A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

Chapter 137 The Supervisor's Revenge

Ye Xiao finally admitted it; he knew his godfather was serious.

Regardless of what tricks that woman used, the fact remains that she has captured her godfather's heart.

Sure enough, with a stepmother comes a stepfather; his ten years of father-son relationship couldn't compete with her pillow talk.

Ye Xiao used to dare to talk back because he was spoiled by Xiao Yuan, but now that he has seen the situation clearly, he knows to back down.

Despite being a child who grew up by his side, Xiao Yuan was cold to outsiders but treated Ye Shier differently.

Even though he was still angry, Xiao Yuan didn't lay a hand on the kid when he saw that the kid had a broken leg and his face was swollen like a pig's head.

However, there are countless ways to vent anger, and beating someone up is not the only one.

Nowadays, Chief Supervisor Xiao has been led astray by his wife, and his methods of tormenting people have become increasingly perverse.

Only the person who gets pricked by the needle knows the pain; sophisticated revenge often requires only the simplest form of retaliation.

Since you can't empathize with him, then try to understand his feelings. You're not the only one who's trying to create a romantic pairing.

It's against the natural order for a son to interfere in his father's private affairs, but it's perfectly natural for a father to manage his son's affairs.

Xiao Yuan sent someone to the Eastern Depot to summon He Zhang, a capable commander and a devoted lover whose heart had been broken by Ye Xiao.

He Zhang was born into an official family; he was wealthy, handsome, and exceptionally talented. He was a legitimate scholar who had passed the imperial examinations.

He passed the provincial examination at the age of seventeen and, if things had gone according to plan, he would have been able to pass the imperial examination in his twenties and become an official.

In an era where a thirty-year-old is considered old and a fifty-year-old is considered young, this is undoubtedly a chosen one, destined for great things.

But He Zhang, who had just passed the imperial examination, fell head over heels for Ye Xiao and abandoned his studies to practice martial arts and join the Eastern Depot.

Those who pass the imperial examinations at a young age are undoubtedly intelligent and persevering. He Zhang was exceptionally talented, and even if he had chosen to pursue martial arts instead of literature, he would still have been among the best.

Eunuchs are only physically persecuted, but their sexual orientation remains the same. Ye Xiao cannot be said to be male, but his preferences are definitely female.

After He Zhang discovered that Ye Xiao didn't like men, he stayed by Ye Xiao's side as a friend, carefully concealing his true feelings so that no one would find out.

It's just that love is something that's really hard to hide.

He Zhang was excessively kind to Ye Xiao, even risking his life to protect him several times.

Even if Ye Xiao was slow to realize it, he would eventually notice and specifically contacted Xiao Yuan to separate the two of them.

The reason Xiao Yuan didn't suspect Ye Xiao's feelings for Xu Qinglan was because he thought the boy was going to be transferred to Nanshan Temple to avoid He Zhang.

Given Xiao Yuan's character, any man who covets his adopted son, who has only recently come of age, is practically asking for death.

But this congratulatory letter was too good, so good that even Supervisor Xiao couldn't bear to criticize it, and so good that even the arrogant and domineering Ye Twelve could only avoid it.

She did like Ye Xiao, but her feelings remained within the bounds of propriety, and she never overstepped any boundaries.

Even after Ye Xiao showed his dislike, he deliberately kept his distance. When the two were trapped in the dilapidated temple on a rainy night, he would rather stand outside in the rain than step into the temple.

He Zhang is actually quite good-looking.

In terms of looks, Xiao Yuan is a 7 out of 10, while Ye Xiao is at most a 7.5.

Both of them were handsome, but Ye Xiao's peach blossom eyes were more attractive than Xiao Yuan's sinister snake eyes.

But He Zhang is different. To be modest, he's at least a 9 out of 10. With his sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, tall and elegant figure, he's undeniably handsome.

Especially those eyes that look at dogs with such deep affection, when they steal a pitiful glance at Ye Xiao, it tugged at the hearts of countless people.

Moreover, not only is he good-looking, but he is also very capable. In just two years, he rose to the rank of commander, and he could handle any case with ease.

In other words, Ye Xiao wasn't a girl, otherwise Chief Supervisor Xiao might have actually agreed to the marriage.

Xiao Yuan was not one to meddle and never interfered in Ye Xiao's private affairs.

But this kid just had to mess with me, and giving him a beating isn't in Chief Supervisor Xiao's nature.

