Quick Transmigration The Prodigal Son

Chapter 8

The Eldest Young Master's Gentle Wife (8)

After dinner, Jiang Zhe said goodbye to his parents, before instructing Shui Gen: "Take Younger Brother Ming to the guest room to rest."

Shui Gen: "Yes, Eldest Young Master." 

Li Ming: "Then, brother-in-law, big sister, Ill be going." 

Jiang Zhe: "En." 

After sending Li Ming away, Jiang Zhe brought Li Cai Wei and slowly walked back to his courtyard. 

Following behind them, Cui Xi was extremely anxious. The Eldest Young Master has already behaved so obviously, why was the Young Mistress still so dense about it. 

The two of them walked in tandem, not looking like a couple at all. 

Several times, she wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere. But every time she opened her mouth, she swallowed her words back down. 

To put it bluntly, she is only a servant of the Jiang family. It is only thanks to the grace of the Young Mistress, that she doesnt discipline her usually. If she rashly opened her mouth and made the Eldest Young Master unhappy, even the Young Mistress cant save her. 

After a short distance, Cui Xi was very emotionally tired. Finally sending the two masters back to their courtyard, she made up an excuse to leave. 

Li Cai Wei stood in the same place, looking at the man in front of her. She thought about the words to use, and carefully asked: "Why did you think of buying gifts today?" 

Jiang Zhe's hand that was undoing his buttons twitched, and then replied in a nonchalant tone: "I just happened to have time." 

Li Cai Wei: "So that is why." 

A moment of disappointment flashed across her face, but it was soon covered up. A gentle voice sounded slowly: "About Younger Brother Mings issues, thank you." 

Jiang Zhe: "En." 

Silence once again descended on the two people. 

As if looking for death, Cui Xi dared to bring the water in at this time: QAQ 

Cui Xi: "Eldest Young Master, please wash up." 

Jiang Zhe didnt respond. 

Li Cai Wei quietly watched the man wash up, went to bed, slept, and never said anything extra to her during the whole process.

She bowed her head and laughed at herself. 

Li Cai Wei: "I will go rest in the side room." 

Jiang Zhe did not stop her. 

While Cui Xi sullenly retreats, the system was so angry it almost exploded. 

System: "Are you still a man? Towards such a gentle woman, you act cold sometimes and hot at other times. Doesnt your conscience hurt?" 

Jiang Zhe laid on bed, his eyes closed, "No. Also, physiologically, I am indeed a man." 

System:  

System: "You are so capable, you must have been holding back just now." 

Jiang Zhe: "No need."  

The system lingered on the edge of the explosion. 

System: "Lord God, I really can't stand it. I don't want to be bound this sort of cold-hearted host." 

Jiang Zhe's heart missed a beat, but he pretended to be calm: "After unbinding, can you still save Lin Xuan?"

The system gave a cold laugh, and violently erupted, yelling at Jiang Zhe: "Save? Save, my ass! People are standing in front of you, alive, but you dont even know how to cherish them. Your mind only remembers that body. Why dont you go back and hug her corpse to get through life, you necrophile, sick pervert." 

Jiang Zhe:  

However, having gotten the information he wanted, it doesn't matter if he was harshly scolded a few lines. 

Jiang Zhe entered dreamland happily.

The system was still sulking by itself, persistently calling out "Slag Man", "Cheater" and "Psychopath" until the middle of the night. When it had scolded enough, it reacted belatedly. It seemed to have, maybe, revealed something unacceptable. 

System: The smile gradually becomes horrified jpg. 

Ah ah ah ah! Jiang Zhe, you beast in human clothing, black-bellied scum. You were actually evil enough to make such vicious words come out from the mouth of such a cute system. 

If the Lord God knew, it will definitely be thrown away and rebuilt. 

System:

The system ran away shamefully. It decided that unless the host is dying, it will no longer take the initiative to appear. 

Where did he go wrong, to give up his cute extra-terrestrial dimension to exchange feelings with this scum man. 

The next day, the sky was barely bright when Jiang Zhe got up. He called Cui Xi, handing her a money bag and a note. 

Jiang Zhe: "When the Young Mistress wakes up, give this to her." 

Cui Xi felt the weight in the money bag, and was shocked. "Eldest Young Master, this, this is too important. Its better for you to personally give it to the young lady."

Jiang Zhe instantly stiffened, before regaining his wits, "I am in a hurry. Ill go first." 

Cui Xi: "Eldest Young Master, Eldest Young Master, Eldest" 

Cui Xi stretched her neck, determined she could no longer see him, before lowering her head in desolation: "Eldest Young Master is too much. He clearly arranged everything for Young Mistress, but why doesnt he tell her, always turning a cold face towards the Young Mistress." 

As a servant, even she was anxious. 

Cui Xi: "Fortunately, I am clever. I can just praise him a bit more in front of the young lady." 

However, Cui Xi was quickly slapped in the face. The Young Mistress took the money bag, but only calmly uttered an En sound 

It was so much money!

Cui Xi: I don't understand the thoughts of the two masters. 

Cui Xi was stunned, and sloppily handed over the note that Jiang Zhe gave. 

If money can't make the Young Mistresss face brighten, what was the use of such a note? 

Li Cai Wei suspiciously took the note and opened it: Compared to a dress, Id rather see you wearing a cheongsam. 

Jiang Zhe. 

Li Cai Wei's heartbeat increased quickly. She read the note again and again incredulously, making sure she didnt see wrong. The writing was really Jiang Zhe's. 

Still, she was skeptical: "This note is given by the Eldest Young Master?" 

Cui Xi: "Yes, the Eldest Young Master personally gave it to me, asking me to pass it to Young Mistress when she wakes." 

Li Cai Wei: "You don't know what is written inside?" 

Cui Xi: "Eldest Young Master prohibited me from seeing. And I don't know how to read, even if I accidentally saw it, I cant recognise the letters, heh heh." 

Cui Xi rubbed her chin, embarrassed. . 

Li Cai Wei: "Im sorry, I-" 

Cui Xi: "What is Young Mistress saying? Cui Xi is only a servant, for a servant to not know how to read is very common." 

Li Cai Wei didnt miss the downcast look in Cui Xis eyes, thought about it and said: "If you don't mind the lowly learnings of this scholar, I can teach you how to read during your free time every day.

Cui Xi: "Really?" 

Cui Xi excitedly hopped up and down, "Heavens, Young Mistress, you are so good."

TN: My take away from this chapter is that apparently theres many words for necrophile. I initially translated it to be necromaniac, but I wasnt sure if that was a proper word and wow, there are so many words to describe a love for dead bodies.
