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

Tang Rou was having a pleasant meal with her family when she suddenly received a phone call, so she had to get up and go to the balcony to answer it.

"What's wrong, boss? I'm having dinner with my family."

"Why don't you come to my house for New Year's dinner?" Chen Nian said.

"No, no, your house is too scary. Who are all those people there...? It's too tense. I'd just be cannon fodder if I went. I'm not going!"

Tang Rou added, "Don't even think about bribing me; I'm not going no matter what!"

"It's okay, I'm at your doorstep."

"ah?!"

Tang Rou looked toward the door and saw that her mother had already gone to open it.

"Oh my, isn't this Xiaorou's boss? What brings you here? Come in and sit down, Xiaorou!" Auntie was incredibly welcoming; who doesn't like outstanding young people?

"No, Auntie, I'm here on behalf of the company to deliver some New Year's gifts to Xiaorou and to invite her to our company dinner," Chen Nian said.

"You're too kind, you're really..."

Auntie accepted the gifts with a big smile, her face beaming with joy.

Turning her head, she saw her daughter wearing a miserable expression and immediately slapped her, saying irritably, "You silly girl, your boss is being so kind as to bring you this, why are you making that face? Aren't you going to say thank you!"

"Thank you, boss..." Tang Rou forced a smile.

"Alright, since they went out of their way to pick you up for dinner, that's already giving you a lot of face. Go on!"

"Mom, you..."

"Stop being so coy, hurry up and leave, you're not welcome here." The aunt pushed Tang Rou out directly.

Chen Nian shrugged, indicating that he hadn't forced Chen Nian to do this.

In the end, Tang Rou still left with Chen Nian.

As soon as the door closed, my aunt's family rushed over.

"Oh my, that young man is so handsome! He's even bringing gifts for Xiaorou during the New Year. He's so kind of him!"

"Let's see what they sent?"

"Wow! This porcelain looks so high quality, and the packaging is exquisite. It must be expensive."

"Oh my god, this skincare product... isn't it the most expensive luxury brand on the market? I see GG on TV all the time!"

"And Moutai... ginseng... what's that young man's background? He's giving so many expensive gifts!"

The whole family was overjoyed.

Tang Rou followed Chen Nian all the way home.

"We're here. What's wrong? Why aren't you happy to be having New Year's Eve dinner at my house?" Chen Nian asked with a smile.

"Of course I'm happy to have New Year's Eve dinner with you, but I'm afraid my body can't handle the heat if I have to help you take on the heat."

"Don't be afraid, you have a great figure, very full."

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

During the Lunar New Year, not only are we being used as tools, but we're also being teased. It's outrageous!

.......

When Ye Hongling returned to Chen Nian's house and met Su Jinyu, it was like a clash of titans, with tensions escalating immediately.

Su: "What brings you here?!"

Ye: "With so many people here, why can't I come?"

Su: "Where's Chen Nian? Where is he?"

Ye: "I don't know. How come you can't even keep an eye on your own brother Buyu, and you have to ask me?"

Su: "You cunning fox, how dare you say that? Shameless!"

Ye: "It's better than you not even being able to steal any fish."

Su: "Don't stop me! We didn't settle things last time, let's fight again!"

Click, the door opened.

Chen Nian returned, the bickering stopped, and everyone's eyes fell on him at the same time.

After all, he is the main character tonight.

"So many people? It's so lively! Sorry, I just went to take care of some business with Tang Rou, so I was delayed."

"Yes, hehe..." Tang Rou forced a smile.

Su Jinyu approached Chen Nian with a smile, "Brother Buyu, when did your house become so lively? How come I didn't know before?"

Chen Nian gave Tang Rou a meaningful look.

Tang Rou said, "I really can't do that. Who in the guild would dare to offend Xiao Qi?"

However, Chen Nian had more than one traitor, including Zi Nan, who, as one of the Ten Beasts of Senluo, could communicate with him internally.

"Xiaoqi, I think it's normal to have more people during the Chinese New Year, and they all came on their own, only you were invited."

"I didn't receive an invitation..." Su Jinyu asked in confusion.

