Chapter 20: Don’t be afraid (3)
She looked up at him cautiously, but she saw Guan Lin looking at her with emotions that she could not understand.
“Very well.” Guan Lin granted the leave.
Lisa was relieved. She gave her boss a bow and then left in a haste. Guan Lin looked at her slender back and let out a sigh in his mind.
It used to be a family affair, but now it’s a husband affair, and married women have a lot of things to do. It was saddening to think of this female student carrying the burden of her family at such a young age.
Lisa stood at the side of the horse pasture, feeling the pressure of a burden no less than that of a family. She was wearing an equestrian attire, with a large horse standing right in front of her. She felt that the horse would kick her off with a violent kick at any moment, and the thought made Lisa break into a cold sweat.
Even if she came with the two siblings to the horse pasture, Lisa didn’t have any thoughts of getting on the horse. She stood just outside the horse track and watched as Jungkook and Somi rode.
The two siblings sat on their horses, very eye-catching. Both of them inherited their mother’s temperament and, although the Miao family was no match for the four major clans in Xiao City, they were not inferior at all. It was said that their ancestors were royalty. Therefore, the people of the Miao family had an aura of nobility in their temperament. Just looking at them this way, the two siblings were indeed like a prince and princess on horseback.
Jungkook wore an equestrian attire as well. With his long legs and the deep and handsome contours of his facial features, the clothes rose his gentleness to a slightly more imposing level. This kind of picture could be used as a publicity poster for the racecourse.
“The horse is very gentle, you touch it first.” The horse trainer next to Lisa was still doing lobbying work. The woman next to her came with her boss. She didn’t dare to neglect her. “You come all here, it will be a good experience.”
“You come all here.” These four words, no matter where, they could play a strong persuasive role. Lisa was excited by the sight of the two of them riding, but in the end, she was finally persuaded.
Even so, she looked at the big horse beside her and flinched. She followed the trainer’s words and moved up a little less sharply on her hands and feet. After being helped onto the horse’s back, Lisa glanced down and instantly paled, regretting it a bit.
She was flustered, then she leaned down and gripped the reins tightly. She directed her full attention to the horse, confirming again and again.
“It’s not going to kick me, is it? It’s not going to run out of anywhere, is it? It… Or I’ll just go down!”
When she confirmed it, the trainer looked behind her and smiled helplessly. Lisa was just about to turn back when the reins in her hand were pulled over. At the same time, someone jumped over onto her horse, and the horse moved in time with the man’s movements.
This small movement scared Lisa out of her mind. She let out an “oops” and leaned forward to hold the horse’s head, but her waist was held by a strong hand, pulling her body back slightly.
Lisa’s body was like a fallen leaf. All at once, she was pulled into the man’s arms. Lisa leaned back against a broad chest and, startled, she smelled a familiar, refreshing aroma of fruitwood.
“Don’t be afraid.” Jungkook held her body in place and whispered a soothing word in her ear.
After being held by Jungkook, Lisa surprisingly forgot to be afraid.
Seeing that she was emotionally stable, Jungkook let go of his hand and held her hand to get the reins. As soon as the hand had left, it was pressed back into her waist by her.
When Jungkook made a move, he lowered his head and tried to speak, only to find that the woman in his arms was still trembling softly. She pressed against his hand holding hers, and her voice was also a little shaky as she whispered, “You… You hold on well, or I’ll fall and die and you won’t have a wife anymore.”
Lisa was so nervous that her voice was a little tense. When she finished speaking and realized what she said, she quickly let go of his hand. The moment she let go, her body was held tightly again.
At the same time, a man’s laughter rang in her ears. “Good.”
Lisa’s heart moved.
