Chapter 120 Why am I old?
I saw Cheng Gongjin standing quietly not far away. The moonlight stretched his tall shadow, and the pressure from his body was impossible to ignore.
Yu Qinghuan was nervous, even more nervous than when Xie Zhili discovered what was going on between her and Mu Huaian.
Her affair with Xiao Jinghe could not be known to others, but now Cheng Gongjin saw her coming out of Xiao Jinghe's tent late at night. Even a fool could see the affair between her and Xiao Jinghe.
Cheng Gongjin is not only the prime minister of the dynasty, but also Mu Huaian's teacher... He even knows that there is an unclear connection between him and Mu Huaian.
Their eyes met for a long time, and no one looked away, as if they were calling him over.
Yu Qinghuan didn't dare to gamble, so he clutched his cloak tightly and walked towards Cheng Gongjin.
It was not until she walked in front of Cheng Gongjin that she could see his expression clearly. He was still as indifferent as when they first met, and it was impossible to tell what emotion he was expressing.
Cheng Gongjin's gaze lingered briefly on her face.
Yu Qinghuan's face turned pale, and she was ready to be scolded by Mu Huaian's teacher.
Cheng Gongjin, however, just took out two handkerchiefs slowly from his sleeve pocket under the other party's panicked gaze, handed them over, and said in a calm voice: "Return them to you."
Yu Qinghuan took it in a daze, without having time to think about why there were two handkerchiefs. Seeing Cheng Gongjin turned around and left, she hurried to follow, "Wait a minute——"
Hearing the sound, Cheng Gongjin stopped and turned around, but Yu Qinghuan who was following behind him couldn't stop. Her pupils suddenly constricted and she rushed forward!
Just as Yu Qinghuan bumped into her, Cheng Gongjin raised his hand to hold her shoulder blade to steady her, but in doing so he caught a glimpse of the loose white undergarment under the open cloak, and the red kiss mark on the crooked collar.
His Adam's apple slid imperceptibly in the moonlight. He suddenly withdrew his hand, his low voice shrouded in chill, "Anything else?"
Yu Qinghuan's face turned slightly hot and she hurriedly wrapped her cloak tightly around her. If she had known this would happen, she would have dressed neatly before going out.
She didn't dare look at Cheng Gongjin, staring at the ground, and whispered, "Could you please keep today's matter a secret, Lord Cheng?"
Cheng Gongjin lowered his eyes and looked at Yu Qinghuan's clenched fingertips, which had turned white. "What's the matter?"
Yu Qinghuan's face immediately turned hot. What else could he ask someone to keep secret?
She subconsciously felt that the other party was teasing her, but the moment she raised her eyes and saw Cheng Gongjin's indifferent gaze, she felt that she was overthinking.
Maybe he really doesn't know what he is talking about.
Yu Qinghuan gritted her teeth and said, "Could you please keep my escape from the Crown Prince's tent a secret and not mention it to anyone else?"
I have explained it so clearly, he can't possibly not know what he is talking about.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Gongjin asked again: "Who is it?"
Yu Qinghuan wanted to die, who was it?
Of course everyone!
If she thought she was overthinking just now, at this moment, she had already confirmed that the person in front of her was clearly teasing her maliciously. If she still couldn't see it at this time, she would be a fool.
Thinking of this, she became furious. If she didn't want to help, then she wouldn't. How could she be making fun of someone?
Fortunately, I had lent him a handkerchief before to cover up the fact that he was poisoned.
Yu Qinghuan immediately didn't want to say another word to Cheng Gongjin. "It's alright. It's late. I won't bother you any more. Goodbye."
After saying this, she turned around, wrapped her cloak tightly around her, and left angrily.
In fact, Cheng Gongjin really had no intention of teasing anyone. He was just used to the strictness of government affairs and wanted to ask for clarification.
But at this moment, Yu Qinghuan's word "old man" made him change his expression.
He pursed his lips slightly, and his usually calm personality suddenly became concerned: Thirty-three, how can I be considered old?
...
The next day, Yu Qinghuan changed into riding clothes and just came out of the tent when he met Chen Niao who came looking for him.
