Chapter 231: He Carried Her In His Arms
Long Yang's lips pursed when he saw her acting so politely. He took his outer robe from her without saying a word.

Lu Liangwei tried to stand up by balancing herself against the tree, but her legs were so numb as if many ants were nibbling on her.

Lu Liangwei frowned and massaged her legs. She wanted to try standing up again once the numbness subsided when Long Yang's long, slender fingers reached over and helped her stand up without allowing her any room for protest.

"Is it very numb?" His voice was husky and they were quite close to each other. The fresh, fragrant scent on him filled up Lu Liangwei's nostrils dominantly.

Lu Liangwei blushed without warning.

She was suddenly enveloped by his manly aura.

She felt a little embarrassed but it was not a good idea to push him away.

"Yes," she replied quietly.

Long Yang did not say anything. He placed the outer robe in his hands over her shoulders and carried her in his arms.

Lu Liangwei was surprised as she suddenly felt herself being lifted in the air, but she did not scream.

She was especially quiet and obedient.

Long Yang lowered his eyes to look at her. A smile flashed in his deep, mysterious eyes, and he was even able to ignore the slight pain in his left hand.

He carried her and walked easily back into the foreyard.

When they were about to reach the foreyard, Lu Liangwei finally said, "My legs are no longer numb."

Long Yang did not force anything onto her as he bent over to place her down.

Lu Liangwei was secretly relieved the moment her feet landed on the ground. She quickly said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late. I should be returning."

Long Yang nodded. "Yes, I'm about to return to the Palace too. Let me see you back."

Lu Liangwei darted him a glance. "Aren't you staying?"

Long Yang lifted his left arm. "There's no imperial physician here."

The expression on Lu Liangwei's face changed as she quickly held his hand. "I almost forgot about this. Are you feeling okay?"

He had just been carrying her all the way back from behind the mountains.

Long Yang's lips curved upwards slightly. "I'm fine. You're quite light."

Lu Liangwei was feeling a little worried.

She had completely forgotten about his wounded left arm.

"I'm really alright. You can check if you don't believe it. It's okay."

Lu Liangwei checked his wound with care and felt relieved to find that it was not bleeding.

!
"Your Majesty, please don't do this next time," she said with a solemn face.

A light smile flashed deep in Long Yang's eyes. "Are you worried about me?"

"You're the Emperor and you were hurt because of me. Naturally, I would be worried," Lu Liangwei said without much thought.

Long Yang's expression faltered slightly. "You can stop worrying now. I'm completely fine."

Lu Liangwei placed her hands down. "Alright, then I should be returning."

Long Yang walked in front of her toward the holiday home entrance. "I'll see you back."

Lu Liangwei did not decline. She was not in a position to do so too.
