Also, she was a bit surprised. The female lead really has a wide range of interests—from dogs to birds. Has Li Tingting recently become obsessed with “raising animals”?
Except that, other people’s animals are real animals. Li Tingting’s…
She’s into human-animal romance!
【Has she recently been reading some human-animal romance novels or comics? Otherwise, why would she suddenly be so fixated on raising animals?】
【She has indeed been reading novels of that type recently…】
【I knew it. When I read this kind of novel, it’s just a hobby.】
【Her love for this type of novel is also a ‘hobby’.】
【Except my hobby is fantasy, and her hobby is ‘practical’!】
【Well, that’s… impressive!】
Ruan Yaoyao couldn’t help but feel a little impressed. Li Tingting really dared to think big.
Doesn’t she think she’s a little perverted?
Probably doesn’t think so, otherwise this wouldn’t have happened.
“Do you want to consider… giving her some different novels?” Ruan Yaoyao said. “If it keeps going like this, personally, I think someone might not be able to handle it.”
As for who might not be able to handle it, she didn’t elaborate—maybe it’s the person turned into an animal, or maybe it’s official daddy.
Just thinking about it was enough. A perfectly practical, diligent tool person suddenly transformed by Li Tingting into an amnesiac animal—Ruan Yaoyao couldn’t help but wonder: 【Does Heaven have a grudge against official daddy?】
【Otherwise, why do this? Aren’t you afraid official daddy would collapse?】
【There shouldn’t be any scientists or high-ranking generals involved here, right? Otherwise…】
Ruan Yaoyao shivered, not daring to imagine further.
Liang Shishi, who had been called in temporarily but hadn’t appeared, thought: You call that “not daring to imagine”? Stop imagining, or we really won’t hold up!
Am I the one who dares to imagine?
Clearly Li Tingting dares more than I do.
The bird situation didn’t require Ruan Yaoyao to intervene. The national team quickly sent her files to identify who was possessing this five-colored macaw.
Thanks to the photos, it was easy to tell. Ruan Yaoyao immediately recognized the soul inside the bird’s body—Shi Wenqin, young master of the Shi family, who had been in another estate for recuperation due to poor health since childhood.
Since the Shi family didn’t know how long he could live, he was rarely shown in public. Few outsiders even knew the Shi family had a young master named Shi Wenqin.
“He looks quite sunny and handsome. How come his health is so poor? What a shame.”
Ruan Yaoyao looked at Shi Wenqin’s photo and sighed.
【Such a handsome young man yet destined not to live long. Fate really toys with people.】
【His parents must be worried sick!】
Yu Xiangqiao peeked over and said, “Shi family? Could it be Shi Yanli’s sickly cousin?”
“You know him?”
“Yes, Shi Yanli and I were classmates. After college, we went our separate ways and rarely kept in touch. I only know that her eldest uncle’s family has a cousin who’s very ill—I’m not sure if he can survive—but I don’t know if it’s Shi Wenqin.”
“What a coincidence. We were just thinking about how to get close to the Shi family. Since you know him, could you help contact them?”
【Hehe! I’ll get some gossip too!】
【Ruan Yaoyao thought: Nothing beats getting close-up gossip!】
“Alright, then I’ll find an excuse to contact an old classmate.” Yu Xiangqiao was eager—last time, she missed out on the gossip about Xie Xiumin because she didn’t know anyone; only the official daddy and mother-in-law attended, leaving her with second-hand news.
This time it’s different. She knows someone personally—she gets first-hand gossip, hehe…
She also sent a message in the group to make everyone “jealous.”
Xu Lianghan, Xu Chengyan, Ru Anzhi, Yun Jinxian, Liang Shishi: “……” Is that necessary?
Yu Xiangqiao: Of course! I want first-hand gossip, what’s it to you? If you can, get it yourselves!
Unable to, Xu Lianghan, Xu Chengyan, Ru Anzhi, Yun Jinxian, Liang Shishi: “……”
They didn’t want first-hand gossip?
