Chapter 142: Deadly Beauty

?

’Did this guy just turn me into a pervert? This damn…!’ Yun Shu was irritated by the fools’ words as she looked at Zhu Zhengting, giving off a forced smile.

’Does he think I’m some brothel owner checking up on beauty?’

I should give him a full dose of medicine!

“Heh! I think it’s rather than me who is checking you up, aren’t you the one eager to jump at me, that’s why you are giving me signals by saying these, right?” Yun Shu probed the guy intentionally after watching him getting swayed by her nonsense.

“No way! I’m not! I—!” Zhu Zhengting’s face turned red as blood as he screamed out loudly, refusing Yun Shu’s words strongly.

While Yun Shu’s eardrums almost burst after hearing so loud noises coming from her side.

’He sure got a music box for his voice… he would get a karaoke award for this voice if he was back in my world…’

“If not, then get to the matter quickly, I still have works left to do.” Yun Shu urged the guy as she looked at his eyes, intimidating him.

“Ahem! Well, I was going to say that anyway, even if I don’t like you. Since it’s my little brother who got help from you and decided to stay with you, I won’t stop him from doing so. However…” Zhu Zhengting became serious as he looked at Yun Shu with a determined face.

“If you ever hurt my kiddo, I wouldn’t let it go. Even if I have to give up my life, I will surely avenge my brother for the sake of his happiness!”

’That’s some good determination he got. I don’t have to worry if he is stronger than now, right? Even if I have to leave Yunxian’s side, then he will be able to take care of him.’

Yun Shu admired his determination and firm attitude, as she looked for something in her space bag. Zhu Zhengting was curious about his sudden change of mood, but stood there anyway until he saw Yun Shu throw something at him.

“What is—!” Zhu Zhengting was annoyed at Yun Shu first after getting attacked by Yun Shu randomly as she threw something at him. But he paused when he looked at the substance in his hand.

“This is…”

“It’s the second set of scrolls containing your Martial Arts technique, the one you are practicing. See if it helps to break through the bottleneck, I’ll wait for the good news.” Yun Shu said as she didn’t stand there anymore, walking away while waving her hand at him.

From behind, Zhu Zhnegting stared at Yun Shu until she disappeared in the corner, his mind consumed in thoughts.

***

One week later,

The pavilion was sunny with the arrival of winter, it was almost noon, but the heat of the sun felt pretty good to the skin.

Bai Yunxian was sitting in the pavilion taking a rest, while watching the knights train in the drill hall, which can be seen from here pretty clearly.

Though he didn’t actually come to see the knights train, rather, it was Yun Shu over whom he came to take a sneaky peek!

Over the whole week, Yun Shu was busy pestering Bai Yubxian and cuddling with him rather than preparing for the upcoming war. He looked so carefree that Bai Yunxian couldn’t help but to worry in his stead.

He took part in all the meetings, and gave his opinions for the preparation as well. The elders and high commanders praised him for his foresight, while the ones who didn’t like him kept their mouths shut.

Since Yun Shu was there to glare at them continuously, Bai Yunxian was pretty at ease even in the meetings, since he knew the flow of the war and all the strategies they used, he explained every one of them and told them to prepare accordingly.

At first, they didn’t want to let him on in the meeting, much less to take his opinion. It was Yu Shu who grabbed his hand, preventing him from leaving the meeting room and tugged him into her lap as she planted a kiss on his cheek.

“You can stay all you want, but there is no spare seat here, so better seat in my lap.” Yun Shu grinned seeing Bai Yunxian blush, satisfied with her flirting.

“Now, start the meeting, shall we?”

The smile on her face seemed ominous, so the elders didn’t dare to act up recklessly. Instead, they tried to borrow Yun Si’s influence to keep Yun Shu on the restraint, though it was in vain.

“Look at this unscrupulous behavior, Your Highness the Crown Prince! If Lord Yun keeps acting like that, then we will become the topic of mockery within all the other Empires!”

“Lord Yun can’t keep behaving like that, it’s not a banquet that you are attending. We are talking about a strategy meeting!”

“People will laugh if they heard you are busy cuddling with a woman in the middle of such an important meeting!”

The commander and generals were at fire thinking that Yun Si would support them. But contrary to their expectations, the smile on Yun Shu’s face broadened like a devil.

“How come you old hags are so fired up, it’s not like I’m enjoying myself with ten or twenty women alone in a brothel of the red district, Left Commander.”

“Everyone knows that I’m a newlywed, and I haven’t got to enjoy a peaceful honeymoon with my wife yet. So what’s the problem if I were to cuddle a bit? Or is it that there is a mole hidden in this place who will go around spreading rumors? Tsk, tsk, I didn’t expect that indeed…”

The thoughtful look on Yun Shu’s face appeared to be very stunning in Bai Yunxian’s eyes, who seemed to be lost in her beauty, while it was something really terrifying to some others.

“That’s not it! There is no way someone will do something like that, Lord Yun! We were just saying…”
