Chapter 99: Let’s make a bet
This time, Le Yao Yao really couldn’t take it anymore.
After all, in the past, she was from a wealthy family. But she had never acted so arrogant or despicable just because she had money. Her father had always told her to keep a low profile. But now that she had encountered someone who deserved to get a good spanking, she was simply not going to let this go.
So Le Yao Yao momentarily forgot that Leng Jun Yu was present as she turned around and directly faced Nangong Jun Xi. Due to his offensive words, her cute face had turned as red as a ripe apple.
“7th Prince, although servant is merely a little eunuch who may seem like an insignificant speck of dust to you, servant is still human. Servant has feelings and servant can get angry. Servant also has dignity. Although servant hasn’t studied tens of thousands of scrolls nor am I proficient in poetry like the 7th Prince, servant is not an idiot. Servant can also reflect. So why must the 7th Prince look down on servant so much? Is it purely because servant was born with low status, so servant doesn’t deserve respect from others?”
“True, servant was born with a low status. But that was not servant’s choice. Also, 7th Prince, honestly speaking, you’re just fortunate you’re born with a high status. If you didn’t have your respectable status, what else do you have? 7th Prince, have you ever earned a single tael with your own ability? No, right? But servant has! Although servant is only a little eunuch, servant has used his two hands and worked hard to earn money. Hence, servant lives an honest and steady life. So, 7th Prince, if you want others to respect you, please respect yourself first!”
Le Yao Yao’s furious glare had never shifted away from Nangong Jun Xi. Because she was truly angry. Ever since arriving here, she had gradually accepted her eunuch status. In this ancient era, she had no family or relatives. She had to live awkwardly and uncomfortably.
But now that she had vented, her heart felt much more at ease.
After all, she said she wanted to say without any fear! She was being her true self.
However, Le Yao Yao had no idea that her words stunned the two nobles that were in the room.
Leng Jun Yu knew his little eunuch was a bit different from the rest, but he didn’t know he was so good at talking “dao” (reason).
Especially “his” last line: If you want others to respect you, please respect yourself first!
So good!
Thinking of this, Leng Jun Yu gazed at Le Yao Yao admiringly. Then, he looked over at his flabbergasted junior brother and secretly laughed up his sleeve.
Seeing this, Nangong Jun Xi was in shock. After all, he had lived for 17 years and this was the first time someone had ever lectured him like this.
But after processing the little eunuch’s words, he realized what Le Yao Yao said was true. If he wasn’t born with this respectable position, would he be so confident and at ease? Carefree and without worries? Currently, he could do whatever he wanted.
In addition, ever since he was born, he never had to earn any money using his own hands. After all, he was born with the golden key. Money was something that he never lacked.
So now, Nangong Jun Xi realized his words were unreasonable. But honestly, he couldn’t help but say things that would attract “his” attention. He wanted the little eunuch to notice him, and not others. But since his competition was his senior brother, it felt strange.
At this moment, Nangong Jun Xi was unsure of his heart. How come he has been acting so strange lately? Was he ill? Or perhaps, he wasn’t accustomed to this climate yet?
Nangong Jun Xi knew he should apologize, but he had never apologized to anyone in his whole life. So in the end, he didn’t say a word.
“7th Prince, why don’t we make a bet?” Le Yao Yao blurted.
“Bet?”
“Yes, let’s bet. Although the talent show competition is fake, the judges are not. This time, servant and the 7th Prince will be both performing as women on stage. So why don’t we see who has the ability to get 1st place in the competition?!”
Le Yao Yao was that sort of person. If others looked down on her, she must prove them wrong with her own abilities so that they will accept defeat wholeheartedly!
Furthermore, she was very confident about her abilities. In the past, she would relentlessly work hard towards whatever she wanted. She always tried her best.
She didn’t only do it for her parents, but for herself as well!
“Alright. Let’s bet. But what’s at stake?”
Only a coward would refuse Le Yao Yao’s challenge. Nangong Jun Xi was never afraid of losing. He loved challenges!
“Whoever that loses must agree to one thing the winner asks for. Obviously, this excludes killing, setting things on fire, and all the things that go against integrity!” Le Yao Yao declared.
“Haha! Sounds interesting! You are sure courageous. You’re the first person that dared to challenge me!”
“Haha, you’re also the first person I want to challenge ever since arriving here!” And also the person she wanted to beat up the most….
Due to their bet, Le Yao Yao worked very hard to practice her skill for the competition. She was going to do the thing she does best –
Dancing!
Initially, she was going to sing. But after thinking about it, she decided that singing was too common. So she decided to dance instead. Surprisingly, this body’s flexibility was unimaginable.
This previous owner must have been a dancer. Only a dancer would have a body as elastic as this.
The movements she had trouble doing back in her 21st century body was a piece of cake for this body.
So, Le Yao Yao was very puzzled over this body. If Xiao Mu Zi said the owner of this body came from a poor family, then why does this body have such fair skin? Also, she had a pair of snow white hands. Although her hands had turned a bit rough from the chores she had recently done, Le Yao Yao was not an idiot. Since the first day she had arrived, she could already tell the owner was a person who had lived like a royalty in the past. She was someone that had never done any hard labour before.
So why did the previous owner come here to be a eunuch? There must be some secrets behind this?!
So confusing!
But since Le Yao Yao had no idea, she wasn’t going to waste more brain cells thinking of this.
After all, the ship will straighten when it gets to the harbour. She will probably eventually find out about the identity of the owner.
Her current concern was the competition that will take place in three days!
She must definitely not lose this competition!

What would the 7th Prince do , a sword dance play the zither, or maybe he’s good in magic? I can’t wait to see.
Thanks for this twin update
lol you’ll have to wait to find out!
We’ve swept it under the rug, but who is this little Eunuch originally supposed to be? I think she was sent to be in the palace to protect her from these killings. If she is not a girl she should be okay. So, which family is she from?
lol it’s a secret 😛 but everything is connected. I don’t know if I should tell you guys.
I think she is a spy/mole sent in from an enemy, or to seduce the prince… Bc it is really suspicious how she has flexibility (like a trained dancer), snow white hands and conveniently the best looks ever…
I think trouble will come when he discovers the truth….
So many questions about who she really is! Im still hoping she does break dancing! XD
