Sticking to a golden thigh
With her eyes, half-closed An Qing Ran listen to Dong Fang Jin explanation.
"Go get the Imperial physician! The second miss of An General's Fu wasn't careful and fell into the lake. The eldest miss tried to save her but she twisted her ankle as a result… Where are the guest courtyard? Lead the way quickly!"
The youth voice was dignified and didn’t leave any place for hesitation or doubts. At his commands, the people that had gathered immediately moved to execute them.
This sickly Prince was not to be ignored!
In Dongfang Jin embrace An Qing Ran slightly opened her eyes and met the youth gaze. Startled she immediately shut them again and started to wonder…
Isn’t she reborn? Why was she afraid of this teenager?
"Put me down!"
Said An Qing Ran as she abruptly regained consciousness.
"If Benwang let you down, can Benwang leave and not be bothered about this matter?"
Dong fang Jin spoke in a very low voice so nobody else could hear him talk.
An Qing Ran face flushed. At the end of the day, she didn't really want to let him go and deal with the situation by herself.
She was only a twelve years old girl in the eyes of others… For the Taizi to take care of her like this. It shouldn’t be considered improper right?
(Taizi = Crown prince)
Thinking about it that way she gave Dongfang Jin light smile.
"Wangye please work hard!"
"Don't say another word. Once you feel better, we will have a proper talk…" Replied Dongfang Jin as his lips curved into a devilish smile.
An Qing Ran was shocked, she didn't hold any grudges against this youth from her past life. But since she got the chance to start over, Qing Ran didn't want for them to develop some kind of relationship.
Dealing with Dongfang Ye was enough! She must never get pulled into the bloody battle of the Imperial family!
When Dongfang Jin noticed the girl dark face he raised an eyebrow.
"What? Does An Xiao Jie feels a bit sorry for this Wang?"
"No"
"Oh. If it so what is An Xiao Jie thinking about?"
"I was thinking that it must be boring for Wangye to attend these gatherings. Isn't it boring for Wangye to meet with kids?"
Dongfang Jin suddenly moved his handsome face closer.
"And how old An Xiao Jie think she is?"
A knock came at the door and Qin Xiang Ning came into the room followed by two handmaids.
//ED note: It does not say when they entered the room and he placed her unto the bed but apparently that happened…//
Coming forward she curtseyed.
"This young miss greets his Highness…"
"Considering the circumstances, you don't need to be so polite." Dismissed Dong Fang Jin lightly.
At his words, Qin Xian Ning straightened her back and came closer. Her pale face was full of distress.
"An Xiao Jie for such unfortunate events to occur! This is all due to Xiang Ning's negligence!"
Looking at the girl in front of her, An Qing Ran wondered how she could get along so well with An Yan Ran? Also how did these young ladies that barely leave the inner yard, knew how to follow when the wind blows?
Why did she come to greet her instead of An Yan Ran?
Did the news that her Yiniang fell out of favor spread already? It shouldn’t be… The matters of An Fu's weren’t such big occurrences. Why would the rumor spread so fast?
Qing Ran did not think more about the matter and replied to the girl in front of her.
"Qin Xiao Jie must not blame herself! Mei Mei and I were not careful! If you take the blame, this miss will feel guilty!"
//ED note: Well isn't it obvious that Qin Xiao Jie would come to her because the Crown Prince is taking care of her? What do you think? //
