Chapter 85 - The First …

More and more water poured into the bottom of the pleasure boat, and everyone jumped into the river in an attempt to preserve their lives.

Tian Sisi faced the calm surface of the river, and laughed and cried at the same time.

She had just been cured of her poison, if not for Xiao Qingqian saying that she wanted to have a different memory compared to her during tonight's Lantern Festival, she would definitely not have endured the pain and followed him out.

He had once said that he would treat her well for the rest of his life. No matter who he married, she would be the one he used all his strength to protect!

She thought of all that she had experienced, all that darkness without daylight. Every time she thought of it, it was like a nightmare.

It was Xiao Qingqian, like a ray of sunlight shining in, giving her a warm feeling.

"Your Highness, how can you treat me like this?" She shouted at the river's surface, towards a figure that was almost invisible.

However, Xiao Qingqian's heart was currently filled with Wei Qing and Chu Yin, how could he possibly hear them?

The hidden guard looked at Tian Sisi, who had such a sorrowful expression, and knocked her out a little helplessly.

On the surface of the river, Xiao Qingqian and Chu Yin were both people with high cultivation, and they were definitely on par with each other.

However, just as Xiao Qingqian was about to jump onto the boat, Wei Qing threw a handful of poison powder at him.

Xiao Qingqian frowned, he anxiously held his breath and retreated.

It was this short gap that allowed Chu Yin to escape Xiao Qingqian's pursuit.

He turned his head and looked at Xiao Qingqian who was extremely frustrated. With a smile, he grabbed onto Wei Qing's wrist and pulled her into his embrace.

Her nose touched his firm chest, a little sour.

"Little girl, I really like you!"

Hearing his heavy voice, Wei Qing fell into a trance for a moment.

How could she not like him?

They were destined to end up with nothing, so why did they have to pay so much for each other?

While still in a daze, Chu Yin put his other hand on her waist, lightly tapped on the boat with the tip of his foot, and immediately flew up.

Wei Qing was afraid that she would fall into the river, so she hugged him tightly. This feeling of being dependent on him made her heart feel extremely sweet.

However, in Xiao Qingqian's eyes, it was as if a ball of fire had ignited in his heart.

He vexedly swung his inner strength towards the small boat. The fierce inner strength seemed to transform into an axe that could split a mountain, directly chopping the small boat into two halves.

"Rumble!" The deafening sound made Wei Qing's heart jump, and she turned to look at Xiao Qingqian.

"Don't be afraid!" Chu Yin's warm voice came out from the top of his head.

Wei Qing said angrily: "I am still his wangfei after all!"

Since he had decided to stop the damage in time, he should not drag his feet!

Wei Qing said this because she hoped that he would let her go.

However, Chu Yin said with a tone that did not allow for any discussion, "Just take it as I kidnapped you!"

Wei Qing's mouth twitched.

"Why?"

"It's not a difficult matter. I need to explain everything to you, or else … …"

Otherwise, no matter what, Chu Yin had not said it out loud. Wei Qing also did not want to continue asking, so he only took a deep breath and allowed himself to fly to the shore while carrying him.

Xiao Qingqian watched from afar as they flew to the other side of the river, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

After hurriedly returning to the Prince Chu’s Mansion, hearing that Tian Sisi had returned safely, he brought the hidden guards and quickly flew to the other side of the river.

However, after searching almost everywhere on the other side of the river, he still couldn't find Wei Qing's location!

"Prince, could you have seen wrongly?" Chen Cheng asked boldly.

Xiao Qingqian's entire body released an ice-cold and terrifying aura, "How is that possible?"

"Search!" After a long while, Xiao Qingqian squeezed out a word from between his teeth.

The dark guards quickly dispersed to search for him.

Chu Yin brought Wei Qing to the courtyard in the outskirts of the city. Here, she maintained the same appearance as before she left. She looked around and felt a bit sour in her heart, "Why did you bring me here?"

She was certain that this was Chu Yin's secret location for all these years. If Xiao Qingqian found this place, it would definitely affect him greatly.

Chu Yin held her shoulders, and her eyes filled with sincerity.

"Little girl, ever since you left, I have never had such a peaceful moment."

"You …"

Before she could finish, Chu Yin had already pressed her lips against his.

Surprised, she quickly retreated. The temperature on her face suddenly rose as she found herself stuttering.

"Why would I feel at peace?" he continued.

Wei Qing did not utter a word. She averted her gaze and did not meet his gaze that was as gentle as autumn water.

"That's because of you!"

These five words, were like stones that fell into a river, causing ripples on the surface of Wei Qing's lake of heart.

She looked at him in astonishment, and her eyes became more and more sore.

The first man to risk his life for her!

The first man she had ever been tempted by!

But, he was a Prince of the Southern Kingdom!

Her emotions were getting more and more chaotic, to the point that she brushed his hand away without a care and rushed out.

Chu Yin focused on her figure, feeling extremely stifled in his heart. He hurriedly chased after her, hugging her tightly in his embrace.

Wei Qing's back was tightened into a line, and her heart was beating even faster.

"Let go!" she roared.

It was as if this was enough to fortify her confidence and prevent her from drowning in the tenderness he gave her.

Hearing this, not only did Chu Yin not let go of her, he used both of his arms to continuously push.

She felt as if his arms were solid vines that were tightening around her. She didn't know if it was because of his arms or because she couldn't face this scene and felt more and more stuffy.

"Let go!" She used almost all her strength to free her arms.

Chu Yin directly blocked her way, grabbed her cheeks, and madly kissed her on the lips.

She gritted her teeth and pushed him.

Of course, the more she resisted, the fiercer his kiss became.

Until he managed to pry open her teeth and entangle her cloves, her strength was exhausted by the struggle.

She let him kiss her as if such intimate actions could change her mind.

After the kiss ended, Chu Yin reluctantly let go of her.

Under the moonlight, her face was like a thin cloud of pink. He leaned against her forehead and softly whispered, "If I were not the seventh prince of the Southern Kingdom, would you be willing to marry me?"

At this moment, Wei Qing's brain felt like it was filled with paste.

Chu Yin's heart was stirred up. He took a deep breath and said: "Then, even if I'm the Seventh Prince of the Southern Kingdom, I am still me. Why are you hiding from me and saying such heart-wrenching words?"
