Seeing her about to fall, Prince Qing reached out and pulled her directly into his arms.
Only then did he prevent Jiang Ying from falling into the lake.
"Are you all right?" His hand gripped her waist tightly.
Having never been so intimately close to Prince Qing, Jiang Ying blushed first.
"I'm fine..." she murmured, then quickly jumped out of his embrace.
As if to cover up something, Jiang Ying, in a huff, pretended to say with a guilty heart:
"It's all the Prince's fault for chasing me, that's why I almost fell."
"The water in the lake is so cold, if I fell in, I'd lose half my life."
Prince Qing laughed along: "What are you afraid of? Firstly, I would jump in to save you, and if you were gone, I'd have to pay with half my life too."
