Chapter 891: A Woman with Extreme Tastes

Lin Lei took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and continued:

"Evacuating the entire Red Water City and taking all the food is a big project, but I estimate it can be completed within three days. By then, the city can be given to the enemy."

"That’s too slow!" Ye Xiu said, "Give the City Lord of Red Water City a strict order: everyone must move out within two days."

Lin Lei was furious, who the hell are you ordering around?

Yufei found Ye Xiu more interesting. This Lei Xiaoming, he’s really audacious, a true man!

The maid was already kneeling on the ground in fright, she could already imagine the Emperor’s thunderous wrath.

"Eat, why are you all in a daze? The food will get cold and won’t taste good!"

Ye Xiu looked up and saw Lin Lei and Yufei were not eating, so he called out.

Lin Lei and Yufei exchanged a glance. How did it come to the guest inviting the host? Is ’Lei Xiaoming’ trying to usurp the position of the host?

Lin Lei took a deep breath, silently reciting in his mind, don’t get angry, don’t get angry, I’m a dignified ruler, not comparable to a fool, I need to be broad-minded, broad-minded, broad-minded...

After a long while, Lin Lei finally calmed the rage in his chest and continued:

"Mr. Lei is talented, the country..."

"Serve me a bowl of rice!"

Ye Xiu interrupted Lin Lei, holding out his bowl to him, and said:

"Yufei’s cooking is really good, so delicious!"

Lin Lei: "..."

"Let me, let me..."

Yufei saw Lin Lei’s face turning green with anger, quickly took Ye Xiu’s bowl and served him rice, feeling even more intrigued by Ye Xiu.

Lin Lei took a deep breath again, suppressing the anger in his heart, and continued with what Ye Xiu had interrupted earlier:

"Mr. Lei is talented, the country needs talents like you, I, the king, hope..."

"Thank you!" Ye Xiu took the bowl filled by Yufei, lowered his head, and ate silently again.

Lin Lei felt like exploding with anger, and asked, "Mr. Lei, don’t you think it’s very rude to interrupt others like this?"

Ye Xiu looked up at Lin Lei: "Am I rude? The Emperor told me not to be restrained, to treat this place like my own home."

You really mean it!

I told you to treat this place like your home, and you really treat it like your home?

Lin Lei suddenly felt his head spinning, with anger getting the best of him.

"The Emperor just said I’m talented, what do you hope for?" Ye Xiu asked.

Lin Lei picked up his bowl to eat: "Nothing!"

After saying that, he ignored Ye Xiu, buried himself in eating, and after last night’s incident at the Thousand Mechanism Hall, he realized Ye Xiu was a talent. He initially wanted to win Ye Xiu over and hoped Ye Xiu would voluntarily resign from the position of the little princess’s guard and work with him.

That’s why there was the breakfast invitation this morning!

But Lin Lei now found he couldn’t endure ’Lei Xiaoming’s personality, and decisively gave up on winning him over!

"I’m full!"

Lin Lei put down his bowl and chopsticks, saying with a cold face:

"I have things to do, I’ll leave first, Yufei, you host Lei Xiaoming well on my behalf!"

After speaking, without waiting for Ye Xiu and Yufei’s response, he left directly.

He was worried if he didn’t leave, he would end up pinning Ye Xiu to the ground and beating him to death.

"You, go and guard the entrance, shout if someone comes."

After Lin Lei left, Yufei said to the maid kneeling on the ground.

"Yes!"

The maid quickly got up and ran out.

Only then did Yufei couldn’t help but laugh, and asked:

"Mr. Lei, were you deliberately provoking the Emperor earlier?"

Ye Xiu noncommittally replied: "Between the little princess and the Emperor, I can only choose one!"

Actually, as soon as he entered the villa, Ye Xiu had guessed Lin Lei’s intention of inviting him for a meal was nothing other than trying to win him over.

But he wanted to go to the Underground City and could only rely on Kristina, so he can’t do anything that would betray Kristina.

So he could only confront Lin Lei, forcing Lin Lei to give up on winning him over!

"Aren’t you afraid of angering the Emperor and bringing a disaster to yourself?" Yufei asked with great interest.

Ye Xiu sneered disdainfully: "He doesn’t dare to kill me!"

Yufei’s expression flickered, that’s right, if the Emperor killed the little princess’s guard, it would be tantamount to provoking the little princess, provoking the Golden Family.

Lei Xiaoming knew this, hence he was so fearless!

"Mr. Lei, are you the little princess’s man?"

Yufei suddenly changed the topic and asked.

Uh-oh, this woman’s about to get flirtatious!

Ye Xiu could tell Yufei’s intention at a glance, and said:

"My relationship with the little princess is pure, and as a Golden Totem inheritor, the little princess has no right to choose her own man."

Yufei thought it over and agreed, her mind got active, and her eyes turned tender and soft, her expression gentle and charming.

She got up and walked to Ye Xiu’s side, deliberately leaning her body against him, and said:

"Since Mr. Lei is not the little princess’s man, and Mr. Lei especially likes my cooking, how about..."

Damn, Lei Xiaoming’s face is so ugly, where’s the attraction to the opposite sex?

Yufei’s taste is really heavy.

"I want to take a stroll around the Royal Palace, but with my status, I’m afraid it’s not allowed, Yufei, could you help me?"

Ye Xiu wrapped his arm around Yufei’s waist, smiling as he asked.

Seeing Ye Xiu so straightforward, Yufei was delighted, conveniently sat on his lap, and said:

"As long as you please me, I will take you on a good tour of the Royal Palace."

"I’ll find you tonight," Ye Xiu replied perfunctorily.

Yufei lightly hit Ye Xiu’s chest with her small fists, pouting:

"Can’t it be now?"

Ugh!

Ye Xiu nearly vomited, pinching Yufei’s delicate face, and said:

"Be good, I’ll come find you tonight."

"Alright then!"

Yufei reluctantly got up and said:

"Eat quickly, after you eat, I’ll take you to tour the Royal Palace."

"I’m full!"

Ye Xiu gave Yufei a pat, stood up, and said:

"Let’s go now!"

"You’re so annoying!"

Yufei cooed lightly, pouting:

"The Royal Palace is big, where do you want to tour?"

Ye Xiu pondered for a moment: "Let’s tour the inner palace first, then go elsewhere!"

"Okay then!" Yufei nodded.

Afterwards, under Yufei’s guidance, Ye Xiu released his aura, beginning to probe the entire inner palace.

Yufei, unaware of Ye Xiu’s true intentions, thought he genuinely wanted to tour the Royal Palace, so while they toured, Yufei played the role of a guide, explaining for Ye Xiu.

"Yufei?"

When they ’toured’ to Bluewave Lake, a young man fishing by the lake saw Yufei, got up with surprise, and greeted her, asking:

"How did you know I was here?"

Upon seeing this person, Ye Xiu’s face turned dark, wasn’t this the Prince from last night!

Yufei didn’t expect to run into the Fifth Prince here, she giggled saying:

"Well, I was just walking around, didn’t expect to see you here too."

At this moment, she was a bit flustered; she didn’t want ’Lei Xiaoming’ to know about her relationship with the Fifth Prince;

Nor did she want the Fifth Prince to know about her relationship with ’Lei Xiaoming.’

"Just walking around?"

The Fifth Prince noticed Yufei’s embarrassment, evasive gaze, and vague words, sensing something was off.

He coldly looked at Ye Xiu and asked:

"Yufei, who is he? Why have I never seen him before?"
