Chapter 498 The Tenth Mysterious Mission Spoken by the Dog System?

Xiao Tang followed his gaze and it fell on his arm.

The way he grabbed my arm was unexpected; I felt that this man was both arrogant and stubborn.

This stubbornness is strangely kind of cute.

Why are you grabbing me? I didn't go anywhere. Hey, hey, hey, why the change in expression?

[What the heck? Why does he seem to be showing signs of remorse?]

This time, I'm done for.

The man took her small hand and gently placed the back of it to his lips.

His cool breath brushed against the back of her hand.

Cold and desolate.

This feeling travels along the skin, seemingly spreading all the way into the heart.

Xiao Tang stared at him in bewilderment, even feeling that his current appearance was one of deep affection and unwavering devotion, as handsome as a painting.

She blinked in confusion, "Husband, just say what you need to say, don't beat around the bush, we've been married for ages."

Di Jingling then removed those cool lips from the back of her hand.

He slowly raised his head and met her deep eyes. He hummed softly, "Tangtang, it's my fault. I'm petty and immature. I shouldn't have argued with you."

Xiao Tang: ? ? ?

【You're so clever, Xiu'er.】

Xiao Tang really wanted to give him a big thumbs up; he was truly something else.

"My husband, it's just a small matter..."

[No, that's not right. I'm the pregnant one, so why do I feel like my emotions are more stable than his?]

Is this really necessary to create such a stark contrast?

Help!

He grabbed her hand and forced their fingers together.

"Didn't you want to rest? I'll stay with you. I won't do any court business today, I'll just stay with you."

Xiao Tang: "..."

Actually, she wanted to say that there was no need for that.

But it seemed that saying it would ruin the wonderful atmosphere, so she obediently followed him and let him lead her back to their familiar bedroom.

She lay down, and the man took off her shoes and socks.

I tucked the blanket around her.

He sat on the edge of the bed, staring intently at her, and said, "Go to sleep."

The two light, airy words seemed to be telling her to just go to sleep.

Xiao Tang opened her eyes and stared at him, unsure of what to say.

Faced with the man's enigmatic eyes, she finally closed them.

[Please, your gaze is so intense, how am I supposed to sleep?]

He looked away and gazed elsewhere.

[Ah, this child is teachable.]

Xiao Tang would occasionally open her eyes a crack to observe the villain's reaction.

Seeing that his gaze had already shifted elsewhere, she was overjoyed.

The main villain is acting arrogantly again, which is much cuter than when he's clingy.

[Do I have a masochistic streak? No, no, no, I was wrong. Even the clingy villain is kind of cute.]

Xiao Tang felt comforted.

Di Jingling's lips curled slightly.

Extremely satisfied.

A moment later, I heard Xiao Tang's steady breathing.

He slowly turned his head and looked at his wife, who had fallen asleep in no time, and a soft light appeared in his eyes.

As long as he admits his mistakes quickly, Xiao Tang will not dislike him.

...

When Xiao Tang groggily woke up, it was already dark outside.

Di Jingling was nowhere to be seen either.

However, there was a pink dumpling on its body that was quite oblivious to its surroundings, jumping back and forth.

She was indeed woken up by this pink dumpling stepping on her.

He squinted, looking slightly speechless.

[Damn system, have you rebelled? Have I been too good to you?]

The little pink dumpling stopped jumping and shrank back when it saw her glaring at it fiercely.

It weakly said to Xiao Tang, "Well, it's nothing, hehe, host, I'm just here to inform you that the last mission has been assigned. You'll be free soon."

No, I don't want to be freed, please don't let me be freed!

Xiao Tang just wanted to endure in this world until she died.

Even if she might eventually have to return to the modern world, she doesn't want to go back...

The system hadn't expected this guy to look so reluctant to leave, as if he were saying a final farewell to the main villain...

The system's eyes were somewhat empty and dazed. "Host, this last mission is very serious. You... you need to be mentally prepared."

What kind of mental preparation?

This doesn't sound quite right...

The more Xiao Tang listened, the more panicked she became.

It's not going to be some earth-shattering, tear-jerking nonsense mission, is it? If it just creates all sorts of misunderstandings between her and the main villain, she'll choose to kill it.

The system grew increasingly guilty. "Host, I... I'd better not assign it to you now. I'll tell you when you're in a better mood?"

So, they chose to flee.

Something's not right.

You also need to tell her when you're in a good mood that this is absolutely a terrible task, and once the task is assigned...

The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.

In addition, he had already woken up, and now his mind was full of the dog system's words and his guilty expression.

Squeak—

The door was pushed open.

Ruyi entered the room and saw that she was awake. She smiled and said, "Your Highness, you're awake! The Prince just sent me to check on you. He said he would prepare dinner if you were awake. Are you hungry?"

Xiao Tang didn't actually have much of an appetite.

After all, I'm in a bad mood no matter what...

"Serve dinner."

Even if she doesn't eat, the baby in her belly still needs nutrition.

This was her first pregnancy, and she didn't have much experience, but her emotions were definitely being passed on to the baby.

Especially with such a sad and uneasy feeling...
