Chapter 734: Chapter 734: Extra Story: This Life (2)
“Ah!” Xiao Tao closed her eyes, thinking that now it was over, she had gotten carried away in An’an’s admiring gaze.
Well, this is just great, she’ll probably be bedridden for three months!
In the midst of An’an and Qiuyue’s screams, Suisui swiftly kicked over a cushion.
Xiao Tao suddenly felt herself landing, but it wasn’t the cushion that caught her; she opened her eyes to see Yang Wu’s worried face.
Yang Wu was holding Xiao Tao, his ears bright red.
Xiao Tao jumped out of Yang Wu’s arms, her heart racing.
“Commander Yang.” Xiao Tao dared not look Yang Wu in the eye.
“Are you okay?” Yang Wu asked worriedly.
Xiao Tao shyly replied, “I’m fine.”
The two exchanged glances, Yang Wu awkwardly shifted his gaze to An’an and Suisui, and asked, “Are the little Prince and little Princess alright?”
“Hmm.” Suisui, as always, was aloof.
An’an ran to Xiao Tao’s side, saying in a childlike voice, “Commander Yang can teach Xiao Tao how to climb trees, or else she’ll get hurt.”
After speaking, An’an pulled Xiao Tao and Yang Wu’s hands together, both hearts started racing instantly.
Qiuyue sighed in relief seeing Xiao Tao was unhard, instantly noticing the two blushing when their hands were together.
Qiuyue thought quietly: Could it be that Xiao Tao and Commander Yang are mutually interested?
Xiao Tao quickly withdrew her hand, stamring, “I-I’m usually very good at climbing trees!”
Yang Wu watched her awkward appearance with a slight smile, Xiao Tao is the cutest girl he has ever seen.
An’an pouted, “But An’an didn’t see Xiao Tao looking amazing!”
Feeling hurt, Xiao Tao retorted, “Then I’ll climb again, I assure you I can retrieve the kite!”
Just as Xiao Tao was about to climb the tree again, Yang Wu held her hand, “This is sothing a man should do.”
As Yang Wu brushed past, a smile appeared on Xiao Tao’s lips, perhaps this is the hero rescuing the beauty as described in the storybooks.
Hehe.
Xiao Tao felt a bit sweet inside.
Yang Wu leaped up, using Qinggong to retrieve the kite, An’an clapped and praised, “Amazing! Commander Yang, please teach Xiao Tao, like…um, how to fly up like that!”
Xiao Tao’s lips twitched, An’an the little princess is really pushing an unreasonable demand, “An’an the little princess, if Xiao Tao learns Qinggong, even pigs could climb trees!”
Xiao Tao saw a smile on Yang Wu’s lips, she frantically waved, “Ah, no, no, no, I an I can’t learn it.”
Qiuyue held back her laughter, Xiao Tao must like Commander Yang, she’s speaking incoherently.
“Hahaha, pigs would climb trees!” An’an laughed heartily.
Suisui crossed his arms, looking at the trunk like a little adult.
Pigs climbing trees is a bit difficult!
Yang Wu crouched down to look at An’an, “Since the little princess requested, I accept!”
An’an blinked her big eyes, “Good, good, good, when Xiao Tao learns, she can perform a pig climbing a tree for us!”
Xiao Tao: “…”
“Ah, An’an misspoke, it’s Qinggong, Qinggong!” An’an covered her mouth and laughed.
Even Suisui rarely showed a smile.
Yang Wu happily looked at a flustered Xiao Tao.
Since the little princess created this opportunity for him, he finally had the chance to express his feelings to Xiao Tao.
Three days later, Yang Wu taught Xiao Tao Qinggong, after countless failures, Xiao Tao said dejectedly, “Commander Yang, Xiao Tao is too dumb, can’t learn it.”
Yang Wu saw no one around, smiled and said, “That’s because I haven’t taught well, not your fault.”
Xiao Tao felt a bit sad, “Why, do you think I’m stupid?”
She suddenly t Yang Wu’s gentle gaze, hearing him say, “It’s not you being dumb, I have selfish intentions, I want to spend more ti with you.”
