1517 So Slender, So Soft
At this thought, a dim look flashed in her eyes.
While Lu Liangwei was accompanying the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess at the Grand Duke Mansion, Yaoyao and Ji’er were already on their way to West Water Frontier.
It was the first time they were traveling so far away and they were initially excited about it.
However, after a few days in the horse-drawn carriage, they began to get restless.
!!This was especially for Yaoyao.
She pulled open the blinds of the carriage and said listlessly to Chu Qi, who was riding a horse beside them, and said, “Big Bro Lil Qi, I don’t want to sit in the carriage anymore. Borrow me your horse to ride on.”
Chu Qi darted a look at her. “Do you know how to ride a horse?”
“Of course, I do.” Yaoyao immediately straightened up. “I’ve learned how to ride when I was twelve.” She looked quite proud of it.
Chu Qi looked at Ji’er with a questioning look in his eyes.
Ji’er nodded. “Her horse-riding is pretty okay.”
Yaoyao was a little unhappy when she heard that. “What do you mean ‘pretty okay’? I’m clearly better than you at it.”
Ji’er did not want to argue with her. To be honest, she was also a little restless after riding in the carriage for the last few days. She looked at Chu Qi expectantly.
Chu Qi gave this some thought and ordered a personal guard to bring a horse over.
When Yaoyao saw this, she ordered the coachman to stop and she jumped onto the horse directly from the carriage. She pulled on the reins and galloped forward.
Ji’er stood on the carriage shaft and watched her enviously.
It was right at that moment when Chu Qi rode his horse over and reached out his hand. “Get on the horse, Ji’er. You can ride with me.”
Ji’er was slightly surprised and she hesitated before saying, “I know how to ride a horse”
Chu Qi probably did not expect her to reject him and he was taken aback. He was about to pull his hand back when the girl’s soft hand quickly grabbed his.
“But, I don’t know the roads well and it would be more convenient for you to show me the way,” Ji’er said breezily.
A small smile appeared on Chu Qi’s lips as he pulled hard and got her onto the horse.
They had not had the chance to be alone for a few days, and now that they were suddenly so intimately near to each other, they felt a little shy.
This was especially for Ji’er. When Chu Qi’s strong arms circled her chest, her heart began to beat wildly and her face turned red.
Chu Qi pressed his lips and was silent for a while before he clenched his fingers and finally released them as he held her on her soft, slender waist.
Ji’er’s body trembled at this sudden touch. There was a strange feeling from where he touched her and she blushed instantly.
When Chu Qi saw that she did not object to it, his fingers held tighter onto her. He could feel that her waist was so slender, so soft, and it put him in a daze.
Ji’er looked nonchalant and stared straight ahead, but she did not notice that her delicate ears were so red that blood seemed to be dripping out of them.
Chu Qi stared at her cute, delicate ears for quite a while. A thought suddenly crossed his mind and his handsome face turned red as well.
He quickly brushed any indecent thoughts from his mind and galloped forward with her on the horse.
By the time they caught up with Yaoyao, Beitang You was already at her side. Yaoyao was crouching on the ground and her little face was white. Beads of sweat covered her forehead while she was surrounded by fearful-looking guards.
Ji’er’s face turned pale when she saw this. “Hurry forward, Lil Qi. Something must have happened to Yaoyao.”
An alarm went off in Chu Qi as he quickly rode forward with Ji’er.
When they got nearer to them, Chu Qi helped Ji’er off the horse.
Ji’er quickly went to Yaoyao. She was about to ask what had happened when Yaoyao quickly shouted while looking quite pitiful, “Ji’er, I sprained my leg, it hurts so much”
The expression on Ji’er’s face changed and she quickly crouched down next to Yaoyao. She took a quick look at Yaoyao and saw that only her leg was sprained and nowhere else was hurt. She felt a sense of relief, before frowning and asked, “What exactly happened?”
“I fell off the horse” Yaoyao was in so much pain that tears began forming in her eyes as she mumbled.
“Don’t you know Light Body Skill? How did you fall off?” Ji’er was anxious and angry.
“I accidentally sprained myself when I fell off.” Yaoyao hugged her left ankle as she kept breathing in from the pain.
When Ji’er saw this, she quickly said to Chu Qi, “Lil Qi, please carry Yaoyao into the carriage.”
Chu Qi frowned and went forward to help Yaoyao by the arm. “Can you walk?”
