"Ah, my eyes..."
Xiner!
"Ah ha, Ah Jun is going to win!"
"Oops, shes in danger!"
"Jiyin, calm down-ah..."
"Little Qianli!"
However, at the moment of crossing the line, Ah Jun had no time to fight, because there was something more important for him to act immediately--the wind and sand had cleverly blinded the eyes of the little princess and the shadow, and the horse was out of control after being frightened.
Fortunately, Ah Jun saw all this. Just as everyone was in a panic, Ah Jun, with the help of his partner, pounced on the girl and tightly protected her as she was about to fall to the ground, falling heavily to the ground.
Though a Guardian might have devised better rescue methods, the primal urge drove Ah Jun to resort to the most primitive approach without hesitation. He spared no effort to shield the girl completely—clinging to her waist with one arm while shielding her back of the head with the other, using himself as a protective cushion, completely disregarding his own safety.
"Are you okay?"
"My eyes..."
Let me blow you out... sorry... or maybe you should try to cry... how about that?
"Um... Im feeling better now. Thanks, Lü... Wait, why you? You... you leave me alone! Dont touch me!!"
" Oh !"
"Ah Jun..."
"Brother, are you all right... Hey, how can you repay kindness with hatred!"
"Xiao Xi..."
At this point, the audience waiting on the side could not resist their eagerness and rushed to the scene. However, although Ah Jun was self-sacrificing, he was met with full resistance from the little princess.
Because, just as the girls eyes recovered, the truth came out--she was full of panic, and then pushed Ah Jun down with great force...
All that could be heard was a loud bang as the boy, who had neglected himself for her, was struck again and his head hit the stone pillar at the edge of the track...
The girls actions not only provoked strong dissatisfaction from Xiao Xi and Ning er, but also left her family speechless... Only Yuwen Lu remained by her side, solely concerned about her condition.
"Xiao Xi, Ning Er, Im fine..."
"What the hell are you doing to her? You saved her, and shes being so mean to you!"
"Ah Jun... Are you okay? Youre going too far!"
"You... dare to accuse this princess? Hmph... I didnt make him do this! Mother, Father, you all saw... He just wanted to eat my tofu. I was just defending myself!"
Hey! Say it again...
Xiner!!
"Brother Law..."
"Ah, my head..."
"Ah! Brother... whats wrong?"
Just as Xiao Xi and Ninger were fighting side by side to defend their companion against the young princess, a sudden shout from Ah Jun distracted them. Then, Tian Ji, the assistant referee, arrived with the match results.
"Ah Jun... are you ok?"
Oh... well, Im a little dizzy!
"Hmm, still putting on airs..."
"Xin er, hes doing you a favor..."
"Quick, Doctor Xuan!!"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, let me... um... well... yes, I do. Just a slight concussion, nothing serious."
"Who needs him?"
Hey! You know you lost, but youre still not satisfied... You did it on purpose, didnt you?
"I... I didnt!"
Oh! By the way, Uncle Tian, whats the result?
In fact, Ah Jun did not care about the final result of the game, and he felt bad when he saw everyone arguing for him.
So he had to think again. After a look at Yuwen Law, Ah Jun suddenly turned to the trainer and asked for the result, diverting the conversation.
"Ah... In the second match, Young Master Xiao Jun narrowly lost by 0.1 seconds!"
"What... no way. How could she win? I cant believe it!"
Xiao Xi!
"Well, yes, it was the princess who won by a narrow margin. Look!"
"Well... well, thats not fair. Its not counted!"
Hmph, a real man doesnt admit defeat... Want to beat me? Impossible! Hey, you there, dont forget!
"Ah! How dare you mention it? If it werent for saving you, how could Ah Jun have lost to you!"
"I... you..."
"Very well, Xiao Xi, the princess has won, and I will accept the loss!"
The trainers decisive testimony turned the tide. The princess, who had been at a disadvantage, now wielded every advantage like a feathered quiver, swiftly overpowering her opponent. Yet Xiao Xi refused to back down. With Ning ers unwavering support, he pressed on, determined to secure justice for Ah Jun.
As the two were locked in a heated argument, the girl, still reeling from the shock, found herself under mounting public pressure. The kind-hearted Ah Jun turned down Xiao Xis offer and Ning ers concern. Then, the boy approached her slowly, smiling warmly as he knelt down to sincerely apologize for the misunderstanding.
