Zhou Mengya originally planned to send the Heavenly Dao back before going to see the Demon Lord.
But the maid persisted, saying that the Demon Lord had urgent business to discuss with her.
What could be so important?
Suppressing her displeasure, Zhou Mengya had no choice but to take Tiandao to the Demon Lord's palace to find someone.
She used to be very patient with the Demon Lord, but ever since that cunning old man's favorability rating reached 50%, it has stopped increasing. Zhou Mengya has also become too lazy to continue dealing with him, as he is of no help to her at all.
But being deep within the Demon Lord's territory, she couldn't easily break off relations.
However, this trip brought her unexpected gains.
Outside the Demon Lord's palace stood a boy and a girl.
The boy's face was stern and serious, while the girl's eyes were red and swollen from crying. She was being held by two guards, seemingly about to be taken away. She struggled and cried to the boy, "Brother! Don't listen to that Demon Lord! He uses Father as a pawn, and now he wants to mold you into his pawn too! To make you work for him!!!"
“Even if Father is gone, we don’t need him! We can find Mother ourselves! I will go with you to find Mother…”
The girl cried her eyes out, but the boy showed no sign of backing down.
He simply watched as the girl was led away by the guards, and finally spoke: "Lin Qi, the Demon Lord has not taken a liking to you."
She doesn't need to suffer with him; once he grows up, he can bring his mother back on his own.
Zhou Mengya raised an eyebrow and asked the maid beside her with feigned curiosity, "Those are... the two children left behind by Lord Tianmo."
The maid who led the way simply nodded and said nothing more.
When Zhou Mengya saw the system notification that a new target had been identified, she smiled and said, "How pitiful. How can a mother abandon her own child?"
"If you can't give your child a good life, why were you so selfish as to bring them into this world to suffer?"
Although the Demon Lord forbade it to be made public, Zhou Mengya, as a saintess, still knew some of the inside information.
That stupid woman, Lan Yan, abandoned her good partner and child, and conspired with that chosen one to kill her husband and abandon her child. In the end, she fled the Demon Realm like a stray dog.
She's completely lost her mind, ruining her own life. I don't know what she's trying to achieve.
But coincidentally, she managed to snag a bargain.
"Shut up! You're not allowed to slander my mother like that!" The boy turned his head with a grim expression after hearing Zhou Mengya's words, his eyes filled with murderous intent!
Just as the boy turned his head, the smile on Zhou Mengya's lips vanished.
She wasn't intimidated by the boy's imposing manner; instead, she persisted with her opinion, saying, "You know perfectly well that it's her fault, don't you?"
"I……"
“Since it’s her fault, you should make her realize her mistake after you find her, so as to resolve your inner conflict.” Children’s thoughts are easy to understand. After pointing out the boy’s inner conflict, Zhou Mengya patiently guided him, “But perhaps she will never realize her mistake and will leave you and your sister again. But at that time, you should also realize that you don’t need an incompetent mother!”
To deal with a target who already has a crush on someone else, you must first make him hate that crush before he can accept other people.
Zhou Mengya is very good at this.
The mother and the white moonlight are quite similar. In fact, it's obvious at a glance that this is a child who lacks love. As long as you shamelessly try to win her over a few more times, it should be easy to increase her affection level.
"No! I will never make the same mistake my mother made!"—abandoning them!
The boy angrily retorted, unable to accept it.
But he realized something as soon as he finished speaking.
Zhou Mengya immediately said, "Look, you clearly know perfectly well that it's her fault..."
This time, the boy didn't argue, but ran away as if fleeing.
This put Zhou Mengya in a good mood; it seemed that winning him over was only a matter of time.
