Chapter 835: The Disabled Young Master (End)
Two more years passed, and the Dongbo Marquis died.
At first, Li Shuai was delighted that he had inherited the marquis's residence, thinking that at last he would no longer have to be restrained.
But he soon discovered that because he had spent all his time idling around after returning, he still hadn't learned any skills that could support himself.
On top of that, his habit of spending lavishly had already become ingrained. After losing the Dongbo Marquis, who had served as a connection to the various families, the Dongbo Marquis's Residence was completely squandered away by him in just three short years.
At this point, the noble wife he had once yearned for chose to divorce him by mutual agreement.
Li Shuai had long since had enough of her nagging and restrictions as well, so he readily agreed.
However, after losing his noble wife, his life became increasingly difficult.
Another two years passed. Although the Dongbo Marquis's Residence had become prosperous in terms of descendants, it had also completely declined.
And at this time, the emperor revoked the Li family's title of Dongbo Marquis as well.
When the news reached He Jiantong's ears, Little Cutie's voice also rang beside Tang Wan's ears.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host, on completing the additional mission: Preventing the Villain from Taking the Path of Becoming a Bandit!”
Tang Wan was somewhat surprised to hear this.
But when she thought about how, in the original plot, He Jiantong had been forced to become a bandit precisely because of the Dongbo Marquis, she understood.
It was probably because, according to the Main System, only after the Dongbo Marquis's Residence had completely declined was the karmic connection between the Marquis's Residence and the villain considered completely severed.
……
After completing the mission, Tang Wan chose to remain in this mission world.
However, life was no longer as comfortable for her as it had been before.
Because this meant she once again had to worry about dying at any moment.
After doing a great deal of mental preparation for herself, she managed not to show anything unusual on her face whenever she looked at He Jiantong and their daughter.
She simply cherished her days with He Jiantong even more.
……
This day was the thirteenth birthday of their little son-in-law, as well as the day he would leave the palace and establish his own residence.
As his future parents-in-law, Tang Wan and He Jiantong naturally brought their daughter along to attend.
Unexpectedly, just as they had arrived and stopped at the entrance of the prince's residence, a horse suddenly bolted out of control toward them, crashing into a heavy agarwood carriage parked nearby as well.
Tang Wan instinctively pushed the daughter she was holding to the side, then hurriedly reached out to protect He Jiantong, who was sitting in his wheelchair.
The next moment, the heavy carriage crashed directly into both of their heads.
Tang Wan died on the spot and left the mission world.
……
After returning to the pure white space, Tang Wan took a deep breath, desperately suppressing the urge to curse.
Couldn't this damn mission world just let her live properly for once?
Little Cutie cautiously watched Tang Wan's expression.
Seeing that she hadn't unexpectedly started cursing, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he immediately tried to distract her by praising her.
“The Host's psychological resilience is getting better and better! I told you that sooner or later you'd get used to dying!”
The moment she heard this, Tang Wan immediately glared at him threateningly.
“What did you say? Looks like I'll have to wait a little longer before giving you that System Upgrade Gift Pack!”
Little Cutie instantly froze like a statue.
The next moment, he hurriedly rushed over, hugged Tang Wan's arm, and began acting spoiled.
“Host! Good Host! Give it to me! Once I upgrade, maybe I'll be able to unlock even more permissions. Then I'll be able to help you with even more things!”
“Why don't I quite believe you?” Tang Wan said with a dry laugh.
