ADWMCES Chapter35

Chu Fengqing tightened his hands slightly, silently responding to his words. Ji Yujin paused, and his eyes lit up slightly.

The horse carried them into the woods, where there were large tracts of pine trees.

Their intrusion broke the tranquility of this ice and snow kingdom, and the snow fell from the pine branches, making a rustling sound.

Ji Yujin whipped the horse, and the horse ran faster and faster. He said, “You have to run around too. Your body is so weak. I will teach you how to ride a horse after the winter hunt.”

A faint light flickered in Chu Fengqing’s eyes, and his voice, clear and cold like snow scattered on pine needles yet carrying a trace of anticipation, “It’s a deal then.”

When they arrived at the place, Ji Yujin jumped off the horse first.

Chu Fengqing looked down and noticed that the horse was still quite high off the ground. It was his first time riding a horse, and he didn’t know how to get off.

He frowned and looked at Ji Yujin, his meaning was self-evident.

Ji Yujin calmly observed the surroundings, as if he didn’t notice his pleading look. After a while, he finally responded, “Hey, why haven’t you come down yet?”

Chu Fengqing pursed his lips and said helplessly, “If you went on stage to perform, not a soul would come to see it. The seats would be empty. Truly awful acting.”

“Hahaha.” Ji Yujin laughed loudly, refusing to let himself feel so gloomy in the imperial city. “I’m certain it’ll still be a huge hit just from looking at my face.”

He paused and said, “How about we make a deal? You say something nice, and I’ll carry you down.”

Chu Fengqing said, “Scoundrel.” It was clearly him who carried him up there.

Ji Yujin did not deny it and even admitted it very readily. He said, “Yes, yes, yes, I am a villain, I am a scoundrel.”

As he spoke, he placed his hands in front of the horse to prevent it from moving around. He raised the corners of his eyes and smiled. “Just tell me, do you want to beg a scoundrel like me or not?”

Chu Feng pursed his lips into a straight line, obviously not expecting Ji Yujin to be so shameless, and he found that no matter when, he could never beat him in a quarrel. Was this also a talent?

Be done with it.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was more lively than usual: “Lord Governor, you are someone of great moral stature, and don’t mind the offenses committed by one of low moral stature.”

Ji Yujin’s eyes lit up, and he said, “I can carry you down, but you see, your shoes are not suitable for walking in the snow. They will get wet in a short time. You should just sit on the horse. I will lead you, just hold the reins tightly.”

Then what was he asking him to beg for? This guy must have made plans long ago, and everything he did before was just to tease him.

Chu Fengqing couldn’t help but curse in a low voice, “Dog Ji.”

Ji Yujin heard this, and he laughed twice. “How heartless!”

He added, “Hold the reins tight and don’t fall off.”

After hearing this, Chu Fengqing tightened his grip on the reins and pulled his cloak closer to prevent the cold wind from blowing in.

Afterwards, Ji Yujin started hunting.

Chu Fengqing felt a little surprised. Logically speaking, he should have a wider field of vision when sitting on the horse, but often before he could react, Ji Yujin’s arrow was already shot out.

He almost never missed a target, and he soon caught a lot of prey.

Chu Fengqing secretly covered his nose. The smell of blood would be stronger when there were more prey.

After seeing this, Ji Yujin jumped onto the horse. His face and clothes were inevitably stained with the blood of the prey. Chu Fengqing frowned slightly and wanted to hide forward.

He hesitated and said, “You… how about you get off the horse? It’s too tiring for the horse to carry so many things.”

Ji Yujin was so furious that he burst out laughing. “I gave it my all and worked tirelessly to win this prize for you, yet you’re so admirable that you even despite on me.”

“Ask yourself, is this what a gentleman should do?” It seemed a little unkind.

Hearing his complaints, Chu Fengqing couldn’t help but curl his eyes, “The dignified Governor is also petty.”

Ji Yujin laughed and said, “The dignified Madam Governor is also heartless.”

He was still thinking about collecting some debts from him this time, but before he could take any action, his brows furrowed.

Suddenly, a group of birds were startled in the woods. They flew into the sky, and the sound of “crows” could be heard.
