As soon as Ren Yanjing left, 111 spoke in a deep tone, 【Zhen, the mission to reduce favorability has come again.】
Sure enough, the next second, Tang Zhen received a new task.
【Mission 25: Mess up the room, then appear in front of the male lead before he returns, letting him face the messy guest room and the culprit behind it.】
Being a guest in someone else’s house and making their guest room messy… that doesn’t seem very nice, right?
111 didn’t care. 【What does it matter? Anyway, an auntie will clean it up.】
Tang Zhen still felt it wasn’t appropriate. “But it will increase the auntie’s workload.”
111 sighed. 【Zhen, if you knew the auntie’s monthly salary, you wouldn’t think that. Besides, several cleaning aunties are paid very high salaries—they’re actually afraid of having too little work and getting dismissed by the host.】
Even though Santiao said that, Tang Zhen still couldn’t bring herself to do it.
After thinking for a while, she finally chose a method—among all the ways to mess up the room—that she could accept the most.
On the wedding night, the groom should have been spending a wonderful evening with the bride. But at this moment, the groom was surrounded by a large group of the Ren family.
Ren Yanfu sat right next to the groom, resting his arm on the groom’s shoulder and questioning him, “What’s going on, Li Weng? You almost lost the ring today?”
The groom looked miserable. “Sorry, brother-in-law. That was indeed my oversight.”
Ren Yanli sat on the other side with his arms crossed, his expression cold. “And what about your two best men? One had a stomachache and stayed in the bathroom for half the day, and the other was arguing with his girlfriend about breaking up.”
The groom wiped his face, almost on the verge of tears. “I’m not really sure about their situation either.”
What could he do if the best men were causing trouble?
Ren Yanfu snorted. “Isn’t it because you’re bad at judging people? Don’t treat every filthy or useless person as your brother.”
Someone who abandons responsibilities on the wedding day—what kind of good person could that be?
Several other brothers-in-law warned him, “Don’t let Yan’en suffer any grievances, understand?”
The groom nodded quickly. “I understand, I understand, brothers-in-law.”
Ren Yanfu exhaled and gestured for Ren Yanjing to say a few harsh words as well.
Ren Yanjing was currently leaning against the doorway with his hands in his pockets. Tall with long legs, he looked like he could shoot a fashion magazine cover at any moment.
His thoughts were still stuck on the earlier sentence—
“I know, husband~.”
The corners of his lips subconsciously wanted to rise, but realizing the occasion was inappropriate, he forced them flat again.
Seeing that Ren Yanfu had already scolded the groom enough, Ren Yanjing said calmly,
“Cousin Yan’en wasn’t very happy today. Later, make sure you comfort her properly.”
The groom looked exhausted. “I understand, brother-in-law Yanjing.”
After more than ten brothers-in-law took turns lecturing him, his poor heart was about to give out.
How would he dare offend Ren Yan’en?
Ren Yanjing and several members of the Ren family spent about half an hour giving the groom a stern talking-to. Half an hour later, they finally let him go.
As soon as they stepped out of the room, Ren Yanfu took the initiative to invite him. “Want to grab a drink?”
Ren Yanjing replied, “No.”
Ren Yanfu didn’t insist. “Then the rest of us will go drink.”
“Mm.”
With his long legs and quick strides, Ren Yanjing returned to the guest room door in almost no time.
When he opened the door, what he saw was a beautiful “cat” who seemed to have done something wrong. The “cat” blinked her pretty eyes and looked at him nervously.
She looked pitiful.
The room was full of water marks.
There was water on many spots on the floor.
The culprit herself was still carrying the damp warmth of someone who had just taken a shower.
A unique sweet scent filled the air.
It was Tang Zhen’s scent.
It didn’t smell like shower gel—more like something she naturally carried.
She was wearing the bathrobe provided by the groom’s side. It was actually a very conservative style, and the belt was tied tightly, yet somehow she looked so beautiful that it was hard to look away.
