No matter what, her heart was beating violently, and she felt a sense of surprise and excitement that she had survived a desperate situation.
After a long time, Gu Qingyuan asked softly, "Pei Jinting... are you serious?"
Her voice was gentle and gentle, and her tone was cautious.
There was hesitation and caution in the eyes he looked at the man.
Pei Jinting raised his eyebrows, twitched the corners of his lips, looked playfully, and smiled frivolously and ruthlessly.
"What do you think? Is it possible that this young master is... a ghost?"
Pei Jinting grabbed Gu Qingyuan's waist and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly with his wrist like a soldering iron.
Gu Qingyuan let out a low cry, trying to pull his hand away, then reached out and grabbed the man's strong arm.
The man's body temperature is scalding hot, with an indescribable sense of security...
The horse neighed, rocked and bumped, and Gu Qingyuan's hand tightly grasped the man's arm.
The wind was ringing in her ears, Gu Qingyuan shook her long hair flying away from her face, her voice was muffled,
"How did you come?"
At this moment, she truly felt that she was really saved.
The person who came to save him was someone he usually hated.
The man's hand around her waist pinched her gently, as if absentmindedly,
"I didn't find the person I was looking for. I only saw you and reluctantly saved me..."
Gu Qingyuan was stunned at first, then smiled to herself, and finally breathed out softly.
No matter what the reason, he always saved her life.
"Thank you." Sincerely.
Gu Qingyuan was actually a little worried that because of Pei Jinting's reputation as a playboy in the capital, the two of them would not be able to return to the city smoothly.
Along the way, the horses could gallop at first, but later they could only walk on their feet.
Fortunately, we arrived at the official road safely.
Gu Qingyuan followed Pei Jinting without saying a word.
"What happened to your foot?"
When they reached the official road, they could gallop on horseback. Pei Jinting lifted Gu Qingyuan onto the horse's back, his eyes resting on her feet.
The embroidered shoes hung in tatters on her feet, the soles of her feet were scratched, and her ankles were swollen like steamed buns.
Pei Jinting chuckled.
Okay, Gu Yuanyuan.
He twisted his feet but didn't say a word, and still followed him for such a long distance.
Pei Jinting pinched her foot, gently turned her bones, and pressed lightly with his thumb.
The man's fingertips are rough, mixed with body temperature and pressed against the delicate skin.
The pain in my ankle seemed to have completely disappeared, replaced by a numb and numb feeling, like the itch of ants chewing.
Gu Qingyuan shrank her feet uncomfortably.
Pei Jinting raised his eyelids, "Does it hurt?"
Gu Qingyuan pursed her lips and shook her head gently.
"The bones are not injured, just go back and apply some medicine to remove blood stasis and reduce swelling..."
As he spoke, he lifted up the hem of his clothes, tore off two pieces of cloth from his middle coat, and wrapped Gu Qingyuan's two injured feet.
During the whole process, he said nothing, his eyebrows were lowered, and his movements were natural and pious.
Gu Qingyuan's mouth and tongue were inexplicably dry, and she stared at the man's black hair and his broad shoulders like a trance.
Her heartbeat suddenly beat very fast, and she seemed to hear her own heartbeat.
Boom.
Dong Dong.
The last ray of light in the sky was about to be swallowed up. Pei Jinting got on his horse and hugged Gu Qingyuan's slender waist.
"Thank you for saving me. When I go back, I will prepare a big gift and send it to my house..."
The man's hand was placed on his waist, feeling warm and soft.
Gu Qingyuan's heart seemed to be touched silently.
After coughing a little unnaturally, she spoke slowly, her voice dispersed in the wind.
Pei Jinting's hand holding the reins paused, and his dark eyes showed no emotion, but also showed some inexplicable displeasure.
"Okay."
He touched his lower back teeth with the tip of his tongue and whispered in her ear with a half-smile,
"What are you going to use to repay the favor of saving your life? Oh... I know..."
His breath hit her ear, and Gu Qingyuan's mind subconsciously jumped out: the grace of saving life, with one's own body...
She pursed her lips, they had already made a covenant.
The sound of horse hooves in the distance interrupted what she was about to say, and soon, the pair of men and horses approached.
"A Yuan?" The familiar voice filled with confusion turned out to be Lu Wenze.
Under the light of the torch, Lu Wenze's face was clearly printed in front of Gu Qingyuan's eyes.
"Finally I found you, A-Yuan."
Lu Wenze jumped off his horse excitedly and ran to Pei Jinting and Gu Qingyuan's horses.
Gu Qingyuan's eyelids moved and she looked down at the hands holding her around her waist.
