The Eunuch is Pregnant - Chapter 149

Chapter 149

Chapter 149: The horse carriage

The moment Dongfang Bai said this, everyone froze in the room .

Nangong Jun Xi followed Dongfang Bai’s eyes and saw that it led to Le Yao Yao . Suddenly, his peach blossom eyes flickered and shock could be seen .

“Bai, who is that certain someone?”

Although deep down, he already knew the answer, Nangong Jun Xi was in denial and still had to ask .

Could Bai also… .

No way?! Oh God!?

What type of charm does this damn servant have?!

Not only has he became a victim, his senior brother and Bai have fallen as well…

Thinking of this, Nangong Jun Xi felt hopeless . But even more so, frightened .

After all, the little eunuch was still having a cold battle with his senior brother . As for him, Le Yao Yao had always treated him rather badly . Aside from arguing, they didn’t have much conversation .

Whereas, towards Bai, Le Yao Yao was always perky and smiley .

Could it be that their feelings towards each other were mutual?

Thinking of this, Nangong Jun Xi furrowed his handsome brows . He began to stare at Le Yao Yao with bitterness and resentment .

As for Le Yao Yao, she didn’t know what Nangong Jun Xi’s problem was .

Why is he acting like he’s her husband and she’s his cheating wife?! What the heck?! He’s so jealous this early in the morning!? What a loser!

Le Yao Yao looked the other way because she didn’t want to see Nangong Jun Xi’s outrageous face . Instead, she much preferred Dongfang Bai’s warm and scholarly face .

Hoho! Brother Bai is purposely coming to watch her show!

How sweet of him!

The more Le Yao Yao thought about it, the warmer she felt .

Hence, she gave Dongfang Bai a brilliant smile .

Seeing this, Dongfang Bai deepened his smile .

So the two of them were smiling at each other like no one else were around . They had no idea that a pair of long narrow pupils had taken in all of this .

Underneath the table, his five fingers began to tighten as he jabbed them into his palms… .

After breakfast, the horse carriage was ready . So, the King of Hell and his crew departed from the entrance .

Only rich nobles such as the King of Hell would ever have a chance to sit on such a magnificent horse carriage .

While Le Yao Yao was sighing and envying the wealthy, the three men had already leaped onto the carriage .

Since she was a lowly eunuch, she didn’t have the qualifications to sit on the carriage . She could only walk and follow from the outside .

So, after the King of Hell, Nangong Jun Xi, and Dongfang Bai had entered the carriage, Le Yao Yao could only accept her misfortunes as determined by fate . She prepared her heart and mind to walk to the palace .

Her only wish was that the walk wouldn’t be too long . Or else, her short legs will be sore and tired .

Especially because she had probably overworked herself recently . These days, she always wanted to take naps and was always feeling fatigued .

After the Dowager Empress’s birthday celebration, she must return to the residence and sleep more to recuperate .

While Le Yao Yao was thinking to herself, suddenly, a pair of slender, white hands gently lifted the door curtain .

Along with it was Dongfang Bai’s mellow and rich voice .

“Brother Yao, you’re not getting on?”

“Eh?!”

Getting on?! She could sit on the carriage?

“Brother Yao, hurry and get on . It is quite a distance from the palace . Do you plan to walk there? We have room on the carriage . ”

But, Le Yao Yao was silently observing the King of Hell’s expression .

The King of Hell was sitting inside with a book in his hand . He didn’t have any reaction to Dongfang Bai’s suggestion .

No reaction? That means, ok?!

Deep down, Le Yao Yao beamed .

After all, she wasn’t stupid . If she could sit on the horse carriage, obviously she wouldn’t say no! Only a fool would walk to the palace if they had the option to get a ride!

“Alright . ”

Then, Le Yao Yao began to scramble onto the horse carriage . After all, she had short legs and arms . The damn horse carriage was so high! Getting on was not an easy task for someone like her .

But just as she was struggling, Dongfang Bai reached out his hand to help her .

It was one attractive hand .

“Come, I’ll pull you up . ”

“Mm . ”

Le Yao Yao nodded and trustingly took Dongfang Bai’s hand .

On the contrary, when Dongfang Bai held onto Le Yao Yao’s soft and delicate hands, his pupils couldn’t help but flicker .

Although his face still wore his smile, his heart was quivering .

What a tiny pair of hands!

They’re so soft and tiny… do these hands really belong to a man?

Dongfang Bai felt very uneasy…

Of course, Le Yao Yao had no idea what was on Dongfang Bai’s mind . With his help, she quickly climbed onto the horse carriage as she scanned around her surroundings .

Inside, the carriage was very spacious .

There was an actual black sandalwood table at the very back . On top of it were a few book, ink and brushes .

Most likely, the King of Hell was also working during the times he headed to the Imperial court .

Aside from that table, there was another small table for food and snacks .

On top of it were tea cups, pastries, and some fruits… .

As expected, the nobles truly knew how to enjoy life .

This was practically a luxurious small room .

Currently, the King of Hell and the 7th Prince were sitting on one side . Across from them was Dongfang Bai .

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao naturally went to sit next to Dongfang Bai .

After everyone was seated, the horse carriage slowly began to proceed towards its destination .

From the moment Le Yao Yao entered the carriage, the King of Hell never looked at her once . He was silently reading his book; as if the book was very intriguing and he couldn’t part from it .

As for Nangong Jun Xi, he yawned and then stared out the window to look at the scenery with a bored expression .

While Le Yao Yao was quietly observing the two men in front of her, Dongfang Bai’s rich voice suddenly entered her ears .

“Brother Yao, are you hungry? Have some pastries!”

“Eh, no it’s okay… . ”

Le Yao Yao had to say no . After all, amongst the four of them, her position was the lowest . If the nobles weren’t eating, how could she eat? That would be unacceptable!

“It’s fine . Brother Yao, you don’t need to follow the rules so strictly . ”

“Brother Bai, it’s fine…really…”

Originally, Le Yao Yao was going to keep refusing . But when she saw the delicious looking pastries in front of her face, she couldn’t help but gulp down her saliva .

It was osmanthus cake!

Her favourite!

Pastries were the things she loved to eat the most! Although it had only been an hour since she ate two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge, her stomach was already empty and growling!

The *gulu gulu* sound wouldn’t stop coming out from her stomach . Immediately, Le Yao Yao’s face crumpled . Then, she awkwardly laughed . She didn’t want to make her stomach suffer .

So, Le Yao Yao decided not to reject Dongfang Bai’s kind intentions and instantly picked up a piece of the osmanthus cake . She took a huge bite and munched on it .

“Mm! It’s so yummy!” Le Yao Yao chirped .

“Brother Bai, you should try some! It’s delicious!”

“No thanks, I don’t like sweet things . ”

“Really?! How about the 7th Prince and Prince Rui?! Have a piece! It’s really great!”

Since she was eating their food, Le Yao Yao felt the need to share .

However, Nangong Jun Xi crinkled his brows and gave her a look of disgust . “This Prince does not like sweet things . ”

“Eh…?”

You don’t have to eat if you don’t want to! But what’s with your disgusted expression?! You picky eater! Despicable!

“And there’s no need to ask senior brother to eat . Senior brother doesn’t like sweet things either!”
