Chapter 428 Jealousy

A quarter of an hour later, the Cloud-Swallowing Beast carried Yun Chen, and the Wolf-Slaying Colt carried Huo Gannian.

The two figures met in the distance, their horses' hooves lifted off the ground as if flying, and they galloped towards each other.

But when they were almost in front of each other, they stopped at the same time, looked at each other and kept grinning foolishly, neither of them said a word.

This confused the soldiers on both sides:

"What's the point? Rushing over to hug it! Chewing it! What's the point of just looking at it?"

"You know shit, that's called eye contact!"

"Maybe you're embarrassed?"

"I'm fine! I'm embarrassed to watch!"

"I'm just saying they're embarrassed!!"

The soldiers were talking to each other, laughing and chatting, and the brave ones even whistled.

Finally, Fu Lin and Duan Jie couldn't stand it anymore, so they first dismissed the surrounding soldiers to prepare to return to Beijing, and then winked at each other from a distance.

Fu Lin quietly pushed Yun Chen hard from behind.

Duan Jie twisted the wolf-killing colt's butt hard, causing the horse to run away for a long distance with Huo Gannian in pain.

So you take a step forward and I jump forward, and the distance between the couple is shortened a lot.

It was so close that Huo Gan Nian could clearly see Yun Chen's eyebrows like distant mountains and eyes like autumn water. She lowered her head slightly, her eyelashes slightly curled up, and her smile was so beautiful and lovely. The tips of her ears were red, and she looked so attractive that people wanted to suck them in.

Yun Chen took the lead in mustering up his courage, took a deep breath nervously, and called out in a trembling voice:

"A Nian..."

The tone carried a bit of a young woman's resentment, and also a bit of coquettishness.

Even Yun Chen himself was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect such a disgusting sound to come out of her mouth.

Huo Gannian felt his heart go numb after hearing this. He was about to rush up and hug Yun Chen regardless of anything, but he heard Duan Jie coughing violently behind him, and it was more natural than a fart.

He suddenly remembered Duan Jie's carefully prepared "bad idea" and forcibly restrained his movements. He only imitated Yun Chen and called out briefly:

"Chen'er."

Yun Chen smiled shyly and was about to speak again when he saw a gorgeous carriage slowly approaching from not far away. It was obvious that it came with the Lion Army.

The carriage stopped not far away. A delicate hand, as soft as boneless and wearing a mutton-fat jade bracelet, reached out from behind the curtain. A soft female voice followed, calling out:

"General Huo."

Huo Gannian immediately dismounted and trotted to the carriage. He raised his arm naturally and skillfully, allowing the slender hand to rest on it.

Immediately afterwards, a graceful woman stepped out and walked gracefully down from the carriage.

Huo Gannian's arm was like the most loyal guard, always clinging tightly to the woman, supporting and protecting her carefully.

Looking at this scene, Yun Chen stood there in a daze, and all the smiles on his face froze.

Fu Lin behind her covered his head with his hands in pain, glared at Duan Jie who was laughing like an idiot across from him, and cursed with his mouth:

"What a stupid idea you came up with!"

Luo Dongdong and Rong Yi on the side were trying to hold back their laughter:

"Did you see the boss's expression?"

"White as a ghost!"

“Hahahahahaha!”

In Yun Chen's stunned eyes, Huo Gannian supported the woman and slowly walked forward. Without explaining to Yun Chen first, he actually introduced her to the woman next to him:

"Xixi, this is Yunchen."

Yun Chen was stunned:

Yun...Chen?

Yun Chen???

Ah Nian called me Yun Chen???

Before Yun Chen could recover from the landslide, he heard Huo Gannian say to everyone:

"When I was fighting in the north, I was once in a critical situation. The enemy pursued me deep into the dense forest. Fortunately, Xixi passed by and lent a hand. She looked after me day and night for several days, which saved me from disaster."

Huo Gannian emphasized the word "day and night" very much. After he finished speaking, he looked at Yun Chen earnestly, his tone somewhat pleading:

"Chen'er, Xixi lost her family in the war and is now an orphan without a father or a mother. Apart from me, she has no one to rely on. Chen'er, Xixi is a good-natured girl, very gentle and kind. Can you treat her well?"

