106. Giving Gifts

 

Bao Ye sniffed it. It was emitted from the tea. It was very light. It was difficult to detect the smell of medicine if he had not smelled it frequently or with enough attention. Even people who know a little about pharmacology may not be able to smell that there is medicine in it. It is a slow-acting poison called Tuo Luo Xiang. If you drink a little every day, the medicine will corrode the whole body after a month. At that time, even gods can’t save them.

However, Tuo Luo Xiang only targets ordinary people and demigods with only a little divine power. If the divine power is stronger, Tuo Luo Xiang will have no effect.

This tea was given to Lao Liu by his eldest sister. Could it be that Yu Ling wanted to poison Lao Liu?

“Good tea.” He raised his head and smiled at Lao Liu.

Lao Liu smiled happily: “I also think this tea is very fragrant. If you like it, you can take some back and make it yourself, or you can come here to make tea every day.”

Bao Ye checked his face: “How long have you been drinking this tea? Why haven’t I seen you make tea before?”

“I accidentally drank it at my sister’s house last night. I thought it tasted good, so I asked my sister for some. She also asked me to let you taste it. If you like it, I will bring you some more.”

Bao Ye’s eyes moved slightly. Yu Ling’s real target might be him.

Nian Gao was not interested: “These tea leaves are so bitter, I really don’t know where the fragrance is.”

Wang Qiao doesn’t know how to taste tea: “For me, drinking tea is almost the same as drinking boiled water; I won’t waste your tea leaves.”

Lao Liu didn’t force them: “Master Bao, what about you? Do you like it?”

Bao Ye saw that Lao Liu didn’t know that there was medicine in the tea leaves: “I like it very much. How much of this tea leaves did you bring now? Is it enough for a month?”

“Yes.” Lao Liu took out the tea leaves and put them in front of Bao Ye: “Just enough for one person to soak for a month.

“Just enough to satisfy my craving.” Bao Ye smiled and took out a few bottles of potion from his waist bag and gave them to Lao Liu: “I’ll exchange with these potions.”

Lao Liu pushed the bottles away: “Master Bao, you are too polite. If you like it, just take it.”

“Why not? I’m embarrassed to take all your tea leaves. Besides, there’s no harm in giving you these. You may need it in the future.” Bao Ye stuffed it into his hand: “Don’t be embarrassed. I went to the Fallen Forest before to collect a lot of herbs and make a lot of potions. Now, I don’t have much of anything, but a lot of potions. You can keep them with peace of mind!”

Nian Gao looked at the potion in Lao Liu’s hand with envy.

Bao Ye took out six more bottles of potion and divided them between Nian Gao and Wang Qiao.

Wang Qiao cherished them very much: “Thank you, ugly slave.”

Nian Gao also said thank you awkwardly.

“The master is still waiting for me to inspect the construction site, so I won’t talk to you more.”

Bao Ye left with the tea leaves and got on the car with Dong Lingce to leave the building.

Dong Lingce saw that he was holding a bag in his hand and asked curiously, “What’s in the paper bag in your hand?”

“Oh, this is tea. It’s very fragrant, so I asked Lao Liu for it to give to you.” Baoye handed the tea to Dong Lingce. To this powerful lunatic, the poison in it was nothing.

“How fragrant can the tea leaves of slaves be? Is it as fragrant as the fine tea leaves in my office?” Dong Lingce said dissatisfied, but he was very happy in his heart that Baoye gave him something and immediately took it and put it away.

“Drinking too much good tea leaves and then drinking some inferior tea leaves will also have a different flavor.”

Dong Lingce glanced at the watch on his wrist and did not reply. He thought, Baoye gave him something; shouldn’t he also give a gift in return? But what should he give? What can mark this person as his?

He looked at the word “slave” on Baoye’s forehead and said, “Do you want to remove it?”

Baoye was surprised. “Why?”

Dong Lingce used his divine power, but the word “slave” on Baoye’s forehead was just like the tumor on his face, and it didn’t budge.

He frowned. “It also can’t be removed.”

He originally planned to remove the word “slave” and replace it with the word “ce” so that everyone would definitely know that this guy was his man.

Baoye rubbed his forehead and said, “If it can’t be removed, it can’t be removed. Forget it”

He didn’t plan to remove it either, and in the lower world, it didn’t matter whether it was removed or not.

Dong Lingce looked at him, conjured up a piece of gold, and then used his divine power to turn the gold into a two-centimeter collar. Under the collar were the three words “Dong Lingce,” each of which was particularly eye-catching. When worn around the neck, everyone could see the three words.

He was very satisfied with his masterpiece and smiled as he handed the collar to Baoye: “For you.”

Baoye didn’t know why Dong Lingce suddenly gave him something, but if he refused, this lunatic would definitely be unhappy.

He took it: “Thank you.”

Dong Lingce saw him about to put the collar in his waist bag and frowned. “You won’t wear it?”

