Chapter 358, Provoking
Seeing the rice flowers, Xiao Yeyang was happy in his heart, but he pretended not to care: "Wen Kai and I are drinking and admiring the moon, what are you doing here?"
Hearing this, Daohua felt unhappy and snorted, "This is my home. I can come whenever I want."
On the side, Yan Wenkai saw that his sister and the young prince started quarreling as soon as they met, so he had to step in to mediate: "Okay, both of you should calm down. It's late at night. We are afraid that our families will not know that we are drinking secretly."
Hearing this, Daohua said nothing more. Instead, she looked around the rooftop and asked, "Where are we drinking? How do we get up to the rooftop? Uncle Qin Wu has to be on patrol. Will we be discovered?"
Yan Wenkai was stunned. He had never thought about these questions before. He slapped his head in frustration and said, "Look at my memory. How could I have forgotten Qin Wu?"
Defu stepped forward at the right moment and said, "Fourth Master, I've found a place I've found, but I'm not sure if it's suitable. How about we go over there and take a look together?"
Yan Wenkai nodded in agreement without thinking: "Let's go and take a look." After that, he pulled Defu away.
For a moment, only Daohua and Xiao Yeyang were left outside the Chuihua Gate.
Seeing Daohua stretching her neck and looking around from time to time, wanting to play but also afraid of being discovered, Xiao Yeyang smiled and said, "If you are so worried, why did you come here?"
Daohua's expression froze, and she couldn't speak directly. She came here to ask why he suddenly ignored her, so she just casually said, "My fourth brother likes to drink, and I have to keep an eye on him, lest he drink too much and get punished by our parents."
Xiao Yeyang smiled: "If you're worried that Wen Kai will drink too much, why not just give him a smaller jar of wine? Why bother running over here?"
Feeling that her excuse had been exposed, Daohua became angry and glared at Xiao Yeyang fiercely: "Xiao Yeyang, do you really have to quarrel with me? I followed you here just to go to the rooftop to drink and admire the moon, what's wrong?"
Xiao Yeyang chuckled softly, his face and eyes filled with a thick smile: "How dare I do anything to Miss Yan? Naturally, I will obey Miss Yan's orders in everything."
Daohua snorted, "I don't dare to accept it. The young prince is of noble status. When he is happy, he pays attention to me. When he is unhappy, he just throws me aside without even a glance. And you still obey my orders? You are not afraid of getting your tongue bitten when you talk big."
Xiao Yeyang's eyes flashed. Seeing Daohua's angry look, he knew that she was talking about the fact that he deliberately alienated her when she came to Yan's house this time. Just as he was about to say something, he heard voices coming from a distance. He reached out and pulled Daohua's hand directly, taking her to hide under the shade of the tree at the corner of the wall.
Daohua wanted to shake off Xiao Yeyang's hand the moment he reached out, but at this moment, she also heard the sound and was startled.
Although she was at home, she ran out late at night with Xiao Yeyang by her side. If her grandmother, parents knew about this, she would definitely be punished.
Moreover, this is ancient times, and if this matter were to become public, it would definitely be very unpleasant.
So, she could only let Xiao Yeyang pull her to hide in the corner.
Under the shade of the tree, Daohua nervously looked at Qin Wu who was walking towards them from a distance. In order to avoid being discovered, she involuntarily moved closer to Xiao Yeyang and tried to hide her body behind the tree.
Xiao Yeyang watched with a silent smile. When Daohua came closer, he leaned forward a little to get closer to her.
When Daohua came out, she had just taken a shower and the scent of shower gel still lingered on her body.
Smelling the faint fragrance emanating from Daohua, Xiao Yeyang was a little dazed. He couldn't help but rubbed the hand that was tightly holding Daohua's hand. Then he thought of something and immediately stopped. He just stared at Daohua's cheek in the hazy moonlight.
On Daohua's side, seeing Qin Wu and several guards getting closer and closer, her heart couldn't help but rise to her throat. She felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have run out so late at night, and at the same time she felt a little resentful towards her fourth brother.
If Fourth Brother was here, she would have a reason to explain even if she was discovered.
Now it’s just her and Xiao Yeyang. If someone doesn’t know, they would think they are having a secret meeting.
tryst
When she thought of this word, Daohua's heart trembled, and her attention was finally diverted away from Qin Wu. When she paid attention, she found that she and Xiao Yeyang were very close, almost leaning in his arms.
He was startled and leaned back involuntarily.
Fortunately, Xiao Yeyang was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and pulled the rice flowers over, preventing them from falling.
But with this pull, the force was quite strong and Daohua crashed directly into Xiao Yeyang's arms. In order to prevent Daohua from being exposed again, Xiao Yeyang put his other hand around Daohua's shoulders and held her tightly in his arms.
Daohua felt that this posture was too intimate and instinctively wanted to struggle, but at this time Xiao Yeyang said: "Be passive, your guards are coming!"
In an instant, Daohua didn't dare to move. She felt awkward and embarrassed and let Xiao Yeyang hold her.
Xiao Yeyang put one arm around Daohua's shoulders and held her hand tightly with the other, not daring to move.
There was no other reason. The tilt of the rice flower made a noise. Qin Wu was very alert and was walking towards this side carefully with his guards.
Just when Qin Wu was only a few meters away from the corner, suddenly, there was a noise from the roof, as if something was running by.
Seeing this, Qin Wu immediately took his men to chase after him.
Seeing that the person had left, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, both of them noticed their overly intimate behavior, and separated quickly as if they had been electrocuted, then turned their heads away, not daring to look at each other.
After a while, Xiao Yeyang turned around and glanced at Daohua carefully. Seeing that she was angry, he didn't know whether it was because of embarrassment or anger. He said with a guilty conscience: "You can't blame me for this. You didn't stand firmly, so I pulled you."
Daohua was choked with anger and glared at Xiao Yeyang fiercely, but she also knew that she really couldn't blame Xiao Yeyang, so she could only feel upset alone.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yeyang was helpless and reached out to pull her sleeve: "Okay, don't be angry, I will pay attention next time."
Daohua shook off his pull and was about to speak when Yan Wenkai and Defu ran over stealthily.
"Fourth brother, where have you been? Why did you take so long to come back?"
Seeing his sister looking at him angrily, Yan Wenkai was puzzled. He glanced at Xiao Yeyang, who looked a little evasive, and immediately understood that the two must have been arguing again. He immediately curled his lips and said, "Sister, you have a conflict with the little prince, don't take it out on me. I am your fourth brother, you have to respect me."
Daohua was so angry at him that she turned her head away and said nothing.
Xiao Yeyang quickly changed the subject and asked, "Have you found a place to enjoy the moon and drink?"
Yan Wenkai smiled and said, "I found it. There's an old sycamore tree in the empty yard next door. It's lush and leafy, and it just covers a corner of the roof. We can drink up there, and the guards won't see us."
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua, deliberately raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you still dare to go?" After a pause, he added, "Could it be that you were scared just now?"
Daohua didn't want to climb the roof anymore, but when she heard this, she immediately said, "Whoever is scared, go ahead."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang curled his lips and made a gesture of invitation: "Then let's go."
As soon as she said that, Daohua felt a little regretful, but it was not easy for her to refuse at this moment. She stomped her feet and had to follow.
