Chapter 378: It Was Such A Rush
Long Yang paused. He raised his other hand to rub her head gently. “I’m asking as your husband.”
Lu Liangwei was taken aback.
Long Yang took advantage of her distraction and grabbed her around the waist, quickly flying out of the holiday home.
They had just left when Chu Jiu and Zhu Yu walked out.
“Where is His Majesty taking Miss?” Zhu Yu was as worried as usual.
Chu Jiu said nothing.
This made Zhu Yu slightly upset. “You’re not worried about Miss at all. What’s the point of having you around, then?”
Chu Jiu shot an indifferent glance at her. “What’s there to be worried about? Would His Majesty ever harm Second Miss? Would he try to eat her up?”
Zhu Yu glared at her. “You were sent here by His Majesty. Obviously, you’re taking His Majesty’s side now.”
Chu Jiu did not want to argue with her. She turned to leave, leaving Zhu Yu simmering alone in her anger.
…
It was only upon arriving at the imperial holiday home that Lu Liangwei realized there was such a place on Tianzhu Mountain. It was similar to a temporary imperial residence.
Lu Liangwei was quite amazed by the racetrack in front of her.
It was the first time she had ever seen such a huge racetrack.
Long Yang personally led a maroon-colored horse toward her.
Lu Liangwei was quite tempted to have a turn on the horse when she saw this.
It would be such a thrilling rush to race a horse on such a vast land.
“Is this horse for me to ride?”
“Yes,” Long Yang replied lightly, his large hand holding her waist as he helped her astride the horse.
Lu Liangwei tried her best to ignore the warmth of his hand, as well as the numbly electrifying sensation she felt around her waist.
She decided not to hold it against him, on account of the opportunity he had given her to ride the horse.
She was about to start the horse moving by pulling on the reins when suddenly, Long Yang climbed up from behind and sat behind her.
Lu Liangwei, “…”
Both their bodies were too close, which made her feel uncomfortable as her body suddenly stiffened.
She tried to ignore this, but when Long Yang showed no signs of planning to dismount, she could not help bursting out, “There can’t be just one horse on this entire racetrack, can there?”
“You’re right. There is just this one horse,” a sly smile appeared on Long Yang’s lips as he replied carelessly. After that, his arms suddenly slipped past hers as he took the reins over from her hands.
Lu Liangwei’s lips twitched.
Was he allowed to lie so blatantly just because he was the Emperor?
She did not believe that there was only one horse available on such a vast racetrack.
“I can take you with me and we would still be able to gallop speedily,” Long Yang lowered his eyes to look at the young girl whom he was now practically hugging within his arms. He was in a good mood.
“I don’t really need you to take me,” Lu Liangwei said bluntly.
She had no idea Long Yang was still capable of teasing a girl at his age.
If she was younger, her knees might have buckled under his antics.
“You’re my fiancée. There’s nothing wrong with me taking you,” Long Yang’s expression was stern.
“Your humble servant does not need you to take me,” Lu Liangwei looked at him seriously.
“I want to take you,” Long Yang returned a stern look to her.
Lu Liangwei, “…”
What else could she say when he was already displaying his authority as the Emperor?
When Long Yang saw that he had managed to make her choke on her words, he smiled with his eyes. He pulled on the reins and brought the horse to a steady gallop, circling around the impressive racetrack.
Lu Liangwei felt a little stiff and uncomfortable at first, but as the speed increased, she gradually relaxed.
She had to admit that Long Yang was an expert with horses. It was such a rush to be galloping on a horse that he was controlling.
However, Lu Liangwei’s back grew wet after a few rounds.
The sun was blazing today and after galloping for some time, her body was soon drenched in sweat from the heat.
Long Yang immediately stopped the horse when he saw this. He took out a handkerchief to wipe away her sweat.
“Thank you, but I can do it myself,” Lu Liangwei immediately took the handkerchief from him, thinking it was hers. After taking it, she realized it was not her handkerchief after all. There was a clean, subtle fragrance on it, which clearly belonged to Long Yang.
