Chapter 118, Who Are We?
Looking at Yan Wenkai, who was running ahead with two little girls and smiling, Dong Yuanxuan and Zhou Chengye exchanged a quick glance, and both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The young prince took the initiative to ask them to come and pay their respects to the ladies, and they all had a vague guess as to the purpose of this.
When they were about to leave, both of them racked their brains to think about how to get the two girls out without making any noise. Unexpectedly, before they could find a good excuse, the carefree Yan Wenkai helped them solve the big problem.
Looking at Yan Wenkai who was talking enthusiastically with the two little girls about the scenery of the back mountain, and Yan Wentao who was carefully guarding him, Dong Yuanxuan sighed and said that people who think less live a free life.
These two brothers are also very charming. One is cheerful and enthusiastic, while the other is introverted and steady. Their actions complement each other perfectly.
No wonder the young prince always takes these two brothers with him whenever he has something to do. It’s easy to get along with people like this who can understand your inner thoughts at a glance.
He also likes to spend time with the two of them.
Unlike him and Zhou Chengye, who always consider the impact on the family when doing anything, sometimes they are inevitably a little restrained.
Earlier, Yan Wenkai had no idea about the dispute between Dong Yuanxuan and Zhou Chengye, and he was feeling very proud at the moment.
After rescuing his elder sister from their mother, he instantly felt that his image had become taller and he was extremely happy.
Soon, the group arrived at the back mountain.
Looking at the guards standing around, Daohua and Zhou Jingwan stopped laughing and walked beside Yan Wenkai and the others like very ladylike people.
Daohua secretly looked at the guards around her. Seeing that many of them were wearing swords, she sighed in her heart, it was indeed the royal family, and the scene was so grand.
There are large areas of grassland on the back mountain, and the view here is much wider than that on the front mountain.
"Hey, where's the little prince?"
Yan Wenkai didn't see Xiao Yeyang, so he immediately looked around. Soon, he pointed at the octagonal pavilion built on the stone cliff and said, "He's in the pavilion. Wait a moment, I'll go call him." After saying that, he ran away.
When Zhou Jingwan met Xiao Yeyang for the first time, and having been influenced by feudal etiquette since childhood, she had an instinctive respect for the royal family. She pulled Daohua aside and asked quietly, "Is the young prince fierce? Does he hit or scold people?"
Daohua was stunned for a moment, silent for a long time, and said uncertainly: "It shouldn't be that serious. He is a boy and we are girls. It would be unkind of a boy to hit a girl."
Behind them, Dong Yuanxuan and others were speechless when they heard the two little girls talking.
No matter how bad the little prince's temper is, he doesn't know how to make things difficult for the two little girls!
Dong Yuanxuan looked at Daohua several times. If he remembered correctly, the last time they were at Yan's house, this girl had confronted the young prince several times.
Does that look like he's afraid at all?
In the pavilion, Xiao Yeyang had already seen Daohua and the others, but in order to maintain his noble image, he waited for Yan Wenkai to come and call him, then slowly drank tea for a while before walking over with his men.
As the distance between the two sides gradually narrowed, Xiao Yeyang became more and more curious.
What's wrong with Daohua today?
He didn't even greet me!
She looked at me politely, like a lady.
In fact, Daohua moved her lips several times, but when she thought about what Yan Wenkai and the others had told her about what happened in the academy, she clearly realized that she could no longer be so disrespectful with Xiao Yeyang.
So, he stood side by side with Zhou Jingwan and looked at Xiao Yeyang.
Soon, Xiao Yeyang came in front of the two of them.
"Meet the young prince!"
Daohua followed Zhou Jingwan and bowed to Xiao Yeyang politely.
Others didn't think anything of it, but Xiao Yeyang was surprised.
This guy Daohua has never been polite to him since the first time he saw him. He remembered that when he was fleeing, the food was rough and he didn't want to eat it. Once, he even got angry and threw the food away.
Good man, this guy slapped him on the back of his hand.
At that time, he was completely stunned.
From childhood to adulthood, who dared to do this to him?
He was originally very angry and decided in his heart that once he regained his identity, he would immediately teach her a lesson. But then he saw her quietly picking up the food he threw away, wiping it and putting it in her mouth to eat, and he suddenly stopped being angry.
Later, he was really hungry. Although this guy looked impatient, he still gave him a piece of softer rations from Old Lady Yan's food.
After that, he and she never stopped quarreling, but looking back on that period now, apart from being a little difficult, it was actually quite interesting.
The reason why he was so impressed with Daohua was probably because she treated him equally as an ordinary person from beginning to end, without flattery or bullying, even when he was in a very bad state.
Her attitude towards him was just because of who he was, and had nothing to do with his identity.
This was truly a unique experience for him, who had lived in the imperial city since childhood.
He also remembered the vitality she exuded and her eyes that were always smiling.
"Bang!"
Xiao Yeyang was a man who never hid his emotions. If he couldn't figure something out, he simply stopped thinking about it. He walked up to Daohua, folded his fan, and gently tapped her head: "You took the wrong medicine!"
Daohua covered her head and stared at Xiao Yeyang, almost choking back.
Don't blame her. She really can't respect Xiao Yeyang like other people do. First, she comes from the modern era. Although she has lived in ancient times for a few years and has some understanding of imperial power, she is not really afraid of him in her bones.
Second, the impression this guy left on her was that he was in dire straits. Back then, she had never lost a fight with him.
Third, Xiao Yeyang is now at best a little kid. How can she, an adult soul, bow down in front of a child?
Seeing Daohua was about to say something, Xiao Yeyang said unhappily, "Just say what you want to say. When did you become so dithering?"
Upon hearing this, Daohua immediately put down her hands that were covering her head and said angrily: "Your hand really deserves a slap. Why did you hit me? I'm warning you, if you do this again next time, I will be rude to you." As she said that, she raised her fist and shook it in front of Xiao Yeyang.
Now, Xiao Yeyang felt comfortable.
This is what rice flowers should look like!
The proper ladylike behavior is totally inconsistent with her personality.
"How's the scenery of the mountain behind this?"
On the side, Defu saw that it was his master who softened first, and he was speechless and looked up at the sky.
Seeing Xiao Yeyang change the subject, Daohua didn't continue. She looked out at the red maple leaves covering the mountain. She felt relaxed and said with a smile, "Mm, very beautiful."
Xiao Yeyang turned around and saw the sparkling light in her eyes, and couldn't help laughing.
He didn't know why, but he always felt that Daohua's smile gave him a warm and healing feeling, just like the warm sunshine in winter shining on his body.
"That's nothing. The scenery of Wuhua Mountain is even better. Next time I have a chance, I'll take you there."
"Okay," Daohua agreed without hesitation, but soon stopped.
Xiao Yeyang wondered: "Why, don't you want to go shopping?"
Daohua: "Of course I thought about it, but I can't always bother you."
Xiao Yeyang said what Daohua had said without thinking: "We are friends, why be polite!" Daohua said this to him many times when they were fleeing, and he always remembered it.
Defu, who was standing by, shook his body and felt his neck was so stiff that he didn't want to look up at the sky anymore.
