"It's my fault, I'll go find you some medicine." Only then did Di Jingling finally regain some of her senses.
He gently brushed his long fingers across the corner of her mouth.
"Tangtang, don't be angry, I'll go find you some medicine."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Xiao Tang stood there, so angry that she put her hands on her hips.
The villain may be cute, but if you piss her off, she can easily turn on you. She'll have to be careful when teasing her next time.
[Ding~ Host, the second task of the romance mission has arrived~]
Are you looking forward to it?
The system is such a master of manipulation; she had no expectations whatsoever, and her heart remained calm and undisturbed.
[Stop talking nonsense and just say it.] She couldn't be bothered to waste her expressions on the system.
How to drive a system to madness...
That is, with her increasingly aloof attitude, it can no longer maintain its aloofness.
The second task is to complete three essential couple activities with the main villain within a day.
Xiao Tang was speechless, thinking this was an old trick...
[Kissing, hugging, and piggybacking? Again? Can you please stop being so cliché?]
【No, of course not. Host, you're oversimplifying things. The three things are... going to see a movie together, drawing portraits of each other, and planting a tree that belongs to you both. Isn't that romantic?】
[...]
No!
She didn't find it romantic; in fact, she thought it was unnecessary.
How bored must the system be, or how much love must it have lacked in its past life, to not give it a proper detoxification task and instead make it do a romance task?
What a weirdo!
Outrageous!
Unbelievable!
【You're talking to me about watching movies? Tell me, where did movies come from in ancient times?】
[A profile picture? We don't need profile pictures in this day and age.]
【Hey host, there's no need to get so worked up. Watching a movie can be replaced by watching a play. We don't need profile pictures, but we can draw portraits of each other.】
[Host, we need to be flexible in our actions, right?]
"...Change your head my foot!"
Xiao Tang cursed silently, speechless.
But...
These three things, in the end, are not difficult to accomplish.
The villain just bit her lip, so he'd definitely be willing to do these three things with her.
Soon, Di Jingling's tall figure entered the bedroom.
Close the door.
He was holding a bottle of ointment in his hand.
"What is this...?" Xiao Tang stared at the bottle of ointment that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, expressing a slight doubt.
Let's be clear, you can't just apply plasters anywhere, especially not around the corners of your mouth.
He had already opened the box, tapped it lightly, and then slowly said, "This is floral dew ointment, which Yan Jiu brought from the palace."
(This is a made-up name, please don't take it too seriously!)
She had heard of floral dew ointment before; it was mentioned in books as a beauty treasure used by concubines in the imperial harem, and it was even edible.
However, if the emperor did not bestow the gift, it would be absolutely impossible for anyone to obtain it.
However, given the young emperor's extremely young age, it was absolutely impossible for him to think of bestowing this thing upon her.
The man applied a cool ointment to the corner of her mouth with his fingertips.
The cool, refreshing touch didn't cause Xiao Tang any pain.
The man's face was very close.
We cherish each other's breath.
Xiao Tang stared intently at him, not looking away for a moment.
"What are you looking at?"
"Oh... I think my husband is really handsome." She said indistinctly, and because his lips were being controlled by her, she could only explain with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, the man indeed smiled happily.
It seems he is genuinely happy.
"Hmm, if he's good-looking, you won't look for other young men in the future, right?"
"..."
Is this meme going to never go away?
Let's not bring up that joke anymore, it's a mood killer.
As she slept, Xiao Tang snuggled into his arms and whispered, "My lord, I want to go to the opera. Will you come with me tomorrow?"
She nuzzled against me affectionately.
Unexpectedly, I heard the sound of a man gasping for breath.
His heavy breathing hit her head.
Of course, there was also a slight burning sensation.
"Tangtang, be good and behave yourself."
"……oh."
When do you want to have babies?
"...Huh?" I'll just go to sleep obediently.
Xiao Tang quickly turned over, shrank into the blankets, and pretended to be dead.
The man beside her found her appearance both amusing and helpless.
...
The next day, Xiao Tang never expected that Di Jingling would be willing to skip court for her sake, just to accompany her to the opera.
At this moment, the story of "The Magpie Bridge Fairy" is being performed on the stage.
Sitting in the front row, Xiao Tang suddenly felt a sense of romance in the scene.
Normally, this man wouldn't pay much attention to a play, but today, for some reason, he was watching it with unusual focus.
Xiao Tang nudged his arm with her elbow. "Husband, this is a tragedy. Why are you looking at it so seriously?"
He pursed his lips.
He looked at her silently.
His eyes also held a hint of emotion.
It has become more profound and complex.
He didn't respond, he just held her hand.
His emotions have been fluctuating a lot lately. Perhaps it's because Xiao Tang admitted that she likes him that he feels a little insecure.
Xiao Tang patted the back of his hand, "Husband, let's plant a tree after we finish watching the play."
Di Jingling: ? ? ?
Did he hear me correctly?
Planting trees?
What kind of strange quirk is this?
Xiao Tang was too embarrassed to say anything, after all, it was all because of that damn system!
What kind of trees should we plant?
"Let's plant a cactus, it's easy to grow."
