Chapter 155

Su Congrong and Song Luokui were walking slowly. "Luokui, can you ride a horse? Do you want to try riding one?"

Song Luokui shook her head. "I can't." Who would have dared let her ride a horse when she was so clumsy as a child? Everyone was afraid she would be trampled by the horse.

Su Congrong was surprised, as she knew Song Luo was quite good at horseback riding. However, she also felt a bit awkward. "Sorry, I arranged an unsuitable venue. I didn't know you couldn't ride. I thought you could since your brother is so skilled at it."

Song Luokui nodded. "My brother is indeed good at horseback riding. It's okay, even though I can't ride, I can learn."

Su Congrong said, "Shall we try? I'll ask the riding instructor to find you a small horse to ride and play around."

Song Luokui didn't refuse. "Sure."

"Let's go change into riding clothes first."

"Okay."

The two soon changed into riding clothes and picked out a small horse. The riding instructor stood by to guide Song Luokui, while Su Congrong rode her large horse.

Song Luokui mounted the small horse, following the instructor's guidance. Afterward, the instructor walked in front, leading the horse at a slow pace. Su Congrong rode her horse alongside them.

Sitting high on the horse's back, Su Congrong had to look down to see Song Luokui. This elevated angle suddenly made her feel good.

Song Luokui didn't mind and kept petting the small horse. The instructor said the horse would listen to her after she became familiar with it.

As they walked and chatted, Su Congrong suddenly asked, "I noticed Young Master Chi seems quite fond of you. How did you two meet?"

She thought they might have met at a banquet or event.

Song Luokui replied, "We've known each other since childhood. We lived in the same compound."

Su Congrong was surprised. "So you two were childhood friends?"

Song Luokui said, "Not really. We weren't close as children but became familiar as we grew older."

"Is that so? Did your brother have any female friends in the compound?"

Su Congrong stammered but didn't say anything in the end. She watched as Song Luokui approached Chi Yu. Chi Yu immediately dismounted his horse, and the two said something she couldn't hear, but she could tell the Young Master Chi was truly gentle with Song Luokui.

Not only that, but he even picked her up and sat her on his large horse. After that, he mounted the horse himself, holding her as they rode off.

Having spent a long time in this circle, Su Congrong had seen many men who acted arrogant and superior. In her view, men of high status would never lower themselves for anyone, while their female companions would humble themselves before the men.

Of course, there were also normal ones, but from what she had seen, the men usually held the dominant position. Initially, she thought Song Luokui and the Young Master Chi would be like that, and some people in their circle thought so too.

But it seemed... she was mistaken. Recalling what Song Luokui had said earlier, "It was Chi Yu who pursued me."

Su Congrong suddenly laughed at herself. Of course, why would a person like Song Luokui need to humble herself? It was just her own lack of experience. Thinking about her own family... Su Congrong couldn't even laugh. If she couldn't have this accomplished person who didn't like her, would she really have to let her family arrange for her to marry some undesirable options?

On the other side, Song Luokui was nestled in Chi Yu's embrace as the horse walked slowly. She said unhappily, "Does everyone think I used some tricks to make you pursue me?"

Chi Yu immediately turned to look at her. "What's wrong? Who made you angry? Did that person say something to you earlier?"

Song Luokui said, "You tell me first if it's true or not."

Chi Yu stroked her face, "Of course not, it was I who used tricks to reverse the situation."

Song Luokui tilted her head back and wrinkled her nose, "I guess some people in the circle must think so, hmph, it's just that you're too attractive."

Chi Yu: "It's my fault. I'll give myself to you as an apology."

Song Luokui burst out laughing, "Is this how you apologize? You think too highly of yourself."

Seeing her laugh, Chi Yu also laughed, "Don't mind those people, shall I take you for a ride?"

"Yes."

With a "whoa," the valiant horse beneath them began galloping swiftly. Song Luokui faced the wind, occasionally turning her head to smile at Chi Yu, "So refreshing."

She suddenly recalled the lyrics from the Red Dust Companions in the drama Pearl Xiaoxiao, hmm, she felt that song suited the occasion.

Chi Yu was delighted to see her happy, and increased their speed.
