Chapter 5

Jinye had put on makeup today.

Her fair little face was delicate, with a hint of pink. Her eyelashes were curled, making her black eyes sparkle even more.

Her lips were moist and shimmered with a soft glow, like cherries on a branch in the morning, still covered in dew, inviting you to pick them.

Wei Liangchen’s deep eyes darkened.

Zhou Siwei was talking to her. “Miss Xu, do you know how to ride a horse?”

“A little, I’m not very good at it.”

“She’s lying, she’s very good at it.” Wei Jiaqi said mercilessly.

Zhou Siwei smiled slightly. “Then shall we have a race?”

Jinye said, “I’ll go change clothes first.”

Wei Jiaqi was unlucky. Before they left, she found out she had her period, so she could only sit there and chat with Zhou Siwei’s sister and Ning Xiujun’s cousin under the awning. There were fresh fruits, coffee, and cakes on the picnic table.

When Jinye came out after changing into her riding clothes, Wei Liangchen and Ning Xiujun had already ridden back from a round.

Everyone looked at Jinye.

The English riding outfit accentuated her slender figure, white riding pants hugging her curvy hips, long, well-proportioned legs, a blue waistcoat with a cinched waist over a white shirt, her waist was small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.

Wei Liangchen was familiar with that feel, soft and delicate.

His eyes were dark and gloomy, he jumped off the horse. “Why didn’t you wear a helmet, then don’t—”

“I did.” Jinye took the helmet out of the leather case next to her and put it on.

She looked elegant and spirited, her beautiful eyes sparkling like autumn water. “Can I go ride now?”

Wei Liangchen gritted his teeth and smiled. “Go ahead. Entertain Mr. Zhou well.”

Jinye gritted her teeth too, seeing his expression, it seemed like he really wasn’t going to care about her.

Zhou Siwei also came out in riding clothes, also white pants, white shirt, blue waistcoat, at first glance, it looked like a couple’s outfit.

Fortunately, judging from the first impression, this guy seemed nice.

He was good-looking, his demeanor was neither hurried nor slow, he had a kind of relaxing charm.

Jinye smiled, about to mount the horse, a cold voice came from beside her. “That saddle is no good, change horses.”

Wei Liangchen’s eyes were dark and unclear, he patted one of the horses he had brought, raising his chin.

Anyone with eyes could see that not only was the saddle good, but the horse was also good.

“Young Master Wei is so good to his little sister, I heard she’s not your real sister.” Ning Xiujun had also heard about the Wei family’s burden.

Wei Liangchen was too dazzling, her attention was always on him.

A woman’s intuition told her that something was off about these two siblings, and she couldn’t help but feel a little hostile towards Jinye.

Wei Liangchen smiled. “She’s not my real sister, but she’s still my sister, and sisters are meant to be spoiled, right, little sister Jinye?”

His black eyes stared at Jinye, with a dark light flickering in them. Jinye’s heart skipped a beat, but she was very obedient on the surface. “Second Brother is indeed a good person, a good brother.”

I don’t know what about that touched him, but he burst into laughter, holding her waist. “Come on, good brother will help you mount.”

Jinye glared at him, just about to say she didn’t need help, but his hands had already exerted force, her body was lifted into the air, she didn’t have time to think, she could only step on the stirrup and jump onto the horse’s back.

The movement was smooth and effortless, Zhou Siwei’s sister couldn’t help but say, “That’s beautiful!”

Others might not have noticed, but Jinye knew that when Wei Liangchen exerted force, he squeezed her waist.

It was incredibly suggestive.

She was really afraid he would suddenly go crazy, so she quickly galloped away on her horse.

Zhou Siwei caught up with her. “You ride very well.”

Jinye wasn’t shy with her praise either. “Mr. Zhou, that’s what I call riding, spirited and energetic, you must have been practicing for many years.”

“My father forced me to ride when I was young.”

“No wonder.”

It was called a horse race, but it was actually just a slow trot, nothing serious. Zhou Siwei was very considerate of her, asking her if she was tired along the way.

