Chapter 58
So she touched it again, and this time even the man's face stiffened. She withdrew her hand and stopped touching it.
The moment Song Xuan was touched by the girl beside him, his heart pounded like a drum, and he didn't know how to react. Fortunately, the girl didn't notice his abnormality and quickly withdrew her hand.
He took a deep breath and forced down the pounding in his heart.
Just then, a commotion arose behind him, and the crowd seemed to be in turmoil. The girl who had been walking beside him seemed to be startled, or perhaps jostled, and fell into his arms.
He caught the familiar jasmine scent emanating from the girl...
Shen Qingnian clung tightly to Song Xuan's waist, her expression beneath the veil revealing a hint of panic.
She looked up slightly at the man, her voice tinged with fear: "Young Master, it sounds like something is rushing towards us from behind..."
The man's waist was even thinner than she had imagined. Recalling that day in the dilapidated temple, she remembered that the man's waist and abdomen were thin, but there seemed to be a few muscles in the front. She thought that this was the difference between men and women.
Shen Qingnian had never seen another man's abs, and she didn't know that they were abs; she only remembered that there were muscles in that area.
She wrapped her arms around Song Xuan's waist, the two of them very close. She saw his Adam's apple bobbing up and down, and her ears turned red.
At this moment, the crowd behind him surged forward, and everyone ran ahead. Song Xuan didn't have time to think. He carried the soft, boneless girl in his arms and ran a few steps. Then, he gathered his energy and used his lightness skill to fly up.
Shen Qingnian was held in Song Xuan's arms. She let out a soft cry and hugged him even tighter, as if afraid of falling.
A cool night breeze caressed the two of them, and the faint scent of jasmine enveloped them. The crowd below looked up at the two in the air and gasped in surprise.
But soon, the two figures in the air disappeared, leaving only a faint lingering fragrance.
Shen Qingnian was carried by Song Xuan to the top of the rooftop, or more precisely, the top of the tower, using his lightness skill.
This is a tall tower located in the very center of the capital city. It has seven floors and is a restaurant, making it quite iconic.
From the top floor of the restaurant, one can enjoy a panoramic view of the entire capital city.
Tonight in the capital, lanterns resembling dragons illuminate the entire city, a magnificent sight that can only be witnessed once a year.
Shen Qingnian was still nestled in Song Xuan's arms. The two of them were standing at the highest point. Song Xuan was worried that the girl would be scared, so he did not push her away.
Shen Qingnian directed Song Xuan to this place. She thought the view from the top of the tower was beautiful and there was no one to disturb them, making it a good place to cultivate feelings.
However, she overlooked the fact that although the scenery up there was beautiful, it was also very high up, and she was actually quite scared at that moment.
Song Xuan noticed the girl in his arms seemed a little scared, and he asked softly, "Qing Nian, if you're scared, we can go down. There are beautiful places down there too."
He could see the girl's fluffy hair when he lowered his eyes slightly, and his own aura intertwined with the girl's.
The girl was afraid of heights, but he wasn't.
At this moment, his heart and eyes were filled with the soft, delicate person in his arms, a feeling that was both joy and torment.
After calming herself down, Shen Qingnian directly refused: "This is an excellent spot. Now that we're up here, we should take a good look with Your Highness."
As she spoke, she looked down and took in the magnificent view of the entire capital city.
Only then did Shen Qingnian realize how vast the capital city was, and how magnificent the Red Willow Palace Wall appeared from this vantage point.
Her pupils dilated slightly, and she couldn't help but murmur:
