Su Zeyi's gaze swept past the extremely shocked Tang Yao. He didn't plan to say anything more and planned to leave immediately.
On the contrary, the Zhong Miao Yi saw Tang Yao desperately struggling to leave Su Zeyi's embrace.
This girl still did not know what was good for her, the one who had saved her was herself. If she had waited for Tang Yao to come, she would have long been dealt with by that disgusting man!
"Brother Ze Yi!" He put the lantern in his hand to the side on the ground in disbelief, the confusion and heartache in his eyes unable to be hidden.
「 Tang Yao.」 It's not what you think! " The Zhong Miao Yi struggled to get out of Su Zeyi's embrace, but her legs gave way and she threw herself into Su Zeyi's arms. Tang Yao quickly caught her.
Zhong Miao Yi did not know what else she could say as her mind was in a mess. She could only repeat one sentence: "Things are not what you think. There's nothing between him and me. "
It was true that there was nothing, but this scene was still a thorn in his heart, making him feel sorry for it.
Tang Yao's tightly clenched fists gradually loosened. He looked at the silent Su Zeyi with a complicated expression, then covered Zhong Miao Yi with her clothes once more. When he looked at her again, all the grief was already gone. His eyes were still as bright and gentle as ever.
"I'll take you back." His gentle voice actually caused Zhong Miao Yi's heart to gradually calm down.
She didn't want to cry, but her tears were flowing uncontrollably. "Tang Yao." You believe me. There's nothing at all, there's really nothing at all! "
She did not dare to say that the man was filthy. She could only bite her lower lip and repeat the words she had choked out.
Her tears hurt Tang Yao's heart. He reached out his hand to wipe them away, but he didn't care about Su Zeyi's expression. His trembling lips lightly pressed against her forehead as he spoke to Zhong Miao Yi, "I know." I believe in you. I'll take you back.
Seeing that Tang Yao was about to turn around and leave, Su Zeyi finally let out a snort.
Tang Yao was a little angered by this snort. He quickly turned around and glared at Su Zeyi.
Tang Yao's father had just returned to the capital to report on his duty. Although Su Zeyi was young, he was the direct descendant of the entire Su Family and was the only son left in the family. Currently, he had even monopolized half of the authority within the entire Great Qi.
"I can send her back in one piece. No one else will know about this." Su Zeyi did not care about all these. He was silent for a moment, and looked at Zhong Miao Yi's pale face.
Su Zeyi was exhausted of his patience. He dangerously squinted his eyes, and just as he was about to say something more, the sound of someone falling on the ground suddenly came from the bushes nearby.
Su Zeyi immediately grabbed the lantern that Tang Yao had placed to the side, and used the already weak candle light to shine on them. When they clearly saw Yun Mengqi, who was lying on the ground in pain and grimacing in pain, their faces immediately darkened.
Originally, Yun Mengqi had wanted to hide and see how magnificent it would be if Tang Yao were to be exposed and raped. However, she had never thought that Su Zeyi would actually save Zhong Miao Yi!
She crouched down and didn't dare move an inch. Even after Tang Yao arrived, she didn't do anything like she had expected. She had clearly been planning for this, but this was the end of the line!
She had been squatting for too long. Her legs were numb. She stood up too quickly. Her legs couldn't help but fall down. The branches on the ground began to make 'kacha' sounds.
"It's you?!"
At first, Yun Mengqi was a little flustered, but her legs gradually regained their senses and were no longer as numb. She stood up, although her plan did not succeed, she did not need to be afraid of anything.
"Yes, me." She raised her chin deliberately and smirked.
"You arranged this?" Su Zeyi frowned and asked, his tone unconsciously filled with anger, "What the hell are you doing?!"
Seeing that Su Zeyi was truly angered, Yun Mengqi was also a little afraid, but then she thought about how Su Zeyi was angered by her for the sake of a woman like Zhong Miao Yi, and the jealousy in his bones exploded.
She straightened her neck and glared back at him, "On what basis are you saying that I did it!? I did see what happened today, so don't spout nonsense. She was shameless, why did she blame it on me? "
When Tang Yao heard these words, he immediately stepped forward and roared, "Shameless bastard!" It's not like she did anything against the will of the heavens! You are just a young lady, how could you have such a vicious heart! "
Yun Mengqi exploded in anger. She jumped up and was about to fight with Tang Yao and drag him into the forest.
"Take her back, be careful!" Yun Mengqi's personality had always been like this. He knew why Yun Mengqi wanted to do this, and now, the only person left who could still restrain this unruly princess was him.
This time, Tang Yao didn't hesitate. He was the commander, so he was most familiar with changing shifts. Since no one was around at night, he easily brought Zhong Miao Yi back to her tent.
Xiao Yao was about to go crazy from anxiety, but she didn't dare reveal it. Seeing Tang Yao carrying Zhong Miao Yi, wearing only two large male outfits, Xiao Yao almost screamed out in fright.
"What happened to the princess?! Commander Tang, what's wrong with My Princess? " Xiao Yao nodded as she understood, but she still continued to search every part of Zhong Miao Yi's body, and tears continued to flow uncontrollably.
Zhong Miao Yi had always been in a muddled and drifting state. The moment Yun Mengqi stood out, she confirmed her guess.
She had always known that the world was full of hardships and evil, but she had never thought that such a little girl could think of such vile thoughts.
"I'm fine." She woke up from her stupor and wiped the tears off Xiao Yao's face.
Tang Yao couldn't stay any longer. He had always instructed Xiao Yao to take good care of Zhong Miao Yi, and he couldn't say a single word about what had happened tonight.
After he finished speaking, he held Zhong Miao Yi's hand. Grief and heartache intertwined within his eyes, but he still firmly smiled at her. "Miaoyi, you must be fine."
He would believe her, he would marry her.
However, Zhong Miao Yi was unable to cheer up. She was destined to become his stumbling block. Tang Yao was such a good person. It was as if the heavens had arranged for him to save her.
It was too late at night. There was no way for her to boil water, so she could only clean up the water for Zhong Miao Yi to dry.
He clearly didn't want to cry anymore, but he started to choke as he wiped off the tears from the corner of his eyes.
"Princess. "Let's rest early." Xiao Yao wiped her eyes clean and smiled at Zhong Miao Yi.
Her princess. It was too pitiful.
But Zhong Miao Yi didn't feel sleepy at all. Su Zeyi had been very abnormal lately, he suddenly started to care about her life and death, and Zhong Miao Yi couldn't tell if it was his guilt or something else.
In the long night, to others, it was but a sweet dream. To her, it was a nightmare after nightmare. She did not know when she would wake up.
The only lighthouse lit up for her in the darkness was Tang Yao.
