Chapter 489: Hugging her for the first time
Yan Xingyi's arms felt empty.
There was still a faint, fresh scent from the woman, different from the sweet fragrance of the noble ladies in the capital.
A bit like...green grass after rain.
He looked at her lowered head and her thin, fragile neck.
The doubts in my heart deepened.
The way she fell just now...
It was definitely one of his self-created moves, "Willow in the Wind", used to relieve force and dodge.
At this time, Chu Weiluo also "hurriedly" dismounted and ran over, her face full of "anxiety" and "guilt".
"Sister! Are you okay? It's all my fault for not controlling the horse well... I was scared to death!"
As she spoke, she wanted to reach out to pull Chu Weiyi, but Chu Weiyi dodged her hand calmly.
Chu Weiluo was so angry that she almost bit her teeth!
It's obvious that he wants to see this bitch make a fool of herself.
But she never expected that the eldest prince she had been thinking about would save this bitch!
She could only suppress the anger in her heart and move forward to ask Chu Weiyi about her well-being.
There was also a buzz of discussion around, most of which were praising the eldest prince for his superb skills and heroic act of saving the beauty.
Some people also whispered about Chu Weiyi's embarrassment and Chu Weiluo's "carelessness".
Yan Xingyi glanced at Chu Weiluo coldly.
He has been in the military camp and the circle of nobles for many years. How could he not see through the tricks of this woman in the harem?
I'm just too lazy to point it out.
His attention was still on Chu Weiyi.
"Since you're alright, go and rest nearby."
His tone was calm, yet he held an air of authority.
"Second Miss Chu, please take good care of your horses. If you do that again, it might disturb more than just your family."
These words were suggestive, and Chu Weiluo's face turned pale, and she nodded in agreement.
A storm seems to have subsided.
The game continued, but Yan Xingyi's mind drifted away.
From time to time, he looked at Chu Weiyi who was sitting quietly in the corner.
That silent, seemingly weak woman who may possess martial arts skills.
The inexplicable familiarity she felt made him want to find out more.
Chu Weiyi, on the other hand, always kept her head down and tried to reduce her presence.
Only her clenched fists revealed her inner unrest.
There seemed to be a scorching heat still lingering around the waist that he had just held.
It reminded her that she had once been distantly close to the scorching sun that she dared not look up at.
The women's polo match ended with a great victory for the team led by Princess Changle.
Everyone cheered and praised, and Yan Xingyi also stood up and applauded his sister.
Chu Weiyi, on the other hand, stood up silently amidst Chu Weiluo's hypocritical "concern" and the vague gazes from others.
Prepare to leave this place that makes her heart beat fast.
In the setting sun, the two figures were elongated.
He and she, one stood in the center of the noisy crowd, the other walked silently to a secluded corner.
It's like two lines that briefly intersect and then quickly separate.
However, they didn't know.
The gears of fate began to turn slowly because of this unexpected "rescue".
Chu Weiluo noticed that the eldest prince actually glanced at Chu Weiyi's back as she left.
She almost broke her teeth.
I wasn't paying attention for a moment and pulled out a handful of horse hair.
The horse felt pain, neighed, and rushed towards Princess Changning's pavilion!
The crowd suddenly screamed and became chaotic!
Miaomiao was originally cheering for her sister and Tangtang, while also thinking about the next step that her brother Yuchen mentioned.
When he looked up, he saw a frightened horse charging towards him.
She was so scared that her face turned pale and her heart was beating like a drum.
It's over, it's going to be crushed.
"Miaomiao, be careful!"
Seeing this, Yan Xingyi and Zhao Zhao quickly ran over there.
In a flash, a moon-white figure rushed out faster than them!
Cui Huailin almost instinctively pounced towards Miaomiao.
Just before the frightened horse knocked over the awning, he grabbed her by the waist and quickly turned around to avoid it!
"boom--!"
The awning collapsed with a loud noise, and the wooden frame and bamboo mat fell to the ground with a crackling sound, raising dust.
Miaomiao subconsciously grabbed the person's clothes tightly.
When the dust settled a little, she looked up in shock.
It was colliding with Cui Huailin’s bottomless eyes.
There was a surge of emotions there that she had never seen before.
It felt like there was worry, fear, and a burning heat that almost burned through her.
There was silence all around, and everyone stared at them in amazement.
Cui Huailin's arms were still tightly wrapped around her waist, with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood.
He looked down at her, his voice hoarse and concealing a barely perceptible tremor.
“…It’s okay.”
Miaomiao stared at him in a daze.
This was the first time that Brother Huailin took the initiative to hug her and was so close to her.
His heartbeat was fast and heavy, hitting her arm through the fabric of her clothes.
There is no mention of this kind of accident in Su Yuchen’s “secret book”!
What should she do now?
Should I push him away?
Yes, she wants to push him away. She doesn’t like him anymore!
But before she could reach out her hand.
Cui Huailin suddenly let go of her and took a step back as if he was suddenly scalded.
He quickly returned to his usual cool and reserved demeanor, and his tone became distant again.
"I apologize for your rudeness. Your Highness is frightened."
Miaomiao felt her heart go empty. The warm touch and rapid heartbeat just now seemed like a dream.
She watched him turn back into the cold Cui Huailin in an instant, and felt a huge sense of loss and grievance in her heart.
But she quickly encouraged herself -
She doesn’t like him anymore! So she can’t have this kind of emotion!!!
She bit her lip, lowered her head and whispered, "Thank you, Mr. Cui, for saving me."
After saying that, I didn't look at him again.
He turned around and walked quickly towards his brother and Zhao Zhao who were already in front of him, seeking comfort.
Cui Huailin stood there, and she called him "Master Cui" again.
Looking at her back, the soft touch and warmth of her waist can still be felt in my palm.
The fear and relief he felt when he hugged her just now shook his strong defenses.
He suddenly realized clearly that—
He couldn't bear to see her get hurt.
Even more unbearable...
She completely walked out of his world and ran towards someone else.
The little princess whom he had personally pushed away, declaring that she was "unfit to be the wife of a noble family."
He didn't know when it had already taken root in his heart.
Now it is spreading and growing wildly and uncontrollably.
And all his principles about "clan wives" and those rational considerations.
At the moment when the frightened horse rushed over, he became so pale and weak.
Cui Huailin slowly retracted his fingers and looked with complicated eyes at the petite figure who was surrounded by brothers and sisters and was being gently comforted.
Yan Xingyi was furious when he saw that his beloved sister was almost injured.
Chu Weiluo was taken away and beaten with twenty sticks.
He also sent the eunuch beside him to personally throw Chu Weiluo back to the Chu Mansion and told Lord Chu to discipline her well.
