Chapter 533: marry the prince
Chapter 533 Marrying the Prince
The other party was so generous, Pei Yi felt a little embarrassed.
She refused: "I'd better go by myself."
Huo Yuan turned his head and didn't speak, just looked at her silently.
In this silent confrontation, Pei Yi was defeated in embarrassment, leaning on Huo Yuan's back with a slightly red face.
She just touched Huo Yuan, Huo Yuan immediately caught her leg, and immediately picked her up.
This movement was so fast, Pei Yi was surprised, and quickly stretched out her hands to wrap around Huo Yuan's neck, to prevent herself from leaning back due to inertia.
Laughter came from the front, mixed with the delicate sound of rain, it seemed a little vague.
Immediately afterwards, she heard Huo Yuan teasing: "No one has ever recited you before."
Pei Yi blushed slightly on her cheeks, and asked strangely, "Why do you say that?"
Huo Yuan walked very steadily, inexplicably giving people a very reliable sense of dependence on this rainy night.
He smiled and said, "Don't you know that when someone carries you on their backs, you can't wrap your arms around someone's neck?"
Pei Yi realized that she didn't have a sense of proportion in her hands, and quickly moved the hands around Huo Yuan's neck down.
She panicked with embarrassment on her face, and asked in a low voice in embarrassment: "Is this okay?"
Huo Yuan quickly answered her, with a clear voice full of ridicule: "It's okay."
The blush on Pei Yi's face deepened a little, like the sunset glow slowly smeared dark colors from the shallowest part of the clouds.
The sound of rain hitting the umbrella surface, tick-tock, more and more dense.
Pei Yi thought it was not easy for this man to carry her behind his back with one hand while holding an umbrella in the other.
It was night, and it was very quiet, except for the sound of rain, there were almost no other sounds.
She unconsciously suppressed her voice when she spoke, so as not to appear abrupt in the middle of the night.
She suggested loudly: "Kubira, how about I take an umbrella?"
Huo Yuan chuckled lightly and said, "Let's forget it."
Pei Yi felt sorry, and insisted: "I'll do it."
Huo Yuan laughed in a low voice, and joked slowly: "If you hold an umbrella, you will only have one arm around me, and it will definitely be around my neck again."
Pei Yi's face became hot, and she promised embarrassingly, "No."
Huo Yuan just smiled wickedly and didn't answer.
Pei Yi felt that she was being despised, and her cheeks turned slightly red again.
She defended very seriously: "If I'm holding you back, just tell me, and I'll change it right away."
Huo Yuan smiled softly and said: "Forget it, my Lord Pei."
The three words "Lord Pei" were supposed to convey a sense of alienation and respect, but when they came out of his mouth, there was a bit of ridicule and a lot of pampering, which turned into a kind of taste that is not humane .
Pei Yi's heart was touched inexplicably, and her cheeks became flushed.
She wanted to argue again, but Huo Yuan said with a smile: "You are not heavy, I can carry it on my back."
His voice is a bit deeper than before, more manly and less clear than a young man.
Pei Yi inexplicably felt her ears tingle, and her already flushed cheeks suddenly turned a little red to the point of burning hot.
Although it was late autumn, Huo Yuan didn't dress very thickly.
His body temperature spread along the back of the clothes to Pei Yi's chest, so warm that Pei Yi's cheeks seemed to heat up.
She suddenly felt embarrassed and insisted on holding an umbrella by herself.
The rain was falling so densely that it was hard to tell which drop was which when it hit the umbrella surface.
The sound of rain came from all directions.
The world seemed inexplicably lonely.
Pei Yi suddenly had the illusion that she and Huo Yuan were trapped in the rain and fog, as if they were the only two left in this world.
She subconsciously raised a hand and touched Huo Yuan's forehead.
Huo Yuan teased with a light smile: "What are you doing, Mr. Pei?"
Pei Yi panicked with embarrassment on her face, and said in a low voice honestly: "I see if you are sweating."
