Chapter 71: Your reward is….
“Mmm. Xiao Tu Zi, you have made a great contribution. The Emperor heard your suggestions and couldn’t stop praising you. He said he must heavily reward you!”
Hearing Leng Jun Yu’s words, Le Yao Yao was thrilled. Xiao Mu Zi was also very excited.
“Haha! Really?! The Emperor couldn’t stop praising me…?” Le Yao Yao beamed.
More importantly, he wants to heavily reward her. Oh God! This time, she’s going to be rich!! Muahahahahaha!
As Le Yao Yao thought about it, it was as if a huge golden mountain had appeared in front of her face. In addition, the sky was continuously raining banknotes with a value of silver…
Money money money!!
In the past, she was never crazy over money. She wasn’t greedy either. After all, she came from a rich background. There was nothing she lacked or felt an urge to splurge on.
But now, it was a different story. She had arrived in this unfamiliar ancient era without any real family. She doesn’t know the identity of this body nor its past. Worse of all, she had to take the role of a little eunuch! She was merely a servant, and her monthly wage was so low! At this rate, she was going to live a very difficult life!
So, if she was given a huge sum of money, she wouldn’t have to worry about her living expenses for the rest of her life!
By now, Le Yao Yao’s eyes were sparkling like copper coins. Seeing this, the corner of Leng Jun Yu’s mouth curved into a smile.
He had seen many greedy individuals throughout his life, but he had never seen such an obvious and cute one.
Initially, he had planned to heavily reward the little eunuch for his contributions. Whatever “he” wanted, “he” would have granted. After all, “he” deserved it.
But when Leng Jun Yu heard about “his” plan to save up and leave this place, he was extremely upset and irritated.
His heart felt congested, as if there was a piece of cotton stuck inside. He loathe the feeling.
Because, he didn’t want “him” to leave. He wanted “him” to stay. So he must think of a way to cut off all his methods of leaving!
Thinking of this, Leng Jun Yu’s cold pupils narrowed with a trace of radiant glow.
“Yes. This Prince must also heavily reward Xiao Tu Zi! Tell me, Xiao Tu Zi, what type of reward would you like?”
Originally, Le Yao Yao was planning to tell the King of Hell to reward her with some silver taels. But after thinking about it, wouldn’t the King of Hell think she was extremely greedy?
Plus, deep down, everyone knows what eunuchs wanted. It was unnecessary to say it out loud. Based on the King of Hell’s intelligence, he should definitely know she wants money. The only question would be, how much?
Rather than being so demanding, she might as well just let the King of Hell decide! He was so wealthy. Surely, he wouldn’t be a cheap ass, right?
Now that she had thought it over, Le Yao Yao pretended to a modest individual and lowered her eyes. “Actually, servant has not thought about what type of reward to receive. Being able to help share the Prince’s burden is already a huge blessing to servant.”
Hehe. Everyone likes flattery! The King of Hell should be no exception!
Le Yao Yao was secretly delighted. Although her head was lowered and her facial expressions couldn’t be seen, Prince Rui could still tell what Le Yao Yao was thinking based on her spasmodic shoulders.
Leng Jun Yu’s smile deepened and his sexy voice followed.
“This Prince has always been fair. This time, it is no exception. Since you haven’t thought about what you wanted, then allow me to think.. Hmm…what should I reward you?”
At this moment, the King of Hell suddenly paused and appeared to be deep in thought. His smiling pupils darted around Le Yao Yao’s figure and he murmured.
“Mm..you’re too thin. You must not be eating enough….”
Although his voice was low, it was loud enough for those present to hear. Hearing the King of Hell’s words, Le Yao Yao’s smile widened.
Yes yes! She is too thin! That’s why he must reward her heavily so she has money to buy quality food to nourish her body!
Or else, when will these boobs grow?
Even though she was technically a eunuch and it was extremely inappropriate to have boobs, females naturally want big boobs! She was no exception!!
Currently, Le Yao Yao was envisioning a very generous reward. Unexpectedly, the King of Hell’s next sentence made her feel like she had been shocked by lightning.
“Since that is so, this Prince will reward you a bowl of swallow’s nest* soup! It will help nourish your body!”
“W-what….?! A bowl of swallow’s nest soup?!”
S-s-she must have heard incorrectly, right?!
Ahhhhhhhhhhh…..
“Of course it isn’t just one bowl! I should be more clear, a bowl a day!”
Seeing Le Yao Yao’s speechless and flabbergasted expression, it wasn’t totally obvious whether she liked or disliked the reward. But Leng Jun Yu was quite sure it was the latter.
However, even so, he must destroy all his thoughts of leaving so that “he” will remain with him forever!
Furthermore, he honestly want this little guy to nourish his body. He looked so tiny that a heavy wind could blow him away. That will simply not do! It made him worried.
