When the two of them came back, Xiao Nan was giving Doubao and Qingying extra food. "Go to sleep after you finish eating. Don't be so sensitive to things, especially you, Qingying, do you hear me?"
Qingying's ears perked up instantly when Xiaonan patted her head. "Huh? Are they back?" Xiaonan stood up and looked outside. Sure enough, the two of them returned side by side.
Xu Zhaoyue herself knows how to ride horses, but she used to go to the horse farm to ride horses. After returning to work, she never went again. The white horse that Yue Lanxing bought made her interested in going to the horse farm to pick one out.
They came to the horse farm the following weekend.
Yue Lanxing looked at the horse farm, which had no fewer than fifty horses, and that was all he could see with his naked eye. The horse farm was very large and located in the south.
“Miss, these horses look more spirited.” Yue Lanxing said to Xu Zhaoyue as their people from the horse farm led the horses over.
"That white horse is mainly used for driving carriages, so it should be trained to be more docile. Most of the horses here are more spirited. Look at the one riding towards us."
Xu Zhaoyue saw a horse galloping over in the distance. The rider looked familiar, so she pointed in that direction for Yue Lanxing to look. Yue Lanxing squinted for a few seconds and immediately recognized her. "It's Miss He coming."
"Really, Lotus!" Xu Zhaoyue waved and called out. When the horse came up in front of her, she saw He Lianhua sitting on it. "I heard the horseman over there say that you were coming, so I quickly ran over."
He Lianhua dismounted from her horse, patted the horse's head, and looked at Xu Zhaoyue, "Want to ride a lap with me? It's been so long since we've gotten together."
"Sure, but you have to let me ride around first. I haven't ridden in a long time, so I need to stretch my legs," Xu Zhaoyue said, moving her arms.
They put their things down at the resting place, and Xu Zhaoyue picked out a reddish-brown horse and rode it. With a clever pull on the reins, she made the horse change direction.
"You two stay here for a while, I'll be back in ten minutes." Xu Zhaoyue turned to look at Yue Lanxing and He Lianhua, then whipped her whip and galloped away.
Yue Lanxing watched Xu Zhaoyue's carefree back, her eyes following her until she turned the corner and disappeared from sight.
Seeing how focused he was, He Lianhua waited until Xu Zhaoyue had run far away before speaking to Yue Lanxing, "Alright, stop looking. She's already far away. Your intentions are too obvious."
"Huh?" Yue Lanxing was briefly surprised, then lowered his head, silently reminding himself not to reveal his relationship with the young lady in front of others. He then raised his head again, pretending to be calm, and asked, "Is it particularly obvious?"
He Lianhua nodded, "Stop pretending, okay? I've met so many people, trying to fake it in front of me? Have you ever..."
How did you two end up together?
As He Lianhua was asking the question, Yue Lanxing was also racking his brains for an answer when a voice came from behind them. They turned around and saw Xu Zhaoming there.
"What? You, a bodyguard, can sit on equal footing with Miss He? Who gave you the guts? Get up right now!" Xu Zhaoming said, arms crossed, looking at Yue Lanxing.
“Second Miss, I have been the villa’s housekeeper for a long time, and I am not your subordinate. You have no right to order me around.” Yue Lanxing sat there motionless.
Seeing that he showed her no respect whatsoever, Xu Zhaoming raised the whip in his hand, ready to strike. "Xu Zhaoming, you dare to try hitting me!" Xu Zhaoyue's voice rang out, accompanied by the sound of whipping through the air.
Then Xu Zhaoming felt a long whip appear in front of her, and the whip in her hand flew out. "Ah! Who!" She turned her head and saw Xu Zhaoyue dressed in red riding clothes, elegantly and noblely reining in her horse.
And looking at the long whip in her hand, there's no need to say more.
"What are you doing? You almost hit me, do you know that?" Xu Zhaoming said angrily.
Xu Zhaoyue did not dismount. She slowly wrapped the long whip back around her hand. "I'm hitting you. What were you trying to do just now? Did I pretend I didn't see it? Have I made you comfortable these past two days? Now you have time to show off your power?"
Upon seeing Xu Zhaoyue approach, Yue Lanxing immediately stood up and hid behind her, pitifully saying, "Miss, I'm not injured."
"What are you pretending to be pitiful for? You're just a gigolo!" Xu Zhaoming pointed at Yue Lanxing's nose and cursed.
Just as Xu Zhaoyue was about to crack the whip again, someone spoke up, "How come I didn't know my cousin was a gigolo?" Yue Mingze stood there nonchalantly.
"You are... from the Yue family? You're from the Yue family?" Xu Zhaoming looked at Yue Lanxing with a shocked expression. After matching Yue Mingze's face with the person she remembered, she immediately realized that Yue Lanxing was related to the Yue family.
Yue Lanxing was blocked by the horse and didn't see Yue Mingze coming over. When Xu Zhaoming questioned him, he only replied coldly, "There is some connection."
"You!" Xu Zhaoming wanted to say something more, but Xu Zhaoyue didn't want to see her anymore. "Crack!" Another whip lashed the ground, the sound startling Xu Zhaoming, who took a step back. "Ah!"
"What do you mean 'you'? I'm in a bad mood today and don't want to see you. You'd better get out of my sight right now. Three, two..." Before Xu Zhaoyue could even count to one, Xu Zhaoming had already left, cursing and swearing.
He Lianhua was stunned. What was going on? Who knew? She had just wanted to ask Yue Lanxing if he liked Xiaoyue. Now, should she distance herself from these people? It seemed like there was no place for her.
“Cousin, how come people are still calling you a gigolo? If you had left the Xu family before, they would have called you President Yue by now.” Yue Mingze said as he came over and pulled Yue Lanxing. “My dad is over there, let’s go together.”
"Young Miss!" Yue Lanxing turned to look at Xu Zhaoyue, his eyes pleading for help, but Xu Zhaoyue smiled and waved at him, "President Yue, you go ahead and get busy, remember to come back." Then she watched him being pulled away with a grin.
