It happened in a flash!
It happened in an instant, so fast that people could only blink their eyes.
When they found that the dust had settled and the big stone in their hearts was lifted, they found that Cui Xiaoxin was lying in the arms of a strange man.
"No way?" Li Shinian's eyes widened in disbelief at the scene before her.
She pulled Li Muyang over, hoping that Li Muyang could be closer to Cui Xiaoxin. She knew her brother's feelings for Cui Xiaoxin, and she also knew what Cui Xiaoxin's departure meant to her brother.
The young man, who was originally self-abased, ignited the hidden passion and motivation in his heart after meeting a girl. He hoped that he could be more outstanding, and hoped that he could be closer to that girl, close enough to match her.
He didn't expect that the girl was too outstanding, and her background was too prominent. Even if he tried his best, he still couldn't reach her.
Some things can't come true if you work hard enough.
How difficult was it for a young man in plain clothes to marry a girl from a rich and powerful family?
Not to mention that he wanted to marry a girl from a Cui family.
She said that she wanted Li Muyang to protect her, but in fact, she didn't need protection at all. She hoped that Li Muyang could protect Cui Xiaoxin at a close distance.
Of course, that was just a precaution.
Unexpectedly, as if the two of them had already cooperated, Cui Xiaoxin stepped on nothing, and the others couldn't react in time. Then, they shamelessly hugged each other in public.
She never thought that something would happen to her good friend, because this kind of danger was beyond anyone's control.
However, when she saw that the one who hugged Cui Xiaoxin was her beloved brother. She could accept such a result.
"What's going on?"
Song Tao frowned slightly, looking at Li Muyang, who was hugging Cui Xiaoxin in panic. Did this kid do it on purpose or not?
However, this thought only lasted for a moment.
He's just a lowly driver. Even if he had the intention, what could he do?
Could it be that the Cui family would allow their 'Ming Yue' to marry a nobody?
If the Cui family found out about this, this kid would be in big trouble. For the Cui family, what was the difference between crushing a nobody like crushing an ant to death? With a single palm strike, he was able to evaporate everyone, and no one would be able to find any traces of him.
The guards gathered around, but they didn't dare to get too close.
Cui Xiaoxin's precious body was not something that servants like them could lay a finger on.
Taohong and Liulu finally reacted. Taohong ran over with tears in her eyes, knelt on the stone steps and shouted anxiously: "Miss, are you all right? Are you hurt? "
Liulu also ran to the front and knelt down, saying in a panic: "Miss, Liulu deserves to die, Liulu deserves to die, please punish me heavily — —"
If Cui Xiaoxin really fell down, and her face was scratched or her body was broken, or what was even worse was that she would roll straight down the hundred steps to heaven … These two personal servant girls would definitely be punished to death by the cane.
This was their fate.
Even if the Miss was rescued, if the steward reported to the family, the two of them would be severely punished. So they were anxious and afraid, hurriedly knelt in front of Cui Xiaoxin and begged for mercy.
Cui Xiaoxin's face was pale, staring at Li Muyang who had rescued her and held her in his arms.
This was a strange face, she was sure that she had never seen it before today.
It was also an ordinary face, so ordinary that if it fell into the crowd, it would disappear.
However, there was a sense of déjà vu.
The name was on the tip of her tongue, but it was stuck in her throat.
"Who is it? Is it someone I've seen before? Why is there a sense of familiarity? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before — — "
Li Muyang was also looking at Cui Xiaoxin.
Clear and bright eyes, cute nose, tender and delicate skin, rosy and tender little mouth — — it made people want to kiss her.
He breathed the hot air that Cui Xiaoxin breathed out, and he heard the fierce heartbeat of Cui Xiaoxin.
He held her like this, just like the scene in his countless dreams.
Song Tao came over, looked at Cui Xiaoxin and said: "Xiaoxin, are you okay?"
Cui Xiaoxin shifted her gaze from Li Muyang's face, looked at Song Tao and said: "I'm fine. Thank you third brother. "
Song Tao nodded and said: "It's good that you're fine."
Then, he looked at Li Muyang with a smile and asked: "What's your name?"
"Li Mu."
"Li Mu." Song Tao reached out and patted Li Muyang's shoulder. A strong force came. Li Muyang did not dare to resist and used his body to resist. His knees softened and he almost fell to the ground.
Of course, Song Tao was just testing. Seeing that Li Muyang's body had no strength to fight back, he grabbed his shoulder so that he would not kneel on the spot.
"Sharp eyes and quick hands and feet. You're much better than those trash. Young man, you're very good. "Song Tao said with a smile. "Thank you for saving Xiaoxin. You may not be aware of what you have just done. I will ask someone to reward you with 100 gold coins. People who can do things should be rewarded. "
The eyes of the guards around them were red. One must know that their annual salary was not so much?
