T-There's a BL Couple! / Friends and... Spousal Similarity?
After all, there are situations where two people, like Cong Yu and Yuan'an Alisa, occupy a table... and there are also situations where only one person is sitting at the table.
So, the Rabbit Man could only look around for an empty seat, preparing to sit at a table with strangers.
"Um..."
Cong Yu hesitated for a moment, squeezed some water out of a clean, damp cloth, and then flicked it towards the Rabbit Man below.
"Thud--"
Rabbit Man: "!!!"
Bird droppings? Or is it a leak?!
Startled, the Rabbit Man immediately looked up and saw Cong Yu waving gently.
"..." During work hours, I went out to eat with an invitation from my boss, only to bump into the big boss...
What should we do?
I need help urgently. (I'm waiting online.)
The Rabbit Man's ears, which had been concealed by a concealment spell, drooped down as he sighed, covering her face.
However, understanding Cong Yu's meaning, she still carried the plate upstairs and came to Cong Yu's table. "Cong... Lord Cong Yu?"
In response, Cong Yu patted the chair next to her, gesturing for her to sit down, and then simply asked, "Were you invited too?"
So, the Rabbit Man and the Yuan'an family have some connection...?
"No, it was the Doctor who received the invitation, but she completely disregarded it. So she gave it to me instead, so I could take the opportunity to touch it..."
"Let me attend the banquet in her place."
As the Rabbit Man spoke, he carefully ate the carrots on his plate, praying that Cong Yu wouldn't assign him any work.
It's a rare opportunity to openly enjoy an expensive banquet on a weekday, so don't suddenly force yourself to do anything.
After all, if it really was Lord Cong Yu's arrangement, she wouldn't have the right to refuse... Of course, she didn't have the right to refuse anyway.
Meanwhile, Yuan'an Alisa looked at the Rabbit Man hesitantly, then waved her hand above her head... Strange, she had a feeling something was there.
Is it just an illusion?
With this question in mind, she looked at Cong Yu and asked, "Cong Yu, who is this?"
This is a rather complex issue.
"Ah, is he/she my... subordinate? Employee?"
Cong Yu spoke somewhat uncertainly, then smiled and reached out to pinch the Rabbit Man's ears, which mortals couldn't touch. "But on that basis, we're friends first and foremost."
"..." The Rabbit Man's face turned bright red instantly as Cong Yu pinched and rubbed it... Suddenly, she thought of a question.
The body that the Doctor gave to Cong Yu before was one that no longer needed to be replaced.
So how exactly was it handled?
--
Cong Yu: Eaten (without compassion)
Chapter 653 There's... there's Nan Tong!
"The readings are perfect, and the rest are completely normal... Your body has naturally returned to the state of a twenty-year-old."
As the Doctor spoke, he tapped the light screen twice, releasing the restraints on Yuan'an Red: "Your grandson is getting married this year, aren't you going to go see him? Even though he's not your biological son."
Saying something like this at this time is rather strange.
"Oh dear, this wasn't originally..."
I wanted to go, but Doctor, you just had to schedule a check-up today, which made it impossible for me to attend the banquet. And even though he's not my biological son, I still treat that little devil like my own. Now my grandson has him in bed like a vegetable, and I, as his grandfather, am quite embarrassed. But then again..."
Yuan'an Red still talks a lot, and he can talk without even taking a breath, which makes you feel very impressed.
That's probably what being a chatterbox is like.
Besides, he had been lying in bed for a very, very long time and hadn't had a chance to speak.
Therefore, it's quite reasonable that he's been talking a lot in recent years.
Cong Yu had already gotten used to it.
However, Doctor who haven't had much experience with such people and are destined not to get along with them are unable to adapt.
Speechless, the Doctor picked at his ear and muttered, "Your good grandson even invited me to a banquet..."
However, the Doctor obviously won't go.
To be honest, although Doctor aren't responsible for earning foreign exchange within the group... earning external funds and recruiting external personnel are all Big Shadow's responsibilities.
However, Doctor sometimes suddenly find themselves in demand, performing surgery on the wealthy and powerful, and then earning a large sum of money directly from the operation.
Ten years without business, then three years of feasting when it opens.
Then someone might ask—what about the remaining seven years?
Of course, it's raised by a group.
Because the Doctor's primary job is still as a researcher for the group, and also the only designated medical staff member with miraculous healing skills who saves strange people's lives.
The Doctor received a great many invitations because this was about the cycle of birth, aging, illness, and death, which humans care about so much, and she had always held a disdainful attitude towards it.
Those with closer relationships can easily arrange for someone to go, as a way of showing that they can still cooperate...
The Doctor simply tore up the invitations of those who just wanted to make an impression; he was very particular about separating personal and professional matters.
Just like this time.
The Yuan'an family was generous with their funding, and the Yuan'an family also had a good relationship with Cong Yu. So the Doctor casually handed the invitation to the Rabbit Man who was visiting the group's headquarters.
