Chapter 260 - 260: Soaking in the Hot Spring
Lu Ying said as she watched the man emerge from the shadows and stand firmly in front of her.
It was none other than Dong Yan.
When she met Dong Yan’s cold eyes, Lu Ying’s pretty face couldn’t help but turn red. Her gaze then swept over her small hand that was being held tightly by Dong Yan. In the end, she lowered her voice and asked, “Brother Dong Yan, aren’t you serving His Highness? Why did you come here?”
Who knew that when Dong Yan heard Lu Ying’s question, a mysterious smile appeared on his face. “1 was serving His Highness, but His Highness forbade me from entering, so I could only wait here.”
At first, Lu Ying did not understand what Dong Yan meant by his words, but when she realized what he meant, she immediately widened her eyes in shock. She was so frightened that she could not even speak. “Brother Dong Yan! You mean that His Highness is inside now…”
“Shh!” Dong Yan was shocked. He quickly raised his hand to cover Lu Ying’s mouth and warned her with a serious expression, “Shh, don’t make such loud noises. Otherwise, you might disturb the people in the courtyard.”
“But Miss Su also went in.” Lu Ying looked at Dong Yan with a worried expression. She could not help but lower her voice. “Wouldn’t it be bad if Miss Su finds out that something is wrong?”
“You don’t need to worry. His Highness intended it this way.” Seeing that Lu Ying was still confused, Dong Yan lowered his voice again. “His Highness said that Miss Su likes it this way!”
Lu Ying realized that she couldn’t fully understand what Dong Yan meant at all. However, since Dong Yan had already said so, Lu Ying could only nod her head in a half-understanding manner and obediently wait outside the door with Dong Yan.
Meanwhile, after Su Qian walked into the courtyard, she changed her clothes behind the folding screen and walked to the hot spring.
The surface of the hot spring water rippled, and wisps of white mist rose, almost obscuring Su Qian’s vision. After taking a deep breath, she looked at the pleasant scenery in front of her with a bright smile and lifted her foot into the warm hot spring.
Feeling the warm water wrap around her feet, Su Qian felt an incredible sense of contentment. Then, she slowly walked into the light green hot spring, lifting her feet with each step.
Soon, the gauzy dress on her body was soaked by the hot spring. However, Su Qian did not mind at all. Instead, she continued to soak half of her body in the water. The warm hot spring water seemed to hasten the flow of her blood as if the fatigue on her body was about to be completely washed away. It was an incredibly pleasant sensation.
“It’s a pity that there’s no hot spring in my residence. Otherwise, 1 would definitely build a pool like this. Soaking in it would truly be refreshing.” Su Qian spread her arms and leaned her back against the edge of the glass pool. She narrowed her eyes and enjoyed the feeling of being soaked in the water.
Just as Su Qian was increasingly immersed in her enjoyment, the calm water surface in front of her suddenly formed a bubble.
Gulp, gulp, gulp.
After one bubble rolled out, the remaining bubbles rolled out even faster. One after another, it was as if someone was exhaling underwater. Su Qian looked at the bubble in confusion.
The light green hot spring made it difficult for Su Qian to see what was hidden in the water.
However, Su Qian saw that the bubbles on the surface of the water not far away were becoming more and more intense as if the water was boiling. She couldn’t help but raise her hand and approach it..
