The afternoon sunlight shone through the windows like rays of gold. Finally, Le Yao Yao began to stir.

  But her first thought was that her brain was going to explode. It wouldn’t stop throbbing.

  “Si…. my head… it hurts!”


  At this moment, there was a crisp knock on the door and Xiao Mu Zi’s anxious voice could be heard. “Xiao Yao Zi, are you awake?”


  “Mmm, Xiao Mu Zi…” Le Yao Yao grumbled.

  Hearing Le Yao Yao’s response, Xiao Mu Zi immediately pushed the door opened and entered. When he noticed Le Yao Yao’s pained expression, he was extremely concerned.

  He hurriedly rushed forward with the bowl of sobering tea in his hands; there was a spiral of steam coming out from it.

  “Now you’re suffering! If you can’t drink, then don’t drink so much! If you don’t want to experience the same thing again, next time, you better be more mindful of your behaviour!”


  Xiao Mu Zi wasted no time as he held Le Yao Yao up in a sitting position as he brought the hot sobering tea in front of her nose.

  The moment Le Yao Yao got a whiff of the horrid smell, Le Yao Yao crinkled her nose and turned her face the other way. She was disgusted.

  “What is this? It smells so gross….”


  “This is sobering tea. This morning, Prince Rui demanded that the moment you wake up, you must drink it. Be good. Hurry and drink it now. It will help soothe your headache….”


  Le Yao Yao didn’t want to, but due to the severity of her headache, she forced herself to gulp down the nasty sobering tea. Unfortunately, a bitter aftertaste remained in between her teeth.

  So now, Le Yao Yao stuck out her pink tongue as she complained, “So disgusting….”


  “Good medicine tastes bitter. Soon, your head will feel much better! Since you’re awake now, wash up. I’ve already prepared the items for you.”


  “Thank you, Xiao Mu Zi….”


  As Le Yao Yao splashed the clear water onto her face, her mind gradually became clearer. Suddenly, a fuzzy scene popped up on her mind. It was kind of blurry but felt very realistic.

  She recalled drinking excessively last night. Afterwards, she felt very hot and began to take off her clothes. Later on, someone helped her too. But she couldn’t remember the rest…


  Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao felt as if she had been shocked by lightning. She dropped the towel in her hand and the water from the bucket splashed onto her face and clothes. Yet, she didn’t seem to notice.

  “Xiao Yao Zi, what’s wrong?”


  “Eh….? Xiao Mu Zi, did something happen last night? Please tell me what happened!”


  If the fuzzy scenes were real, then someone must have already discovered that she was female! But she couldn’t recall who was the one that removed her clothes…


  She just remember she went to Ruyi tavern with Dongfang Bai and Nangong Jun Xi.

  Was it Dongfang Bai or Nangong Jun Xi?!?!

  “Xiao Yao Zi, please calm down. I’m dizzy from all this shaking! Whatever you want to know, I can tell you….”


  It was then that Le Yao Yao realized she was shaking Xiao Mu Zi repeatedly due to her restless state. “Sorry, Xiao Mu Zi. I didn’t do it on purpose. I just… aii…… I just…. Can you tell me what happened last night?”


  “Xiao Yao Zi, you’ve forgotten? Last night, you did something terribly wrong!!!”


  “Really?!?! Very……wrong?!?!”


  Oh God! Has someone discovered she was female?!? Now, Le Yao Yao’s face was as white as paper. It was rather concerning to look at.

  “I just know that last night, Prince Rui carried you back to Ya Feng Ge. Then, he ordered Xiao Gui Zi to prepare sobering tea for you. But Xiao Gui Zi was quickly dismissed afterwards. But much later on, Prince Rui roared like a lion and Xiao Gui Zi almost had a heart attack! So, he went to take a look and he saw….h-he saw……”

  At this point, Xiao Mu Zi began to stuttered as he tried to avoid eye contact. Seeing this, Le Yao Yao began to feel more unstable.

  “What did….he see?”


  Although Le Yao Yao had a rough idea, she still wanted confirmation. Currently, she felt as if someone was squeezing her so tight that she could barely breathe.

  Seeing this, Xiao Mu Zi sighed. Initially, the Prince had told them not to spread any of this to anyone…


  Last night, he came over because he heard Xiao Gui Zi screaming. It turned out…


  Prince Rui was an extremely violent and dangerous person. Yet, Xiao Yao Zi actually did that….to him… most likely, Xiao Yao Zi’s head was in imminent danger!

  So now, Xiao Mu Zi gave Le Yao Yao a very pitiful gaze.

  Based on Xiao Mu Zi’s reaction, Le Yao Yao felt as if her heart had fallen inside a freezer. But Xiao Mu Zi’s next line shocked her. Le Yao Yao’s pupils grew big and she exclaimed, “What did you say?”


  “I said, last night, you vomited all over Prince Rui!”


  Last night, she vomited all over the King of Hell?! Oh God! Her head was destined to be chopped!

  Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao subconsciously placed her hands around her neck; as if she wanted to secure it.

  But Le Yao Yao was curious, so she continued to question Xiao Mu Zi, “What else? Aside from puking all over the Prince, what other wrong things have I done?” She pressed on.

  For example… lying about her gender….

  “What else?! Xiao Yao Zi, the fact you puked all over the Prince is already a huge offense! You still want more?!?! I don’t know what else you did….” Xiao Mu Zi’s eyes widened.

  “So that’s it?”


  “That’s all that I’m aware of.”


  Hearing this, Le Yao Yao felt a breath of relief. Her eyes scanned around the room and she realized that aside from the changed bed sheets, her clothes were still intact. She was still wearing what she had worn yesterday.

  Finally, Le Yao Yao felt like she could relax. But before puking on the King of Hell, what else did she do?

  The more she thought about it, the more anxious she felt. She wanted to ask the King of Hell, but ultimately, she lacked the courage to do so.

  “Xiao Yao Zi, are you ok? Are you afraid of being punished by Prince Rui? Don’t worry. The Prince actually cares quite a lot about you. He probably doesn’t plan to punish you. If he did, he wouldn’t have purposely came in this morning to tell me to prepare the sobering tea for you.”


  “What? The King of Hell purposely told you to prepare it for me?”


  Xiao Mu Zi nodded with certainty. “Yes, so I highly doubt he will punish you if he cared so much.”


  “Oh… is that so?” Hearing this, Le Yao Yao felt a bit conflicted on the inside. The King of Hell really does seem to care about her then…


  Le Yao Yao knew she shouldn’t keep imagining horrible scenarios in her head. It was better if she found out directly from the source itself. But first, she was going to take a shower.

  Last night, she drank too much and her body still had a sickening stench of alcohol. She couldn’t stand it!

  Luckily for her, Mei and Xing weren’t here today. They were sent off to help the King of Hell with some mission. In addition, the King of Hell hadn’t returned from the Palace yet.

  So, Le Yao Yao could take her shower with ease and not worry about getting caught.

  After Le Yao Yao was done showering, she changed into a clean outfit and found out that the King of Hell had returned from the Palace. Now, he was in the Study.

  Le Yao Yao happened to see Xiao Gui Zi preparing tea for the King of Hell. So, she immediately stepped forward to take over.

  “Xiao Gui Zi, I can do it.”
