The Command to Pamper the Husband - Chapter 32

Wan Xi straightened her small waist and declared firmly, “What are you looking at? Aren’t you the eldest young madam of the Song family?”

Daring to shout at a prince like that, her Wan Xi was really bold!

However, one’s own servant must be protected by oneself!

Fearing that Wan Xi might be blamed by Shen Yue, Song Jin quickly pulled Wan Xi behind her, standing tall and proud as she looked at Shen Yue. “That’s right, I am your husband now! You should know the Three Obediences and Four Virtues!”

Shen Yue, with a dark expression, glared at the much shorter Song Jin. He took a step forward and pinched Song Jin’s chin.

Being so close, Shen Yue could smell a faint milk fragrance lingering around him.

What?!

How could this effeminate man smell like milk?!

Originally intending to scold Song Jin, Shen Yue was now filled with disgust.

His eyes swept over Song Jin’s delicate white neck. Shen Yue quickly let go as if he had touched something repulsive, wiped his hand on his clothes in disgust, and stormed off.

Song Jin…

She nudged Lu Zhan’s arm. “Is your master crazy?”

Lu Zhan…

To be honest, ever since they got married, he also felt his master was a bit off.

If his master wasn’t off, why would he poke Song Jin’s face with a stick that morning?

But his master needed to be protected by him!

With a respectful smile, Lu Zhan said, “Perhaps His Highness is in a bad mood. Young Master, please don’t take it to heart.”

“Why is he in a bad mood?”

Lu Zhan…

Getting married to a wild boar and having a monkey grab your crotch, how could anyone be in a good mood?!

But could he say that?

Not only could he not say it, but he also had to forget it immediately.

Lu Zhan shook his head, “The thoughts of His Highness, I do not know.”

Song Jin pouted, “Getting married to a wild boar and having a monkey grab your crotch, of course, he’d be in a bad mood!”

Lu Zhan…

Shen Yue, who was walking down the mountain with a sullen face, almost stumbled.

This effeminate man was truly detestable!

Wan Xi’s eyes widened as she looked at Song Jin, and after a moment of reaction, her eyes sparkled.

She rushed forward. “Young Master, what’s the story about the monkey grabbing the crotch?”

Shen Yue stopped in his tracks, glaring at Song Jin with a fierce look full of warnings: Just try saying a word!

Song Jin immediately grinned at Shen Yue and ran towards him with a cute smile.

“Your Highness, tell me about the jade pendant.”

Shen Yue really wanted to strangle this effeminate man.

Why couldn’t he talk properly like a man?!

What kind of nonsense was this!

Seeing her young master leave, Wan Xi grabbed Lu Zhan’s arm, “What’s the story?”

Her face was full of curiosity.

Lu Zhan…

“Honestly, for the kindness you’ve shown with a drumstick, I can’t repay it with just this story. How about I kill someone for you instead?”

Wan Xi gave Lu Zhan a sidelong glance, “Why would I need someone killed! I’m a good citizen! Just tell me the story, I really want to know!”

Shen Yue’s fierce gaze shot past Song Jin’s head, glaring at Lu Zhan.

Lu Zhan shivered, immediately tapped his toes, and flew to the front to help the guards pull savages.

Wan Xi glared at Lu Zhan, “For the sake of your cooking skills, I’ll let you off this time!”

Song Jin shifted her gaze to Shen Yue, “Your Highness?”

Shen Yue took a deep breath.

“The jade pendant belongs to my benefactor.”

“How do you know the jade pendant in the savage leader’s hand is your benefactor’s? Can’t there be identical ones in this world?”

She had one just like it in her hand!

Shen Yue shook his head.

“Mass-produced jade pendants can be identical, but my benefactor’s jade pendant is unique.”

“Oh? How so?” Song Jin asked curiously.

Shen Yue tilted his head to look at Song Jin, “What does this have to do with you?”

Song Jin grinned innocently, “Curious, just curious, like Wan Xi is curious about the monkey grabbing the crotch.”

Shen Yue…

He gritted his teeth and glared at Song Jin.

This effeminate man dared to threaten him.

Song Jin smiled innocently, eyes sparkling: Yes, I’m threatening you!

Shen Yue…

“The jade pendant was dropped once and has a crack. There’s no way there are two identical cracks in the world.”

Song Jin rolled her eyes.

So that’s it.

“Besides the crack, is there another identical one?”

“The jade pendant was part of a pair, so there’s naturally another identical one.”

“Was the other jade pendant dropped too?”

Shen Yue shook his head, “No, it wasn’t.”

“Then, was the other jade pendant lost too?”

Shen Yue’s patience had run out. He grabbed Song Jin’s thin wrist, speaking in a low voice, “Don’t test my patience!”

Song Jin stared at Shen Yue with innocent eyes.

Then…

The dagger hidden on Shen Yue’s calf unsheathed itself.

The dagger flew out of the sheath, stopping precisely at Shen Yue’s throat.

Shen Yue’s face turned even darker.

Song Jin grinned, “Your Highness, you should be more patient. Being too irritable is not good for a young person.”

Shen Yue…

What could he do?!

This effeminate man could control weapons.

Now, even if he wanted to strangle him, he couldn’t!

But not strangling him was… infuriating!

Shen Yue clenched his fists, pushing Song Jin’s arm away.

Song Jin smiled softly, and the dagger fell to the ground.

Shen Yue reached out and caught it.

Before he could steady the dagger, a loud bark echoed.

Woof!

Yuan Bao’s fur bristled as he glared at Shen Yue with his sharp teeth showing.

The moment Shen Yue met Yuan Bao’s gaze, the dog pounced at him.

Scaring Lu Zhan and Shen Yue’s guards into rushing over.

Suddenly attacked by the dog, Shen Yue instinctively stabbed  Yuan Bao.

Song Jin couldn’t control the dagger in time. Without thinking, she lunged forward and hugged Shen Yue from behind.

In the blink of an eye, it was a matter of speed.

Yuan Bao won the speed contest, biting off a piece of Shen Yue’s clothes, then looked at him disdainfully before jumping to Wan Xi’s side.

Standing firm, Yuan Bao stared at Shen Yue, eyes glinting: I warn you, be mean to Song Jin again, and next time I’ll bite more than your clothes!

Shen Yue was about to explode!

Married to a wild boar, crotch grabbed by a monkey, threatened by an effeminate man, and now bitten by a dog!

What did he do to deserve this streak of bad luck!

Lu Zhan and the guards rushed over, seeing Yuan Bao didn’t actually harm their master, they were at a loss.

Should they retreat since the dog just tore his clothes?

Should they avenge their master by fighting the dog? But the dog was too fierce.

Moreover, Song Jin could control weapons. If he teamed up with the dog, they might end up hurting their master more.

What to do?

Shen Yue, with a dark face, glared at Lu Zhan and the guards, “Did the savages leave the mountain on their own?”

Lu Zhan and the guards shivered, quickly turning back to pull the raft.

As they left, Shen Yue looked down at his torn clothes and at his hands.

White and delicate hands, one might think they belonged to a girl.

The thought of being hugged by this effeminate man made him feel worse than being bitten by a dog.

“Young Master, can’t bear to let go? Is it appropriate for two men to hug like this?”

Song Jin…