This guy seems pretty good.

Jinye thought again.

Back at the resting shed, Wei Liangchen was sitting with his legs spread, leaning back in his chair, in a casual, dissolute posture. Ning Xiujun didn’t mind, the two of them were chatting and laughing, Wei Liangchen didn’t know what he was saying, but he would occasionally make Ning laugh.

That mouth of his, if he wanted to, he could even coax the birds out of the sky.

Jinye got off the horse and came back to drink water, he didn’t even see her.

Did he really not care about her?

Jinye gulped down her water, making a loud “glug glug” sound. Wei Liangchen’s ears twitched, he turned his head, but she had already walked away.

“This kind of casual horse riding isn’t exciting, it’s boring.” Ning Xiujun said. “Why don’t we draw lots, the two people who draw together will be a team, Yang Xin and Zhou Siyu will join in too.” Yang Xin was her cousin’s name.

“Okay.” Wei Liangchen had a nonchalant attitude.

Zhou Siwei and his sister had no objections.

Jinye naturally couldn’t have any objections either.

Wei Jiaqi was bored, so she joined in. “I’ll be the judge.”

Fate had it that Jinye drew the same team as Wei Liangchen.

“Go all out, don’t hold me back, little sister.” Wei Liangchen narrowed his eyes and smiled, the small mole at the corner of his eye was bright, wild, and unrestrained in the sunlight.

Jinye’s riding skills were taught by him, and she thought she was pretty good. Young people are always competitive. “Second Brother, don’t underestimate me, Mr. Zhou’s riding skills are no worse than yours.”

Wei Liangchen’s smile widened, but his eyes were dark. “We’ll see.”

To increase the difficulty, Ning Xiujun had people set up obstacles, it was a real test of riding skills. The team of Yang Xin and Zhou Siyu were just there to accompany them, and they were soon left behind.

Only two teams remained on the field.

Ning Xiujun thought Jinye was just a delicate woman, while she had followed her father to the battlefield since she was young, and she initially looked down on her. But she didn’t fall behind by much.

Actually, Jinye could have gone faster, but she suddenly didn’t want to steal the spotlight.

Especially since she felt like Ning Xiujun had a strange hostility towards her.

A woman’s intuition shouldn’t be underestimated.

Ning Xiujun made a beautiful jump over the fence, Zhou Siwei followed closely behind, finally pulling slightly ahead of Jinye and Liangchen in the back.

“You’re holding me back.” Wei Liangchen shouted.

Before Jinye could retort, his horse suddenly came closer, his long arm stretched out, and he actually lifted her off the horse’s back. The horse was still going fast, Jinye was terrified. “What are you doing?”

“What do you think?” Wei Liangchen grinned like a mischievous child who had gotten his way. “Let you experience the charm of your good brother on horseback.”

He was getting addicted to saying “good brother.”

But it has to be said that this guy’s riding skills were really good, and he was also crazy enough. He held her waist tightly with one hand, and with the other, he could still ride like the wind.

He quickly overtook the slightly leading team.

Zhou Siwei and Ning Xiujun were dumbfounded: How is that even possible?!

Was that considered a foul?

The horse was going too fast, Jinye didn’t dare move, the heat from his hand made her stiff, her back was also hot and sweaty. But it was also a different kind of thrilling excitement.

“How is it, fun?” Wei Liangchen said in her ear.

He nibbled on her ear.

Jinye shuddered.

“So sensitive.” He seemed very satisfied with her reaction, and he nibbled again.

Jinye was scared to death. “They’ll catch up.” If they saw, she would be finished.

“What are you afraid of.” The voice in her ear was a little hoarse, he became even more audacious, rubbing her waist. “Didn’t eat properly? Why are you still so thin?” Sometimes, he worried about whether she would break.

Jinye was ticklish, she pressed his hand down. “If you keep messing around, I’m going to jump off.”

Fortunately, she was in front of him, enveloped by his tall body, otherwise it would definitely raise suspicion.

“Stay at the villa on the mountain with me tonight.” He whispered in her ear.
