Chapter 115 - Warm Embrace

The embrace was warm, the hands holding her were strong but gentle and the chest was sturdy.

"Do you like bumping into my chest that much?" A deep and sexy voice was heard from above her head.

Hearing the voice, Jiang Ying Yue was startled. "Shao Qing?"

She hurriedly turned her head and saw him. But this time, he had a mask covering half of his face.

"En." He replied.

The other four persons behind were startled as well. Fan Xiu was about to rush forward to save her when a shadow beat him up to it and hugged Jiang Ying Yue securely in his embrace.

The man was tall, taller than himself in fact. He had a dark, powerful, cold and authoritative aura to him. By no means was this a person with a simple identity. Who was this man?

Why did Ying Yue look like she was comfortable in his embrace?

Even with the golden mask on, all of them could see that this guy was very good looking, surpassing all of them in terms on looks.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Ying Yue asked, not noticing that her voice was gentler than usual.

"I am here for you of course. I was away for only a few days but you have been naughty huh?" The black bellied said so to indicate their close relationship.

Jiang Ying Yue instantly glared at him. "What do you mean naughty? What did I do? Also who are you to say something like that?"

She was really annoyed. This man came and instantly intruded her life with his words that could anger her to death.

Mu Shao Qing raised his eyebrow. "Hmm? You alluring bees with your beauty was not naughty? And you are my woman."

Jiang Ying Yue instantly rolled her eyes dramatically. "Bah. Where's the bees? Why don't I see it? I am not your woman alright. Stop dreaming."

Mu Shao Qing gave in. "Yes yes. Not yet. Whatever you say my queen."

Jiang Ying Yue punched his sturdy chest as hard she could but it was just a tickle to him. "I am not your queen!"

To others around them, it looked like a playful couple banter. They had never once seen Jiang Ying Yue being this carefree.

Of course, she was more approachable and carefree around them but to the extend of showing this many emotions at the same time was never.

Plus, it was like she felt safe around him just now. Jiang Ying Yue of course did not notice all of these things. In her heart, this man was very annoying.

"Did you miss me?" He asked, not caring about other people's presence at all.

"Of course not. You can go for forever for all I care." Jiang Ying Yue answered in irritation.

To Mu Shao Qing, it looked like a wife complaining instead. "Alright. I won't leave you anymore okay? Shouldn't you introduce me to them?" He asked bossily.

Only then did Jiang Ying Yue remember her friends. She turned around and looked at her friends but saw Fan Xiu's darkened expression. It was subtle but she could see it very clearly despite his calm facade.

Thinking that was because of what she did before, she apologized. "Sorry Fan Xiu. Let's go to the pavilion first before I explain everything."

She owed both Fan Xiu and Liu Weimin explanation and that was what she ought to do.

All of the nodded and skated over to the pavilion but before Jiang Ying Yue could move, Mu Shao Qing beat her to it. He swooped her off her feet like it was the most natural thing to do and Jiang Ying Yue's hands instantly locked on his neck in her panic.

"See? Even you want me to hold you. Don't lie." He said shamelessly. He knew that she didn't want it but he couldn't help but want to hug her a bit more.

Jiang Ying Yue knocked on his chest with one of her hands in exasperation. "What are you doing? Put me down."

"No. I will be your legs instead." He deadpanned.

Her friends saw her being princess carried like that and said nothing. They were just curious, that was all. But Fan Xiu felt like his heart was bleeding. This love rival of his was too strong!

With a swoosh, Mu Shao Qing leaped up and landed on the ground. He then knelt down and picked up Jiang Ying Yue's skirt.

Without saying anything, he helped her wear it causing the girl to feel surprised and embarrassed.

"Hey Shao Qing, let me wear it myself." She was shy. No one had ever done this to her before!

"Stay still and let me help you. I don't want you to catch a cold." He said gently and a hint of reprimand.

The three idiots hiding in the dark was once again shocked! Not only their master talked a lot, but he also knelt down and even helped Miss Jiang wear her skirt!

It seemed like Miss Jiang would surely be their mistress.

Jiang Ying Yue stiffened and just let him be. She wanted to ask why was he here a in the real reason why and why was he wearing a mask. She had an inkling of maybe it was because of his identity. But she kept her mouth shut.

Her heart felt warm at the man's caring gesture towards her. But then.. she laughed out loud!

Why? Because the cold and powerful man in front of her was struggling on putting on her skirt!

How cute!

His confused and frustrated face amused her to the core. This man was trying his best ah. This pervert was really cute!

Despite calling him a pervert, Jiang Ying Yue noticed that Mu Shao Qing actually remained a gentleman and did not touch her at inappropriate places. He even kept a bit of distance when he tried to put the skirt around her waist.

Hearing her melodious laugh, the man looked at the woman under him. For a moment, their eyes interlocked and Jiang Ying Yue saw gentleness hidden in that icy-blue eyes of his.

Then she hurriedly averted her eyes away. "Shao Qing, do you need help?" She knew that this man was stubborn so instead of offering to wear it on her own, she offered to help him instead.

Mu Shao Qing's ears turned red in embarrassment. He really wanted to help her but he didn't know how to do this simple thing. How embarrassing!

But Jiang Ying Yue didn't think the same way. His action meant that he had never done this before and this satisfied her to the core.

"En. Just tell me what to do." He said.

Jiang Ying Yue chuckled and told him what to do. They were done in no time and Mu Shao Qing could only regretfully let her go.

All of their actions didn't go unnoticed by Fan Xiu. Of course, the others did look at them for a bit of time too but they ignored them to give them their privacy.

They just focused on breaking the ice skating shoe with the help of their own elements.

Fan Xiu was still wondering who was that man? Why was he so close to Ying Yue? When did they meet?

He had a lot of of questions in his head but he knew that he needed to keep himself calm.

He had never seen Jiang Ying Yue laughed that heartily and sincerely before.

The hands hidden in his sleeves formed into a fist.
