The Path of the Cannon Fodder's Counterattack

Ch-46

Ling Xiao had fainted and once again woke up.

His whole body limp and his mouth dry as the place where he was laying, though soft, was shaking and he could feel it faintly swaying. The swaying did not make him feel any better, but luckily his body was cushioned by the soft mattress, which lightened some of the burden.

He tried to laboriously support his body up, but doing so caused him to feel an extreme pain, as if his body was being crushed. That embarrassing location behind was also scorching, a suspicious liquid flowing out.

He looked distractedly as the scenes from yesterday night appeared one by one in his mind and he shook, his face burning hot.

In the end, he was still... by the Emperor...

Ling Xiao lowered his head and thought of last night. He naturally remembers that his secret was exposed to the Emperor, however he was unclear on how the Emperor will handle it now.

While he was processing that, he raised his head to inspect his surroundings. Everything before his eyes was unfamiliar, and the space he was in was narrow. This seemed to be... a carriage?

Then, the swaying Ling Xiao felt was the carriage's movement?

Ling Xiao was taken aback, where was he then?

Whose carriage is this? And where were they going?

Ling Xiao became even more confused as he supported himself up. As he wanted to raise the curtain, which blocked the outside, so he can take a look, the tip of a black shoe suddenly appeared under it.

Then, the curtain was pushed aside.

Ling Xiao returned to the soft mattress, since among everyone he knew, only the Emperor loved to wear black.

Concluding in a few moments who the person behind the curtain must be, Ling Xiao lowered his head, without delay, and respectfully called out, "Your Majesty."

"Heh..." A laugh came from behind the curtain and then a person entered with a smile.

"I am not your Emperor."

With a voice that held some laughing and teasing, somewhat familiar yet it was not the Emperor. Ling Xiao went blank and raised his head to take a look. The one he found in front of him was Fu Yujun, dressed entirely in dark clothing and he asked, startled, "How is it you?"

"What's wrong? You're really disappointed that I'm not your Emperor?" Fu Yujun arrived before Ling Xiao and appeared quite tired as he leaned against the soft mattress.

Ling Xiao shook his head, frowning as he said, "Just really surprised."

Fu Yujun smiled and shook his head as he heard his words. He bent down to remove his shoes and lied down within the mattress. Startled, Ling Xiao stood up like he was shying away.

Ling Xiao's appearance was like a frightened kitten, jumping three steps away. The result though, was that because he had done it too suddenly, he overlooked the pain his body was in and on the third step, grimaced and clenched his teeth to endure the ache.

Fu Yujun laughed with a "pfft", "I say, why are you so nervous? Don't tell me you think I would do something? Or perhaps you want me to do something to you?"

Fu Yujun propped his head as he lied on the mattress, staring at Ling Xiao as if he harbors evil intentions. His eyes were full of excitement at the novelty and Ling Xiao went stiff at being stared so much, his face black.

Fu Yujun engrossed himself in watching him, the corner of his mouth maintained an upward curve, "Although I do not love men, but if you want..."

"I don't want!" Ling Xiao directly interrupted Fu Yujun's words, making him raise an eyebrow as he continued to speak, "Can Your Highness explain to me what is the situation right now?"
