Chapter 2467 Ying Bao (70)
Suddenly, her body felt light. Being hugged by the man, Ying Bao’s heart almost jumped out of her throat. She subconsciously hugged him with her arms.
It was a strange feeling to be suddenly picked up by him. Her heart was thumping non-stop. She was nervous and shy. She wanted him to put her down, but she could not say a word. Ying Bao remembered that a long time ago, Huangfu Xuanye used to hug her too but at that time, she didn’t know anything. She didn’t know anything about romance, so she only treated his embrace as a fatherly hug.
But it was different now. Ever since she realized her feelings for Huangfu Xuanye, she felt embarrassed to be in contact with him.
Huangfu Xuanye carried her back to the princess bedroom in the palace that was exclusive to her, and gently placed her on a chair. He knelt on one knee in front of her and looked at her gently. “Little fool, why are you in such a disheveled state? Are you hurt anywhere?”
Ying Bao shook her head. She wasn’t hurt. She was just a little dirty.
“I’m glad you’re not hurt. Wait for me. I’ll put some water in for you. Come and take a bath!”
Ying Bao nodded. Huangfu Xuanye personally went to the bathroom and helped her fill the tub with water. After he was done, he came out and picked her up again. He said, “Now take a good bath.”
Ying Bao was very obedient.
Huangfu Xuanye smiled as he looked at the obedient girl in his arms. He sent her into the bathroom and said, “Everything you use is in place. If you need anything, press this bell.” He found a call button and placed it on the countertop.
“Do you want me to call a maid to help you wash?” Huangfu Xuanye asked, considering that she couldn’t move her right hand well.
Ying Bao shook her head.
“Okay, I’m going out now. You take your time and I’ll come find you later.”
Huangfu Xuanye closed the door and left.
Ying Bao finally let out a sigh of relief. She scanned the sparkling and gorgeous bathroom and finally looked at herself in the mirror. When she first looked at herself, she was shocked by her appearance. ‘What the hell? How did I end up looking like such a mess?’
It was easy to imagine how shocking it was for everyone when she appeared in the main hall like this. Even her parents probably did not recognize her.
Ying Bao could not stand her dirty self. She took off her clothes and started to shower.
After sending Ying Bao back to her room to take a shower, Huangfu Xuanye came out and ordered someone to take care of the wedding.
His assistant, Sheng Yi, came back and reported to him that the wedding venue had already been settled. All the guests who were willing to stay had already arranged accommodations. As for canceling the wedding, Sheng Yi wanted to ask the king what he thought about it.
“No matter what, I’m the one who canceled the engagement first. As for the Shen family, I’m willing to compensate them and ask Butler Shen and Shen Wanxin for their opinion. In regard to the response to the public, instruct the news team to release an announcement and explain it to the media and the whole country.”
“Understood. I’ll make the arrangements right away.”
“Are Princess Cherry’s parents still here?”
“They’ve already returned to the country.”
“Okay.” Huangfu Xuanye did not say anything else and turned to look for Ying Bao.
After washing herself clean from head to toe, she wrapped a towel around her body and gently opened the bathroom door. She took a glance outside and saw that there was no one outside. Only then did she feel relieved and walked out.
This was the room she used to stay in every time she came. Everything in it was still the same. It looked very familiar.
Ying Bao went to the closet and opened the door. She wanted to find a suitable set of clothes to wear. It was inconvenient for her to search with her right hand, so she could only press down on the towel in front of her chest and reach in with her left hand to search.
