Hiring Coolies
Pinliang wanted to talk to Yushu about the fireworks tonight without Mengyao, but it wasn't a good idea to do it in front of Mengyao. If Mengyao didn't give him face and rejected him outright, Pinliang would be in a very bad spot. He wouldn't even have a chance to turn things around then.
As a result, Pinliang planned to talk to Yushu first. As long as Yushu was willing to help, he'd be able to trick Mengyao into coming out. He was sure that Mengyao would definitely come out to see his fireworks show, and maybe she'd even fall in love with him … …
"Yao Yao, go get some rest. Shu's right, you need some rest!" Pinliang said, following Yushu's lead.
Mengyao was more than happy that Pinliang wouldn't bother her anymore. Since he'd asked her to leave, Mengyao naturally wouldn't reject him.
Yushu blinked at Pinliang after Mengyao left. "Liangy, what do you need from me? Just say it!"
"Ugh … … How did you know?" Pinliang blinked. This Yushu really knew how to predict things.
"When have you ever come to me without asking for my help?" Yushu grinned as she handed the shovel to Pinliang. "Dig a hole for me first, then tell me what's going on."
"Okay, okay!" Pinliang quickly took the shovel and started digging, looking at Yushu gratefully. She'd always been a troublemaker when he asked for her help before, but she was being nice today!
Mengyao would've fainted if she'd known about this. Yushu hadn't even promised Pinliang anything yet, and all she did was treat him nicely. Pinliang was probably the only idiot in this world who'd fall for something like that.
"I'm thirsty. Get your lackey to get me some cold drinks." Yushu said as she sat down on a pile of dirt, hugging her legs.
"Okay!" Pinliang called out to Xiaofu, who wasn't far away. "Xiaofu, go get some drinks, make it cold! Come back quick! "
Xiaofu left to get the drinks, and Pinliang finally spoke up. "Shu, I really do have something I need to get rid of you for … …"
"Oh, say it. What's the matter? I'll see if it's okay." Yushu nodded carelessly, a little unhappy that Pinliang had stopped digging. "I'll do it myself if you don't want to. You don't need to say anything, let me finish first."
"I'll dig, how can I let you dig … …" Pinliang jumped and started digging again. "I'll tell you as I dig. Here's the thing, there's a tree called the Eskimo tree, and it's said to be a symbol of love. Legend has it that if you confess your love to a girl under this tree, she'll fall in love … …"
"You're not going to tell me that you brought an Eskimo tree here, are you?" Chen Yushu asked. How could there be such an idiot in this world? How could he believe such an unreliable legend?
"Yeah, I sent one over by air. I've already asked Xiaofu to write some confession notes and hang them on the tree," Pinliang said.
"Is that so?" Yushu replied indifferently as she played with her phone.
"Of course, that's not the main show. I've prepared a show called 'Fireworks That Never Sleeps'. I'm going to release fireworks on the tree and turn them into Yao Yao's name in the sky to confess my love to her!" Pinliang didn't know if Yushu was listening to him. He gritted his teeth in anger, but he didn't dare get angry.
"Oh, there's fireworks? That's fun, I'll definitely go see it. Don't worry, I'll bring Yao Yao with me. "Yushu, naturally, wanted to see the magical fireworks.
"That's great!" Pinliang was overjoyed, and his digging speed increased. It wasn't long before he had a big hole. "Shu, do you think this hole will work?"
"Sure, you can dig another one next to it." Yushu nodded, satisfied.
"Again?" Pinliang's face turned bitter. One was already tiring enough, and he still had to dig another one?
"This one's mine. You can dig another one for Yao Yao, but it's fine if you don't want to. I'll call Yao Yao over and tell her that you don't want to help her." Yushu stood up and went to call Mengyao.
"Don't … Don't!" Pinliang almost cried. He had worked so hard for so long just to dig for Mengyao. If Yushu yelled at him like that, all his effort would go to waste. Who knew, Yushu might do something bad to him and ruin the night … With that thought, Pinliang gritted his teeth. "I'll keep digging. How can I let you and Yao Yao do it? Leave these things to us men! "
"Then you can continue. Yao Yao said that she likes stronger guys," Yushu said as she sat down.
"I'm strong. Look at me, I'm not tired at all. I'm only using thirty percent of my strength. I can still speed up!" Pinliang said quickly.
It wasn't long before Xiaofu came running over with a few bottles of drinks. "Liang Bro, I bought them. Is this enough?"
"It's enough!" Pinliang waved his hand, signaling Xiaofu to leave. He handed two bottles to Yushu. "Give one to Yao Yao as well?"
"Yeah, I'll go then. Take your time, call me when you're done!" Yushu said as she took the drinks and ran over to Mengyao.
Pinliang was sweating profusely as he dug with the shovel. He was trying to show off how strong he was. He was tired, but he was gritting his teeth with a smile on his face …
"Yao Yao, here's a bottle." Yushu handed one to Mengyao.
"I'm not drinking. You drink it yourself." Mengyao shook her head. She was usually careful not to leave any openings for Pinliang, especially when it came to things like this.
"Then I'll drink it myself!" Yushu didn't care- she was already used to blackmailing Pinliang.
"You tricked him into digging?" Mengyao frowned as she watched Pinliang work hard.
"No, I just said that Yao Yao likes strong guys, and he wanted to show off." Yushu said with a smile.
"Since when do I like strong guys?" Mengyao blinked. She didn't expect Yushu to come up with an excuse like this to trick Pinliang.
"Isn't Shield Bro very strong? You don't like him?" Yushu asked.
