“Go back by yourself. I’ll play with Yin Qiao.” Jing Yue shook off Xiao Chen’s hand and was about to leave.
“Stop.” Xiao Chen changed his expression, and grabbed Jing Yue’s arm.
“What are you doing?”
Jing was so annoyed. She really hated to get along with Xiao in this way. Clearly he had no interest in coming out but he agreed; though he came out, he showed an upsetting face as if someone owed him a huge sum of money, which was totally unbearable to her.
“If you want to see flowers, I’ll show you somewhere else.” Xiao Chen took a deep breath. Looking at the chaotic streets around him, he couldn’t get interested.
“Where shall we go?” Jing Yue blinked her eyes and asked.
“Follow me.” As Jing made a concession, Xiao slowly relieved a breath and took her away from the street. Turning over, he stepped on the steed, and reached out a hand to Jing Yue.
Jing Yue looked at Xiao Chen and after a while of hesitation hold out her hand to him. They rode on one horse together and flew towards the edge of the Imperial City where there was a high mountain. Jing Yue was protected by Xiao Chen in her bosom. They made a detour all the way to avoid crowded roads and then came to the mountain foot.
“Here? Here’s nothing.” Jing Yue blinked confusedly while Xiao Chen was fastening his horse, asking.
“Go up.” Looking around and making sure there were few people here, he breathed with relief, took her hand and stepped up the mountain. Along the way was the lush bush around. Jing’s mood also calmed down. They mounted and stopped; Jing bounced all the way. Then Xiao’s face was also tinged with smile.
“Xiao Chen, you should smile more often.” Jing Yue saw Xiao Chen’s soft smile and said, “Look, how nice it looks.”
Xiao Chen didn’t reply, but the smile on his lips deepened.
“At last we reached the top!” Jing sat on the stone steps gasping for breath, looking at Xiao who was breathing calmly. She suddenly glared at him and complained, “Why aren’t you tired while we have been walking all the time?”
“I have inner power, so this short distance was a piece of cake for me.” said Xiao Chen, one eyebrow cocked.
“That means you could’ve actually flew up with Qing Gong (a kind of Chinese ancient Kung Fu, more specifically Lightness Skill that enables people to move quickly like flying)?” Jing Yue looked stiff and stared at Xiao Chen.
“Sure I could.” With a moment of thinking, Xiao nodded slowly.
“My goodness! You can fly. Why didn’t you say it earlier? I walked so much!” Jing Yue immediately jumped up, looking at Xiao Chen with a complaint.
“I thought you were enjoying it so that I forgot.” Xiao said blandly, but Jing was chocked by his words, and her heart was roaring at that.
“Which eye of yours saw me enjoying!”
“I’ve been really worn out!”
Jing Yue stared at Xiao Chen with bitterness. Her angry face was especially lovely. He pulled her hand and said, “Don’t you want to see flowers? Come with me.” Then he led her into a path full of branches and walked all the way in.
They walked through the shady path, and suddenly saw the bright light appear before them. Jing was exposed to the wild chrysanthemums all over the mountains and plains. She stood at the path exit and looked at the beautiful scene with a shocked expression.
“How… How come you know here?!” Jing Yue’s eyes were full of colorful chrysanthemums and butterflies dancing in the flowers.
