Make up a story
The sky gradually darkened, and the wind grew cooler, gently blowing against the smooth outside of the tent.
On the flat ground, a group of people sat around a barbecue grill covered with food, and various aromas slowly rose from the grill.
Yu Yueyue sat next to Shang Xu and watched the whole process of the man grilling the food. He skillfully brushed a layer of oil on the tender chicken wings, then he patiently turned the chicken wings over and over again, and sprinkled a layer of pepper on the outside of the tender chicken wings.
Her eyes fell on the fragrant chicken wings and she swallowed uncontrollably.
It tasted so good. She was so hungry.
Then, Shang Xu picked up the roasted chicken wings and handed them to the greedy woman next to him, saying with a doting tone, "Here, wife."
System 009 instantly said with joy: "Pain Free Value +2. Host, please work hard to get the male protagonist to call you that."
Yu Yueyue was suddenly stunned and began to doubt what she had just heard.
Wife? From Shang Xu?!
She took the grilled chicken wings from his hand with a touch of flattery, her lips pausing as she said, "Thank... Thank you, husband."
Shang Xu chuckled and curled his lips and said, "Wife, whatever you want, I will bake it for you."
The man's voice was low, with a smile at the end, which was particularly seductive and made her feel confused.
Yu Yueyue pointed at a pile of evenly sized slices of meat in a panic and said, "Honey, I want to grill some meat."
"Okay." He lowered his head, smiled and skewered the meat slices.
System 009: "Pain Free Value +4."
Yu Yueyue really admired Shang Xu's superb acting skills. If she hadn't been with Shang Xu for a long time, she would have almost been fooled by his gentle appearance.
The worry that Shang Xu would be exposed was instantly erased from her mind.
In the barbecue grill, the temperature of the charcoal gradually rises.
The three couples around were talking and laughing, happily chatting about their past love. Yu Yueyue listened while biting chicken wings with relish.
Xiao Meng recalled every moment she had with Ah Yi, a bright smile playing on her lips. "Ah Yi and I have been friends since we were little. When we were little, I always liked to bully him. But I never imagined that the little boy I made cry as a child would one day become my lifelong protector..."
Listening to what Xiao Meng said, tears welled up in Yu Yueyue's eyes. She envied such love.
And she missed her grandma so much...
Shang Xu turned to look at her, and noticing her emotions, he unconsciously pursed his lips.
Bibi's eyes would occasionally fall on her Aze. With a happy heart, her lips curled up slightly. "Aze and I were high school classmates. We didn't talk much and rarely interacted. But one time, when I sang on the stage of a New Year's Eve party, he noticed me..."
Yu Yueyue was biting a piece of meat skewer in her mouth and listening to other people's love stories with a serious look on her face.
At this moment, a glint flashed in Bibi's eyes, and she asked curiously: "Yueyue, what is your story with Shang Xu?"
Others looked over there.
Yu Yueyue stopped chewing the skewers, then she quickly glanced at Shang Xu and pretended to be relaxed. She smiled and said, "Shang Xu and I have known each other for a long time."
Now, the people around were even more curious.
Shang Xu turned to look at her with interest in his eyes.
He was curious about what she would say.
At this moment, Yu Yueyue's mind was flooded with a lot of material. She said slowly: "On my eighteenth birthday, many people came to my birthday party and wished me happiness forever..."
She imagined the scene at that time and continued, "I smiled brightly at that time, partly because of the blessings from others and partly because of Shang Xu's arrival."
Hearing the key figure's appearance, the others couldn't help but hold their breath.
Shang Xu's gaze was fixed on her, his dark eyes filled with some unknown emotions.
Yu Yueyue propped up her chin with one hand and said seriously, "Shang Xu was wearing a black suit that day. He was tall and had long legs. He looked so bright in the crowd. I didn't know if it was the light in my eyes or if he was really shining."
Hearing these words from her mouth, the others wanted to laugh. They all felt that Yu Yueyue was particularly innocent and a little cute.
Several men looked at Yu Yueyue with smiles in their eyes. Shang Xu felt inexplicably unhappy, and he felt an indescribable jealousy in his heart.
Yu Yueyue frowned slightly, her tone somewhat downcast, "At that time, Shang Xu handed the gift in his hand to my father, and he turned and left. I quickly ran out to look for him."
The people around seemed to be listening to a story, and the more they listened, the more fascinated they became.
Yu Yueyue immersed herself in the imagined scene and whispered, "In the deserted corridor, the man's tall and superior figure was getting closer and closer, and my heart was pounding. I didn't expect Shang Xu to return to China to give me a gift. When I was in school, I always secretly saw him and found reasons to get close to him, but he was very cold to me. Later, he went abroad to study, and I didn't hear from him anymore."
The women present could all empathize with what Yu Yueyue said, and they looked at Yu Yueyue with eyes full of heartache.
Yu Yueyue continued, "The man in the aisle suddenly stopped, turned around and looked down at me. I lowered my head slightly, not daring to look at him. Then he said in a low, pleasant voice, 'Happy Birthday, Yueyue.' When I looked up, Shang Xu turned and left. Watching that tall figure gradually walk away, I still couldn't calm down for a long time. That was the first time he called me that..."
