Chapter 50 part 4

Xia Shutong avoided the camera, biting her lip slightly. When she raised her head again, her expression had returned to calmness.

She grasped Yun Feiwu’s hand, using it as support to mount the horse.

Only after actually sitting on the horse’s back did Xia Shutong realize that the feeling was completely different from watching from the ground. The horseback was high and swayed unsteadily, as if it could fall at any moment, making Xia Shutong feel insecure.

But in the next moment, Yun Feiwu leaped up and embraced Xia Shutong from behind.

Xia Shutong leaned back, resting against Yun Feiwu.

She was completely enveloped by her refreshing scent.

In an instant, she felt less anxious.

Not only her body, but her whole heart stabilized.

Yun Feiwu leaned forward and whispered, “Little Xia, should we pick up the pace?”

“Yes.”

As soon as the words fell, Yun Feiwu’s action of pulling the reins became stronger, and the black horse suddenly galloped forward like an arrow into the boundless grassland.

“Ah…!”

Although prepared, Xia Shutong couldn’t help but let out a startled cry when the acceleration happened in an instant.

Immediately, she leaned closer into Yun Feiwu’s embrace.

Her back trembled uncontrollably.

She heard Yun Feiwu’s laughter mixed with indulgence, and the black horse’s speed slowed down accordingly.

Besides them, Jiang Feng, who clearly didn’t know how to ride a horse, nestled comfortably in Xie Ao’s arms and excitedly shouted, ”Faster, even faster!”

Xie Ao indeed picked up the pace, leaving Xia Shutong and the others behind in the dust. Even when they were far away, the sound of Jiang Feng’s cheers could still be heard.

Cough… Xia Shutong uncomfortably looked away, quickly finding an excuse for herself, ”Those kids just love seeking thrills.”

“Mhmm~ Right~” Yun Feiwu dragged out her voice, clearly teasing, but her body leaned gently forward, protecting Xia Shutong in her embrace.

They were quickly left far behind by the others.

If they ignore the cameraman driving behind, on the boundless prairie, it seemed as if there were only the two of them left.

The sky was clear, and a gentle breeze blew.

Xia Shutong suddenly felt her heart soften.

Unconsciously, she hummed a soft and melodious tune from the Jiangnan region.

If she remembered correctly, this song was often hummed by her mother, Wang Xiao Ning, when Xia Shutong couldn’t sleep as a child.

After hearing it many times, she eventually learned it.

After Xia Shutong hummed a few verses, just as she was about to stop, Yun Feiwu followed her melody and softly started singing too.

Yun Feiwu’s voice was clear and ethereal, giving a completely different feeling from Xia Shutong’s hum.

But it harmonized exceptionally well.

…

In just five or six minutes, the group crossed a small hill in front of them and arrived at the “beautiful lake” spoken of by the herdsmen.

At the foot of the mountain, a small azure lake was hidden among the fragrant grass, as if a mirror had been placed in the grassland, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.

Sparse water grass swayed with the wind by the lake, and gray ducks could be seen swimming on the surface, creating gentle ripples.

It was a breathtaking sight.

The group didn’t dismount but rode their horses around the lake a few times. As it was almost lunchtime, they returned to the other side of the prairie.

Due to their grazing routines of leaving early and returning late, the herdsmen in this area didn’t have lunch. Ouyang Chao and Zhou Hanchi hadn’t come back, so only Xia Shutong and the other three had their lunch together.”

While having dinner, they heard the sound of horse hooves coming from outside.

Yesterday, the uncle from the epidemic prevention station, who helped with shearing the sheep, came in with a basket of gifts.

“Little Sister, it’s rare for us to meet, so I brought some specialties from the grasslands.” The uncle smiled and distributed a basket of specialties to everyone. Then, his attention immediately turned to Xie Ao, and he asked with concern, “Little Sister, I heard that your previous episode of the show was filmed at in seaside. Were you scared?”

“A little…” Xie Ao nodded.

The uncle patted the table and suddenly reached out his hand as if he wanted to affectionately rub Xie Ao’s head. However, midway through, he retracted his hand.

Xie Ao subtly shifted away without showing any change in expression.

“Cough, cough… In the past, we who conducted experiments were quite concerned about you. Now that everyone has graduated, it’s not easy for us to meet. They entrusted me to care for you,” the uncle said.

The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat strange.

This uncle, his relationship with Xie Ao was obviously unusual.

Xia Shutong silently furrowed her brows, and Yun Feiwu’s hand reached under the table, gripping hers. The two exchanged a silent glance and quickly averted their gaze.

Just as Xia Shutong was about to say something to break the awkward atmosphere, Jiang Feng suddenly patted Xie Ao’s head playfully and cleverly said, “Oh, why is Senior Brother talking so much? Just say it directly. Do you have feelings for our Xie Ao? Don’t worry, I’ll help you pursue her!”

Everyone could support me in Kofi, for every coffee an extra chapter would be released. Please don’t forget to mention the name of the novel you want to support, so that I won’t confuse it with the other novel I’m currently translating.
