Chapter 98: Wrapped in His Arms

For example, the coach told Lin Xiaowan that she could gently squeeze the horse’s sides to increase its speed, and he also taught her how to change the direction of the horse using the reins.

Huo Zheng rode on the horse alone and leisurely followed next to them. His face was expressionless, and his eyes were fixed on them, looking just like a bodyguard.

Lin Xiaowan’s riding speed was basically the same as someone walking briskly. She gradually learned some skills as she sat on the horse’s back. She was a little unsatisfied and wanted to go faster, but she did not dare to leave the equestrian coach’s side.

Let alone her, even the equestrian coach did not dare to leave her side. After all, falling off a horse was not a trivial matter.

Lin Xiaowan watched as Huo Zheng leisurely rode his horse to the side and let it graze the field. An idea appeared in her mind, and she leaned forward slightly and asked the coach, “Can two people ride on a horse?”

The equestrian coach did not know why Lin Xiaowan asked this. He only hesitated for a moment before she replied, “Yes.”

In fact, this depended on the rules of the equestrian club. There were many people who did not know how to ride but wanted to experience the feeling of galloping on the horse. For this reason, a coach would ride with them.

“Then, can 1 ride with another person? I see there’s a huge track over there. Can we go there?” Lin Xiaowan asked again. She loosened her grip on the reins and pointed in a certain direction before she quickly held the reins tightly again.

The equestrian coach looked in the direction she pointed before he nodded. He thought to himself, ‘This young woman is quite bold. That place is a free racing track, and it’s very vast…’

The equestrian coach said, “If you feel comfortable now, I can take you there now.”

“How do two people ride on a horse? Is it similar to how people ride on horses in dramas?” Lin Xiaowan asked.

“Yes, it’s similar,” the equestrian coach said with a smile. He sounded a little proud as he continued to say, “I have a master, and he’s very good at horseback riding. He used to teach celebrities how to ride.”

“That’s amazing,” Lin Xiaowan said before she asked, “Can I ride with my boyfriend? 1 want to ride with him.”

The equestrian coach looked a little troubled when he heard this. The equestrian club had just opened for business, but he knew the people who came here were all extraordinary; they were either noble or wealthy. It would be bad if something happened.

In the end, the equestrian coach expressed Lin Xiaowan’s wish to Huo Zheng and Qiao You’an, asking for their opinions. If they decided that they did not his assistance, they would have to sign an agreement.

Since Lin Xiaowan had to wait for a while, she wanted to get off the horse first. She handed the reins to Huo Zheng.

Huo Zheng patted her and got her to move forward a little. Then, he pulled on the reins before he flipped over neatly onto the horse.

When the horse felt the extra weight, it raised its head and neighed, giving Lin Xiaowan a fright.

After getting onto the horseback, Huo Zheng pulled Lin Xiaowan into his embrace. Seeing how nervous she was, he grinned before he spurred the horse on. After a while, he mischievously pulled on the reins to make the horse raise its front hooves.

Lin Xiaowan hugged him and exclaimed softly.

Upon seeing this, Qiao You’an, who was watching, said anxiously, “Watch out! Don’t hurt Xiaowan!”

Huo Zheng did not say anything, but the smile on his face became even more obvious. He lowered his head and gently kissed Lin Xiaowan’s cheek, trying to comfort her.

Qiao You’an rolled her eyes. At the same time, she felt slightly relieved as well. Huo Zheng did not avoid public displays of affection now, which was similar to his past self who was carefree and relaxed.

By the time the coach returned with the agreement, the couple was nowhere to be seen in the enclosed track. He was naturally anxious.

The couple could not wait any longer. Lin Xiaowan egged Huo Zheng a little, and Huo Zheng spurred the horse on, galloping away.

In the end, Qiao You’an could only sigh and sign the agreement on Huo Zheng’s behalf.

Meanwhile, Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao were riding happily when Huo Erbao decided to get some water because he was thirsty. It was at this time that he saw the couple riding a horse on the field. Filled with excitement, he called out to his elder brother, “Brother, Little Aunt is riding over there!”

When Huo Zheng was present, the two children would obediently address Lin Xiaowan as ‘Little Aunt’. When Huo Zheng was not present, they would address her as ‘Sister Xiaowan’. It could be said that they were quite skilled at ‘obeying in the open and opposing in the dark’.

The equestrian club occupied a huge piece of land. It was located in a remote suburb. Apart from Beichen Park, which was crowded during the weekend, it was relatively quiet here. For this reason, the equestrian club provided a good run for the horses even if it was not comparable to the real grassland.

After Huo Erbao called out to Huo Dabao, Huo Dabao looked over and immediately saw the couple. He said excitedly, “1 want to go there too!”

The nanny heard this and tried to dissuade them. “You’re both still young. If you ride like them, your little butts will hurt for a few days.”

The two children really wanted to gallop on the horse like Huo Zheng and Lin Xiaowan. In the past, they were led around on the horses by their equestrian coach, and later on, they were allowed to ride without being led around. However, they had never ridden freely in such a manner. It was because they had never tried it before that they were eager to try it now.

In the end, the nanny had no choice but to call Qiao You’an over.

When Qiao You’an heard that her two sons wanted to ride on the open track, she was going to object initially. However, after thinking about it, she hesitated. The two children wanted to do this because they had never tried it before. Even if she told them it was not suitable for them to do so, they would not believe her. After all, they had both taken riding lessons and could ride horses; they would definitely question why they could not ride the horses in the open track. In conclusion, it would be very difficult to dissuade them.

Seeing that Qiao You’an was wavering, Huo Dabao seized the opportunity and said pleadingly, “Mom, please! It’ll be okay!”

Qiao You’an looked at the equestrian coach standing at the side and asked, “Is it safe for children their age to ride there?”

Although there were no rules prohibiting that, the equestrian coach was a little hesitant. “We don’t have the experience of riding horses like that with children. Moreover, due to their age, even if we bring them along to gallop on the horses, we won’t dare to go too fast.”

Huo Dabao tried to compromise, saying in a childish voice, “What about doing just one lap around the track?”

In the end, Qiao You’an gave in to the mo children.

The equestrian coaches chose new horses and brought the children with them to the open track.

Before getting on the horse, the two children kissed their mother loudly. “Mom, aren’t you coming to play with us?” Huo Dabao asked.

Qiao You’an knew how to ride horses. In the past, when Huo Dabao and Huo Erbao had riding lessons, she would go for a ride as well..
