I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 62 part 1

Chapter 62 Step by step (1)

Li Youde’s expression immediately sank. His facts were almost wormed out by somebody! Fortunately, he got his senses back in time and no one else knew about it.

Seeing Li Youde’s face change, her heart felt sad like there was a feather scratching it.

”Who said that I” what? “Who said that I like Lady Jiang and don’t like you”? “Who said that I like Lady Jiang”? Either of these two answers would make her feel better. If it was the first one, it was a miracle that could set firecrackers on spot.

However, now the best time to worm the facts out of him has passed. Presumably, she wouldn’t get anything out of him anymore today.

“Very well done, Lady Chen!” Li Youde glared at Chen Hui.

Chen Hui lowered her head and said aggrieved, “This Lady Chen knows that this Lady Chen’s mind is too terrible, but this Lady Chen can’t control myself either…”

“Alright,” Li Youde beckoned with his hand, “Go back.”

Chen Hui looked at Li Youde with eager eyes, “But…”

“There are no buts, get out,” Li Youde didn’t let Chen Hui continue.

Chen Hui blanked out for a few seconds. Then, she turned around and went out. When she opened the door, she turned her head and asked, “Lord, this Lady Chen wants to have breakfast with lord tomorrow, can I?”

A pair of watery eyes looked at him expectantly. Li Youde almost surrendered. He moved his gaze away and said, “I have to enter the palace early in the morning tomorrow.”

“Don’t you even have time for breakfast?” Chen Hui asked sadly.

“…No.”

Chen Hui thought for a long time after she returned to her room. She felt that the feeling out of just now was not successful. After all, Li Youde didn’t say anything crucial. She couldn’t figure out his true attitude nor did she get to know how she truly feels.

This feeling was really bad.

But Chen Hui had never been a person who gives up easily. She went to bed very early. Early in the next morning, she got dressed and went to the main room. The door of the main room was open. Xiao Liu told Chen Hui that Li Youde had left long ago.

“Did lord say how long he would be gone this time and when he will come back?” Chen Hui asked.

“Lord said that it would be in about three to five days. He didn’t elaborate,” Xiao Liu said.

Chen Hui was silent for a while. She suddenly looked at Xiao Liu and asked, “Xiao Liu, do you think that lord has an interest in me?”

Xiao Liu was a bit confused, “…What?”

Chen Hui said, “That I have asked you questions, you wouldn’t turn around and tell it to lord, right?”

Xiao Liu quickly shook his head, “I won’t, I won’t!”

Chen Hui said, “That is good. I ask you; do you think that lord treats me well?”

“Naturally, lord treats lady quite well!” Xiao Liu said quickly, “This little one has followed lord for several years and hasn’t seen lord treats someone so well before!”

Chen Hui raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t there still a Lady Jiang?”

Xiao Liu was stupefied for a moment and hurriedly said, “Lady Jiang is different…lord treats Lady Jiang….,” He scratched his head. After looking around and making sure that no one else was listening, he said, “The way lord treats Lady Jiang is like he got an antique vase at home, but to you, my lady, he is totally devoted to pampering you!”

Chen Hui was silent for a while. Then, she asked suddenly, “Xiao Liu, if you have a girl you adore, how would you treat her?”

Xiao Liu was still young after all. After he heard this, he blushed and said awkwardly, “If this little one has a girl this little one adores, this little one will probably treat her well, give her delicious food, take her to fun places and buy her beautiful clothes…”

“Thinking of love at such a young age, really capable!” Chen Hui gave Xiao Liu the thumbs up.

Xiao Liu’s whole person felt not good. Wasn’t it you, Lady Chen, who let me say it?!

Chen Hui ignored him and walked away full of thoughts. She estimated that it was useless to ask the people of Chrysanthemum Yard. They seemed to have long acknowledged that Li Youde was quite unusual to her, otherwise, they wouldn’t have insisted on making her go in when he fell in the bathroom.

However, there could be mistakes in the judgements of others. Presumably, in the eyes of others, she is also ‘deeply in love’ with their lord. However, she guessed that Li Youde, the involved party, didn’t believe it.

When the involved party was not there, even if Chen Hui wanted to do another experiment, there was no one to experiment on. In addition to being bored in the residence, she turned her head, called Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu and Xiao Tiao and went to play out again. Of course, it would take her a while before she had forgotten what had happened at Tanmen Temple and dare to go out of the capital again.

She played like this for three or five days. This day, Li Youde returned before Chen Hui came back. When she came home, her eyes lit up when she saw the familiar figure in the main room. She threw the things she bought when shopping in Xiao Wu’s arms and walked to the main room.

The moment she entered, she discovered that someone was using the silk cloth ruler to help Li Youde measure his body. Li Youde was facing the door with his back at this moment.

The corners of Chen Hui’s mouth turned upward and she walked over with light steps. She patted the tailor on the shoulder. The person turned. It was auntie Sun who Chen Hui was already familiar with. She mouthed for aunt Sun to shush. She took the silk cloth ruler and gently pressed it on Li Youde’s shoulder. As if to flatten the creases on his shoulders, she gently and slowly stroked his left shoulder to his right shoulder and then moved down from the right shoulder.

The movements on his shoulder suddenly became soft and presumptuous. Li Youde didn’t care at first until the person behind him came in front of him and came face-to-face with him. He stepped back, frowned slightly in surprise and asked, “Why is it you?”

Chen Hui lowered her eyes and said with a pleasant tone, “This matter should originally be done by this Lady Chen.” At this moment, she was looking serious and with a business-like manner, “Lord, don’t move, raise your hand.”

Li Youde gave aunt Sun a fierce look. This simple and honest married woman rubbed her hands embarrassed, but she couldn’t say anything.

“Lord, what are you waiting for?” Chen Hui glared once at him. She raised her hand and pressed the silk cloth ruler on his chest. She slowly rubbed it with her eyes looking straight in front of her, “This set of clothes on you is not new anymore. So, you should get a new set.”

Li Youde has been stroked softly like a caress of a lover’s whisper and got goosebumps. He abruptly grabbed Chen Hui’s hand and said with a stern face, “What are you doing?!”

“This Lady Chen is helping lord measure your measurements,” Chen Hui said with an innocent face.

“Do you know how to?” Li Youde raised his voice suddenly. Presumably, he got angry by Chen Hui’s shamelessness.

Chen Hui smiled, “Lord, don’t worry. This Lady Chen won’t mess around. If you don’t believe this Lady Chen, you can ask aunt Sun.

Li Youde didn’t ask. He lifted his chin slightly, pointed at the door and said, “Get out.”

“Lord, let this Lady Chen help you, please!” Chen Hui didn’t move, “This Lady Chen really has good skills…You also witnessed it, haven’t you?” She was referring to the bras made for Consort De of course.

Li Youde stared coldly at Chen Hui and smiled, “Not leaving, right? Don’t regret it later!”

Chen Hui hesitated for a moment because of what he said, but a very able person was bold. She said aggrievedly, “This Lady Chen only wants to help lord…”

“Aunt Sun, go out,” Li Youde ordered, “Close the door.”

After aunt Sun went out, only Li Youde and Chen were left in the room. The latter was full of fighting spirits. She had to try and get out something this time!
