Ye Xuan stages a dramatic suicide attempt by shattering bricks and falling unconscious, which Lin Tong and Liu Ying believe. Luo Qing, despite her own deceptive nature, aids Ye Xuan's charade by pretending to administer medical aid, while secretly marveling at his ruthlessness. Lin Tong, convinced Ye Xuan is gravely injured and possibly dying, tearfully begs for his forgiveness and promises to change, prompting Ye Xuan to 'wake up' and inquire if he is still alive.

Lin Tong offered a gentle smile, saying, "Do not speak such foolishness. How could you possibly die? If you were to pass, what would become of me? And what of Little Yunduo? Not to mention Xiao Ying and Yumo?"

Ye Xuan shook his head, his voice tinged with regret. "But my dear... I truly feel guilty and in pain."

Lin Tong closed her beautiful eyes, her smile unwavering. "Husband, there is genuinely no need to feel guilty. You have wronged no one, and I have come to terms with this situation a long time ago. These were all my decisions. If you cannot let go of this burden, then that would be the true way of wronging me."

"Is this truly how you feel?" Ye Xuan gazed at Lin Tong with a hint of suspicion.

"It is absolutely true!" Lin Tong nodded earnestly. "Moreover, for all of this... I also bear some fault. I cannot possibly blame you alone. Please, do not dwell on it anymore, alright?"

"Then..." Ye Xuan pondered for a moment, his expression shifting as if he were making a significant sacrifice. "Alright, my dear, I promise you, I will not do anything foolish any longer."

A smile of relief spread across Lin Tong's face as she finally exhaled a deep breath.

Ye Xuan stirred weakly. "Help me up."

Lin Tong looked surprised. "Do you require something? I can go fetch it for you."

"No." Ye Xuan shook his head and stated, "You said I could not enter for the entire night until dawn tomorrow. I have been lying down for far too long and can no longer bear to recline. I need to return to the doorway."

Everyone present was left speechless.

Lin Tong's face instantly paled, and she hastily interjected, "What are you talking about? I... I was merely jesting with you. How could I possibly let you remain at the door for a full day and night? It is over now, all of this is finished!"

"Is it truly over?" Ye Xuan looked at Lin Tong, feigning a sulk.

"It is truly over." Lin Tong nodded emphatically.

Ye Xuan let out a profound sigh. "My dear, you are so incredibly good to me."

Lin Tong could not bring herself to smile, feeling an immense discomfort churning within her. An intense wave of guilt surged through her heart like a tempest.

Oh Lin Tong, how much longer do you intend to wound Ye Xuan before you finally cease?

He, the great Black Emperor, carries himself with such humility before you. Is it because he possesses no pride? It is solely because he loves you so deeply!

Lin Tong embraced Ye Xuan tightly, her hold growing stronger with each passing moment, as if she yearned to meld this man completely into her very being.

She never again wished to inflict pain upon Ye Xuan...

And Ye Xuan, sensing Lin Tong's embrace, was overjoyed inwardly, truly believing that his perseverance had yielded its reward.

I am an actor; I am a king!

Xiao Zhiqing, I secretly give you a thumbs-up!

...

And so, Ye Xuan lived like royalty.

At the very least, he did so today.

For breakfast, Lin Tong personally fed him each bite.

For lunch, Little Yunduo demonstrated her filial piety by feeding Ye Xuan.

For dinner, actresses Liu Ying and Chi Lian joined forces to feed him.

Such a life was simply beyond that of an immortal!

Throughout the entire day, Ye Xuan barely stirred from his position on the sofa.

Did he desire some fruit? Little Yunduo cheerfully presented a plate.

Did he wish to smoke? Lin Tong carefully lit a cigarette for Ye Xuan.

Did he want to chat on WeChat? Lin Tong suggested engaging with pretty girls, advising against conversing with the unattractive ones...

This was practically the pinnacle of existence!

In the evening, supported by three women and a child, Ye Xuan made his way back to his room. To ensure the patient Ye Xuan received exceptional care, Lin Tong specifically arranged for Liu Ying to share Ye Xuan's room for the night.

