Chapter 29 - Distressed

Chapter 29 - Distressed


Yu Tang stood beside the bed for half a minute, fully blanked out. What did he just see?


Perhaps feeling hot, that pair of fair, slender legs poked out from the quilt, exposing white boxers. The boxers with excellent elasticity, wrapped up that elegantly contoured area…


Unable to help his Adam’s apple from bobbing, Yu Tang shifted his gaze from that captivating area, slowly sitting down on the bedside, a single hand bracing against the side of the pillow. Looking at the fellow that was dead asleep, he unhurriedly reached out, poking that face that was rosy with sleep.


“Mm…” Song Xiao raised his hand, wanting to drive away the guy disturbing his sleep, and was caught by Yu Tang without even looking, who held it in his hand to stroke.


This touch, startled both of them.


Originally delicate and smooth skin became coarse gauze, so Yu Tang promptly raised that hand before his eyes to examine carefully. It was only five in the morning right now, the sky hadn’t brightened, so the room was somewhat dark, but the snow white gauze still stung his eyes.


Because his injury was touched, Song Xiao was suddenly awakened from the pain. “Your Majesty?”


“How did this happen?” Yu Tang’s voice was somewhat glacial.


“Scalded.” Song Xiao wanted to withdraw his hand. “How’d you come back?”


“Who scalded?” Yu Tang didn’t intend to let him off, his grasp on that wrist not loosening, undoing the gauze, wanting to look.


Song Xiao blinked. Saying that he had scalded, wouldn’t a normal person’s response be ‘how could you be this careless’? As expected of an emperor’s thoughts, he instantly could think of secretly harming.


While speaking, the gauze had already been unwrapped by Yu Tang. Turning on the bedside lamp, the wound appeared clearly in front of his eyes. After the blisters were pricked open, that layer of skin came off, exposing the pink meat inside. Even though it was a few small dots, it was still a ghastly sight.


Within a glance, it was obvious that this wound wasn’t scalded by himself. It was probably the splatter of a splash of boiling water or hot oil. Yu Tang’s eyes were filled with killing intent, single-handedly grabbing Song Xiao’s jaw. “Zhen will ask you once more, who scalded?” If you speak out, zhen will tear them from limb to limb, if you don’t, you can just wait to receive punishment.


Song Xiao was stimulated into a shudder by his aggressive eyes and glacial voice. The implied meaning within those words made him suddenly generate a somewhat complaining urge, unexpectedly blurting out, “Song Zheng.”


After saying this, Song Xiao immediately felt a little embarrassed, and took advantage of the emperor’s loosening hand to pull his head away. “Don’t worry about this, I have my own counter-measures.”


Yu Tang didn’t say a word, rewrapping his hand properly. Turning off the bedside lamp and taking off his coat, he patted Song Xiao’s butt, indicating for him to sleep a little further in.


“Why aren’t you sleeping in your…” Song Xiao wanted to say sleeping in your bed, only then did he remember, he himself was sleeping on other people’s bed, and immediately became motionless.


Yu Tang expressionlessly looked at him.


Cough…” Song Xiao dryly coughed, obediently shifted inwards and buried his face on the pillow. He’s done for, done for! Secretly sleeping on the emperor’s bed, and was even discovered by him, he lost face and lost it big!


Yu Tang laid down while wearing a blouse, dug out the empress, who was burying his head onto the pillow with all his strength, and embraced him. “If there’s something the matter, tell me. You still aren’t familiar with this era.”


Song Xiao pursed his lips, slowly gripping the hand Yu Tang wrapped around his waist, and nodded imperceptibly.


Yu Tang, snug against his nape, naturally felt it, and faintly ticked the corner of his lips.


They lazed in bed for ten minutes, then it was time to get up. Yu Tang wouldn’t allow Song Xiao to come into contact with water, passing over a properly wrung out towel for him to wipe his face, a toothbrush that had toothpaste squeezed out, and personally fastened the buttons on his blouse.


“I- I can button it myself…” Song Xiao’s face was red, promptly preventing the emperor when he wanted to help him tuck his blouse into his pants. He had only scalded a few blisters, not lost his hand.


However, the tyrannical emperor would definitely not listen to him, still delightedly putting on clothes for him, and then pulled his uninjured hand to go out to take part in the flag raising ceremony.


Yu Tang had hurried back because he had a speech during today’s flag raising ceremony, to announce the establishment of the student union, at the same time arranging the coming week’s work.


Because the head of the academic affairs saw that Yu Tang was competent, they had thrown all the tasks that could be shirked to the student union, such as the matter of this morning’s speech.


