Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 184

Chapter 184: Chapter 178: Come to My Room Tonight

Shen Li agreed gladly when he heard he didn’t have to do dirty or tiring work, just checking accounts, which was simple for him.

"The things I said in the Imperial Palace were just to deal with the Emperor and his partner. You don’t need to take the competition to heart, losing won’t affect us anyway." Shen Li saw Shen Tang working diligently, thinking those words put too much pressure on her.

Shen Tang shook her head, saying, "It’s not just about the competition..."

She was more worried about the pollution zone expanding in the future.

She must prepare early while there is still time.

"Besides, I don’t want to lose to Shen Qingli in the competition, I have to fight for it. What if I win?" Shen Tang smiled as she spoke.

The system’s main task was still in front of her; she had to get the heir qualification.

This competition was also an opportunity for her.

Shen Tang didn’t want to be someone else’s stepping stone; she wanted Shen Qingli to become her stepping stone upwards!

The woman’s glossy black long hair was like a galaxy, her face delicate and beautiful, her charming cat-like eyes flashed with a sly light, her red lips curled in a smile, sunlight falling on Shen Tang, making her irresistibly captivating and dazzling.

Shen Li was stunned for a moment, raised his hand to lightly caress her eyebrows, laughed in his throat, "...Xiao Tang looks so confident and beautiful, truly like the Empire’s future heir, quite fascinating."

He wasn’t lying this time.

A broadcast voice came from the mind.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, Shen Li affinity +5!]

Shen Tang raised an eyebrow, it seemed this sly fox didn’t like ambition-less little white flowers but liked females who might become Kings~

Shen Li also went out of the city with a group of Beastmen.

The early preparation stage was the busiest.

Afraid of accidents, Shen Tang also went over to take a look.

When she and Shen Li arrived outside the city, they found Xiao Jin had already led the Beastmen to build temporary thatched shelters for rest at night.

They had to build the quarry and lumber mill as quickly as possible to start the project soon, likely having no time to return these days.

Blazing sun, wilderness, destined to be a tough period.

Shen Tang initially felt a bit guilty arranging for Xiao Jin, the former Empire Vice Admiral, to do such dirty and tiring work, but seeing him not displeased at all and actively working made her feel relieved. His efficiency was incredibly fast, leading several teams to dig pits, chop trees, and move stones.

Shen Tang secretly marveled, realizing assigning Xiao Jin here was the wisest decision.

This guy is energetic, always giving her trouble at home. Sending him out to work was right, just to let him channel that energy properly, saving him from venting on her.

After circling around, Shen Tang was sweating heavily, sitting in the shade by the side of the shelter to rest.

Shen Li brought a bottle of water over.

Seeing her face flushed from the sun, he found it amusing.

Which noble Princess would specifically come over to supervise the work?

Not to mention, this hardworking trait is far stronger than that of the one in the Imperial City.

Shen Li handed the water to Shen Tang, took out a wet towel to help her wipe off the sweat on her forehead, smiled gently and said, "The weather is so hot, you should go back and rest first. I’ll watch over things here, Xiao Tang, you can just relax."

"Okay." Shen Tang took the water and drank a sip, sweet and refreshing.

Shen Tang instinctively wrapped her arms around his lean waist, greedily absorbing his cold aura, as if she grabbed onto a big ice block.

Xue Yinzhou’s body stiffened slightly, seemingly didn’t expect the female to be so proactive, he looked down at Shen Tang, gently touched her flushed face, and softly asked, "Are you sick?"

"I’m fine, just stayed outside too long, let me hold you for a while!" Shen Tang hugged him comfortably, unwilling to let go.

Xue Yinzhou relaxed his body, allowing her to hold him for cooling down, raising his eyes to look at the shelter not far away, softly asked, "Do you need me to do anything?"

The system, always lacking awareness, interrupted, [Hehe, what else can he do? Of course, do something fun~ Host, hurry up, he’s already asked proactively, seize the opportunity quickly!]

Shen Tang thought of the system task, with her heart heating up, quickly let go, "Why did you come over?"

Xue Yinzhou saw Shen Tang letting him go, a trace of regret flashed in his heart, his cool face showing no emotion, his narrow phoenix eyes looking down at her, seriously asked, "I heard from the City Lord that you’re planning to build a fortress, Xiao Jin and Shen Li were sent by you to work. I’m also your Beast Husband, if you need anything, you can ask me."

Shen Tang froze for a moment, didn’t expect Xue Yinzhou, who had always been mysterious, today would proactively come to ask her for work.

Thinking about it, although she verbally agreed to treating him as her Beast Husband, the two had no substantial progress, he certainly felt uneasy.

Seeing her working without thinking of him, perhaps feeling more uneasy, afraid that the words that day were just empty promises.

Xue Yinzhou, seeing Shen Tang still not speaking, pressed his lips, asked softly, "What work do you need me to do?"

"You, you don’t have to do those tasks..."

Shen Tang’s face turned more crimson.

Her fingers gently hooked onto his waistband, standing on tiptoes, she whispered in his ear, "Come to my room tonight."

"Do something else."
