"What level of completion is required to end this?"
"Host, the ultimate goal is to have Liu Wenxing experience a lonely youth, endure being your son-in-law, suffer under your torment and abuse, ultimately leading to a twisted psyche. Then, you must single-handedly make him fall in love with you and feel the warmth of home."
"Don't tell me we're already at the stage where he should love me..."
"Host, you're simply too clever. Yes, he has already turned dark and needs you to save him."
"Ha, you can leave now. Remember to correct my memories; otherwise, I will just give up."
"Understood. Memory correction complete. Host, do your best."
As I lay in bed recalling the memories of the original owner alongside my own, I suddenly felt a shadow looming before me, exuding a murderous intent. I rolled over under the covers and peeked out cautiously. To my surprise, I saw my seemingly weak and helpless husband, curled up at the foot of the bed with a whip in hand.
I was bewildered and exclaimed, "What are you doing?"
"My lady, aren't you going to hit me today? I angered you today; it was my fault. Wen Xing naturally must come to atone."
Seeing his red-rimmed eyes and the deliberately exposed whip marks on his wrist, I couldn't help but feel somewhat amused. Although I chuckled inwardly, I still had to maintain a concerned facade since I had a mission to complete.
"Get up; I'm not hitting you today. I'm not angry either. Have you applied medicine? Let me help you with that." I reached for his hand, intending to lead him to the low table.
He subtly dodged my grasp, perhaps thinking I was going to pull him onto the bed.
"Wife, are you tired of me? It makes sense; seeing my face every day would be tiresome. Now you don't even want to hit me anymore; there's no need for medicine since you surely don't want to touch me."
"Oh, then go back; I'm going to sleep," I replied coolly, casting a fleeting glance at him before rolling over and closing my eyes under the covers in one smooth motion.
Once I heard him leave, I buried my head in the blanket.
Ahhh! What kind of divine man is this? So handsome! His red eyes make me want to tease him!
The attributes of tea and trembling couldn't withstand this situation. Forget it, I should just focus on completing the task and leave quickly. Sleep, sleep.
The next morning, I brought Wen Xing to the Main Courtyard.
At the head of the hall sat my father, the head of the Xu family, looking dignified and gentle, resembling Pan An.
I respectfully bowed and said, "Father."
"Hmph!"
The family head snorted coldly, dissatisfied. "No manners! Why didn't you kneel when you saw your father?"
"Someone, bring out the family rules!"
I was taken aback. Were we really going to resort to violence right away?
I instinctively glanced at Liu Wenxing. His eyes darkened slightly, wearing an indifferent expression.
I thought to myself: He really is quite shaken; there must be something wrong with him.
But I couldn't just stand by; I had to complete my task.
I forced a smile and said, "Father, Wen Xing is weak and needs proper care. Let's forget about this matter for now; after all, he is my only husband!"
With that, I pulled Wen Xing forward to perform the three kneels and three bows to my father.
This was the custom.
When a daughter returns home after marriage, she must kneel to express gratitude for her upbringing.
Once we settled down, my father's expression was still somewhat displeased.
"I've told you long ago that that good-for-nothing is not worthy of you, but you wouldn't listen."
Hearing my father's scolding, I took his hand and offered him comfort.