The story told by the woman next to him was so exciting that Shang Xu listened with one eye closed. He never expected that she could say so many words seriously.
He still underestimated her abilities.
Seeing that Shang Xu's expression didn't change, Yu Yueyue thought he was angry, so she quickly ended the topic and said with a smile: "I won't go into the details of what happened next. Actually, Shang Xu has always liked me, but he is not the type to express it. Later, he took the initiative to approach me, and then we got together, and then we got married."
Xiao Meng smiled and joked, "It turns out Yueyue has a handsome and loyal husband."
Hearing this, Yu Yueyue smiled embarrassedly.
Bibi, who already has two children, raised her lips and asked, "So when are you two planning on having a big fat baby?"
Give birth to a baby?!
The topic spanned such a wide range that Yu Yueyue's brain was about to explode.
And some indescribable images also flooded into her mind, about her and Shang Xu...
Yu Yueyue's face suddenly turned hot and she found it difficult to answer this question.
Then, a deep and magnetic voice answered the question for her.
"We don't have such an idea for now." Shang Xu coughed lightly, then paused for a few seconds and unconsciously lowered his voice, "Also, do as she wishes."
What does it mean to do as she wishes? Is he reminding her?!
Yu Yueyue couldn't help but feel a tightness in her heart.
Xiao Meng and Bibi smiled at each other, with an expression of being shocked.
Then, the people around ended the topic and talked about other things.
The wind was getting colder at night, and Yu Yueyue shrank unconsciously.
Suddenly, a coat was thrown over her back, blocking most of the cold wind.
The bony hands buttoned a few buttons on her coat. Shang Xu's eyes softened a bit, and his voice was low and lazy. "Are you still cold?"
Yu Yueyue looked up when she heard the voice and suddenly her eyes met his. Her breathing couldn't help but stop.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Shang Xu thought she was cold and confused. He gently touched her cold forehead and frowned slightly, "Do you want to go back to the tent?"
His tone was a little anxious.
The man's bony hands were exceptionally warm, and felt very comfortable against her chilly forehead. Yu Yueyue was stunned for a long moment before she came to her senses. She paused, shook her head, and said, "It's okay, it's not too cold. I want to stay here and chat with everyone."
Shang Xu didn't say anything else and continued to sit next to her.
Somehow, Yu Yueyue suddenly felt very at ease.
Under the dark night sky, a group of people gathered around the barbecue grill and chatted for a long time, having a great time.
It was getting late, so each couple returned to their respective tents.
Although the tent can protect against the cold wind at night, it is a bit cramped inside.
Shang Xu sat inside the tent and signaled the woman not far away to come over with his eyes.
Yu Yueyue took off her coat, walked towards him confused, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
He narrowed his eyes and said casually, "I'm tired."
“…”
Yu Yueyue thought he called her over for something important, but it turned out that he wanted her to give him a massage.
The bastard still couldn't forget his bad habit of ordering her around.
However, he had done a lot today and had been nice to her, so she was kind enough to give him a massage to relax him.
In addition, she also gave Shang Xu a nickname, Shang Xiu Gou, because she felt that Shang Xu looked like a puppy when he smiled, which was very cute, making her want to hug him and pinch his face.
But she didn't dare.
Also, it's not nice and disrespectful for her to always call him a dog. In fact, Shang Xu is not... that bad.
Yu Yueyue squatted behind the man, put her hands on his shoulders, and said sweetly: "Husband, you have worked hard today. Let Yueyue give you a massage."
System 009: "Pain Free Value +1."
But this time, the massage man seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for her and made a lot of demands.
"Press it to the right."
"left."
“…”
"Press it further to the left." He said with a pursed lip, his tone cold.
Yu Yueyue gritted her teeth and said, "Okay."
After the massage, the two turned off the lights and went to sleep. Because the space in the tent was not very large, the distance between them was a little close.
It was late at night and the air was quiet.
Although she was very sleepy, Yu Yueyue couldn't fall asleep, which made her a little upset.
At this moment, System 009 suddenly spoke: "Host, please hold the male protagonist and sleep for ten minutes within five minutes. If the task is successful, the host will gain ten points of pain relief. Otherwise, the host will receive a pain penalty."
The sudden appearance of the task made Yu Yueyue even more upset.
Anyway, Shang Xu was asleep, so it was okay for her to hold him for ten minutes.
Yu Yueyue quickly moved closer to him, hugged him carefully, and waited for ten minutes to pass.
Suddenly, the man's hard chest resonated with a low, lazy voice: "What's wrong?"
Yu Yueyue's body stiffened instantly, and she panicked, "The wind is a bit strong, I... I'm a little cold."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man suddenly exerted force, pulled her into his arms, and spoke in a low and lazy voice: "Be good, go to sleep."
Yu Yueyue stuck to him obediently, not daring to move.
She sniffed the pleasant sandalwood scent on him and fell asleep before she heard the system sound.
System 009: "Mission successful, pain relief value +10."
In the quiet air, the sound of shallow breathing could be heard...