Hmm... I gave it to the Rabbit Man.
Doctor:"..."
Hmm, thinking about it carefully, Cong Yu probably went to the banquet too, and now I've sent the Rabbit Man there.
Isn't this a case of reaping what you sow?
"..." In response, while Yuan'an Red muttered his thanks, the Doctor sighed and looked into the distance, as if he could see Cong Yu and the Rabbit Man there.
Unfortunately, there was nothing in that distant place except for the distance itself.
For some reason, she suddenly started pinning her hopes on the magical girls... Hey magical girls around Cong Yu, give me a little push!
Don't let Cong Yu into the trap set by Rabbit Man and Red.
(Hong: Thank you for thinking so highly of me, but I have a class today and am currently teaching a lesson.)
Ah, life...
The Doctor remarked with emotion, then looked at Yuan'an Red, who had walked out of the operating room and was embracing the pink-haired magical girl.
That was Yuan'an Red.
"..."
"Sigh... life..."
The elderly, widowed Doctor once again expressed this sentiment.
--
Meanwhile, the culprit in the "life" lamented by the Doctor is having a private meeting with a married woman.
She is indeed a married woman, and has a daughter.
"So, you're just using your daughter as a shield in the Light Side, while you retreat into the background?"
As Cong Yu spoke, he rested his chin on his hand, not looking at the well-maintained woman opposite him, but staring at his teacup.
In a Japanese teacup, tea leaves float, with a tea stem standing upright in the center. The tea is a beautiful red color, with a halo of light emanating from its edge.
This is black tea... which isn't actually very common in Japan.
However, this is one of the teas that Cong Yu can accept, apart from "beverage-type teas," because the bitterness is not very obvious.
That's quite interesting.
Upon noticing this, the married woman... who was also Dongshang Yahui Xiang's mother, Tosho Mayumi, immediately spoke up, "No, I had no idea."
In response, she picked up the teapot and poured tea for Cong Yu: "The real reason is that Ya Huixiang is capable of handling things on her own."
As he said this, the former head of the Dongshang family sighed softly, "I originally thought that Ya Huixiang's illness was just an illness."
"..." This is unreasonable.
Because that's clearly a mystical side, a "strange illness" from the Inner Side world. Since he knows he has a grudge, he'll naturally think of that grudge.
Cong Yu thought to himself that he would take what the other party said as a simple excuse... but actually he didn't care much.
These are their family matters.
Cong Yu only wanted to know the intricacies of these grudges and resentments, which is why she wanted to ask about Tosho Mayumi.
Then, I met the person in question.
Family matters should naturally be handled by family members, and he would tell Gareth Yuan'an about these things exactly as they were told.
However, from another perspective, Cong Yu realized that the reason for "not realizing there was a grudge" was not only "the loophole in Tosho Mayumi's words".
Maybe she wasn't lying at all.
"May I ask, what grudge do you have against that man?"
In response to Cong Yu's question, Tosho Mayumi replied, "Actually, it wasn't until today that I realized I had such an 'enemy,' because..."
Hesitated
After a moment, a hint of helplessness flashed in Tosho Mayumi's eyes as she spoke, "He seems to be my... love rival."
Cong Yu: "..."
Tosho Mayumi: "..."
Wow, that's amazing!
Cong Yu felt his face contort slightly, and he asked with difficulty, "In other words, Madam, your husband is..."
Does Dongshang Yahui Xiang know about this?
To Cong Yu's words, the young woman shook her head. "No, my husband is a normal person."
"That enemy was my husband's former classmate... When he confessed his feelings, my husband and I were already deeply in love."
"Perhaps in his eyes, I am the one who stole his love?"
As she said this, a hint of indignation appeared on Tosho Mayumi's face. "I only remembered it might be him after seeing the video..."
"I don't even know his name. He suddenly came up to me and harassed me while my husband and I were shopping. I did curse him, but I never expected... at least I can't understand it."
"..." A normal person really shouldn't have thought of that.
Somewhat shocked, Cong Yu pinched her nose hard, forcing herself to understand the logic behind that guy's brain.
But it seemed to have failed, and he couldn't understand it.
Cong Yu's many years of life have not been wasted; he can see that Tosho Mayumi's silence is not fake.
Or rather, although the two hadn't communicated, they had reached some kind of consensus regarding the person controlling the Gu worms.
Joker.
Super Joker!
Chapter 654 Friends and... Husband and Wife Compatibility?
"Ugh, I'm full, but I don't feel like I really enjoyed the food..."
Having eaten his fill, Yaochuan Guang on the sofa, looking languid. "I've decided, I'm going to the seafood market to buy lobsters tomorrow night."
This statement clearly means that the person wants to cook the lobster themselves.
To reiterate, the Wind City Squad's daily life isn't luxurious, but their income is indeed top-tier in the industry.
As long as you don't engage in any investments or start any companies, even if you eat lobster, abalone, sea cucumber, and watermelon every day, you'll never run out of money.
