Chapter 73: Too Embarrassing

Translator: YTJS_  Editor: Perriemix

“You knew that I was coming? Were you waiting for me?” Xia Chunyu was a little surprised.

It took him much difficulty to coax Princess Liu Li back to the palace so it was a long time before he was able to come to Yaoyao. He also had been forced to say things in front of her that he knew she wouldn’t like. This woman was very petty so he knew that if he didn’t explain himself to her, they’d be in an even worse relationship than they already were. Luckily, he had instructed his guard to follow her, otherwise, he would’ve never found out where she currently was.

“I was waiting for you to settle some scores. Why else would I sit here and stuff myself?” Ye Jiayao leaned on the chair painfully, gingerly touching her stomach.

Xia Chunyu flushed red. Was she really that unconcerned with her image? He felt like walking away and pretending he didn’t know her.  She’s too embarrassing!

He said in a low voice, “I’ll wait for you outside.”

“Hey,” she protested. “You made me wait for so long, you have to pay for this meal.”

Ye Jiayao said it so loudly that the customers around her all turned to look at them.

He snarled at Yaoyao, hoping that his glare was conveying his annoyance. Ye Jiayao simply raised her chin challengingly.

“How much?” Xia Chunyu asked the waiter.

“Seven taels, sir.”

Xia Chunyu paid and left.

With that crisis averted, Ye Jiayao was finally able to walk out of the place dignified. Well, as dignified as she could with her stomach too full.

She stood by Fu Ji’s door with her hand on her stomach and looked around. She could not see Chunyu anywhere.  Where is he? Did he run away?

“Come on up.”

Ye Jiayao turned to see the curtain of a horse carriage lift up. Dumb Donkey was looking impatiently at her, motioning for her to climb up.

She huffed and puffed as she spent a great deal of effort to hoist herself up the carriage. She pushed Chunyu to a side and took more than half of the space in the carriage as she lied down. She was literally stuffed to the brim with food and her stomach was revolting with every move she makes.

“Why did you get a carriage?” Ye Jiayao asked.

Xia Chunyu snorted, “I couldn’t very well walk with someone who can’t even take half a step without doubling in pain, could I?”

Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes angrily.

“Would it have killed you to take one less mouthful? Are the dishes in Fu Ji so delicious? Better than the ones you make?” Xia Chunyu really could not stand how sloppy she looked. Up in the mountains, he used to tell her that she does not behave like a rich man’s daughter, but this was on a whole new level. She was behaving  and  looking like a total greasy ruffian.

“What do you care?” Ye Jiayao retorted.  Do you really think I chose to do this? This is all because your precious princess is so spoiled that she can’t take it when someone’s right! I lost my money!

“Do you think I want to care? You’re the one who  begged  me to, remember? Or have you forgotten biting my nose just to make me swear not to abandon you? Aren’t you angry with me now just because I didn’t fulfill that promise?” Xia Chunyu mocked before instructing the coachman to move.

Ye Jiayao barely heard him as she curled up in pain. Her stomach was aching so much, she has no energy left to bicker with him.

“Is it really very terrible?” His big hand reached over and rested on her stomach.
