#1077 - Chapter 1077: Flower Guardian
Of course, in this era, the trust between people is very high. Therefore, the followers were not worried that there would be anything strange or dangerous here.
"Sure, no problem!" Lie Yan patted his chest and promised.
He was worried about how to get close to this celestial beauty, but the beauty took the initiative to give him a chance.
What's there to hesitate about?
He had to agree.
"Then thank you, Young Master. However, my foot is injured, and I'm afraid I can't walk," Yao Tao said worriedly, looking at her injured leg.
"How about... I carry you?" Lie Yan suggested.
But after saying it, he felt that he was being presumptuous.
Wouldn't it be too rude to just carry her?
"Really? Wouldn't that be too tiring?" Yao Tao asked with concern.
"Tired? How could I be tired? I'm just afraid you're not willing, how could I be afraid of being tired?" Lie Yan was overjoyed.
It was already obvious that the beauty was also interested in him.
So he quickly replied:
"It doesn't matter, even if I carry you for a day and a night, I won't feel tired," Lie Yan replied.
"Then thank you, Young Master. When I get home, I will definitely thank you properly," Yao Tao glanced at him and lowered her head shyly.
"You're welcome, this is what I should do. Please come up, I'll carry you home," Lie Yan bent down slightly, signaling the beauty to lean on his back.
"Young Master, why don't you let me carry her?" At this time, a follower walked over and volunteered.
Lie Yan's face turned dark. He didn't speak, but gave him a cold look.
"Young Master, don't worry, I have plenty of strength and I definitely won't mess things up," the follower didn't understand the meaning of his cold gaze.
"You go back to the city now and tell my father that I'll be home later," Lie Yan said fiercely when he saw that he didn't understand.
"...Yes!" The follower didn't dare to disobey and left as ordered.
"Young Master, I don't want them to carry me," Yao Tao said aggrievedly, leaning on his back.
"Don't worry, they are not worthy to carry you," Lie Yan comforted her.
Afterwards, Lie Yan carried Yao Tao and walked in the direction of her home according to her instructions.
Of course, the place Yao Tao took him to was not her original home, but the place where Cheng Bang lived.
He built a stone house in a relatively remote place in Yan Di. After Yao Tao was controlled, she lived with him in this place.
Lie Yan walked for three consecutive hours before arriving here. By this time, he was exhausted, and his legs were completely weak.
"Dad, I'm back," Yao Tao shouted loudly after arriving at the entrance of the stone house.
"A'Tao, what's wrong?" Cheng Bang walked out of the house.
"Dad, I accidentally sprained my foot in the forest. This young master is kind-hearted, not only saved me, but also sent me back," Yao Tao explained.
"Come down quickly, come down quickly! Look how tired the young master is," Cheng Bang hurriedly stepped forward to help.
"It's okay! It's okay!" Lie Yan replied with a pale face, panting heavily.
The followers behind him didn't dare to say much, and they didn't dare to step forward to help, they could only watch.
With Cheng Bang's support, Yao Tao came down from his back.
"Phew ~"
Lie Yan wiped his sweat and took a deep breath.
"Young Master, you must be tired, please come inside!" Cheng Bang supported Yao Tao and invited Lie Yan into the house.
"You guys wait outside!" Lie Yan turned his head and ordered the followers.
"Yes!" The followers obeyed.
In this era, the houses where ordinary people live are very narrow. If everyone enters the house, it will appear particularly crowded.
Because the windows are small and have poor light transmission, the house is very dark.
There is no furniture inside, only a layer of hay is laid on the ground.
"Young Master, please sit down!" Cheng Bang pointed to the haystack.
"Okay!" Lie Yan nodded and knelt down on the hay.
Cheng Bang and Yao Tao also knelt down.
"Is the Young Master from Yan Di?" Cheng Bang asked.
"Yes." Lie Yan didn't say that he was the son of Marquis Lie Huo.
However, Cheng Bang was deliberately teasing him, and of course he knew his identity.
"Judging from the Young Master's attire, he shouldn't be an ordinary person," Cheng Bang asked.
"Where, I'm just an ordinary young man from Yan Di," Lie Yan waved his hand modestly.
He actually wanted to say that he was the son of Marquis Lie Huo. But he always felt that if he admitted it directly, it would make the other party think that he was too proud.
"I don't think so, right? How could ordinary people have so many followers? If I guessed correctly, the Young Master should be the son of Marquis Lie Huo, right?" Cheng Bang directly revealed.
"Wow! Dad? Really?" Yao Tao showed an extremely surprised expression beside him.
"Uncle is really a divine person!" Lie Yan gave a thumbs up.
"Haha. There are very few things in this world that can be hidden from my old eyes," Cheng Bang laughed heartily.
"Young Master, I'm sorry, I was really too presumptuous!" Yao Tao hurriedly bowed to apologize.
