Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Xuexue reached out with gratitude and said pitifully, "Fourth Prince, thank you."

The hero saved the beauty, and the Fourth Prince was thrilled.

He grabbed Xuexue's hand and pulled her to his side. On top of Stone Mountain, the wind was strong, causing their clothes to flutter loudly. The Fourth Prince's chin happened to rest on Xuexue's head, and a faint fragrance wafted to his nose. He greedily took a deep breath.

After waiting for a while, the Fourth Prince still did not react.

Xuexue felt puzzled in her heart. She raised her eyes and saw the Fourth Prince looking at her with a peculiar smile, which made her feel very disgusted. However, on the surface, she remained calm.

"Fourth Prince, aren't we going down?"

The Fourth Prince took a deep breath, placed his hand on Xuexue's shoulder, and said in a voice filled with intoxication, "Xuexue, look how beautiful the scenery is here! It's just the two of us, with no one else bothering us. Beauty, scenery, these are indeed some of life's greatest pleasures."

As he spoke, he rubbed his chin on Xuexue's head a few more times.

Anger surged in Xuexue's heart. Did this scoundrel still think she was ignorant like in her past life?

However, even though she was very angry, Xuexue held it in without showing a trace.

She said in a shy voice, "Fourth Prince, it's too cold here. Let's go down."

Such a charming beauty, the Fourth Prince's heart melted, and he quickly said, "Alright, alright, we'll go down right away."

With that, he reached out to wrap his arms around Xuexue's waist, and with a leap, he jumped down from Stone Mountain.

Below Stone Mountain, there were many people gathered, all of whom had been helping to find Miss Situ and had been alerted by the Empress Dowager. Of course, the Empress Dowager was there with the palace maids too.

Just as they were about two or three meters from the ground, Xuexue's eyes flashed, and she lightly tapped the Fourth Prince's side unintentionally.

The Fourth Prince suddenly felt numb all over, and lost control of his limbs, plummeting straight down...

By coincidence, Xuexue remained on a protruding rock.

The Fourth Prince, alone, fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string, plummeting at lightning speed.

Everything happened so suddenly that everyone was stunned. Before they could react, the Fourth Prince landed in front of them like a broken sack.

"Thud!"

A loud crash echoed.

They felt a shiver run down their spines, thinking how painful it must have been to fall from such a height.

"Oh dear!"

The Fourth Prince was dizzy and disoriented, not knowing what had happened. He had jumped down so gracefully with the beauty, but ended up falling so pathetically.

"Oh dear, Empress Dowager, help! This is killing your grandson."

The Empress Dowager frowned, "What a disgrace!"

Without needing her instruction, the eunuchs and palace maids rushed forward to help the Fourth Prince up.

"Fourth Prince, are you alright?"

"Does it look like I'm alright?"

Humiliated in front of everyone, the Fourth Prince was angry and embarrassed, especially in front of Xue Ren.

He suddenly remembered Situ Xueer and quickly turned his head to look for her, shouting loudly, "Where's Miss Situ? Where did Miss Situ go? Did she fall?"

Everyone then recalled that the only person who fell from Stone Mountain was the Fourth Prince; Miss Situ hadn't fallen at all.

So, everyone looked up and indeed saw Situ Xueer clinging to Stone Mountain, looking at them pitifully.

"Fourth Prince, are you alright? Did you get hurt?" Xuexue lay on the rock, peering down and asking pitifully.

The Fourth Prince's heart was captivated, and suddenly, the pain from his fall didn't seem so unbearable. It all seemed worth it.
