The Disabled Tyrant’s Pet Palm Fish [Transmigration] - Chap 64
Chap 64
“I thought about it. I also like you…and want to be together with you. Your highness, can you
agree to a few of my requests? If you can agree, then we… can try being together.” Blushing, Li
Yu said in a small voice.
Although he has times of confusion and awkwardness, and also might get shy when facing the
person that he liked, being straightforward was also a strong point of his.
Actually, what prompted him was the unfortunate transformation skill. He only had two hours
per day, so there’s no time to mince words. If he wanted something, it was best to get straight to
the point. Once they reach a unanimous agreement, then they can start dating successfully!
Thinking about the care Jing-wang had shown towards him, Li Yu inexplicably felt very
confident and held up the words filled paper high in the air, as if afraid Jing-wang wouldn’t be
able to see it.
He already changed and edited these “three basic rules” several times. Jing-wang taught him how
to write before. This time, Li Yu did his best to not write anything wrong. He also did his best to
keep the paper clean and neat. Although it was only a list used to ‘negotiate’, he still wrote it
earnestly and wholeheartedly.
Meanwhile, just listening to Li Yu say that he liked him, already made Jing-wang feel bursting
with joy. Although what Xiao Yu wanted to do wasn’t what Jing-wang was thinking, this wasn’t
important. Don’t say only three rules, if it were 30 rules or 300 rules, he can agree to them all.
Jing-wang reached out and first grabbed Li Yu’s finger, which was accidentally smudged with
ink. Rubbing it gently, he wiped the ink stains away.
This small act made Li Yu feel an abrupt warmth in his heart. His finger, which had received
such meticulous care, attempted to slightly tickle the center of Jing-wang’s palm. Li Yu gathered
his courage and held Jing-wang’s hand, looking at him with a smile.
Jing-wang has been also confirming repeatedly that Xiao Yu won’t get angry and run away
again. Although he had a feeling in the carriage, now it was all out in the open. It still didn’t feel
quite real.
Was he also “worrying about the future”?
Jing-wang couldn’t help, but laugh. Patting Li Yu’s hand, he finally accepted the piece of paper.
The first line that entered his eyes: Don’t keep Li Yu overnight.
Jing-wang: “……”
Jing-wang rubbed the center of his brows. So does this mean, Xiao Yu accepted him, but still
refused to absorb his essence?
He was fine with it, but would this end up affecting Xiao Yu somehow? The cultivation novels
always mentioned that one should be diligent with their studies. Xiao Yu right now…… if he
must speak honestly, was really fishing every three days and drying his net every two days.
Li Yu was afraid that Jing-wang might think he was being pretentious and hastily explained:
“It’s not that we can’t do it, but need to wait for a more appropriate time……”
Li Yu suddenly realized what kind of lascivious words he was saying and instantly covered his
own mouth. Cheeks flushed red, Li Yu blinked his eyes and pretended to be dumb.
Nevertheless, Jing-wang immediately understood: So it’s not a definite no……
“In any case, I said no, so it’s no!” Li Yu shamelessly snatched back the paper: “If you won’t
agree, then it’s better if we don’t get together.”
Jing-wang: “…….”
Jing-wang heard Li Yu say “we” and felt his heart swept away. After recovering, he quickly
snatched the paper back. Although being unable to have his essence absorbed was somewhat
regrettable, if he didn’t have Xiao Yu, that can’t even be considered anyways!
At a place where Jing-wang can’t see, Li Yu secretly made a victory sign with his hand.
Everyone all say that acting spoiled towards one’s boyfriend was very useful; looks like it’s true.
Jing-wang agreed to the first rule and continued to read down. The second rule: Don’t ask about
Li Yu’s whereabouts.
Jing-wang immediately understood this line. Xiao Yu seemed to only be able to maintain human
form for 2 hours. He needed to explain his reasoning for ‘disappearing” every time. Every time
Jing-wang watched Xiao Yu search for all sorts of excuses, which sounded so fake they hurt,
Jing-wang didn’t even have the heart to expose his lies.
No need to ask. Xiao Yu probably didn’t want to keep searching for excuses. Too troublesome.
Perfect lies weren’t easy to come up with.
Jing-wang nodded his head, which counted as agreeing to this rule as well. Then he looked at the
last line: Not allowed to get angry at Li Yu.
Jing-wang smiled. Xiao Yu was worrying too much. When has he gotten angry at Xiao Yu
before?
Jing-wang agreed to everything.
Li Yu said craftily: “There’s also one more. Your highness, you said before that you didn’t have
any concubine. Please continue to keep it this way, okay?”
In the original novel, Jing-wang wasn’t the type of person to do things half-heartedly. However,
the original plotline has been completely messed up. Chu YanYu was white outside, black
inside. What if Jing-wang was also a guy who’s fickle in love?
Although it wasn’t very possible, Li Yu definitely didn’t want any mishaps to occur in this
matter. Therefore, he decided to be firm. If Jing-wang dares to become a giant pig, then Li Yu
will break up with him!
