This Circle Is So Messy

[On parents arguing:

When I was young, I would unconditionally side with my mother, feeling that everything was my father's fault.
As I grew up and gradually experienced my mother's suffocating behavior, I began to understand and empathize with my father.
Now, I realize both of them have issues!

My father: Quiet, introverted, and stubborn.
My mother: Sarcastic and emotionally unstable.
And me, the child: Inherited all... the flaws of both.
Quiet, sarcastic the moment I open my mouth, both introverted and stubborn, and emotionally volatile.

My father: Getting more and more hot-tempered.
My mother: High desire for control, and constantly nagging.
And me, their child: Getting more and more hot-tempered, and also very prone to nagging.

Initially, I thought my father was sick.
Then I realized that wasn't right, and thought my mother was sick.
In the end, I realized all three of us in this family are sick.

Summary of the process of parents arguing:
Early stage: Pitying mother.
Middle stage: Understanding father.
Final stage: Truly a family.]

The ancestors listened in a daze, their expressions cracking slightly. "Birds of a feather flock together" was indeed true. Everyone wiped their faces and continued to look at the sky screen. They were used to it; no matter what shocking words the sky screen uttered, they were no longer surprised.

A pleasant female voice rang out from the sky screen:
["Do you think there is pure friendship between men and women?"]
[A male voice replied: "Of course, aren't we an example?"]
[The girl said half-jokingly: "Then guess why I don't mind sharing the milk tea you drank?"]
[The guy replied casually: "Why else? Because you have no money but still want to drink milk tea."]
[The girl: "..."]

Everyone: "..."
Alright, brother, it's no wonder you don't have a wife. We can only say that girl has poor eyesight!

[I knew this circle was messy, but I didn't expect it to be this messy!]

The crowd's eyes shone like torches, their ears sharp. Everyone was curious: "What? What is messy? What's chaotic?" A wave of doubt crossed the ancestors' minds. Like gossip-mongers, they perked up, focusing intently on the sky screen. They wanted to see what shocking content the sky screen was going to drop next.

[Originally, Pomelo and Orange were a deeply in love couple, living a sweet life every day that made single people envious. They even had a chubby son (Grapefruit).

But gradually, Orange grew tired of this life and tired of Pomelo. So, one morning, Orange secretly packed his bags and fled, deciding to abandon his wife and son to seek new happiness. Not long after, Orange found a new love, Mandarin, and they had a child (Tangelo).

But things didn't stop there; they began to develop in a melodramatic direction that spiraled out of control, like a runaway horse. It all started with Grapefruit, the son of Orange and Pomelo. Ever since he knew his father had abandoned his mother and him for someone else, Grapefruit secretly swore to take revenge for his mother when he grew up.

That day came quickly, and Grapefruit's revenge plan began. He also chose an early morning, taking advantage of Orange being out, to sneak into the room and engage in a relationship with his nominal "stepmother" (Mandarin), resulting in a new species (Orangelo).

When Orange found out his new wife and his old son had hooked up behind his back, he was furious. Orange decided to go all out... He turned around and had a relationship with a secret lover (Buddha's Hand), giving birth to "Lemon."

But the matter still wasn't over, and the truth was even more dramatic: Orange's true parentage was actually a crossbreed of "Pomelo" and "Mandarin." In other words, Orange's ex-ex and ex were actually his biological parents. This relationship can only be described as more melodramatic than a soap opera.

So the question is: What should Grapefruit call Lemon?]

Everyone: "..."
The ancestors' faces were blank, their eyes empty, their thoughts temporarily in disarray. This was truly too messy; they couldn't untangle it at all. After trying for a while, they realized that with their brain capacity, they couldn't comprehend it, so they decided to give up to save themselves the headache.

["The Dao of Ruthlessness cures love-brain, novels didn't lie to me."

Abroad, a young sect leader famous for his exorcism skills fell in love with a female author who specialized in writing novels about dark demons during an exorcism ritual. For love, he did not hesitate to abandon his career as a sect leader, returning to secular life to live a peaceful life with her.

When the church found out, they were deeply shocked. They believed this promising future Pope had been possessed by a demon during the exorcism, leading to such a crazy decision. The current Pope personally came several times to "exorcise" the young sect leader, but was rejected. After many failed attempts to persuade him, the Pope could only sigh helplessly and return.

It is said that this young sect leader was a strong candidate for the next Pope. One can only say, the empire ultimately fell to a beauty. Heroes do not love the empire, only beauties. This is truly the plot of "The Demonic Sect Holy Maiden seduces the Sect Holy Son to fall from grace" stepping into reality!]

Everyone: "???"
They didn't understand, but they respected it. What was the Dao of Ruthlessness? A demonic maiden kidnapping a Holy Son? What nonsense was the sky screen spouting again? Ah, so it was just a story about a young man with a bright future falling in love with a woman of unequal social status, even one from an opposing stance.

Thinking of this, some couldn't help but mock, believing the young man had a brain issue. Choosing a beauty over an empire was truly regrettable. If it were them? Of course, they would choose the empire. With the empire, would they lack beauties? They could play however they wanted. The scheming ones thought this must be a "beauty trap" by his rivals, since the young man was about to become Pope. Regardless, everyone had their own choices; some valued power, while others only needed a beauty by their side.
