"Hey, hey, hey! How could you mess with the script like that?"
"Isn't that just adding flavor to the plot?"
"Adding flavor? You gave me a pair of horns!"
"It's just for the sake of the act!"
As Murong Chong walked in, he heard Jia Lingyun and Yanfei arguing fiercely. Seeing Murong Chong approach, Jia Lingyun waved a hand at Yanfei.
"Don't change the lines next time. Remember, you’re supposed to be beaten to death, so stay inside and don't go out buying rouge and powder for the next few days!"
"Got it!"
Yanfei replied and headed toward the room.
"I'll just stay in my room and read, happy now?!"
Once Yanfei had left, Jia Lingyun’s expression shifted completely. Gone was his arrogant, overbearing demeanor; he looked up at Jia Lingyun with a pitiful expression.
"Son-in-law!"
"My good son-in-law!"
"You tell me... Qingqing actually wants me to go collect money for the national treasury... I tried to reason with her, but she wouldn't listen. I... I have no choice but to beg you for help."
