Confessing to someone who thinks I'm a fat otaku, and then crying when monsters descend?

P.S.: I'll grant your wish to see pictures, but after you've seen them, please give me a five-star review, okay?

"W-how is it?"

A charming blush graced Uesawa Sakura's cheeks, and her small hands nervously tugged at the hem of her lace skirt.

As Chen Nian was admiring the display, a notification sound suddenly rang out outside: "Fingerprint authentication successful."

His door has fingerprint recognition, and Tang Rou had previously registered her fingerprint for convenience, so she could open the door and come in directly.

It wouldn't have been a problem if it were just Tang Rou, but Chen Nian didn't expect there to be two more unexpected guests.

As soon as Tang Rou entered the room, her gaze fell on Shang Zeying, who was dressed in a black silk maid outfit. She was stunned on the spot, her expression revealing embarrassment.

"Boss, did I bother you...?"

Gu Qingyue also came in, while Xiao He timidly hid behind her, looking somewhat shy.

"Chen Nian, have you missed this princess?" Gu Qingyue revealed a meaningful smile. "It seems you haven't, after all, you're living quite a carefree life, huh?"

"Qingyue, I didn't expect you to come as a guest. Welcome."

Chen Nian pretended to be calm. As long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was others who would be!

At the same time, he whispered to Tang Rou, "Why didn't you tell me you were bringing people?"

"Boss, the princess told me not to tell you, saying she wanted to give you a surprise... Don't blame me, I'm just a working person."

"hehe."

Shangze Ying didn't recognize Gu Qingyue and didn't know what to say at the moment, but she was amazed.

She knew that someone of Chen Nian's status would naturally have no shortage of female companions. But she hadn't expected the woman who arrived today to be so exceptionally beautiful, possessing an air of poise, elegance, and grace...

Gu Qingyue came to Shang Zeying's side, extended a slender finger, slid it down Shang Zeying's face, and then gently lifted her fair and delicate chin.

"Nice face, Young Master Chen has excellent taste."

Unexpectedly, Uesawa Sakura suddenly pushed Gu Qingyue's hand away and said coldly, "I am not a doll."

"She's got quite a temper!"

"Sit down, everyone sit down. Xiaohe, you sit down too. Tang Rou, don't just stand there, come here."

Tang Rou waved her hands repeatedly: "Boss, I'd better not sit. Standing is more comfortable. I don't want to get kicked out of the guild tomorrow because I stepped into your house with my left foot."

"Tsk... They even dare to joke with me." Chen Nian's lips twitched. Sure enough, no woman is easy to deal with.

Shangze Ying sat next to Chen Nian, Gu Qingyue and Xiao He sat on the other side, and Tang Rou went to the balcony to eat snacks...

Let me introduce you.

Chen Nian introduced Gu Qingyue and Shang Zeying, and that was how the two got to know each other.

He cleverly changed the subject, asking, "How's things going over there lately?"

"Not bad. We have basically moved to live on land. As for the establishment of the land kingdom, that is a long way off. But everyone's life is back on track, so I need to take some time to rest."

After Gu Qingyue finished speaking, she frowned slightly, her slender eyebrows furrowing: "There is one thing that is troubling this princess."

"What is it? Perhaps I can help," Chen Nian asked.

"All my subjects are urging me to find a suitable husband so that the royal bloodline can continue. Do you think you can help?" Gu Qingyue said with a half-smile.

"Uh... this needs to be considered carefully. Since you've come all this way, why don't you spend the Spring Festival here and experience the customs of a foreign land?"

"Great! Since you've invited us so kindly, we certainly can't refuse, right, Xiaohe?"

"Yes, yes!"

Gu Qingyue smiled slightly: "Then we'll have to bother you for a while, Chen Nian. You don't mind, do you?"

"sure."

Chen Nian thought to himself, "Luckily, I have quite a few empty rooms here."