Ren Yanjing didn’t dare look too much. As he walked toward the bathroom, he asked, “Why didn’t you dry your hair?”
Because only by doing this could she mess up the room.
After taking a shower, Tang Zhen had walked around the room in slippers for quite a while.
Even if these water marks weren’t cleaned up, they would probably dry by tomorrow morning.
Ren Yanjing came out with a towel in his hand. “Sit properly.”
Tang Zhen subconsciously sat down on the bed.
Ren Yanjing used a towel to dry her hair, then took out a hairdryer to finish the job.
Her black hair was smooth, soft, and of excellent quality—and didn’t shed.
By the time Ren Yanjing finished drying her hair, there were only a couple of stray strands on the floor, easy to clean up.
Her hair dried much faster than expected, leaving Ren Yanjing slightly disappointed.
Wasn’t it supposed to take a long time for long hair to dry?
Why was reality different from what everyone else said?
Tang Zhen watched the male lead so meticulous, not even glancing at her, and immediately knew the mission was a success.
111 chimed in her mind, 【The male lead must be very angry right now.】
Otherwise, why wouldn’t he even spare her a single extra glance?
Ren Yanjing casually asked, “Did someone knock just now?”
Tang Zhen replied, “No.”
It seemed Zhou Xusi hadn’t come to stir up trouble.
After tidying up, Ren Yanjing said, “It’s late. Baby, go to bed early.”
Tang Zhen crawled into the covers, only her pretty little head peeking out. “Good night.”
Ren Yanjing leaned over and kissed her forehead. “Good night.”
The guest room was large, essentially two small rooms, so Tang Zhen and Ren Yanjing still slept in separate beds.
They had always slept separately.
At home it was like this; even in the presidential suite it was like this.
Ren Yanjing hadn’t thought much of it before, but now… he felt a little unsatisfied.
How could he describe the feeling when he opened the door today?
The moment he saw Tang Zhen, he realized clearly—someone had been waiting for him.
She hadn’t run around.
She had obediently waited in the room.
Waiting for him to return.
Seeing that pretty “cat” the moment he opened the door was an unbelievably wonderful feeling.
At that moment, he felt a sense of comfort and joy he had never experienced before.
The next day, Tang Zhen, Ren Yanjing, and the other Ren family members had breakfast together.
Most of the wedding guests had stayed at the groom’s large estate last night.
So early in the morning, it was lively and bustling.
From the conversations around her, Tang Zhen learned that the best man who had just broken up yesterday already had a new girlfriend.
It wasn’t the previous ex-girlfriend, nor the bridesmaid he had worked with—it was another guest attending the wedding.
During breakfast, Tang Zhen happened to see that best man laughing and chatting with his new girlfriend.
The other best men were there too.
A group of them, joking and laughing, didn’t think anything was unusual.
The best man’s ex-girlfriend had long since disappeared.
Perhaps she had left the estate last night, or maybe she had departed before the wedding was completely over.
Ren Yanfu frowned slightly, his expression unsettled.
Ren Yanli sneered coldly, “What’s going on with Li Weng? What kind of friends does he have?”
Ren Yanjing hadn’t been paying attention to the best men at all; he was busy making milk for Tang Zhen.
Only when Ren Yanli spoke did he glance lightly at the group.
In a flat tone, Ren Yanjing said, “Remind Li Weng again.”
Ren Yanfu sighed, “I’ll go deal with it later.”
Tang Zhen lowered her gaze, immersed in her own thoughts, quietly eating.
111, however, was very active.
Earlier, 111 had been unsettled by the male lead’s reaction, but now, seeing the best man quickly start a new relationship, it was completely relieved.
The tasks it had handled for supporting female characters were truly effortless.
Once the supporting female character broke up with the male lead, and the male lead started a new romance with the female lead, it was just like this best man.
So the mission hadn’t failed—not even a little!
