Instance game: I signed a pact with the gods, and the gods accused me of cheating

"what?"

"But I clearly remember you were wearing underwear when you went to bed last night..."

"No, can you please stop being a dead man? Can you find something for me?"

"???"

Xu Mingyang was stunned for a moment, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly unconsciously for a moment;

"What? You think I can come up and help you find it?"

Wanyan Xiaowen immediately coughed and replied;

"No, I didn't tell you... No, I didn't mean for you to come up and help me find it. I meant for me to find it myself. I can find it myself. Hurry up~"

At the end, there was a hint of crying in her voice.

Xu Mingyang was stunned again. What was Xiaowen talking about? Why was her statement so incoherent?

"Ah? Let me come back soon?"

"No, I'm not asking you to come back quickly. What I mean is, uh, I didn't finish. I mean you should quickly... change your non-mainstream curtains. Yes, the curtains in your house are too non-mainstream."

Xu Mingyang felt suspicious and frowned.

"Xiao Wen, why are you making so much noise over there? It sounds like you're fighting with the bed?"

"No, it's just that my bra got unhooked at some point after I fell asleep and fell onto the bed. I can't find it now, and I'm looking for it now."

"Why don't you change your clothes?"

Just then, a vague male voice came through the receiver.

Hearing the voice coming from the receiver, Xu Mingyang was completely stunned, his mouth opened and his pupils widened;

"Xiao Wen, why is there a man's voice at home?"

"Ah? Because I just woke up and was watching TV..."

"Okay, Mingyang, I won't talk to you anymore. I'm hanging up first!"

"Beep beep..."

Immediately afterwards, there was a busy tone on Xu Mingyang's phone.

Old Xu's dark face was filled with surprise. He looked down at the three or five plastic bags in his hands. They were full of Wanyan Xiaowen's favorite food, and even a surprise that he had prepared for her early in the morning as soon as he got his salary yesterday.

Xu Mingyang suddenly felt that things had become boring.

Because he had an absurd and bold guess in his mind.

Although I didn't dare let this guess take root in my mind, because it was too ridiculous!

But I couldn't help feeling empty inside. She mentioned last night that she wanted to eat cold noodles with sesame sauce, so I got up early and ran to more than ten streets to buy it. Xiaowen was not moved at all when she heard it, especially the tone of Wanyan Xiaowen's voice on the phone just now. I don't know why, the woman seemed to have tried her best to control the tone, but I could still hear some subtle and touching ripples. The tone and tone of her voice were hard to read. If I had to use one word to describe it, it would be lingering. The key is...

What is the aftertaste of...?

"Hey, that dark-skinned gym student over there, how do you know I didn't eat breakfast?"

"Hmm... let me see, sesame sauce cold noodles, sweet tofu pudding? Damn, are you from the south? Eating chicken feather sweet tofu pudding? Let me see what else is there? Oh, the latest iPhone 15 Pro Max, damn, you are quite wealthy, you can just buy a phone worth more than yuan?"

Just when Xu Mingyang was hesitating and suddenly didn't want to go upstairs.

Who knew that a figure standing at the bottom of his building walked out from the darkness of the corridor. The young man had a cigarette in his mouth and a playful look on his face. He even touched the things in Xu Mingyang's hand. However, Old Xu was not angry. He looked at the other party in surprise, with a strange look in his eyes.

"Old Qin, why are you here..."

"Come and see my great big boy."

Qin Shang exhaled a puff of second-hand smoke, grinned and revealed a row of white teeth, with a sunny smile;

"You bastard, let me come and see what you've been through in the past two weeks. What changed you and made you suddenly change your mind and decide to give up your silly and second-rate style and join the Sunset Red Club?"

"What is Sunset Red Club?"

Qin Shang took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and pointed to the words "The Years Are Quiet and Good" on it.

"Is this you?"

"Ah...yes!"

"Then why the hell are you learning how to create online nicknames from middle-aged and elderly people? I have three or four people on my list who are living a peaceful life. The others are at least 40 or 50 years old and are square dancers. But you are different. You are not even 30 years old, but you have already decided to join the organization."

