Chapter 25 Treasure (1)

Chen Hui saw that Li Youde’s expression gradually turned cold as the panic on her face increased.

For Chen Hui, that she took the initiative to get to in front of Li Youde and being ordered to go in front of him, were two different things. On the former, she had the advantage to be allowed to call the shots. She would have the choice to attack or defend. Moreover, she knew very well at that time that he loathed her more than liked her. Thus, he wouldn’t do anything to her. However, the later was different. If he took the initiative to call her over, then wouldn’t it be that he had some other ideas? Otherwise, why would he do such a baffling thing.

“Lord, if this Lady Chen moves here, won’t it be bothersome for lord?” Chen Hui calmed down and said with a dry smile, “Lord treats this lady Chen so well, how can this Lady Chen make lord unhappy? Isn’t that repaying kindness with rebuff…? I’m talking about you Lord Li!

Li Youde was still wearing the white face makeup that he had on when Chen Hui first saw him. His expression sank, making him a bit cold and scary. He slowly opened his mouth and held the tone, which made people feel suffocated, “My waist and legs are not so good these days. It just happens that Lady Chen is good at massaging legs. What, are you not willing to serve me?”

“How, how could this Lady Chen be unwilling?” Chen Hui’s hanging heart eased a bit, but she didn’t dare to relax completely. If it was just letting her massage his legs, she wouldn’t mind. She would consider herself a blind masseuse and he is a customer who gives money. What she was afraid of was a single man and woman living together. In case of thunder and fire…wait, when a man doesn’t have that thing, would he still have sexual desire?

Most of Chen Hui’s attention had been attracted by this academic question that suddenly emerged. She tried forcefully to pull her thoughts back to the right path. Speaking of it, if a man lacked the influence of hormones, it didn’t seem that dangerous to be alone with him…right?

“Heh, willing?” Li Youde’s complexion became even uglier. “Then, what do you meant with that expression of wanting to die just now?”

Chen Hui, “…Lord has misunderstood this Lady Chen. The surprise came too sudden and this Lady Chen wasn’t able to react for a moment. This place is much better than Plum Yard. I like it here. Furthermore, it is clean and this Lady Chen am also not afraid to bother Lady Jiang.”

Hearing Chen Hui mention Lady Jiang, Li Youde’s expression changed slightly. Chen Hui was delighted seeing it. That Lady Jiang didn’t genuinely stand aloof from worldly affairs. If Lady Jiang saw him bring her to Chrysanthemum Yard, she would definitely get angry. How could he still paint a favorable impression? Although, from Chen Hui’s point of view, Li Youde wouldn’t be able to get enough favorable impression at Lady Jiang’s in this life. These two people were people from different worlds. She deliberately mentioned Lady Jiang to remind Li Youde, let him think carefully. Even if he disliked her and wanted to find a way to toss her around, he had to look at what way it was!

However, Chen Hui found out later that she was still happy too early.

Li Youde blanked out for only a moment. Then, he returned to his senses and said with a smile, “It can’t be better that Lady Chen is willing. Go bring your things over after the meal.”

“…Yes, lord.” Chen Hui still had to rely on Li Youde after all. She could only bear with it. If one was under another’s roof, one couldn’t not lower one’s head. If by chance he not only wanted her to lower her head, but also wanted her to do other things. She had to reconsider whether to resist or not again…Whether the resistance could be achieved was beyond her control. At worst, surrender. She wouldn’t lose a piece of meat.

After persuading herself uncomfortably, Chen Hui continued to enjoy her hard-won meal. It was just that when she learned that she was going to move over, her appetite was not as good as before. In addition, considering that overeating was bad for her health when she went hungry for two days, she quickly put down her chopsticks.

“Finished?” Li Youde asked.

He hasn’t moved his chopsticks. This was also one of the reasons why Chen Hui couldn’t eat. It was really uncomfortable when someone was staring at her when eating. Really, when one has the power and money, one could do anything! Wait till she becomes successful one day. She would also make a big table of dishes, stare at Li Youde and let him eat. If not finished, he has to continue eating as a revenge for today!

“Finished,” Chen Hui nodded obediently. Looking at a table full of dishes that was left, she had the urge to wrap the leftovers. In the past, she had always been an active supporter of no leftovers.

“Good, go pack up and have a change of clothes,” Li Youde said.

Chen Hui was dumbstruck. Why change clothes? She was not going to serve him. Should she also change into erotic underwear?!

The next moment, Li Youde smirked and said, “The two shops that you want. I have to take you out to let you get to know them.”

Chen Hui’s eyes lit up and said joyfully, “Thanks lord. Lord, you are the best! This Lady Chen will go clean up now!”

She gave Li Youde a haphazard curtsy and ran out in a hurry.

Li Youde looked at the leftovers on the table and recalled her overcautious appearance when eating in front of him. He suddenly sneered and called Ah Da.

When Chen Hui returned to Plum Yard, Xiao Tiao rushed out. Seeing that it was her, Xiao Tiao’s eyes turned red instantly. She rushed over and said, “Lady, are, are you okay?”

Chen Hui said, “Mm, don’t worry. I have the heavens watching over me. Nothing will happen to me. However, from today onwards I have to move out of Plum Yard.”

Seeing Chen Hui’s depressed expression, Xiao Tiao thought of the worst situation and hurriedly said, “Is, is it that master wants to drive lady away?” She revealed an unwilling-to-part expression, but said, “Actually…actually, it is also a good thing for lady to be able to go back home.” She was used to living a hard life. Consequently, these past days had been nothing to her, but she knew that Lady Chen had been accustomed to living a good life. It was better to go back to the maiden family than suffering like this.

Chen Hui shook her head and said with a sad expression, “It is not driving me away. It is to let me go to Chrysanthemum Yard.”

Xiao Tiao was stunned. Her eyes then slowly widened and she said in surprise, “Congratulations, lady!”

Chen Hui felt that there was a big difference in her and Xiao Tiao’s views on life. Even if she said her thoughts, Xiao Tiao wouldn’t understand…or better said, most people of this era wouldn’t understand…So, she just rubbed Xiao Tiao’s head and said, “Come, help me pack up things.”

Xiao Tiao followed Chen Hui into the main room. Her widened eyes were excited, but soon her expression darkened again. She glanced at Chen Hui secretly as if she wanted to say something, but didn’t dare to say it.