Ye Xuan politely demurred, "My dear, wouldn't this be somewhat improper?"

Liu Ying appeared somewhat flustered. "Xiao Tong, this is indeed rather inappropriate. We have only just returned; how can we... in front of you..."

Lin Tong waved her hand, her tone graceful. "We are all family now; there is no need for embarrassment. At this moment, I cannot be by Ye Xuan's side, so... it will be up to you."

"This..." Even the usually brazen Liu Ying found herself blushing at that moment.

Ye Xuan's eyes welled up with tears. "My dear, I can endure it!"

Lin Tong contemplated his words, remaining silent.

Sensing the situation was taking an unfavorable turn, Ye Xuan quickly added, "However, today, it seems I exerted myself too greatly, and it appears someone needs to attend to me."

"Then it is settled," Lin Tong declared decisively, turning to walk into her own room and closing the door, effectively isolating herself from the surrounding world.

Chi Lian gazed at Lin Tong's closed door for a moment before shaking her head. "Being the wife of Brother Black Emperor is truly a challenging endeavor."

With a sympathetic sigh, Chi Lian picked up Little Yunduo and proceeded to the adjacent room.

She had formed a close friendship with Little Yunduo and decided they would share a room from this point forward, offering mutual care and companionship.

Ye Xuan and Liu Ying exchanged a look.

Liu Ying rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Ye Xuan, you have truly gone too far this time."

"You do not understand," Ye Xuan sighed. "Enough talk, help me into the room."

"Do you not possess legs?" Liu Ying retorted, casting an arrogant glance at Ye Xuan before proudly striding into the room first.

Ye Xuan was left momentarily speechless. Liu Ying, your temper is certainly formidable, but do you not realize who holds the ultimate authority in this household today?

Yet, after a moment’s consideration, Ye Xuan chose not to engage in a dispute with Liu Ying.

It wasn’t out of generosity, but rather because Liu Ying proved too difficult to handle. If she were to become agitated and reveal his pretense to Lin Tong, his efforts would be completely wasted.

Such an outcome would nullify everything and likely provoke a significantly stronger adverse reaction from Lin Tong!

"My dearest, everything I do is for your own good!"

Ye Xuan murmured to the ceiling before he entered the room with renewed vigor.

Soon, boisterous sounds reverberated, almost filling the entire villa.

It was then that Ye Xuan understood; the Yunjia Manor’s soundproofing wasn't inadequate; it was Liu Ying's voice that was truly exceptional.

Across the way, Lin Tong found herself unable to sleep the entire night.

The faint, peculiar noises she heard caused her to toss and turn restlessly, unable to find slumber. At several points, she nearly lost control, contemplating storming into the adjacent room to confront the two.

However, upon reaching the door, Lin Tong paused.

"Lin Tong, you cannot do this."

"Lin Tong, you must grant him his freedom."

"Lin Tong, let go of those old-fashioned ideas. They don’t suit you or him; the source of all these problems lies within you."

"Lin Tong, persevere and accept it all quickly!"

"Lin Tong, you can do it!"

"..."

This particular night was a period of intense inner struggle for Lin Tong.

Only in the early morning, as the commotion finally died down, did she drift into a dazed sleep, a profound sense of guilt weighing upon her...

Indulging in a life of pleasure, Ye Xuan savored it for a full three days.

During this time, Ye Xuan exerted considerable effort, collaborating with the mastermind Xiao Zhiqing, and devising numerous strategies. These endeavors ultimately led to Lin Tong accepting her current situation, mitigating the backlash from the incident involving Liu Ying.

Concurrently, the wound on Ye Xuan’s forehead had healed by more than half within these three days, leaving only a faint trace. His astonishing healing capabilities left everyone in awe.

Naturally, Chi Lian was not surprised, having witnessed Ye Xuan’s injuries over the years. While she didn’t understand the reason, she had grown accustomed to it.

Without exaggeration, even without any treatment, Ye Xuan could rapidly recover from injuries of such severity on his own...

Meanwhile, Lin Tong and Liu Ying also returned to their regular work routines.
