âGo ahead and sleep. When Yue Qun comes later, Iâll say that Miss is still sleeping. I think he will be more interested in our Missâ sleeping appearance,â Leng Ruoxue said calmly.
âUh! Iâm scared of you. Make up for me while I sleep,â Empty said helplessly and forced himself to stay awake.
âThatâs more like it.â Leng Ruoxue took out the makeup she had prepared beforehand and began to apply it on Emptyâs face. In just ten minutes, a drop-dead gorgeous beauty was born!
âCan I continue sleeping now?â Lawless asked sleepily with his eyes closed.
âGo to sleep, but be careful!â Leng Ruoxue reminded.
âOkay.â Empty nodded and then fell asleep on the bed!
Leng Ruoxue shook her head helplessly and lowered the curtain for Empty. Soon after, she heard voices coming from outside the room and walked out.
In the yard, the freak guarding the door stopped Yue Qun, who was about to enter and stopped him very politely. âIâm sorry, Young Master Yue. Miss hasnât gotten up yet!â
âWhy isnât she up yet? Is she unwell?â Yue Qunjun asked worriedly.
âMiss has always been weak, so she likes to sleep very much. She probably wonât get up until noon,â the freak said very calmly, the disgust in his black eyes flashing quickly.
âItâs okay. Iâm Xinâerâs fiancé. Iâm just going in to see her,â Yue Qun said, unwilling to give up. He missed Xinâer so much yesterday that he didnât sleep for the entire night! Coming here early in the morning, he would be unwilling if he couldnât see his beloved.
âLittle Yao, let Young Master Yue in!â Leng Ruoxue, who had been hiding at the side and not making a sound, suppressed her smile.
âNo, Miss is still sleeping. I have to be responsible for her reputation,â the freak refused stubbornly.
âIâm your Missâs fiancé. Canât I enter?â Yue Qun said angrily, hating the obstruction of the freak.
âYou said fiancé. Of course not,â the freak said without giving him any face.
âGood, this is great! What a loyal servant! Iâll send someone to ask for your young missâs hand in marriage now!â Yue Qun gritted his teeth in hatred and swore in his heart that when he became Xinâerâs husband, the first person he would deal with would be this servant who dared to contradict him!
âMy young missâs betrothal gift must be ten-thousand-year-old wild ginseng. It wonât do if you donât have it,â the freak reminded loudly as he watched Yue Qun leave angrily.
âHaha, freak, youâre so bad!â Leng Ruoxue walked to the freakâs side and said with a light smile.
âXueâer, I did it all for you. Boohoo⦠Now that Iâve offended Yue Qun, he will definitely take revenge on me. You have to protect me!â The freak took the opportunity to act coquettishly, his bright black eyes full of desire and anticipationâ¦
âDonât worry. He doesnât have time to take revenge on you now. He has to get some wild ginseng!â Leng Ruoxue said in realization.
âThatâs only a matter of time!â The freakâs black eyes released countless careful hearts as he looked at Xueâer lovingly.
âDonât worry! Iâll protect you,â Leng Ruoxue coaxed helplessly.
âThatâs more like it.â The freak nodded with satisfaction and gently pulled Leng Ruoxue into his arms, praying silently in his heart. Xueâer, I hope I can accompany you forever and witness your growthâ¦
Time passed quietlyâ¦
When Empty walked out of the room, he saw Leng Ruoxue and the freak hugging each other on a stone chair by the flowerbed. The two of them looked so warm and sweet that Empty could not bear to disturb them. He stood rooted to the ground, unwilling to break the beautiful and peaceful scene in front of himâ¦
Until Leng Ruoxue and the freak finally discovered his existenceâ¦
âMiss, why didnât you let me know when you came out!â Leng Ruoxue teased while looking at the foolishly standing still.
âI just came out,â Empty said awkwardly. He couldnât help but grumble in his heart. This heartless bad girl actually teased him. Hmph! Would he have done this if he wasnât afraid that someone would be shy? His feet were about to go numb from standing. Boohoo⦠If he had known that he would have to stand for so long, he might as well have floated!
âWhatâs the matter? Did you stand for too long?â Leng Ruoxue said with a naughty smile.
âNo, I think I sprained my ankle.â Empty casually found an excuse.
âOh, then quickly sit down!â Leng Ruoxue didnât expose him and quickly said. Alas, she only knew today that energy bodies could also sprain their feet. She had learned new knowledge again!
âOkay.â Empty was on the stone chair in the air above Leng Ruoxue and the freak, becoming a big lightbulb!
âMiss, I have good news for you,â the freak suddenly said with a mysterious expression.
âWhat good news?â Unparalleled Beautyâs face was full of question marks. Hmph! He didnât believe that this fellow would have any good news!
âYoung Master Yue came while you were sleeping. He said he would send someone to propose marriage to you!â the freak said happily.
âIs this considered good news?â Empty asked angrily with a black face.
âDoesnât it count?â the freak asked, his ugly face full of confusion.
âHow is that possible!â Empty roared furiously.
âAlright, stop arguing. Empty, you should think about it this way. As long as Yue Qun obtains the wild ginseng, our plan will be halfway successful, and you will soon be free,â Leng Ruoxue reminded.
âHmph! Learn well. Xueâer is better at talking than you.â Empty glared at the freak.
âOf course. Xueâer is my woman,â the freak said proudly, his face full of pride.
âLook at how smug you are. Hmph!â Empty turned his head away from the man who almost made him vomit blood from anger!
âXueâer, I find that⦠our young missâs temper is really becoming worse!â the freak said to Leng Ruoxue fearlessly.
âDamn freak, I wonât let you go!â Empty began fighting the freak!
âXueâer, save me! Someone wants to murder your husband!â The freak dodged the attacks and didnât forget to ask for help!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Leng Ruoxue looked at the two men chasing around the garden like children and couldnât help but be speechless!
