Chapter 199: Can you return earlier tomorrow?

“Xiao Yao Zi. You have no idea. These days, you’re always smiling like a fool! Did you encounter something extraordinary? Speaking of which, Prince Rui also seems to be in a very good mood. We see him smiling all the time. I wonder what happened to him…”

The King of Hell was happy? Hoho. Was it because of her?

Hehe. So this is what being in love feels like!

Suddenly, Le Yao Yao remembered something. “Oh! Xiao Mu Zi, what day is today?”

“Eh? Xiao Yao Zi, today is the 14th! What’s wrong?”

“Ohhhh. It’s already the 14th!? Tomorrow is my birthday!”

“What?! Tomorrow is your birthday? How come you have never said anything about it before? Hmmm. Xiao Yao Zi, what would you like as a present? I will buy you a gift but please don’t pick something expensive because I don’t have much money….” Xiao Mu Zi awkwardly placed his hand behind his head.

“I don’t need any gifts. Having you as a friend is already more than enough.”

Le Yao Yao was speaking the truth. Hearing this, Xiao Mu Zi smiled and threw his arm around Le Yao Yao, “Hehe. I actually feel the same! I’m so happy to have you as a friend, Xiao Yao Zi!”

“Woah. Xiao Mu Zi, lately, you’ve grown a lot and your strength has increased dramatically too!”

“Huh? Sorry. Xiao Yao Zi, I didn’t mean to hurt you! I was too touched by our friendship.”

Le Yao Yao knew Xiao Mu Zi didn’t mean to hurt her, so she didn’t say anything else.

Instead, she was wondering on the inside. Would the King of Hell celebrate her birthday with her tomorrow?

——

When Leng Jun Yu returned back to the residence for dinner, Le Yao Yao did her normal duties to serve him. However, because she had so much she wanted to say, Le Yao Yao kept peeking at Leng Jun Yu. She wanted to find an opportunity to ask him if he was available tomorrow.

Leng Jun Yu could tell right away something was bothering Le Yao Yao. After he was done eating, he lightly placed down his bowl and chopsticks. Then, he waved his hand in the air and the servants immediately removed the dishes off the table.

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao handed a cup of tea to Leng Jun Yu.

“Prince Rui, please drink tea.”

“Right now, there’s no one here.”

Le Yao Yao could hear the undertone meaning. She lowered her face and hesitated. Then, she lightly whispered, “Yu, please drink tea.”

“Ah….!” Le Yao Yao felt her waist tightening. Before she knew it, Prince Rui had pulled her into his arms. Her butt landed on top of his muscular thigh.

It was such a sexual and romantic gesture. Le Yao Yao began to blush like mad as she struggled to get out of his embrace.

Leng Jun Yu murmured in her ear, “You’ve been watching this Prince for a while now. Is there something you want to ask me?”

“Umm…. so you’ve noticed….” Le Yao Yao blushed.

The King of Hell was truly the King of Hell! He had such sharp senses!

“So, tell me what you want to say.” Leng Jun Yu lifted her delicate chin as he confidently commanded in his low and husky voice.

Le Yao Yao’s cheeks were so red. Her eyes began to twinkle and her hands were continuously playing with her fingers. After a long time, she finally asked, “Umm…Yu.. do you have time tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow? What’s happening tomorrow?”

Tomorrow is her birthday! Well, it’s probably not the previous body owner’s birthday. But it was her 21st century birthday. This was the first birthday she would be celebrating in this era. She wanted to spend it with the person she likes.

But Le Yao Yao didn’t know how to say it to the King of Hell.

She couldn’t directly tell him to spend time with her on her birthday, right? He wasn’t an ordinary person. He was Prince Rui of the Heaven Yuan dynasty! What if he’s busy tomorrow? She couldn’t tell him to skip work to spend time with her.

“Umm.. it’s nothing big. But, Yu, if you’re not too busy tomorrow, could you return back to the residence earlier?”

Leng Jun Yu could see the hopeful glint in Le Yao Yao’s eyes. He quietly observed him and then opened his mouth. “Alright. Tomorrow, this Prince will return back earlier.”

“Really?”

“Of course! This Prince will never break his promise to you.”

“Hehe. Yu. I trust you….” (tl: I trust yu. Get it? Haha I’m so punny!)

Since the King of Hell promised to return back earlier, Le Yao Yao was in a great mood the moment she woke up.

