Chapter 69: Prince Rui smiled

“Prince Rui. Servant knows some solution in regards to dealing with floods and droughts. Servant was wondering if Prince Rui was willing to take some time and listen?”

Leng Jun Yu was surprised. He wasn’t expecting this. His cold pupils rested on Le Yao Yao for a moment. Both Le Yao Yao and Xiao Mu Zi were intimidated and nervous.

In addition, Xiao Mu Zi was doubtful. After all, when he brought Le Yao Yao here, he had no idea that Le Yao Yao was going to say something like this.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Le Yao Yao, but if the Emperor and his Imperial Ministers couldn’t solve it, what makes him think he can?!

Leng Jun Yu also had these thoughts running through his mind. But when he noticed Le Yao Yao’s glistening and determined pupils, he began to trust “him”.

After all, if “he” was totally uncertain, he wouldn’t have rushed over despite of his injury.

The moment Leng Jun Yu remembered “his” injury, his eyes flickered and he put down his book and pointed to the carved wooden chair as he calmly spoke in his low voice.

“Even if that is so, sit down before you speak.”

“Eh? Thank you Prince Rui!”

So, Le Yao Yao sat down and quickly spilled all her thoughts.

“Prince Rui, Servant has some ideas but isn’t sure if it will be able to take the burden off your chest. If servant is incorrect, please do not be angry!”

“Of course! If you are correct, this Prince shall heavily reward you.”

Le Yao Yao’s eyes immediately lit up. Initially, she just wanted to help Prince Rui because he had saved her life. But now that he mentioned about rewards, she was super excited on the inside.

After all, her position and salary was low at the residence. When will she be able to save up money?

So, this was the perfect opportunity for her to stand out amongst her peers. If she does a good job and makes the Prince happy, he might reward her with silver taels or an antique vase of some sort…

The moment Le Yao Yao imagined not having to worry about her living expenses for half a lifetime, her eyes and mouth broke into a curvy smile. The corners of her mouth were almost stretched to the borders of her ears. She was practically drooling.

But she had no idea that her classic greedy expression was naively displayed on her cute face.

Leng Jun Yu couldn’t help but curved into a slight smile as he observed Le Yao Yao from across the table.

“In order for a country to run well, five harms must first be eliminated.”

“Oh? Please continue.”

At first, Leng Jun Yu didn’t have high hopes for Le Yao Yao. After all, at the end of the day, Le Yao Yao was from a poor background. He had never gone through schooling. What type of solution could he possibly think of?

But seeing how determined he was, Leng Jun Yu knew “he” truly wanted to help him. So, he didn’t want to reject his good intentions.

If possible, he honestly wanted “him” to stay by his side forever…

Leng Jun Yu was taken aback by this sudden thought. But even more shocking was what Le Yao Yao said in continuation.

Honestly, Le Yao Yao wasn’t sure if the suggestions she said were correct. But using on her memory, she elaborated on all the relieve disaster plans she had studied from her previous life. Ex. How to prevent disasters, how to provide relief aid, how to feed immigrants and so on…

However, the more she went in depth, the more she felt like she was correct. Because the King of Hell’s tired and bloodshot eyes began to lit up with a glimmer of hope. It was like a candle that had ignited at night. It was a dazzling sight!

“How did you learn about this stuff?”

After Le Yao Yao was finished her explanation, astonishment appeared on Leng Jun Yu’s initial expressionless face. Even his tone of voice displayed disbelief.

Le Yao Yao felt relieved and satisfied because she knew her words could definitely help the King of Hell eliminate his recent stresses.

Hehe, after all, she was a new human being that had transmigrated from the 21st century! A search on the internet would provide many solutions to this type of stuff.

However, she obviously couldn’t tell the King of Hell the truth. So, she reservedly reached out to touch the back of her head and pretended to blush.

“Servant used to read a lot of books and then thought about it.”

“Oh, I see!”

Leng Jun Yu suddenly saw the light with Le Yao Yao’s assistance. It was as if he had helped him removed a huge rock off his chest and got rid of his evil aura. The corner of his mouth curved into a big smile.

Prince Rui’s smile was like a seductive poison. Le Yao Yao felt like her mind exploded as it turned blank. All of a sudden, her pulse began to jump like *bang bang bang*; as if a little rabbit had jumped inside and couldn’t stop itself.

Once again, it appeared that she had fallen for the King of Hell’s charm.

Leng Jun Yu noticed the peculiar expression on Le Yao Yao’s face and finally realized he was smiling.

He was actually quite amazed as well. Because it has been years since he smiled.

Since Le Yao Yao was staring at him so intently, Leng Jun Yu felt a bit shy. However, he still calmly returned the smile. Then, he told Le Yao Yao he must enter the Palace immediately and left the Study in huge strides.

After all, there was finally a solution to this issue. He must hurry and tell his brother Emperor. Brother Emperor must currently be worried sick about this.

At the same time, Leng Jun Yu couldn’t help but sigh on the inside. It appears that he had picked up a treasure.

Xiao Tu Zi…always had the ability to surprise him…

“Oh God! Is my vision blurry? Prince Rui..actually smiled?!”

Xiao Mu Zi was in shock. Then, he giggled. “Hoho! So it turns out the Prince can smile! I’ve only seen Prince Rui with an icy face. I thought he wasn’t capable of smiling! Eh, Xiao Yao Zi, why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?!”

Seeing how anxious Xiao Mu Zi was, Le Yao Yao felt her cheeks with two hands and realized they were burning.

Oh God! Was she turning red because of the King of Hell?!

Master was in a very good mood. This was the first time Mei and Xing had seen their Master so happy.

After all, they have been by Master’s side ever since they were little. Master had an icy face all year round. He had always been expressionless -even if the sky was crashing down, his eyebrows wouldn’t even crinkle.

In addition, Master had amazing martial arts abilities. Although he had a cold personality, he was a very fair person. They respected him very much.

However, Master never smiled. Even when Leng Jun Yu faced his brother or mentor, he would lessen the coldness, but remained serious.

In the past, they thought Master wasn’t capable of smiling.

But they were wrong.

It turned out Master could smile….when he meets the right person.