Huo Yuan turned her upside down, as if to adjust his strength, and then said with a light smile: "This is a long way to go, so I won't be sweating profusely."
Hearing this, the heat on Pei Yi's cheeks couldn't go down.
She lowered her head, but accidentally found that half of Huo Yuan's shoulders were wet.
The man almost tilted most of his umbrella towards her, but he didn't cover it much.
Pei Yi was moved and felt guilty.
She quickly suggested: "Kubira, give me the umbrella."
Although it was a suggestion this time, the tone was much tougher, and there was no discussion in the words.
Huo Yuan sneered and said, "It's quite domineering."
I haven't seen him for several months, his voice is a little more mellow than before, and it sounds a little intoxicating.
Pei Yi felt as if her ears were going to burn, and deliberately asked with a tigery face, "Will you give it?"
Huo Yuan smiled lightly, and said slowly: "Here."
In just one word, it brings out endless pampering.
Pei Yi felt as if her heartbeat missed a beat.
Huo Yuan raised his hand, and compared the handle of the umbrella to a position where she could probably get it.
Pei Yi stretched out her hand to hold the handle of the umbrella, but inadvertently touched Huo Yuan's hand.
Although it was only a brief touch, Pei Yi felt as if her hand had been electrocuted, and a fine numbness instantly spread from the point of contact to the whole hand.
Huo Yuan originally supported her with one hand, but now that one hand is free, he quickly supported her with both hands.
Pei Yi clearly felt that the man had changed from one hand gently supporting her buttocks to two hands overlapping to support her here.
Although she felt that Huo Yuan didn't mean to take advantage of her, when the man's big hand brushed her buttocks through the clothes, Pei Yi still felt shy, and her cheeks that had finally turned pale were gradually turning red again. up.
The rain is still falling, lingering, and it won't stop overnight if it continues.
The road from the city gate to Xiao Pei's mansion is not short.
Huo Yuan walked steadily, but not fast.
As a result, Pei Yi felt that although she had been walking for a long time, it seemed that she hadn't even covered half of the distance.
Although she was not in a hurry, she was a little worried—no matter how light she was, she was still an adult woman who was close to 1.7 meters.
Huo Yuan walks in the rain with her, a "tall and big" woman on his back, how can he hold on?
Thinking about this, Pei Yi said incredulously: "Kubira, let me down."
This was supposed to be a suggestion, but there was no room for negotiation at all.
Huo Yuan asked with a good temper: "What's wrong?"
Pei Yi held an umbrella to cover the man tightly, and whispered: "I want to go by myself."
Huo Yuan asked: "Do you feel uncomfortable when I carry it like this?"
Pei Yi was afraid that the man might misunderstand, so she quickly explained: "No."
Huo Yuan asked: "Then why do you have to go by yourself?"
Pei Yi blushed slightly, and said embarrassingly: "The road is too far..."
Huo Yuan took her talk and joked: "Are you afraid I won't be able to hold on?"
Pei Yi felt very embarrassed, blushing and gave a low "hmm".
Huo Yuan smiled disapprovingly and said: "It's just such a little way, so I won't be unable to hold on."
Pei Yi retorted softly: "It's been so long..."
Huo Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked maliciously, "Do you think I'm walking slowly?"
Pei Yi's words were suddenly blocked.
She blushed and denied, "No."
Huo Yuan took it for granted: "That's it."
Pei Yi was so blocked that she had nothing to say, she could only blushed and closed her mouth, silently expressing her agreement.
The curfew in Kyoto is very strict at night, and there are almost no pedestrians on the street.
On weekdays, you can occasionally see bad people on patrol.
But now that it's raining, even bad people can't be seen on the road.
In this way, the street looks more lonely and empty, and the sound of rain is extraordinarily clear.
Pei Yi gradually calmed down.
As Huo Yuan walked slowly, she suddenly had the illusion that Huo Yuan was dependent on each other.