"Sakura, there's an empty room on the left side of the second floor. Could you go and tidy it up?"

Unexpectedly, Uesawa Sakura turned her head away and ignored her.

This was the first time she had ignored Chen Nian's request.

Chen Nian looked embarrassed, then turned to Xiao He: "Why don't you go, Xiao He? The bedding and everything are in the closet. You can move in after a little cleaning."

"Okay!" Xiaohe was about to get up when Gu Qingyue stopped her.

"Princess?"

"Guests are guests, it's not really appropriate to make them do the work, is it? Xiaohe is not someone to be trifled with."

Chen Nian's gaze wandered around before finally settling on Tang Rou, who was eating potato chips on the balcony.

"Tang Rou, go and tidy up the rooms on the second floor."

"Waaah, in the end I'm the one who has to bear everything QAQ... Alright, alright, I, Tang Rou, was born to be your slave, boss."

"Stop kidding, it's a legendary item."

"Okay, boss, thank you!"

Gu Qingyue then stood up: "No need, Miss Tang. You've already gone through a lot of trouble bringing us here. Let me do it myself."

"Although I am of special status, I am not born to be pampered. I can do everything that ordinary women can do. I wonder who will be so lucky as to marry me."

As she spoke, Gu Qingyue began to walk upstairs.

Her move was brilliant; it both boosted Tang Rou's favorability and showcased her own abilities.

Sure enough, with a woman like Gu Qingyue arriving, the level of competition immediately rises!

This tactic is called retreating to advance.

Shangze Ying couldn't sit still any longer. When it came to getting things done, she was Chen Nian's right-hand woman. How could she let someone else take her place?

"Wow!"

After saying that, she quickly went upstairs and began tidying up the room.

That's how they took the bait!

Gu Qingyue calmly sat back on the sofa, a victorious smile on her lips.

As a princess, she has a deep understanding of palace intrigue!

Even people like Shangze Ying and Su Jinyu couldn't possibly defeat her. If there's anyone... well, only that terrifying woman Ye Hongling could probably put up a fight with her.

"Let's watch some TV," Chen Nian said, picking up the remote.

"What is television?" Gu Qingyue asked, puzzled. It was yet another unfamiliar term.

"It's that thing in front of you. It can display a lot of programs, which are broadcast by various local TV stations. It's a bit complicated to explain, but you can think of it as being able to see things that are very far away."

Gu Qingyue thought for a moment, "Then if I take a TV home, will I be able to see you more often?"

"This still won't work..."

Gu Qingyue was somewhat disappointed and sighed, "The ancients often said that longing is bitter, and others can find solace in objects, but I don't even have any."

"So, shall I give you a gift when you leave?"

"Okay! But I get to decide what gift to give, is that alright?" A hint of surprise appeared in Gu Qingyue's beautiful eyes.

"Go ahead and say it."

Chen Nian believed that there was nothing he couldn't obtain, not even the most expensive gemstones in the world.

"In our area, men who go to war are expected to leave offspring at home."

"you....."

Gu Qingyue sat down next to Chen Nian, abandoning the princess's reserved nobility, and like a little girl, hugged Chen Nian's arm to her soft chest.

"Chen Nian, let's have a baby! Then when I see the child and think of you, I won't be lonely~"

"Princess, please have some self-respect..."

Although Chen Nian said that, his hand didn't move away; it felt like it was stuck in a sponge and couldn't be moved.

"I've heard that there's an extremely terrible invention in your time that drastically reduces the success rate of childbirth. I hope you don't have that thing in your house."

Gu Qingyue turned to look at Xiao He: "What's that thing called again?"

"Princess... is called Little Umbrella."

Chen Nian was shocked: "You've only just arrived! Who taught you this kind of thing?!"

"What Miss Tang said, she taught me a lot."

"Tang Rou!"

At that moment, Tang Rou, who was happily munching on potato chips, suddenly shuddered.
