How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 497: Can You Stop Avoiding Me?

Pei Shu’er looked helpless, while Xiao Shen continued to try and serve her food. Tang Zan’s bowl reached over, and the food fell into his bowl.

Tang Zan smiled, "Really, thank you Uncle. Your hand is injured, how could you still serve me food?"

After saying this, Tang Zan instinctively dropped the food from his bowl onto the table and shrugged his shoulders.

"See, it fell. I wasted your good intentions."

Pei Shu’er was too embarrassed to even look.

These two, do they have to be so childish?

Tang Zan pulled Pei Shu’er to the side to distract herself, and Pei Shu’er played along while eating.

But at this time, Xiao Shen was still serving her food, and even Mrs. Xiao Lin joined in.

Pei Shu’er was overwhelmed, finally putting down her bowl, allowing them to continue serving as they wished.

She picked other dishes to eat by herself.

The meal was full of tension, like a battlefield.

Pei Shu’er and Liu Xu exchanged glances and left together.

Liu Xu hooked her arm through Pei Shu’er’s.

"Let’s go to Pei’s to have a good meal, just the two of us."

After the two returned from Pei’s, they found Tang Zan and Xiao Shen fighting in the courtyard.

Since no one was intervening, they seemed evenly matched in their standoff.

Pei Shu’er felt speechless, and even Liu Xu sighed as she looked at Mrs. Xiao Lin.

Actually, Mrs. Xiao Lin liked Pei Shu’er a lot, but no matter how much she liked her, Pei Shu’er was still someone else’s daughter-in-law.

Liu Xu and she left, and Pei Shu’er glanced at the two before leaving too.

In the end, Pei Shu’er went into the laboratory.

Continuing her research work in the lab.

If there was any machine that needed dismantling, she would stealthily enter the space to dismantle it.

After allowing someone entry, she would immediately exit the space to go to the room, continuing to study the previous theoretical knowledge.

Whenever her mind was unclear, she drank Spiritual Spring Water.

During this time, Tang Zan came to see Pei Shu’er a few times. At first, he was quite normal and just wanted to spend time with her.

But later on, Tang Zan looked at Pei Shu’er with some resentment.

"You know, my mom just urged us again. She said she wants a grandson, and we’re not getting any younger."

Pei Shu’er coughed lightly. She felt she was still young.

"I think we could wait a few more years before having a child."

Tang Zan’s gaze became very profound. Actually, he also wanted a child.

But not for the sake of letting Liu Xu have a grandchild, nor to continue his bloodline.

It was simply because he wanted to have a deeper bond with Pei Shu’er.

With the bond of a child, Pei Shu’er wouldn’t easily leave him.

Now, regarding Pei Shu’er, he was always anxious and insecure.

Pei Shu’er was just too mysterious.

So, in the subsequent visits, Tang Zan came intending to "make a person" with Pei Shu’er.

The first few times, Pei Shu’er was inexperienced and even got caught by Tang Zan a few times.

Later on, Pei Shu’er became more astute, and as soon as she heard Tang Zan’s footsteps, she swiftly entered the space.

But by not doing so, Tang Zan wouldn’t have been so panicked. Her actions only intensified Tang Zan’s anxiety.

To say nothing of the other things, just that space of Pei Shu’er’s could indeed vanish at will.

On one occasion, when Tang Zan entered Pei Shu’er’s room, he saw Pei Shu’er’s eyes with a hint of panic, and then she disappeared without a trace.

He felt as though his heart was clenched tightly at that moment.

This feeling of fear made it hard for him to adapt.

Tang Zan didn’t leave. He sat coldly at Pei Shu’er’s desk, flipping through some books, just waiting for her.

He waited from evening through to night, and finally until dawn.

By Pei Shu’er’s feet lay White Tiger, with a loom in front of her, as she simultaneously disassembled and studied the machine’s structure.

When she raised her head, she saw Tang Zan’s figure at the entrance of the space.

Her head suddenly ached a little.

Tang Zan obviously looked like he was here to talk.

If she could stay in the space forever, it would be fine, but if she had to come out, the longer she waited, the worse it would be.

After some thought, she clenched her teeth and left the space.

Then she saw Tang Zan raising his eyes, which gleamed with a dangerous light.

But he said nothing.

Pei Shu’er also didn’t speak; she picked up a book and sat next to Tang Zan, then quietly started reading.

No matter how tense the atmosphere Tang Zan created, it did not impact Pei Shu’er’s focus on her book.

With the accustomed presence of Tang Zan, she gradually became engrossed in reading again.

As Tang Zan watched the sky getting lighter, he finally bit his lip and took the book from Pei Shu’er’s hands.

He said, "Pei Shu’er, I’m about to return to Gulan Military Camp soon. Don’t you want to see me at all?"

Upon hearing this, Pei Shu’er felt a pang of sadness, and a strong sense of reluctance surged in her heart.

She finally looked up at Tang Zan.

"Why in such a hurry?"

Tang Zan huffed, "Look what month it is now. Soon it will be time to launch the final battle. This time, we must make the Dazi sign a peace treaty, and also drive them out."

"It takes quite a while to get from here to Gulan Military Camp."

Pei Shu’er nodded, and with the current situation with the plague of refugees, many are forming groups autonomously and causing havoc within Dayan.

Tang Zan, along with a few subordinates, wouldn’t have an easy journey just by traversing these roads.

Pei Shu’er gently tugged on Tang Zan’s sleeve and softly shook it.

"Don’t worry, we can meet again soon."

Pei Shu’er’s eyes were like blossoming peonies, soft and glistening with tears, a mixture of innocence and desire.

Tang Zan’s Adam’s apple bobbed once: "Who knows, maybe I’ll die on the way to the Gulan Military Camp?"

Just thinking about it, Pei Shu’er felt more sorrow.

Tang Zan pressed on, "Maybe I’ll get shot to death with random arrows or cut down with random blades while fighting the Dazi?"

Pei Shu’er felt even more heartache; she opened her mouth, but before she could speak, she found herself choked with emotion.

Pei Shu’er spoke softly, "You won’t, Tang Zan, you definitely won’t die."

Tang Zan scoffed coldly, "Who is it that never dies? There are many such generals in history. Who knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident?"

Pei Shu’er felt more and more terrible, eventually becoming speechless.

Tang Zan sighed, "Our time is so precious. If you keep avoiding me like this, I’ll be scared too, always in constant doubt. Pei Shu’er, I really, really like you."

Pei Shu’er saw the affection in Tang Zan’s eyes, as if it was going to melt her.

She was suddenly filled with guilt; after all, it wasn’t easy for Tang Zan to come see her, and she was always avoiding him. That wasn’t fair.

"I’m sorry, and also, I like you too."

Tang Zan’s lips curled into a barely perceptible smile, his magnetic voice full of tenderness.

"So, could you please stop hiding from me in the future?"
