Song Anhe’s pain gave Liao Jiali such a fright that she immediately released her grip. “You… what’s wrong with you?”
Cold sweat drenched Song Anhe’s body from the agony. Like Mao Fang, whenever he felt such pain, all malicious intentions vanished from his mind. As those thoughts faded, the pain gradually subsided.
This sudden onset and cessation of pain made Song Anhe realize something. Just then, that strange voice echoed again.
[Is Song Anhe trying to scam people? Or is he faking it? If he’s pretending, his acting skills are impressive! The cold sweat looks so real—even an Oscar-winning actor would have to admit defeat! 666!]
Song Anhe flew into a rage. How could they accuse him of faking when he was suffering like this?!
The onlookers: …He really doesn’t seem to be pretending!
“I’ll kill… ah…” Song Anhe clutched his crotch again.
No killing! No killing!
Good, the pain stopped!
Kill! Pain!
No killing! No pain!
Tears welled in Song Anhe’s eyes as he held his tormented area. Which deity have I offended?! A couple more episodes like this, and that part of me might be permanently damaged!
Song Anhe hadn’t cried when he was caught cheating on live stream earlier, but now tears streamed down his face like an old man’s.
“Pfft…” Song Linlang couldn’t hold back a laugh, immediately covering her mouth to avoid drawing attention, struggling to contain her amusement.
Fortunately, the police arrived at that moment.
The officers were there on official business and looked surprised to see such a crowd gathered. “Who is Song Anhe?”
The spectators instinctively stepped back as the police approached. Upon hearing the question, someone pointed at Song Anhe, who was clutching his crotch on the ground. “There, that’s the one on the ground!”
Mao Fang, thinking the police were called by Liao Jiali, spat out bitterly, “Was it necessary to involve the police? How embarrassing!”
“Hey, are you playing the victim first?” Liao Jiali flared up instantly. “You cheating scoundrels aren’t ashamed, so why should I be?”
She pointed at Song Anhe. “That’s him, officer! He’s an adulterer! This woman is his mistress—no, to be precise, she’s his second mistress!”
The police glanced at her and walked over to Song Anhe. “Are you Song Anhe? You’re suspected of involvement in a baby trafficking case. Come with us now!”
“What?!” Everyone present, including those watching the live stream, was stunned. They thought Song Anhe’s affairs, cheating, and secret love child were shocking enough, but they never expected an even more explosive revelation waiting in the wings!
Liao Jiali quickly grasped the situation and glanced at Mo Pingxin in the crowd. Mo Pingxin gave a slight, calm nod. Liao Jiali alone couldn’t handle Song Anhe—she had to step in herself!
Song Anhe reacted swiftly too. He scrambled up from the ground and instantly understood what “baby trafficking” referred to—after all, he had only ever switched a child once!
He roared at Song Ankang in the crowd, “Elder brother, are you framing me?”
Song Ankang’s expression was grim. He had never imagined Song Anhe could be so depraved as to deliberately swap children!
Mo Pingxin said coldly, “Whether it’s a frame-up or not, the police will investigate thoroughly! Song Anhe, you trafficked my daughter. All these years, have you ever felt a shred of guilt when you slept at night?”
Song Anhe shuddered under Mo Pingxin’s icy glare and quickly changed his tune. “It’s a misunderstanding, sister-in-law! All a misunderstanding! Let me explain!”
Mo Pingxin turned her head away dismissively; she couldn’t be bothered to listen to his excuses.
Song Anhe was quickly taken away by the police, and the live-streamed drama of catching an adulterer concluded with the protagonist being escorted away by the authorities.
By then, the incident had already gone viral online. Song Anhe, the popular professor, instantly skyrocketed to the top of trending searches. Adultery, cheating, and child trafficking—no one could have imagined these terms being linked to the upright, morally rigid Song Anhe!
After the crowd dispersed, the Song family returned to their private room to continue their meal.
However, You Xiaoxia still had many questions: [How did the police investigate so quickly that Song Anhe was the one who swapped the babies back then? Judging by the earlier situation, Father Song and Mother Song already knew about it! In the original book, Song Anhe wasn’t exposed this quickly. He was dedicated to causing trouble behind the scenes, and the Song family’s subsequent misfortune and bankruptcy were closely tied to him!]
The Song family exchanged glances—Song Anhe truly deserved to die!
Mo Pingxin smiled cheerfully as she served You Xiaoxia some food: “Xiaoxia, before you returned, your father and I were already investigating the details of the baby mix-up. We just received confirmation at noon today and submitted the evidence to the police. We never expected it would turn out to be Song Anhe’s doing. Fortunately, he’s been arrested now. Don’t worry, Mom will make sure he pays for this!”
Song Linlang also quietly explained to You Xiaoxia: “Mom knew this morning that Auntie was coming to catch the adulterer, so she specifically arranged for us to eat at this restaurant!”
[So that’s how it was!] You Xiaoxia nodded, [No wonder everyone was able to come out in time to enjoy the drama!]
After eating and drinking their fill, it was still early. Mo Pingxin suggested the whole family go shopping at the mall, mainly to buy things for You Xiaoxia, with the others accompanying her.
However, as soon as You Xiaoxia got into the car, [Ding—] Lao Liu suddenly appeared.
[Host, it has been detected that you have accumulated five hundred Guazi. The Wish-Fulfillment Emporium has now been automatically unlocked for you!]
[Wish fulfillment?] You Xiaoxia’s eyes lit up, and she curiously opened the System interface. Sure enough, she saw a new section added to the interface. With a thought, the welcome screen appeared before the emporium opened: “Wish-Fulfillment Emporium—everything you desire is here! Only what the host cannot imagine, nothing we cannot accomplish! Come and exchange now!”
Looking at this advertisement that seemed almost like a scam, You Xiaoxia exclaimed inwardly, [Lao Liu, you folks in the Unification Realm sure talk big!]
[‘Only what I can’t imagine, nothing you can’t do’?! So if I want planes and artillery, can you get them for me?!]
Lao Liu: [Host, we in the Unification Realm never boast!]
The Song family, who hadn’t taken it seriously, struggled to hold back their laughter. You Xiaoxia, also not taking it seriously, waited for the Wish-Fulfillment Emporium to finish loading and unfold before her. Then: [Holy crap! It’s really here!]
“Cough—”
“Pfft…”
Coughing sounds erupted one after another in the car. Song Ankang, who was driving in the front, gripped the steering wheel tightly to avoid sending the whole family to their doom.