“Wear it?” Baoye was stunned and checked the golden collar in his hand: “You don’t want me to wear it around my neck, do you?”

Oh my god, does this lunatic want him to wear this thing that looks like a dog collar? Is he treating him as a dog? So that everyone knows that he is Dong Lingce’s dog?

Dong Lingce nodded. “Yeah.”

Baoye was speechless, so in order not to make him angry, he said, “I’ll wear it later.”

Dong Lingce frowned. “Why wear it later? Can’t you wear it now? The watch that Zisang Yanruo gave you, you put it on your hand immediately; why is mine later?”

He remembered that Zisang Yanruo had put it on Baoye personally, so he took the collar back, opened it, and stretched it to Baoye’s neck.

Baoye quickly dodged back to block the collar: “Master Dongling, can I not wear it?”

“Don’t you like the gift I gave you?” Dong Lingce was unhappy and pressed forward, trying to put it around Baoye’s neck forcefully.

Baoye grabbed his wrist and prevented him from getting close to him: “I’m very happy that you can give me a gift, but can you be more sincere?”

“How am I not sincere enough? Mine is better than Zisang Yanruo’s; her’s just has a defensive formation, my golden collar contains not only defensive formation but also offensive formation, healing formation, soul-absorbing formation, and illusion formation. ”

Dong Lingce listed a long series of formations, which made Bao Ye smack his lips. This lunatic really wants to give him a gift.

Dong Lingce took advantage of his distraction and pushed his hand away.

Bao Ye came back to his senses and hurriedly blocked him and shouted, “Wait, listen to me first.”

Dong Lingce asked solemnly, “What do you want to say?”

Deacon Tao, who was in charge of driving, saw that the construction site was approaching, so he silently slowed down, then slowly turned a corner and took a long detour.

Bao Ye, who was pressed down by Dong Lingce, looked at their postures, pressed against his chest, and said, “Can you get up and talk first?”

“I’ll get up after you talk.” Dong Lingce said coldly, “You’d better give me a satisfactory answer. ”

Bao Ye took a deep breath and helplessly called out to the face that was less than half a foot away from him: “A Ce…”

The word “A Ce” made Dong Lingce stunned, just like a soft and cool liquid sliding across the anger in his heart, calming him.

“A Ce, I am very grateful for the gift you gave me and for letting me see your sincerity, but can your gift be more normal?”

Dong Lingce was unhappy again: “Why is my gift abnormal?”

Bao Ye said unhappily, “Who would give a dog collar to others as a gift? All your sincerity has been concealed by the appearance of your gift. If you hadn’t said that there are so many formations in it, I would have thought you wanted to humiliate me and treat me like a dog. ”

It can be that this lunatic has never given any gift to others.

“Dog? Dog collar.” Dong Lingce picked up the collar in his hand and took a look. It really looked like one. No wonder Bao Ye didn’t accept it. Even he can’t accept it. How could he let his future partner wear such a thing and be laughed at?

Suddenly, there was a sense of frustration in his heart: “Sorry. ”

Bao Ye was stunned, very surprised at the apology.

Dong Lingce reflected that he was too impatient just now: “I will think about what to give you.”

It was the first time he wanted to give someone a gift, and for a moment he really didn’t know what to do. He had to go back to Leng Zhuo to ask.

Bao Ye saw that he was about to take the collar back and quickly snatched it back: “Actually, this is also very good; I like it too, as long as you don’t want me to wear it around my neck. ”

There are so many formations in this collar. Maybe one day it will save his life. It would be a pity to take it back like this.

Dong Lingce was in a good mood when he saw him put the collar into his waist bag with a look of cherishment on his face. He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled widely. He found it particularly funny to see Bao Ye patting his waist bag happily after putting it away. He could not help but grab his hand against it, put it in his mouth,, and kiss it hard.

Bao Ye was stunned and quickly came to his senses, pointing at Dong Lingce: “You, you, you…”

This lunatic actually kissed him, although it was just the palm of his hand, but it also shocked him. It was not normal for a man to kiss another man.

His reaction made Dong Lingce feel so cute. Suddenly he wanted to tease him and asked him with a smile: “Huh? What’s wrong with me? ”

This “huh” was full of charm. Baoye felt like his ears were pregnant when he heard it. He looked at Deacon Tao, who was driving in front of him, and swallowed back the words he wanted to ask Dong Lingce as to why he kissed him. He just thought of it as a joke.

“It’s okay, get up quickly.” Baoye pushed him and said, “If the slaves see you like this, your image will be ruined.”

Dong Lingce said indifferently, “So what if my image is ruined? Can they turn against me just because I have no image? ”

Baoye was speechless: “We have arrived at the construction site. Even if you don’t care about your image, you have to get up, right? Don’t you still want to inspect the construction site?”

Dong Lingce glanced outside, sat up, and said to Deacon Tao, “Go into the site.”

Deacon Tao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quickly turned the car around, and drove towards the site at a faster speed.
