Chapter 43 White Lotus Su Peisheng saw someone coming here from a distance...
Su Peisheng saw someone walking towards this side from afar, but he didn't dare to turn around. He turned his back to Yinzhen and carefully reminded him.
These words were like a magic spell, awakening the two sculptures squatting there motionless.
Yinzhen was the first to move. He seemed to have found a savior. He stood up and stretched his hands and feet. He asked, "Who?"
Before Su Peisheng could answer, he bent down slightly and said in a low voice, "If you're going to be angry, why don't we go somewhere else where there's no one? Otherwise, if someone sees you and spreads the news, it won't be good for you."
Qi Buchen had actually been secretly wiping her eyes since she heard Su Peisheng's words. This outburst of anger had quenched much of the anger within her. Seeing Yinzhen so humbly and considerately addressing her, she felt a little uncomfortable. So, she stood up, lowered her head, and agreed, "Yes."
After she finished speaking, she took a step forward and wanted to walk without even looking at the direction. However, she had been squatting in one position for too long. When she moved, the numbness like needles shot up from the soles of her feet to the top of her head. She didn't control the strength well, and her whole body tilted. She was about to fall to the ground.
Yinzhen was just feeling happy because his wife paid attention to him, when he saw his wife was about to fall. His body reacted faster than his brain, and he took a step forward and pulled Qi Buchen into his arms.
By the time his brain reacted, all his senses were filled with the soft touch and faint milky fragrance of the woman in his arms. His face involuntarily turned red. He didn't know what to do, so his body had to remain in the same position.
My mind was in a mess, with only one thought in mind.
Fu Jin is so soft and fragrant.
Qi Buchen, however, had no romantic thoughts at all. She just felt uncomfortable. One reason was that the numbness in her legs had not gone away yet, and the other was that Yinzhen caught her in a slanted position, which meant that her entire body was supported by the point where her arms touched Yinzhen's. This position certainly could not be comfortable.
She moved slightly, but still didn't look at Yinzhen, so she didn't notice anything unusual about him. She only said in a muffled voice, "Help me stand up."
"Oh...oh!" Yinzhen's slow mind finally started to work again. He quickly helped Qi Buchen stand up, then reluctantly let go of his hands and asked, "But your legs are numb? Can you still walk?"
Qi Buchen was about to reply when Su Peisheng's voice rang out, "Master, it's Princess Li Jia from Yuqing Palace."
Yinzhen frowned slightly upon hearing this. He didn't want to meet his second brother's concubine, so he said, "Let's go and bring the horses over."
Lin Changqing came over with two horses. Yinzhen asked Qi Buchen, "I picked out a docile little mare for you. You can't walk right now, so I'll let you ride it and lead it, okay?"
Qi Buchen raised her head and looked at Yinzhen with complicated eyes. When they first came out today, Yinzhen said he would teach her how to ride a horse, but she didn't expect it to end up like this.
She didn't say anything, but Yinzhen thought she was afraid, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, I will hold the reins for you myself. We will walk slowly, and you will definitely not fall."
Qi Buchen didn't know what to say, so he just nodded slowly.
Yinzhen gently instructed her how to mount. This specially selected mare was not tall, intended for beginners with no prior experience, so Qi Buchen only had two attempts to get on. As she mounted, Yinzhen held his hands slightly open, protecting her waist, ready to catch her at any moment.
After Qi Buchen successfully mounted the horse, Yinzhen still felt a little lost in his heart. He couldn't help but recall the feeling of holding the warm and soft beauty in his arms. He held the horse rein with his right hand and rubbed it silently twice with his left hand hanging by his side.
Yinzhen walked on the left side of Qi Buchen, Lin Changqing and others who were good at riding horses walked on her right side, and Baozhu and others followed far behind. The group walked in silence.
At first, Qi Buchen lowered her head and stared at the horse's mane in a daze, while Yinzhen would steal glances at her from time to time. Thanks to the horse, Qi Buchen was finally taller than Yinzhen, allowing Yinzhen to see the expression on her face clearly.
But gradually, the two of them were involuntarily attracted by the vast grassland scenery. The breeze was blowing gently, and there were more or less people scattered in the distance. Further away were flocks of sheep following the Mongols. Groups of white were moving on the green grassland, like white clouds floating in the sky.
Washed by such scenery, the grievances, loneliness, panic and fear in his heart seemed to be blown away by the wind, but Qi Buchen knew that they did not, but just hid deep in his heart, waiting for the next outbreak.
Although she was in her twenties in her previous life, she grew up in a simple environment, her biggest worries being her phone stolen today and her parents urging her to get married tomorrow. Therefore, she didn't develop a mature and resolute character. Or rather, she had always believed herself to be strong. After all, she was able to go out on her own after graduation and work hard in other places, which made her seem much more mature than her classmates who returned to their parents' care after graduation. But after inexplicably traveling back hundreds of years, she realized that she was not strong or mature at all. She missed her parents, her friends, her phone, the internet, and the freedom and everything of modern society. That's why she exploded when her sensitive spots were touched.
Of course, she is actually still afraid of death. Even if she explodes, it is only after she has weighed the pros and cons and her instinct allows it.
Her outbursts only occurred in front of Yinzhen.
After more than half a year of contact, she had vaguely felt the limit of Yinzhen's tolerance. She was also aware of the vague affection Yinzhen had for her, but she had always pretended not to know. However, when she needed it, she would subconsciously take advantage of it.
To put it bluntly, she was just taking advantage of Yinzhen's good impression of her.
She is actually just a hidden white lotus.
Just as Qi Buchen was mentally analyzing and condemning himself, they had already reached a small hill by a lake. Yinzhen called a halt: "Su Peisheng, take your men to the hill to make arrangements. Lin Changqing, take your men to catch some game."
"Yeah." Everyone consciously left the place where Yinzhen and Qi Buchen were.
Qi Buchen came to his senses, looked around, and found that the so-called lake was actually just a depression formed by rainwater, and the mountain was just a small mound of earth.
When she lowered her head, she found Yinzhen staring at her closely. She pursed her lips and stretched out her hand: "I want to get down."
The corners of Yinzhen's mouth curled up instantly, but then he suppressed it. He stretched out his hand and gently held Qi Buchen's small hand, while his other hand pressed on the horse's neck to prevent it from moving around and falling Qi Buchen.
After Qi Buchen came down, he withdrew his hand, which made Yinzhen feel disappointed again, but he soon became happy again.
"Let's go for a walk by the lake," said Qi Buchen.
Noticing the calmness in her tone, Yinzhen's heart, which had been hanging in the balance, relaxed slightly. With his eyes slightly curved, he agreed, "Okay."
The two of them started walking along the lake. This time, Qi Buchen didn't care about the order of precedence and walked casually. Yinzhen also slowed down his pace and followed her.
After getting some distance away from the others, Qi Buchen suddenly spoke.
"I want to talk to you."