Xu Lianghan: Remember to livestream!
Yu Xiangqiao: Go away!!
Xu Lianghan: Honey, I love you, muah, you’re the best~
Yu Xiangqiao: You just say it?
Xu Lianghan: Xiang family has released a new bag; I’ll have it sent to you immediately.
Yu Xiangqiao: That’s more like it!
…
Others: “……”
You’re overloading us with PDA, can someone stop them?
Group leader? Oh, the group leader is Xu Lianghan himself—never mind then.
Disperse.
——
Yu Xiangqiao arranged a coffee meeting.
Upon arrival, Shi Yanli was already there, looking a little haggard—clearly something had happened.
“You okay?”
Shi Yanli shook her head. Seeing Yu Xiangqiao brought someone along, she asked, “Who is this…”
“Oh, I forgot to introduce. This is my mother-in-law, Ruan Yaoyao. You can call her Aunt Xu or Aunt Ruan.”
“Hello, Aunt Ruan!” Shi Yanli was confused. She didn’t understand why an old classmate had to bring her mother-in-law. However, the mother-in-law was well-preserved—worth learning from in the future.
“Hello! Sorry to bother you in this heat,” Ruan Yaoyao smiled but kept her eyes on the tag above Shi Yanli’s head.
【Ah, so she’s a female cannon fodder!】
【Geez… she really has a rough time!】
Shi Yanli was puzzled: Rough time? What does that mean?!
Yu Xiangqiao was surprised too. Wait, this is about an old classmate? Isn’t it Shi Wenqin?
【“Recognizing Love for the Sickly, Spoiled by Mr. Xiao Since Childhood”? This Mr. Xiao—could it be Shi Wenqin?】
Ruan Yaoyao hurriedly checked the details page. What she saw was jaw-dropping.
【Good grief! Shi Wenqin won’t die now, but his entire family is doomed!】
【Eldest cousin died in a plane crash, second cousin had a car accident while taking the eldest uncle and aunt to the hospital—total disaster. Third sister, grief-stricken, accidentally poisoned herself with wrong medicine due to insomnia…】
【Also, even if the previous ones survived, with Shi Wenqin’s weak body, his family couldn’t let him endure it.】
【No wonder Shi Yanli thinks Li Tingting is a jinx—every time she appears, the eldest uncle’s family suffers. She’s always frustrated with Li Tingting.】
【Poor Shi Yanli—you have no idea who you’re up against. If it were someone else, it’d be one thing. But you’re up against Heaven’s favorite daughter. Now she’s a female cannon fodder, right?】
【Your dad fell in love with his first crush, your mom jumped from anger, your second brother and third brother fell for Li Tingting, opposing you every day…】
【Uh… your dad’s first love is even linked to Li Tingting…】
【I only knew my third son was a villainous BOSS, easy to attract trouble. But after Shi Wenqin attracted attention, it got even worse.】
【This whole family—no one has a good ending.】
To Shi Yanli, Ruan Yaoyao sounded crazy. Who curses someone’s entire family upon first meeting? Her face changed instantly, ready to snap.
Before she could stand up, Yu Xiangqiao quickly covered her mouth, smiling politely while saying to Ruan Yaoyao: “Mom, Yanli and I need to step aside for a private chat. We’ll talk in a bit… later…”
She signaled the bodyguard to help escort Shi Yanli away.
“Oh… you go ahead!” Ruan Yaoyao’s mind was still buzzing with gossip. She wondered whether Shi Wenqin or her son had it worse.
【One is destined to be ‘deceived, seduced, emotionally manipulated, and have their family wiped out’—body and heart tormented. The other, although the female lead wiped out his whole family, truly has genuine feelings for him.】
【Comparatively, it seems my son has it worse!】
【I just don’t know—if Shi Wenqin ever escaped the female lead’s control, how would he react?】
【Crying uncontrollably, or acting like nothing happened?】
