Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 454 of the main volume of Ruyi Little Man: Can I stay? In fact, Tang Ning's plan for the Ministry of War was very detailed. Just proceed step by step and there is nothing to deal with.

But people always need to rest. After three days of hard work, he needed a simple sleep to recharge his batteries.

He sat in the duty room at the Ministry of War until night, looked at the empty duty room, and began to miss the bed in his study.

At this time, he suddenly thought of Xiao Jue.

Good brothers are meant to sleep at critical moments. The tables and chairs in the Ministry of War are too hard, so it is better to go to Xiao Mansion to find Xiao Jue to make do with it at night.

Tang Ning left the Ministry of War and walked to the door of Xiao's residence, just in time to see Xiao Jue and Lu Ya walking out.

Xiao Jue looked at him and asked, "Hey, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Tangning looked at them and asked, "What are you..."

Xiao Jue said: "Go out for a walk, do you want to come with me?"

"No." Tangning waved her hand and said, "I was just passing by, you guys were playing..."

He almost forgot that Xiao Jue was no longer single now. The two of them were hanging out on the top of a willow tree. After dusk, they went out to walk on the road at night to increase their relationship. They might even kiss and hug each other. He Are you standing aside and watching?

A person must have his wits about him. Tangning was not as cold-blooded as Xiao Jue. She waved her hand and strode away.

It was not yet the curfew time, but it was still a bit cold at night in the twelfth lunar month. There were not many people on the street. Tangning stood on the street, not knowing where to call home.

He told them that they were working overtime at the Ministry of War at night and could not return home, let alone go to the county government office. Hongxiuge Pavilion was not safe. After much thinking, they could only think of one place.

…

Natural home.

"She is indeed loyal to the emperor." The old woman named Bai Jin put down a letter and said coldly: "After more than ten years, she still hasn't gotten rid of her bad habit of recognizing her master everywhere!"

Su Mei tilted her head, leaned on the bed rail, covered her mouth and yawned, and said lazily: "She will never use this to hurt you after so many years of friendship between you, senior fellow apprentices. There is nothing to worry about..."

"She dares!" The old woman said with a stern look on her face: "If her identity is exposed, she will also die. Besides, Chen Huang is as cunning as a fox. He is probably interested in her poisonous poison skills. Do you think that old fox Will you really trust her?"

The old woman stood up and said, "Have people keep an eye on her. If there is anything unusual, report it immediately."

Su Mei replied absently: "I know."

When the old woman turned around and walked out of the room, she paused, then raised her feet and left.

Su Mei took off her coat and asked, "Xiao Tao, is the bath water ready?"

Tangning walked in and said, "I didn't see Xiao Tao when I came in just now. I don't know where she went."

"You're here..." Su Mei was only wearing a white shirt, but she didn't care at all. She walked to the table, poured him a cup of tea, and asked: "It's so late, why do you have time to come here?"

Tangning took a sip of tea, pinched a piece of pastry from the table, took a bite, and then explained: "I was busy at the Ministry of War for a while, and I passed by here when I came back. I stopped by to take a look."

He glanced at a odds table on Su Mei's desk, with a few circled on it with a pen. After picking it up and looking at it, he asked, "You want to bet on this too?"

Su Mei glanced at him and said, "If you can make money, why not make it?"

Tang Ning also realized at this moment that with their intelligence gathering abilities, they must have an accurate judgment on the strength of the Sixteenth Guards. These bets were basically to give them money.

But nothing is absolute. It is precisely because of these people who believe in their own judgment that he and Tang Yaoyao can make money.

Tangning looked at what she had circled, shook her head and said, "In Group A, do you bet that Zuo Yuwei and Yinqi Wei will qualify?"

Su Mei looked at him and asked, "Do you have any better suggestions?"

Tangning suggested, "I'm still more optimistic about the Knight Riders. In this Sixteen Guards Competition, you won't lose money by betting on them."

Su Mei looked at it, seemed to realize something, and asked: "Aren't you afraid that I'll stake hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and leave you with no money to earn?"

If you want to make a lot of money by gambling, you can only bet on the big underdog. Xiaoqi Wei is a big underdog. Everyone else buys Yu Lin Wei, so he buys Xiao Qi Wei. The odds of Xiao Qi Wei are naturally high, which is equivalent to buying Yu Lin Wei to beat those people. All the money was made by him.

