The Eunuch is Pregnant

Chapter 149: The horse carriage



Chapter 149: The horse carriage

The moment Dongfang Bai said this, everyone froze in the room.

Nangong Jun Xi followed Dongfang Bai's eyes and saw that it led to Le Yao Yao. Suddenly, his peach blossom eyes flickered and shock could be seen.

"Bai, who is that certain someone?"

Although deep down, he already knew the answer, Nangong Jun Xi was in denial and still had to ask.

Could Bai also.

No way?! Oh God!?

What type of charm does this damn servant have?!

Not only has he became a victim, his senior brother and Bai have fallen as well

Thinking of this, Nangong Jun Xi felt hopeless. But even more so, frightened.

After all, the little eunuch was still having a cold battle with his senior brother. As for him, he had always treated him rather badly. Aside from arguing, they didn't have much conversation.

Whereas, towards Bai, Le Yao Yao was always perky and smiley.

Could it be that their feelings towards each other were mutual?

Thinking of this, Nangong Jun Xi furrowed his handsome brows. He began to stare at Le Yao Yao with bitterness and resentment.

As for Le Yao Yao, she didn't know what Nangong Jun Xi's problem was.

Why is he acting like hes her husband and shes his cheating wife?! What the heck?! Hes so jealous this early in the morning!? What a loser!

Le Yao Yao looked the other way because she didn't want to see Nangong Jun Xi's outrageous face. Instead, she much preferred Dongfang Bai's warm and scholarly face.

Hoho! Brother Bai is purposely coming to watch her show!

How sweet of him!

The more Le Yao Yao thought about it, the warmer she felt.

Hence, she gave Dongfang Bai a brilliant smile.

Seeing this, Dongfang Bai deepened his smile.

So the two of them were smiling at each other like no one else were around. They had no idea that a pair of long narrow pupils had taken in all of this.

Underneath the table, his five fingers began to tighten as he jabbed into his palms.

After breakfast, the horse carriage was ready. So, the King of Hell and his crew departed from the entrance.

Only rich nobles such as the King of Hell would ever have a chance to sit on such a magnificent horse carriage.

While Le Yao Yao was sighing and envying the wealthy, the three men had already leaped onto the carriage.

Since she was a lowly eunuch, she didn't have the qualifications to sit on the carriage. She could only walk and follow from the outside.

So, after the King of Hell, Nangong Jun Xi, and Dongfang Bai had entered the carriage, Le Yao Yao could only accept her misfortunes as determined by fate. She prepared her heart and mind to walk to the palace.

Her only wish was that the walk wouldn't be too long. Or else, her short legs will be sore and tired.

Especially because she had probably overworked herself recently. These days, she always wanted to take naps and was always feeling fatigued.

After the Dowager Empress's birthday celebration, she must return to the residence and sleep more to recuperate.

While Le Yao Yao was thinking to herself, suddenly, a pair of slender, white hands gently lifted the door curtain.

Along with it was Dongfang Bai's mellow and rich voice.

"Brother Yao, you're not getting on?"

"Eh?!"

Getting on?! She could sit on the carriage?

"Brother Yao, hurry and get on. It is quite a distance from the palace. Do you plan to walk there? We have room on the carriage."

But, Le Yao Yao was silently observing the King of Hell's expression.

The King of Hell was sitting inside with a book in his hand. He didn't have any reaction to Dongfang Bai's suggestion.

No reaction? That means, ok?!

Deep down, Le Yao Yao beamed.

After all, she wasn't stupid. If she could sit on the horse carriage, obviously she wouldn't say no! Only a fool would walk to the palace if they had the option to get a ride!

"Alright."

Then, Le Yao Yao began to scramble onto the horse carriage. After all, she had short legs and arms. The damn horse carriage was so high! Getting on was not an easy task for someone like her.

But just as she was struggling, Dongfang Bai reached out his hand to help her.

It was one attractive hand.

"Come, I'll pull you up."

"Mm."

Le Yao Yao nodded and trustingly took Dongfang Bai's hand.

On the contrary, when Dongfang Bai held onto Le Yao Yao's soft and delicate hands, his pupils couldn't help but flicker.

Although his face still wore his smile, his heart was quivering.

What a tiny pair of hands!

They're so soft and tiny do these hands really belong to a man?

Dongfang Bai felt very uneasy

Of course, Le Yao Yao had no idea what was on Dongfang Bai's mind. With his help, she quickly got onto the horse carriage as she scanned around her surroundings.

Inside, the carriage was very spacious.

There was an actual black sandalwood table at the very back. On top of it were a few book, ink and brushes.

Most likely, the King of Hell was also working during the times he headed to the Imperial court.

Aside from that table, there was another small table for food and snacks.

On top of it were tea cups, pastries, and some fruits.

As expected, the nobles truly knew how to enjoy life.

This was practically a luxurious small room.

Currently, the King of Hell and the 7th Prince were sitting on one side. Across from them was Dongfang Bai.

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao naturally went to sit next to Dongfang Bai.

After everyone was seated, the horse carriage slowly began to proceed towards its destination.

From the moment Le Yao Yao entered the carriage, the King of Hell never looked at her once. He was silently reading his book; as if the book was very intriguing and he couldn't part from it.

As for Nangong Jun Xi, he yawned and then stared out the window to look at the scenery with a bored expression.

While Le Yao Yao was quietly observing the two men in front of her, Dongfang Bai's rich voice suddenly entered her ears.

"Brother Yao, are you hungry? Have some pastries!"

"Eh, no it's okay."

Le Yao Yao had to say no. After all, amongst the four of them, her position was the lowest. If the nobles weren't eating, how could she eat? That would be unacceptable!

"It's fine. Brother Yao, you don't need to follow the rules so strictly."

"Brother Bai, it's finereally"

Originally, Le Yao Yao was going to keep refusing. But when she saw the delicious looking pastries in front of her face, she couldn't help but gulp down her saliva.

It was osmanthus cake!

Her favourite!

Pastries were the things she loved to eat the most! Although it had only been an hour since she ate two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge, her stomach was already empty and growling!

The *gulu gulu* sound wouldn't stop coming out from her stomach. Immediately, Le Yao Yao's face crumpled. Then, she awkwardly laughed. She didn't want to make her stomach suffer.

So, Le Yao Yao decided not to reject Dongfang Bai's kind intentions and instantly picked up a piece of the osmanthus cake. She took a huge bite and munched on it.

"Mm! It's so yummy!" Le Yao Yao chirped.

"Brother Bai, you should try some! It's delicious!"

"No thanks, I don't like sweet things."

"Really?! How about the 7th Prince and Prince Rui?! Have a piece! It's really great!"

Since she was eating their food, Le Yao Yao felt the need to share.

However, Nangong Jun Xi crinkled his brows and gave her a look of disgust. "This Prince does not like sweet things."

"Eh?"

You don't have to eat if you don't want to! But what's with your disgusted expression?! You picky eater! Despicable!

"And there's no need to ask senior brother to eat. Senior brother doesn't like sweet things either!"
