Qin Ruoxi didn't think too much about it, and played in the water by the lake while wearing her shoes and socks.
Qin Ruoxi got ashore shortly afterward.
"What's wrong, sister?"
Qin Ruoxi sat on the rock, and Qin Jingke took off her shoes and socks, then used his own clothes to wipe her feet.
"It's not fun, I'm all alone."
"That little river we went to before was more fun; we could catch fish and crabs there."
Qin Ruoxi pouted and said unhappily.
"Xi'er, shall we go now?"
Bai Tangyan also thought of the river that the group had visited last time, and began to speak.
"I think so too!"
As soon as Qin Ze finished speaking, he received two pairs of eyes that seemed to want to devour him.
One was Qin Jingke looking over, and the other was Fang Zixu.
"Xi'er already went swimming today, maybe next time. Otherwise, staying in the water for too long can easily make her sick."
Fang Zixu looked at Qin Ze and spoke each word clearly.
At this moment, Yu He handed the shoes and socks he had bought to Qin Ruoxi, but before Qin Ruoxi's hand could even touch them, Qin Jingke took them away.
Qin Jingke held the pink pearl-embroidered shoes in his hand, looked at them, touched them to make sure there was nothing wrong with them, and then prepared to put them on Qin Ruoxi.
Qin Ruoxi pulled her legs back and put on the clothes herself. Qin Jingke didn't say anything.
Qin Jingke tore off a piece of his inner robe and used it to change Qin Ruoxi's wet shoes and socks.
After wrapping it up, it was placed on the horse.
"Xi'er, let's go to that little inn up ahead for dinner. I think the food there is pretty good, even though it's small."
Fang Zixu glanced at everyone, then looked at Qin Ruoxi.
Qin Ze walked over to Fang Zixu, patted him on the shoulder, and sighed.
"Seriously, Young Master Fang? You asked us to treat you to dinner, and you're taking us there? How about Yizhengxiang?"
"I want to eat there. If you don't like it, you can go to Yizhengxiang by yourself."
Qin Ruoxi glared at Qin Ze and snorted as she spoke.
"Oh dear, Xi'er, that's not what Brother Ze meant."
"So what do you mean?"
Qin Ruoxi naturally knew that Qin Ze didn't mean to look down on eating in small towns, but she didn't care and continued to ask Qin Ze with her hands on her hips.
"What I mean is, since Fang Zixu is treating, let him treat us... No, no, what I mean is, I'm worried you might eat too much... No, no, what I mean is, there are many dishes at that little restaurant that are really delicious."
As Qin Ze was speaking, upon hearing Qin Ruoxi's "Hmm?", he immediately changed his tune. Then, seeing Qin Ruoxi's expression, he changed his tune again.
Qin Yu walked up to Qin Ruoxi and slapped Qin Ze on the back, causing Qin Ze to immediately start coughing.
Qin Ze didn't need to turn around to know who had slapped him. He coughed twice and turned his head away.
"Qin Yu, I'm your older brother. Don't you know how to respect your elders?"
"You actually hit your brother?!"
Qin Zi rolled her eyes at Qin Ze, not even glancing at him.
"Who do you think you are, an elder? How can you act like a brother?"
"I feel so ashamed to have you as my brother."
As she spoke, Qin Zi covered her face with her hands, unwilling to look at Qin Ze.
Seeing Qin Yu's reaction, Qin Ze was utterly speechless. Qin Yu immediately lowered her hand from her face and looked at Qin Ruoxi.
"Xi'er, you don't need to worry about him. If he doesn't want to eat, he can get lost!"
As she spoke, Qin Yan reached out and pinched Qin Ruoxi's cheek.
Qin Ruoxi's cheek had barely been touched by Qin Yan's hand when it was pulled down by another pair of hands.
"Qin Yan, what do you think of him touching Xiao Xi'er inappropriately?"
"Like a female hooligan"
Qin Yan saw the white sugar cigarette that had pulled her hand away, then reached out and pinched Qin Ruoxi's cheek.
With an incredulous look, he pointed at Bai Tangyan, who was pinching Qin Ruoxi's cheek, and then pointed at himself.
"Me? A female hooligan?"
"So what are you now?"
Qin Yan gestured for Bai Tangyan to look at what she was doing.
"Isn't it just physical assault?"
"I call this a friend, you call that a scoundrel!!!"
Qin Ruoxi watched as Bai Tangyan and Qin Yan were about to start arguing again.
He grabbed Bai Tangyan's wrist with his own hands, pulling his face away from the tiger's mouth.
He then walked up to Jun Qingzhi, smiling as he spoke to her.
"Thank you to your guard for buying me the shoes; they fit perfectly."
As Qin Ruoxi spoke, she stomped her feet on the ground. Jun Qingzhi smiled at Qin Ruoxi's expression, "You're welcome."
"After all, you're the sister I've adopted."
Qin Ruoxi simply smiled at Jun Qingzhi's use of the word "younger sister," and then continued speaking.
"There's a small shop about five kilometers ahead. The food there is pretty good. Let me treat you to a meal."
"good"
After speaking, Qin Ruoxi smiled sweetly at Jun Qingzhi, then walked to the big willow tree, untied the horse's reins, and mounted the horse.
See you at the shop up ahead!
"drive--"
After saying that, Qin Ruoxi squeezed the horse's belly with her legs and galloped forward.
Before anyone could react, Jun Qingzhi mounted her horse and caught up with Qin Ruoxi ahead.
This was outrageous! Qin Jingke, the protector of his sister, immediately gave chase with Fang Zixu.
"If you're not leaving, Bai Tangzhi and I will be the ones to go first."
Wei Yuanxuan looked at Bai Tangyan and Qin Yan, who were still staring at each other, and smiled as he spoke.
As soon as Wei Yuanxuan finished speaking, Bai Tangzhi rode away, and Wei Yuanxuan prepared to mount his horse as well.
Before I even went up, my clothes were tugged from behind.
When I looked again, Wei Yuanxuan was already standing on the ground.
He grabbed Wei Yuanxuan's white sugar cigarette, pulled on the horse's reins, and mounted the horse. With a shout of "Giddy up!", the horse galloped off.
Wei Yuanxuan stood there, watching Bai Tangyan steal his horse and ride away, and smiled with a mixture of helplessness and indulgence.
Qin Yu, who had just sat on horseback, glanced at Wei Yuanxuan and said casually, "Do you have to make it so obvious?"
After saying that, he rode off on his horse, leaving Wei Yuanxuan behind.
Wei Yuanxuan didn't react to Qin Yuan's words. Instead, he walked to the only remaining horse under the big willow tree.
He untied the reins, mounted the horse, and rode off in pursuit.
"Your riding skills are quite good."
"Of course, that's what my father taught me."
Qin Ruoxi, who was riding a horse, smiled broadly when she heard Jun Qingzhi praise her riding skills. Her eyes sparkled with pride as she spoke.
Qin Ruoxi, remembering Jun Qingzhi praising her riding skills, turned her head and glanced at Jun Qingzhi, who was riding a horse.
"Your riding skills aren't bad either."
"Then thank you for the compliment?"
"You're welcome. If you want to thank me, please treat me to a meal."
Jun Qingzhi paused slightly upon hearing Qin Ruoxi's words, then raised the corners of her mouth in a smile.
"Okay, you treat me this time, I'll treat you next time."
"OK"
Qin Ruoxi readily agreed.
After the two rode side by side for a while, Qin Ruoxi spoke.
"Want to have a race to see who gets there first?"
"The person who arrives later treats everyone to dinner?"