The odds are actually not determined based on the strength of the two parties, but based on the funds bet by the two parties. If a large amount of funds enter the market, the bookmaker will definitely adjust the odds. If Su Mei bets hundreds of thousands of taels on Xiaoqiwei The odds of the Knight Rider will definitely go down, and Tang Ning will also make a lot less money.

He looked at Su Mei and said, "We are a family. Of course we have to make money together, but..."

"But what?"

Tang Ning warned her, "But you can't tell Tang Yaoyao about this..."

The Sixteenth Guard Competition was planned by him and Tang Yaoyao together. Strictly speaking, his current behavior was leaking business secrets. If Tang Yaoyao knew that he leaked it to Su Mei, even Bi Dong would beg her to No forgiveness from her.

Su Mei looked at him and asked, "Are you afraid of her?"

Tangning explained: "The main reason is that I can't beat..."

Xiao Tao ran in from outside, followed by several maids, holding buckets of hot water in her arms, and said: "Miss, the hot water is ready..."

Tangning didn't eat anything when she came out at night, but took the pastries on her table to satisfy her hunger.

Su Mei took off her shoes and socks, stood barefoot on the floor, looked at him and said, "I want to take a shower."

Tang Ning pinched a piece of cake, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Go ahead."

Su Mei looked at the bathtub in the room, then looked at him again and asked: "Do you want to come with me?"

Tang Ning was stunned and almost choked on the cake. He swallowed it with great difficulty. Looking at her, he said in shock: "This, I'm afraid it's not good..."

Su Mei said unhappily: "You know it's not good, but why don't you go out!"

Tang Ning finally reacted, stood up hurriedly, and strode out the door. Halfway through, he turned back, took away the remaining cakes on the table, and closed the door.

He sat in the light of the corridor, Xiao Tao sat next to him, ready to go in and help Su Mei add water at any time.

Tang Ning turned his head to look at her and asked: "Xiao Tao, how old are you this year?"

Xiao Tao thought for a while and said: "Sixteen."

Ever since he came back last time and gave her a lot of rouge and spices, she has been much more polite to Tang Ning.

Bored, Tang Ning casually asked, "How did you and your young lady meet?"

Xiao Tao looked at the night sky and said casually, "When I was a child, my parents didn't want me anymore, and it was the young lady who picked me up."

Tang Ning looked at her, no wonder Su Mei spoiled her so much, it turned out that they both had the same fate.

He sighed, thinking that she was mentally weak and had difficulty sleeping because of being too tired. After getting to know her gradually, he found that it was probably because of the childhood incident that left a huge psychological shadow on her, which has not been eliminated until now.

It is always very troublesome for women to take a bath, and Tang Ning waited for her outside for more than half an hour.

Su Mei was wiping her hair in the room. When she saw Tang Ning coming in, she was surprised and asked, "It's so late, it's curfew outside, why haven't you left yet?"

Tang Ning looked embarrassed and asked, "Can I stay tonight?"

Su Mei's towel almost fell to the ground. She asked with a hint of panic in her voice, "What...what?"

"Don't get me wrong." Tang Ning explained immediately, "I mean, can you help me find a room here?"

She had slept with him so many times, he just wanted to stay with her for one night, it shouldn't be too much, right?

If there is no empty room, she and Xiao Tao can squeeze in.

Su Mei looked at him, the panic on her face disappeared, and she didn't ask any more questions. She walked to the bed and stuffed a purple bellyband into the quilt, saying, "Don't bother, you can sleep here tonight."

Tang Ning was quite touched that she actually gave him her room. He walked to the bed, took off his shoes and socks and climbed onto the bed, saying, "Thank you."

He sat on the bed and watched Su Mei walk to the door and close it, then took a new quilt from the cabinet, got on the bed, shrank back, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Sleeping." Su Mei covered her mouth and yawned, saying, "Why are you so nervous? It's not the first time anyway..."

Tangning thought she wanted to squeeze in with Xiaotao, but she actually wanted to squeeze in with him. Although it was not the first time as she said, it was the first time he took the initiative...

He glanced at Su Mei, crawled into the quilt, grabbed something with his right hand, and pulled it out casually, saying in surprise, "What is it?"

"Who told you to touch me!" Su Mei snatched the bellyband from his hand and said, "Sleep on the quilt outside!"