After the King of Hell left for the Imperial Court, Le Yao Yao went to clean Ya Feng Ge.

At lunch, Xiao Mu Zi purposely brought her longevity noodles and red eggs to celebrate.  

“Xiao Yao Zi, I don’t have much money and I can’t afford to get you anything extravagant. I hope you won’t look down on my gifts.”

“Oh Xiao Mu Zi! I would never look down on things you give me!” Le Yao Yao gave Xiao Mu Zi a lot of face and devoured everything.

Lately, her appetite had been very good. After eating all this, Le Yao Yao could still eat another bowl of rice!

Xiao Mu Zi smiled across from her. “Xiao Yao Zi, you sure can eat a lot! But what I don’t understand is how come you’re not getting any fatter?! Also, you’re eating as much as my cousin’s wife!”

“Ah? How come your cousin’s wife can eat so much?”

It was kind of odd how she wasn’t gaining any visible fat despite the amount she ate though…

“My cousin’s wife is pregnant! She’s only two months but she can eat like a mad woman. In the morning, she eats two steamed buns for breakfast and a huge bowl of porridge. For lunch, she eats four bowls or rice. At night, she eats another four bowls of rice anddddd a midnight snack. Then, she goes to bed. But she hasn’t been gaining any weight either. My cousin says it’s because there’s a baby in her stomach. The baby is absorbing everything! So, that’s why my cousin’s wife is eating so much!”

“Eh…Xiao Mu Zi, your cousin’s wife is pregnant. How can you compare herself with me? Are you trying to tease me?”

“Hehe. I’m just making a comparison! Don’t take it the wrong way. Xiao Yao Zi, you have to eat more so you can gain more strength!”

Normally, Le Yao Yao felt like a day goes by very quickly. Her routine was set. After the King of Hell goes to the Imperial Court, she would tidy up Ya Feng Ge and then go for lunch. After doing some random errands, she would take an afternoon nap and wake up just in time in the evening to serve the King of Hell’s dinner. Then, she would shower and return to her room to sleep.

However, today, after she had finished lunch, the King of Hell still had not returned yet. Le Yao Yao was feeling anxious.

She had already completed all her tasks. So now, she was just staring at the entrance while she waited for the familiar figure to appear.

But time slowly passed, minute by minute, Leng Jun Yu was nowhere to be seen. By now, the Sun was right above the sky and the temperature was gradually rising higher and higher.

So, Le Yao Yao didn’t wait by the entrance anymore. She went to sit under the shady pavilion.

The pavilion was surrounded by water. Whenever there was a breeze, it was very cool and comfortable. Not to mention, she could still see those who would be entering or exiting Ya Feng Ge from here.

So, Le Yao Yao nibbled on melon seeds as she stared at the entrance without blinking.

It was a lovely day. The sky was blue and the clouds were white. It appeared sunny for thousands of miles.  

The trees seemed to be filled with limitless amounts of energy. It wouldn’t stop making noises.

However, Le Yao Yao was in no mood to enjoy the scenery. “Why isn’t he back yet?” she wondered.

Soon, Le Yao Yao began to feel sleepy. After all, usually at this time, she would be taking her afternoon nap! So, Le Yao Yao laid on the stone table and fell asleep.

By the time Le Yao Yao woke up, she noticed it was sunset.

Oh God! She slept for this long!?

But where was the King of Hell? Has he returned yet?

Le Yao Yao quickly wiped the drool off her face with her sleeves and ran around Ya Feng Ge.

However, she didn’t see the person she was waiting for. Instead, she almost crashed into Xing.

“Hey, Xiao Yao Zi! Why are you in such a panic? Did something happen?” Xing asked out of curiosity.

Le Yao Yao tugged onto Xing’s sleeves. “Xing, you’re back! Is Prince Rui back as well?”

“Prince Rui is not back. Why?”

“Oh…Prince Rui is still not back yet…” Le Yao Yao mumbled. Her voice was filled with disappointment. She tried to do some self-comforting. “I guess it can’t be helped. Prince Rui is busy with many important tasks. It’s normal for him to return late….”

Although Le Yao Yao spoke very quietly, Xing was able to hear her since he was a trained martial artist. He spoke without thinking. “No, today wasn’t busy. Prince Rui finished at the Imperial Court quite early. But on the way back, a crazy horse appeared and kept colliding with people, shops and stalls. It almost….”
