Ex-girlfriend that Tang Yu didn't even know existed.
Xie's mother felt even more aggrieved; the words of reproach reached her mouth, but she swallowed them back.
After all, so many years had passed, and what happened back then, she had already left behind.
It was just that in her heart, there was still a small feeling of regret.
"It's fine, aunt. If you have any resentment against my father, tell me, when I get home, I'll help you insult him."
Following the principle of "better someone else than me," Tang Yu decided to sell out his own father.
"Forget it, there's not much to say, what happened, happened."
Xie's mother sighed deeply and fixed her gaze on Tang Yu's face.
"Is this face the result of makeup? It doesn't seem like it."
"It's a complicated story, aunt. I just ask that you keep the secret. If my identity gets revealed, the situation would be quite serious, and the Xie family couldn't take responsibility for it."
Tang Yu spoke in an unusually serious tone as a warning.
Seeing the beautiful eyes of Xie's mother, full of curiosity as she looked at him.
Tang Yu knew that if a woman's curiosity wasn't satisfied, she could hold a grudge against him.
Considering his father's love debts and the future mother-in-law status of Xie's mother.
Tang Yu pointed to the sky, and Xie's mother suddenly understood why the Tang family had recently joined the national team, which had caused envy among the powerful families in the country.
"Young and talented, much better than your father when he was young."
Xie's mother smiled and praised him.
"Yes, aunt, you picked the wrong person."
Tang Yu fully agreed.
"How? Are you implying that if we had been in the same generation, I should have met you?"
A playful smile appeared on Xie's mother's face.
"If I were from the same generation as you, I would have definitely courted you."
Tang Yu didn't pretend innocence and directly complimented her.
"You're much smarter than your father."
Xie's mother felt quite pleased with Tang Yu's compliment.
Her eyes clouded for a moment, remembering, for no reason, the man who, in her time, had also been so bold with her.
After asking him some questions about the Tang family, she stopped talking about the topic.
What's past is past. She looked at Tang Yu and smiled.
"What do you think of my Jiujiu? And that girl named Jiang who was with you today, what's your relationship with her? I remember you have a fiancée in Su Hang, right?"
Even with Tang Yu's shamelessness, he didn't know how to respond, and they both fell into an awkward silence.
After a moment, Xie's mother spoke slowly.
"Some answers can't be given immediately, I'm not in a rush, but anyway, I hope you treat Jiujiu well. You can tell that she knows nothing about feelings and practically has no social experience."
"Whether you're together or not, I just want you not to hurt her."
"Don't worry about that, aunt. I won't do such a thing."
Tang Yu smiled and promised.
"Then it's fine, go home. If we talk too much, my husband might start to suspect."
Xie's mother smiled resignedly, turned around, and walked towards the house.
Watching Xie's mother's charming figure as she walked away, Tang Yu could imagine, even with his toes, how difficult it must have been for his father to choose between the two.
"If both are true loves, but you can only choose one, doesn't that mean you will inevitably hurt the other? Really, how cruel."
Tang Yu sighed.
When they returned to the house, they chatted for a while sitting down.
Then, Tang Yu and the others stood up to say goodbye. Xie Jiujiu thought for a moment and decided to follow them. As they walked, she turned around and shouted:
"Grandma, mom, next week I'm coming home to sleep!"
"Be careful on the road!"
The elderly woman smiled and waved her hand, bidding farewell to her granddaughter and the others.
When Tang Yu and his group had left, Xie's father asked, "What did you talk about with that young man?"
"What else could it be? A mother-in-law interrogating her son-in-law."
Xie's mother joked.
"There's still nothing certain between them."
Xie's father didn't have a great opinion of Tang Yu.
After all, in this world, there aren't many fathers-in-law who look favorably at their sons-in-law.
When they left the Xie family's house.
Sitting in the back seat, Xie Jiujiu asked with a smile: "Tang, what did my mom ask you when she called you?"
"Your mom said you eat a lot at home and don't work, so she wants to give you to me as a maid."
Tang Yu replied laughing while driving.
"Maid? What's that?"
Xie Jiujiu, who never read novels or watched period dramas, really didn't know.
Jiang Caixia leaned close to her ear and explained it to her softly.
As soon as she understood, Xie Jiujiu yelled angrily: "Tang, you're a scoundrel!"
"Your mom really said that, if you don't believe me, ask her."
"Well, I'll ask her!"
Xie Jiujiu took out her phone and was about to call her mom to confirm it.
Seeing that this fool was really going to do it, Tang Yu hurriedly gave in.
"I was wrong, I lied to you. Your mom said she liked Jiang very much and wants to adopt her as a daughter, and that I should become her servant, even having to serve them until they sleep."
"Ah, that I like. From now on, you'll be Jiang's and my servant for life, but sleeping with us, that's never going to happen."
"That can't be. If you want a bull and a horse to work until they die, what should you give them?"
"What should you give them?"
"Grass!"
"…"
---------------------------
Since his last mission failed, Ye Qingshan had been in quite a depressed state for half a month.
Every day, he felt less enthusiasm for his work, but instead, he went out to have fun more often.
He wanted to try all sorts of things, even going to an internet café to play video games all night.
It's not that Ye Qingshan was trying to self-destruct.
But knowing that his next mission would probably mean his death.
He decided to enjoy it to the fullest so he wouldn't die full of regrets.
At that moment, he was sitting in a traditional restaurant drinking tea with a girl who looked and had quite an attractive figure.
"Darling, try this."
The girl's name was Zhang Yuqi, a name almost identical to a famous actress with a bad reputation.
With a smile in her eyes, she used chopsticks to bring a piece of venison to Ye Qingshan.
They had been dating for three days.
She was an unconditional fan of Ye Qingshan, sending him dozens of private messages every day.
She finally managed to catch his attention.
Finding that the girl wasn't bad at all, he decided to give her a chance and try dating her.
Receiving the food his girlfriend offered him.
Ye Qingshan smiled happily, feeling more at ease.
This kind of life… seemed quite pleasant.
At that moment, a cold voice rang in his ear.
"A new mission has been posted. In one month, win the skydiving championship. Reward: 1/2 of the EUV lithography machine design."
"Special warning: if you fail this mission, the system will issue a death penalty. The host must complete the task at all costs."
After hearing this.
Ye Qingshan, who had been enjoying a moment of peace, froze.
It was as if Jotaro Kujo had stopped time and was hitting his heart with an "Ora Ora" for a full minute.
An extreme cold ran through his entire body, leaving his hands and feet frozen despite the summer heat.
He didn't remember anything after that.
"Qingshan, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Ye Qingshan had suddenly become weird, Zhang Yuqi asked with a concerned look on her face.