However, he didn’t specifically write this rule down because this was something Jing-wang had
said himself. After all, it was already carved on the Jing estate walls. Li Yu felt like there was no
need to write it again and mess up the numbering of his three basic rules.
Therefore, in actuality, he was the one taking advantage of the situation again.
Jing-wang nodded his head without any hesitation.
“Then please remember these rules well, your highness~” Li Yu said with a grin: “Can you recite
them from memory?”
Jing-wang nodded once more. He gave the paper back to Li Yu, went to the table and pulled out
paper and brush.
Li Yu followed him over as well, rolled up his sleeve, and automatically prepared the ink for
him.
Jing-wang raised his head and glanced at Li Yu briefly. Considering Xiao Yu’s reading
comprehension, with a smile, he wrote a simple poem:
Spending the night is all up to you,
You can come and go as you please,
I won’t get angry with you,
In this life, I will only love you.
Li Yu was stupefied. He instantly put the ink stick aside. His highness was really too good.
Especially that last line!
Since he remembered everything, then next was… kiss, hug, and hold up high?
With an “ao,” Li Yu pounced over.
Surprised, Jing-wang caught him. Full of tenderness, the two slowly pressed their lips together.
Trying to use a lifetime of gentleness, as well as all of their passion, into this one kiss. Trying to
press each other into their own body, bones and flesh.
Jing-wang felt something licking him quickly across the lips. Opening his eyes, he saw Xiao Yu
currently smiling mischievously while also looking back at him.
“…….does it still hurt?” Li Yu touched his lips briefly.
With the misunderstanding before, Li Yu once bit down on Jing-wang’s lip and broke skin. Now,
he really wanted to make up for it.
Actually that… that thing, had a certain flavor. The curious fish baby wanted to give it a try.
Jing-wang was already his boyfriend now. French kiss was very normal.
Jing-wang realized what he meant and excitedly picked Li Yu up.
Li Yu: !!!
What the fck. I only want to French Kiss. What what what are you trying to do?
Heart palpating with fear, Li Yu was afraid that Jing-wang was already about to violate the rules
they had just agreed upon. However, Jing-wang only hugged him tightly for a while and then
carefully carried him onto the table. Then, Jing-wang leaned his face in and started kissing Li Yu
again.
Li Yu: “……”
Li Yu excitedly returned the kiss. As they kissed, he suddenly discovered. Jing-wang was a lot
taller than him. At first when they were kissing, he always needed to raise his head up; it wasn’t
very comfortable. Now that he was placed on the table, they were on the same level and it was
much more relaxing now.
Jing-wang was only trying to make him feel more comfortable……
Li Yu was suddenly enlightened. Although this person couldn’t speak, and sometimes to
understand the other, Li Yu had to keep guessing nonstop and making mistakes constantly. But
despite the inconvenience, Jing-wang’s pampering towards him has never changed.
Feeling both touched and warm, Li Yu tightly hugged the other around the neck, pressing his lips
delightedly against Jing-wang. Very quickly, he succumbed to the tenderness.
Like a Koala, Li Yu lazily clung to Jing-wang. Jing-wang gave him a yellow colored piece of
cloth.
Li Yu opened it for a look. This was the imperial edict written by the Emperor telling Jing-wang
to get an assignment from the Ministry of Works.
Li Yu was somewhat surprised. He remembered that this did occur in the original novel though.
However, it was later on when Jing-wang was vying against the 6th Prince for the throne. He
officially entered court politics by starting this job at the Ministry of Works. Right now though,
the 6th Prince was still recuperating from his injuries.
According to Li Yu’s observations, Jing-wang seemed like he didn’t have any plans to take over
the throne. Li Yu realized this was probably only the Emperor’s one-sided concern towards Jing-
wang.
The Jing-wang in this world will probably not face too many disasters. Li Yu can also attempt to
help him.
“This is a good thing. Congratulations, your highness.” Li Yu said with a smile. At the same
time, he didn’t really understand why Jing-wang wanted him to see the imperial edict.
The not very happy Jing-wang, who’s being sent off to work just after getting together with Xiao
Yu: “…….”
But I won’t be able to spend more time with you. Jing-wang couldn’t say this.
Li Yu thought for a moment and pretty much understood his meaning. He said with a smile:
“Since you have an assignment now, you have to do it well. I won’t go anywhere and will stay in
the estate to wait for you to come back. Once you receive your…… monthly salary, you can use
it to buy me a present, ok?”
Li Yu was full of encouraging words, imagining himself as a little house boyfriend, whose job
was to send his boyfriend off to work everyday while providing cheer and moral support.
Other than dating steadily, people had plenty of proper things to do, after all. Right now, Jing-
wang needed to work at the Ministry of Works. In the future, he needed to take over the throne.
Once he became the Emperor, he’d have to deal with the big politics stuff.
Not like Li Yu. Other than doing tasks, being a pet fish, and swimming around, he was extremely
idle. Almost like he entered an early life of retirement.
