Tang Yu carried Su Muyue on his back, his face dark as he walked into the house.
Tang Gangcheng frowned and scolded him.
"How much did you make Muyue drink? How did she get this drunk?"
"She wanted to drink herself. She couldn't handle more than three glasses."
"Bullshit! Muyue never goes to those places to drink. Don't think I can't guess what you're up to, you brat."
Tang Gangcheng scolded him unceremoniously.
They were both men; how could he not see through Tang Yu's little schemes?
"…"
Tang Yu wanted to cry. Didn't his old man see the lipstick marks all over his face? Could he have put them there himself?
Back home, Tang Yu's mother helped Su Muyue and said, "I'll take Muyue to your room to rest. Next time, don't take her out drinking."
"Let her rest in the guest room. Why take her to his room?" Tang Gangcheng said discontentedly.
His wife was good in every way, except she spoiled their son too much.
She had been the one pushing for this marriage alliance at home; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to bring himself to do it.
Tang Yu's mother smiled and nodded, understanding her husband's meaning.
Tang Gangcheng looked at Tang Yu again and said earnestly, "I know you've liked her for years, but some things can't be rushed. It has to be voluntary."
"If you try any funny business again, I'll break your legs."
"You're overthinking it, old man. I'm not interested in her, really."
"Then who are you interested in? That girl from the Wang family? Or Qin Ke from the Qin family?" Tang Gangcheng raised an eyebrow.
"…"
Tang Yu felt that either choice was a dead end.
Among the four major families, besides the Tang family, the other three all had beauties that Ye Chen had his eyes on.
You could say this guy conquered the three families by seducing their women.
This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
This was the most ridiculous part of feel-good novels.
Would a prestigious family really throw away their dignity?
Allowing their daughters to serve one man along with other women, and even piling family resources on him?
Nonsense!
After being lectured by his father for a long time, Tang Yu finally escaped a beating.
Back in his room, he washed up and then lay down on his bed worth tens of thousands, falling into a sweet sleep.
The life of a rich person is just so plain and boring.
…
After Tang Yu's mother left the guest room, Su Muyue, who had been asleep, slowly opened her eyes.
She was already sober.
Or rather, she hadn't been that drunk to begin with.
In the car, although she was drunk, she still had some rationality.
But under the influence of alcohol, she didn't want to stay rational.
She wanted to follow her instincts, to do what she didn't dare to do, to say what she didn't dare to say.
She even tried to take off her mask, just like that guy.
But now that she was completely sober, she felt a bit embarrassed.
She just wanted to talk to him, so how did she end up… kissing him?
"Oh no, I won't be able to face anyone tomorrow."
She covered her burning face and sighed softly. She shouldn't have drunk.
Thinking about it, she tossed and turned in bed until about three in the morning before falling asleep.
Early the next morning, a knock on the door woke her from her sleep.
"Muyue, are you up? It's time for breakfast."
Tang Yu's mother's voice came from outside the door.
"Okay, Auntie."
Su Muyue rubbed her sleepy eyes and reluctantly got up to wash up.
Because she hadn't slept well, the dark circles under her eyes were quite obvious.
As she walked out, she bumped into Tang Yu, who was wearing pajamas.
Tang Yu looked energetic, but his expression turned a bit strange when he saw Su Muyue.
He greeted her casually, "Morning."
【Why is this woman staring at me? Did she remember last night?】
【Sigh, a drunkard. Next time, I won't drink with her, or I won't be able to keep my pure and innocent self.】
Hearing Tang Yu's inner thoughts, Su Muyue's face started to heat up again, remembering what happened in the car last night.
She couldn't look Tang Yu in the eye, so she said good morning and lowered her head to walk past him.
【Yes! That's the reaction you should have. Be cold to me, got it?】
【A heroine should act like a heroine. I'll reluctantly forgive you for what happened yesterday.】
Tang Yu followed behind, feeling quite pleased. This woman finally seemed normal.
When they reached the dining table, breakfast was already prepared.
Today's breakfast was made by Tang Yu's mother herself, not the chef.
After all, it was the future daughter-in-law's first breakfast at their house, so she had to be specially taken care of.
"Good morning, Uncle and Auntie."
Su Muyue greeted Tang Yu's parents.
"Good morning, Muyue."
They both smiled and greeted her in unison.
They were quite satisfied with Su Muyue. She was beautiful and capable.
But her personality… was a bit cold, making their son a simp for three years.
Tang Yu also greeted them and then sat down, grabbing a plate of steamed dumplings to eat.
"What are you doing? Just eating by yourself? Serve some to Muyue."
Seeing Tang Yu eating by himself, his mother was a bit displeased.
"She can get it herself if she wants to eat. She's not a child."
Tang Yu pouted.
【Serving her food? That's impossible. Not in this lifetime.】
【If she wants to eat, she can eat. If not, forget it. I'm not Cao Cao; I'm not interested in taking care of someone else's harem.】
【Women! They only get in the way of me surviving until the end!】
Hearing Tang Yu's inner thoughts, Su Muyue suddenly felt a bit annoyed.
This bastard, it's just serving some food! It's not like he's giving away his life!
She said softly, "It's okay, Uncle and Auntie. I can do it myself. I'm really sorry for causing trouble yesterday by drinking too much."
"It's okay, it's okay. It's this brat's fault for taking you out drinking. Next time he forces you to drink, tell me, and I'll beat him up."
Tang Yu's father said kindly.
"It really wasn't him who made me drink. You can ask Qin Ming if you don't believe me."
Tang Yu looked exasperated. Was he becoming the scapegoat for everything?
"Yes, it was me who insisted on going with him. It's my fault. Uncle, don't scold him."
Su Muyue bit her lip, looking aggrieved.
Hearing this, Tang Yu's parents were even more satisfied with her.
Look at this considerate future daughter-in-law, lying to protect their son from being scolded.
【Damn it, you dead woman, you're acting again, aren't you?】
【And you're trying to gain favor with my parents? Damn it, is this necessary?】
【I get it. You're trying to set me up to avoid the pressure of breaking the engagement, making me the bad guy?】
【Cunning woman, damn it, I give up!】
After thinking it over, Tang Yu finally understood.
After finishing a steamed dumpling, he said, "Dad, Mom, you see, we don't really get along. I think maybe we should reconsider the marriage alliance…"
Before he could finish, his father had already pulled out his belt, glaring at him.
"What did you say?"
Tang Yu swallowed the rest of his words obediently.
Early in the morning, getting a beating wasn't very appropriate.
