As soon as Tang Yu's hand touched Xiao Shaoyin's palm, the system's voice rang out:
"Host! The whitewashing progress has reached 70%!"
Listening to the system's excited prompt tone, Tang Yu looked at Xiao Shaoyin deeply and couldn't help but sigh in his heart -
"It seems that I was right to refuse..."
The soft touch was the same as always. When Tang Yu held Xiao Shaoyin's hand, he could feel her fingertips gently rubbing against his palm. However, when he looked over, Xiao Shaoyin just gave him a slimy smile, as if nothing had happened.
Finally, when Xiao Shaoyin pulled him up and then let go of his hand, Tang Yu was still a little uncomfortable.
Tang Yu was silent, and Tang Yu understood.
He probably got screwed too.
That's why when I heard the emperor's oral order, I subconsciously said no.
He knew that this silly fox was not very happy when he was in the capital.
After all, he was so busy that he had little time to spend with the silly fox.
Being an official here is a leisurely job, at least I can have more time to spend with this silly fox.
Tang Yu seemed to have suddenly figured it out, with a faint smile on his lips, and then he invited Shao Yin and the protagonist to have dinner.
"Come on, eat everything!"
"good."
"Okay." The protagonist was really hungry.
But he didn't know if he was wrong, he felt that Tang Yu's wife seemed to be treating him...
Quite enthusiastic?
This was naturally not the protagonist's illusion, because in Xiao Shaoyin's eyes, it was just Tang Yu's colleagues coming to her house to have a meal together. As Tang Yu's wife, she must of course treat the guests well.
Therefore, Xiao Shaoyin's face revealed a hint of kindness. Seeing that Tang Yu and his benefactor were enjoying their meal, she even suggested taking out some wine from the wine cellar to liven up the atmosphere.
"Okay! Shao Yin, you're right. It's dinner time anyway, so it's okay to drink a little!"
Tang Yu nodded and agreed very readily, but he pulled Xiao Shaoyin down as she was about to stand up. Then he leaned close to Xiao Shaoyin's ear and said, "Let the servants get it. You just sit down."
He hated the kind of domineering, evil men who always ordered their wives to do this and that while they themselves drank to their heart's content with others at the table.
He can never be that kind of man!
Xiao Shaoyin was very pleased with Tang Yu's attitude of cherishing her, so she nodded and called a few servants to go to the wine cellar to get wine.
However, the tender and sweet scene between Tang Yu and Xiao Shaoyin made the protagonist choose to bury his head in eating. As expected——
After seeing so many loving couples, I don’t feel very happy about it myself.
The protagonist tried hard to swallow the sour feeling in his heart. In fact, when he thought about it again, he just felt a little envious.
How wonderful it is that no matter where Tang Yu is, Mrs. Tang Yu will never leave him.
Thinking of this, he felt even more guilty.
He actually wanted to introduce his cousin to Tang Yu? Was he going to hit his head against the wall?
Tsk! He's totally wasting his time!
So when the servants brought the wine to the table, the protagonist drank it even more happily, and even Tang Yu was infected and drank two more glasses.
So much so that when Tang Yu and the protagonist got drunk, Xiao Shaoyin was probably the only one who could maintain some clarity and rationality. Because the wine of this world was no different from water to them, he could still look at Tang Yu nonchalantly while drinking, and his eyes could gradually describe Tang Yu's face.
In the flickering candlelight, Xiao Shaoyin's eyes seemed to be shining as she looked at Tang Yu.
Focused and serious.
Not long after, the protagonist's cheeks turned slightly red after drinking, and he couldn't wait to tell Tang Yu his innermost words.
"Brother! I originally thought that you and I could show our talents in Chaoshang... but unfortunately..."
"After all, I owe you."
Tang Yu was also drunk, but when he heard this, he said seriously: "No! This should be yours! This is your future..."
Even when Tang Yu was drunk, he remembered clearly that he was just a cannon fodder, and the protagonist was the truly amazing one!
So these are the ones that the protagonist should attack!
The plot content that was deeply engraved in his memory made Tang Yu say those words very firmly.
This! This is the professional quality of being a tasker!
The protagonist kept shaking his head. "I know you have a kind heart, but you don't want to take credit for it... I saved that white fox when I was young, but if you hadn't led me to the back mountain, I wouldn't have even seen it. Just when I wanted to skin the white fox, you stopped me, saying it was an auspicious sign and absolutely not something I should do."
"That's why the jade pendant that inexplicably appeared in the cabin later has a deeper connection with you! If you hadn't come to the cabin so often to bring medicine and food to the white fox, I'm afraid given my father's temper, locking me up at home all day to study, the white fox would have starved to death long ago!"
Tang Yu's nerves, which were numbed by alcohol, suddenly showed a little clarity, and his eyelids even twitched. However, because the alcohol was too strong, Tang Yu was unable to stop the protagonist from continuing to speak in time.
The protagonist became increasingly agitated as he spoke: "If I hadn't left my words unfinished, you and your wife wouldn't have had a rift over those vague words! It's all my fault!"
suddenly--
A wine glass slipped from Xiao Shaoyin's slender hand. He listened blankly to the sound of the glass breaking, and finally looked at Tang Yu fixedly.
The sound of the wine glass smashing to the ground sobered Tang Yu and the protagonist attacker up a bit. Upon meeting Xiao Shaoyin's shocked and bewildered eyes, Tang Yu finally came to his senses.