Xiao Tao heard Yang Wu’s sudden confession, her cheeks flushed, she lowered her gaze to her fingers.
Yang Wu said nervously, “Xiao Tao, I like you, do you like ?”
Xiao Tao’s fingers intertwined, not daring to look at Yang Wu.
She stuttered a reply, “I-I-I don’t know.”
Yang Wu smiled, “Once you’ve decided, fly a kite for , I’ll petition for us to marry.”
“Marry?” Their eyes t, Xiao Tao widened her eyes.
Yang Wu nodded, “Yes, I want to marry you.”
“Then let think about it.”
Xiao Tao left Yang Wu’s side with joyous steps.
Before, she had said to Miss that she would follow her for a lifeti.
Heart-free Xiao Tao woke up the next day and put this dilemma behind her.
But An’an grabbed her hand and said she wanted to fly a kite.
She suddenly rembered Yang Wu said flying a kite signified agreeing to his proposal.
Xiao Tao awkwardly waved her hand, “Little princess, let Qiuyue fly the kite, Xiao Tao isn’t feeling well.”
An’an pouted her little mouth, “But Xiao Tao flies kites the best.”
Xiao Tao got caught up in An’an flattery and picked up the kite, soon forgetting Yang Wu’s proposal.
Result is, as the kite took flight, she saw Yang Wu standing not far away, smiling broadly.
Xiao Tao was about to explain, but saw Yang Wu walking straight towards Zhan Lan sitting in the pavilion.
Yang Wu gave a grand salute, knelt and said, “Empress, may I marry Xiao Tao, please grant permission.”
Zhan Lan pretending to be puzzled, asked, “Commander Yang and Xiao Tao are together?”
Xiao Tao knelt down with a thud, “Your Majesty, Xiao Tao said she won’t marry.”
Zhan Lan raised an eyebrow, “Oh, won’t marry, planning to beco an old nanny in the palace?”
Xiao Tao showed a terrified expression, the palace’s old nannies are scary, she didn’t want to be one, imdiately replied, “No way, I-I-I… I’ll marry.”
Yang Wu breathed a sigh of relief, Xiao Tao is quite childlike, he was really afraid she’d agree and then back out.
Zhan Lan gently tapped the table, “Alright then, three days later you’ll marry, I will arrange it.”
Xiao Tao’s mouth dropped open, what? Three days, so fast!
Yang Wu was a bit troubled too, “Your Majesty, although I’ve prepared the betrothal gifts, the wedding room isn’t ready yet…”
Zhan Lan smiled softly, “Xiao Tao grew up with , for her marriage, I’ve long prepared the dowry and wedding room, you just get ready for the wedding.”
Xiao Tao’s eyes welled up with tears, her Miss had already prepared everything for her.
Qiuyue felt ward hearing this, she understood Miss arranged this way, worrying Xiao Tao would be looked down upon marrying into the Yang Family, this was support from her maternal family.
Yang Wu loved Xiao Tao, as long as Xiao Tao is happy, he’d be willing to be an in-law.
Once Xiao Tao and Yang Wu left, An’an hopped to Zhan Lan’s side, tilted her head and asked, “Mother, did An’an complete the mission?”
Zhan Lan kissed An’an’s soft cheeks, praising, “Yes, An’an is the best!”
If it wasn’t for An’an helping Yang Wu and Xiao Tao, who knows when they would realize their feelings.
An’an bead and extended her little hand towards Zhan Lan, “Mother, where’s An’an’s orange candy?”
An’an doesn’t like eating als, Zhan Lan rarely lets her eat candy, Mu Yan never allows An’an to have candy.
Zhan Lan secretly gave An’an orange candy as promised.
An’an was extrely happy, the sweet and sour taste in her mouth spread, her eyes sparkled, “Mother, don’t tell father you gave orange candy, otherwise father won’t let eat Pine Nut Sugar.”
Zhan Lan: “…”
Qiuyue ca over from a distance, smiling and said, “Your Majesty, several young gentlen and ladies ca looking for the little princess and little Prince to play.”
