54 Fox demons

” Are you sure?” asked Jia Li fretfully as she looked at the unconscious man who was lying on the floor. She was feeling a tad bit guilty given this happened because of her, if she was a bit careful then something like this would not have happened and the Emperor would have been kicked out of the courtyard in a much more human way. ” The backyard of this place is full of mosquitoes, if we leave him there for an entire night who knows what will happen to his handsome face.... No, I mean to say it will slightly disturbing if he was to get harmed in your place.”

Li Gang whipped him faster than a whirling top spinning on the floor, he turned to look at Jia Li and narrowed his eyes dangerously as he said, ” No, you are just upset that his handsome face will be damaged, I will be a booger in his nose if you cared half about the consequences of what will happen to Hui Ying if he was to get harmed in her palace.”

” I am just trying to be considerate –”

” You wouldn’t have to be considerate if you were careful enough not to be caught!”

” Who thought that this man would pop out of nowhere and that too at night!” Jia Li immediately shouted in an attempt to prove her innocence. ” You all should be thankful to me, he was sneaking inside Hui Ying’s courtyard who knows maybe he had some sort of ill intentions towards Hui Ying, if not for me he would have gotten closer to Hui Ying and then what..what would you have done if Hui Ying’s allergies flared up? It’s because of me that she is completely fine! So be thankful to me!”

The entire corridor turned silent even Zhai Tianyu who was lying on the floor was speechless by the things that he heard, was he being treated like some sort of lecherous bastard? Strictly and firmly speaking, Liu Hui Ying was his wife, right? So, what was wrong with him trying to get inside her courtyard and more importantly he did not have any plans of doing anything to Liu Hui Ying!

Li Gang too was stunned by what Jia Li said, he stared at her before he almost rolled his eyes and said to her, ” You are just trying to make it sound nice! If you care so much about Hui Ying then you have to throw this man out of the courtyard with your own two hands! In case he stays close to Hui Ying then her allergies are going to be flared up anyway!”

” That...”

” What can’t bear to? His handsome face is making you waver?” cooed Li Gang as he looked at Jia Li who raised her hand to hit him but was stopped by Liu Hui Ying who sighed and held one of her hands up. “Enough of you two messing around, just drop him off to the back yard... Li Gang is right, I cannot sleep properly with him sleeping in the same space as me.”

.....

She didn’t have any trust in men, no matter how good everyone told her that they were. Her foolish sister once believed that she knew men better and she paid for it heavily, she too has opened her doors for a man in the night and committed the biggest mistake of trusting him and as a reward for her stupidity, she left broken and bleeding on the floor.

Li Gang shot Jia Li a victorious look before he turned to look at Zhai Tianyu prepared to have the man thrown out of the courtyard but the second he turned his legs trembled slightly when he saw that the man who was lying on the floor with his eyes closed was now looking at him with a blank expression.

” I hope you are doing fine?” Zhai Tianyu said as he raised his hand and waved at Li Gang who sputtered in shock and surprise before turning to look at Liu Hui Ying. She was already looking at Zhai Tianyu with her brows scrunched up, clearly, she was really displeased upon seeing that he has woken up.

” What now?” Grandma Lan Fen asked in worry as she stared at the sight in front of her.

” What else, we will have to make sure that he doesn’t say a word about this to anyone else,” stated Liu Hui Ying as she took a step back and then dropped the hand clutching the handkerchief that was covering her mouth and smiled at the Emperor. ” I hope that you know what you can say and cannot say your majesty... because as far as I know, you will not like being haunted by ghosts at night, right?”

Zhai Tianyu pushed himself off the floor and then wiped his robes as he nodded and said, ” Of course, I wouldn’t but I believe that you will not like being troubled by a ghost exorcising priest as well?”

Liu Hui Ying’s lips twitched as she looked at the man in front of her, he was threatening her, wasn’t he?

” You can try sending them here but,” she placed a hand on her chest and said with a subtle hint of arrogance, ” But they will never be as good as me, if I want then I can exorcise any ghost I want.”

” That might be true but it seems that my Queen does not know that the crime of doing black magic is being executed by your extremities and head tied to horses,” Zhai Tianyu smiled at her with just as much arrogance. ” If you do not want me to write down the imperial decree of your execution, then I suppose...” he turned around and glanced at the three ghosts who were standing behind Liu Hui Ying. “It’s time for us to have a decent conversation, it would be too much of a shame if you die without getting a chance to defend yourself, don’t you think so?”

Liu Hui Ying stared at him, all traces of smile wiped from her lips as she threw her hands in the air and let out an annoyed scream, ” Aish! This is why I hate men! Sneaky little fox demons!”
