Now reading: Chapter 624 - 253: System Calls Me to Save the Day (Part 10) from The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly, a Romance novel by Selina.

Caught in bed by his wife, Mrs. Cao, the mother-in-law, instead of consoling her daughter-in-law, actually blad her for being a hen that couldn’t lay eggs.

What kind of nonsense is that?

Qiao Zhenbang, being the male lead, had indeed lost his way a bit in the past couple of years due to indulgence, but he still kept to his basic principles and bottom lines.

As a man himself, he truly despised the conduct of the Cao family.

Especially Cao Changsheng—you literally have neither money nor power, and you usually rely on your father-in-law’s connections to hold a position in the factory, yet you have the audacity to find a mistress?!

And you did it anyway, at least find soone from outside.

Even rabbits don’t eat the grass near their burrows; damn, you’re even worse than a rabbit!

Zhenbang had very little respect for the Cao family’s way of doing things, and he deeply sympathized with Qian Xiue.

Oh, this foolish woman, having witnessed her husband’s betrayal and being insulted by her mother-in-law as a "hen that couldn’t lay eggs," she couldn’t cope and secretly hanged herself in the sanitation facility.

Logically speaking, incidents like a wife committing suicide weren’t too rare in the countryside and small towns.

Every couple of years, there would always be a woman who jumped into a well, drank pesticide, or hanged herself.

But what made Qian Xiue’s case widely talked about in the small town, even reaching Zhenbang who had long left his hotown to seek a livelihood in the South, was the bizarre nature of her death.

She didn’t hang herself from a beam or a door fra; she used her belt to tie herself to a coat hook and strangled herself to death.

Afterward, many people went to see it; it was just a very ordinary hook, typically used for hanging clothes or backpacks.

It seed like such a trivial thing that any strong young man could easily break it with a pull.

And yet Qian Xiue, weighing over a hundred and thirty pounds, died on such a trivial hook.

"It really confirms that old saying, ’King Yan can’t save a ghost destined to die!’"

"So people can’t die even with a thick hemp rope, so how did Qian’s daughter just get killed by a small hook?"

"This was her destined tribulation; no one could have saved her!"

"...Indeed, it’s so pitiful. Old Qian and his wife had only this one daughter; they indeed made that scoundrel son-in-law lose his job and his house, forcing him to slink back to his hotown, but what of it?"

It was precisely Qian Xiue’s manner of death that made her a long-lasting topic in the town and surrounding areas.

Any discussion related to death would invariably ntion her.

As a male lead with principles and a baseline, Zhenbang did want to use Qian Xiue’s situation to test the "past lives" in his mind.

But watching a woman take her own life so easily was sothing he just could not do.

So Zhenbang began to secretly track Qian Xiue, because, timing-wise, her husband was about to fool around with the cousin.

And Xiue’s ti of death was at the end of the month.

"Thankfully, Qian Xiue chose the sanitation facility to die. When the ti cos, I can stand outside the sanitation facility, and if I hear anything amiss, I can rush in and save her!"

Zhenbang whispered this to himself.

Moreover, he wanted to see if Qian Xiue would receive a "dream warning."

If there really was a grave injustice and God decided to intervene, perhaps Qian Xiue might just have a dream.

As long as Zhenbang kept tracking Qian Xiue, he would be able to detect any abnormality.

"...Truly fitting of a male lead, though he has beco a bit lazy, he hasn’t lost his basic decency and kindness!"

After hearing Student Xiao D’s real-ti update, He Tiantian couldn’t help but quietly praise him.

Since he was still reliable, He Tiantian decided to pull him back.

Not letting him continue to stray further on the wrong path and completely lose himself!

He Tiantian thought this to herself, but she didn’t stop her actions.

This ti, she didn’t use the Dream Creation Space, although she still had two opportunities to create dreams, but He Tiantian wanted to shatter the illusion of "dream warnings."

She wrote down all the secrets she knew in a letter and mailed it directly to Mrs. Qian.

Ironically, in an attempt to tily warn Qian Xiue, He Tiantian had asked Student Xiao D to monitor Mrs Cao, Cousin Cao, and others.

It turned out that Student Xiao D indeed overheard an even more bizarre story.

Now knowing the truth, He Tiantian quickly changed her plans, trying to make the whole affair more logical and completely unrelated to dreams.

A week later, Zhenbang was tracking Qian Xiue while silently counting the days—

The ti was nearly up!

The end of the month was approaching, and Qian Xiue was about to stumble upon her husband and cousin’s disgraceful act.

Zhenbang wasn’t sure of the exact day; he just had to follow day by day.

As the month’s end drew near, he even started to camp directly outside their house.

But after several continuous days of surveillance, even though the thirtieth had passed, there was no commotion in the Cao family.

Zhenbang:...What’s happening? This isn’t the sa as my "past life."

Not giving up, Zhenbang continued to stake out the Cao house for another week.

Finally, one day, the Cao house erupted in chaos.

But it wasn’t Qian Xiue catching the cheaters. Instead, a bunch of people burst in: "Where’s my son, where’s my son?"

"Bullshit, what your son? Changsheng is clearly my son!"

Zhenbang:...Isn’t this supposed to be about the Phoenix Man betraying his wife? How did it suddenly turn into a "Crown Prince in disguise" scenario?!
