Shen Xihe looked at him quietly for a while before he said frankly, "Yes."
Anyone who is treated with care by another person, even a stranger, will be touched as long as they are not an enemy.
This one word made Xiao Huayong's eyebrows and eyes flicker with a satisfied smile.
The night was gentle, the lights were swaying, their eyes met, his was full of tenderness, and her expression was friendly.
"The light is down, a light is down!" At this moment, a sharp cry was heard outside.
Shen Xihe and Xiao Huayong looked over quickly and saw a row of high-hanging lanterns collapsed. The dense crowd bumped into each other as they dodged, and some people were pushed down. Screams and screams rose to the sky, and the fire ignited by the fallen lanterns illuminated the panicked faces.
Shen Xihe keenly noticed that someone was creating chaos. She pointed at the person who deliberately pushed someone down, causing casualties, and then grabbed the light shelf and pushed it down: "Your Highness, that person!"
Xiao Huayong looked in the direction of her fingertips and saw someone quickly escaping from the chaotic circle: "Yo Yo, don't leave this place."
"Your Highness, you have to be careful." Shen Xihe grabbed Xiao Huayong's sleeve as he turned to leave, and warned him with concern.
Xiao Huayong smiled at her joyfully, happiness in his eyes, nodded and left quickly.
What Shen Xihe was worried about was not Xiao Huayong's ability, but that someone was setting up a trap for Xiao Huayong. He came to the East Tower in such a high-profile manner, and I'm afraid many people knew about it. It just so happened that the accident happened near the East Tower, so she couldn't help but think about it.
She nodded to Mo Yuan and asked Mo Yuan to take people to follow.
There was some chaos outside, and Shen Xihe did not leave immediately. She looked down at the crowded streets and alleys. The streets next to her also became a little chaotic because of the fire caused by the collapsed lamp.
The sharp-eyed Shen Xihe saw Bu Shulin from afar, and also saw that when everyone was retreating, some people pushed through the retreating people and went towards Bu Shulin with a clear goal. They had their hands hanging down, and Shen Xihe could not see from a distance whether they were holding weapons, but their postures looked very similar.
"Mo Yu, Prince Bu!" Shen Xihe pointed at where Bu Shulin was.
Mo Yu immediately went towards Bu Shulin. The Jinwu Guards who were there to maintain order were already on their way. Mo Yu could not climb walls or fly over rooftops, otherwise he would be considered a gangster and could be shot to death by arrows from high buildings. Mo Yu could only go downstairs and squeeze through the crowd to go towards Bu Shulin.
Bu Shulin was in a bad mood today. During the Lantern Festival when Liying was lingering, even her friends were chasing after the girl. She wanted to go with Shen Xihe, but Shen Xihe had an appointment with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so she didn't dare to go forward.
On such a festive day, she was actually alone and could only wander around the street bored. When she heard the sharp screams, she was still thankful that it was not her bad luck, but she didn't know that it would soon affect her side. These people fled in a disorderly manner, causing a lot of collisions in the crowded streets, with people and stalls falling everywhere.
As a member of the Jinwu Guard, she showed her badge and tried her best to appease the crowd, but she could not suppress the panic of the crowd. At this moment, she felt an inexplicable chill on her back and turned around instinctively. A hand holding a dagger stretched out, but she just managed to dodge it. She immediately grabbed the hand.
The man was a martial artist with great strength. He spun the knife back and stabbed it towards her face again.
