Chapter 316: Chapter 316 Jing Er, You Can Do It_1

An Jing was somewhat shocked. This spirit, this temperament—it truly befitted a horse that had been on the battlefield.

As soon as Xiao Changyi stepped off the ox cart, his hand caressed Zhuri’s head, and immediately, Zhuri became docile, even closing his eyes in enjoyment, behaving incredibly well.

An Jing also wanted to touch the horse, so she too got off the ox cart, but as soon as her hand reached towards Zhuri, the horse immediately opened its eyes, alert and full of fierceness, snorting heavily as if to say, ’If you dare touch me, I’ll trample you to death,’ displaying an imposing demeanor.

An Jing: ”...”

”Zhuri!” Xiao Changyi frowned and sharply reprimanded.

Zhuri then became docile again.

Making An Jing wonder if she had been seeing things just a moment ago.

”Jing Er, you can touch him now,” Xiao Changyi said.

An Jing hesitated, but in the end, she reached out again and touched Zhuri’s face.

Zhuri just glanced at her and showed no other reaction.

Only then did An Jing let her guard down. She really had been somewhat afraid that the horse might suddenly go mad and kick her.

”This horse...” An Jing looked at the horse’s coat and whispered to Xiao Changyi, ”It somewhat resembles the sweat-blood steeds from my world.”

Seeing Meng Zhuqing riding swiftly towards them, An Jing stopped there, not saying anything further.

”Milord, Madam!” Meng Zhuqing dismounted in one smooth motion, then saluted with a fist, bowed his head, lowered his gaze, and knelt on one knee to greet An Jing and Xiao Changyi.

Xiao Changyi, still petting the horse and without even glancing at him, said, ”Have your brother come see me tomorrow.”

”Yes!”

”Take the ox cart back for me.” After saying this, Xiao Changyi mounted the horse and then extended his hand towards An Jing.

An Jing was so stunned by her husband’s smooth mounting that she was dazed for several seconds before smiling and placing her hand in Xiao Changyi’s.

Xiao Changyi immediately pulled her up onto the horse, letting her sit in front of him. Once she was settled, he spurred the horse, and Zhuri obediently moved forward.

The horse was truly tall, and once An Jing was on it, the view was instantly different. The expansive vista not only improved her mood but also excited her greatly.

As the horse walked, if she had been riding alone, the bouncing motion would have made her feel extremely insecure, constantly worried about falling off at any moment.

But in that moment, she wasn’t worried at all and felt very secure. Behind her was her husband—she was practically in his arms. Her husband would definitely not let anything happen to her.

”Husband, this horse is really obedient,” An Jing said with a laugh.

”What’s mine is yours.”

An Jing was initially startled, then she laughed, extremely happy and sweet: ”Yes, what’s yours is mine, so your horse is naturally my horse.”

Xiao Changyi actually nodded: ”Mhm.”

An Jing was even happier. Seeing that the road was empty, she turned to look back at Changyi, who understood immediately. After a quick kiss, An Jing turned back to face forward.

After Zhuri walked a little further, An Jing felt that its pace was too slow and said to Xiao Changyi, ”Husband, can you make Zhuri go faster?”

Xiao Changyi didn’t answer but instead asked, ”Have you gotten used to it?”

An Jing was taken aback for a moment, then realized that he was being considerate of her. Deeply touched, she immediately nodded: ”Yes, I’ve gotten used to it. Have Zhuri run; that’s what Riding a Horse is all about.”

Only then did Xiao Changyi call out, ”Zhuri!”

Upon hearing its master’s call, Zhuri immediately whinnied and started running.

The speed was lightning fast.
