“Xiao Ya is a princess of Manyi Kingdom. Since she’s here, how can she not go inside?” Man Hanting said, reaching out to grab the horse’s reins. His hand was so quick that people couldn’t react, and in the blink of an eye, the reins were in Man Hanting’s hand… Hu Yannan’s palm was forcibly withdrawn…
Shan Xiaoya heard Man Hanting’s words and looked at Hu Yannan in confusion. She asked softly, “General, is what he said true about my identity? Am I a princess of Manyi Kingdom?”
Hu Yannan, who was about to say “no,” looked at the crowd below and, after careful consideration, silently nodded.
Shan Xiaoya’s cold eyes suddenly showed a different light. She tried to break free from Hu Yannan’s embrace. “General, please let go quickly. I want to get down.”
Hearing Shan Xiaoya’s somewhat displeased tone, Hu Yannan’s heart tightened, and the fear of losing her filled his mind. “Xiao Ya!”
Shan Xiaoya stubbornly said, “I want to get down! I want to get down!”
Hu Yannan didn’t look at Man Hanting, increased the strength of his arms, and held the person in his embrace tightly, afraid she might fly away. He almost pleaded with the woman in his arms, “Xiao Ya, let’s leave here!”
“No! I want to get down. I want to see the place where I used to live. I don’t understand why I appeared ‘there,’ and I don’t want to know. But now that I know my identity, I want to see it. General, please, let me go!” Her lively eyes were misty…
Hu Yannan furrowed his brows, feeling suffocated, swallowed hard, and reluctantly dismounted with Shan Xiaoya. His hand around her waist never loosened, always protecting her under his wings…
Man Hanting signaled to his subordinate, and a guard approached, eagerly taking the reins from Hu Yannan. Man Hanting extended his arm and gestured towards the city. Hu Yannan led Shan Xiaoya inside.
Man Hanting looked at Hu Yannan’s back, beckoned a personal guard, whispered something in his ear, and the guard quickly left after acknowledging the order.
