After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 496 He's preparing to change bodies.

In the pitch-black room, a furtive figure crept stealthily toward the kitchen cabinet where snacks were kept.

After hesitating for a moment, it finally succumbed to its hunger and reached out to pull open the cabinet door.

The golden eyes blinked nervously in the darkness, silently trying to mentally prepare itself.

It's so late and they still haven't come back, so they probably won't be coming back tonight.

With so much food in the cupboard, even if one or two bags are missing, you probably wouldn't notice, right?

After much deliberation, I finally made up my mind, hooked my paws on a bag of bread in the cupboard, took it out, and couldn't wait to tear open the packaging and take a big bite.

The sound of a card being swiped came from outside the door.

The monkey, who hadn't even taken a bite of bread yet: "..."

I'm really going to cry!
Why did this great demon have to return so just in time?!
Despite its inner turmoil, it reacted quickly.

He kicked the cabinet door shut, grabbed the bread, ran a few steps, and then slid under the sofa with a sliding motion.

Almost immediately after completing this series of actions, the door opened.

Jiang Hanying casually inserted the room card into the power outlet, and the indoor lights instantly turned on.

I glanced at the spotless room, about to nod in satisfaction, when my peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a tail peeking out from under the sofa, and the lingering scent in the air...

Her orange-flavored mini bread rolls!

"come out!"

After a few seconds, the monkey crawled out from under the sofa, with what appeared to be a few suspicious bread crumbs on its mouth.

Before Jiang Hanying could speak, a single sinister glance was enough for it to confess without being asked.

First, it clutched its stomach and pretended to be starving, then it made a "one" sign to indicate that it had only eaten one meal that day, in the morning. Finally, it pulled an empty bread bag from under the sofa to show that it hadn't dared to eat much more.

As Jiang Hanying watched it perform energetically, she silently took the soft sword from her waist.

The moment the soft sword was drawn from its sheath, the monkey abruptly stopped wiping its mouth, its gaze fixed on the sword.

Jiang Hanying, seeing its reaction, asked, "You sensed it?"

The monkey then shifted its gaze from the sword to Jiang Hanying's face, its golden eyes filled with astonishment, and it opened its mouth to squeak...

"Stop squeaking, I can't understand monkey language. I saw the guy who stole your body today, and I even bled him a little, yeah, with this sword. Then I discovered something worrying, no, something worrying for you: your body is dying. It looks pretty young on the surface, but the blood already smells rotten. That guy somehow created a substitute of spiritual blood to keep it going, but it's not very effective. No wonder he's so determined to get the stone embryo; it seems he really plans to get a new body. Guess what will happen to your body then?"

The monkey couldn't help but shudder.

What else can be done? There can't be two identical Yuan Qingzhuo in this world.

Now that the guy has a new body made of stone, the original one must be destroyed decisively, otherwise why would we leave it for him?
He didn't believe that guy would be so kind!

But this day came too quickly.

He thought he would have to wait until the stone embryo grew larger before replacing it.

But if his body is already on the verge of collapse as Jiang Hanying said, then it would be better to replace it much earlier.

As for not being able to appear in the public eye after the change, they can simply hide behind the scenes for a while under an assumed name.

The growth rate of a child born from a stone fetus is likely different from that of a normal baby.

Perhaps one month is equivalent to a year for an average baby.

It took him only two or three years to grow back to his original physical form.

Two or three years later, a completely new Yuan Qingzhuo emerged, but he was no longer the same person.

Just thinking about it makes my vision go black!
Seeing it standing motionless on the coffee table like a monkey doll, Jiang Hanying tapped its head with the tip of her sword and sighed dramatically. "So, you really don't have much time left. Write down everything you know, without holding anything back, it might save your life." She paused, "If you die before that day comes, I'll avenge you."

monkey:"……"

I thank you!
"Revenge" is just a convenient way of helping him get revenge, right?

