Seeing this, Le Yao Yao was so frightened that her face turned white. She instantly shut her eyes because she thought Leng Jun Yu was going to slap her.
But the anticipated pain never occurred. Instead, she heard something heavy dropping in into the water. There was a huge splash.
Le Yao Yao was curious and secretly took a peek. She realized Prince Rui didn't plan to hit her. He had shoved all the editable food out of the pavilion and into the lake.
She saw layers upon layers of ripples and her eyes flickered as she recalled what the King of Hell had just said. She was bewildered.
How did he know what she was thinking? Was he a roundworm in her stomach? He could read her thoughts?
While Le Yao Yao was being miserable, she didn't realized her face was as obvious as a piece of paper. All her thoughts could be read on her face. Even though she didn't say a word, Leng Jun Yu knew exactly what she was thinking.
Leng Jun Yu suddenly had an urge to twist "his" delicate neck off.
This wrenched servant couldn't tell good from evil."He" deserved to starve!
Then again, wasn't he acting a bit too weirdly!?
When did he ever cared about a servant starving or not? If it were the old him, he wouldn't even blink twice if a servant starved and died in front of him.
Why was this little eunuch an exception?
Currently, Leng Jun Yu felt troubled and confused.
As a result, the atmosphere in the pavilion became very awkward. Neither of them said a word to break the silence.
But even though the two of them suppressed their mouths, Le Yao Yao's empty stomach couldn't be suppressed.
"Gu lu gu lu"....
Le Yao Yao's cheeks flushed. She wanted to hide inside a hole.
"Gu lu gu lu"....
The corner of Leng Jun Yu's mouth twitched. His intense glare remained focused on Le Yao Yao's face.
"Gu lu gu lu"....
By now, Le Yao Yao couldn't duck any lower. Her head was so low, it was nearly touching her chest.
Her lips were about to move; it looked like she wanted to say something. But Leng Jun Yu's thin, cold voice echoed from above.
"Yue."
"Your subordinate is here."
Following Leng Jun Yu's voice, a ghost-like black shadow silently appeared outside of the pavilion. He immediately got down on one knee and respectfully waited for his master's instructions.
Yue was one of the secret agents that Leng Jun Yue had trained. He had pledged to only remain loyal to him; even the Emperor would have to step aside! (in terms of loyalty)
Prince Rui had raised a few secret agents ever since he was young. They were always instructed to take on dangerous jobs or tasks that had to remain unseen.
Regardless of what their master wanted them to do, they would do it without a word of complaint; be it assassinating others or setting places on fire. Even if their master wanted them to commit suicide, they would follow his wishes. After all, their lives were saved by their master. So their lives belonged to their master.
Since they were secret agents, emotions were forbidden.
So, Yue always had a frozen expression all year round. Even if the sky fell down, his expression would remain the same.
But when Yue heard his order, his frozen expression showed signs of cracking.
(end of Ch. 28 raws)
"Go cook a bowl of noodles and bring it here!"
Leng Jun Yu remained expressionless. His order was simple and easy to understand, but to Yue, it was like thunder rolls entering his ears.
Yue was so shocked that he raised his head up to look at his master. He had to make sure his master wasn't joking.
When Yue confirmed that his master was serious, his mouth twitched.
He had been with his master for over a decade, and his master had always ordered him to commit terrible crimes that couldn't be seen in the light.
This was the first time he had been ordered to cook a bowl of noodles.
Although Yue was conflicted, he lightly nodded and instantly lifted the extremity of his foot. Then, just as he had appeared, he noiselessly disappeared into the night.
In less the time it took to burn half an incense, a bowl of savory noodles rapidly appeared in front of Le Yao Yao's eyes. There was an egg, vegetables, and even a huge drumstick on top of the noodles!
Seeing this mouth watering sight in front of her, Le Yao Yao's eyes were gleaming. She looked like she was drooling and wanted to absorb a transparent liquid of some sort.
Her current expression was like a gluttonous kitten. All that was missing were the words "I want to eat" on her face.
Seeing this, Leng Jun Yu's originally merciless face softened a little.
Even he had no idea his mood was dependent on the little eunuch's expressions..
But although Leng Jun Yu didn't notice, someone else did.
Seeing his master's softened expression on his ridiculously handsome face caused Yue to be baffled.
Yue became very curious and took a quick glimpse at the little eunuch. Then, he knitted his dark brows as he thought to himself,
"Could master be interested in the little eunuch...?"
Thinking of this, Yue was flabbergasted.
But this was the master's choice. As a secret agent, he will never be able to interfere.
After Yue quickly placed down the bowl of noodles, he took a few steps back and in a blink of an eye, he was gone. He moved as fast as lightning and made it impossible for others to see. That was sufficient to show his martial arts abilities!
Initially, Le Yao Yao had placed all her concentration on the bowl of noodles, but after witnessing Yue's mysterious flying abilities, she was pleasantly surprised!
Earlier, she didn't see how Yue appeared. But this time, she noticed how he left.
Could this be the legendary flying abilities?
It was too pro!
If she had such abilities, she wouldn't need to stress about how to escape!?
Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao had an admiration look in her eyes as she stared towards the direction of where Yue had disappeared to.
But she failed to notice the person's changed expression next to hers. Originally, Leng Jun Yu had warmed up a bit, but now, it was back to freezing.
This wrenched servant. What type of look was "he" showing?
When "he" looked at him, he was always scared shitless."He" had never shown any signs of adoration towards him. As a Prince, he couldn't even compare to a secret agent?!