You... what are you doing? Hey, seriously... you—oh, alright... stop—read... read what you just said... for protecting the emperor, then—still laughing! Hmph... well, this princess forgives you!
"Hey, whats up? Is this... changing sex?"
"Oh, well, well, well, well, now thats right, whats the matter between you two, eh?"
"咳咳!"
Ah... Oh! By the way, children, its getting late, so hurry to the shipping center with me!
Fortunately, although the little princess seemed to be very capricious and misunderstood the boy deeply, at this time, the sincerity of Ah Jun made the girl a little panicked and unable to calm down.
Her eyes were wide, but she dared not look directly, and her face was gradually changing from pride to hesitation and confusion.
—You... youre serious? I just said something, how could I... there be such a fool? How will people see me if you act like this? If you really want to apologize, you shouldn t do this in public. Its... so embarrassing.
Well... just now, he really saved me? Hmm... I guess my attitude wasnt the best, or maybe were even? Sigh, looking back now, hes not that bad after all. Could it be that I really misunderstood him before?
Oh well, well, forgive me... Seriously, why are you kneeling on one knee like that? Youre making a big deal out of nothing. Those who dont know might think youre begging me... Humph, a toad wanting to eat swan meat, wishful thinking!
So, the girl, who was originally pure in nature, though reluctant, still quietly stopped the boy, and then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, generously gave up the right to hold him accountable--because the sincerity and calmness of Ah Jun made the girls depression in her heart relieved.
Then, at the right moment, the mediating emperor came to the childrens side, holding one child in each hand, and began to bring them closer to each other with a smile. The others, of course, felt gratified.
So, the storm was calmed again... the situation gradually eased and became harmonious!
But there was one person, like Xiao Xi, who felt gratified for Ah Juns liberation, but her heart was restless--she was Ning er, who had broken her own principles several times for Ah Jun, and just now, regardless of the alliance, insisted on standing in the position of her companions, defending the boy in her heart.
A few minutes ago, she had been staring intently at the girl across from her, her expression icy cold. The surrounding air seemed to freeze, sending a chill through the young princesss heart. But the real victim was Xiao Xi—the one closest to Ning er. That chubby little fellow, with his thick skin and sturdy frame, was shivering from the bitter cold.
—Oh, a fairy is a fairy! Even when shes angry, she looks so beautiful. Im completely mesmerized... Hmm, fine then, why struggle? Though Ninger is great—calm, smart, and righteous... But, sis, can you please stop being so cold? Oh no...
As the tension eased, after a while, the children followed the elders lead and left the racetrack for the next venue. By then, Ning er, who had been standing aside, had regained her composure, but her awkward facial expression was still easily noticeable to others...
After all, the mind makes the face, so you can tell at a glance.
At this moment, her mood was constantly entangled with the subtle interaction between Ah Jun and the little princess, and her own uncertainty of mind had been interwoven into a tangled mess, and a knot of heart had quietly formed.
Though Ajun could sense his companions emotions, he had no time to pay attention and couldnt comprehend them. As for the Flower Guardian Xiao Xi, she was still immersed in the euphoria of the recent reversal, completely oblivious... Even if we were to consider her small head and eyes—a crude, single-celled being—shed likely struggle to grasp the situation even if she noticed.
"Ah~"
—Well? You... Ningshuang!
But everything has a soul--and though its only been a first meeting, BMWs frost seems to have entered the girls heart.
Just as Qinger was restless and fell behind the team, and stopped moving forward, suddenly a kind of warmth, gently close to her face...
"Um... no problem, thank you!"
So, Ninger was turned away by the sudden concern, and began to unconsciously let go of the entangled emotions, and gradually felt the freedom-so, her eyebrows began to relax, her face gradually softened, the corners of her mouth with a smile of surprise, interacting with the animal friends...
The combination of stunning beauty and top-notch charm has created a stunning sight... and now, even without others admiration, the two of them are shining brightly, enjoying themselves!
It turns out that the legend of heart-to-heart connection isnt limited to humans. It might actually be with creatures destined for you—like spiritually attuned cats, adorable rabbits, clever parrots, or even a flower, a blade of grass, or a leaf. Remember: Sometimes the ones who truly understand you arent us, but those youve overlooked, or even you yourselves!
