Yu Sheng rubbed his hands together, looking embarrassed but clearly somewhat tempted.
"What's wrong with that?"
Jing Zhe laughed and said, "What kind of relationship do we have? What's the big deal about letting Uncle drink some strong liquor? Besides, if Uncle really feels bad about drinking strong liquor, then I'll come to see Xiangrong more often in the future, and we'll just eat at home every time! Also, I haven't paid Xiangrong for writing the story for me yet, so drinking a little liquor is nothing!"
"I...don't want any payment!"
Yu Xiangrong raised her head and looked at Jing Zhe.
The reason she agreed to help Jing Zhe write this story was twofold: firstly, she really liked it, and secondly, it was Jing Zhe who asked for her help; she wouldn't have agreed to help anyone else.
So it wasn't for any reward at all—did he think of himself as someone who wrote stories for him to make money off him?
Thinking of this possibility, Yu Xiangrong became worried, and her large, blinking eyes instantly filled with tears.
Seeing this, Jing Zhe laughed and said, "I know Xiang Rong's personality very well. Xiang Rong doesn't care about any reward for helping me, but I feel very bad that Xiang Rong has gone to so much trouble for me. So I'm giving you some strong liquor as a way of showing my respect. Please don't refuse, Uncle!"
Hearing Jing Zhe say that he "understands" her very well, Yu Xiangrong suddenly felt much better, and her gaze towards Jing Zhe became peaceful again.
