Chapter 77 Sharing a Pillow Amidst Turmoil, Zhongli in Seclusion
To relieve his dizziness, Xunfeng pulled back the covers and prepared to get out of bed.
But when he bent down to pull back the covers, he was instantly stunned.
"Huh?! Why has my blanket turned pink?"
Shocked, Xun Feng quickly realized what was happening.
"This is not my room!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Feng jumped off the bed and looked around the room in astonishment.
Just then, something moved under the blanket on the bed and pulled the blanket all the way over.
This sudden situation left Xunfeng at a loss.
The next second, Hu Tao poked her head out.
"Um... Xunfeng, what are you arguing about?"
After saying that, Hu Tao groggily opened her eyes.
"!!!"
Upon seeing Hu Tao's appearance, Xun Feng's brain completely shut down.
"Hu Tao, is this your room?"
"What nonsense are you talking about... This is of course my room!"
As Hu Tao spoke, she turned around and picked up the hat that was on the bedside table.
It was this action of hers that made Xun Feng instinctively cover his eyes.
Hu Tao emerged completely naked, then habitually reached for her hat.
When she opened her eyes, she saw her clothes lying all over the floor next to the bed.
After realizing what had happened, Hu Tao hurriedly and shyly shrank back under the covers, leaving behind an awkward silence in the room.
"Xunfeng, I order you to get out of here immediately!"
"receive."
Xunfeng blushed and ran towards the door without looking back.
At this very moment, Barbatos is sitting in the main hall of the Hall of Rebirth.
"Hey, you're finally out?"
Seeing Xun Feng's embarrassed expression, Barbatos couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Was the wine good last night?"
"It didn't taste good at all. What kind of wine did you give me last night? And how did I end up sleeping in Walnut's room?"
"Haha, don't be in such a hurry, Heliseg. I just mixed a little bit of ecstasy powder into the drink."
"Drugs? You drugged me?!"
"Hey, don't get worked up. This thing has no side effects. It just makes the gods temporarily fall into a coma."
"So how did I end up sleeping in Walnut's room?"
"Last night, when Master Walnut was in high spirits, she took the initiative to raise her glass and drink with everyone present. Morax originally suggested that she drink juice, but she insisted on drinking dandelion wine, which has a higher alcohol content, because she was embarrassed."
"So she was drunk too? And then what?"
"Then, after the banquet, you and Hu Tao were personally taken back to the Hall of Rebirth by Zhongli."
"As for why you two sleep in the same room, hehe, I have no idea~"
Barbatos grinned as he spoke.
Seeing Barbatos's meaningful expression, Xun Feng looked helplessly towards Zhong Li's room.
"Where's the Morax? I'll go ask him."
"Haha, he's avoiding suspicion, you won't find him."
"You two seem to have conspired together..."
"Hehe, maybe~"
Before Xunfeng could ask any more questions, Hu Tao, having straightened her clothes, walked out of the room slowly and awkwardly.
"Xunfeng... there's your coat on the ground."
As Hu Tao spoke, she turned her head and handed her coat to Xun Feng.
"Hu Tao, things aren't as you think!"
Seeing his clothes in Hu Tao's hands, Xun Feng was even more confused.
Is it...
"Last night, I got drunk and have been unconscious ever since. I don't remember anything!"
"Xunfeng, you will take responsibility for me, right?"
After saying that, Hu Tao lowered her head shyly and remained silent.
Barbatos, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, patted Xunfeng on the shoulder and then ran out of the Hall of Rebirth with great joy.
Before he left, he only left one sentence.
"Good luck."
Watching Barbatos leave, Xun Feng's mind went blank, and he didn't know what to say.
But seeing Hu Tao's shy expression, Xun Feng still chose to take responsibility.
"Hu Tao, I..."
"Master Walnut, you have a package!"
Just then, an untimely voice broke the awkward atmosphere between the two.
"Oh? Oh! Just leave it at the door."
Hu Tao composed herself and quickly called out to the deliveryman, Qi Liangliang.
"Haha, Master Hu Tao, is that young man over there your new employee? He's quite handsome!"
"Uh... you have so many packages to deliver, if you don't deliver them soon, it will be too late!"
"Hey? Master Hu Tao, you look a little different today."
Qi Liangliang paused, puzzled.
"No way! This master has always been like this!"
After noticing her unusual behavior, Hu Tao quickly returned to normal.
"Then why is your face so red? And you signed for today's package without even glancing at it?"
"As the saying goes, the first encounter is unfamiliar, the second is familiar. This is my way of showing trust in you, so please do not misinterpret my actions."
After saying that, Hu Tao proudly put her hands on her hips.
"Hey, your new employee is secretly watching you. Why is he blushing too?"
“We have the heating on in the hall, so it’s warm.”
