I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 87 part 2

Chapter 87 Settle the account (2)

Chen Hui looked at Li Youde and suddenly asked after a moment, “Then, why did lord endanger yourself? Could it be that it wasn’t for this Lady Chen?”

Li Youde couldn’t avoid from being entangled with Chen Hui’s gaze. Her pair of clear eyes were full of anticipation at this moment.

Should he smash that expectation and make her eyes darken or cater to her?

He had endangered himself, but was it truly for her?

Li Youde didn’t speak for a long time, but Chen Hui didn’t give up. She just looked stubbornly at him and waited for an answer. In fact, with his temperament, that he didn’t say anything was already a kind of agreeing. However, she still didn’t think that it was enough. Perhaps, there was also the element of anger in it. In the past, she had asked if he liked her, but he laughed at her. This time, if he didn’t say it sincerely, she wouldn’t talk about liking him anymore. She also wants face too! That she didn’t want it before was before. Now, the situation was different. She wants it!

“The water is here…,” Ah Da’s voice suddenly came from the outside and he ran in after speaking.

Just when Chen Hui was wondering how Ah Da was so not tactful, she saw that there was a person who followed behind him…It was princess Yatai! That Ah Da deliberately spoke in such a loud voice was to remind them of princess Yatai’s arrival!

A trace of disappointment flashed through princess Yatai’s eyes when she saw that Li Youde was already awake. There was also a bit of surprise when she saw Chen Hui.

“Lady Chen, why didn’t you keep deputy general Chu company and is here instead?” Princess Yatai’s gaze turned suspiciously between her and Li Youde.

Chen Hui suddenly wiped her eyes, stepped back and looked at Li Youde. She said, “Lord Li, you should give up! When I am alive, I am deputy general Chu’s and when dead I am his ghost. I won’t follow you!”

Li Youde’s face darkened. What nonsense was she talking about?!

Princess Yatai got the meaning from Chen Hui’s words. She looked at Li Youde in surprise, “Lord Li, are you not a eunuch? What’s the use of having a woman?”

Li Youde’s face darkened even more.

Before Li Youde could become angry, Chen Hui hurriedly pulled princess Yatai and said, “Master Yatai, let’s go back!”

She turned her head glared at Li Youde and said, “Lord Li, you don’t have to say anything. It’s useless!” Shut up, don’t let princess Yatai have suspicions!

Li Youde gritted his teeth viciously without saying a word.

Seeing the humiliating and resentful look on Chen Hui’s face, princess Yatai didn’t say anything in the end and let Chen Hui drag her out.

“Lady Chen, do you and deputy general Chu need my help?” Princess Yatai said a bit worried after she sent Chen Hui to deputy general Chu’s tent.

Chen Hui said, “Thanking master Yatai, but there is no need. Deputy general Chu is also not someone easy to deal with. No matter how powerful Lord Li is, openly snatching the woman of another is not justifiable. He just wants me to voluntarily give in, but I won’t.”

Princess Yatai looked at Chen Hui with admiration and said, “I have not seen such a resolute and unyielding woman in a long time. I wish you and deputy general Chu to live long and happily together.”

“Thanking princess Yatai,” Chen Hui thanked. When princess Yatai left, she opened the curtain of the tent and walked inside.

Deputy general Chu had almost sobered up at this time. He sat upright on the bed. Seeing that Chen Hui had come in, he immediately said, “Lady Chen, I’m easy to deal with.”

Chen Hui was stunned by deputy general Chu’s incomprehensible words. Then, she recalled how she had refuted princess Yatai previously and realized that he was showing that he didn’t dare to go head-on with Li Youde and was admitting to being timid.

“Oh,” Chen Hui replied. She found a corner and sat there with her thoughts.

Deputy general Chu was very uncomfortable being in the same room with Chen Hui. He was simply restless and said, “Since princess Yatai is not here anyway, why doesn’t Lady Chen go look for Lord Li?”

“Don’t want to,” Chen Hui simply refused.

Chen Hui thought that Li Youde would be a bit honest this time. After all, although he didn’t say anything, his body was very honest. Didn’t he risk himself because of her? But he happened to not be honest. Then, she is not happy. Wait for it, she would let him say something in the end. She has many ways. In the past, it was because they were unfamiliar and were embarrassed. As for now…wait and see!

Deputy general Chu felt very disheartened hearing Chen Hui’s refusal. To her, it was just an ordinary refusal, but to him, it was like a talisman of death. His good friend had already told him the previous affairs and he also saw it clearly. How could he dare to have any involvement with this Lady Chen? He still wants to be a small soldier, get a few military merits and live comfortably in the future. Thinking of this, he had to admit that he admired his good friend. He actually still dared to be in contact with this Lady Chen and wasn’t afraid that mistrustful Lord Li would exterminate him.

Deputy general Chu couldn’t sit still, stood up and said, “It would probably be time to leave in a bit. I’ll go and see.”

He didn’t see what he went to see. He just gave an excuse and ran out of the tent like he was fleeing and disappeared instantly.

Chen Hui just waited for a short moment in the tent, this irregular “diplomatic group” from Great Laing has to go back. As for the negotiation of peace, they only determined the preliminary intentions. After the emperor’s approval is obtained, the various details of the negotiation of peace would be discussed. However, Li Youde probably doesn’t have to worry about these things.

There was only one carriage that came with the group. And under the nose of princess Yatai, Chen Hui could only run to deputy general Chu and say, “Deputy general Chu, take me.”

Deputy general Chu felt that seeing Chen Hui was seeing bad luck descend upon him. He took a big step back in fright. Considering the presence of princess Yatai, he could only brace himself and say, “It…it will be too bumpy that way and you will suffer. I, I will go ask Lord Li for you to borrow his carriage.”

Chen Hui naturally didn’t want to ride on the same horse with deputy general Chu. Hearing this, she got a bit closer to him and whispered, “Don’t let princess Yatai notice anything strange.”

Deputy general Chu had heard the conversation between Chen Hui and princess Yatai. He has a general idea about what Chen Hui and princess Yatai talked about. While pitying himself for being involved inexplicably, he braced his head and walked to Li Youde’s side who was looking at him coldly.

“Lord Li, that, that Lady Chen…,” Deputy general Chu stammered while facing Li Youde’s gaze that couldn’t wait to tear him apart.

“Get in,” Li Youde turned his head and got into the carriage without waiting for deputy general Chu to finish. He really wanted to act in a fit of pique and not let her get in. He was really angry before. She deliberately spoke that kind of nonsense in front of him. However, when he thought that she really dared to ride a horse with deputy general Chu, he became even angrier and felt that even if he dies from anger, he couldn’t act in a fit of pique. What if she was happy to be like that?

Deputy general Chi breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and beckoned at Chen Hui.

Chen Hui walked over step by step pretentiously. Before getting into the carriage, she turned around and waved to princess Yatai indicating that she didn’t need to worry. Then, she got into the carriage.

Li Youde sat there, looking at the door of the carriage and stared at Chen Hui who had gotten in.

Chen Hui ignored his gaze. After the group set off for a while and after making sure that they were far enough from the Xi camp, she suddenly covered her face and started crying, “Lord, do you dislike this Lady Chen?”