But he…… clearly was only 18 years old.
Li Yu scratched his nose. Why don’t he do his best and show off his capability to work as well
by making his boyfriend a bento full of love?
With Xiao Yu’s encouragement, Jing-wang gathered his energy and started reporting on time to
the Ministry of Works everyday.
The Ministry of Works was the last of six of Ministries. They’re mostly in charge of irrigation
and construction engineering.
Taking in consideration that Jing-wang couldn’t speak, the task that the Emperor gave Jing-wang
was to take charge of renovating Zhongcui Palace, which had burned in the fire.
Zhongcui Palace had a blueprint in storage anyways. To rebuild, one just needed to follow the
blueprint, so it’s really hard to make a mistake. Jing-wang had the title of a Wang as well; his
personality also helped him manage people well. Nevertheless, the Emperor was still worried
that Jing-wang might mess up on his first job and be unable to handle it. Therefore, he found
Jing-wang a helper. The assistant from the Ministry of Works, Zheng Jing, was a very capable
person. He already received the Emperor’s order ahead of time and was ready to aid Jing-wang
any time.
With this kind of arrangement, the Emperor really made it easy for Jing-wang.
When Jing-wang arrived at the Ministry of Works department, he first put down the huge bundle
that he was carrying by his side.
Assistant Zheng Jing came over with a smile to greet him respectfully. Zheng Jing has already
long heard of Jing-wang’s reputation and wanted to build a good connection with him. He
curiously asked: “What did your highness bring?”
Although Wang Xi often followed Jing-wang, according to regulations, he couldn’t enter the
hall. Jing-wang picked up a brush from the table and calmly wrote: “Lunch.”
Zheng Jing: “…….”
Zheng Jing smiled politely. So it was actually the wangye’s lunch. This bundle looked even
bigger than a wash bin. What kind of lunch did it hold?
However, seeing Jing-wang’s expressionless face, Zheng Jing knew that Jing-wang’s personality
was distant and cold. He probably wouldn’t like it if Zheng Jing continued asking. Therefore,
although Official Zheng was full of questions, he still didn’t ask anymore.
After Jing-wang finished writing the word “Lunch,” he paused. However, Zheng Jing didn’t
continue to ask; Jing-wang was somewhat dissatisfied. Under the word “lunch,” he deliberately
started another row and wrote in a slightly larger font, seriously taking note of every brush
stroke: “Made by my boyfriend.”
Zheng Jing: “……………….”
Zheng Jing asked with difficulty: “Boyfriend?”
Jing-wang nodded his head.
This was a vernacular slang from Xiao Yu’s hometown that he had told Jing-wang personally.
Xiao Yu said that, for them to be together like this, in his place this was called “dating,” and that
Xiao Yu was his “boyfriend” and he was also Xiao Yu’s “boyfriend.”
Jing-wang liked this title. He wondered which Immortal mountain the carp demon came from.
Was Xiao Yu treating him like family right now? Jing-wang felt very warm inside.
Zheng Jing thought for quite a while, but still didn’t know what boyfriend meant. He can only
consult Jing-wang: “Can I ask your highness, what does boyfriend mean?”
Jing-wang narrowed his eyes at him. He couldn’t let Zheng Jing know about the Immortal
mountain that the carp demon lived in, but Jing-wang had another explanation.
It was all Xiao Yu anyways. Jing-wang wrote: “The future wangfei.”
Zheng Jing’s face color changed again and again. Jing-wang had a wangfei? How come he never
heard about this?
Oh. So it’s the future wangfei…… no matter what, this was easier to understand than boyfriend.
He– how should he respond here?
Zheng Jing stammered a reply: “Then I really have to…… congratulate you, your highness.”
Jing-wang finally nodded his head in satisfaction.
Zheng Jing secretly wiped off a handful of sweat. Then, he saw Jing-wang pull out something
from his spacious sleeve and put it on the table.
This was a transparent crystal bottle. Inside, a silver and gold fish was currently swimming
around happily.
Zheng Jing: “……”
For a second, Zheng Jing thought he had made a mistake. Swallowing his saliva, he asked with
uncertainty: “Did your highness bring a Koi?”
Jing-wang proudly wrote: “My pet fish.”
Zheng Jing: “…….”
Why would someone bring a fish to work? Zheng Jing can’t understand it at all.
When he saw Jing-wang pull out a jade box that held fish food and started feeding the fish peach
blossom cookies, Zheng Jing was completely speechless.
At this time, Li Yu, who was eating the peach blossom cookies, was also raging internally: He
really got tricked by the scoundrel. What send his boyfriend off to work? Why did this big
scoundrel bring fish to work!?
Wasn’t he supposed to be a good little house boyfriend who stayed home and watched the
house?
Right now, it has become accompanying and dating Jing-wang while in human form, making
love bentos; and accompanying Jing-wang to work while in fish form. QQQ. But he wanted to
live a pampered and spoiled, life of retirement!
