TFWYH – Chapter 599 Sheng Zida Mountain

“Oh! This can be considered a type of gu worm.”

“A type of gu worm?”

“Mm!”

Mu Qingfeng picked up the pure white porcelain bottle and said, “This is a gu I developed myself. I don’t even know what to call it yet—a new species. Once it enters a person’s body, it doesn’t harm them. It just makes them feel hungry all the time, constantly wanting to eat.”

Wow.

Tang Wan’s eyes flickered as if she had thought of something. She rolled her eyes slightly and asked, “If someone keeps eating like that… will they gain weight?”

Mu Qingfeng rolled his eyes. “Obviously they will! It basically blocks the sense of fullness—like what you’d call… some kind of satiety nerve, I guess.”

Tang Wan: (O_O)!

This is good!

This is very good!

She had been overweight before, so she deeply understood the suffering of being fat.

Alright!

This is the one!

Tang Wan immediately grabbed the white porcelain bottle. “I’ll take this one!”

Mu Qingfeng frowned. “Just this? It doesn’t even cause pain!”

“You don’t get it.” You’ve never been fat—you don’t know how miserable it is for a woman.

Compared to physical harm, this kind of psychological torment is far more effective!

“Just eat it directly?”

“Yes. The worms are tiny—hard to detect.”

“Oh!” Not being detected was perfect. Absolutely perfect.

Tang Wan took the small porcelain bottle and went to find Qiuwen.

As Gu Yanshuang’s chief nanny, planting a gu worm would be easy, right?

Qiuwen… was on the verge of collapse.

Putting a gu worm into Gu Yanshuang?

Wasn’t that… a bit inappropriate?

But Tang Wan was firm—and even started threatening her.

Qiuwen touched her still-swollen fingers and shamefully gave in.

Forget it!

Better a dead friend than a dead me. She never wanted to go through finger-pricking torture again.

More importantly… she found herself strangely looking forward to seeing Gu Yanshuang become fat.

Just imagining that scene made her want to laugh.

In the end, Qiuwen left with the small porcelain bottle, patting her chest as she promised everything would be handled—no problem at all.

Tang Wan watched her departing figure suspiciously and quietly asked Jiang Shi, “Mother, isn’t she Gu Yanshuang’s person? Why do I feel like she actually wants Gu Yanshuang to suffer?”

“Your elder sister is arrogant and tyrannical, willing to do anything to achieve her goals. She has offended many people—there are plenty who can’t stand her,” Jiang Shi said with a cold smile. Then, seeing Tang Wan deep in thought, she sighed and added earnestly, “Wan’er, remember this—servants are people too. Everyone has a heart of flesh. No matter how high you rise in the future, don’t forget your original intentions.”

“Oh… got it.” Tang Wan nodded, half understanding.

She didn’t really grasp the idea of “original intentions,” but agreeing was the safest choice.

Jiang Shi couldn’t help but laugh softly at her simple-minded look.

Just then, Ling Yue ran in. “Mother, Sister-in-law—look who’s here!”

Jiang Shi and Tang Wan looked up to see Ling Yue bringing in two young men.

“Shengzi, Dashan! Oh my… you two children—how could you secretly run off to join the army without telling your families? That’s really unacceptable…” Jiang Shi was delighted, but thinking of her sister-in-law and close friend back in Xiangxi Town, she couldn’t help but scold them.

Ling Sheng and Li Dashan exchanged a glance and smiled awkwardly, scratching the backs of their heads.

After some time apart, both of them had gotten at least two shades darker and looked much sturdier.

Especially Ling Sheng—he had grown taller as well.

More importantly, even in casual clothes, the iron-blooded aura of soldiers had begun to show.

Ling Sheng grinned. “Second Aunt, don’t scold us—we haven’t even eaten yet. We’re starving!”
