Chapter 480: Zhongli suddenly regrets
Gu Sanqiu shook his hands to clean the crumbs from the teacup, then quickly pinched Hu Tao's ears.
Gu Sanqiu gradually raised his hand: "Little girl, you seem to be very active."
"Oh, it hurts, it hurts..."
Hu Tao narrowed her eyes , and a hint of tears instantly began to swirl in her eyes. Gu Sanqiu knew that she was pretending, but he had to let go of his hand.
"Tsk, you damned Sanqiu, you even want to kill me to silence me after I discovered your true orientation. I'm going to have the Qianyan Army arrest you and put you in jail!"
Gu Sanqiu had a blank expression on his face. “Then I will report all the information about your illegal promotion of Wangshengtang business in Liyue over the years. After I make a contribution by reporting and exposing you, I will be able to get out right away. How about you live in there instead?”
"Don't worry, I will send you vegetable buns every day to make sure you don't starve to death."
"Good you!"
Walnut bared his teeth and said, "You actually want your childhood sweetheart to go to jail. It turns out that men will become bad when they grow up!"
"Let me correct you. Right now, my enemies out there are saying that I'm a psychopath. That means I didn't become bad after I grew up. I've always been bad."
Gu Sanqiu patted Hu Tao and motioned for the little girl to sit back and continue eating.
"Anyway, I won't help you with this matter. If there are any conflicts in your marriage, it will easily cause problems for your relationship between superiors and subordinates."
Well, although before long, your superior-subordinate relationship may be completely reversed.
"You've changed a lot."
Hu Tao's expression was aggrieved for a second: "You used to spoil me a lot, letting me do whatever I wanted and agreeing to everything I did, but you've changed!"
"That's called being young and ignorant. Go back to your seat. If you waste food, I won't bring you out next time."
Gu Sanqiu calmly drank his tea and said, "You have used this trick too many times. Please take back the smile on your lips when you are pretending. This will help your acting skills improve."
"I don't care, you've changed!"
Hu Tao began to rub Gu Sanqiu's hair: "It must be because you often go out now, and you saw a girl who is prettier than me and changed your mind, you wanton incense worshipper, a playboy!"
"...eat well. After dinner, I'll go back and find a list of suitable ladies of noble families. I'll help you think about it."
"Great! Sanqiu is the best!"
Hu Tao cheered, casually tidied Gu Sanqiu's hair, ran back, and started eating like a proper girl.
Old man... No, Brother Zhongli, I hope you can have some sense of crisis, or the ability to run away early on a whim.
Gu Sanqiu rubbed his brows. Anyway, the person we are helping to arrange a blind date with is Zhongli, who is just a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall. Even if he wants to cause trouble, it is impossible for him to find me.
With the old man's broad mind, he shouldn't do something like settling scores after the event, right?
perhaps?
A few hours later , at the gate of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao looked at Gu Sanqiu with shining eyes. The latter slowly took out a thin book from his arms, which was instantly snatched away by Hu Tao.
"Hehe, I finally got the chance."
Hu Tao laughed maliciously: "We must make arrangements for Zhongli in this regard today!"
Gu Sanqiu covered his face and then sighed secretly in his heart.
What Morax, what old man, I only know Zhongli, an ordinary guest of the Wangsheng Hall. Let’s not talk about Hu Tao’s purpose for now, I just want to introduce a partner to Brother Zhongli out of kindness.
Those on the list are all well-known families in Liyue Harbor. They are super high-quality resources that many people would love to get, so this can be considered as a good intention on our part.
As for what the old man will say about introducing himself in the future?
That’s a matter for the future. Anyway, I definitely don’t know about it now, so it’s not my fault!
Well, the reason is quite sufficient. Even if the old things are brought up again in the future, we can use this new version of the Bible to deal with it.
It should be okay to hypnotize myself like this, right?
