Chapter 69:
After they finished, a full hour had passed.
Thanks to his strengthened body, Tang Yu's stamina in this area was quite impressive.
He helped the weak-kneed Hu Tao to the front desk of Wangsheng Hall.
At this moment, Hu Tao looked a little exhausted, but her face was flushed with satisfaction.
After helping Hu Tao sit down, Tang Yu took out his phone and started recording her directly.
He felt that the current Hu Tao had less of her usual mischievous charm and more of a seductive allure.
"Who are you?" Tang Yu pointed the camera at Hu Tao and asked with a smile.
Hu Tao narrowed her eyes, put her hands on her hips, puffed out her chest, and said playfully: "I am the 77th Director of Wangsheng Hall! And who might you be?"
Before filming, Tang Yu hadn't discussed anything with Hu Tao.
All she knew was that they were shooting a short video to promote the game Genshin Impact.
Her improvised performance left Tang Yu extremely satisfied.
Some people's playfulness didn't need to be forced.
"I… I'm the Traveler," Tang Yu replied, his voice full of confusion.
Hu Tao stood up, stared at Tang Yu with a devilish smile, and said: "Really now, what are you doing at Wangsheng Hall for no reason?"
"It's not as safe here as you might think."
The moment she finished speaking, Tang Yu wasn't sure if he was seeing things, but a small, white, adorable ghost suddenly appeared in front of Hu Tao.
The ghost was tiny and cute. Tang Yu wasn't scared at all.
He was just very curious.
"Looks like Hu Tao has been secretly raising a little ghost," Tang Yu thought to himself.
"Come with me. I'll send you off," Hu Tao said as she took Tang Yu's hand and walked toward the entrance of Wangsheng Hall.
At that moment, a colorful butterfly appeared out of thin air, fluttering ahead to lead the way.
Hu Tao stretched out her hand, letting the butterfly land on her palm.
"Look, butterflies are surnamed Hu, and so is Hu Tao."
She turned back to stare at Tang Yu and asked: "Right? We're quite fated, aren't we?"
"Although this world has its own explanations for these coincidences, some things simply can't be explained, can they?"
After saying this, the two had already walked out of Wangsheng Hall.
Tang Yu stood in front of Hu Tao.
Hu Tao gently reminded him: "Alright, don't wander into Wangsheng Hall so casually next time. It's very dangerous here."
"Of course, if you really like adventure, you're always welcome."
As she spoke, Hu Tao's expression turned excited again. She continued: "Because adventurers are premium customers of Wangsheng Hall!"
"You can even get discount coupons!"
"By the way, do you have any family members?"
"Recently Wangsheng Hall is running a promotion — buy one tombstone, get one free!"
At this point, Tang Yu stopped recording.
The entire video was shot in one continuous take, without a single pause.
It was incredibly smooth!
Tang Yu gave Hu Tao's acting skills high praise. "Hu Tao, you're really amazing."
He sincerely complimented her.
Hu Tao narrowed her eyes and giggled, then threw herself into Tang Yu's arms.
"You're even more amazing. I think I'm a little swollen down there."
When she said this, Hu Tao's face suddenly turned red.
She felt very shy!
It really hurt!
But it also felt really good!
Tang Yu lovingly stroked Hu Tao's head and said softly: "Next time I'll be gentler. I won't be so rough."
Hearing this, Hu Tao pinched Tang Yu's waist. "It's fine… I'm quite durable."
After saying that, Hu Tao immediately buried her head in her chest.
But since there wasn't much there, it was basically pointless.
Tang Yu still saw the strange excitement on her face.
Seeing this scene, how could Tang Yu hold back?
He scooped Hu Tao up in a princess carry and walked back into the rear hall of Wangsheng Hall.
Another hour passed before the two finally came out.
This time, Hu Tao couldn't even stand. Tang Yu had to carry her.
They closed Wangsheng Hall and drove home together.
"What happened to Sister Hu Tao?"
When they got home, Xiangling saw Tang Yu carrying Hu Tao inside. Noticing Hu Tao's strange expression, she walked over worriedly and asked.
Hu Tao's face turned red as she explained: "I… I fell down today. It's nothing."
Xiangling nodded, not suspecting anything.
After carrying Hu Tao back to her room and tucking her in, Tang Yu closed the door and came out.
Seeing Tang Yu, Xiangling quickly walked over and asked: "Is Sister Hu Tao really okay?"
Tang Yu smiled and thought to himself that Xiangling really wasn't the lewd type.
Most people seeing Hu Tao's expression would immediately know something indescribable had happened.
But she didn't seem to notice at all.
When Hu Tao said she fell, Xiangling genuinely believed it.
"She's fine," Tang Yu said. "She'll be better after some sleep."
Xiangling nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Tang Yu took her hand and the two sat down on the living room sofa.
Looking at Xiangling, Tang Yu said: "Just now, Hu Tao and I shot a short video to promote Genshin Impact. I hope you can shoot one too."
"Because you're also in the game."
Hearing this, Xiangling's eyes widened. She pointed at herself in surprise and asked: "You mean you put me into the game?"
Tang Yu nodded. "You can understand it that way!"
Xiangling nodded half-understandingly and asked: "How should we shoot it?"
Without hesitation, Tang Yu said: "Just cook a dish. Any dish is fine."
"That's it?" Xiangling raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling it was too simple.
"Yes." Tang Yu smiled and explained: "You're so cute. Just watching you cook will attract a lot of attention."
"Later I'll ask Silver Wolf to add some special effects in post-production. The result will definitely be great."
Xiangling nodded and didn't say anything else.
She went back to her room, put on some light makeup, and then came to the kitchen.
Xiangling opened the refrigerator and saw there weren't many ingredients inside.
Only tofu and tomatoes.
She grinned, her eyes sparkling as an idea formed in her mind.
Tang Yu stood behind Xiangling, not giving any instructions.
He felt that a natural performance would be the best.
At that moment, Xiangling soaked the tofu in water, then with swift knife work, she cut the tofu into small cubes.
Next, she boiled some water, poured the boiling water over the tomatoes to easily peel off their skins.
Seeing this, Tang Yu was full of question marks.
What kind of delicious dish could you make with tomatoes and tofu?
With some doubt, he continued watching patiently.
Meanwhile, Xiangling grabbed a handful of flour from the bottom of the cabinet and mixed it with the mashed tofu.
Then, she heated oil in the pan, added the tomatoes, and thoroughly mashed them with a spatula.
The tomatoes quickly turned into red juice.
Xiangling poured it onto a plate and set it aside to cool.
During this time, her small hands continuously kneaded the flour and tofu together.
Soon, the tofu and flour mixture took shape.
Tang Yu, who had been filming from behind Xiangling the whole time, saw the shape she was kneading and his face filled with shock.
His mouth opened wide, and he quietly muttered three words:
"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!"