They secretly regretted it. If they knew it would be like this, they would have followed the young lady of the Cui family. They took advantage and took the money. How could there be such a good thing in the world?
"No need …" Li Muyang said aloud.
"No need?" Song Tao raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Li Muyang with a playful look. "What do you mean no need? No need to thank me? Or no reward? "
"I mean … I just did what I should do. No need to reward me. "Li Muyang looked up at Song Tao and said aloud. 100 gold coins was not a small number for ordinary people. If he was really just a cart driver, it would be an astronomical number. However, for the current Li Muyang, it was dispensable.
"You deserve it. You don't have to decline. "Song Tao said forcefully. He looked at Li Muyang's hands that were holding Cui Xiaoxin and said, "But, are your hands okay?"
Li Muyang was taken aback and instantly understood the meaning of this sentence.
His hands were, of course, excellent. But if he did not know his place, he would chop them off. At that time, it would not be good.
Li Muyang's heart was in turmoil and his blood was surging.
In the end, he put Cui Xiaoxin down, picked up the fallen package and retreated to the side.
"Xiaoxin, are you okay?" Song Tao stepped forward to support Cui Xiaoxin, then glanced coldly at Taohong and Liulu, and said in a cold voice, "You two stupid maids, why don't you get up and support Miss?"
Taohong and Liulu hurriedly got up from the ground and supported Cui Xiaoxin on both sides. They no longer dared to have the slightest carelessness.
Cui Xiaoxin's feet landed on the ground, her body was still a little numb.
That was because she was frightened by the dangerous situation just now. If she really rolled down the stairs like this, even if she did not die, she would be crippled.
She waited until her mood had calmed down a little, and then walked over to Li Muyang, bowed deeply to Li Muyang and said, "Thank you Mr. Li Mu, if you hadn't reached out to help, Xiaoxin would have suffered. This kindness, Xiaoxin will remember it. If you need me in the future, tell Shinian to inform me, or you can go directly to the Cui residence to find me. I will certainly repay this kindness. "
Li Muyang expressionlessly looked at Cui Xiaoxin and said in a low voice, "Thank you Miss Xiaoxin. Just now Young master Song has rewarded me with 100 gold coins. For me, that's enough. "
"That's what he rewarded you. That's what I rewarded you. You can't judge it just like that. "Cui Xiaoxin said stubbornly. "Remember what I've said."
"Yes. I'll remember. "Li Muyang had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.
Li Shinian came over, clasped Cui Xiaoxin's hand, and asked, "Sister Xiaoxin, are you all right?"
Cui Xiaoxin pursed her lips and chuckled, "Thank you Shinian. Fortunately you let Mr. Li Mu follow behind to protect you. If it wasn't for that, I'm afraid I would have tumbled down. "
"That won't happen." Li Shinian said with a smile. "Even if he didn't do it, I would have done it. I originally wanted to save her, but he snatched it from me. "
Cui Xiaoxin knew Li Shinian's character, smiled and said, "Then I'll let you save her next time."
Li Shinian repeatedly shook his head. "No, no. It's too dangerous. There can't be a next time. From now on, I'll be behind you. I won't be far away. "
"Thank you Shinian." Cui Xiaoxin said with a smile.
Cui Xiaoxin and Li Shinian walked hand in hand in front, followed by Taohong and Liulu on both sides.
Song Tao, who was following behind, saw Li Muyang walking side by side with him, his brows furrowed inaudibly.
However, this was just a trivial matter, he did not want to drive him away, that would only make him lose his demeanour in front of the two girls.
"Where is Li Mu from?" Song Tao took the initiative to ask Li Muyang.
"Jiangnan." Li Muyang answered aloud.
"Oh? Miss Shinian's relative? "
"Yes." Li Muyang put on a wooden and talkative look.
"Be a good cart driver, this is a very promising career." Song Tao said with a smile. "Miss Shinian's father was like you, a cart driver. However, the pavilion closest to the water enjoyed moonlight first, and he married the maid of the Gongsun family's young miss … "
Li Muyang clenched his fists.
Li Shinian's father, Li Yan, was also his father, and his father indeed married his mother, who was also a servant of Lady Gongsun, because he was Lady Gongsun's cart driver.
He did not think there was anything wrong with this, and his father and mother were a model of loving husband and wife. However, when these words came out of Song Tao's mouth, he could clearly see contempt and ridicule.
"Shinian and Xiaoxin are on good terms, if you can always be Shinian's cart driver, you may have a chance to marry a servant of Xiaoxin — — Taohong and Liulu are both very good, what do you think, which one do you like better?"
