The Unemployed AssassinCh9 - Easter egg: Zhang Yuan (END)

Chapter 9: Easter egg: Zhang Yuan

— cDSNog

The gossip master Zhang Yuan accidentally discovered another juicy news. This one could be said to be the masterpiece in his gossiper career: their prince’s consort was actually a bodyguard in the residence and also his colleague – Zhao Feishuang.

During his shift last night, he saw the prince holding hands with Feishuang as they walked out, both of them wearing big red attires and bowed to heaven and earth in the middle of the courtyard. The two lovebirds were grinning from ear to ear, completely oblivious to the damage they had done to his old bachelor’s heart.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

He admitted Zhao Feishuang was very good-looking, handsome and tall like white birch. But weren’t they both men? And what was even more absurd was, the one wearing the red veil embroidered with mandarin duck was their family prince.

Zhang Yuan had a difficult time making head and tail of this. But in the end, it was his master business, the thing that tortured him right now was holding himself back from sharing this news with everyone. He had such a hot piece of gossip and yet he couldn’t spread it. After all, this concerned their master’s reputation, and he still had some loyalty. oi VlL

But, but, but it’s so uncomfortable! Zhang Yuan held it in for a whole night, held it in until he grew three sores in his mouth.

“Brother Zhang, what’s wrong with you?” As soon as Zhao Feishuang came out, he saw Zhang Yuan standing stock-still like a wooden pestle in the courtyard, the rugged face looked haggard and full of grievances, so he went over and patted his shoulder.

“Why did you get up so early?” Master fixed Zhao Feishuang’s hair, his eyes were full of contentment, like a fox demon just got its stomach full after sucking men’s essence. Zhang Yuan was frightened by his own imagination. He did not dare to continue looking and forced himself to stare at the sun far, far away.

“I wanted to practice with the sword a little.” Zhao Feishuang smiled, his ears tips were a little red.

Seeing that,  Zhao Huai became playful and pinched his earlobe, “Looks like last night didn’t tire you out enough.” KezdA

“You still dare say that, wasn’t it because you…” Zhao Feishuang abruptly stopped. He glanced at Zhang Yuan who was perking his ears up to eavesdrop, then lowered his voice, whispering something which Zhang Yuan couldn’t catch. Then, Zhang Yuan saw his family prince rub Zhao Feishuang’s waist with a smile, before openly took his hand and walked out together fearlessly.

Zhang Yuan watched their backs’ silhouettes disappear, and then started hitting and punching the large boulder in the courtyard. If they were not intending to hide it in the first place, then for what reason did he suffer so much last night?!

Do you guys know how painful it is not being able to gossip? Do you?!

No, you don’t. You guys only know how to flaunt PDA. w6miQs

Zhang Yuan was so depressed, the three sores in his mouth became even more painful.

Translator’s afterword:

Another story wrapped up. Do you think it was too short? I think so. The projects I’ve picked up so far belonged to the “read for fun” category. To say it a little harsher, they belonged to the “no plots, no substances” category. Whenever I finished reading short stories like this, I often hoped the author would have written a little longer, or developed it a little more. But then I thought, if it was longer, then the charming elements which only exist in a short story would be lost. And the most important thing is, if it was any longer, I wouldn’t have picked it up in the first place lol. xDfwhq

Thank you for reading~ o((*^▽^*))o

My favorite genre for translation is short, fictional, plus historical. Because I like historical settings, and have low perseverance.
