Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 33 The Emperor's Dragon-Patterned Jade Pendant

The girl had an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, round almond eyes, and a cherry-like mouth. At this moment, her eyebrows were raised in anger, and she spread her arms to block the old man. She looked proud and unyielding, truly giving people the feeling that a woman is not inferior to a man.

Unfortunately, after learning about the girl's subsequent actions through the information, Yu Liu couldn't develop any good feelings towards her. At this moment, the person most worried was Du Huai'an. What if he fell for her again?

Upon seeing this scene, Du Huai'an raised an eyebrow with interest. He felt a slight fondness for the girl who had stopped the horse. Of course, it wasn't romantic affection, but rather a kind of admiration. Such a bold girl was rare. However, no matter how good she was, she couldn't compare to his own baby.

Seeing the addition of a girl in yellow, the rider did not slow down. Everyone couldn't bear to look away, knowing that if the horse's hoof landed, the two would either die or be seriously injured. Some people had already imagined the tragic fate of the two and couldn't help but shed tears.

Such audacity within his own capital city was something Du Huai'an couldn't ignore. He waved his hand behind him, and the imperial guards following behind understood. They leaped into the air and appeared in front of the girl in the next instant. With lightning speed, they seized the horse's hoof that was about to hit her. Using their strength, they managed to shake the entire horse. Caught off guard, the horse was thrown to the side and fell to the ground. The rider didn't have time to react either and crashed heavily to the ground with the horse. Fortunately, the rider reacted quickly and avoided serious injury, only suffering minor abrasions.

Having completed his mission, the guard returned to Du Huai'an's side without saying a word.

The girl had been waiting to die with her eyes closed. Although she knew she was destined to survive and that a prince on a white horse would always save her, anyone would be afraid to truly face the threat of death. Hearing the loud thud as the horse landed, a surge of pride welled up inside her. See, her guess was right! She was indeed destined to be a hero, and sure enough, a hero would silently come to her rescue in times of crisis!

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw the man on horseback had already stood up, covered in dust, staring at her back with a sinister look.

Following the gaze of the man on horseback, one could see a handsome young man with a polite smile on his face, looking at him with admiration. Behind him were four guards who were clearly skilled in martial arts. It was obvious at a glance that this was no ordinary person.

"Do you know who I am? How dare you hurt my horse!!" The man on horseback looked at Du Huai'an carefully for a few moments, and after confirming that he did not know Du Huai'an, he realized that the other party must be a young master from a poor family from another place. With no more scruples, he stared at Du Huai'an with a sinister look on his face and threatened him.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyan was the first to object.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? You're the one who did something wrong. There are so many people here, riding horses isn't allowed at all. You almost hurt someone. What, are you planning to use your power to bully people?"

She raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes blazing with obvious fire, and her originally delicate appearance became fiery.

The man riding the horse then noticed the young girl blocking his path. Upon seeing her striking beauty, his heart fluttered. "Hey, what do you think of me? Why don't you come and find out for yourself, young lady?"

A lewd smile immediately appeared on his face, and he made a teasing remark.

Chen Qingyan was so angry that she fell backward and slapped him across the face.

"rogue!"

The man was a notorious playboy in the capital. He had never been treated like this before, and his arrogance immediately flared up. "Little lady, don't push your luck. I am the heir of the prestigious Song Prince's Mansion. I can easily deal with a little slut like you."

He continued to hurl insults, which fueled Chen Qingyan's anger. However, she had to maintain her composure in front of her benefactor who had saved her life. Although she was furious, she stubbornly stared at the纨绔 (wan ku, a spoiled brat) in front of her, which only made the纨绔 seem more unreasonable and made her seem even more noble.

Du Huai'an never expected that the promising son that Uncle Song had mentioned would turn out to be like this. He couldn't help but frown and ordered the guards behind him, "Go and send that man away."

The guard immediately stepped forward. Although the Prince Song's family was related to the imperial family, they had long lost their real power. They could only act arrogantly in the capital because of the prestige of their ancestors. Although the guard was just a bodyguard in front of the emperor, his family's power might be greater than that of the Prince Song's family. Therefore, Du Huai'an was not worried.

As a member of the family, he knew exactly what was going on in the Song Prince's mansion. He had been sizing up Du Huai'an to see if he could afford to offend him, but he hadn't expected to misjudge him. Since he was someone who couldn't be messed with, the playboy could only utter a harsh remark and turn to leave.

Upon seeing that the heir of the Song Prince's Mansion was casually dismissed by one of the man's guards, Chen Qingyan's eyes lit up even more. She understood that the person who saved her must be incredibly powerful. She just wondered who was more powerful, him or Brother Mu. If only she could bring both of them into her harem!

Lost in thought, she followed the guard to Du Huai'an, bowed to him, and said, "I am Chen Qingyan, and I thank you for saving my life."

Her gaze suddenly seemed to be filled with admiration, and two blushes rose on her cheeks. Du Huai'an's previous admiration vanished in an instant. He had thought that someone with such courage must be a heroic and spirited woman, but it turned out that her demeanor was exactly like that of those young ladies from wealthy families.

Disappointed, Du Huai'an's expression became more distant. "No need. I just admire your courage."

Yu Liu hid behind Du Huai'an's neck. Although others couldn't see her, she also couldn't see the expression on Du Huai'an's face. When she heard Du Huai'an say that he admired Chen Qingyan, she immediately scratched her head in anxiety.

This woman is poison; she's not someone to be admired!

She couldn't resist reaching out her paw and scratching Du Huai'an's nape.

Although the back of Du Huai'an's neck wasn't a sensitive spot, he couldn't resist Yu Liu's gentle "caress." His whole body trembled from the stimulation, and he lost all interest in speaking to Chen Qingyan. "Miss Chen, I have important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

"Eh? My benefactor, I don't even know your name yet. I don't know which family you are from. I, Chen Qingyan, will certainly offer you a small gift to express my gratitude for saving my life." Seeing that her beloved was about to leave, how could Chen Qingyan possibly agree? She knew that what she said might be a bit abrupt, but since the other party appreciated her, he probably wouldn't mind. After all, she was so charming.
