Chapter 193: Vomiting

After Nangong Jun Xi leaped into her room and made his unbelievable confession, Le Yao Yao didn’t know how to face him anymore.

Surprisingly, after serving the King of Hell in the morning, she didn’t see Nangong Jun Xi’s face at all.

It wasn’t until she was in the cafeteria that she found out from another little eunuch that the moment he woke up, the 7th Prince was nowhere to be seen. He had no idea where the 7th Prince went.

Based on what the little eunuch said, could it be that Nangong Jun Xi hadn’t returned to his room ever since last night? Where did he go?

Since Le Yao Yao’s thoughts were bombarding her, she couldn’t enjoy her meal.

Sitting across from her was still Xiao Mu Zi. Lately, Xiao Mu Zi had grown a lot from drinking half a bowl of her swallow nest soup on a daily basis. Aside from his growth spurt, Xiao Mu Zi also gained a lot of muscles. It was a huge contrast from the thin and weak boy she had met at the beginning.

Furthermore, Xiao Mu Zi was starting to look more handsome. Honestly, he would be quite a catch amongst the ladies. Sadly, he was a eunuch.

However, Le Yao Yao was the complete opposite of Xiao Mu Zi. Despite drinking half a bowl of swallow nest soup everyday and eating more and more, she didn’t grow at all.

She still had short arms and legs. Surprisingly, her boobs seemed to be expanding a bit.

Since Le Yao Yao was a fake eunuch, she was delighted. In three years, she was going to leave here and be rid of her eunuch identity! So knowing that her boobs were growing was wonderful news.

Le Yao Yao used an extra waist band to tie around her waist to prevent anyone from discovering her female identity.

Anyhow, Le Yao Yao felt quite bad towards Nangong Jun Xi. But her stomach was too hungry. So, she forgot about him and decided to fill her stomach first.

When Xiao Mu Zi noticed the three empty bowls in front of Le Yao Yao, his eyes were bulging. He was speechless.

“Xiao Yao Zi, I noticed you’re able to eat more and more these days!”

*burp*

“Yeah. I’m going through puberty. It’s not a big deal. Look at you! You’re eating a lot too!”

Le Yao Yao stared at the five bowls in front of Xiao Mu Zi.

After chatting with Xiao Mu Zi for a bit longer, she decided to tidy up and return to work. But suddenly, Le Yao Yao felt her stomach rolling. She felt incredibly nauseous.

*clang* All her tableware fell onto the ground. Everyone turned around to stare.

But Le Yao Yao was too unwell to care. She covered her mouth with both her hands and dashed out of the cafeteria. Then, she went over to the garbage can and began to vomit violently.

Not only did Le Yao Yao throw up her entire meal, she was practically throwing up bile.

Now, Le Yao Yao was deathly pale.

Xiao Mu Zi also chased after Le Yao Yao. He was very concerned. He quickly ran to the kitchen and poured a warm cup of water for Le Yao Yao.

At this moment, Le Yao Yao had already lost all her strength from throwing up. She almost collapsed onto the ground.

Fortunately, Xiao Mu Zi came out just in time and held onto Le Yao Yao’s soft and boneless body. He led her to a wooden stool as he took out his handkerchief and gently helped Le Yao Yao wipe the puke off her mouth. Then, he handed her a cup of warm water.

“Here, have a drink of water, Xiao Yao Zi!”

“Thank you.”

“Are you alright? You were vomiting so hard! You must be ill. Why don’t you go see a physician?”

“I’m fine now. Maybe I ate too much. These days, my stomach hasn’t been feeling well either. Perhaps that’s why I puked? Aiii… but that was a waste of my swallow nest soup.”

Le Yao Yao didn’t want Xiao Mu Zi to worry about her, so she gave him a comforting smile. But deep down, she decided she must get brother Bai to help her take a look. Lately, she constantly felt nauseous. Maybe she had food poisoning? Why else would she throw up? It’s not like she was pregnant.  (tl: or so she thinks….)

However, brother Bai was away at another city for the next few days. He was personally curing a patient. Le Yao Yao wasn’t sure when he would return, but when he does, she will go get a check-up.

Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao decided to go take a rest and returned to Ya Feng Ge.

—–

Recently, taking an afternoon nap after lunch was one of the things Le Yao Yao looked forward to. Since barely anyone lived or worked at Ya Feng Ge, Le Yao Yao was very free after she was done her usual tasks. So, by the time she woke up from her nap, it would be almost sunset and just in time to serve the King of Hell for supper.

So, Le Yao Yao went back to her room and began to snooze.

By the time she woke up, it was a few hours later. Based on the colours of the sky, it should be around 5 or 6pm in modern time.

Since the days were longer during the summer, it was still very bright in the evening.

After her power nap, Le Yao Yao felt as if all her strength had returned. However, her stomach was rumbling.

*gulu gulu*. Le Yao Yao placed her hands on her tummy and continuously drank a few cups of tea. Then, she rushed to the cafeteria.

She will have to serve the King of Hell soon. So, she must have her meal now! Usually, Le Yao Yao would have her dinner before she served the King of Hell.

But today, while she was on the way to the cafeteria, she saw a bunch of little eunuchs surrounding a huge tree. One of them was crying. As for the others, they were walking around the tree like they wanted to climb on it.

These little eunuchs must be a new batch that came in recently. In addition, they were very young! They looked like they were around twelve or thirteen years of age.

If they were in the 21st century, they would only be in Grade 7 or 8! Yet, they were servants in this era and their xx were chopped off….. Poor kids.

“Hey… it’s almost dinner time. Why are you all standing around for?”

“Xiao Hu’s kite got caught by the tree. We can’t take it down. The kite is a present his father gave him on his 12th birthday before he came to the residence….”

Hearing this, Le Yao Yao turned to the little eunuch named Xiao Hu.

Currently, the little eunuch’s face was filled with tears. Both his eyes and nose were running.

Le Yao Yao felt bad and looked up.

The tree was at least hundreds of years old. The branches were criss-crossed and the leaves were lush. Even if she was to use a long stick to poke it, the kite would probably still be stuck. In a worse case scenario, she would damage it!

The only solution was to climb up to retrieve the kite.

But all the little eunuchs were shorter than her. She was already short, yet they barely reached her shoulders.

“Alright, I will help you get your kite back!”

“What? Big brother!?! Really? You will help us?”

Hearing this, all the little eunuchs were shocked. Their eyes were filled with gratitude. Xiao Hu also stopped crying.

Le Yao Yao didn’t want to disappoint them so she smacked her chest.

“Watch me!”

Then, Le Yao Yao took a deep breath and gathered all her strength. She walked over to the tree and began to climb.

When she was little, she was great at tree climbing. She was almost like a monkey!

Although many years had gone by, her skills were still great in this new body.

“Big brother, go go go!”

“Big brother, you’re almost there! Just a bit more….”

“Big brother, hold on! You must hold on!”

Le Yao Yao felt a surge of energy from all the cheering. Eventually, she reached the top.
