The Eunuch is Pregnant [2]

Chapter 277

On the other side of the shore, Le Yao Yao had already finished arranging the wooden frames. She wasn't there to hear the conversation between Leng Jun Yu and Leng Yi Xuan.

Earlier, when she saw that they were going to fish, she felt it was inappropriate to wait by the shore doing nothing. So, she began to gather some branches to create a spot to roast the fishes later.

Now that she was finished, she clapped away the dust in her hands and went over to the boys.

"What are you two talking about? Xuan'er, are you bothering uncle?"

"Mommy! Xuan'er wouldn't bother uncle! Xuan'er just wants to persuade uncle to stay!" Xuan'er pouted, looking upset.

"Brother Du Gu wants to leave?" Le Yao Yao couldn't hide the shock in her voice.

The moment she imagined him leaving, her heart felt like it was missing a corner.

Yu knew that Le Yao Yao didn't want to accept it. But, he nodded. "I have something to attend to. I will be leaving soon."

Le Yao Yao's expression fell and she turned slightly pale. But, she nodded and forced a smile. "If that's the case, I won't force brother Du Gu to stay. Do you think we'll meet again in the future?"

For some strange reason, she felt as if this was their final farewell. She really didn't want him to go. Ever since they have been together, Du Gu had never taken off his conical hat.

She truly wanted to see his face. If he would only take off his veil, she would get her answer!

At the moment, Leng Jun Yu was crouching down slitting the raw fish. He could see her forced expression and his thin lips pursed.

Obviously, he was aware of her thoughts. Clearly, Yao Yao was trying to figure out whether he was the man she loved.

Yes, she guessed correctly. He is the man she wanted. But sadly, he can't ever let her know that.

Going through separation once is enough. His days are limited. Even if he wanted, he wouldn't be able to stay with her for long.

So, in order to stop her from furthering her investigation, he must leave.

They will never see each other again.

"We won't see each other again." Leng Jun Yu heartlessly replied. But every word was like a dagger digging into his chest.

Le Yao Yao bitterly smiled. "I see..." She had no idea that her smiling face looked worse than her crying face.

The wind picked up and the trees swayed. Their sleeves began to flutter.

Underneath the sunlight, both of them felt as if a layer of darkness was looming over them.

"Xuan'er, didn't you say you wanted to learn how to fish? Uncle will teach you now. Okay?"

Perhaps Leng Jun Yu felt like the atmosphere was too uncomfortable, so he quickly turned to Leng Yi Xuan.

"Yay! Uncle is awesome!"

"Haha."

Leng Jun Yu envied how the little guy smiled so freely. He had no worries and lived in the present.

When you're clueless, you can be so much happier.

Leng Jun Yu handed the three fishes to Le Yao Yao. "I'll hand the roasting part to you."

"Alright. You two go have fun. When the fishes are ready, I'll call you guys."

"Mm."

Then, Leng Jun Yu washed his hands and lifted Leng Yi Xuan onto his shoulders.
