Puslin immediately begged for mercy, "Yes, yes, yes! It's all my fault!"
If they had just brushed this off as kids' play, it would have blown over.
But they insisted on blowing it up, so don't blame him for being unforgiving!
Want to smear his daughter? Keep dreaming!
Puslin took out his Light Brain and played the video he had recorded in a holographic format, enlarging it for everyone to see.
Initially, he just wanted to capture more videos of his darling daughter while he was still at home, so that when he started working away, he could soothe his longing with these recordings.
Unexpectedly, he ended up filming evidence of his daughter's innocence!
In the video, Mu Yaoyao was pulling on Yu Manman, and as Yu Manman withdrew her hand, Mu Yaoyao staggered and fell...
"It's clear that your kid just lost her balance, and you're blaming it on our Manman!" Puslin said coldly, "Your kid even crushed our Manman's fishing rod!"
Manman was quietly fishing, and Mu Yaoyao insisted on bothering her!
It's not like there was no one else around. Other families were also out with their kids, but Mu Yaoyao repeatedly bothered Manman.
Dean's face turned red, "Yaoyao just wanted to play with your daughter! If your daughter hadn't suddenly pulled back her hand, how would Yaoyao have fallen!"
Puslin laughed in exasperation.
Truly unreasonable.
"My daughter can do as she pleases; she doesn't need to force herself to do things she doesn't like!"
Puslin stared coldly at Dean, "You wronged my daughter, so isn't it reasonable to apologize to her?"
Dean's face darkened; he felt Puslin was being unforgiving even though he had the upper hand!
"I'm sorry, Dean is a bit impulsive; he was just too worried about Yaoyao."
"Wife!" Dean protested, feeling his wife had done nothing wrong, so why should she apologize?
"Dean!" Mu Zhi, holding Mu Yaoyao, looked at Dean with slight reproach, "Since you're at fault, just apologize to Manman..."
Though dissatisfied, Dean relented to his wife's suggestion.
"I'm sorry, I didn't understand the situation. I apologize to you all! Please forgive me!"
Puslin inwardly sneered; it didn't seem like a sincere apology at all.
"You wronged Manman, so for an apology, you should ask for Manman's forgiveness."
Dean's face looked worse; apologizing to a little kid hurt his pride...
But seeing his wife's disapproving gaze, Dean begrudgingly bowed his head, "Manman, it's Uncle's fault, please forgive Uncle..."
Yu Manman looked at the broken fishing rod on the ground, dejectedly saying, "But my fishing rod is broken."
"I'll compensate!" Dean forced himself to say through clenched teeth.
It's just a little fishing rod; surely he could afford to replace it?
"Okay." Yu Manman reluctantly said, "Uncle, don't accuse people unfairly in the future!"
"Unders-tood!"
Puslin put his hands in his pockets and said to Dean, "Since you said you'd compensate for the fishing rod, please make a transfer."
"It's not expensive, just 180,000."
Dean's expression instantly cracked, "What kind of lousy fishing rod is that expensive! You must be trying to scam me!"
Now unemployed, living off monthly government subsidies, his finances were already tight. And now, hearing Puslin suddenly ask for 180,000, Dean's heart was bleeding!
"Scam you?" Puslin leisurely opened his Light Brain and showed his purchase record.
"This fishing rod is indeed 180,000; I just bought it this morning."
His daughter wanted to fish, so of course, he had to provide her with the best equipment! Naturally, he chose the best and most expensive!
But...
Puslin looked disdainfully at the slightly deformed fishing rod.
What kind of lousy brand is this? The quality is ridiculously poor!
Dean was about to explode with anger as he reluctantly transferred the money to Puslin...
Once Mu Yaoyao's real dad returns, Dean was determined to make him pay! Why should he take the heat and compensate for the trouble she caused?
"I see Yaoyao's hand is also scratched. Let's take her to see a doctor first..." Mu Zhi, holding her daughter, suggested leaving.
This was all so humiliating; she didn't want to stay any longer!
She felt like there was just bad luck between her and the Yu Family!
Mu Zhi gave Dean a look, "Let's go..."
Dean used to have a good job, but his temper cost him a promotion opportunity, and he ended up staying at home.
She felt somewhat disappointed in Dean.
Dean understood Mu Zhi's glance, feeling a mix of anxiety and defeat.
"Manman, do you still want to keep fishing?" Puslin packed up the deformed fishing rod.
"Yes~" Yu Manman pointed to Puslin's large fishing rod, "Daddy, fish with me!"
Puslin couldn't believe it; his daughter was so young yet liked fishing this much.
They had prepared for their daughter's likely short-lived interest, bringing many toys and snacks, intending it to be more like a picnic.
Unexpectedly, his daughter was more patient than he was!
"Alright!" Puslin swung his fishing rod, casting the hook far away.
Yu Manman rested her chin on her hands, watching the water's surface.
Soon, there was movement below!
"Fish!" Yu Manman excitedly jumped up, "Daddy!"
"Okay!" Puslin immediately reeled in the line and soon caught a vibrantly colored, orange-red striped clownfish with three silver-white bands.
"Huh?"
Puslin looked at the little clownfish, still wriggling its tail, lost in thought...
[Ding! As the villain in "Beast World's Beauty," Arthur grew up enduring hardships. A kind gesture from the heroine unintentionally won his heart, making him adore her, while also being jealous of the heroine's Beast Husband.]
[You and Arthur are mortal enemies, disliking how Arthur likes the heroine. You went so far as to drug Arthur, making him your Beast Husband! Yet Arthur loathes you to the core, and after becoming your partner, he contrived exposing your ugly side to others!]
[Thereafter, you began revenging on Arthur, denying him Spiritual Sea purification, abusing and cursing him! You two became a pair of resentful companions!]
[Now launching the Villain Reformation Task: Please change your Beast Husband Arthur's perspective on you!]
[Task difficulty: Eight stars!]
[Task reward: Spiritual power doubled!]
Yu Manman blinked cluelessly.
Beast Husband?
Arthur?
Where?
Couldn't see him?
Puslin removed the fish hook, staring at the clownfish.
"Are you a Beastman?"
He sensed a trace of Beastman aura from this palm-sized tiny fish.
The clownfish struggled, falling from Puslin's hand.
The next moment, a thin boy appeared, landing on his backside, with clear, dark eyes brimming with panic.
His cheeks were somewhat gaunt, his complexion pale, arms thin, as if they might break with a gentle snap...
