Chapter 1410 - Tame White Horse
Chapter 1410: Tame White Horse
Soon, the two girls had an idea. No matter what, they had to make an appointment with Du Zheng to make it clear.
The appointment was not difficult. After all, the Li and Du families were friends. However, in order not to make Du Zheng suspicious, Xia Yingluo did not ask him out directly. Instead, she asked his elder brother Li Shaohui to ask Du Zheng out to the Nanshan Horse Racing Club. Who asked Li Shaohuis relationship with Du Zheng to be the best? And they both liked riding horses and would go for a few laps from time to time, so it would be seamless asking him out.
On the day itself, cicadas chirped in the summer, and the first lotus bloomed.
Together with Jin Linger, Xia Yingluo walked towards Li Shaohui and Du Zheng with a smile and called obediently. Brother Du Zheng.
Today, Du Zheng wore a decent riding outfit, which made his already erect figure even more sturdy. However, his expression was still serious. His gaze swept across Jin Linger and Xia Yingluo, then he glanced at Li Shaohui. These are the friends you were talking about?
Li Shaohui laughed harmlessly. Ah, there were other friends, but my sister said it was too noisy and eliminated them.
Du Zheng:
He was not stupid and could see that Li Shaohui was lying with his eyes open. The situation in front of him showed that he had been accounted for and the siblings had already planned it. They wanted to bring him and Jin Linger together. He looked down at the girl who was walking towards them a few steps away. The girl with short, rusty golden hair looked a little uneasy at this time, her eyes flickering about, afraid of meeting his gaze. His heart ached a little at her apprehensive appearance.
She lowered her head and stood beside Xia Yingluo, twisting her fingers anxiously.
However, Xia Yingluo pushed her with a smile. Linger, havent you always said that you wanted to learn to ride horses? I have found a master for you! Brother Du Zheng has ridden horses since he was a kid, itll be the best to let him teach you. She turned to look at Du Zheng again. Isnt that right, Du Zheng? Dont disappoint my bragging, I boasted of you in front of Linger!
Du Zheng glanced at her coldly. He could tell with his toes that this idea was this little girls.
Xia Yingluo was not afraid of him, unknowingly held up her brothers hand, and said with a smile, Lets go pick a horse.
They bounced forward.
Looking at the two of them, Jin Linger felt even more embarrassed. Although she had vowed to pursue Du Zheng when she was at home, she was at a loss now that he was in front of her. She didnt speak, and Du Zheng didnt speak either. He just stood by and looked at her.
Jin Linger managed to summon up her courage. Lets go, lets go pick a horse.
Du Zheng said, Ms. Jin
Lets go! Yingluo is already gone! Jin Linger was afraid that he would say something bad and quickly interrupted him. She rushed to the place where Xia Yingluo and Li Shaohui headed.
Du Zheng looked at her back with his eyes dim. Finally, he said nothing and followed silently.
The place to pick the horses was on the mountainside.
There were two rows of stables with some good breeds of horses for short-term use by members.
When Jin Linger and Du Zheng arrived, Xia Yingluo had already picked a whole-body snow-white mare. The mares eyes were docile and standing beside Xia Yingluo, they complemented each other like a moving landscape.
Jin Lingers eyes lit up. Wow, its so pretty.
Xia Yingluo smiled proudly. Pretty, right? The horse I picked is of course beautiful. However, since I have already selected it, you can only choose another one. Brother Du Zheng, let Linger give the task of picking a horse to you. She came here for the first time and doesnt understand anything, so you should pick her a good one. Her face was radiant.
Du Zheng gave her a cold look again. Cant you pick for your friend?
As soon as this sentence came out, there was an imperceptible look of hurt on Jin Lingers face.
Xia Yingluo was not fooled by him and smiled. I walked a long way and spent a lot of energy picking my horse, so Im exhausted. I want to go over there and drink some plum juice. She stretched out her fingers and pointed at a small gazebo a few steps away. Come and find me after youve picked.
She took her brother away with a smile.
Du Zhengs expression was even colder. This brother and sister! They were the same!
In the summer sun, Jin Linger bit her lip and said, Theres no need to trouble yourself, Mr. Du. I will pick the horse myself. She was also human and had her self-esteem. It would be ridiculous if she didnt notice how reluctant he looked.
Thinking of it this way, her eyes reddened, and she reached a hand into her pocket to hold the hairpin that Xia Yingluo had given her unconsciously.
That time on the set, she was framed by a female star and accidentally hit him. Her hair caught on his shirt button, and it took a long time to be untied. In the end, her hairpin was broken. With last times incident and this times happening, would he see her as a scheming woman, wanting to marry into a wealthy family at all costs?
Jin Linger suddenly regretted it. Maybe she shouldnt have been so reckless to ask him out.
She lowered her head and hurriedly walked into the stable. She didnt want him to see her depressed look. She pointed her finger at a horse that didnt look very tall and said to the staff on the side, I want this horse.
The staff responded and reached out to help her ride the horse.
Wait. He was stopped by Du Zheng.
Jin Linger looked back at him.
There was still no expression on Du Zhengs face. This horse has a strong temper. Change it. He had better eyes at picking horses than Jin Linger, so he could tell the nature of the horse at one glance. Beginners wouldnt be able to control it at all.
Jin Linger gave him a complex look and stopped talking.
He took her around the stables, and the more he walked, the worse his expression got. Finally, he asked the staff on the side, You dont have any meek horses here?
Seeing his face covered with dark clouds, the staffs heart palpitated and he carefully answered, How could we not? A club like ours would definitely prepare horses for riders of all levels. Unfortunately, today, a large number of horses were pulled for medical examinations If you want a gentle one, the most docile one is the one Ms. Xia just picked, Snowy Jade.
He didnt know what happened, but someone came to pull all the tame horses early in the morning. Only the big white horse was left, and they said that it was booked by Ms. Xia Yingluo already. He also told him that if someone asked for a gentle horse, he should answer like that.
Du Zheng snorted softly.
Jin Linger watched him uneasily. I, I can ride other horses, Ill just be careful
You dont have to do that to look for death. Looking at her careful eyes, his irritability grew even worse. You have no training at all, what can you ride?
