So now, Leng Jun Yu leaned back against his seat and looked like he was ready to listen to a story.

  Le Yao Yao felt her scalp turning numb.

  After all, she had no memories of the previous body owner. Xiao Mu Zi had told her she came from a poor background. That was why she had to sell herself and become a eunuch…but Xiao Mu Zi had no idea which family she came from either.

  Originally, Le Yao Yao believed what Xiao Mu Zi told her. But after carefully examining her soft white hands and smooth eggshell skin, it was obvious that her body had never gone through hard labour. She was definitely not from a poor background.

  So, Le Yao Yao concluded that Xiao Mu Zi had created a story in his mind.

  Anyhow, at this moment, Le Yao Yao felt extremely anxious. Although Leng Jun Yu appeared normal on the outside, she was getting a very strange vibe from him. It was like he had sensed something.

  But how was that possible? Ever since she had arrived, she was so careful! Aside from Dongfang Bai, no one else know she’s female!

  Based on Dongfang Bai’s personality, he wouldn’t tell others about her identity.

  So why was the King of Hell acting so odd? Could it be that she’s overthinking because she has a guilty conscience?

  Le Yao Yao hoped so. She kept trying to give herself therapy to calm her erratic heart.

  After calming herself down, Le Yao Yao revealed a smile she personally believed was completely flawless. “Actually, there’s not much to say about my family. I just came from an average poor family.”


  “Oh? According to what you’ve said in the past, your body was very weak when you were little? That’s why your parents sold everything to provide treatment to cure your illness?”


  “Eh…”


  Hearing this, Le Yao Yao’s face froze. She recalled once she had made up some ridiculous lie because Leng Jun Yu had asked. If he hadn’t reminded her, she would’ve totally forgotten.

  “Oh yeah…yeah……haha…Yu, your memory is quite good…”


  By now, Le Yao Yao’s sweat was sticking onto her back. She was so nervous! Le Yao Yao had no idea her eyes were darting back and forth like a guilty thief. In addition, her smile was stiff.

  However, Leng Jun Yu noticed everything. Now, he deepened his gaze even more.

  “I recall you mentioning you have some siblings at home. I wonder how your siblings look? Do you guys look similar?”


  “Uh…… mmm…… I-I have five siblings in total! I’m #2! We all look relatively similar.”


  The more Leng Jun Yu asked, the more guilty Le Yao Yao felt. She was just making shit up.

  The King of Hell wouldn’t personally go get someone to investigate her background, right? She could say whatever she wants.

  Currently, her eyes were on the King of Hell’s face. She was afraid he wouldn’t believe her. But after observing for a long time, Leng Jun Yu’s face remained the same. So, Le Yao Yao assumed he trusted her words.

  Seeing this, Le Yao Yao felt relieved and decided to use her sleeve to wipe the sweat off her forehead. Unexpectedly, someone was faster than her.

  Leng Jun Yu reached his big palm over and touched her face. He lightly wiped away her sweat with his thumb.

  Then, a low and raspy voice entered her ears, “Are you very hot? Why are you sweating so much?”


  “Umm…… uh…… Yes. I-I’m very h-hot!! Too hot! Haha…”


  How could she not sweat in front of such a smart man??

  Le Yao Yao felt sticky everywhere. She wanted to take a bath to cool down.

  Suddenly, Leng Jun Yu commented, “You must be tired. Go get some rest now.”


  “Oh! Thanks! Get some rest too, Yu!”


  Le Yao Yao instantly got up from Leng Jun Yu’s thigh and ran back into her room. She didn’t once turn around because she was afraid Prince Rui would discover something.

  After Le Yao Yao got back to her room, she quickly grabbed her clothes and headed to the back courtyard to take a bath.

  Right now, Mei and Xing were not at Ya Feng Ge. The King of Hell was still in Bamboo Gardens. He should still be doing some work before returning back. So, she should be safe if she bathe at this time.

  Aside from the awkward accident she had with Mei and Xing that one time, she never had any other incidents for the last two months.

  In addition, the King of Hell wouldn’t be around this area.

  In the back courtyard, there was a simple place to take a shower or bath. Nowadays, it was Le Yao Yao’s personal bath spot.

  Le Yao Yao hung her clothes inside and went to the well to fill two big buckets of water.

