Seeing Ye Qiu treating her differently from Cao Ling, appearing a bit indifferent, Lin Xiang felt a bit unhappy. After all, she was one of the young beauties among the Malaysian Chinese, with plenty of wealthy and talented suitors, yet she was particularly interested in Ye Qiu.

"Forget it if you don’t want to teach," Lin Xiang said angrily.

"Teach, why not teach?"

Hearing Ye Qiu say that, Lin Xiang felt a bit better.

Ye Qiu went over, held her waist in the same way, and taught her how to throw the bowling ball to knock down all ten pins.

In the close contact, Lin Xiang felt her heart pounding rapidly; she knew this feeling was indeed different.

If it were someone she wasn’t interested in, how could she feel this way?

After teaching Lin Xiang several times, seeing her sweat glistening, Ye Qiu knew it was about time to stop and find a place to sit down for a drink.

"Where can we get a drink around here?"

"Dr. Ye, there is one."

Cao Long and Master Zhou led Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu to a place in the villa where they could drink—it offered both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options.

Sitting down there, enjoying the air conditioning and drinks, was really quite comfortable.

Ye Qiu had just washed his hands clean.

However, bowling wasn’t much to him, it didn’t pose any challenge; he didn’t want to play anymore, finding it quite meaningless.

Seeing the time, it was already after four o’clock in the afternoon.

After a few drinks, Ye Qiu was preparing to go outside and take a look.

When he and Cao Long went outside, they saw those tall Mongolian horses, meant for riding.

"Dr. Ye, want to go horse riding?"

Seeing that Ye Qiu was from Jinling, they thought he probably hadn’t ridden horses before, coming from the Jiangnan water towns, and cars were so common now that not many people rode horses anymore.

"Yes, ride."

Ye Qiu had his own horses at the Eastern Castle in France, not many, but he did, and Liu Lingxiu had ridden with him before.

Liu Lingxiu knew this too.

However, seeing the sturdy horses here,

Ye Qiu led over a fiery-red stallion and jumped right onto it.

Since Ye Qiu understood horse language, this horse surely listened to him well.

"Lingshow, come up."

Ye Qiu pulled Liu Lingxiu up, letting her sit in front of his chest, so she wouldn’t be afraid.

Ye Qiu held the reins, raised the riding whip, and shouted, "Giddy up!"

The fiery-red stallion galloped forward.

The horse ran at such a speed that Liu Lingxiu almost didn’t dare open her eyes, and the bouncing made her a bit uncomfortable.

If it wasn’t for the saddle, it might have been even less comfortable.

Lin Xiang and the other two women, along with Cao Long, noticed Ye Qiu’s impressive horse riding skills, seeing him seemingly fly off into the distance in the blink of an eye.

They dared to ride, sure, but they didn’t dare ride that fast; if they suddenly fell off the horse, it might result in serious injury or worse.

Every year in horse racing, accidents like being trampled or crushed by one’s horse happen.

But just then, Ye Qiu was amazing!

After riding a big circle back, Liu Lingxiu’s face was flushed; she was really excited, especially since Ye Qiu had just kissed her on the horse.

When Ye Qiu stopped and got off, then helped Liu Lingxiu off, she almost felt weak all over, unable to stand steady.

The bouncing and exhilaration were too much for her.

When Xiaomai supported Liu Lingxiu, Ye Qiu looked at Cao Ling and Lin Xiang.

Cao Ling had never ridden before, and she was a bit scared.

Now, if Ye Qiu rode with her on one horse, there would be no problem.

Once Ye Qiu jumped up, Cao Ling was already leaning against him.

It was clear to anyone now that this stunning beauty and Ye Qiu had a relationship far from ordinary.

Even Master Zhou and Master Li could hardly believe that Cao Ling, the granddaughter of a Jinling Military Region chief, would take a liking to Ye Qiu.

It seemed Ye Qiu was indeed not so simple.

"Hey, why are you holding me like this?"

Cao Ling grew up in the military, and her entire family was connected to it, so she was braver than Liu Lingxiu and the others.

She didn’t expect that now Ye Qiu was holding her so tight, and as she heard the wind whistling by, this horse was running quite fast, seemingly crossing from south to north in the blink of an eye.

"Afraid you’ll fall off."

Ye Qiu whispered in Cao Ling’s ear.

"I’m not afraid."

"Then I’ll let go."

Ye Qiu said, then deliberately let go, and Cao Ling, not expecting him to be serious, suddenly felt like she might fall and turned pale with fright, as Ye Qiu quickly held her and asked, "Now, you see how serious it is!"

"You, you did that on purpose; you scared me to death."

Cao Ling’s exquisite face did indeed turn pale from the scare, taking a long time to compose herself. When Ye Qiu reached the edge, and then went into the small forest, Cao Ling’s heart was still racing, resting weakly in Ye Qiu’s arms.

Ye Qiu suddenly kissed her cherry lips, and Cao Ling was caught off guard at first, realizing that her first kiss was taken by Ye Qiu, and this rascal even used a French kiss that made her feel like she might fly. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Worried others might see, Cao Ling was relieved only upon seeing no one else around, and said, "You’re a rascal taking advantage of me on purpose."

"So why don’t you kiss me back?"

"I’ve already fallen for your trick; I won’t fall for it again."

If she kissed Ye Qiu back, wouldn’t it just give him the advantage?

However, resting in Ye Qiu’s arms, smelling the unique scent he exuded, gave Cao Ling a deep sense of security.

She loved this feeling very much.

Seeing more than ten minutes had passed, Ye Qiu knew it was time to go back.

"Let’s head back."

Cao Ling’s face still showed a blush, her hair disheveled by the wind, yet Ye Qiu found her beautiful and felt that this woman belonged to him, and no one could take her away.

Riding back to where they started, Lin Xiang was still wondering why Ye Qiu and Cao Ling had been gone so long and not knowing what they had been doing.

When Ye Qiu helped Cao Ling down, she wasn’t weak in the legs, but thinking about their intimate moments made her ears hot.

"Xiaomai, do you want to ride?"

"Ye Qiu, let Miss Lin Xiang ride first," Xiaomai said.
