Finally, they spotted a square water pool one meter on each side. So, all four of them reached in to wash their hands, but before they could even begin, they all screamed in surprise. It turned out that four enormous crabs were tightly gripping their hands—each one holding both of their hands—and the four people were so in pain that they shook with discomfort, calling out, "Oh my! Oh my!" Chen Yuting’s gaze once again turned to Zhou Chao, the man known for his fierce temper and unruly indulgences. Now, seeing Zhou Chao struggling desperately—exhaling heavily, gasping for breath—managing to push the crabs aside, and sitting with his three younger brothers on the three tree stumps within the Miraculous Array, they were all shrieking in agony. It turned out that the tree stumps were embedded with long, slender steel needles, piercing their butts so severely that they were crying out in pain, wailing like they were being torn apart. "Husband! Zhou Chao isn't human! He's a beast!" Chen Yuting exclaimed. Then Chen Yuting went according to the address, and surprisingly found that it was Zhou Chao's luxurious villa at Kaixiao Ling. Once the golden bird was caged, Zhou Chao's indulgent nature became evident. Yet Chen Yuting would not yield; she stood firm, even threatening to die. Frustrated, Zhou Chao immediately locked Chen Yuting in a room. While Zhou Chao and his three younger brothers were dining, Chen Yuting called her female server and simply said this was the final course, and if the customer wished, it would be served. As she was speaking, Zhou Chao and his three brothers appeared right beside her. The server sensed something was amiss and immediately asked what was going on. At that moment, Chen Yuting could not reveal the truth, only saying, "I've caught a slight illness and am seeing a doctor at the hospital." The server then began to believe her. Yet Chen Yuting did not return all night, and she grew increasingly anxious. Zhou Chao was extremely unscrupulous—he had his staff forge a resignation letter from Chen Yuting and sent it over, written in a tone perfectly mimicking Chen's own voice. "Honey! Please tell me! How is your illness coming along?" Gao Liang pressed. Chen Yuting immediately looked at Gao Liang with wide, expressive eyes, but then quickly composed herself, acting as if nothing were amiss, and said, "Husband, what illness is it? Isn't she perfectly fine?" "Stupid wife! Don't fool me anymore! Just tell me—what exactly is wrong?" Gao Liang persisted. Chen Yuting didn't know that Gao Liang had read her diary, and thus found it hard to accept the truth that she had been suffering from illness all along—something that had started quietly years ago, had improved, but had recently flared up again and was growing more severe. After a private medical check-up, the diagnosis was cancer, in its late stages, and it seemed she wouldn't be around for much longer. Yet, these things could only be highlighted in her diary, for if she were to tell them face to face to Gao Liang, she feared he might not bear the blow. "I'm fine! Husband! I'm really fine! I'm perfectly well! Yes, I'm healthy!" Chen Yuting tried to conceal them. But Gao Liang tenderly held her tightly, saying, "For the past six months, you've been so worn out—only because of the Dream Zhu Hotel! It's been my fault, Yuting! Believe me—I will surely find a way to cure you of this illness!" "Husband! You're so kind! Do you know? Just hearing you say such caring words has already made me deeply content!" Chen Yuting's tears welled up spontaneously on her delicate face, while Gao Liang gently kissed the tears from her eyes with his warm lips. For six months, Chen Yuting has truly been a remarkably strong woman. She has quietly nurtured her love for Gao Liang, embedding it within the operations and management of Dream Pearl Hotel, within the knitted sweaters she has made for Gao Liang... She is an extraordinary woman among Gao Liang's several wives—she never competes for attention, but instead quietly serves in the background. Gao Liang himself is well aware of this, and indeed, he is extremely busy, constantly upgrading and refining himself, striving to ascend to greater heights. As a result, he has naturally given less attention and care to Chen Yuting, despite her sending weekly work updates via email. These updates remain formal, reflecting only the hierarchical relationship between a subordinate and a superior, rather than the intimate, loving connection that exists between spouses. Why does Chen Yuting have a note tucked inside the envelope of her resignation letter? When Gao Liang sees the note, he immediately recognizes it as evidence pointing to Zhou Chao's luxurious villa in Kuaihuolin, near Kyoto. This was all due to Luo Qi's carelessness—his very capable third-in-command. The note itself was penned by Zhou Chao himself: "Luo Qi, remember: your task is to draft a fake resignation letter, deliver it to Mengzhu Hotel, then return to Kuaixiao Lin! Remember, execute your duties efficiently!" How could Gao Liang, who didn't even regard Zhou Chao as a serious contender, let alone his third-in-command, tolerate such a clumsy subordinate? Gao Liang immediately notified his three close friends and requested that they go to Kuaixiao Lin to carry out a special mission. Thus, the scene described above unfolded. Meanwhile, Zhou Chao and his three younger brothers were confused about directions in the camp, exhausted and thirsty. Suddenly, Zhou Chao realized his three younger brothers had vanished—something was clearly wrong. Turning around, he saw three beautiful women smiling at him. As soon as he saw women, he felt an intense itch, and immediately rushed toward them like a starving wolf. He gently kissed one of the women—only to feel a cool sensation. Upon closer inspection, Zhou Chao gasped—these weren't women at all! They had transformed into skeletons, their teeth exposed, looking terrifying. Realizing he had just kissed the skeleton's mouth, he immediately spat out a mouthful of bitter water. At that moment, the other two skeletons began to charge at Zhou Chao, grabbing and biting his body, leaving him terrified and screaming like a ghost. The skeletons' faces were grotesque, and one of them stomped firmly on Zhou Chao's lower body, directly on his penis.
