Chapter 499
At that moment, her mind went blank.
Fortunately, Pei Yanzhou jumped off immediately when her horse stopped. Seeing Cheng Xi fall, he rushed over to catch Cheng Xi.
But because he tilted too hard when picking up someone, they both fell onto the grass.
However, Cheng Xi didn't feel any pain. She fell firmly into Pei Yanzhou's arms, and Pei Yanzhou put his arm on the back of her head to avoid hurting her head.
Cheng Xi looked at the blue sky and white clouds above his head and stayed there for several seconds.
She almost thought she was going to break a bone.
If not….
Cheng Xi quickly got up and looked at the man beneath him. His nervous throat was dry, "Pei Yanzhou, are you okay?"
"It's not bad, but my nose was hit by your hand." Pei Yanzhou lay on the grass, touching his straight nose, his handsome face wrinkled slightly in pain.
Cheng Xi hurried over and checked his nose. Fortunately, it was not flattened or broken.
"Sorry." Cheng Xi apologized in a low voice.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? Protecting the woman he likes is what a man should do." Pei Yanzhou sat up with his arms propped up and looked her up and down, "Did you feel any pain from the fall?"
Cheng Xi looked at the man's concerned eyebrows, and for a moment, her heart softened.
Pei Yanzhou is quite handsome when he's not a scumbag.
"No......."
"Cheng Xi, are you not injured?"
At this time, Lu Chongli and Ling Zheng all ran over. Everyone was panicked, especially Han Yaoting. If it hadn't been for Hanya Cheng's whip, Cheng Xi's horse would not have been frightened.
"It's okay. Fortunately, Pei Yanzhou saved me when I fell." Cheng Xi stood up and then pulled Pei Yanzhou up.
"Yeah, I almost broke my bones."
Cheng Xi sneered and asked, "Where's Hanya Cheng?"
Han Yaoting was panicked and complained in his heart, "Cheng Xi, I didn't know she would do such a thing, she..."
"Young Master Han, you don't want to intercede for her, do you?" Cheng Xi looked at him coldly.
Han Yaoting was two heads tall. When he met Pei Yanzhou's cold eyes, he almost wanted to vomit blood. "Let me call my cousin. I don't know how to deal with this matter."
Cheng Xi ignored her and walked straight down the hillside.
...
At the bottom of the mountain, Shen Yu was angry to death with his daughter.
"Who wants you to whip Cheng Xi's horse? There are so many people watching."
"I hate her. Whoever lets her horse entangle my pony, it's best... to throw her to death." Han Yacheng's little eyes were full of disgust. She hated Cheng Yue as much as she hated him. I hate Cheng Xi so much.
"Shut up." Shen Yu lowered his voice and warned, "With so many people present, do you know that the man beside Cheng Xi is not easy to mess with? Didn't my mother tell you that you must learn to treat people differently?"
Hanya Cheng snorted, "What are you afraid of? Anyway, my great-grandfather is not an ordinary person. No one can afford to offend him. Besides, my uncle will also protect me."
"There is a world out there, and there are people out there. Your uncle is friends with that man, so he may not protect you."
Shen Yu was not a fool. In just a few meetings, she could tell that Han Yaoting was afraid of offending the man around Cheng Xi. This showed that the man's status in Su City might be higher than that of the Han family.
In addition, when she was dealing with the Han family in the past, she heard that Han Yaoting had a good relationship with the Pei family in Sioux City. It was very likely that he was the youngest person in power in the Pei family.