The two of them were so quiet, neither of them said much.
Pei Yi didn't ask Huo Yuan what he was busy with these days.
Huo Yuan didn't ask Pei Yi what she was busy with these days.
The two seem to have an extraordinary tacit understanding on certain issues.
If one holds an umbrella in a certain posture, the hand will be easily sore.
Pei Yi changed her hand and continued to hold the umbrella, and suddenly asked: "Did you appear at the city gate tonight because you wanted to investigate the situation of the Seven Killers?"
Huo Yuan replied in a deep voice without thinking: "Part of the reason is this."
Pei Yi asked: "What is the other part of the reason?"
Huo Yuan pursed his lips and chuckled lightly, and said relaxedly: "Of course it's because of you."
Pei Yi's heart felt as if she was touched by a soft feather, her cheeks slowly turned red.
She scolded: "Can you speak well."
Huo Yuan's voice was inexplicably tinged with melancholy, and he said in a deep voice, "I haven't contacted you for a long time. I want to see you."
Although Pei Yi couldn't see Huo Yuan's expression, just hearing the sudden lonely tone, she couldn't help feeling sad in her heart.
The two of them really haven't been in touch for a long time.
But strictly speaking, it’s only a matter of a few months.
It's just that the two of them had been in touch too frequently before, and comparing the two sides, it seemed that the two hadn't seen each other for hundreds of years.
Pei Yi whispered: "If you want to come to me, you can come anytime."
Huo Yuan laughed lightly and teased: "Couldn't it be you who came to find me?"
Pei Yi's mind was very bright at this moment, as if she had suddenly opened up Ren Du's second vein, and she replied firmly: "Shouldn't you come to me as a man?"
Huo Yuan was amused.
His laughter is like old wine hidden in the cellar for many years, very intoxicating.
Pei Yi's ears trembled, wondering when did this man's voice become so nice.
"That's right." Huo Yuan teased with a smile, "Where is the reason why a girl comes to find a man?"
After hearing this, Pei Yi immediately became more righteous, and said with a righteous face: "You see."
Huo Yuan smiled lightly, and complained half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Master Pei, you always have a reason not to come to me. Can't you take the initiative to come and see me sometime?"
Pei Yi said as a matter of course: "I'm very busy recently."
Huo Yuan sneered, and said teasingly: "I know you are very busy, and you still have to find time at night to send Qisha out of the city gate."
Pei Yi was very embarrassed.
It was only then that she realized belatedly that she had never really considered going to Huo Yuan at home—it had nothing to do with time, but had something to do with her attitude.
Thinking of this, Pei Yi felt a little guilty.
She panicked with embarrassment, and added in a low voice: "I'll visit you when I'm free."
Huo Yuan snorted softly, and complained half-truthfully dissatisfied: "I'm very busy, Mr. Pei."
Pei Yi was feeling guilty at this moment, and wanted to coax this man, so she patiently and kindly discussed: "Then when His Royal Highness is free, I will visit again?"
The title "His Royal Highness" obviously carries the meaning of ridicule and flattery.
Huo Yuan couldn't help pursing his lips into a smile.
Although his face was full of spring breeze, he said with a strong attitude on his mouth: "Master Pei, do you think this king is so easy to coax?"
Although it was Huo Yuan's pretentious gesture, the arrogance in his words and the ease and joy in his tone easily revealed the original state of mind of the speaker.
Pei Yi knew that she had already coaxed the person well, so she laughed and joked: "Your Highness is someone who has seen big storms, how can he be easily coaxed by a little girl?"
Huo Yuan laughed lightly, and turned to say: "Pei Yi, I'm a little hot, please help me wipe my sweat."
Since she returned to the capital, to be precise, since she stepped into the officialdom, Pei Yi seldom hears people calling her by her first and last name.
Originally in today's etiquette, naming names is a very disrespectful way.
