Chapter 170: I will keep the secret for you
“Everything that happened last night was purely an accident. I didn’t do it on purpose! After I discovered you were female, I immediately dressed you. So, don’t worry…..I didn’t…”
Although Dongfang Bai didn’t do anything wrong, his handsome face was now as red as a tomato. Likewise, Le Yao Yao was the same.
After all, ever since she was little, she had never allowed anyone of the opposite sex to view her body. She had no idea how much Dongfang Bai had seen. Perhaps he saw her stark naked!
Oh God! So embarrassing!
So now, the two of them didn’t say anything else. The atmosphere was turning very awkward.
After a long period of silence, Le Yao Yao was the first one to break it. She still had a lot of questions she wanted to ask.
“Aside from you, is anyone else aware of my female identity? Nangong Jun Xi was also there. Does he know?”
Currently, Le Yao Yao was very distressed.
Seeing this, Dongfang Bai shook his head. “At the time, Jun Xi was already drunk. He had collapsed and was sleeping soundly. So, he does not know you’re female.”
“Whew….that’s good.”
If anyone were to discover her female identity, she would rather it be Dongfang Bai. Because she trusted him!
She honestly cherished her life and strongly believed if the King of Hell had discovered her identity last night, she would be dead.
If Nangong Jun Xi had found out, he would definitely have told the King of Hell since he was his senior brother. So, she would also end up dead.
Whereas, Dongfang Bai would probably keep it a secret for her.
Right now, Le Yao Yao could see that Dongfang Bai was watching her silently without saying a word.
“Aren’t you going to ask why I’m disguised as a eunuch?”
“If I ask, would you tell?”
Le Yao Yao shook her head honestly, “No.”
After all, she doesn’t even know herself! She had transmigrated into this unfamiliar land and took over someone else’s body. She doesn’t even know the identity of this girl. So if Dongfang Bai wanted to find out, she wouldn’t be able to give him a response either.
“Then, I will not ask.”
Dongfang Bai understood that everyone had secrets that they want to keep to themselves. So, he respected her decision.
Perhaps, one day, she will tell him when she’s ready.
Ah… he’s such a respectful and understanding man! She must have done something great in her previous life to gain such a wonderful “brother”!
Thinking of this, Le Yao Yao felt a sweetness overdose. Now, she gave Dongfang Bai a brilliant smile. “Brother Bai, you’re the best! You’ll help me keep this as a secret, right??!” Le Yao Yao pleaded.
Seeing Le Yao Yao’s desperation and cute tone, Dongfang Bai felt as if she was a cute little kitten. His heart couldn’t help but soften.
So, he nodded without thinking.
“Sure.”
“Haha! I always knew you were the best!”
Le Yao Yao cheered after Dongfang Bai gave her the response she wanted. Seeing this, Dongfang Bai realized that Le Yao Yao’s smile was very contagious. In addition, her words made his heart felt like it had been drenched with honey.
She said, he was the best!
Haha…
Suddenly, this beautiful scenery was interrupted by a strange sound. The strange sound was coming from Le Yao Yao’s stomach.
Le Yao Yao immediately placed her hand behind her head and laughed awkwardly, “Brother Bai, I’m hungry. Do you have anything good to eat?”
“Haha. Of course! Give me a second.”
Then, Dongfang Bai stood up and headed inside. A few moments later, he carried a plate of item out.
When Le Yao Yao saw the items on the plate, her eyes instantly lit up. “Wow! It’s osmanthus cake and steamed dumplings! They’re my favourite!!”
“Haha. If you like it, then eat more. No need to be courteous.”
Hearing this, Le Yao Yao was definitely not courteous as she began to munch on the osmanthus cake.
“Haha! It’s so delicious! Brother Bai, so you actually like my favourite foods? Last time the 7th Prince said you guys didn’t like to eat sweet items!”
Le Yao Yao recalled the 7th Prince saying none of them liked sweet foods.
Dongfang Bai smiled in response, “Haha. In the past, I didn’t like sweet items. But that was because I didn’t know they could taste so good.”
Then, Dongfang Bai took a piece of osmanthus cake and began to eat it elegantly.
In the past, he would never eat stuff like this. But as long as she likes it, he will like it.
Plus, he had already predicted her arrival today. So, he had gotten people to prepare this ahead of time. Because, nothing makes him happier than to see her smile and satisfied. Her smile makes him feel like the world was a beautiful place.
As long as she’s happy, he’s happy…
Obviously, Le Yao Yao had no idea those were Dongfang Bai’s thoughts. All she focused on was the delicious items in front of her. She didn’t stop eating at all.
Although she was eating very unladylike, to Dongfang Bai, it was very cute and real.
But when Dongfang Bai saw that Le Yao Yao had devoured the entire plate of osmanthus cake and steamed dumplings, astonishment could be seen in his eyes.
He had never encountered a girl who could eat so much…
Le Yao Yao ate the last remaining steamed dumplings and then licked her fingers. She had no idea that her actions was stimulating to Dongfang Bai.
In his mind, he couldn’t stop seeing the flashbacks from last night. Le Yao Yao’s long hair had spilled over her shoulders. Her clothes were all off except for the band around her chest.
Her charming body was spinning in his mind the entire night. It wouldn’t leave his heart alone…
Gradually, Le Yao Yao noticed Dongfang Bai’s eyes on her. But she thought he was only staring her because of how much she had eaten.
After all, there were a lot of steamed dumplings and osmanthus cake. Dongfang Bai only ate a piece or two. She was the one who devoured everything else.
While she was eating, she didn’t think too much of it. But now that she was finished, she felt as if she had eaten too much. No wonder Dongfang Bai was gazing at her oddly.
So now, Le Yao Yao looked a bit awkward as she tried to explain herself, “Hehe. Uh… I think I’m going through puberty these days. So my appetite has increased…”
“I see. Are you full now? If you’re still hungry, I’ll tell Xiao Tang to go buy more.” Dongfang Bai gently replied.
Hearing this, Le Yao Yao shook her head. “No, it’s okay! I’m full now. Thank you…”
“That’s good. You’re at an age where you should eat more.”
After all, Le Yao Yao was around sixteen years of age. She was going through puberty and should naturally eat more.
Suddenly, Le Yao Yao’s eyes caught something and she beamed.
“Eh?! Brother Bai!!? You know how to play the guqin?!”
(In case you guys have forgotten what a guqin is)
