Chapter 209: Ke Nuo Fell in the Water

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Ke Ruan closed his lips and his eyes dodged. He just asked him without thinking and he didn’t expect to get such an answer.

“So, didn’t you mistake me for someone else after being drunk that night?”

Si Yuhan snorted coldly. How could he mistake him for someone else? “Even if you turn into ashes, I could recognize who you are.”

Ke Ruan was speechless. Why did he feel it so strange after hearing his words?

He looked at Si Yuhan’s exquisitely delicate face and couldn’t figure it out. As long as Si Yuhan wanted, a large number of women would come like bees to a honeypot, so why would he fall in love with men?

“What’s wrong?” Seeing his confused look, Si Yuhan turned gentler. Only in front of him would Ke Ruan who liked playing clever tricks behave like this.

The belly of his finger gently rubbed the corner of Ke Ruan’s eyes, and Ke Ruan shrank for being ticklish, “No… Nothing. Why haven’t they arrived here yet? I… I’ll go and take a look first.”

“No, you needn’t, sit down.”

“Then I’ll go there and sit,” Ke Ruan pointed at a bench not far away.

“No,” Si Yuhan hugged him tightly.

Ke Ruan felt that the way they got on with each other was getting more and more strange.

All the envoys from other countries who came to the Red Flame Country would be arranged in the palace, and they would just stay there for a short while.

After Ke Nuo hurriedly left Ruanhan Palace, she ran towards her palace.

Now the weather had slowly started to become cool, the breeze was blowing and Ke Nuo trembled. She came out in a hurry so that she didn’t put on more clothes.

Just as she sped up and wanted to run back to her palace, she stepped on something and felt a sharp pain in her ankle. Then her body tipped to one side.

There was a pool beside her right hand. Ke Nuo’s small body fell in without any sign, causing a spray.

Cold water flowed into her mouth and nose.

“Help, help…” Ke Nuo beat about on the surface of water, “Help me!”

She was unable to swim and hoped someone could help her.

She coughed because of the water.

Then, there was the splash of a heavy object falling into the water and something warm approached her. Ke Nuo grabbed the person hard and treated him as her life-saving straw.

“Good girl. Relax, you’ll be fine,” the man’s gentle voice seemed to dispel the fear in Ke Nuo’s heart that she relaxed a little. Just as she relaxed, her waist was grasped and she was picked up from the water.

Even though Ke Nuo didn’t choke on much water, it was enough for her to suffer.

After going ashore, Ke Nuo felt that her body was hurting, so uncomfortable that she couldn’t say a word.

The man gently patted her back. “It’s fine, don’t be afraid…”

Ke Nuo was scared of the scene just now. There was no one here. If she was dead, would none know it at all?

If she was dead, when she was fished out, only the soaked white corpse would be left, and she could no longer have delicious food, nor could she see her brother, or her parents.

After she recovered from the sickness, Ke Nuo cried out and buried herself into the man’s arms, her shoulders twitching hard.

“Bro, dad, mum, I’m so scared. I almost died. I almost couldn’t see you anymore…” Ke Nuo grabbed the man’s clothes with snot and tears falling on him.

The man didn’t say a word from first to last. He just gently patted her back to comfort her.