"Why don't you create a new account called 'Flowers in the Sky'? I can't even tell who's who, and you came up with this stupid name, you bastard."

Xu Mingyang frowned when he heard his best friend complain about his nickname right from the start.

He didn't have much in mind when he changed his name. He simply felt that since he was in love, he had to behave like a mature man. It seemed that the older guys in their forties and fifties at work all had online names in this format.

Xu Mingyang thought that if he could use the same item earlier, he could also attract Xiaowen and indirectly convey the feeling that he was already a very mature man.

He frowned in dissatisfaction and complained;

"You have to come to see me just because of this matter!"

"Isn't this type of name the standard for mature men when they get older? You should change it as soon as possible. After all, you are married. This kind of name can reflect a person's experience. When others add your contact information, they will feel that you are a calm person!"

Qin Shang sneered and spat out the cigarette butt.

Stupid Xu Mingyang, but he also reveals his experience and is as calm as your mother.

Is there any connection between being a die-hard bootlicker and being calm? He can't even speak properly in front of a pretty girl of the opposite sex, and now he's trying to show off in front of me?

"Brilliant!"

"You can do it, Xu Mingyang. Since you have this awareness, a twenty-year-old boy wants to learn how to name his child like a forty- or fifty-year-old. If you really can't do it, just pack up and die. After all, everyone will die sooner or later. A twenty-year-old person is experiencing the burial of an eighty-year-old. I absolutely praise you for your precocity. If you can't do it, improve your awareness. Everyone is mortal. You have seen through life and death early on and are buried sixty years in advance. I praise you for being awesome!"

Xu Mingyang choked.

Among their friends, the only person Xu Mingyang knew who could compete with Qin Shang in bickering was Jiang Qiqi.

"You didn't buy it for me?"

The next moment, Qin Shang pointed at the packaging bag in Xu Mingyang's hand.

At first, Xu Mingyang subconsciously wanted to hide the thing behind him.

So Qin Shang specifically brought it up and made a joke about it with a smile on his face.

"Um... I didn't even know you were coming, so of course I didn't buy it for you."

"Oh!"

Hearing this, Qin Shang looked at Xu Mingyang meaningfully and clicked his tongue;

"Then go up and call your girlfriend down, and we'll find a place to have breakfast together."

"I'm giving her all this breakfast..."

Qin Shang shrugged indifferently;

"It's okay. She should be able to eat two meals. After all, she just finished strenuous exercise and consumed a lot of energy."

Xu Mingyang was stunned for a moment and looked at Qin Shang in surprise.

"What?"

"What's wrong? These are all her favorite foods that I bought for her. You probably didn't eat them either, right?"

"No, what kind of strenuous exercise are you talking about..."

Xu Mingyang opened his mouth and felt as if something was pressing on his throat, making it dry.

Qin Shang's eyes were as sharp as a pair of eagle's, as if they could penetrate people's hearts. Xu Mingyang suddenly felt an indescribable shame in his heart. He didn't dare to look him in the eye, as if he had done something wrong that Qin Shang couldn't know.

The next moment, the young man put on an innocent expression;

"Who knows? I was planning to go upstairs to your house to look for you just now, but when I was done I heard someone laughing at your house. I guess someone is exercising at home, right? Oh, yes, you two are both sheriffs, and Wanyan Xiaowen used to be an undercover agent, so she must be quite skilled. In order to maintain her skills and athleticism, this woman might be exercising at home, Old Xu, don't think too much about it."

Xu Mingyang's lips moved, and the absurd idea that had just been suppressed and failed to sprout broke out from the bottom of his heart again. He wanted to say a dirty word to vent, but he didn't know what to say, so he simply pursed his lips and shut up.

I followed Qin Shang upstairs. Just when I reached the third floor, I heard the sound of a door opening on the fifth floor.

Immediately afterwards, there was a hurried sound of footsteps coming from the floor above them. Xu Mingyang's heart instantly rose to his throat. For some reason, he suddenly felt panic and nervousness.
