Chapter 152: Disappointment
“He” was a woman, a woman, a woman!!!
Nangong Jun Xi was shocked; but even more so, delighted.
Yes! Oh God! If “he” was really a woman, then he didn’t fall in love with a eunuch!
He is normal! He likes a woman!
“Haha!”
But before Nangong Jun Xi could continue, Le Yao Yao began to roar with laughter.
“Haha! Servant is a woman?! Haha, 7th Prince! You’re too funny! If servant is a woman, then 7th Prince, it means a woman had assisted you with your bath and seen you naked last time.”
“Eh….?!”
Although Nangong Jun Xi really wanted Le Yao Yao be a female, based on “his” tone, it didn’t seem like it.
So now, Nangong Jun Xi was quite unstable on the inside. He truly wanted him to be a woman!
In addition, he wasn’t the only one. The other two men on the horse carriage also felt the same..
Especially Leng Jun Yu. Although he was normally very cold and expressionless, his heart was rapidly beating right now.
These days, he felt like he was turning more and more abnormal. He actually fell for a eunuch.
To be honest, he was quite troubled by this.
Also, Leng Jun Yu could tell the little guy really hated being intimate with him. That was why Le Yao Yao played that joke on him at the Ruyi tavern. It was deliberate and he wanted to create distance from him.
So, Leng Jun Yu have also been treating Le Yao Yao very coldly. After all, it was what Le Yao Yao wanted.
But purposely creating distance was very difficult for him.
In order to limit his mind from thinking of Le Yao Yao, Leng Jun Yu would fill his schedule so full that he wouldn’t have time to think.
But the moment he takes a break, his mind would be filled with him.
His breathing, his scent….
It was so nice…
He had trouble controlling himself. So he kept reminding himself that Le Yao Yao was a eunuch.
A eunuch! He must not have sexual thoughts towards him!
But what if “he” wasn’t a eunuch? What if he was a woman?
If he was a woman, then….
Leng Jun Yu’s eyes began to light up. Sadly, Le Yao Yao couldn’t tell because she was too busy calming her pounding heart. She had to relax. That was the only way the guys wouldn’t be able to see through her.
Yes! Le Yao Yao! You can do it! You must hold on!
Nangong Jun Xi was stubborn,  “You’re really not a woman?”
“Haha! 7th Prince! Although servant looks very lovable and has looks that are capable of the downfall of a country, servant is truly not a woman. Think about it, if servant was a woman, why would servant come to serve Prince Rui? It is a well known fact that Prince Rui despise women. Wouldn’t I be courting death?!”
Nangong Jun Xi’s mouth twitched when he heard Le Yao Yao praising himself. But after thinking about it, it did make sense.
Everyone was aware how much his senior brother loathe women. There was a rule that no women were allowed inside his residence. If someone broke the rule, she would be beaten with a rod fifty times and then kicked out of the residence.
Fifty beatings could kill a person!
So, Nangong Jun Xi believed Le Yao Yao’s words. He also felt some disappointment from within. It was like an empty happiness. He shouldn’t have celebrated so quickly.
After hearing this, Nangong Jun Xi’s brows crinkled. He pitifully gazed at Le Yao Yao.
After all, he had been a noble since birth. He had always experienced unlimited wealth. Everything was given to him, and he never had to worry about survival.
Now that he heard Le Yao Yao’s story, he honestly felt like he was very lucky.
Poor guy. Yet, he had always bullied him.
Although, to be fair, most of the time, he tries to take advantages of the situation…
“So, what happened afterwards?”
Nangong Jun Xi felt bad, but he was also nosy. He couldn’t help but ask.
“Afterwards? Afterwards, servant got better. But sadly, servant has a pitiful life. Due to our family circumstances, my parents eventually couldn’t provide for my siblings anymore. So, they decided to sell me….”
When Le Yao Yao got to the end, she purposely made a huge sniffing sound and lowered her face as she began to move her shoulders up and down to create more dramatic impact.
The innocent Nangong Jun Xi actually fell for it.
So now, he softly murmured, “No wonder you’re so greedy. It’s because you’re too poor….”
“Eh?”
Hearing Nangong Jun Xi’s words, the corner of Le Yao Yao’s mouth twitched.
Greedy? I guess?!
After all, she had nothing in this dynasty. Without money, she wouldn’t be able to move a single step!
Anyhow, Le Yao Yao was quite sure Nangong Jun Xi believed her. She wasn’t sure about the other two though.
Le Yao Yao still didn’t dare to lift her head and make eye contact with the King of Hell.
“Brother Yao, if your family needs anything, feel free to let me know. Brother Bai will help you.”
“Brother Bai…”