But the strange thing is that every time Huo Yuan calls her by her full name and surname, it seems a bit coquettish.
This is like a secret signal of sexual interest - as soon as the signal comes out, you will know that this man's attitude is unusual.
Pei Yi stretched her neck and went around to look at the man's face, but at night, she really couldn't see where the sweat was on the man's face.
She could only pinch her sleeves, and instinctively wiped his forehead lightly, then wiped his cheeks and temples lightly, and then asked cautiously, "Is it finished?"
Huo Yuan smiled and said: "It's the first time you've wiped sweat for someone."
Although this statement is true, Pei Yi always feels that this man is going to say something derogatory again.
She said angrily, "Shut up."
Huo Yuan smiled lightly and continued on his own: "Master Pei, you are very strong. Wiping sweat is like wiping a table. You almost wiped off a layer of skin on my face."
Pei Yi's face became hot, and she retorted unconvinced: "I am obviously very light, but your face is so delicate."
Huo Yuan seemed to be self-deprecating and said with a smile: "Master Pei is right. I am spoiled and spoiled, with delicate skin and tender flesh, I really can't stand it."
Pei Yi knew that this person was talking ironically and teasing her, so she couldn't help feeling embarrassed.
She said with a bit of embarrassment: "Don't ask me to wipe your sweat again, just wait until your eyes are covered with sweat."
Huo Yuan's mouth narrowed, and he lamented pitifully to himself: "Hey, poor..."
Pei Yi snorted in relief, and ignored the man's emotion.
She didn't feel it at first, but after walking for a long time, she realized it belatedly, and the sadness she felt because of Qi Sha's departure had almost dissipated.
Pei Yi suddenly felt...
"Huo Yuan, you came to find me on purpose tonight at the point where Qi Sha left?"
It's the same as Huo Yuan calling her by first name and last name, if she calls Huo Yuan by first name and last name, the meaning will be a bit subtle.
Huo Yuan knew that the little lady was going to ask him to settle the matter, so he said with a broken look: "I heard people say that when a woman is sad, it's the best time to take advantage of it. I'm planning to Lord Pei is dissatisfied with sneaking in tonight?"
Pei Yi's original thought of "invoking the teacher and questioning the crime" was completely wiped out in an instant.
The other party is so frank, but she looks awkward.
Pei Yi's face burned again inexplicably.
She didn't understand, it was obvious that Huo Yuan was always shy in the past, and was always embarrassed to say some ambiguous words, why is this man talking flirtatiously now?
Pei Yi suddenly felt as if she had grasped something, and asked cleverly, "Where did you learn these words?"
Huo Yuan explained with a smirk: "Recently, I was in charge of investigating corrupt officials in Beijing. I often saw them going out and about in sensual occasions. Gradually, I became fascinated by them and got what I wanted."
Pei Yi didn't expect it, and somehow felt a little funny.
She asked with a gossipy smile, "You just got it by your ears, didn't you really experience it yourself?"
Huo Yuan uttered a "tsk", teasing with a bit of resentment: "I said Master Pei, don't you know how to be jealous? If your man really fell in love with someone else, you wouldn't feel sad at all?"
Pei Yi's face suddenly became hot.
She complained angrily: "Don't put gold on your face."
Who is her man now?
What nonsense!
"Post gold?" Huo Yuan deliberately misunderstood her words, "You encourage me to spend time and drink, and this is still called putting gold on my face?"
Pei Yi blushed and stared, "Huo Yuan!"
When Huo Yuan heard her calling him by name, he immediately became honest—he closed his mouth almost the moment she finished speaking, just like turning into a wooden man who couldn't speak in an instant.
Pei Yi's face was red, like a tomato that was overripe and about to rot.
She was quite embarrassed in her heart, and said with a bit of shame: "You put me down, I want to walk by myself."
Huo Yuan coaxed with a good temper: "Master Pei, there is still a long way to go home."
Pei Yi insisted with a straight face: "I want to go by myself."