  Just as she was about to shut the door, a huge hand appeared out of nowhere and stopped her action.

  “Eh!?”


  When Le Yao Yao realized who it was, she felt as if she was shocked by lightning.

  “P-Prince Rui… why are you here!?”


  Isn’t this an area he never steps in?

  This place was so remote. Plus, it was nighttime. No one should be here at this time.

  “We have specialized public bathhouses in this residence. Why are you using this place instead?”


  “Uh….”


  Le Yao Yao wasn’t sure how she should respond. Prince Rui was correct. There were specific facilities that they were supposed to go to for baths. Not only were the public bathhouses clean, they also provided hot water!

  The only bad thing about it was that there were too many people.

  Since A/C hasn’t been invented yet, many servants cannot sleep from the heat. So, there were always people taking baths to cool down.

  In the past, before Le Yao Yao had moved into Ya Feng Ge, she always had to worry about this issue. But ever since moving here, she had this place to herself.

  Currently, Leng Jun Yu was eyeing her very covetously. He was waiting for her response. Le Yao Yao squeaked, “I don’t like going to places where there are too many people.”


  “Oh? Why not?”


  Leng Jun Yu continued to probe.

  “Uh…”


  Le Yao Yao had no idea why Leng Jun Yu had become so nosy all of a sudden. She was stressed and her scalp was turning numb again.

  It was as if her smooth tongue had been stolen by a cat. She couldn’t come up with a reason.

  But Prince Rui didn’t force her to respond. Instead, he turned to the two big buckets of water and smiled.

  “This is perfect. This Prince has not bathe either. How about we bathe together?”


  “What!? Bathe t-together!?!?!” stammered Le Yao Yao.

  Le Yao Yao felt as if her brain was melting into a puddle. Before she could react, Leng Jun Yu had untied his waist belt and thrown his black robe aside. All he had left were his thin inner garments. His broad and firm chest was revealed.

  At this moment, the moon was round and bright. It was like a young girl’s face. Without a lantern, everything could still be seen very clearly.

  Not to mention that Le Yao Yao had a lantern hanging on the side.

  In no time, Leng Jun Yu had taken off everything. He only had his pants left.

  Then, Le Yao Yao could hear the splash of water. Prince Rui had picked up one of the buckets and poured it over his head.

  Instantly, water splashed everywhere. Since Le Yao Yao was standing so close to Leng Jun Yu, a lot of the water got on her as well.

  Le Yao Yao yelped but she couldn’t avoid it.

  Originally, she thought it was an accident. But when Le Yao Yao lifted her eyes and gazed into Leng Jun Yu’s fiery pupils, she knew it was intentional.

  “Xiao Tu Zi, why are you still standing there? Come, let’s take a bath together. This Prince can help you rub your back!”


  “N-no, it’s okay! Yu, you wash first. I-I’ll wash later. It will be too troublesome…”


  Le Yao Yao felt as if she was going to explode.

  Rub her back?

  Oh God! Just kill her!

  “It’s not troublesome. Didn’t you say you were tired? Perfect. This Prince will help you rub your back and help you get rid of stress.”


  If it were anyone else, they would probably die from joy. After all, the King of Hell was Prince Rui of the Heaven Yuan dynasty! He was only below one person and above ten thousand. Only people would serve him. Who would ever have the luxury of getting served by him?

  But Le Yao Yao was a fake eunuch. If the King of Hell saw her naked, that means her female identity will be revealed!

  She knows the King of Hell likes her. But she can’t guarantee that he will be able to accept her for being a woman.

  After all, like and love was different. She wasn’t sure how deeply the King of Hell ‘s feelings were. Would he be able to forgive her for hiding all this?

  Le Yao Yao lacked confidence. She was afraid. She truly cherishes the times they have spent together. But her identity was like a thorn in her heart. She was scared that the moment the King of Hell found out, he’ll never want to see her again.

  She was afraid to lose him….

  So, Le Yao Yao bounced away like a spring. Leng Jun Yu raised his brows.

  “Um…… Prince Rui, servant forgot he had something urgent he needs to attend to. You wash first!”


  Then, Le Yao Yao ran as if a ghost was behind her.

  Leng Jun Yu watched as the little figure disappeared from his line of vision. He pursed his red lips and his eyes flickered. Then, he spoke under his breath, “How long do you plan to hide this for?”