"I..." Yun Chen was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth and couldn't speak.

At this time, Xixi stepped forward gracefully, with a pitiful attitude, bowed softly to Yunchen, and said with tears in her eyes:

"General Yun, please let me go."

Now, even if Yun Chen was a dumb person, he understood what was going on.

Huo Gannian thought... he had changed his mind...

Maybe he wants to have the best of both worlds!

Maybe, he has already fallen for Xixi and despises Yunchen...

Thinking of this, Yun Chen's face turned pale and his lips trembled.

This expression frightened Huo Gannian. His scalp immediately went numb. He let go of everything and rushed forward to hug Yun Chen, saying anxiously:

"Chen'er, don't be angry! I was just kidding and trying to scare you. It's not true! I was wrong. Don't be angry!"

Unfortunately, Yun Chen was so shocked that he was in a trance. He could not hear or see anything. His face was pale and his eyes were filled with tears. He murmured, "Okay, then you can start a family with your beloved Xixi..." Then he reined in his horse and rode away.

Huo Gannian was so anxious that he ran after him frantically. After running for dozens of feet, he remembered that he had a horse. He hurriedly turned around to get the horse, shouting "Chen'er, I was wrong!" and chased after him desperately.

Everyone stood there looking at each other.

Fu Lin was so angry at this scene that he laughed. He flexed his wrist and walked towards Duan Jie, gritting his teeth:

"Your idea was a rotten one, wasn't it? If I don't beat you up like an idiot and make you scream for help today, it would be a waste of half an hour of my time putting on Yun Chen's makeup!"

It was rare to see Fu Lin's murderous expression. Duan Jie was so scared that he hid everywhere and quickly explained:

"No! Wait! Don't blame me! Who made Yun Chen fall in love with someone else and like Qingxuan Xiaoxiang? She was the one who changed her mind first, making Huo cry her heart out! Wasn't I just trying to find a way to reconcile the two of them? Isn't it said that jealousy is good for the body and mind? Doesn't jealousy accelerate love?"

"Is it possible that Yun Chen changed his mind? He recognized Huo Gannian a long time ago! Do you think she is stupid?!" Fu Lin yelled and walked towards Duan Jie with his fists waved.

On the other side, seeing that Huo Gannian had broken through his defense and was chasing Yun Chen, Xixi no longer needed to act. She sat down on the ground, completely losing the delicate and beautiful demeanor she had just shown. She fanned herself with her handkerchief and complained:

"I'm so exhausted! Just getting off the carriage and two lines took me half a month to practice! If it weren't for the gold, I wouldn't have taken this wicked job of breaking up a couple!"

Luo Dongdong finally understood, and exclaimed "Oh" in sudden enlightenment:

"So that's how it is. General Huo misunderstood General Yun's change of heart, so he pretended to have changed his mind to stimulate General Yun's heart? Now that the stimulation is too exciting, he's going after him to coax him again? Honestly, only a fool would come up with such a rotten and despicable idea."

After saying that, Rong Yi, who was standing next to him, did not actively support him as usual. Luo Dongdong was very uncomfortable with this and turned to look for someone. However, he saw Rong Yi had already rushed to Xixi's side and was asking about her well-being.

"How on earth did Miss Xixi know General Huo?"

Xixi looked Rong Yi up and down, her eyes slightly bright, her eyebrows and eyes full of charm, she said with a playful smile:

"I'm a singer from a Southern Opera troupe. General Huo hired me for ten taels of gold to act with him, saying it was to make his wife jealous."

"The girl must be exhausted after such a long journey. Why don't you rest in Yancheng for a few days before continuing?"

"Okay, but I'm afraid you'll dislike me for dirtying the floor tiles in your house."

"How could that be? If you find it dirty, then just stay on the couch and don't get down."

"Oh, that person is scared to be alone!"

"Then I'll accompany you, okay?"

Listening to the extremely ambiguous conversation between the two and watching the affectionate glances between the man and the woman, it was almost in the blink of an eye that Rong Yi took Xixi down. Luo Dongdong was completely stunned and thought:

Rong Yi, Rong Yi, when it comes to picking up girls, you are second to none and no one dares to be first!
