Chapter 36: Win-win Situation!

One is a white lotus, and the other is a green tea. They are a fated match made in heaven indeed!

Yun Shu could hear everything even if they were whispering to each other because of her sharp hearing skill for being a martial artist.

Wasn’t the Princess supposed to be a female lead for Bai Yunxian?

When did she have a crush on me?!

Ding!

Tsk!

Giving out a quest mission out of nowhere, on top of that, threatening me with my life?

What the hell is going on?!

All of the relations Bai Yunxian had would help him with his growth to become the strongest man in the world.

Because all the influential men and women were attracted to him.

If I were to break the relationship now, how would he grow to become stronger? Does it even make sense?

“The growth of the Protagonist now lies up to you as a duty, Host. You need to take all the relations to your side and use them to your own advantage. And nurture the protagonist using those tactics.” Chen Yi explained the situation to Yun Shu briefly as he nodded his head like a wise old man.

!

If so, isn’t that good for me as well?

I can make big connections ahead of time, and complete the missions quickly to live a wealthy and lazy life!

It’s a win-win situation!

However, it still annoyed her when she thought of how these crazy guys would latch onto her and do crazy things.

Do I need to become a nanny for spoiled children and look after them?

Yun Shu wanted to grab her hair and scream out in frustration, but held herself back with difficulty; pretending as if nothing happened on the outside.

After a while, the both of them finally parted ways as Bai Yunxian went back to Yun Shu’s side, while Yun Niang was still whining.

“Don’t forget to send me a wedding invitation. Even if I can’t bear to see my long time friend getting married to my beloved, I don’t want to part ways here. At least, I can see him from far away even if I can’t have him!”

Yun Niang wasn’t the best at acting, tears didn’t come out even if she squeezed her eyes. That’s why she was hiding her face with hands as she sniffled, pretending to cry to hwr best of ability.

’You don’t need to cry if you can’t, you know?’

Yun Shu’s mouth twitched at the sight, but she didn’t say anything.

On the other hand, Bai Yunxian was an expert when it came to pretending, so Yun Shu wrapped her arm around him as she leaned down on his ear and whispered.

“Don’t overdo it.”

Bai Yunxian froze at the sudden action, causing him to get hiccups.

“We will send an invitation to everyone, don’t worry. Princess, I think both you and Lady Bai are exhausted. You should go back and have a good rest.”

’Women are surely troublesome.’

Yun Shu nodded her head lightly as she turned around, prepared to leave. But on the other hand, misunderstanding from the other part grew even more.

’How polite and gentleman cousin is! He didn’t forget to tell me to take care of myself even when we won’t be able to live together! Fine, I’ll take care of myself for the sake of my beloved!”

Yun Niang threw a glance at Yun Shu with eyes full of crazy life, which sent chills down her spine.

’Weird, Why does it feel so cold around me today?’

While Yun Shu didn’t find out the reason of getting shivers all of a sudden, she decided to get back inside the carriage.

However, for some reason, Bai Yunxian was feeling bitter after watching how Yun Shu escorted the princess back to the carriage as he narrowed his eyes and his face went black like dark clouds.

“Look at him flirting with other woman when he is about to get married. Sure enough, all the man are nothing but jerks with sweet tongue! I won’t believe a word from him unless I get a proof of it personally!”

Yun Shu got chill once again as she sneezed, she wondered if anyone was thinking about her.

’Nope, the people who would think of me have all been sent to the underworld a long time ago. I probably caught a cold to get chills.’

Soon, they arrived at the Yun Manor. And was sent to her courtyard to match clothes size.

However, Bai Yunxian felt unwilling to wear the phoenix robe used for the bride as he looked at Yun Shu with helpless eyes.

“There is nothing you can do when you are my bride. Just put up with it for now.”

Even if Bai Yunxian was unwilling, the phoenix robe wasn’t able to hide his charm.

’I wonder what he would look like if I were to make him wear modern dresses. He would look like an idol prince charming for sure!’

Yun Shu was secretly admiring Bai Yunxian’s beauty before she got sent to put on the dragon robe by the maids.

“Wow! Our lord sure looks even more handsome wearing the dragon robe. It feets him just perfect!”

The maids squealed secretly, while Bai Yunxian was stunned to say anything as he only stared at the man blankly in a daze.

“What? Is your husband so charming that you can’t take your eyes off of him?”

Yun Shu walked closer to Bai Yunxian as she whispered in his ears, which made the guy come back to his senses and blush crimson red.

“Umm.”

Nonetheless, Yun Shu did look like an otherworldly handsome creature coming down to earth, Bai Yunxian didn’t deny that as he lowered his head and replied.

“What?!”

Yun Shu was stunned by the answer given by Bai Yunxian, she didn’t expect to get a compliment out of him.

Didn’t he hate guys the most for making his life miserable?

Why did he compliment her just now?

Embarrassed, Yun Shu cleared her throat as she went back to change again, since the measurement was done.

After that, Bai Yunxian and Yun Shu didn’t talk with each other because of the awkwardness between them, Yun Shu left the room in a hurry to work.

***

At midnight,

“Finally done, ah… my neck hurts like hell. Damn!”

Yun Shu completed her bamboo scrolls as she stretched her body after sitting in the same position for a long time.

The memorials are hella boring work, even in the ancient times, it was no different from being stuck at the office with overtime work!

“At this rate, I’ll soon crumble down and turn into dust! No, this cannot continue. I need to recruit some hard working fella to become my assistant! That’s it!”

As she thought, Yun Shu looked around the entire room.

Tonight, both of them would sleep in separate rooms before the night of the wedding day.

However, a naughty idea came in Yun Shu’s head as she smirked, eyes full of evil intentions.

Since Bai Yunxian is going to become my wife anyway, why not go there and take a look at what she’s doing?

.

On the other hand,

Bai Yunxian walked out of the steamy shower as he tugged his hair behind his ear.

Since there was no one around the room, he let the white and silky gown on his body loose as he walked inside the room and sat down on the bed with his wet hair, it seems that he didn’t had any intention to dry his hair as he continued to stare at the ground with blank eyes.

It’s been a long time since he took a shower like this, taking his time, peacefully.

“It was indeed a fruitful day for me.”

He mumbled as he thought of the incidents that happened today once more, many things were changing its course slightly.

And the influencer behind these changes were none other than Yun Shu, a young lord of the prestigious Yun family; and a man who didn’t have any connection to him in previous circle.

When he emerged in self thought, a group of shadows entered the room from the open window as they kneeled down and bowed towards Bai Yunxian.

“Hail to the Lord.”

“We were late for the mission, please punish us. My lord!”

Bai Yunxian was separated from them by a curtain in between, and the guards weren’t able to see his face.

“Get up.”

Bai Yunxian didn’t had any intention to move away from the bed as he signaled them to get up, like a domineering overlord.
