CONQUERING THE HEART OF THE ENCHANTING BEAUTY

6: Hero saved the beauty

It was a sunny day. Lu Cong Qing went to the mountains to collect herbs accompanied by Su Yue who was learning medicine as Lu Cong Qing's apprentice. Zhu Xiaolan hadn't return home since he left with Zhang Cheng. It seem like a wedding is coming soon.
As for Shen Zheqiang he went to the market to buy household items alongwith Xiao Zhi and his grandma.
Their lives had never been better.

"Watch Out." A young man roared out and warned the busy crowd on the streets.
A group of men were running behind and trying to stop a mad horse followed by a young handsome man who by the looks of it seem like their lord.

In that very moment on the street, Shen Zheqiang was piggy riding Xiao Zhi on his back and old madam Xiao was walking infront of them.
Suddenly they heard noises coming from behind, the crowds were in dispersed and chaos, running wild here and there.
It was a complete mess.
Before they could turned their backs to see what was going on it was already too late.
The mad horse was marching towards them , for an instant Shen Zheqiang's mind went blank.
He froze and panic was written all over his face. They began to run along with the crowds but Shen Zheqiang stumbled upon a rock and was pushed by another person making him lose his balanced and fell on the ground alongwith Xiao Zhi.
He told Xiao Zhi to run towards his grandma and before he could stand on his feet the horse was already close to him.
The horse lifted its legs in the air and was on course to stumble the young frightened ger.
He closed his eyes and waited for what will befall upon him but what he expected didn't happen.
In a sudden and quick movement before tha horse could stumble upon him he was flipped over the other side by a strong and sturdy young man.

In the nick of time the man saved the ger and soon the guards caught the mad horse.With much difficulties the the horse was tamed by the young lord and his guards and advice them to take the horse to leave and take the horse to the stable.
They followed the young lord order ,took the horse and left the chaotic street.

Minutes later the surrounding was calm again and the crowd went back to doing what they were doing before. A young man of around his early twenties stood before the two figures who were lying on the ground embracing each other tightly.
The position of the two figures were very intimate. It was broad daylight and the scene was seen by all the passerby.
If one didn't know the real reason they won't be able to hold their tongues and throw curses at the man and the ger.
Cursing at how shameless they were in public but because of the incident with the horse they knew it wasn't like what it look like and praised the man who saved the ger from danger instead.
One by one praising Yu Han for his quick thinking and bravery.

Shen Zheqiang slowly open his eyes and gasp for breath as he was being held tightly by the big man on top of him.
A pair of black eyes were staring intensively at him without blinking.
For a moment he was confused but as soon as he realised their awkward position he immediately tried to push the chest of the man who was embracing him firmly.

Yu Han who was taking advantage and enjoying their short but intimate moment couldn't help but frowned.

'I don't want to. If I could I want to embrace him forever.'

But reluctantly he let go of the ger but he felt empty. The warm emitting out from the beauty was gone.
Xiao Zhi and his grandma walked over to Shen Zheqiang and asked him if he was alright.

"Grandma and Xiao Zhi I'm alright. Go home and take rest. Don't worry about me I'll be going home too."

At first the pair of grandmother and grandson were reluctant to leave but seeing that Shen Zheqiang was fine they thank Yu Han for saving Shen Zheqiang and left.
The other person who was standing close to them seem like he was already bewitched by the beauty standing before him. All this time his eyes were fixed on Shen Zheqiang whole person. Never had he seen such a beautiful person in his whole life.
The beauty didn't wear any valuable clothing or accessories but a plain sky blue robe with a jade pendant hanging around his waist.
He stood infront of him like an angel send from the heaven.
He can't help but wonder who this enchanting beauty might be?

"Young Masters, Are you both alright? The horse was my brother's. After my brother's death, the horse went wild and crazy so we had locked it up all this time. But unfortunately today when we took the horse out it went rouge and cause such a big trouble and almost put you in danger. Please accept my apology."

The young nobleman was speaking in a very light and gentle tone.
He had a handsome face with a sword like brows and his skin was fair and delicate. One look and you can tell taht the young belonged from a wealthy family.

"We're both alright but locked that horse. Don't let this happen next time." Yu Han's words were rude and harsh emitting out strong dislike from the tone itself.

The young handsome man nodded his head with a smile and spoke,
"I'm Xu Wei and young master you are?"

Although he asked Yu Han's identity but his lingering gaze never left Shen Zheqiang who stood still motionlessly perhaps from the shocked he received a while ago.
Yu Han was glaring at Xu Wei with killing intent from the very beginning.
He obviously know that Xu Wei was taking great interest on the beauty before them.
"We just met by chance there's no need to know our identities."

Hearing those rude words Xu Wei frowned. If not for the beauty standing infront of them he would had pulled his sword and killed this man before him.
But he can't. He had to leave a good impression in the young her's heart.
When he was about to open his mouth , Yu Han grab hold of Shen Zheqiang's left wrist and left.
Just when Xu Wei was about to follow them , a guard came over and reported,
"Third Young Master, Lord Xu had called for you."

Gloominess pour all over Xu Wei' s heart as he knitted his brows into a frown.
He couldn't follow the beauty who was taken away by that rude man and he had no Idea when he'll get to see the glimpse of that enchanting beauty.

"Yin Ming"

"Yes young master"

"I want you to investigate the identities of the man and the ger who left just now."

He order his guard and eventually left.
