Ye Xiao understood the two tasks at hand.
The first task was essentially to change Ye Qingrong's fate. However, what constitutes a happy and fulfilling life is subjective. For Ye Qingrong, the obstacles to her happiness were her two children.
If Ye Xiao had arrived earlier, she might have gradually educated and changed these two.
As it stood... it seemed too late.
If she persisted in trying to save and change them, she might just recreate the original tragedy of the story.
If she outright abandoned these two, would that still count as a happy and fulfilling life?
The second task was quite straightforward, which was to confiscate the female lead's golden finger.
As far as Ye Xiao was concerned, the world's male and female leads did not have much of a problem.
One was a patriotic general, and the other a doctor who cured the sick. Their love for each other also began after the original owner's death. Ye Qingrong herself did not harbor any resentful feelings towards them.