But he was already dead by then. Whether I sought revenge or not, he wouldn't come back to life anyway. Damn it!
"Alright, that's all I have to say." Jiang Hanying put the soft sword back in its sheath and placed it on the table beside her. "Think it over carefully, time waits for no one!"

After saying that, she went straight into the bedroom to wash up and go to sleep.

Go ahead and think about it. The night is long, you have plenty of time to think it over.

The next morning, the cell phone suddenly rang in the quiet living room.

The monkey lying next to him almost came back to life on the spot.

He spent most of last night thinking about whether Jiang Hanying was bluffing or telling the truth. He finally drifted off to sleep just before dawn, but was suddenly woken up. For a moment, he felt like throwing his still-ringing phone down the toilet and flushing it away.

Never mind, he wouldn't dare.

The actual thing to do was: get up, glance at the caller ID, unplug the charging cable, walk to the bedroom door with the phone in hand, and gently knock on the door with a paw.

Jiang Hanying, still half asleep under the covers, mumbled "Come in," then lay there with her eyes closed for two seconds before realizing she was knocking on the door of the inner bedroom!
I sat up abruptly and looked over, only to find myself staring wide-eyed at a monkey who had squeezed through the crack in the door while clutching his phone.

The monkey quickly raised its phone: "Squeak!"

Jiang Hanying glanced at its listless appearance and, unusually, refrained from making any sarcastic remarks. She knew without a doubt that this guy hadn't slept well last night.

With all that talk she said before going to bed, no wonder she couldn't sleep well!
I reached into my phone pouch and dialed the number.

Pei Yuan's voice came through the microphone, "Sister, are you in your hotel room?"

"I'm here."

"OK, I just wanted to confirm. I'll take the breakfast over now."

"bring it on."

After hanging up the call, Jiang Hanying looked down at the ground and saw that the monkey had disappeared.

Quite self-conscious.

Just as I finished getting dressed and washing up, the knocking on the door started.

Jiang Hanying went over and opened the door, letting Pei Yuan and Yue Zhuo, who were standing outside, in.

Good morning, sister.

"morning."

Pei Yuan quickly set the breakfast she brought on the table, and the three of them sat down to eat.

The monkey, who had only managed to sneak a small bread roll last night and stayed up half the night, was starving, but could only hide under the sofa and sniff at the smell of food: "Gulp!"

Yue Zhuo paused in his eating of the steamed bun and subconsciously glanced towards the sofa.

Jiang Hanying was sitting opposite him. When she saw his action, she raised an eyebrow and asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"

"I think I just heard a sound," Yue Zhuo said hesitantly. "Could it be a mouse?"

Pei Yuan had just picked up a fried dough stick to eat when she heard this and reflexively kicked off her slippers and stepped onto a chair. "No, can't be?"

Seeing her frightened expression, Yue Zhuo put down his chopsticks and was about to get up when he said, "Don't be afraid, I'll go take a look."

"No, let's call a cleaning service instead..."

The monkey being treated like a mouse: "..."

You're the rat! Your whole family are rats!

Before Yue Zhuo could take a step, a hand pressed down on his shoulder. "You misheard."

Yue Zhuo met Jiang Hanying's gaze, blinked, and said, "Then I must have misheard?"

"Okay." Jiang Hanying smiled and nodded at him. "Keep eating. By the way, someone is coming to visit the set today. Pei Yuan, could you take Yue Zhuo to make arrangements?"

Pei Yuan nodded subconsciously, then noticed that the two people sitting at the table were both quite calm, while she herself was reacting very strongly. She quickly put her feet down again and asked, "Sister, who came to visit the set this time?"

"Lan Qiao".

"Lan Qiao? Lan Su's young lady?"

"Ah."

"Why would this young lady suddenly decide to come to Queshan to visit the set?"

“I ran into her last night. She said she would bring some delicious food to visit the set, and I said yes.”

Pei Yuan: "..."

The most important thing is that it tastes good!
