Chapter 221 - The Rain of Peach Blossoms Began in an Instant
He really didn’t know the reason, but he indeed wanted to know the exact reason.
Jun Yeyan looked at Nalan Youhong’s puzzled eyes and sighed softly. He raised his head slightly and looked at the blue sky. Then he said lightly, “There is no reason… There is no reason at all. I just can’t let her go. I would rather let go of anything and even myself than let her go. She means too much to me as if pressing a heavy stone on my heart, and my body will disintegrate as long as she is gone.”
Nalan Youhong looked at Jun Yeyan’s appearance at this moment, and his heart seemed to be crushed by a big stone, which nearly made him unable to breathe.
The coal-black eyes at this moment had some amber lights and tended to be golden under the refraction of the sunlight, with emotions he had never seen before. But the simile at his corners of the mouth was so bitter.
This was not… Jun Yeyan he knew well!
He knew that when he was furious, his pupil color would change, but he never thought that as long as he talked about Bai Aoxue, Jun Yeyan would have changed so greatly.
It was beyond his expectation that the cold man he had known well since he was young would show such an expression at this moment.
Senses like happiness, emotions, and satisfaction mingled together.
“Xue is like this… How can I securely leave her alone to struggle bitterly in this troubled world? How can I securely leave her alone with loneliness? How can I leave her alone to live in this chaotic world without my protection?” The bitter words carried a bit of determination.
Nalan Youhong did not hear the words, which were scattered by the strong wind.
Watching the black clothes disappear gradually, Nalan Youhong came to his senses. He looked up, only to find that Jun Yeyan had gone far.
In any case, as long as he could make some changes, it would be good.
On this side, Bai Aoxue had already come back to the main force. Looking at Bai Aoxue approaching on a horse, Zhao was somewhat puzzled.
Bai Aoxue took down the longbow and handed it over to the man beside Li Xiao. “It’s a very good bow.”
The man took the longbow and noticed that one arrow was missed. He clearly knew that Princess had already used the longbow.
“Let’s go. They will be back soon.” Bai Aoxue did not get into the carriage but rode a horse and moved forward side by side with them.
And Zhao listened to the words of Bai Aoxue. Without any disagreement, he nodded and motioned the people to go on their way.
“Miss. Aren’t you coming in?” Mumian lifted the curtain and looked at Bai Aoxue, asking.
Bai Aoxue shook her head gently. She looked at the front and said, “No. I am really not a person who is suitable for comfort…”
The latter sentence was said in a much lower voice, and no one heard Bai Aoxue’s sarcastic exclamation.
A little while later, just as Bai Aoxue said, Jun Yeyan and Nalan Youhong came back one after another.
“Master.” Zhao looked at Jun Yeyan and wanted to say something but stopped.
Jun Yeyan understandingly nodded and said, “It’s okay. I just killed a few nonentities.”
Zhao listened to the words of Jun Yeyan and felt a little relieved.
Jun Yeyan rode the horse to Bai Aoxue’s side and looked at Bai Aoxue’s indifferent face, knowing in his mind that his actions just now had worried her.
He couldn’t help but say in a soft tone, “Xue. I’m back. ”
Bai Aoxue gave Jun Yeyan a sidelong glance but did not say anything.
Jun Yeyan kept on saying, “Do you think that nonentities like them will hurt me? I just noticed that you were coming and wanted you, the beauty to save me, the hero!”
Jun Yeyan said with no shyness, completely without the coolness in front of Zhao and his fellows.
Bai Aoxue looked at Jun Yeyan like this and said calmly, “I never like to save people. I haven’t played with a longbow for a long time. I just didn’t control my strength well. I’ll directly shoot you through the next time!”
After saying, she gave Jun Yeyan a cold look. There was no hint of a joke in her eyes.
Jun Yeyan looked at Bai Aoxue like this and knew that she was really angry with him. He smiled apologetically and said, “Yes, yes… I will never do that again! I didn’t expect that my Xue would worry about me…, so much!”
Bai Aoxue listened to Jun Yeyan’s shameless words and turned to look at Jun Yeyan. Then she said in amazement, “Good. I really have not thought that you have such a side! What a scoundrel! Who cares about you? Dream on!”
Jun Yeyan looked at Bai Aoxue like this and gently pursed his lips.
“Xue. I’m really very happy. You care and worry about me so much.” A low-pitched voice carried a bit of dullness, but he could not restrain his happy mood.
Bai Aoxue turned her head and met with the phoenix-like eyes of Jun Yeyan, which were as black as midnight.
Looking at Jun Yeyan’s appearance at this moment, Bai Aoxue also had no idea of being angry with him.
“Silly.” She muttered. Bai Aoxue stopped looking at Jun Yeyan.
Her corners of the mouth rose up slightly, with a glowing light.
Zhao and Nalan Youhong, who were behind them, looked at Bai Aoxue’s smile on her face and knew that the contradiction between them had gone. They could not help but follow to smile.
They did not know when Bai Aoxue already had a very important position in their hearts.
“Hey, hey… You two, stop flirting! Aoxue, come and teach me archery! I saw just now that you were so awesome when you shot. If I were to be as valiant and heroic in bearing as you, many women would be fascinated by me.” Nalan Youhong looked at Bai Aoxue and shouted.
He saw clearly just now! Bai Aoxue’s smooth and fluent action was absolutely perfect and spotless!
Her drawing out an arrow and nocking the arrow happened only within a blink of an eye. When he blinked again, the arrow had already left the string and streaked out after cutting through the sky! It was absolutely shocking!
