So, currently, Le Yao Yaoâs head was hanging super low. She only had the courage to stare at her toes.
After all, she honestly didnât know what to say. She had already lost too much face!
It was all the damn 7th Princeâs fault! She already told him to stand up, yet he refused. Great. Now, the King of Hell had discovered them! She wonât be able to wash herself clean even if she fell into the yellow river!
As for Nangong Jun Xi, he also felt very awkward. Although Leng Jun Yu was the senior brother he grew up with, he witnessed something he didnât know how to explain.
Well, since he canât explain, heâll just not reply.
Nangong Jun Xi placed a hand behind his head and awkwardly laughed.
âHaha..erâŠsenior brother, why are you here?â
Actually, Le Yao Yao was very curious about this too. After all, they were in Qing Xiao Ge. Although Qing Xiao Ge was part of the King of Hellâs residence, the 7th Prince was living here right now. In addition, the King of Hell was standing at such a secretive spot. Why was he standing there? If he hadnât spoken, none of them wouldâve discovered he was there!
Also, how long has he been here for? Could the King of Hell have a peeking fetish?
Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao was a bit speechless.
Leng Jun Yu was still standing outside the window. Hearing Nangong Jun Xiâs words, his face remained unmoved but the tone of his voice turned a few degrees colder.
âIâm looking for Xiao Tu Zi.â
Le Yao Yao immediately lifted her head and made eye contact with the frozen faced King of Hell.
Looking for her? For what?
âEh?â
âThis Prince is hungry.â
âŠ..
Oh, so the King of Hell was standing there because he was hungry.
But if he was hungry, he could have sent other servants to prepare a midnight snack for him. Does he want her to personally prepare something again?
âHaha, if senior brother hadnât mentioned it, I wouldnât have realized Iâm hungry too! Perfect. I am done with my bath. Xiao Tu Zi, go and prepare some midnight snack! Remember, make more!â Nangong Jun Xi beamed.
âEhâŠ..â  Seeing how Nangong Jun Xi was bossing her around shamelessly as if nothing had happened between them, Le Yao Yao couldnât help but sigh. How could someone have such thick skin?! There was definitely no one that could compete with him!
After the King of Hell said his two sentences, he returned back to his Ya Feng Ge. Nangong Jun Xi also followed along. It appeared he had failed to realize that the King of Hell was not being his usual self.
On the other hand, poor Le Yao Yao had to go to the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack for her two slightly abnormal masters.
However, it was late at night. When Le Yao Yao had arrived in the kitchen, there was no one else around. But since the fire accident, she was too afraid to cook by herself. So, Le Yao Yao went to find Xiao Mu Zi to help her.
After all, Xiao Mu Zi was going through puberty right now. He normally doesnât get enough nutrients from his food. So now that the two masters want a midnight snack, she will cook extra so that they could both have some as well.
Xiao Mu Zi got up right away when he found out Le Yao Yao needed his assistance. When they arrived at the kitchen, Xiao Mu Zi started the fire with ease, while Le Yao Yao prepared the necessary ingredients to cook.
This time, she decided to make boiled dumplings with soup. It was late, after all. It wouldnât be good if they ate something very greasy at this time. Or else, they might have trouble digesting.
Le Yao Yao finished making the dumplings very quickly, and both of them quickly ate their shares before Le Yao Yao carried the rest to Ya Feng Ge.
While she was outside, she saw both Leng Jun Yu and Nangong Jun Xi quietly sipping on tea. Nangong Jun Xi assumed Leng Jun Yu was awfully silent because he was stressed over the scooped hearts and dried corpses mystery. So, he initiated a conversation, âSenior brother, donât worry. Youâve already sent people to investigate. Iâm sure weâll capture the evil cult and uproot them soon!â
Although Leng Jun Yu was stressed about the dead maidens, currently he was more bothered by what he had witnessed in the bathroom.
The moment he recalled how Nangong Jun Xi was lying on top of Le Yao Yao, his heart became extremely irritated.
It was like someone stole something that belonged to him.
Although Nangong Jun Xi was his junior brother, he still found it unacceptable.
Hence, after a long silence, Leng Jun Yu opened his mouth and coldly questioned Nangong Jun Xi, âWhat happened earlier?â
âHuh? Earlier? What?â
Nangong Jun Xi was a bit confused. But a moment later, he realized Leng Jun Yu was asking about what had happened in the bathroom. His face immediately flushed.
He felt very awkward as he recalled how soft the little eunuch felt on his body. âHisâ face was so attractive, it nearly took his soul away. Furthermore, âheâ smelled like flowers. And his body had reacted so strangelyâŠ.
Thinking of how he almost lost control, Nangong Jun Xiâs face looked almost distorted.
âActually, I just wanted to pick on the little eunuch. No big deal.â
âOh? Is that so?â
Leng Jun Yu responded very icily to Nangong Jun Xi. But Nangong Jun Xi was used to Leng Jun Yu being cold, so he didnât think it was out of the ordinary.
âYes. Senior brother, I think the little eunuch is so fun and interesting. Why donât you give him to me?â
That way, he could tease âhimâ and anger âhimâ daily.
In Nangong Jun Xiâs opinion, Le Yao Yao was like a disobedient wild horse. He really wanted to tame âhimâ and turn this mischievous, stubborn servant into an obedient little lamb.
As Nangong Jun Xi thought about it, his peach blossom eyes curved into a cunning smile.
However, seeing Nangong Jun Xiâs smile caused Leng Jun Yuâs face to turn even colder.
Unfortunately, Nangong Jun Xi was too engrossed in his thoughts of training Le Yao Yao that he failed to notice Leng Jun Yuâs anger once more. He only sensed that Leng Jun Yu was taking awhile to respond. So, he pushed again, âSenior brother, say something! Just reward the little eunuch to me!â
Although his senior brother had rejected him this morning, Nangong Jun Xi didnât give up. He had rushed to his senior brotherâs residence the moment he had found out his mother wanted him to marry Slug. Originally, he thought he would only be taking refuge. But unexpectedly, he met the little eunuch!
If he had the little eunuch to entertain him daily, his days would be so fun. As a result, he put on his thick skin as he begged his senior brother again. However, Nangong Jun Xi was afraid his senior brother would refuse, so he began to blink continuously as he gazed at Leng Jun Yu with a hopeful expression.
He was trying to get his way by acting innocent and cute.
Combined with his handsome looks, if Nangong Jun Xi had used this method with any other woman, he could almost guarantee it would work between the ages of three to eighty. The females would not be able to refuse him, and he would get his desired wish.
However, this method did not work on Leng Jun Yu.
âNo.â Leng Jun Yu curtly replied.
âAh. Why not? Senior brother, I only want one little eunuch! Donât you have so many in your residence? Why canât I have âhimâ?!?!â Nangong Jun Xi whined.
Leng Jun Yu pursed his lips as his pupils lightly flickered. There was a complicated look in his eyes. He was silent for a long time.
Just when Nangong Jun Xi thought he wasnât going to get a response, Leng Jun Yu lightly declared, âBecause, he belongs to me.â