…
In the evening, after inspecting the people's livelihood in Liyue Harbor and enjoying a vacation by walking the birds and listening to operas, Zhongli returned to the Hall of Rebirth.
"Master, everyone, I brought you some ointment to calm your nerves and replenish your energy."
Zhongli was slightly surprised and said, "Oh? So Brother Gu is here too?"
What is Xiao Sanqiu doing here? Hasn’t he been free and wandering around recently?
"Hey, Zhongli, you're back."
Walnut smiled maliciously: "There are indeed several teams of employees who need to go out to do some work today. You can give the ointment to them first. We will call you over after we are done here."
"Well, you have worked hard, Master."
"How can it be hard? I haven't felt tired at all for most of the day, hehehe~"
Zhongli glanced at his "one son and one daughter" and thought that they were just some young people playing around. It would be fine as long as they didn't jump around like Xiao Sanqiu.
"How about this one? He is well-educated and has funded an animal farm to raise all kinds of rare and exotic animals. He has also studied in the Qianyan Army. He is good at both literature and martial arts, and he is also good-looking!"
"No, this kind of person who looks well-educated but is actually very strong-willed is not a good match. If a carefree person meets a strong woman, won't the two of them clash and cause unrest in the family?"
"Eh? That's right. How about this? This family is a big agricultural family in Liyue. It should be easy for them to support Zhongli."
"Oh, sorry, I forgot to delete it. Last time, Xingqiu and Chongyun went to help someone solve a problem. This young lady seemed to have taken a fancy to Chongyun and has been trying various channels to get information about him."
Walnut's eyes lit up: "So what happened in the end?"
Gu Sanqiu thought for a moment and said, "I asked the people from the Ten Gold Society to cut off her channels and left a note saying fair competition. I guess the girl has already imagined a lot of tough rivals in her mind."
…
The discussion over there was still going on heatedly, but Zhongli here felt something was wrong the more he listened.
What are these two discussing?
The uneasy Zhongli quickened his pace slightly, distributed the calming and replenishing ointment to colleagues who had to deal with special matters at night, and then wandered over to the two of them.
"Are you done with your work? If you are, come and see me."
Hu Tao pulled Zhongli to sit down, then placed a thick stack of white paper in front of him with a snap.
"This is the blind date that Sanqiu and I selected for you based on your interests and personality. Choose one."
Walnut said with a smile: "If you see someone suitable, don't be shy. There are two golden signs of Sanqiu's family and this hall master's family here. You should be able to meet tomorrow. Try each other in every way~"
…
In a certain inexplicably high and inexplicably far area, the Thousand Rocks Qi and the mysterious power of dark yellow color were violently turbulent, as if a powerful enemy was approaching.
Zhongli forced himself to suppress his inner shock, and after listening to Hu Tao's "economic education", he understood the problem.
So what are you here for, kid?
Zhongli subconsciously wanted to look at Gu Sanqiu with a scrutinizing gaze, but then he realized that his current identity was a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall.
If we summon Xiao Sanqiu now with a strong purpose, it would be bad if he notices something wrong.
…
Too sloppy.
Zhongli glanced at Gu Sanqiu and felt more and more that this brat deserved a beating. He had the demeanor of his ancestors.
Also, I suddenly feel that letting him go is a good choice. No matter who he harms, just don't let him come back to harm me!
"Master, marriage is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly. I appreciate your kindness, but I am fascinated by archaeological excavations and the study of folk customs of various countries. At present, I have no intention of finding a partner."
"No, you have to choose one today!"
Seeing Hu Tao, who had grasped Zhongli's vital point, smile, he did not really want to interfere in the marriage of his capable general, but Gu Sanqiu reminded her of something before Zhongli came back.
Set a reasonably high price so that there will be more room for maneuver, especially when dealing with a knowledgeable person like Zhongli!
The more you bargain and the more you control the price, the more grateful you will be to the Master of the Wangsheng Hall today when you look at the account book tomorrow!
Be brave Taotao and overcome difficulties!
