The Eunuch is Pregnant - Chapter 275

Chapter 275

Since Yu was willing to stay, Le Yao Yao hurriedly ordered some dishes .

“Give us a simmer-fried bass, steamed pork chops and some spicy shrimps . ”

“Alright, valued customers . Please wait a moment . The dishes will be out shortly . ”

In no time, the hot dishes arrived at the table .

Le Yao Yao smiled at the man across from her . “Plain tea and simple food, I hope this hero doesn’t mind . This is to thank hero for your assistance yesterday . ”

“It was nothing . No need to mention it . ”

“Haha . By the way, my first name is Le and I go by a single name, Yao . May I ask for your name, hero?”

“Du Gu . ” The man stated without thinking .

“Du Gu?”

Du Gu, Gu Du…wow that name suits the man very much .  (tl: gudu is the mandarin word for lonely/loneliness)

Has he always been lonely?

For some reason, Le Yao Yao’s heart ached when she imagined a lonely Du Gu .

Is Yu also lonely in Heaven?

Le Yao Yao forced a smile . “Brother Du Gu, please eat . Or else, the dishes will turn cold . ”

Then, Le Yao Yao turned to her son . “Xuan’er, you must also eat . You need to eat in order to grow!”

“Mmhmm! Xuan’er will eat like a good child . Then, when Xuan’er gets big, Xuan’er will protect mommy!” beamed Xuan’er .

Under the black veil, Leng Jun Yu’s eyes were turning red . He had longed for this moment for so long .

Every time when he was on the verge of death, he would keep pushing on for his wife and child .

He wanted to give them the best of everything . He wanted to eat with them . He wanted to personally teach his child how to read and fight .

At least, he managed to check off one thing on his list .

In the future, when he is gone, at least he will have some pleasant memories .  

Leng Jun Yu looked at the dishes and his heart stirred .

The dishes are all his favourites…

He really wished this moment could pause forever .

If only time could stop…

Sadly, the meal ended in a blink of an eye . After they were finished with their food, Le Yao Yao ordered some desserts . Then, she turned to face him .

“Brother Du Gu, where do you plan to go after this?”

“I have no fixed residence . I’m just wandering around . ”

“What a coincidence! Xuan’er and I are also wandering around . Would you like to join us?”

“What?” the man was clearly surprised .

Seeing this, Le Yao Yao bit her tongue .

She was too rash . Or perhaps, her subconscious was speaking for her .

She really didn’t want to part from this man . Although he wasn’t Yu, she had been lonely for too long .

In fact, she missed Yu so much that she was practically turning insane .

So, for now, she will be selfish and imagined him as Yu .

However, she knew it was kind of ridiculous to ask a random strange to accompany her . So, she added, “Brother Du Gu, although you defeated the bad guys for us yesterday, my martial arts skills are not that great . If I encounter the bad guys again, I’m a bit… . ”

Le Yao Yao paused .

“I was wondering if brother Du Gu would join us . Not only will we have each other’s company, I also want your protection . Of course, I don’t expect you to join us for free . I can pay you . Name a price . ”

Le Yao Yao was so afraid of rejection that she used money as a lure . But the man in front of her didn’t seem interested at all . He coldly replied, “No need . ”

Le Yao Yao felt as if she had been thrown into despair .

Xuan’er could tell his mother really wanted the uncle to stay . So, without thinking, he instantly tugged the man’s sleeves . “Uncle! Xuan’er likes you, uncle! Uncle, can you join us? Please? Pleaseeeeeee???”

First and foremost, he was doing it for his mommy . But deep down, Xuan’er actually liked this uncle . He had never experienced this emotion before . Although he had never seen the uncle’s face, he felt very happy around him .

Xuan’er had no idea the impact his words had on Leng Jun Yu .

What? Xuan’er said… . he likes him? Really???!

He had always wondered if his son hated him for not being in his life . Honestly, when he found out he was going to die, he had already decided he would never let his existence be known . After all, separating once was already painful enough . He didn’t want Yao Yao to go through another heartbreak .

So, he only wanted to silently watch over them . Yet, he couldn’t say no to the little guy’s hopeful face .

Leng Jun Yu slowly bent down and touched his son’s cheek . Then, he gazed up at Le Yao Yao and spoke in his raspy voice, “I said no need . Because, there is no need to pay me . I’m willing to join you guys . ”

“Really?! That’s amazing!” Le Yao Yao exclaimed .

Le Yao Yao realized she was overreacting and quickly tried to calm down . She rubbed her son’s head . “Xuan’er, thank uncle for staying with us! From now on, we don’t have to be afraid of the bad guys!”

“Okay, daddy!”

Xuan’er was a bit confused why his mommy was lying .  Even if uncle doesn’t join them, the bad guys are no matched for mommy! Oh well, I’ll just do what mommy wants . Her happiness is #1! 

So, Xuan’er turned to Leng Jun Yu and sweetly thanked him . “Thank you, uncle!”
