I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 4 part 1

Chapter 4 Infiltrate part 1

Chen Hui knew certainly that the other party wouldn’t be able to recognize her. Xiao Tiao had said that she came to Li residence overnight. Moreover, she was womenfolk. Plus, she had been locked in Plum Yard afterwards. The possibility that an outsider man could see her was almost zero.

In addition, before she came out, she wanted to borrow Xiao Tiao’s clothes, but Xiao Tiao’s body was too small. Although, her body was also not tall, but it was about 1.60 meters. If she wore Xiao Tiao’s clothes, it would be like an exhibitionist. She could only change in her most plain clothes. The wound on her head was considered to be on a high place and it had already formed scabs. She had tidied up her front bangs a little, so that she could cover it. Usually, people wouldn’t think that there was a scabby scarred wound under her bangs. The locust tree wasn’t high. The place where she stood before was lush and leafy and was facing the wall. As long as she led him a bit and her attitude was natural, most people wouldn’t doubt her.

Unexpectedly, the tall man in a martial attire backed away with Chen Hui’s approach.

Chen Hui looked puzzled and surprised at this man. Only now did she have the time to look at this person and saw his appearance clearly.

This man looked very young. Maybe, he wasn’t even twenty-year-old. He was at least 1.85 meters. His body was sturdy and his muscles clung under his clothes. He looked strong and powerful. Moreover, his face was full of heroism. His eyebrows were thick and dark and his eyes were shining. If you got closer, the oppressing feeling was enough to let people’s legs go soft.

However, to Chen Hui’s surprise, she actually saw that this strong man’s ears reddened. It wasn’t because he was shy, right?

Chen Hui said in surprise, “Brother, why are you hiding? Wait, you can’t be a thief who had broken in, right?” She put on a panicked expression as if she would scream at any moment.

“I’m not a thief.” That man didn’t discover that the initiative had been snatched by Chen Hui. He quickly opened his mouth to stop her and said, “My name is Gu Tianhe. Originally, I was a soldier of the Left Tengxiang. Seven days ago, I was transferred to work under Lord Li.”

Chen Hui still had an alert expression, “Really?”

“I didn’t lie to you.” Gu Tianhe frowned slightly, “I happened to patrol till here. You…” He glanced once at the wall of Plum Yard.

Chen Hui pretended to not have seen that. She patted her chest and said, “I was frightened. It turned out to be soldier Gu. I thought that it was a thief! Since you are not a thief, then, I will not delay you from doing your job anymore.”

She turned and wanted to leave, but unexpectedly Gu Tianhe raised his voice and asked, “From which department are you?”

Chen Hui stopped, turned and looked at Gu Tianhe. Don’t know from where she took out a handkerchief, covered her face and said shyly, “Soldier Gu…I…I work in the kitchen….If you come to look for me, presumably, grandmother Xu will scold me…” She appeared like a shy girl who Gu Tianhe had hit on and also inadvertently told him that she knew that grandmother Xu was in charge of the kitchen.

Gu Tianhe was silent for a moment. He saw through what the young girl in front of him was thinking. After struggling for a moment, he still asked, “Why do you want to peek inside of Plum Yard?”

Chen Hui looked up at him innocently, “Soldier Gu, I was just a bit curious about that Lady Chen. I heard that master must snatch her at all costs. I think that that Lady Chen must be like a fairy.”

Gu Tianhe frowned slightly and said, “Lady Chen wasn’t snatched by Lord Li. Don’t speak nonsense.”

Chen Hui was slightly stunned. There was no pretense this time. Previously, she had also casted doubt on her judgement. At this moment, she only said “snatch” because she had the meaning to probe. After all, she was from the kitchen and the information she got was not necessarily accurate. It wasn’t surprising that she heard some nonsense. However, she didn’t expect that she got a result from this probing. This soldier Gu said that he came here seven days ago. When she came, he was already in Li residence. Maybe, he truly knew the truth.

“Huh?” Chen Hui said surprised, “Everyone said so. I thought….How did that Lady Chen got here? She is obviously unwilling and charged into a pillar….”

Gu Tianhe casted her a glance. Presumably, he had never seen such a gossipy girl and may feel that this curiosity would kill her. He said, “Don’t ask much about Lord Li’s private affairs, otherwise, you won’t even know how you have died.”

Chen Hui, “…” If it had nothing to do with me, I wouldn’t have inquired.

Gu Tianhe looked like someone who knew the inside story but he was unwilling to speak about it, making Chen Hui uncomfortable that she was about to tweak her ears and scratch her cheeks. She suddenly walked a few steps over. Sure enough, she found out that Gu Tianhe backed away before she approached within two meters of him and his ears quickly turned red. He couldn’t help but shout when she tried to approach again, “Stop!”

Chen Hui pretended to have suffered a grievance and looked at Gu Tianhe, “Soldier Gu, why are you so fierce to me? Did I do something wrong? You said that Lady Chen wasn’t snatched, then, she wasn’t snatched. I won’t say much about it. Why do you have to be like this?”

In any case, Chen Hui had gained experience and knowledge in the modern world after all. She guessed that he may have a little phobia towards the opposite sex. That was why he reacted so fiercely.

Every hair of Gu Tianhe was about to stand up. This kind of feeling was strange. He couldn’t get close to women within five feet. Once he got close, his ears would get red uncontrollably. In the past, there was no women within five feet of him because of his cold appearance. He didn’t except that this time, he met someone who wasn’t afraid of him and who kept approaching him repeatedly.

Gu Tianhe’s expression was still cold but his tone had unconsciously softened, “I was the one who brought Lady Chen into the residence. Her father had gifted her to Lord Li. Lord Li didn’t snatch her.”

Chen Hui took a small step backwards subconsciously. What this soldier Gu said had shocked her. She was afraid of being recognized by him. However, when she thought about it, he had no reaction after the two talked for so long. It could be seen that even the person was brought in by him, he didn’t see the face of the person at that time.

Then, if the things were really like how Gu Tianhe, then the situation was very far from good! Just thinking about it one would know that the original owner’s father sold his daughter for glory. That eunuch Li had also accepted it, but it happened that the original owner didn’t want to follow a eunuch and committed suicide because of that. If it was like what Chen Hui thought previously; that she had been snatched that by that eunuch, then, it would be excusable that she had committed suicide. However, she was gifted by her father. That eunuch may have thought that he would get a gentle and considerate little woman. In the end, the original owner was so fierce and directly played suicide. That was like fiercely slapping one’s face.

Of course, no matter what the reason was, the most pitiful one was the original owner. If it was her who had encountered such a thing, then, she…if there was delicious food, of, of course, she would endure….Anyway, she hoped that the original owner could rest in peace.

“Oh my god, it turned out to be like this! Then, I should tell the others to not speak nonsense. Master is not that kind of person.” Chen Hui continued to cover her face. “Soldier Gu, thank you. Then…then, I’ll leave first?”

She raised her head and looked at Gu Tianhe and then quickly retreated back. She said that she wanted to leave, but there was no sign of her feet moving. It could be seen that she was “reluctant to part”.

Gu Tianhe was very uncomfortable being approached by Chen Hui repeatedly. Hearing her say that, he hurriedly nodded to her, turned and left. He even forgot to ask for her name.

Who let Chen Hui’s performance be so natural? From his point of view, he only prevented a curious girl from courting disaster.

Moreover, while he was leaving, he could still feel that girl’s scorching gaze. As if feeling brambles and thorns on his back, he quickened his pace.