Chen Niao's appearance and temperament are outstanding. He is wearing riding clothes and holding a horse in his hand. He looks more heroic than many men.
"Qinghuan, do you want to go horseback riding together?"
Yu Qinghuan's eyes lit up slightly, then quickly dimmed. She said a little embarrassedly, "I can't ride a horse."
She was born in the Yu Mansion and had no chance to touch a horse. This time she came to Jiuchong Mountain, she just wanted to relax and taste some wild game.
Chen Niao smiled, "No problem, I'll teach you!"
There are not many women in the capital who can ride horses. If Yu Qinghuan is taught, there will be someone to accompany her into the woods to hunt in the next few days.
Yu Qinghuan looked around. She had just agreed with Xie Zhiwen yesterday that he would teach her how to ride a horse today, but now she couldn't even see Xie Zhiwen's shadow, and she didn't know where he had gone.
Seeing that Chen Niao was willing to teach her, she immediately agreed.
At the horse farm, Chen Niao taught Yu Qinghuan some things to pay attention to when riding a horse, then helped her onto the horse and led her by the reins.
I thought it would take at least a whole day to teach him, but Yu Qinghuan was so smart that he quickly learned how to ride a horse. In less than half an hour, he could ride a horse leisurely.
At this time, Xie Zhiwen finally came back, holding a white fluffy rabbit and asking everyone if they had seen him, Yu Qinghuan.
Mu Huaian followed beside, his eyes occasionally fixed on the rabbit. He couldn't help but think that Yu Qinghuan must be happy when she saw the rabbit. She might even name the rabbit with Xie Zhiwen, raise it as a child, and call themselves father and mother.
Just now, Xie Zhiwen said that he would teach Yu Qinghuan how to ride a horse today...
When Mu Huaian thought about the two of them riding on the same horse, and Xie Zhiwen holding him in his arms and teaching him step by step, he couldn't help feeling a little jealous, but he could only suppress the jealousy.
The two finally found the person at the horse farm. They saw Yu Qinghuan riding a horse around the field, followed by Chen Niao who gave him instructions from time to time. Xie Zhiwen was so shocked that his sky fell.
He had just agreed with Yu Qinghuan yesterday that he would personally teach her how to ride a horse today. When he thought about teaching Yu Qinghuan how to ride a horse and being able to touch her from time to time and get close to her, he was so happy that he didn't even want to have breakfast.
Who would have thought that while he was trying to catch a rabbit, his lovely and charming Yu Qinghuan was already riding a horse and running very fast!
He gritted his teeth and looked at Mu Huaian beside him, "What's wrong with your Chen Niao? Why is he teaching Ah Huan to ride a horse for no reason?!"
I lost the chance to be intimate with Ah Huan.
Mu Huaian's thin lips curved slightly, his eyes unable to leave the wanton red figure on the field for a moment, and his voice became much lighter.
"My marriage to Chen Niao has been called off long ago. Don't say things that could lead to misunderstandings and damage other people's innocence in the future."
He thought to himself: Good friends are always outspoken, and I can’t let Yu Qinghuan misunderstand me.
Seeing the two of them, Yu Qinghuan immediately pulled the reins, forced the horse to stop, dismounted, and walked away quickly.
Seeing this, Chen Niao followed closely behind.
Xie Zhiwen waved the rabbit in his arms towards Yu Qinghuan, suppressing his previous complaints about Chen Niao. A smile appeared on his face. "Ah Huan, look what I caught for you."
Seeing the rabbit, Yu Qinghuan's eyes lit up, "Rabbit."
She immediately reached out and took the rabbit from Xie Zhiwen's arms, holding it in her arms, weighing it, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, "So fat!"
Hearing this, Xie Zhiwen vaguely felt that something was not right. The next moment, he saw Yu Qinghuan holding the rabbit and shouting to Chen Niao who was walking towards him:
"Niao Niao, we can eat roasted rabbit today!"
Mu Huaian was stunned, and suddenly smiled.
Only Xie Zhiwen's smile froze on his face...
