In order to save her life, Qin Qingqing grabbed a handful of fruit candies for her adopted son.

　　The fruit candies were stuffed into his palms…

　　She realized it later: Damn it! Her character has collapsed!

　　Her legs went limp and she fell onto the seat with a thump.

　　but……

　　I didn’t have the mood to care whether I was hurt or not.

　　Her face was gloomy, and her mind was full of the system’s “electric shock punishment” – it was all over, she had destroyed the original character in front of the target of the task… This task 1, I’m afraid it’s useless, right?

　　[bite–]

　　[Congratulations to the host for successfully speaking the required plot lines and completing the main plot mission 1.]

　　[Get pension of 100,000~]

　　An abrupt system sound.

　　But Qin was stunned for a moment——

　　[What?]

　　[Ahem, congratulations to the host for completing the mission.]

　　[This is the host’s first mission. Although it has some minor flaws, it has said all the necessary lines. It’s not bad.]

　　In her mind, the system gave her encouragement with its cold mechanical voice…

　　[I hope you will continue to work hard in the future~]

　　Qin twitched the corners of his lips slightly.

　　[I was asking about the “pension” part…]

　　[Oh, as a conscientious system, I will not let the host work for nothing.]

　　[As long as the host concentrates on completing the story missions, I will exchange the corresponding amount of world currency for you…]

　　The system opened coldly——

　　Of course, it will not tell the host that the “pension” issue was adjusted after it retrieved the meaning of “Zhou Pa Pi” that the host had said before.

　　It is not the evil landlord named Zhou!

　　[You still have a conscience~]

　　Qin Qingqing listened to the system’s explanation and understood it almost instantly –

　　It turns out that as long as she completes the prescribed plot, she will not be restricted by the system!

　　You can also earn a pension at the same time!

　　She was in a good mood immediately!

　　but–

　　When she looked up, she saw Lu Liye standing there holding a candy.

　　Perhaps influenced by his good mood, the violent eldest son was not so scary in Qin Qingqing’s eyes…

　　She curved her eyes with a smile.

　　Reach out again…

　　Grabbed a handful of sweet fudge.

　　”Don’t you like fruit candies? Then this is good to fill your stomach…”

　　She hasn’t finished her words yet.

　　she was stopped by Lu Liye’s killing look.

　　There was clear sarcasm in Lu Liye’s eyes.

　　He stretched out his hand, opened it——

　　The fruit candy in the palm of his hand fell to the ground with a “clatter”.

　　”Oh……”

　　He sneered.

　　“…”

　　Qin shrank her neck slightly and gradually restrained the smile on her lips.

　　Then I heard him say——

　　”Why do you have to say these inexplicable words?”

　　”Don’t you just want to starve me for another five days?”

　　”knew……”

　　He dropped this sentence.

　　Then he turned and went upstairs——

　　He has a complete attitude of “accepting whatever comes his way”.

　　But in his eyes, there was a layer of hostility accumulated…

　　”ah?”

　　No, no…

　　Cheap son, the line “starve for another five days” was a task issued by the system! It was not what I really meant!

　　Qin Qingqing wanted to explain.

　　But she didn’t keep up with her eldest son.

　　All her words were stuck on her lips.

　　Just then, a clear female voice came from the stairs.

　　It was the new guy who was complaining before.

　　”Master, how could you do this to your wife?”

　　”?”

　　Lu Liye frowned.

　　but–

　　He had to stop because the new maid blocked his way.

　　”The lady is beautiful and kind…”

　　”‘Five more days of hunger’ must have been said in anger!”

　　The maid seemed to know the lady very well; she explained for the lady and the young master…

　　But all he could hear around him was the sound of her companions breathing in and out.

　　During this time, there were also their whispers –

　　”Isn’t this new guy too brave?”

　　”Does she really not know…the true face of the lady?”

　　”I bet a bag of spicy noodles that Madam’s words ‘starving for another five days’ must be true, and ‘eating candy to fill the stomach’ must be a joke…”

　　”No! It’s a humiliation! Naked humiliation…”

　　”Last time, she mistakenly thought that the young master had damaged her skirt. Didn’t she first order the young master to fast for a few days, and then… as alms, gave him a few pieces of candy?”

　　”There is such a thing?! Did the young master eat?”

　　”Just when I was about to eat… I was mocked and humiliated by that woman!”

　　”Alas……”

　　The servants sighed.

　　even……

　　The new servant, who was trying to stand up for the lady, had a look of embarrassment on her face.

　　But–

　　The complaints over there not only continued, but became increasingly excited and louder.

　　”And the time before that, she insisted on riding her motorcycle to send the young master to school. She ended up oversleeping and complained that the young master left first… When he came back, she punished him by making him kneel all night.”

　　”As a result, the next day, the young master’s knees were so swollen that he couldn’t even walk… She mocked him again before leaving in style.”

　　”That time, the young master took a full week of sick leave.”

　　”Ah… I don’t know about that… But it sounds like the Madam is becoming more and more perverted.”

　　”Well, isn’t it?”

　　As the servants spoke, they all shook their heads and kept silent.

　　The truth is: there are too many such incidents to mention. If they really wanted to talk about them, they would probably spend days and nights talking about them…

　　“…”

　　The new servant’s expression became even more embarrassed.

　　Lu Liye ignored her, but turned around and glanced at Qin Qingqing sarcastically——

　　”You won’t let her go away?”

　　Obviously he thought that this servant was under Qin Qingqing’s instructions.

　　”Go down.”

　　Qin Qingqing waved her hands helplessly…

　　He watched the new maid leave like quails, and then she stood in front of Lu Liye with a complicated expression.

　　Qin Qingqing really couldn’t agree with the original owner’s previous actions. But it was also true that there was no way to quibble…

　　All she could do was try to explain what happened this time.

　　At least, she had to let her adopted son understand that she really didn’t want him to “go hungry for another five days.”

　　otherwise……

　　His body really can’t bear it!

　　As for how to explain it?

　　Qin Qingqing recalled the classic images of loving mothers in TV dramas…