He was dumbfounded.
Jun Yeyan turned to look coldly at Nalan Youhong.
But Bai Aoxue said coolly, “It seems that you are not loyal to Mumian indeed. There are still lots of things that are uncertain, but you are going to hook up with other women. It seems that it is still unknown whether Mumian will marry you!”
Nalan Youhong burst into tears instantly when he heard Bai Aoxue’s words.
Looking at Nalan Youhong like this, everyone smiled unfeignedly at the same time. The atmosphere which was cold just now gradually melted.
On this side, Qi Muyuan, who separated from Bai Aoxue, was also on her road with the team which came out to look for her. After several months, she finally returned to Nanyue Dynasty.
“Time flies by as if a generation has passed! I have not been out for a long time. I’m back again!” Qi Muyuan could not help saying with emotion as she looked at the capital which was still bustling and prosperous.
“Ouch… Princess, please don’t sigh with emotion. You should still think about how to explain to the crown prince after you go back, especially about the thing that you met Miss Bai.” Little Third did not forget to hit her when she was down.
Qi Muyuan listened to Little Third’s words and gave her mouth a sharp twitch. She instantly lost her emotional look which she showed just now and looked at Little Third with much bitter hatred.
“Princess. The crown prince said that as soon as you came back, you had to go to the crown prince’s mansion first.” The bodyguard outside the luxurious carriage said sternly.
Qi Muyuan, hearing the bodyguard’s words, looked at Little Third for help instantly, but Little Third said he could do nothing.
“Well. Then go and see my senior brother first.” Qi Muyuan said downheartedly.
She anxiously thought about what she should say after seeing his brother in her mind.
While Qi Muyuan was still thinking, the carriage which was originally moving on had stopped already.
“Princess, please move. The crown prince’s mansion is here.”
The stern voice outside the carriage rang again, making Qi Muyuan show her teeth.
Little Third gloated.
“I will tell my brother later that it is you who instigated me to go out.” Qi Muyuan gave Little Third a fierce glare and said secretly.
“Princess, I am wrong!” Little Third twitched his corners of the mouth and said in an anxious way.
But Qi Muyuan ignored Little Third and got out of the carriage directly. After looking at the dignified crown prince’s mansion, she felt a shiver in her heart.
“Princess, accept my respect. The crown prince is in the Lian Xue Yard at this moment. The crown prince said that when you came back, you could go to find him there directly.” The old slave, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, saw Qi Muyuan and hurried forward to meet her.
“I see. My brother is so foresighted that he can guess when I will be back.” Qi Muyuan blinked and said admiringly.
After saying, she strode into the mansion of the crown prince.
Looking at those peach blossoms in the courtyard all the way along, Qi Muyuan had mixed feelings in her mind. When she left, the peach blossoms were not in full bloom.
Now they were so beautiful and fantastic, and she had really left for a long time.
Without anyone to lead the way, Qi Muyuan went straight to Lian Xue Yard, the name of which was personally nominated by her brother after he returned.
At first, she didn’t know what it meant. Later, she accidentally heard about the meaning from Suxiao, making her shocked beyond comparison. Then she came up with the idea of seeing Bai Aoxue.
Entering the Lian Xue Yard, Qi Muyuan’s eyes were filled with omnipresent pink blossoms, clusters after clusters, delicate and charming.
As soon as the wind blew over, the peach blossoms swirled down one after another, just like the peach blossom rain, beautiful and thrilling.
Qi Muyuan looked at the man who sat on the cane chair under the peach blossom tree with his eyes closed, feeling a daze in her mind.
The man’s white clothes were whiter than snow, and his jet-black hair was free from any restraint, so it fell so freely. Under the refraction of the sunlight, it looked like the pitch-black but bright silks and satins.
The cinnabar mole on his forehead was enchanting and holy. His light thin lips slightly curved as if having made a fond dream. His skin was translucent and glittering with a slight light.
It made people feel incredible to the extreme.
“How? My little sister has gone out just once. Don’t you even recognize your brother now?” As if he had just woken up, he said in a somewhat husky male voice, unexpectedly having the fatal bewitchment.
Qi Muyuan, who was already obsessed when looking at the man, could not help stamping her foot after hearing the man’s ridicule and then said, “Brother, you tease me again!”
Qi Liange sat on the cane chair and slowly opened his eyes, with some confusion in his eyes, as if he had just woken up. With some unassuming watery lights, his eyes were as enchanting as peach blossoms.
“You didn’t even send a message when you ran out. Didn’t you know that our queen mother would be worried?” Qi Liange looked at his sister in front of him and said helplessly.
His eyes like peach blossoms were filled with pampering, without a trace of calculation and wisdom, which those outsiders saw.
Qi Muyuan looked at Qi Liange and smiled slyly. She said, “Brother, do you know who I met when I went out this time?”
Qi Liange looked at Qi Muyuan’s proud appearance and couldn’t help laughing. Then he said, “Who could you meet? Who else do you know besides the people of the Nanyue Dynasty?”
Qi Muyuan listened to Qi Liange’s disdainful tone and snorted. She said, “I met a beautiful and powerful woman, and she saved me from a bully!”
Qi Liange listened to his sister’s words, only feeling that she met a chivalrous woman walking around all corners of the country, without thinking deeply.
Qi Muyuan looked at Qi Liange’s appearance and smiled gently, showing an expression which meant that she seemed to have known everything. She said, “I met the person you want to see most at this moment!”