"Oh? Did I forget to tell you? I'm so sorry, Chen Nian specifically asked me to tell you, I just forgot."

"Is Zun Du fake Du?"

"Of course it's true! I'm your best friend, not his. Why would I lie to you!"

Chen Nian hurriedly nodded in agreement: "Yes, it's all your fault for having such a goldfish memory. You'll have to punish yourself with a drink later."

The naive and innocent Su Jinyu thought about it and realized it was indeed true...

This best friend of mine grew up with me; she wouldn't betray me, no matter who else she betrays. That should be the case.

"Alright then! You're smart to know what's good for you."

"Wow, this meal is so delicious! It's fantastic!"

Tang Rou changed the subject at the opportune moment, found a seat, picked up a chicken leg from the table, and started eating.

Speaking of this, Su Jinyu immediately gritted her teeth and looked at Ye Hongling: "You didn't do anything, so why should you sit down and eat as soon as you arrive? This is the result of our hard work!"

Tang Rou silently put down the chicken leg and stood up dejectedly.

"Hehe... Miss Su, you can cook, can you? Don't make us laugh. We're all just freeloaders, the pot calling the kettle black."

"Looking down on people? I'll do it right now!"

Immediately from behind, four hands grabbed Su Jinyu, preventing her from wreaking havoc in the kitchen.

"I cooked this dish." Shangze Ying walked to Chen Nian's side and whispered to ask for credit. She was satisfied as long as she could get Chen Nian's approval.

"Me too! Me too!" Xiaohe raised her chopsticks.

"Sit down, everyone! It's rare to have so many people celebrating the New Year together, let's eat first."

As the head of the family, Chen Nian's invitation was met with respect, and everyone sat down.

Of course, Su Jinyu was sitting next to him.

"Let me pick up a piece of meat for you!" Su Jinyu smiled and reached for the plate with her chopsticks, preparing to serve Chen Nian some food.

But they were stopped by another pair of chopsticks. Looking up, they saw Ye Hongling.

The chopsticks of the two men were entangled in the air, like two weapons clashing, making everyone's hearts jump with fear!

Su Jinyu's eyes were cold and clear. She used chopsticks as swords, unleashing a variety of sword techniques.

Ye Hongling smiled, and her chopsticks ignited with the flames of the Vermilion Bird.

If chopsticks could speak: You gentlemen, what have I done to deserve this...?

In the end, the pork belly could not withstand the divine powers of the two powerful beings, and its body shattered, turning into a pile of black ash.

"Don't waste food." Tang Rou felt a pang of heartache.

Su Jinyu slammed her hand on the table, and with a buzzing sound, the plate of pork belly flew into the air, having been skewered by her with a single chopstick!

This, too, is a sword technique.

"snort!"

She triumphantly placed the meat skewers into the aged bowl, revealing a victorious and smug smile.

"Childish." Ye Hongling chuckled, picked up a glass of red wine, and said, "Chen Nian, let me toast you first."

"No, drink with me first, drink with me!" Su Jinyu hurriedly tried to grab the wine, but after thinking about it, she picked up the wine glass filled with peanut milk instead.

Just then, Gu Qingyue suddenly got up and went to the center of the living room.

She wore a magnificent red dress adorned with golden phoenixes and dragons, which perfectly accentuated her elegant and ancient beauty.

"Young Master Chen, having witnessed such vulgar competitions, would you like to enjoy a more refined performance?"

After saying that, she started dancing in the hall.

She's no match for martial arts, but she has a huge advantage in terms of talent.

Gu Qingyue's dance steps were light and graceful, like a butterfly fluttering in the air. Her figure was soft and beautiful, like a fairy descending to earth.

After the dance ended, all the women fell silent...

"Princess is amazing!" Xiao He clapped her hands enthusiastically.

Gu Qingyue then picked up her wine glass and toasted Chen Nian across the distance, displaying her elegant demeanor.

This aged wine is definitely worth drinking. And to be able to watch this kind of program during the New Year, especially with a peerless beauty like the princess dancing herself, is a real treat for the eyes!

"Wait, do you guys feel... a little cold?"

"Yeah...why did it suddenly get so cold?"
