Chapter 508: Chapter 471, Irresistible_1

Seeing Daohua sleeping soundly with relaxed brows, Xiao Yeyang let go of his worries. After covering her with a cloak, he also closed his eyes to rest and soon fell asleep too.

Time passed, and as they travelled through a bumpy section of the road, the carriage jostled both awake.

The moment Xiao Yeyang opened his eyes, he checked on Daohua’s injured arm and, seeing it wasn’t touched, he sighed in relief. Then, his gaze shifted and landed on Daohua, who was looking at him with sleepy eyes.

Having just woken up, her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were hazy, a dazed and adorable appearance that softened Xiao Yeyang’s heart. He chuckled, “Awake?”

Daohua nodded subconsciously, then realized she was lying on Xiao Yeyang’s legs and was tightly gripping his hand. She immediately let go in embarrassment and tried to sit up, but as she moved, the cloak on top of her slid off.

Xiao Yeyang did not bother with the cloak but quickly stabilized her, “Be careful, don’t fall. If you tear your wound open again, what will you do?” Seeing a few strands of hair falling across her forehead, he reached out and gently brushed them away with a smile.

...

Feeling Xiao Yeyang’s hand lightly sweep across her face, Daohua’s body tensed, and she stared wide-eyed without daring to move.

Xiao Yeyang silently gazed down at the obedient and quiet Daohua. Her eyes still held traces of sleepiness, and her clean, clear pupils were like a sky washed clear by the rain, sending ripples through his heart.

Unconsciously, Xiao Yeyang’s gaze began to drift downward, landing on Daohua’s deeply red, full lips, and a strong desire surged within him.

Daohua’s eyes widened and she saw Xiao Yeyang’s Adam’s apple bob a few times before she noticed his head slowly lowering.

As Xiao Yeyang’s face drew nearer, Daohua’s heart pounded like thunder. When his nose touched hers, her hands shot out and pushed him away.

“Ouch!”

Startled by the push, Xiao Yeyang leaned back against the carriage wall, while Daohua took the chance to sit up. However, she had pulled at her wound too forcefully, causing her face to crumple in pain.

“Are you okay?”

Xiao Yeyang quickly took Daohua’s arm, rolled up her sleeve, and saw fresh blood seeping through the white bandage. Without saying more, he swiftly took out the medical supplies from inside the carriage and began to rebandage her wound.

Daohua bit her lip and let Xiao Yeyang tend to her, but her eyes were looking elsewhere, not on him. Her heart was still racing, and thinking back to that moment, her ears felt hot.

Damn Xiao Yeyang, does he even realize what he was doing?

After reapplying medicine to the wound and wrapping it up again, Xiao Yeyang put the sleeve back and wanted to say something to Daohua. However, seeing her quickly move to the side of the carriage, her cheeks and ears crimson, the words he had died in his mouth, and he felt embarrassed.

How reckless of him!

He didn’t even know why he got carried away in the moment.

Thinking of his inappropriate behavior, Xiao Yeyang felt somewhat guilty and cautiously glanced at Daohua, wondering if she was angry.

Seeing Daohua sitting with her back turned to him, anxiety and worry bubbled up inside Xiao Yeyang. Was she really angry?

He hadn’t really crossed the line, had he?

Recalling how close he had come to crossing it, Xiao Yeyang felt a mix of disappointment and regret.

But as soon as the thought arose, he suppressed it and inwardly scolded himself.

Seeing that Daohua was not speaking or paying him any attention, Xiao Yeyang nervously wrung his hands, eager to explain himself but at a loss for words, sitting helplessly.

The atmosphere in the carriage turned awkward.

Xiao Yeyang wiped the sweat from his forehead and, noticing the teapot inside the carriage, felt parched. He poured himself a cup and gulped down three cups before feeling somewhat relieved. After he finished, he looked at Daohua again, “Would you like a cup of tea?”

Daohua glanced at him but said nothing.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Yeyang filled the cup again and handed it to Daohua, “You must be thirsty after sleeping for a while, have some tea!”

Daohua was indeed thirsty and started drinking from the cup.

Daohua felt somewhat downhearted: “In the future, I’d better stay away from any events involving the Jiang Family and the Chen Family.”

But then again, if she hadn’t been kidnapped, she would have never gone to Sishan Village and uncovered the secret there.

It really is a blessing in disguise!

At this point, Xiao Yeyang ran out of things to say, but thankfully, Defu came to his rescue in time.

“Bang, bang!”

Defu knocked on the carriage door and called out loudly, “Master, we’re almost at the inn where Miss Dong and the others are staying.”

Xiao Yeyang said, “Enter through the back door; don’t alert Yuanyao and the others just yet. Just go quietly and fetch Daohua’s two maidservants.”

Seeing Daohua looking over, Xiao Yeyang explained, “Yuanyao came with us. After we found Miss Dong and the others, I asked him to stay and look after them. Your two maidservants also followed; since we didn’t know where you were, they were left at the inn.”

Daohua uttered an ‘oh.’

Before long, they arrived at the inn.

Daohua was led by Xiao Yeyang directly to a guestroom on the second floor of the back courtyard.

“Miss!”

When Daohua entered the room, Wang Manman and Bi Shi were already waiting there.

Xiao Yeyang said to the two, “Go prepare hot water quickly for your miss to wash up. Also, check her body thoroughly for any injuries.”

Seeing Wang Manman and Bi Shi’s expressions change, Daohua glared at Xiao Yeyang, “I’ve said there are none.”

Xiao Yeyang, with a look of distrust, said, “You should still have them check. Alright, hurry up and wash and change. I’m going downstairs; if there’s anything, send someone to inform me.”
