Qin Yu chuckled and, still granting Xia Lan's request, reached out his hand to Bai Xue.
Everyone thought that Bai Xue would show the same anger she had shown towards Yang Ziye, but surprisingly, Bai Xue stood obediently in place, letting Qin Yu stroke her.
Although it was still a little annoyed, it held back.
"Why?"
Xia Lan looked at Qin Yu curiously.
Qin Yu chuckled and raised his hand.
"I just touched you, and it smells like you."
"You cheated!"
Xia Lan laughed.
Qin Yu chuckled and walked to the brown horse next to Bai Xue. The brown horse sniffed Qin Yu's scent and then affectionately leaned against him.
The brown horse's groom, seeing Qin Yu's actions, couldn't help but ask.
"Have you studied this before?"
Qin Yu nodded.
"I've ridden it before."
"Then it's up to you." Knowing that Qin Yu could ride a horse, the horseman handed the reins to Qin Yu without hesitation.
Snow White's horse trainer was teaching Xia Lan some riding techniques, instructing her on how to communicate with the horse and make it move or stop.
With the help of the horse master, Yang Ziye had already mounted his horse and was waiting for Xia Lan and Qin Yu.
Xia Lan was about to mount her horse when the horseman gestured for her to step on his feet. At that moment, Qin Yu walked over, picked Xia Lan up, and gently placed her on Bai Xue's horse.
Qin Yu's actions stunned everyone present, who then exchanged knowing smiles.
Xia Lan sat on Bai Xue's back, stroking its saddle.
"Giddy up." Remembering Master Ma's teachings, Xia Lan spoke cautiously, then gently kicked Bai Xue with her legs, not daring to use force for fear of hurting Bai Xue.
Bai Xue obediently started walking forward. When Xia Lan saw that it really followed her instructions, she couldn't help but turn around and look at Qin Yu.
Qin Yu smirked, nimbly mounted his horse, and then spurred it on. Without even uttering a word, the horse received the command and trotted to catch up with Xia Lan ahead.
Several horse trainers watched as Qin Yu mounted his horse with great style.
"This isn't someone who's ridden before; this is clearly a veteran," the brown horse's groom laughed.
"His mounting posture is even cooler than mine." Yang Ziye's eyes lit up, and he immediately spurred his horse to catch up with the two.
Seeing that the three had already set off, Honglian slowly prepared to mount her horse.
"...Sister Hong, are you going to mount your horse?" The horse trainers looked at Honglian in astonishment.
Honglian always prepares an extra horse when she brings people for the first time, but that's just to prevent unexpected situations, not because she's going to participate.
"Hmm!" Honglian was wearing a skirt, which made it difficult to mount the horse, so she tore a slit in the skirt to allow her to move freely.
Seeing Honglian spur her horse to chase after the three, the horse trainers exchanged glances and decided it would be safer to inform Zhang Jin.
Xia Lan rode on the horse's back, her hands loosely holding the reins. So this is what it feels like to ride a horse. It's really interesting.
"Brother Qin, wanna run a race?"
Yang Ziye caught up and extended an invitation to Qin Yu.
"I'm not going, you go!" Qin Yu's eyes never left Xia Lan, letting Yang Ziye go run by himself, he wanted to keep an eye on his wife.
"Brother Yu, you go with him! I want to see you guys run a race! Besides, I'll just walk slowly, nothing will happen to me," Xia Lan said to Qin Yu with a smile.
It's rare for us to get out and have some fun.
She had just seen Qin Yu mount his horse; he looked incredibly handsome.
Qin Yu had also encountered a fine horse after a long time. Hearing Xia Lan's thoughtfulness, he reached out and patted her head, then gestured to Yang Ziye.
"Walk!"
Yang Ziye's eyes lit up, and he immediately clenched his saddle.
"drive!"
He charged out first.
Qin Yu told him to run first, then turned to look at Xia Lan.
"I'll be back soon!"
Xia Lan nodded obediently.
Qin Yu spurred the horse, and the brown horse immediately began to gallop, chasing after Yang Ziye.
Xia Lan's gaze was fixed on Qin Yu.
The horse was running very fast. Xia Lan saw Qin Yu leaning close to the horse's back, and no matter how the horse moved, his figure remained steady.
That balance is incredible.
...This man is way too handsome!
sleepy.
Why don't you run?
Honglian's voice rang out beside Xia Lan. Xia Lan turned around and saw Honglian, who had somehow appeared beside her, standing parallel to her.
"I haven't lived enough yet."
Xia Lan glanced at Hong Lian.
"Why do you want to expose me and Brother Yu? Today is our first meeting, isn't it?"
Xia Lan was puzzled. It was only their first meeting, yet Hong Lian always seemed to want to ruin her relationship with Qin Yu.
"Are you interested in me, or in Brother Yu?"
Honglian smiled when she heard Xia Lan's words.
"Hahaha... What are you thinking with your head?"
"Then why did you do that? It's really disgusting."
Xia Lan raised an eyebrow. "Could you please give me a reason?"
"I just can't stand your kind of love."
Honglian stopped smiling and said softly.
"Oh, you were dumped by your lover?"
Xia Lan saw the fleeting resentment in Hong Lian's eyes and had a flash of inspiration.
"..." Honglian glanced at Xia Lan and fell silent.
"He and I used to be just like you, we only had eyes for each other!"
Honglian gazed into the distance, recalling those happy times, her eyes filled with happiness. But then, as if remembering something, her eyes filled with sorrow.
"But our love could not escape the constraints of societal norms. He chose to abandon me and marry a woman of equal social standing."
"Ha, what about forever, what about never being apart..."
"That's all men's nonsense. No man is any good."
