Chapter 8 - Just Yesterday

" uhnn "

It wasn't for him!, collecting wages!

All this both, was so unlike the boundary keeper.

Who was it now for, it was a bit of hurtful for Eunuch Gao to not be the recipient, but before that the wages.

He truly didn't like wasting money on things.

Except his food, drinks, pleasure visits... Practically his own things and leisure.

But Eunuch Gao knew that the boundary keeper would not ask for money if it was not needed or necessary.

Maybe they were having some issues at their side, truly regrettable.

Not for their issues, but for the money he had to give!, truly regrettable.

It was best to give it to this "son ", and send him off as soon as possible, to avoid causing a nuisance, i.e to avoid others seeing him, and being curious 

But what was their plan with the load, that was also a nuisance, i.e it would make people ask questions.

Eunuch Gao knew he had to ask, very important.

" What do plan to do with all these goods?, and how much do you need? "

" The goods, i plan to sell them "

" Sale !", Eunuch Gao thought

Maybe he could buy it off from from the other party, although it was a lot of crops and animals, Eunuch Gao felt he could fleece off a good, cheap bargain.

For this stupid, sorry naive boundary keeper and his family it was easy for him to dupe them.

What did this vagrants know about the outside world, and the prices of things, they might even be grateful for his offer.

He even thought with more wisdom, he would even buy most not even all, and fleece of the remaining as freebies from them.

it was better for it to be so, so this "son" would not go about the Palace like this.

Maybe he could even know go ahead and inquire what they needed to do outside was, and help them with it, sending the son of to their enclosed space altogether.

Eunuch Gao didn't feel safe with this son out!

it was best he returned back!

he was also certain this " son " was also like his father, desperate to also handle whatever issues they had and return back.

So it wouldn't difficult for the other party to go back after he handled their matters.

it was truly a pity, it was now he was a bit settled and he could finally pay attention that Eunuch Gao finally paid a good look at the "son" well.

Very handsome, very beautiful!

An attractive physique, very pleasing to look at, what a gorgeous man.

Fair vibrant skin, black lustrous hair, red blood lips, deep starry eyes.

A man akin otherworldly, akin celestial.

As a man too Eunuch Gao felt oppressed.

Was this an ordinary boundasry keeper son, he had never seen the boudary keeper before.

Only the previous Eunuch Gao had.

But the son was truly very beautiful to behold

But if it was any consolation this "son" was like his father rotting in the boundary habitat.

it was better for this son to not swagger around, Eunuch Gao felt a dislike and extra reason to send him off.

Who knew how the women of the capital would feel seeing this kid. although he was only a fake Eunuch and couldn't openly compete in the market, codedly and disguisedly visiting pleasure houses, it still wasn't nice to have such an high profile competitor!

This kind of person would be the object of the desire of the top ladies of their Glorious Sun Empire!

No, no, no, he had to go back, hmph!

Although he wasn't a contender for these top women, and his feminine acquaintances were the women of the red light districts, he still didn't like the sour taste.

Truthfully this son couldn't even be a contender for his kind of women, with such looks the best of women would flock towards him

So the son wasn't his enemy after all, but...

But Eunuch Gao didn't feel any better.

Hmph!, just a pretty boy, he Eunuch Gao wasn't stupid like him!

Suppressing his discomfort, and using the most concerned tone he could muster he asked, " truly unfortunate, what is the matter, i could help sort it out "

it was truly unfortunate, not their problem but the fact they needed money,

Yes he should sort it out in the best possible/cheapest way without them also going out and about.

This young dazzling what if he was cajoled and influenced when he left into the world and fully became different from his "dedicated" father.

Better he handled all their issues personally.

Any ways he was their liaison, it only made sense for him to take this burden since their care was his priority, right!.

" Nothing really, I just want to collect all my Father's wages "

Eunuch Gao choked on the tea he was drinking and spat out again.

Coughing, maybe he didn't hear well.

From the moment Eunuch Gao spat out, Lin Ping was convinced that he had to be careful and cunning with this Eunuch, because....

Spitting tea?, why so shocked I came to collect my wages, why such a reaction.

Of course it was Lin Pang's but surely Lin Ping could collect it.

Directly seizing the initiative Lin Ping replied again, " all my wages "...

" Ehnn!, 

.....

Eunuch Gao started to sweat.

He felt nervous, faint, a hint of vertigo.

He also felt butterflies in his stomach, the bad kind.

What would he do.... This was different from the script, from the previous Enunch Gao to him, a career spanning two decades, all the wages, all...

The Gao's had fed on them.

What was happening.

He was even worse than "Uncle" Gao, accumulating less, spending more.

Just yesterday interestingly he had received the previous months pay for the boundary keeper and had swaggered off disguised to the red light district alley.

Enjoying both a nice plump ass* woman and a feast.

He had even tipped generously and had both drinks for everyone.

Just yesterday Head Eunuch Payo had asked him how the boundary keeper and family was doing.

He had said "fine", "that he took care of them, and ensured all their needs were taken care of "

Just yesterday Head Eunuch Payo had mentioned from the previous Gao to him, they had stayed in this secluded place taking care of the boundary keeper, and if he wanted to be transferred to a better position.

He had said no!

After all his life was dazzling, even as a Eunuch he lazed off and earned "very much", enjoying his life.

But now, this very much was being asked of.

But it had been enjoyed.

" All the wages!... Just a while ago he was okay and healthy, thinking how life was good, but now Eunuch Gao couldn't describe how he felt, but he knew he was falling sick.

 Not able to stand well again he fell back on the chair, his fat body making pahhh sound upon impact.

What was going on, what should he do.

Life felt bleak at this point.

Run away, to where?, what should he do.

Why did the invisible boundary keeper and his family suddenly become visible and come start crashing on him.
