Chapter 837: Chapter 734, Send Off

Luo Honghao, unwillingly glanced at Xiao Yeyang and then at the woman on the bed, cupped his fists and said, "I won’t disturb Mr. Xiao’s good times." After speaking, he quickly turned around and left the room, being careful to shut the door behind him.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Daohua, who was under the covers, peeked out her head. She didn’t dare to speak immediately and waited until Xiao Yeyang sat back down on the bed before she sat up, "Is he gone?"

Xiao Yeyang grunted affirmatively, his gaze fixated on Daohua.

Noticing Xiao Yeyang’s stare, Daohua quickly threw off the blankets and got out of bed, wanting to find the clothes she had changed out of earlier on the ship.

Just as she stood up, Daohua felt her waist tighten, followed by a dizzying whirl, and she fell back onto the bed. Before she could react, a hot kiss fell upon her, more intense and fervent than before.

"Xiao..."

Before Daohua could speak, Xiao Yeyang silenced her with his mouth.

At that moment, the voice of the butler came from outside the door, "Mr. Luo, is there something else?"

Luo Honghao lingered by the door, smiling, "No, the jade pendant I was wearing has fallen off, I came to look for it."

"My master is resting, once he finishes, I’ll go in and help you look," De Fu lowered his voice, "It’s really not good for you to barge in again."

Having heard the activity in the room, a flash crossed Luo Honghao’s eyes, "What Butler De Fu said is right, I’ll just take a look from outside, I won’t disturb Mr. Xiao’s good times again."

While Butler De Fu pretended to look for the jade pendant, Luo Honghao quickly cracked open the door and saw a man and woman passionately kissing on the bed, his brows knitting as he quickly averted his gaze.

"Mr. Luo, your jade pendant is not here."

"Thank you, Butler De Fu, I’ll look elsewhere."

Luo Honghao glanced at the door and walked away.

Xiao Yeyang made sure the woman was well-covered, it was impossible to tell if it was Dong Yuanyao or not.

After walking down to the second floor, the Duke Residence’s butler came over, "Young Master, the housemaids just reported, they saw Dong Yuanyao dressed as a man running this way."

Luo Honghao’s expression sharpened, "Did they see clearly?"

The butler nodded, "They wouldn’t dare to speak rashly about such a matter."

Luo Honghao looked up at the second floor again, his eyes hardened, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Running around for so long has tired me out, I’ll rest for a while on this pleasure boat."

In the second-floor cabin, Daohua felt Xiao Yeyang’s kisses moving lower and quickly reached out to stop him, "Xiao Yeyang, there’s no noise outside, he should be gone."

Xiao Yeyang didn’t heed her, continuing to kiss Daohua’s cheek, ear, and neck, "Don’t lower your guard, Luo Honghao is cunning, who knows if he might suddenly appear again?"

Hearing this, Daohua patiently waited a bit longer, but when she felt Xiao Yeyang’s hands start wandering over her body, she couldn’t hold back anymore. She pushed against Xiao Yeyang’s chest, and in a lowered voice, said, "Xiao Yeyang, that’s enough."

Saying that, she glanced under the bed.

"Dong Yuanyao is still there!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang’s lips curved up, and he easily lifted Daohua’s hands that were pressing against his chest above her head, then bent down to whisper in her ear with a chuckle, "So if there’s no one around, can we continue?"

Annoyed, Daohua glared at Xiao Yeyang who had twisted her words, "I didn’t say that! Let me up, or I’ll really get angry!"

Watching the puffed-up Daohua, Xiao Yeyang found he couldn’t get enough of looking at her. His gaze slowly slid from her cheeks down, repeatedly glancing at the person beneath him, before reluctantly sitting up.

Daohua quickly got off the bed, picked up an outer garment from the floor, and put it on.

Seeing her frantic actions, Xiao Yeyang laughed and asked Butler De Fu outside the door, "Has Luo Honghao left?"

Butler De Fu, "My master, Luo Honghao hasn’t left yet, he has sat down on the pleasure boat, saying he wants to rest for a while."

Xiao Yeyang scoffed, looking at Daohua, "He’s suspicious of you."

Daohua paused, her expression slightly odd, "Is he still going to come up?"

Xiao Yeyang shook his head, "He probably won’t."

Daohua sighed in relief, "Then Dong Yuanyao doesn’t have to stay under the bed anymore." After speaking and noticing Xiao Yeyang was still undressed, she quickly picked up his clothes and handed them to him, "Hurry and put on your clothes."

Xiao Yeyang couldn’t let Dong Yuanyao see him like this.

After Daohua had adjusted her own clothes, she then bent down to look under the bed, "Dong Yuanyao, you can come out now."

Dong Yuanyao responded and crawled out from under the bed.

Daohua wanted to help her up, but her eyes caught the lipstick marks left on Xiao Yeyang’s face and she promptly stood up to wipe them.

She didn’t have a handkerchief, so she could only use her hand.

Daohua held Xiao Yeyang’s head with one hand and wiped the lipstick from around his lips with the other. After a while, it still wasn’t completely clean. Seeing Xiao Yeyang smiling at her without offering to help, she glared at him, "You wipe it off yourself."