I'm already married, and you're still trying to force me into marriage. So it's not too much for me, as your father, to help my bachelor son find a wife, is it?

Seeing He Zhang enter his room, Ye Xiao's hair stood on end, and he looked at Xiao Yuan with a pleading expression.

"Father..."

Xiao Yuan sneered, "Now that you've injured your leg and can't move around easily, He Zhang is very attentive, so it's good to have him take care of you."

You're not a child anymore; having someone who cares about you will put your godfather at ease.

In terms of appearance, background, talent, ability, and even sincerity, He Zhang is better than anyone else.

Twelve, don't be ungrateful.

Xiao Douzi had already told He Zhang the whole story on the way.

He also specifically emphasized that the opportunity had been given by the Supervisor, and whether or not you could seize it and take down Young Master Ye depended on your own abilities.

He Zhang hadn't expected such a good thing. His heart was burning with excitement as he quickly planned out the next two, three, four, and five steps before even reaching the governor's mansion.

He knew this opportunity was hard-won, and if he couldn't seize it this time, it would probably be even harder in the future.

She's just an old woman. What makes a palace maid who has all the advantages of timing, location, and people, yet still can't win the favor of the Eunuch, have the right to compete with him?

Xiao Yuan summoned He Zhang not only to make Ye Xiao empathize with his mistakes, but also to use He Zhang's intelligence to sow discord between Twelve and Xu Qinglan.

Qinglan has always been petty and calculating. Although Xiao Yuan dislikes her, he treats her fairly well out of consideration for their mother-son relationship.

But standards are inherently different depending on one's status.

He could accept a silly, cunning cousin, but he couldn't accept having a wife like this.

So even though someone tried to match Xu Qinglan with him, knowing her background, he didn't accept.

Xu Qinglan still doesn't understand that the reason she doesn't get Xiao Yuan's favor is because she misunderstood her persona.

She had doubted his appearance, his identity, and even Xiao Yuan's sexual orientation, but she never doubted her own personality.

Her personality and character aren't necessarily bad; they just happen to hit all of Xiao Yuan's sore spots.

Chief Supervisor Xiao doesn't care about good or bad people, but he hates hypocrites the most, and he has a sharp eye for them.

Xu Qinglan's filial piety towards her adoptive parents, her flattery towards Xiao Ling, and her thoughtfulness towards Ye Xiao all seem contrived. It's no wonder Xiao Yuan would like her.

Xiao Yuan was even more disgusted by Xu Qinglan's feigned gentleness and kindness in winning over Twelve and using this foolish boy to fight for her.

He wasn't encouraging Ye Xiao to be gay, but if he had to choose between He Zhang and Xu Qinglan, he would rather choose He Zhang.

At least He Zhang was sincere and took care of her in every way, not to mention that he was willing to take a knife for Twelve, which made him far superior to Xu Qinglan.

Ye Xiao couldn't bring himself to slander He Zhang's deep affection, but being moved was one thing, and being able to accept it was another.

When Ye Xiao thought He Zhang was just a friend, he opened his heart to him and talked about everything, even revealing his vague feelings of love for Xu Qinglan.

But when he learned that He Zhang liked him, all those feelings turned into a burden.

Even he himself admitted that He Zhang was perfect in every way except for his gender.

Even if he likes Xu Qinglan, he can't guarantee he won't fall for He Zhang if she's really a girl.

Unfortunately, no matter how much you say, it's useless. He Zhang is a man, and he was a man before he lost his manhood.

Now this guy with a penis, someone who's interested in him, wants to move into his room.

It was summer, and he was still dressed in light clothing, and his legs were immobile. His godfather's move was truly ruthless.

Ye Xiao looked at Xiao Yuan pitifully, "Godfather, um... Godmother said you should sleep with me."

You've brought all my bedding; my son is waiting for you to teach him how to be a good person.

This time, Supervisor Xiao's smile seemed much more genuine.

"People can't teach you everything, but you can learn something from experience. Big principles are useless; you'll understand once you try.

After saying that, Xiao Yuan picked up his small blanket and pillow.

"Let He Zhang sleep with you. I'm going to sleep on the floor in front of Madam's house and I don't have time to serve you."

"You little brat, if it weren't for the fact that I'd invested ten years' worth of resources, killing you outright would be such a waste; I'd really want to beat you to death."

He Zhang smiled: Thank you for your kindness, Chief Supervisor!

Ye Xiaoerkang: I was wrong, Godfather, love me again!
