Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Forty-five years was a terrifying number. A relationship that was unaffected after 45 years of separation was so precious. It was definitely unique for them to be still be as loving as before after 45 years of separation.
Hence, Mo Qingqin and Chu Zhiyuan cherished every second they had together.
She had never thought that dating at 80 years old could be so pa.s.sionate…
The two of them were joined at the hip every day. No matter where Mo Qingqin went, Chu Zhiyuan followed, afraid that Mo Qingqin would disappear again.
“Chu Zhiyuan! What’s wrong with you? Do you have to follow me everywhere?”
Mo Qingqin—who had been stuck to him for a few days—finally couldn’t help but flare up.
“Yes!” Chu Zhiyuan wheedled to Mo Qingqin.
Grandpa, you’ve changed. You’ve really changed. You’ve become a love-struck fool!
However, Jian Dan and Chu Liyuan were very happy to see the sweet interaction between Mo Qingqin and Chu Zhiyuan because the two of them were their most important family members in this world.
As for Jian Dan, she finally faced the G.o.ddess of War—Wei Qianyi—for the first time!
After a period of hard work, the new project was finally on the right track, so it was time for some relaxation. The location Jian Dan chose was a racecourse…
What about the racecourse? To Jian Dan, it was definitely something very novel because she had never been there before, let alone ridden a horse.
This should have been a very romantic experience…
Just imagine… Jian Dan wearing white equestrian clothing and riding a brownish-red horse. Chu Liyuan holding the reins of the horse with one hand and walking slowly on the gra.s.s. The two of them exchanging looks every once in a while… Like a scene straight out of an oil painting. It was definitely a very sweet moment.
Unexpectedly…
“h.e.l.lo, you must be Jian Dan! Liyuan always talks about you. I finally get to meet you today!” When Wei Qianyi saw Jian Dan, she put on a polite smile and extended her hand to her in a friendly manner.
“h.e.l.lo! I’m Jian Dan. I’ve also heard a lot about you from Uncle. He said that you’re very formidable!” Jian Dan reached out and shook Wei Qianyi’s hand.
The last time she went to Qin Corporation, she only saw her back view. Today, when she saw her in person, she realized that those people were not exaggerating at all. How could she be so beautiful?! She could almost be compared to Yujin. Moreover, her eyes revealed the capableness that Yujin did not have.
“Jian Jian, this is Little Raindrop. She’s more docile. You can ride her!” Chu Liyuan introduced as he led a white horse to Jian Dan.
“Little Raindrop? Her name is so cute!”
“Look at the spot of black hair on her head—it’s shaped like a raindrop, so I named her Little Raindrop!”
“Yeah, I saw that!”
Chu Liyuan helped Jian Dan mount the horse…
Jian Dan thought that Chu Liyuan would have helped her hold the reins of the horse. After all, this was a dangerous sport, especially since she was a newbie who had never ridden a horse before.
However, she did not expect her opponent to be so formidable…
“Liyuan, we haven’t had a race in a long time. Game for one now?” Wei Qianyi asked Chu Liyuan as she rode a black horse.
“Jian Jian, can you manage alone?”
She saw the antic.i.p.ation in Chu Liyuan’s eyes. Although she did not want to, she was afraid that Chu Liyuan would be disappointed, so she braced herself and said, “Uncle, go ahead! I’ll practice by myself first!”
“Are you sure you’re alright?” Chu Liyuan confirmed with her again.
A selfish thought flashed across Jian Dan’s mind. Why don’t I make Uncle stay behind?But in the end, she still let Chu Liyuan go…
“I’ll be careful. It’s fine!” She put on a brave front.
“Then you must be careful!”
“You must protect her well. Don’t let her get hurt!” After reminding Jian Dan, he reminded the person who was holding the reins of Jian Dan’s horse.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Chu. I’ll definitely proceed with care and ensure Mrs. Chu’s safety.”
Seeing that Chu Liyuan was still a little worried, she gave him a rea.s.suring look before he mounted the horse.
Uncle’s posture is so suave! How can there be such an outstanding man in this world?!
Looking at Chu Liyuan and Wei Qianyi’s backs, Jian Dan felt a little disappointed.
However, since she had agreed to it herself, she had to endure it no matter how uncomfortable it was!
