Chapter 54 Princess Carry
You helped Danheng stumble along the way. Although the dragon was drunk, he was very stubborn and insisted on walking by himself. As a result, he either bumped into a pillar or went the wrong way after taking only a few steps.
While trying not to laugh, you turned on your phone to record a video, capturing the ridiculous scene of the drunken Xiaolong.
"Danheng..." After laughing enough, you stepped forward to support him, to prevent your little dragon from being knocked silly.
After much thought, you decided to carry him in your arms in a princess carry, depriving him of the right to walk freely.
The sudden lift made him instinctively wrap his arms around your neck, as if he could smell your scent. He couldn't help but nuzzle against your chest, like a human cub snuggling in its mother's arms.
You carried him calmly through the streets and alleys, catching glimpses of the shocked looks on the faces of passersby.
As the hangover cure gradually took effect, Danheng's consciousness also recovered somewhat.
"Why are you here?" he murmured, his cheek still pressed against your chest.
"You're awake?" You gradually slowed your pace.
"You really dared to drink such strong liquor?" If you hadn't given him hangover pills in time, he probably would have slept for three days and three nights.
"...I couldn't refuse your kind offer..." Danheng stepped back, avoiding your chest.
"Don't move around, or you'll fall and I won't be able to blame you." You pretend to warn him, but your hands hold him firmly.
The dragon finally realized that it was nestled in your arms in a princess carry.
To make matters worse, he also overheard other people's gossip.
"Look, the woman is holding a man in her arms."
"The clothes look so familiar. Have I seen them somewhere before?"
"Now that you mention it, I remember too..."
Danheng blushed and demanded to get down and walk by himself.
"Stop fooling around, we'll be there soon."
You hatched a plan, then moved your feet lightly and quickened your pace. In no time, you appeared at the back door of the hotel, picked up Danheng, and jumped over the wall, landing steadily on the open ground in the backyard.
It all happened in an instant. Danheng frantically wrapped his arms around your neck, his heart pounding in his chest.
That's so embarrassing.
Before he could even catch his breath, a familiar voice rang out.
"Mom, Teacher Danheng!"
"That's it," Danheng said, looking utterly dejected.
The raccoon was rummaging through the trash can in the backyard for treasures when it suddenly saw a person fall from the sky.
Upon closer inspection, wasn't that Mom?
Why does the one in her arms look so much like Danheng?
"He accidentally hurt his leg, so I brought him back to get it treated." I thought there was no one here, but I didn't expect to run into the Trail Blazers.
Danheng immediately closed his eyes and buried his face in your arms, pretending to be dead.
"So that's how it is..." The raccoon quickly believed it and urged you to bandage Danheng as soon as possible.
"Mm." You nodded, then carried Danheng back to his room and gently placed him on the bed.
The dragon quickly rolled to the corner of the bed, buried himself in the blanket, and silently shut himself off.
"Danheng..." you called his name sweetly, but he pretended not to hear you.
So cute.
You laughed for a while, then left the room, thoughtfully closing the door behind you, and even telling the raccoon outside not to disturb him.
...
Xiaolong, who is withdrawn, did not leave his room until dinner time. You were worried that he would be hungry, so you took the dinner you had specially saved for him and knocked on his door.
With a click, the tightly closed door slowly opened, and Dan Heng appeared to be in normal condition.
You stated your purpose and shook the food box in your hand.
"Come in." Xiaolong welcomed you in. The blankets on the bed were neatly folded, and the smell of alcohol on him had faded to almost undetectable.
His hair was still dripping wet, and he had changed into a comfortable casual shirt, clearly indicating that he had just taken a shower.
You place the food on the table one by one, and while sipping your milk tea, you ask him if his meeting with Huaiyan went smoothly today.
"The general is a very nice person. We talked a lot today." Xiao Long reported the details of the conversation to you in an orderly manner. The content was almost the same as what Huai Yan had said. The difference was that the wine was not requested by Dan Heng himself.
You can't help but chuckle when you hear Danheng describe the taste of Zhu Ming Liquor.
“That’s the strongest liquor in Zhu Ming. Ordinary men only dare to drink one cup, but you dared to drink a whole bowl. If I hadn’t given you an antidote in time, you probably would have slept for three days and three nights.”
"The general said that if I finished drinking this bowl of wine, he would acknowledge our relationship. I didn't think much of it at the time..."
The seemingly calm and rational Danheng turns into a reckless and impulsive young man when it comes to love, a contrast that is quite endearing.
"Ahem... Don't tell anyone about what happened this afternoon... I won't do it again..."
"Alright, I've already warned the Trailblazers not to spread this around. Only the three of us know about this; how about we treat it as a secret between us?"
"Yes, thank you."
"However, our little dragon looks tall and strong, but he's actually very light when you hold him." You recall the feeling of carrying Dan Heng in your arms, how light he was, even lighter than your sword.
"...Didn't we agree not to mention this?" Dan Heng coughed lightly, trying to cover up his embarrassment.
"Just to reminisce, after all, I've never hugged anyone like this before, you're the first."
That's true. You've never hugged anyone else in such an intimate way, not even Danfeng.
Of course, Danfeng was very proud back then, so you never had the chance to hug him; he was always the one hugging you.
Now that it's Dan Heng who's in charge, it's fulfilled your fantasy of forcibly seizing the Dragon Lord.
Well, it feels really nice to hold, I'll hug it again next time.
"Really?" Upon hearing your words, the dragon almost couldn't suppress the urge to smile.
You smile and nod, then remind him to eat more and maintain a balanced diet.
Danheng obediently followed your advice and, for the first time ever, ate an extra bowl of rice.
You smiled and urged him to eat, a hint of heartache flashing in your eyes.
He has been imprisoned in a secluded prison since the day he hatched, and suffered a lot of hardship from childhood due to malnutrition.
Given Chiming's age, he is still in his growth period and needs to replenish his energy more in order to stay healthy.
Should we arrange for him to have an extra meal?
You silently pondered and drafted a nutritious recipe in your mind.
Dinner ended in a warm and cheerful atmosphere, after which you found a hairdryer and used the excuse of drying your hair to force yourself to stay in his room.
Danheng sat obediently in the chair, and hot air continuously flowed from the hairdryer's outlet. You worked in harmony with the hot air to methodically part his hair until that area became dry.
Your slender fingers deftly weave through his hair, sending shivers of pleasure through him.
Although it was just a small gesture, it made him feel the warmth and sense of belonging of home.
Such ordinary days are also very happy.
"The martial arts ceremony officially opens next Monday. I've reserved the best seat for you, so don't forget to come and watch."
You chatted with him while playing the flute.
"Okay, I will definitely be there on time." Dan Heng made a promise, just as Dan Feng had promised to attend the dance competition on time and watch your performance.
"Yes, I know you'll come." You replied softly, both to Danheng and to your past self who didn't dare to express your feelings directly.
After you finished drying your hair, you sat down and chatted with him for a while, then prepared to leave under the pretext of taking a break.
Before leaving, you kissed Danheng as usual, maximizing the bedtime ritual.
After seeing you off with reluctance, Danheng began to respond to Himeko and □□'s special attention.
He reported to the two men on the outcome of meeting the parents that day, saying that he had gained Huaiyan's approval and that what they taught was very useful.
Both elders offered their blessings, wishing him and you a long and happy life together.
Danheng thanked the two of them sincerely, his smile never fading.
Today is the happiest day of his life.
On this day, he received the approval of his lover's family, the care and encouragement from his lover, and the blessings from his family.
With three happy events at his doorstep, how could he not be overjoyed?
