This was after the tea party he had with a group of young girls at the Rose Manor.
Gu Xinghe once again experienced the true essence of a tea party—
He drank tea by himself, while the sounds of Field and Eris catching up served as background "music," allowing him to peacefully "watch the show."
In fact, both Eris and Field knew each other's reliability as partners.
But every time they meet, they inevitably start arguing.
Moreover, this "incompatibility" in their personalities made them even more aware—
Their arguments were always unavoidable.
However, although Eris himself knew that he and Field were quite incompatible, they would inevitably bicker every time they met.
However, he never found it annoying and was even more enthusiastic about teasing Field with words.
On the other hand, Field was obviously aware of Eris's thoughts, but he didn't care.
Rather, Field still hoped to persuade Eris through this kind of verbal communication and give him a "reform".
Therefore, even though they both knew that in the end, neither of them could gain the upper hand in these conversations.
Moreover, their attitudes and personalities will not change afterward.
But Field and Eris both really enjoyed these seemingly pointless conversations.
After all, in Eris's view, aside from legitimately developing his power, having his spies spread throughout the world was an activity he enjoyed.
His other few hobbies—
One was to get Gu Xinghe to agree to a raise, so as to "scam" more money out of him.
The other was having daily chats with Field.
Yes, for Eris, the conversation with Field was certainly not an argument or a quarrel.
It was just a very normal "friendly" exchange between partners.
After all, what activity could compare to this kind of playful banter that elevates their relationship?
During this process, Gu Xinghe thoroughly enjoyed being a bystander watching the show.
When he discovered that he was the only one leisurely drinking tea at this "tea party".
He also poured a cup of tea for Field and Eris, who were busy arguing.
However, the conversation between Field and Eris at this time seemed quite "intense" on the surface.
They were actually paying attention to Gu Xinghe's movements.
It was precisely because they had seen that Gu Xinghe did not seem impatient with their "argument".
Instead, they had the idea of watching them as spectators and having fun.
In addition, they did indeed have a long-standing grudge.
That's why this "friendly greeting" between partners after a long separation was staged in front of Gu Xinghe.
Now, after the two finally exchanged greetings and reminisced about their long-awaited reunion, they finally reunited.
The two, who were "tired" of arguing, watched Gu Xinghe pour tea for them and tacitly chose to "temporarily cease hostilities".
"Thank you, boss! I just had a long-awaited reunion with Field and my mouth is a little dry from talking."
Eris picked up the tea that Gu Xinghe had poured and did not refuse or stand on ceremony.
After taking a sip, he gave Gu Xinghe a thumbs-up to express his gratitude and appreciation for the tea.
"Mentor, I can do this kind of thing next time."
But unlike Eris's ruthlessness,
While happily picking up the cup of tea, Field's tone held a hint of hesitation.
"When you pour the tea, you wouldn't mind pouring me a cup too, would you?"
Upon hearing this, Eris, who disliked activity, moved closer to Field and asked in a somewhat ingratiating manner.
"Then I will definitely prepare that cup of tea for you in advance."
Field responded to this with a somewhat forced smile.
"No, no, no! I don't want it anymore!"
Eris shook his head violently and moved further away from Field.
After all, if Field really intends to keep this promise.
Eris had no doubt that he was actually handing him a cup of tea-flavored poison.
He remembered that Field had actually worked as Gu Xinghe's alchemy assistant for a period of time in his previous life.
During that period, the atmosphere between the two really resembled that of a mentor and student.
Their research at the time focused on poisons of various flavors, demonstrating an extreme level of care for the victims.
But seeing Eris's intense reaction, Gu Xinghe, with a mischievous grin, added fuel to the fire.
“Eris and Field, you two should get along better.”
Gu Xinghe patted Eris and Field on the shoulders with a friendly expression.
The expression on his face conveyed the message: "This is for the sake of harmonious relationships among my teammates!"
"Okay, mentor."
My mentor is right.
Regardless of what Gu Xinghe said, Field would usually agree and give in immediately.
But what does it mean to "get along well," and how should one "get along well" with Eris?
However, this was all determined by Field himself.
Yufield simply accepted Gu Xinghe's suggestion without offering any objections or disagreements.
Eris, however, knew perfectly well that Gu Xinghe's words were not meant as well-intentioned comfort.
This is someone who was originally just watching the show and having fun, but now he's personally taking part in it, wanting to see an even more pleasing performance unfold before him.
Because in his past life, Eris remembered when he "argued" with Field.
Gu Xinghe has done similar "mediation" actions many times before.
But clearly, none of these attempts to "mediate" were ever successful.
Although if Gu Xinghe truly wanted the two of them to stop "arguing," it would be an easy thing to do.
But the reason for the failure was clearly that Gu Xinghe's "mediation" was not sincere.
Therefore, this attempt to "mediate" has never succeeded and always only makes the situation more serious.
Knowing that Gu Xinghe didn't genuinely want to mediate the fight, Eris didn't hesitate to criticize him.
"Hey, boss, be reasonable! I was the one who was threatened with poisoned tea by Field just now, wasn't I?"
"I didn't say that. I said I would definitely give you the best hospitality."
Unlike his behavior in front of Gu Xinghe, Field was clearly more aggressive when he was with Eris.
