“Silver is minor, safety is major.”
“Heh, are you still worried someone might try to harm me?”
“Theoretically it’s impossible, but what if? You should still be more careful. After all, you have been kidnapped by human traffickers before.”
Hearing Daohua bring up the past again, Xiao Yeyang was speechless, “You still can’t let that go, can you? I’m not saying I’m some sort of top-notch expert now, but I do have the ability to protect myself.”
As he spoke, he paused, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.”
Looking at Xiao Yeyang’s smiling face, Daohua always felt like he was pretending to be at ease, but since he didn’t elaborate, it was not her place to ask further.
This guy, in reality, cared a lot about saving face.
Thereafter, the two quietly discussed other matters under the bright moonlight, creating an especially tranquil and cozy atmosphere.
Daohua had only taken a few sips from the jar of wine before Xiao Yeyang finished off the rest. Holding the empty wine jar, Daohua glared at Xiao Yeyang,
Xiao Yeyang touched his nose, “I did it for your own good, to keep you from getting drunk.”
Daohua gritted her teeth, “Thank you ever so much.”
Xiao Yeyang replied with a smile, “You’re welcome.”
Seeing her fourth brother, who was already drunk, Daohua shook her head helplessly, “We should go down now.”
Xiao Yeyang nodded, glanced at Defu, who immediately jumped down from the roof holding Yan Wenkai with agile and graceful movements, which impressed Daohua greatly.
“Shall I carry you down too?” Xiao Yeyang asked Daohua.
Daohua shook her head, “If I could climb up, I can climb down.” With that, she wobbled towards the parasol tree.
Xiao Yeyang watched her climb onto a branch before he jumped down from the roof.
While descending the tree, perhaps due to the alcohol, Daohua wasn’t fully focused and accidentally stepped on her skirt hem. She wobbled, then fell from the tree.
Xiao Yeyang, seeing this, was startled and hurried over, catching Daohua in his arms. Due to the force of the fall, he spun several times while holding Daohua before finally stabilizing.
The sudden loss of balance had also frightened Daohua. In the moment of the fall, she closed her eyes, anticipating the pain that never came. Slowly, she opened her eyes, only to see Xiao Yeyang looking back at her with an exasperated expression.
“I said I would carry you down, but you insisted on going by yourself. Now look what happened, scared, aren’t you?”
Seeing herself clenching tightly onto Xiao Yeyang’s front garment and held in his embrace, Daohua hastily released her grip, then said somewhat uncomfortably, “You can put me down now.”
Xiao Yeyang carefully set Daohua on the ground, then checked her complexion. Seeing she was only slightly startled, he finally felt relieved, “Don’t climb trees again in the future.”
Daohua covered her pounding chest and didn’t speak.
