Chapter 21 A Little High



Chapter 21 A bit high

The guards of the Huo Gang did not wait for the news that the fourth personal guard would take office, but instead received the order that Yun Chen would be transferred out.

Ye Yan thought about it in depression for the whole morning, but he couldn't figure out why no matter how hard he tried.

Are Yun Chen’s recent great achievements not enough to appease his past offenses against Huo Gannian?

He felt that the young master was too petty!

Hua Jue rushed directly into Huo Gannian's study to plead for mercy, but was rejected by Huo Gannian with a cold face.

Finally, Bu Yan muttered in Hua Jue's ear for half an hour, and the two of them rushed into the room where Huo Gannian's personal servant was sleeping.

Without saying anything, he put Runhe into a sack, carried it on his back and left.

Runhe screamed in fear: "No protection! What are you doing?"

Bu Yan patted Run He's butt on his shoulder and said with a smile:

"Your mother said she missed you, I'll take you home to see her!"

Run He struggled hard, "It's not my day to rest yet. I have to serve the young master at a private banquet today! The young master said that this private banquet is very important and he can only bring one person, and he must take me with him!"

Bu Yan smiled sinisterly: "Today is your day off! Don't worry about the young master, Yun Chen is here!"

"Ah?" Without waiting for Runhe to react, Buyan used his lightness skills to run quickly, and he rode out of the house with his horse and disappeared without a trace with Runhe.

In the room, the other two servants witnessed the whole process of Runhe being "kidnapped" with their own eyes, and were stunned with fear.

Hua Jue folded his arms, looked down at people, and asked condescendingly:

"Usually if Runhe has something to do, you two will take over his shift and serve the young master, right?"

The two servants nodded hurriedly like chickens pecking at rice. Seeing Hua Jue's frown, they snorted with extreme displeasure, "Hmm?" and shook their heads frantically.

A servant crawled under the quilt, clutching his chest:

"Ouch, my stomach hurts. I can't replace Runhe today."

Another boy followed suit and quickly lay down on the bed:

"My head hurts, and I can't replace it."

Hua Jue nodded with satisfaction and left.

Ye Yan was outside listening to Hua Jue and Buyan's fuss, turning a blind eye and pretending nothing happened.

After noon, when Huo Gannian was calling "Runhe" in the dormitory, Buyan had already rushed back and dragged Yunchen forward with Hua Jue.

Yun Chen was pulled to the door of Huo Gannian's room, confused: "Young Master called me?"

Hua Jue quickly tidied Yun Chen's clothes, straightened his collar, pulled his sleeves, re-tied his belt, and even took some jasmine oil to apply on Yun Chen's hair.

While looking at Yun Chen's face from left to right, he said:

"Stinky boy, be smart when you get in there, don't make the young master angry, do you hear me?"

Bu Yan continued, "Today is an important private banquet. The other family's master only allows guests to bring one person with them. This is your chance to be alone with the young master! Today you will be both a guard and a servant. Do you remember what Runhe usually does? Just learn from him. You are so smart, you will definitely do better than him! As long as you take good care of the young master, the young master will definitely be moved. He will never be able to get enough of you. How can he bear to send you away..."

Seeing that it was getting dark before he continued talking, Ye Yan interrupted him and held Yun Chen's shoulders, saying earnestly:

"This opportunity is rare, seize it!"

After saying that, Ye Yan quickly pushed Yun Chen, who had been neatly dressed, into Huo Gannian's room.

When a "brand new and beautiful" Yun Chen appeared in front of Huo Gannian who had just woken up from a nap, the latter was obviously stunned.

Huo Gannian was only wearing a moon-white dress, sitting on the bed with his arms propped up, his face looking sleepy and soft as if he had just woken up.

"What's wrong with you..." Huo Gannian had just said a few words when Ye Yan, whose face was flushed just now, walked in from the side with unsteady steps and said listlessly:

"Master, please forgive me. I have a sudden high fever. Please grant me leave."

Huo Gannian naturally agreed to the request of this guard who was loyal to his duty and had not been sick for eight hundred years.

Ye Yan was about to leave when Huo Gannian called him back:

"Call Runhe."

"Runhe is on leave to go back to see my mother. The other two servants ate something wrong yesterday and are sick."

Perhaps because he had just woken up, Huo Gannian was still in a good mood and asked again, "Where are Hua Jue and Buyan?"

Ye Yan replied, "Hua Jue said he accidentally fell from the roof and hit his face. Bu Yan's tongue hurts, so he went to see a doctor outside. Young Master, let Yun Chen escort you to the banquet today."

Yun, whose name was called, looked confused.

Huo Gannian looked at her and felt his eyebrows twitching.

An hour later.

Under Yun Chen's extremely unfamiliar and clumsy care, Huo Gannian barely put on his coat and got into the carriage.

Yancheng is located in the southeast of Nan State, surrounded by lakes and numerous islands. It got its name because of the frequent rain and fog throughout the year.

The private banquet was held on Egret Island, the closest island to the city.

When Yun Chen drove a carriage to escort Huo Gannian to the destination, he saw a mansion with high walls and heavily guarded.

The guards around were all wearing armor and had swords on their waists, looking like personal soldiers. It seemed that this master had some connection with the palace.

When Yun Chen and Huo Gannian entered the room, the guards removed all of Yun Chen's weapons before allowing them to enter.

The banquet was held in the central courtyard. Although the place was not large, it was exquisitely decorated and the food and wine were luxurious.

Judging from the accents and attire of the guests present, firstly, they were all very distinguished, and secondly, except for Huo Gannian, none of the others were from Yancheng and seemed to have come from all directions.

What surprised Yun Chen the most was that there was a woman sitting in the main seat.

The first time Yun Chen saw the woman, his eyes widened.

For the first time, she knew what it meant to be as beautiful as a fairy and beyond compare.

The woman in the main seat wore a half veil, revealing only a pair of eyes as deep and brilliant as the starry night.

Her long, black hair fell on her back, and her skin, as white as mutton-fat jade, was hidden in her snow-white robe.

All the guests around were dressed in luxurious clothes, and all the decorations were gorgeous and complicated. Only the woman was wearing a white dress with a simple blue ribbon, but her whole body exuded a kind of grace and elegance like a god.

When the woman looked around and smiled, Yun Chen instantly felt that the small courtyard became bright and lively.

It seemed that because of the presence of that woman, this central courtyard was comparable to a palace in heaven.

She really interpreted for Yun Chen what it meant that "beauty makes this humble place shine."

Yun Chen was completely stunned, unable to move her eyes away. It was not until Huo Gannian called her name for the third time that she reacted.

Huo Gannian said with a cold face, "Have you seen enough? If you have, push me to wash my hands!"

"Young Master, please forgive me." When Yun Chen said this, his eyes still involuntarily looked at the woman.

The woman in the main seat was probably used to being stared at, used to other people's gazes of amazement and admiration, or secret and greedy scrutiny.

But it was the first time she had ever seen Yun Chen look at her so openly and directly, without a trace of distracting thoughts, and she couldn't help but look back at Yun Chen.

The two men's eyes met in the air. The woman in the main seat didn't care about the difference in status at all. She smiled at Yun Chen and nodded in greeting.

Yun Chen's face turned red instantly.

After all, it was the first time that Yun Chen saw such a beautiful woman, and he was a little overwhelmed.

Seeing this, Huo Gannian glanced at Yun Chen and said, "You are useless. Don't keep staring at the host. It will be disrespectful."

Yun Chen hurriedly lowered his head and absentmindedly pushed Huo Gannian to the bathroom.
