C49 The Two of Them Were Flirting

After Hsiang Xuanfei and Jiang Wanxin left, only Jiegeng, Duan Shuang, and Ho Lingloong were left outside the village.

"Miss Bai, if you don't mind, take my carriage." Ho Lingloong did not want to ride in the same carriage as Bai Jiegeng, but if she got intimate with Zhen'an King, Ho Lingloong's anger would be even greater.

"No need." A person with two faces and three blades made Jiegeng feel scared. She had been arrogant just now, but now she could be gentle and generous.

"Miss Bai, don't push it away. Otherwise, how are you going to go back?" Ho Lingloong was the only one left in the carriage.

"None of your business!" Jiegeng did not care if Duan Shuang was there or not. She did not hide her dislike for someone.

Ho Lingloong was used to the hypocrisy of a young lady from a noble family. When she met Jiegeng's straightforward character, she felt stifled for a moment. She wanted to say something angrily, but because Duan Shuang was right in front of her, she could only swallow her anger.

"Your Royal Highness, we are not going back to the city, right?" Jiegeng was anxious to get rid of Ho Lingloong. She had not seen Duan Shuang for a few days and finally had a chance to be alone. How could she let his rotten peach blossoms block her?

But as soon as she said those words, Jiegeng regretted it. Duan Shuang was not the kind of person who would agree to requests. If he rejected it now, wouldn't it be too embarrassing in front of Ho Lingloong?

"En." Duan Shuang agreed with Jiegeng.

Jiegeng was overjoyed and immediately looked at Ho Lingloong with a proud expression. "Did you hear that? Princess Linglong should return to the city on her own. We, no! Same! Way!"

Ho Lingloong suppressed her anger. After blessing Duan Shuang, she got into the car and left on her own.

When Ho Lingloong's carriage left, Jiegeng did not forget to make faces at it.

Jiegeng's appearance of having achieved success, in Duan Shuang's eyes, became a kind of true temperament.

"Your Royal Highness, can you teach me how to ride a horse?" Now that there was no one else around, Jiegeng began to ask Duan Shuang. At this moment, even if she was rejected, she would not do anything.

Duan Shuang looked at Jiegeng suspiciously, "What are you doing now?"

"I just want to learn how to ride a horse. This way, when I go out in the future, I will not need to rely on a horse carriage." Jiegeng did not see any signs of resistance in Duan Shuang's eyes. She suddenly felt that there was a chance.

Duan Shuang turned around and instructed Anzhao. "After you leave your horse behind, you can withdraw."

"Yes." Anzhao unwillingly trapped his mount on the tree. Without it, it meant that he had to return to the city. Apart from using Light-body Technique, he also used the carriage to transport farming tools.

Jiegeng excitedly raised her thumb behind her back to release the joy in her heart.

Duan Shuang turned around and saw Jiegeng with a bright smile. His mood also became better.

Duan Shuang held the two horses in front and Jiegeng followed behind.

Did this look like a chivalrous partner wandering the world? Jiegeng shook the grass butterfly with one hand, and her mind began to think.

"Let's do it here. It is wide here." After a while, Duan Shuang finally stopped.

"En!" Jiegeng obediently followed by the side. This kind of scene was very familiar to Jiegeng.

Duan Shuang's gaze immediately landed on the grass butterfly in Jiegeng's hand, and his brows immediately knitted tightly.

"What is it?" Jiegeng saw the frown on Duan Shuang's face and immediately became nervous.

"You have to be serious in class. Don't act like a child and still have some toys in your hands." Duan Shuang acted like a strict teacher.

Jiegeng raised the grass butterfly in her hand. "Are you talking about this?" Jiegeng intended to put it into the small, slanted cloth bag that she carried with her.

"Throw it away." Duan Shuang actually used a commanding tone.

"But, this is a gift from Mr Hsiang." Jiegeng hesitated. "It is not good to throw away the gift made by others." Jiegeng tried to get amnesty.

"Then I will send you back to the mansion." Duan Shuang did not waste his breath and directly let Jiegeng choose.

When Jiegeng heard that, she immediately threw the grass butterfly out. In her heart, she was still thinking. Mr Hsiang, sorry, I did not mean to.

Seeing Jiegeng's decisive choice, Duan Shuang's mood was very good.

"Can you get on the horse yourself?" Duan Shuang started teaching from the most basic.

Jiegeng shook her head.

For the next two hours, Jiegeng stopped on how to get on the horse.

When Jiegeng finally relied on her own strength to get on the horse smoothly, she could not help but let out a long sigh of relief.

"Your Royal Highness! Look, I can do it." Jiegeng sat on Duan Shuang's personal mount and showed off.

Duan Shuang held the horse that Anzhao left behind. There was no joy on his face, but he suddenly said. "You are the dumbest I have ever seen."

But this sentence did not hurt Jiegeng. She was not good at this aspect. Jiegeng knew her own limitations in this matter. "Your Royal Highness, there are professionals in this field." Jiegeng had some resentment towards Duan Shuang for ruining her mood.

"It's not like I want to take the martial arts test. It's fine as long as I can learn it." Naturally, she muttered this sentence in a low voice.

"Top scorer in martial arts? You think too highly of yourself, don't you?" Duan Shuang continued to ridicule.

"Your Royal Highness, you can even hear this?" Jiegeng was shocked. "Ah! Are you like the martial arts masters in the book? Can you hear everything?"

Duan Shuang did not reply. He just looked at Jiegeng's rich facial expression playfully.

"In the past, in the past, I..." Jiegeng suddenly became silent.

"How was it in the past?" Duan Shuang teased.

"Did you hear everything I said behind your back?" Jiegeng asked carefully.

Duan Shuang smiled.

Jiegeng lowered her head in despair.

After a while, Jiegeng looked up dejectedly. "Your Royal Highness, this is called eavesdropping." Jiegeng complained. "You are a gentleman, how can you do such a thing?"

"You are becoming more and more disrespectful." Duan Shuang was not satisfied with Jiegeng's definition of him.

Jiegeng sensibly shut her mouth.

Duan Shuang also mounted the horse and started to use himself as a model to guide Jiegeng's next move.

"Hold on to the reins tightly and then gently hold onto the horse's belly at the same time." Although they were on different horses, Duan Shuang ordered his mount to only approach his horse.

Jiegeng followed what Duan Shuang said, but the horse still stayed where it was.

"Your Royal Highness, this won't do." Jiegeng's tone was filled with grievance.

Duan Shuang could not help but let out a long sigh. It had taken so long to get on the horse. It was almost dark. Could he teach her to let the horse move?

Perhaps Duan Shuang's long sigh beside Jiegeng had provoked Jiegeng. Jiegeng could not help but pat the horse's belly with both feet. Coincidentally, Jiegeng's boots today had sharp accessories on it, and the horse's belly was stimulated. It actually began to crazily run forward.

"Ah!" Jiegeng was frightened by the sudden madness of the horse. Fortunately, Jiegeng's hands were still tightly holding onto the reins, so she was not thrown off the horse.

Jiegeng tightly hugged the back of the horse in fear, and her hands could not help but circle around the neck of the horse.

The moment the horse galloped out, Duan Shuang also rode forward on the horse. But, how could Anzhao's mount match his own horse?

Even though Duan Shuang kept whipping the horse, the two horses still maintained a certain distance from each other.
