A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

Chapter 39 Unreserved

Jiang Xinyu sat by the pond, lost in thought. The sun gradually set, and the orange-red glow of the sunset cast a faint halo on her face.

Perhaps she was thinking of something happy, because the smile on her lips gradually widened, and her already radiant face looked even more charming and alluring in the glow of the sunset.

As Xiao Yuan walked over, he saw this beautiful scene. He was amazed for a moment, but then he gritted his teeth in anger.

Didn't you say you were looking for yourself for ages and then sat by the pond crying? Look at you, laughing happily.

Their foolish methods are beneath them, and they can't even act convincingly.

The maids in the manor need to be taught a lesson. How dare they disobey him and give him false information? Do they even remember who the master of this manor is?

The little maid following behind Xiao Yuan was about to cry. It was clearly Sister Qiyue who said that Madam was crying by the pool because she couldn't find the Grand Eunuch, but who knows why she's not crying now.

Now it's all over; the lady isn't crying anymore, it's their turn to cry.

Jiang Xinyu only noticed Xiao Yuan's arrival after the maidservant bowed, and she immediately ran towards him with delight, lifting her skirt.

My legs went numb from sitting for so long, and my embroidered shoes were too soft, so I stepped on a pebble and twisted my ankle after only a couple of steps.

Jiang Xinyu felt a chill in her heart. This was it; the corrugated iron cover was probably going to get rubbed raw.

That jerk is petty. He didn't pick her up yesterday, and he's already run away because of her today, so he definitely won't talk to her anymore.

Unfortunately, even with her beautiful face, she is about to lose one of her few remaining advantages.

Unexpectedly, the expected pain did not come, but it was not a warm embrace either.

Just as she was about to fall face-first to the ground, Xiao Yuan took two quick steps and grabbed her clothes from behind, finally stopping her from falling.

Jiang Xinyu cursed inwardly, "Is this man overly romantic? He didn't even know to hug me when he had such a good opportunity. No wonder he's almost 30 and still single."

Fine, if the mountain won't come to me, I'll come to the mountain.

After regaining her composure, Jiang Xinyu grabbed Xiao Yuan's arm, slowly straightened herself up, and then exaggeratedly threw herself into Xiao Yuan's arms, pretending to cry.

"My husband, you came just in time! I was so scared!"

Xiao Yuan frowned and reached out to tear Jiang Xinyu off his body.

Damn it, he's hugging me pretty tightly.

Jiang Xinyu chuckled, "You dog of a man, I knew you'd try this trick again."

Grandma's holding your clothes. If you're not afraid of tearing them off, then keep pulling.

Xiao Yuan snorted coldly, "I really don't know how the Jiang family raised you. Hugging and kissing in public is no proper behavior."

"Get off me! You may be shameless, but I still have my pride."

Jiang Xinyu buried herself in Xiao Yuan's arms and grumbled unhappily, "What do you mean by 'in public'? Can't a husband and wife hug each other in their own home?"

My husband, I was so worried when I couldn't find you, I even cried.

"Did you come here specifically to see me?"

Jiang Xinyu's warm little face pressed against his chest made Xiao Yuan feel itchy, so he didn't dare to push her away forcefully and awkwardly turned to the side.

"Stop trying to glorify yourself. I'm just afraid you might do something rash and jump into the pond, scaring my koi."

Instead of reflecting on your actions in your own yard, why are you running around like this? If you don't want to live, hang yourself from the roof beam. Don't you dare die in the pond and ruin my feng shui!

Jiang Xinyu stared wide-eyed in disbelief, "Husband, do you even know how to do accounts?"

How much does it cost to fill in a pond?

How much does it cost to build a house?

"If I hang myself in the house, will it turn into a haunted house?"

Xiao Yuan always felt that he couldn't keep up with Jiang Xinyu's thought process, and seeing her serious expression, he couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.

"You ungrateful idiot, let go, or I'll knock you out."

This sentence worked better than anything else. Jiang Xinyu shamefully chickened out, quickly let go of the other person, stood still behind his back, blinked his big eyes, and looked like he was very obedient.

Xiao Yuan brushed off the wrinkles that had been pressed into his clothes with disdain. This girl was both cowardly and brave.

Why are you looking for my place everywhere?

You'd better have some self-awareness. You're just a decoration I brought home, so you should be aware of your place as a decoration.

"Be a good wife to your superior and don't embarrass me."

Xiao Yuan has a very special pair of eyes. Although they are beautiful, they seem to be coated with poison, making people feel cold when they look at them.

Especially when he has a mocking smile on his lips, he looks like a sinister and cunning snake demon, and those with weak hearts are often frightened out of their wits without even needing to say a harsh word.

But Jiang Xinyu was absolutely smitten with his arrogant little face. Knowing that he wouldn't take the initiative because of his inner conflict, she actually had the audacity to kiss him.

Jiang Xinyu wasn't an ignorant girl. Although they hadn't known each other for long, she could tell that Xiao Yuan was interested in her.

Especially when she pounced on him, she complained but her heart was pounding so hard it was deafening.

The book describes Xiao Yuan as ruthless, vicious, and merciless—a truly capricious and unpredictable villain.

But he was very indulgent towards her, and even considered her needs in many things. Even if she acted improperly outside, he was willing to cooperate with her and support her.

For someone like Xiao Yuan, these things are not in line with his usual style. Does that mean that I am also very special in his heart?

And then there was the incident in the afternoon when he got angry and furious. If it were according to her usual style, he wouldn't have needed to get so angry. He could have just waved his hand and called over a few of his men to give her a beating.

Looking back now, she was really ungrateful to be angry with Xiao Yuan back then. He would rather break down the door than hit her. What else could it be if not love?

Many men these days are cowards outside but dare to beat their wives when they get home.

For a man like Xiao Yuan, who wields great power in a feudal society, the fact that he doesn't commit domestic violence alone is enough to surpass 99% of the people in the Great Jin Dynasty.

Jiang Xinyu sat by the pond for two hours and figured something out.

Xiao Yuan, a person with a physical disability, is both insecure and arrogant; it's not easy to expect him to open up.

She didn't want to cause another misunderstanding like she did in the afternoon. People have mouths to talk, and it's tiring to keep worrying about misunderstandings all the time.

Moreover, this is a society where servants have no human rights, and Xiao Yuan holds a high position of power and is ruthless.

It's fine if the two of them act in idol dramas, but if it implicates innocent people, she will definitely feel guilty.

In modern society, those domineering CEOs who threaten to wipe out an entire family are just joking around, but Xiao Yuan truly has that power.

If she couldn't accept Xiao Yuan forcing her, she would definitely prioritize her own safety.

But since the two of them clearly like each other and it's perfectly legal, there's really no need to cause any more trouble.

It's okay if Xiao Yuan doesn't believe her; he'll just say and do more to make her feel it.

If this happened to a young lady from a wealthy family in ancient times, who loved you but couldn't express it, the two of them would probably misunderstand each other until death.

But who is Jiang Xinyu?

She's read 800 romance novels; she knows all the plots.

He's just an insecure male protagonist, so he's straightforward and gets straight to the point.

Say "I love you" to him every day, and let him truly feel that you have absolutely no dislike for him.

What this kind of man needs most is a sense of security; just give him that.

If you are devoted to me, I will be with you through thick and thin; if you are greedy and greedy, I will withdraw.

Jiang Xinyu has always been someone who can take things in stride and let them go easily. If she loves, she loves wholeheartedly; what's with all the pretense!
