a headache, which piqued Liang Man's interest.
The information she received from Fang Yuan was not what Xuan Feng was saying.
A test?
"Shaoyou is a good girl, and she's the only remaining family member of my old friend. In any case, I will not use her to exchange for any endorsements."
Liang Man picked up the coffee that had just been served, took a small sip, and put it down.
"As for the marriage you mentioned, I'm completely clueless about it." This statement didn't sound very friendly.
Xuan Feng looked embarrassed, knowing that her words were rather abrupt.
However, there are still two things at home that are truly beyond repair.
"Miss Qi is naturally very good. As for the marriage, it's just that my daughter is being too persistent."
“My wife always spoils her when it comes to the children, and I don’t want the two children to have a basic understanding of each other…”
Xuan Feng was interrupted by Liang Man when he finished speaking.
"Miss Xuan, do you look down on Shao You?" Liang Man was in a bad mood today, but she still maintained a calm smile on her face.
However, she was running out of patience.
Liang Man didn't want to see Qi Shaoyou marry this Miss Shen more than anyone else.
However, she also wouldn't allow anyone to say anything bad about Qi Shaoyou.
"Of course not, fine, I won't hide it anymore." Xuan Feng felt a headache coming on; ever since Jiao Jiao woke up, she had become increasingly spoiled.
Shen Mingjiao seemed like a completely different person these past few days, which made Xuan Feng uneasy. Her daughter's obsession with Qi Shaoyou was too strong.
It wouldn't be good if you hurt two people because of your obsession.
That's why Xuan Feng is sitting here.
“Miss Xuan is right. Then let’s discuss it.” Liang Man’s smile deepened and became more sincere.
Completely unaware of the situation, Qi Shaoyou was discussing with 0527 how she should escape if she dreamed about it again tonight.
With all these functions enabled, I refuse to believe I can fall for the judgment system's tricks tonight!
Following the expert's instructions, 0527 worked up a sweat.
Just as it was finally finished, 0527 sent a message.
As long as it's not Sister Manman's dream, our protective measures should be fine.
That night, Qi Shaoyou looked at his head full of white hair, clearly indicating that he had been possessed by a demon.
She'll shut 0527 up sooner or later!

Qi Shaoyou: So you changed the cover to show everyone what it looks like when I'm possessed by a demon?
Author: No, it's just that this cover is absolutely gorgeous. I originally had another one, thinking I'd switch them up once it made it onto the cover charts, so you can be all dolled up!