Huo Yuan still persuaded with a good temper: "There are puddles on the road, and your shoes will get wet."
Pei Yi felt ashamed inexplicably, and insisted angrily: "I'm going to walk by myself. Anyway, my shoes are already wet, so I don't care if they get even more wet."
"Why…"
Huo Yuan sighed softly, as if whispering to himself or sighing with emotion: "Why are you so angry?"
Pei Yi's face was burning hot.
She didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but when Huo Yuan said this, she had an inexplicable sense that she was playing a petty temper.
Thinking about it, it seems that she is indeed playing a small temper.
But since she entered the political situation, she really rarely showed such a mood.
Pei Yi felt extremely embarrassed.
She tried to cover up for herself and said: "I really want to go by myself. The journey is so far, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
Huo Yuan couldn't help laughing softly when he heard that there was a gentle meaning in her words.
He joked: "Master Pei, don't worry about me. Although I am thin and tender, I still have strength."
The heat on Pei Yi's face couldn't go away.
She suddenly felt as if she was coaxed like a child.
She continued to defend herself shyly: "If you really can't hold on, let me down. I won't laugh at you."
"Master Pei." Huo Yuan's voice suddenly sank a bit, seemingly a little unhappy, "I will definitely do it."
Pei Yi choked, and suddenly realized that she had said the wrong thing just now.
How could she say Huo Yuan "no"?
You must not say that a man can't do it.
Pei Yi closed her mouth resentfully, and decided that she must quietly be a wooden figure for the rest of the journey.
Fortunately, Huo Yuan didn't seem to intend to continue talking.
So, the two of them walked slowly and quietly in the rain.
Except for the sound of rain, and the slight sound of footsteps covered by the sound of rain, there are no other sounds.
Huo Yuan felt an indescribable peace in his heart.
After a while, Xiao Pei's mansion was finally within sight.
Pei Yi urged: "It's here, please let me down."
Huo Yuan sneered and said, "I've already walked all the way, and it's not too far behind."
Pei Yi thought about it, but she still didn't want to be carried back to the mansion by the man, so she insisted: "You let me down, I will go back by myself."
Huo Yuan teased with deep meaning: "Master Pei, you look like you stole meat outside and are afraid of being discovered by the court."
Pei Yi began to feel ashamed and flustered again, and her face turned red again.
She retorted embarrassingly and shyly: "I didn't."
Huo Yuan did not let her go like this, but continued to tease Pi Liyangqiu: "Master Pei, am I just so shameless?"
These words were a bit inexplicable, Pei Yi immediately retorted: "How can you be shameless?"
Huo Yuan said: "Then why don't you let me carry you into the mansion? Are you afraid that someone will see me?"
Pei Yi felt inexplicably guilty, and explained with a lack of confidence: "I'm not afraid of anyone seeing you. I just think... I've already reached the door of the house, and I can walk in by myself."
Huo Yuan smiled meaningfully and said: "Master Pei, I am really like your concubine that you kept secretly outside."
"On weekdays, you only care about dealing with the main family at home, and never come to see me."
"Only my outer room misses you all day long."
"I finally worked up the courage to come and see you."
"You are afraid that I will be seen by others, and you will not even let me in at the gate of the house." f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
"Why…"
Huo Yuan let out a long sigh, his voice was mixed with the sound of rain.
He said with melancholy and emotion: "It's hard to do outside..."
Pei Yi's face was flushed red by the man's teasing.
How could she still insist on walking on the ground by herself, so she could only blushed and said in embarrassment: "Why are you expressing emotion? If you don't think it's too much effort, you can just walk in with me behind your back."
Huo Yuan immediately smiled mischievously, and said meaningfully: "Thank you Sanlang for allowing me to come through."
The word "passing the door" is really a bit subtle.
Pei Yi's cheeks flushed, and somehow she had the illusion that she married Huo Yuan tonight.
Really terrible.
