The Eunuch is Pregnant

Chapter 177: The riddle

The corner of Le Yao Yao’s mouth curved upwards. Her eyes were on Leng Jun Yu.

However, Leng Jun Yu was silent as usual. In addition, he remained motionless. If others didn’t pay attention, they might’ve assumed he was a carved sculpture.

Leng Jun Yu sensed Le Yao Yao’s eyes on him, and he raised his cold pupils. Now, they were making eye contact with each other.

The moment Le Yao Yao noticed this, her heart began to accelerate at a very face pace.

Why was the King of Hell giving her such an intense look?!

But Le Yao Yao turned away and looked at Nangong Jun Xi instead. “So, have you figured it out? If not, I’m going to reveal the answer!”

“Humph! Who says I can’t figure it out? It is such a simple question. This Prince is not an idiot!”

“It must be the pig!” Nangong Jun Xi continued.

Hearing the certainty in Nangong Jun Xi’s voice, Le Yao Yao smiled and coolly said, “That’s what the donkey thought!”

“Eh…?” Nangong Jun Xi’s face crumpled and he instantly replied, “No. I meant to say, donkey!”

“That’s what the donkey said!”

After thinking deeper into it, Nangong Jun Xi finally realized something and his peach blossom eyes popped out.

“You damn servant! Aren’t you just playing with words?”

“Haha. Now you’ve figured it out? I thought you were smart!”

Seeing how frustrated Nangong Jun Xi was, Le Yao Yao smiled even brighter.

Dongfang Bai lightly shook his head at Le Yao Yao, ‘You are so naughty!”

Even Leng Jun Yu couldn’t help but smile at how Le Yao Yao fooled Nangong Jun Xi. So now, he had a tiny smirk on his face. The corner of his mouth was curved a teeny bit upwards.

Although it was a very slight change, Nian Sulan noticed it. She was in shock.

After all, ever since she had returned, she had never seen Leng Jun Yu smile. Initially, she thought it was just his personality so she didn’t mind. But now, Leng Jun Yu was actually smiling because of the eunuch!

Nian Sulan stared at Le Yao Yao.

Le Yao Yao could feel someone staring at her, so she looked around. But Nian Sulan’s eyes were already back on Leng Jun Yu.

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao was confused.

Was she imagining things?

But she didn’t think any more of it. Once again, she turned to the furious Nangong Jun Xi.

Nangong Jun Xi was acting like an angry child. His handsome face was red. It was actually kind of cute!

“Hehe. 7th Prince, I know you’re smart. Why don’t we try another riddle to see if you can figure it out?”

“Humph! Go ahead! You little servant! Your mind is always filled with all these strange ideas and thoughts!”

Nangong Jun Xi wasn’t actually mad. In fact, he was quite happy.

Because now, “his” attention was no longer on senior brother or Bai. Instead, Le Yao Yao was giving him all the attention.

“It grows to the waist and has hair and skin. It’s around five to six inches, and the offsprings are inside. What do you think it is?”

Le Yao Yao’s voice was crispy clear on this enchanting night.

After she spoke, the audience didn’t say a word.

Everyone looked extremely embarrassed. It seemed as if they all knew the answer but didn’t feel comfortable sharing it.

Nian Sulan’s face was pink and she had her head lowered.

Even Leng Jun Yu’s mouth was twitching. He couldn’t believe Le Yao Yao would say something like this.

As for Dongfang Bai, he was even more shocked. He was the only one who knew Le Yao Yao was female, so he couldn’t believe that she would have the courage to say something like this in public. As a result, his face reddened.

Nangong Jun Xi noticed Le Yao Yao kind of looked at his xx. He instantly flipped.

“You servant! There’s a lady here! How could you think of such an inappropriate riddle!?”

“Oh? 7th Prince, what’s wrong with my riddle? My riddle is very normal. You’re probably saying this because you can’t figure it out!”

Le Yao Yao knew Nangong Jun Xi must be thinking dirty, so she began to giggle.

But when she glanced around the boat, she noticed all their red faces.

Wow! So everyone is thinking dirty!!!

They are blushing? Aww, so innocent!

So now, Le Yao Yao blinked her lovely pupils and revealed a pitiful look on her face. She shook her head and pretended to be disappointed, “Well, if no one can figure it out, I guess I must reveal the answer….”

Nangong Jun Xi could see that Nian Sulan was afraid of Le Yao Yao stating the answer, her face was turning redder and redder. It wasn’t a big deal for the guys, but NIan Sulan was a lady!

So, Nangong Jun Xi decided to stop Le Yao Yao. But he was a step too late.

“What?! What did you say?”

Nangong Jun Xi wasn’t the only one who was stunned. Everyone else also froze.

“The answer is corn! I can’t believe you couldn’t figure out such a simple riddle! Haha…”

“What were you guys thinking of?”

“Eh….!!?!” The audience was speechless. Because, Le Yao Yao was correct. They were just thinking dirty.

Dongfang Bai blushed even harder. As for Leng Jun Yu, his mouth remained expressionless. But if one paid closer attention, they would notice a light mouth twitch.

Nangong Jun Xi placed his hand on his nose. He was very embarrassed. But he also had to argue, “It’s not our fault! No one had ever heard of your riddle before! Plus, earlier, you were staring at me in such a perverted way. Oh! I get it! You were purposely trying to mislead me!”

Le Yao Yao smiled brilliantly. “Haha! 7th Prince, you’re smart for once!”

“Eh……”

—–

The moon was inclining towards the west. It was getting later. The loud noises around the West Lake had decreased substantially. Now, the stalls were beginning to tidy up.

Currently, it was approximately midnight to 2am of modern time.

Le Yao Yao looked up at the sky and couldn’t help but cover her mouth to yawn. She was sleepy.

Seeing this, Leng Jun Yu stood up and declared, “It’s late. Let’s return.”

“Ah! It’s very late. I’m tired too.” Nangong Jun Xi also yawned as he stood up and began stretching his lazy waist.

Everyone else also stood up.

Le Yao Yao imagined herself sleeping on her tiny bed and meeting the God of Dreams. It was a great feeling so she smiled. But her happiness only lasted for a second before Nian Sulan leaned over to the King of Hell and pouted like a little girl, “Cousin Yu, it’s very late. You must take me home!”

Would the King of Hell agree to her wish?
