Chapter 43 Tenderness
Was she trying to seduce him?
With great difficulty, he turned his face away. His slender white fingers touched the white and soft cloth that had left her body, making a rustling sound as he tried to help her put it on.
“Yao’er is the number one beauty of Nan Shao Kingdom. She is naturally beautiful!”
Wen Xingyuan didn’t dare to look at her charming appearance. Even though he really did want to, he still understood whether he was being rude or not!
At this moment, his jade-like face was flushed red.
“Yao’er, I’ve decided to marry you!”
Wen Xingyuan didn’t want his first encounter with her to take place in a carriage, so he strongly restrained his desire for her.
What?
Marry her?
“Hehe, don’t be so serious!”
She didn’t want to marry so easily. She still wanted to play around for several years before marrying again!
“Yao’er, there are rumors that you are seriously ill, I …”
“I will definitely find a good doctor to treat you!”
Wen Xingyuan frowned.
Seriously ill?
That was a lie to deceive King of Qi and the others, alright!?
Hearing this, the corner of Feng Zhiyao’s mouth twitched. It seemed that she had lied too much.
Just when Feng Zhiyao didn’t know how to reply, the carriage jolted, and Feng Zhiyao was knocked to the left and right. The wind blew the carriage’s curtain, and the train of her dress rose up, revealing a pair of slender legs.
” Xingyuan, why are you looking at my legs?”
Except looking at her, he actually raised his hand to knead her delicate feet. Feng Zhiyao was surprised.
“There are still some bruises here.”
“How did you get hurt?”
A trace of pain flashed in his eyes.
“On the way to the temple that day, I accidentally sprained my foot.”
“It’s fine, it’s already much better.”
She lowered her eyes to her slender feet and couldn’t help but recall the scene of Li Mingcan kissing her.
“Yao’er, I will take good care of you in the future.”
Wen Xingyuan suddenly drew closer to her and hugged her in his arms.
“Yes.”
It’s fine. Anyway, she would eat him first.
Thus, she raised her eyes and smiled sweetly.
“Cough…”
“Get dressed quickly, don’t catch a cold. ”
Wen Xingyuan asked with great concern.
Alright, unromantic fellow, hmph.
Feng Zhiyao put on her cloth.
” Xingyuan, where are you taking me for outing?”
“The three great families are at the Qiu Lan Horse Ground in Li Mount. The scenery there is not bad. I presume you will like it and relax.”
Wen Xingyuan had said this for a reason, because he had heard that Feng Zhiyao was seriously ill, and that was why he mentioned Li Mountain.
“Well, but I don’t know how to ride!”
Feng Zhiyao leaned against his warm embrace, smiling like a spring breeze.
It was as if the seduction had never happened.
“It doesn’t matter. I can teach you.”
A faint smile appeared on Wen Xingyuan’s face. It was said that riding a horse could strengthen one’s body. He hoped that Yao’er would one day become his happy bride.
“Alright!”
Feng Zhiyao snuggled in Wen Xingyuan’s arms and fell asleep peacefully.
….
In the morning, when the weather was still fine. When the two of them finally got off the carriag, the sky was filled with the drizzling drizzle, which occasionally painted the earth, and the jungle terrain undulated up and down.
Finally, the rain stopped. The sun came out, and the rainbow shone brightly.
Wen Xingyuan pointed at the horse ranch that spanned hundreds of miles. “There are countless good horses here. You can go ahead and choose. Once you’ve chosen, I’ll teach you!”
Feng Zhiyao looked around. There were indeed a lot of horses, but she didn’t see any that she liked. Wen Xingyuan, who was beside her, said with a smile, “Such a way of picking is like picking a husband. If you see someone, don’t forget to ask about his family background.”
She glared at him. “Don’t you know that the horse must be congenial?”
Before she could finish her words, a herd of horses came galloping over from nearby. The first one galloped towards them from the green fields.
The horse slowly came to a stop, as if they were enjoying the gallop. Its bright eyes were filled with unruly arrogance as it looked in their direction.
They looked at each other. Feng Zhiyao’s eyes sparkled as she said, “It’s that one!”
Wen Xingyuan looked in the direction she pointed and smiled. “You know how to pick. But just forget it. No one dares to ride Han Bao.”
“Han Bao?”
Did she hear wrong?
She scratched her ear again.
“That’s right, it’s a fast horse that was raised by the Han Family of Da Wan. That’s why it’s called Han Bao!”
As Wen Xingyuan seeing her adorable actions, a trace of a doting smile flashed across his long and narrow eyes.
Oh, that’s it?
She thought that there was some speacial reason to regain the unparalleled name!
“But why doesn’t anyone dare to ride it!”
Her eyes rippled, her voice was sweet, and her every move was flirtatious.
“Ur …”
“The horse picked its master and hurt a lot of people, so it had to stay in the paddock. Don’t mess with it. ”
Wen Xingyuan’s face flushed red at her coquettish and flirtatious manner. He quickly averted his gaze and started to explain.
“But I like it!”
“I’m going to ride Han Bao!”
She wasn’t joking with him, she was serious.
“Well, well, I’ll be there to protect you.”
He could not resist her, so he nodded and smiled softly.
Unexpectedly, after Wen Xingyuan had lifted Feng Zhiyao onto the horse’s back, Han Bao seemed to be sentient, but actually didn’t even drop Feng Zhiyao.
“Yao’er, didn’t you say that your ride wasn’t good?”
“In my opinion, you are better than me. ”
Wen Xingyuan rode a white horse alongside Feng Zhiyao’s dark horse.
“Well, thank you so much for your kind words. Today may be the day I perform better than usual!”
Feng Zhiyao cutely stuck out her pink tongue at him. In a split-second, she became witty, making Wen Xingyuan like her more. In his heart, he had the determination to marry her.
” Xingyuan, how are you and Yao’er getting along?”
It was Situ Yelei. His white warrior’s clothing made his body look unrestrained. Even though he was galloping on a flying horse, he still looked elegant and graceful, like a bright moon crossing in a spring breeze.
He was surprised when he saw Feng Zhiyao.
Naturally, Xuanyuan Lingxi was with Situ Yelei.
“Brother Yelei, what did you call her just now?”
Xuanyuan Lingxi was dressed in a fiery red riding attire and was extremely attractive. However, her words were laced with slight anger. The meaning behind her words were more or less overbearing …