Xiao Yeyang shrugged, "I can’t see it."

At this moment, Dong Yuanyao had already come out from under the bed and was awkwardly facing away from the two of them.

Daohua hurriedly pushed Xiao Yeyang to sit in front of the dressing table. "Wipe it off using the mirror." After saying that, she no longer minded him and turned to walk toward Dong Yuanyao.

Looking at Daohua, Dong Yuanyao felt somewhat uneasy and a bit guilty since she had heard everything that had happened on the bed while hiding underneath it.

Daohua saw the apology in her eyes and whispered in her ear, "Xiao Yeyang and I have already performed the wedding ceremony in front of our elders." Implicitly suggesting their actions just now weren’t overstepping, she meant for Dong Yuanyao not to feel burdened.

Dong Yuanyao’s eyes widened in doubt.

Daohua nodded affirmatively.

Dong Yuanyao’s expression relaxed slightly.

Through the mirror, Xiao Yeyang watched Daohua and Dong Yuanyao whispering, his lips curled into a constant smile.

Daohua poured a cup of tea for Dong Yuanyao to drink, then walked over to Xiao Yeyang. "Master Luo’s eldest son is waiting downstairs. How shall we leave?"

Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment before looking at Daohua. "Let Miss Dong change back into her earlier clothes, and you, don’t change yours yet," he said and then left the room.

Daohua, unclear about Xiao Yeyang’s intentions, still took out the clothes they had changed from earlier. "Yuanyao, quickly change your clothes."

Dong Yuanyao looked at Daohua. "What about you?"

Daohua smiled. "Xiao Yeyang won’t let anything happen to me. Let’s follow his plan."

Dong Yuanyao nodded and, with Daohua’s help, changed back into men’s clothing.

As soon as she was dressed, a knock on the door sounded. "I’m coming in."

Daohua uttered a ’hm’, and Xiao Yeyang entered, looking at Dong Yuanyao. "Miss Dong, the pleasure boat is set to return soon. When the boat docks at the next stop, I’ll leave with Daohua. Luo Honghao should follow us off, and you will stay on the boat. Later, a Hidden Guard will come to escort you out of the city."

Dong Yuanyao showed concern. "Will this not make people recognize Yiyi?"

Daohua also looked at Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Yeyang reassured, "I’m here, nothing like that will happen." He then smiled at Daohua and added, "Remember, you are now my concubine, the top courtesan at Huaman Building—Yi Madame!"

Daohua widened her eyes. "I’m a concubine now?"

Xiao Yeyang smiled. "Luo Honghao isn’t so easily fooled. Watch, tonight he’ll find out about An Xi and Yi Madame. If there isn’t a reasonable explanation, tonight’s act would be in vain."

Daohua felt a sudden tension. "Wouldn’t that implicate An Xi and the others?"

Xiao Yeyang, unable to bear seeing Daohua frown, reached out and massaged her. "Rest easy, I have everything arranged."

Not long after his words, the pleasure boat started moving.

Daohua noticed Dong Yuanyao’s nervousness and grasped her hand. "Don’t worry, I will find a chance to meet your uncle and aunt, and your elder brother as well."

About a quarter hour later, the pleasure boat docked again.

Xiao Yeyang personally put a veil on Daohua, and taking advantage of the chaos as people disembarked, he led Daohua onto a small pleasure boat waiting nearby.

By the time Luo Honghao noticed, the small boat had already sailed dozens of meters away.

Without much thought, Luo Honghao and his men followed.

...

"Luo’s eldest son really did follow us."

Daohua looked back at the pursuing boat and said with a smile to Xiao Yeyang.

Xiao Yeyang, smiling, nuzzled her neck. "Now you can rest assured, right?"

Daohua, tickled by the nuzzle, shifted. "Can I sit on the chair? It’s uncomfortable sitting this way."

Xiao Yeyang, looking at the person on his lap, replied, "What’s uncomfortable?"

Daohua, "...You’re holding me too tightly."

Xiao Yeyang listened, then immediately shifted from holding her entirely to just around the waist. "Is this better?"

Daohua still wanted to sit on the chair, but before she could speak, Xiao Yeyang spoke again. "Luo Honghao must be watching us from behind. If he finds something amiss, wouldn’t the act go to waste?"

Seeing Daohua deflate into his embrace, Xiao Yeyang smiled triumphantly.

Behind them, Luo Honghao dared not order his men to get too close, and with the curtain hanging in front of the preceding boat, it was still unclear what the woman in Xiao Yeyang’s arms looked like.

However...

Watching Xiao Yeyang occasionally kissing the woman in his arms, his indulging and covetous manner made Luo Honghao instinctively feel it was not Dong Yuanyao.

"I heard from people in the palace that Xiao Yeyang would marry no one but the eldest daughter of the Yan Family, thinking it was true love. Now it seems, perhaps Xiao Yeyang feels the lower-status Yan Family is easier to control."

"Indeed, he really can put on an act."

While Luo Honghao trailed Xiao Yeyang and Daohua, another inconspicuous little boat approached Dong Yuanyao, taking her directly along the river to leave the city.