Le Yao Yao had no idea what the King of Hell was thinking. All she knew was that her dream was crushed.
Originally, she thought she was going to receive a very generous reward.
Actually, the King of Hell was very generous. He bestowed her a bowl of swallow’s nest soup a day.
It was swallow’s nest!
Although she often drank this back home, with her current status in this era, it was unheard of!
But….could she redeem it for cash?
“Umm…Prince Rui, could I…..”
“Hmm? Xiao Tu Zi has something to say? Or is it because you’re not satisfied by my choice of reward?!”
Wuwu……
Her moneyyyyyy…….
On the inside, Le Yao Yao was howling like a ghost and crying internal tears. But how would she dare to say “no” to this unstable King of Hell?
Unless she didn’t want to live anymore?!
So, despite feeling very wronged, she had to strongly suppress her resentment. Thinking, although I lost the watermelon, but at least I have a banana! (tl: LOL ok)
The more she thought about it, the calmer she felt. So she looked like she was about to shed tears of gratitude as she responded enthusiastically, “No no no, that was not servant’s intentions. Servant is just too grateful to Prince Rui. Prince Rui cares so much about servant’s body! Servant admires Prince like the torrential river water….” I hope it sweeps you away!
Leng Jun Yu could tell that Le Yao Yao was actually very unwilling on the inside, even though he was sweet talking. But for some reason, Leng Jun Yu felt great and relaxed.
He had seen too many crafty and treacherous people in the Palace. In his eyes, Le Yao Yao was like a little bunny amongst the pack of wolves. He was rare and precious!
Now that he knows the little bunny will have no choice but to obediently remain by his side, the King of Hell’s mood clearly improved.
Due to the flood and drought incidents, he hadn’t slept for the past three nights. Since he had also consumed quite a bit of alcohol earlier, he was finally feeling the effects. Now, he just wanted to sleep.
But since Le Yao Yao’s ankle was still injured, Xiao Mu Zi served him instead.
After Le Yao Yao thanked Prince Rui for her reward, she went back to her room by herself.
After she took a bath and rinsed her mouth, Le Yao Yao sat down to apply medication on her ankle.
It was some godly medicine. This morning, she couldn’t even walk. But by the afternoon, the swelling had evidently decreased. Now, it was simply pink but it didn’t hurt anymore. She could freely walk.
Seeing this, Le Yao Yao was very happy.
After she was done applying medicine, Le Yao Yao laid on the bed. In no time, she was sound asleep.

Thanks for reading!!
Wan so rewarding…a bowl of shallow’s nest once a day, so nourishing haha
Thank you!
Lol she wants money ?
Eh, swallow nest is so rare back then, Le Yao Yao should have poked the reward back to simple food like hand food like finger food. Since she’s around him now.
If Prince Rui wants a back message from time to time. Le Yao Yao should be having fun, as enjoying the chewing, “moving her tongue to check for leftovers and clean” and trouble like unconscious hard pressing Prince Rui,while doing the back massaging.
Lol what?!? Moving her tongue to check for leftovers and clean?! ?
I kind of feel happy that the Prince wants her to stay by his side, but still felt bad for LYY as I think she should still get the reward that she deserves. Thanks for this update.
Yeah!!! Poor girl. But it’s ok. He treats her really well. Hehe
hahaha little bunny you are trapped. do not ever thinking of leaving the KH.
Haha!! She is trapped indeed! ?
Well mission accomplished Prince Rui. That was one way to slow down her exit. Don’t worry she is very resourceful and will think of something new to support her leaving.
Too Too funny. What will her and Xiao Mu Zi say about this gift form the prince?
Thank you for this update It is so much fun to read your work.
Thank you
I am so glad you like my work! I put a lot of time and effort haha. Hehe she is gonna keep trying to think of ways to escape!
Swallow nest is delish
Lol I have never tried. ??? but I believe you!
Thank you very much for this and all previous chapters.
I feel I should just note that the ‘lied’ in the last sentence should, in fact, be ‘lay’ as ‘lied’ is the past tense of ‘to lie’ as in tell falsehoods, whereas ‘lay’ is the past tense of ‘to lie’ as in, to lie down.
Thanks for the correction! I will fix it when I am on the laptop later!
The dish may sound gross but remember honey is also made from bee barf. Hahaha. And honey is delicious and nutritious! I love honey!
Thank you for translating. Your translations are very natural and not at all stilted. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for reading! I am glad you like it! I spend a lot of time on my work. ?
Lol. I thought he’d grant her as a title of being his eunuch forever. I checked out the swift’s nest soup ft. Gordon Ramsay. I’d be a bit more hesitant to try that out really. Thanks for the chapters! I really all of the series you translate~

Thanks for reading! I hope you will also read Supernatural Girlfriend!
