Chapter 19 The Delicate Queen
His brow bones trembled slightly, like the strings of a guitar blown by the breeze, stirring up emotions that shouldn't be there.
"Since this princess is so beautiful, why doesn't General Huo dare to open his eyes and look at me?"
Huo Xiao's voice trembled with a hint of helplessness, "Princess..."
The unclear words were quickly interrupted by Su Yunyao.
"Brother General, have you ever seen the picture book of the Kingdom of Women?"
Huo Xiao: ???
"You say that everything is empty, but you keep your eyes closed. If you open them and look at me, I don't believe you have empty eyes."
"You don't dare to open your eyes and look at me, and yet you still say that the four elements are empty?"
"Brother, don't you really like me? Today is a rare good night, just agree to it."
A question mark slowly appeared above Huo Xiao's head, and then he heard Su Yunyao suddenly change the subject.
"I'm not a delicate queen. I have plenty of strength and means."
Before she finished speaking, she kicked Huo Xiao into the hibiscus pond.
The water in the pool suddenly overflowed from the edge of the pool.
Pearl wisely retreated and considerately closed the door.
Huo Xiao: ...
Huo Xiao didn't expect Su Yunyao to be like this. The moment he lost weight and fell, he choked on a mouthful of water.
After all, if it were any other day, with his internal strength, it would be impossible for anyone to push him, let alone push him directly into the water.
Huo Xiao was choked and started coughing violently. His whole body was soaked and he looked a little embarrassed.
He knew in his heart that he had been fooled by the princess again, and felt helpless.
Huo Xiao stopped coughing and said helplessly, "Princess..."
As soon as he raised his eyes, he met Su Yunyao's glowing white skin, which was particularly eye-catching in the dim room with only one lamp on. The words that were on the tip of his tongue were stuck in his throat.
He was a little afraid to look her in the face and turned his head to the other side. Only he knew that if he didn't shut up, his cowardly heart would jump out of his body.
He knew that the princess was just teasing him, but he was happy to accept it and didn't get angry at all. Even in the deepest part of his heart, there was an emotion that was difficult to suppress, howling madly.
Su Yunyao's jade feet created a small splash on the calm water surface, and as the water rippled, she fell into the pool.
Huo Xiao subconsciously took a step back.
But at this time his back was already pressed tightly against the edge of the stone wall.
The warm spring water spread layers of white mist in the cold air, and her figure was looming in the interweaving of warm yellow pearlescent light and mist.
She slowly stood up straight, and drops of water slid down her shoulders.
Su Yunyao raised her arm from the water, grabbed Huo Xiao's collar, and her fingertips inadvertently brushed across his Adam's apple, causing him to shudder.
"General Huo, are you going to dress up and go to the hot springs with this princess?"
Su Yunyao's blue bellyband wrapped around her graceful figure and was out of place with his military uniform.
"General Huo, why is he not in the barracks but also wearing military uniform?"
Her voice had a captivating rhythm, as if every word was teasing his heart.
"General Huo, do you want to take it off yourself? Or do you want me to help you?"
Huo Xiao raised his hand and grabbed her wrist, which was resting restlessly on his Adam's apple. "I dare not blaspheme the princess."
"Oh." Su Yunyao drawled, the last syllable hanging on very long. "Don't dare? I think you are very bold. Just now you didn't even dare to open your eyes to look at this princess, and now you dare to hold my hand."
Huo Xiao was startled when he heard this and quickly loosened his fingertips. However, Su Yunyao was caused by his loosening of her fingertips and fell backwards with a slip of her feet.
At the moment her black hair touched the water, Huo Xiao's arms in the water wrapped around her waist. He stared at her straight, his eyes not quite innocent. He swallowed his saliva at the faint curve under the blue bellyband and the water droplets between the hills and valleys.
Su Yunyao's eyebrows twisted slightly, and a hissing sound came from the corner of her lips.
"What's wrong?" Huo Xiao felt a tightness in his heart as he saw that he seemed to be hurt somewhere.
"Your uniform is so hard, it hits me."
Huo Xiao was stunned when he heard this. "The princess just asked me whether I should take off my clothes myself or you should help me. I can answer you now."
He held Su Yunyao's hand without moving, and as the water splashed, his outer clothes were all scattered in the hibiscus pond.
Su Yunyao slowly moved down along his cheek, his white underwear half covered and half opened, just enough to see his well-defined waist and abdomen and the smooth mermaid line.
She counted silently in her heart, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
Eight dollars?
Some people actually have eight-pack abs.
Huo Xiao's scalp went numb at her fiery gaze. This numbing feeling seemed different from the usual one, with a different kind of crispness.
"No, isn't military uniform something you wear during war? How can it be taken off so easily? Is there some secret button that snaps off with a single click? If the enemy could touch this switch, wouldn't they be able to strip the soldiers naked in a second?"
Huo Xiao: ...
Huo Xiao's lips tightened. "Princess, there are three types of military uniforms. The kind you mentioned is iron armor for war. What I'm wearing today is just casual clothing, just like the court dress of a civil official, only decorated with copper nails. During training, I wear lighter armor like leather or cloth, which allows for more mobility and provides some protection."
Thinking of the princess, he couldn't tell the difference between a general and a general, and between the Supreme Court Minister and the Shengjing Prefecture Governor. He continued, "Forgive me for speaking frankly, but Princess, you really need to understand this better..."
Su Yunyao suddenly kissed his lips, and all the unfinished words fell on her lips.
Huo Xiao opened his eyes as wide as possible almost in an instant.
The kiss was light, like a dragonfly skimming the water. After just a brief taste, she pulled away and took a step back. "What do you want this princess to understand?"
Huo Xiao's face was full of confusion. His fingertips fell on the place where Su Yunyao had just kissed and fluttered for a moment. He suddenly lost all memory and couldn't remember what he had just said.
"What?"
Su Yunyao hooked her finger at him.
"Nothing, you just wanted to say that you wanted to kiss this princess..."
"Yes." Huo Xiao slowly took a step towards her, "I am so bold, I want to..."
The smile on Su Yunyao's lips slowly faded. Watching Huo Xiao approaching little by little, she slowly stood up straight, her eyes shining.
Why doesn't Huo Xiao play by the rules? According to his usual strict character, he is a general and a great general.
She's the kind of person who has to argue for a long time even over a single word like "big".
What happened? Why did he agree to something he didn't say?
The moment Su Yunyao was confused, Huo Xiao had already stood in front of her and looked down at her.
His strong arms supported themselves on the stone wall behind her. He slowly lowered his head. Unlike Su Yunyao's previous light kiss, his kiss was overbearing and brutal. He took away all the air around her, crushing even the slightest bit of resistance...
