CH 178

Chapter 178: Tripping twice

Leng Jun Yu crinkled his brows and frowned. After pausing for a moment, he opened his mouth, “Don’t you have a coachman?”

Leng Jun Yu’s voice was cold. No emotions could be detected.

Hearing this, Nian Sulan’s smile froze on her face. Disappointment could be seen in her eyes. She didn’t think Leng Jun Yu would refuse her request.

Ever since she was little, she always had the Dowager Empress to back her up. In addition, countless of men would go above and beyond for her. She was so used to people revolving around her. Although she enjoyed the attention, she didn’t want any of them.

She only wanted one man; the man who was in front of her. Yet, he was the only one who wouldn’t do as she bids.

She genuinely hope that one day, this icy man would change for her.

Suddenly, a spark of hope shot out from her eyes.

It will happen! She, Nian Sulan, will get the man she wants regardless of what it takes!

Not only will she get his physical body, she will also get his heart!

Even if his heart was frozen, she shall warm it up! She didn’t mind sticking her hot face against his cold ass! (tl:… ok..)

Thinking of this, Nian Sulan had already recovered.

“No, Cousin Yu! Before you left the Palace, you promised Aunt that you will take care of me. It’s already so late. What if I happen to encounter a bunch of gangsters? Cousin Yu, I’m afraid…”

At the very end, Nian Sulan revealed a horrified face. Then, her pupils instantly became misty and she looked extremely pitiful.

Le Yao Yao saw this and couldn’t help but sighed deep down. Originally, she thought she was gifted at acting. But now, she realized that there were always people who could surpass her. Nian Sulan’s acting was to the point of perfection.

Would the King of Hell be touched by her performances? After all, there was a saying that goes, “Men chase women; separated by a mountain. Women chase men; separated by a layer of muslin.”

While Le Yao Yao was wondering, she was already following behind Nangong Jun Xi’s footsteps. After all, what type of guy would refuse a hot babe’s request? The King of Hell will definitely take her home like he did yesterday.

As expected, while Le Yao Yao was walking away, she heard Leng Jun Yu’s low raspy voice.

“Alright, let’s go then.”

“Yay! Cousin Yu is the best!”

From Nian Sulan’s voice, Le Yao Yao could tell she was delighted. She must be so happy right now.

How about the King of Hell? Deep down, he must like her right? Or else, with his personality, why would he take her home?

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao felt like she was drowning in vinegar. Her little brain was hanging very low.

She followed behind Dongfang Bai. But just as she was about to step off the boat, something suddenly rocked the boat and it began to sway violently.

It happened too abruptly, and Le Yao Yao lost her balance. She was about to tip over.

“Ahhhh!” Le Yao Yao could tell she was about to fall off the boat and into the water. Although she could swim, it was in the middle of the night and everything looked pitch black. Looking down, the water was like the mouth of a ferocious monster.

Le Yao Yao felt as if her heart was going to fall out from fright. Due to her panicky state, she shut her eyes and waited to slam into the dark, cold river.

But at that very moment, someone tightly grabbed her hands. She slowly fluttered her eyes open.

The scene that greeted her shocked her again. It turned out that the King of Hell had grabbed onto one hand, while Dongfang Bai was holding onto the other.

They saved her from falling into the river. The two men gazed at each other awkwardly.

Then, Leng Jun Yu spoke up, “I got it.”

“Mm.” Dongfang Bai lightly replied and released Le Yao Yao’s hand.

Leng Jun Yu pulled Le Yao Yao up as if she was a weightless feather. But if one paid closer attention, they would see a flash of concern in his emotionless pupils.

When Le Yao Yao firmly had her feet back onto the boat, she finally relaxed. But her face was still white as paper and everyone was concerned.

“Are you alright?” Leng Jun Yu’s handsome brows were crinkled as he asked.

Le Yao Yao lifted her white face and tried to give him a smile to show she was fine. But she had no idea that her smile was uglier than her crying face.

“This s-servant is fine….”

Since Le Yao Yao looked like she was about to walk away, Leng Jun Yu released his hand.

Unexpectedly, Le Yao Yao’s feet were acting like jelly and she began to fall forward.

But this time, she didn’t fall overboard. Instead, she crashed into a warm, firm chest.

A familiar scent of ambergris entered her nose. It smelled so good.

But when Le Yao Yao realized she had crashed into the King of Hell again, she immediately tried to get out of his embrace. Yet, she was a step too late.

Le Yao Yao felt her waist tightening and suddenly, she was in mid air.

Leng Jun Yu’s gesture was too unexpected. Le Yao Yao was unprepared. After ahh-ing, she subconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck.

She didn’t do that on purpose either.

But her movement caused Leng Jun Yu to chuckle.

She wanted to let go, but it was as if Leng Jun Yu knew what she was thinking, so he deliberately loosened his grip.

Le Yao Yao was so afraid that she instantly held on tighter. Her heart was beating at an insanely pace! Deep down, she knew the King of Hell did it on purpose. So, Le Yao Yao was both frustrated and embarrassed.

Leng Jun Yu was holding onto her like how those Princes would carry Princesses in fairy tales. In addition, it was in front of everyone!!

Le Yao Yao was so embarrassed that she made eye contact with the man’s narrow frozen pupils.

But since Prince Rui’s back was against the light, all his features were hidden by the darkness. No one could see his expression.

However, Le Yao Yao could feel his intense and fiery stare and it was as if a hot blast of air directly entered her head from her heart.

“Prince Rui, this servant is fine. This servant can walk on his own.”

Le Yao Yao was telling the truth. She wasn’t that weak. Earlier, she was just too slow and a bit overwhelmed from the fall. She could totally walk now.

Plus, there were so many people here watching them!

Hello!?! You’re a freakin Prince and you’re carrying a eunuch around like a Princess? What would others think of you?

Leng Jun Yu knew what Le Yao Yao was thinking about. But he didn’t mind at all.

After all, he was used to all the rumours people spread about him. He didn’t care if they were real or fake. The opinion of others did not matter to him.

Furthermore, it was as if this little person was designed specifically for him. He was a perfect fit for his body. When he carried “him”, his frozen heart felt much warmer…

He didn’t want to let go.

Thinking of this, Leng Jun Yu responded with no expression. “This Prince does not want to have to fish you out from the river.”

“Eh…?”

Does he really think she was that weak?!

At the same time, Le Yao Yao felt a sharp killer glare heading her way. She immediately turned to the source and saw Nian Sulan’s furious expression.

Nian Sulan looked like she wanted to draw blood at first prick. In addition, she was too stunned by the scene before her.

When did a man who never cared about anything or anyone ever show so much concern for a person?

Not only that, the person was a eunuch!?!

That’s… that’s just outrageous!
