Ming Huaxin clenched her teeth in rage: "At first, I only knew he was cheating on me, but I didn’t know who the other person was. The second he divorced me, he hooked up with Bai Yan. The way they behaved, so close they seemed like they’d known each other for generations, I finally understood where my humiliation originated."
"People outside are saying you don’t like serpent-type Beast Husbands," Xiao Jinsheng said.
Ming Huaxin fumed even more: "Bullshit!"
"The three Beast Husbands matched through the terminal—I only saw them after I boarded the ship."
"The ship was sailing across the sea, moving closer to the Northern Territory. It was getting colder and colder, and I was on my period during those days, already sensitive to the cold."
"Any normal person would snuggle with a warm and fluffy Beastman; no one would willingly touch a snake’s cold, scaled form after beastification!"
Speaking of Qing Zelin, Ming Huaxin’s face turned red with fury: "Anyway, his heart wasn’t with me to begin with. With just a wave of someone else’s hand, he was whisked away. I don’t keep trash around, and it was him who asked for the divorce first."
"He brought it up himself?" Two voices chorused in astonishment.
Ming Huaxin turned her head, her gaze skipping past Xiao Jinsheng and landing on Yu Yunxiao: "This is girl talk, why are you edging into it?"
"He’s my Beast Husband, Yu Yunxiao," Xiao Jinsheng explained with a smile, then patted Yu Yunxiao, signaling him to step aside.
Yu Yunxiao had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and shuffle away to the side.
Ming Huaxin continued: "He said it himself, that we were incompatible, and that he already had someone he liked. He wanted me to divorce him."
"Fine, I can grant the divorce; I don’t need him. But then I asked him where this person he likes was, and he said she was on the ship."
Ming Huaxin grew increasingly agitated as she spoke: "Think about it. At that time on the ship, the timing of his confession—why not say it earlier or later? He told me on the fifth day aboard that he had someone he liked. That could only mean he fell for her recently, within those few days!"
"I had my suspicions at first, but then I questioned him—and damn it! He really met and started liking this female on the ship!"
"He even admitted to cheating on me. If I didn’t whip him, it’d feel like an injustice to myself!"
"As expected, I hadn’t lashed him a few times before the seduced female came knocking, pretending to be concerned, turning me into the villain instead."
"Thinking back now, I’m still furious! That useless terminal, what kind of idiot did it pair me with!"
"Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. Want some candy?" Xiao Jinsheng handed her a pack of soft candies.
Ming Huaxin took them unceremoniously, biting into one with extra force: "I regret it so much. I was blinded by rage at the time."
"Since they were already fooling around together, I shouldn’t have only asked for a thousand Four Star Star Stones."
"Qing Zelin is at least a Five Star Beastman. I should have demanded 5,000 Five Star Star Stones from Bai Yan instead."
Ming Huaxin felt increasingly regretful.
From her words, Xiao Jinsheng gained more detailed insight about Bai Yan obtaining another Beast Husband and advancing her spiritual power by one star.
At the same time, Xiao Jinsheng’s perceptions of Bai Yan’s moral compass were once again shattered.
To enhance personal spiritual power, seeking more Beast Husbands wasn’t wrong.
In fact, Bai Yan’s spiritual power upgrades, where each star brought an additional life, were something she envied.
But seeking Beastmen who were already taken—that was crossing the line.
And Bai Yan’s system ability to alter memories, which had failed to work on Shi Xie, was currently in its cooldown period.
Thus, Qing Zelin’s choice of Bai Yan was clearly his own free will, unrelated to Bai Yan’s memory-altering abilities.
Xiao Jinsheng tightened her fist, her palms itching with frustration.
She wanted to give Bai Yan and Qing Zelin one slap each, and then tie them together and unleash the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms.
Ming Huaxin calmed down after venting.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, she glanced at Xiao Jinsheng, who was smiling serenely: "Sorry, I was too worked up. I made you endure so much of my negativity."
"Not at all. Bai Yan and I have our own grudge," Xiao Jinsheng replied with a smile.
Seeing an ally with shared animosity, Ming Huaxin perked up: "What’s your beef with her? Care to share?"
"Bai Yan and I were neighbors at the Terminal Shelter, then neighbors again in the housing distributed after marriage, and now even our rooms on the ship are stacked as upper and lower neighbors."
"Ugh, a horrifying neighbor," Ming Huaxin exclaimed, sucking in a breath.
"I’ve never gotten along with her, bickering since childhood," Xiao Jinsheng briefly explained, including Bai Yan’s frequent attempts to sow discord between her and her Beast Husband.
The two women chatted with growing enthusiasm until Huaiqing interrupted: "Dinner’s ready."
"Dinner’s ready at my place too. Care to join?" Xiao Jinsheng invited.
Ming Huaxin expressed thanks before waving her hand: "Food’s ready at my house too. If I don’t eat there, they’ll get upset."
Hearing this, Xiao Jinsheng paused with a slight confusion.
Ming Huaxin’s Beast Husband Yi Le had already come to escort her away.
Even as Ming Huaxin left, she seemed reluctant, making a promise before leaving: "Let’s chat again tomorrow; we’ll walk together."
"Absolutely." Xiao Jinsheng was delighted to find a female companion who shared common ground.
Both of them even shared the same label—villainous supporting characters, villainous females.
"It’s good the system didn’t control you back then," Yu Yunxiao said after hearing the details, looking at Shi Xie with dread: "Otherwise, we’d have another Ten Star enemy to contend with."
Shi Xie’s icy blue eyes glanced at him, explaining: "The system’s ability to control and modify memories is all based on the mermaid’s dreamscape talent."
"Excessive emotional fluctuation, weak strength, and wavering willpower are all vulnerabilities the system can exploit to take control."
"Female Master, the times your memories were altered, they always followed arguments with Bai Yan, didn’t they?" Shi Xie asked.
Xiao Jinsheng recalled this, and in every instance where her memories were modified, she’d argued with Bai Yan shortly beforehand.
The time Bai Yan controlled her into selling Mo Jiao was preceded by an argument. She had stormed upstairs, furious, only to be controlled moments later.
Things escalated further back—burning offerings for her parents late at night, already shaken emotionally. Then encountering Mo Jiao, she inexplicably lashed out the next day, forcing him into the basement.
But Xiao Jinsheng had completely forgotten about the midnight ritual—or even her parents.
"In quiet environments or while sleeping, those with low strength are also vulnerable to control," Shi Xie added.
"With your improved spiritual power and a stable mind, the system can no longer control you," Shi Xie reassured Xiao Jinsheng.
This explained Bai Yan’s shifting strategy of no longer altering Xiao Jinsheng’s memories recently.
There was simply no opportunity.
Remembering her past, Xiao Jinsheng’s fighting spirit soared, her insults growing more potent. Bai Yan couldn’t provoke her anymore, nor throw her off balance emotionally.
As for sneak attacks during sleep?
Xiao Jinsheng rotated her Beast Husbands to accompany her nightly, or retreated to her private space—equally preventing any chance.
"As for you lot," Shi Xie sneered coldly, his gaze sweeping across the six other men with murderous intent:
"If your will is weak enough to be manipulated by a mere dreamscape, you might as well finish yourselves off now."
"My Female Master accepts only widowers, not divorcees."
Xiao Jinsheng looked to Shi Xie, astonished by his departure from the usual obedient persona.