Yu Tang looked at the script handed over by the Propaganda Dept. head, that is, the High Minister of the Ministry of Publicity. He directly skipped over the superfluous words of ‘Honorable teachers, dear fellow students, I wish you a good morning’, and took the microphone to straightforwardly declare, “Sheng Meng High School’s student union had already been formally established last week. From today onwards, each and every role of the student union will immediately begin…”


The emperor was as good as his word. The Ministry of War began to inspect the morning run on that day, while the Ministry of Justice will inspect the discipline during the nighttime self-study. And the Ministry of Publicity’s recent tasks were the heaviest, striving every day to produce the announcement board, make a banner. Very soon, an article of news flooded the entire school campus in the form of posters.


‘Sheng Meng Middle Will Come To Exchange As Of 11th Of October’


The school attached a lot of importance towards this matter, after all, their middle school will be their main supply of students in the future. They had to make them sincerely experience the beauty of their high school, only then would they spend a large amount of money to come attend.


Yu Tang looked at the course drafted by the vice-president in his hand, then took a pen to circle a few spots. “Just a tour, too monotonous.”


“Setting up a program at the last moment is already too late.” The vice-president found things a little hard to manage. Their student union had just been set up, it was already the end of August when the school gave them this assignment. Soon, it would be November’s long break, so who would still have the mood to rehearse for a program?


“Look for students of Special Classes, performing an opening dance will do.” Yu Tang spun the pen in his hand, his pupils dark. “The main importance is to have the middle school perform.”


Abruptly receiving a notice from the high school requesting a performance program, the leading teacher was furious, as there was definitely not enough time if they prepared at this time. But the other party said it was a mutual exchange, so they couldn’t lose face, and could only find the students that had performed outstandingly during the summer graduation evening party, and have them perform the program once more.


“Go to high school?” Song Zheng’s eyes gleamed, and readily agreed. She had been cultivated by Qiu Mingyan to learn all kinds of dances since she was young. The solo performance of demonstrating her talent during last year’s graduation evening party was what had attracted 4G’s attention. This time’s exchange didn’t have her taking part at first, but because of the performance, the first person the teacher had thought of was her.


The new name list quickly came out and was reported to Sheng Meng High. When Yu Tang saw the name ‘Song Zheng’ on the list, he nodded in satisfaction, and handed it over to the Ministry of Works to make name tags.


After determining these few matters, he then didn’t care much about the matters of the student union. He had no interest in these kinds of things in the first place, so he threw everything to the vice president. He had more important things to do.


The hype about the Pudding gongzi abruptly died down, as Dari Media had withdrawn all their marketing drafts. Even though there were still some people mentioning it in the forums, it was quickly covered by other posts.


The internet was just beginning to become mainstream, so there were a lot of internet celebrities appearing. These people usually relied on comedic acts to become extremely popular for a time, then disappeared very quickly. Therefore, so long as no one brought up the matter of ‘Pudding Gongzi’ for a period of time, it would be forgotten by everyone.


“Eldest young master, what’s this?” Yu Dan phoned Yu Tang, his tone of voice somewhat bad. Dari Media was his company, in order to curry favor with the main family, he had used that sort of price to sell the shares to Yu Fu. Basically, the shares were considered gratuitous shares, but he never expected that they would still treat the matters of the company so nonchalantly.


If it was Yu Fu managing, then it would be whatever, but for this proposal to actually come from an underage, ignorant child, it was truly treating his company too lightly!


“Father has already given me the entirety of the shares to Dari Media. The procedure for the ownership transferment will be done by this week.” Yu Tang stood at the balcony of the dormitory, holding a hot cup of tea.


“What?” The cigarette in Yu Dan’s hand trembled for a moment, almost burning his hand. It seems that this doting love Yu Fu had towards this eldest son had already exceeded his estimations, to treat a company’s shares like a toy, saying that he’ll give then really gives. “Then, Pudding’s proposal…”


When they were young, he and Song Zicheng had grudges between them. Nowadays, he had finally flourished with great difficulty, so naturally he had to retaliate back. The plan about Song Xiao was also part of it. If this was about Yu Tang newly entering the company and wishing to establish power, Yu Dan hoped that he could change to another direction.


Yu Tang put down the cup in his hand and looked at Song Xiao in the room, holding the computer and looking very earnest, and spoke with a chilly tone, “If you want to retaliate against Song Zicheng, I don’t care, but do not bring disaster to his children. If there is a day where you commit an offense towards this family, I’ll have three of your son’s fingers, what do you think?”


After hanging up, Yu Tang went into the room and Song Xiao, who was sitting on the bed, lifted his head to look at him. “Your Majesty, the news about me on the internet is gone.”


“En.” Yu Tang lowered his head to meet his eyes. Looking from this angle, Song Xiao’s eyes reflected the fluorescent light, and was glistening, especially adorable.


“You did it?” Song Xiao looked at Yu Tang’s expression, noticing that he didn’t have the slightest degree of surprise. Song Xiao recalled that last weekend, he had said he would deal with it and he didn’t need to worry about it, and immediately understood.


Yu Tang bent over, slowly getting closer, a single hand propped against the wall and trapping Song Xiao in the crook of his arm. “Yes, how does the Empress intend to express gratitude to zhen?”
