Chapter 203 Help
After hearing him say "OK", Xiao Guoer pulled her horse back and didn't have the patience to listen to the rest of his sentence.
She was holding back her anger, and it was considered that she had exercised restraint by not jumping up and pointing at his nose and scolding him!
But Xiao Guo'er hadn't walked for long when she saw the Eighth Prince riding his horse very slowly in front of her, who was only a few steps away from her, and she began to feel eager to try something else.
She was really tired, and her calves were cramped. Although she couldn't ride a horse, it shouldn't be a big problem for her to sit on the horse and let it carry her back home, right?
Thinking of this, she walked a little further, and when she still couldn't see the place where they came from, she stopped.
It was too far away, too far to reach! Her legs couldn't take it!
The horse also stopped as she was holding the reins, and stood there shaking its head.
Xiao Guoer gently stroked its neck and whispered into its ear, "I shouldn't have lost my temper with you just now. You won't be angry with me, okay? I've been walking with you for so long, and now I can't walk anymore. Can you carry me back? If you don't object, I'll take it as your consent. I can't ride a horse, so just walk back slowly. Don't let me fall."
After saying that, Xiao Guoer tried to hold on to the saddle, put one foot on the stirrup, and flipped over, and got on the horse very easily.
Xiao Guoer couldn't help but be overjoyed to take the first step on horseback riding so easily.
It seems that riding a horse is not that difficult! She is really a genius!
But her happiness did not last more than a second, because the next moment, when she carefully adjusted her sitting position, her legs stiffly clamped the horse's belly. The horse seemed to have received the command and immediately raised its hooves and galloped forward quickly.
Her body leaned back due to inertia, and her panicked cry suddenly rang out in the air, "Ah——"
Zhao Yunrong had been paying attention to what was happening behind her, and when she whispered to the horse, he couldn't help laughing.
When he saw her being carried forward by the horse, screaming, and shaking as if she might fall off the horse at any time, he immediately drove his horse to catch up with her.
Xiao Guoer held the reins tightly, lowered her body, and tried hard to maintain her balance, for fear of falling off the horse's back and being covered in blood.
Her heart beat rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of her throat, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Just as her fingers felt pain from the reins, she heard a steady voice behind her.
"Relax your calves, don't straighten them, don't hug the horse's belly, just gently stick to the sides of the horse's body."
She did as she was told, gritting her teeth amid the bumps, and trying hard to adjust her movements and posture.
But she was too nervous, and one of her feet slipped off the pedal while she was moving. Her sense of security suddenly dropped, and Xiao Guoer dared not act rashly anymore.
Her frightened voice floated in the rushing air, "Help—"
Fortunately, although she was riding a BMW, the Eighth Prince was riding a best horse among the best ones, and he caught up with her in a moment.
When the two horses were running side by side, Zhao Yunrong reached out and grabbed her reins, and with just a stretch and a pull, he controlled the speed and direction of the horses.
As the speed gradually slowed down, Xiao Guoer finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She had not yet recovered from the shock and wanted to jump off the horse immediately. But before her trembling legs could move, the same steady and persuasive voice came to her ears again.
"Look straight ahead, don't look down at the horse, keep your head up, chin in, upper body relaxed, back straight. Hold the reins with both hands, thumbs lightly press on them, and then take them out from between the ring finger and little finger and hold them in the palm of your hand. Hold them ten centimeters in front of your abdomen, and don't raise them higher."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Guoer obediently changed her movements one by one according to his instructions. With him by her side, she felt much safer, and the thought of getting off the horse suddenly disappeared.
After following his instructions, Xiao Guoer found that her sense of balance on the horse had improved a lot.
"Now try to reach the pedals with your feet. Yes, just like that. Don't lean to your side."
Xiao Guoer finally stepped back into the pedal, and her body, which had been as straight as a string, gradually relaxed.
But she still didn't dare to whip the horse or gallop. After the fright just now, she was very grateful to be able to sit so quietly.
Zhao Yunrong followed beside her and had no intention of letting her ride away right now.
How can you think about running when you have just learned to walk?
The two horses were walking slowly like this. In the peripheral light, the two people and two horses were walking slowly side by side. From a distance, it seemed like they were strolling leisurely in the garden.
Zhao Yunrong was enjoying the tranquility and leisure at the moment, and the edges and corners of his face softened a little.
"Would you like to learn how to ride a horse?"
Xiao Guo'er was losing interest. She had no intention of learning horse riding. She was extremely tired and had just been frightened. She just wanted to go back.
Of course, the more important reason is that she is still immersed in the pain of a broken heart, feeling depressed, and has no intention to learn other new things.
But before she could say no, the man continued to give orders, "Starting tomorrow, you will learn to ride a horse from me. You will use this BMW. I will personally supervise you so that you don't have to use your legs to walk the horse in the future."
Xiao Guoer was furious. What was wrong with this person? He had to give her something to do? He had to exploit her labor?
However, facing the Eighth Prince's unquestionable gaze, she knew she couldn't refute it easily, so she just hung her head and said nothing.
Finally, the two horses reached the finish line. Up to this point, they had spent a long time here, and the moon was already at its zenith.
The waiting servant immediately stepped forward to lead the horse, and another servant stepped forward to hand the Eighth Prince a clean towel.
After getting off the horse, Xiao Guoer walked straight towards the carriage. She was full of complaints and extremely tired. She didn't even bow to the Eighth Prince and got into the carriage directly.
Zhao Yunrong looked at her tired face and didn't mind her rude behavior.
When he saw her getting on the carriage, she struggled to step onto the shaft twice because her legs were tired. A faint smile unconsciously appeared between his brows.
Tonight, she shouldn't suffer from insomnia because she slept too much during the day. She would naturally sleep well after being extremely tired.
Zhao Yunrong returned to his bedroom. He was very tired tonight and was planning to go to bed directly after washing up, but a servant came to report that Wu Zinian had been waiting outside the door to report something.
He called Wu Zinian in to answer the question.
