After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

After Chapter 551, I'll cook and ride together.
Even after arriving home, Jiang Hanying didn't rest. Her main task was to settle her huge pile of snacks, and of course, she would open them and try them out whenever she felt like it. In short, her mouth was never idle throughout the entire process.

Li Chengxiao was in charge of organizing all the items except for the snacks, and he also unpacked and untagged the newly bought clothes and threw them into the washing machine.

After they finished their respective tasks, they looked up and realized it was already evening.

Jiang Hanying immediately put down the snacks she was about to taste, saying, "I have to go to Que Lu's place. If I'm late, I won't be able to get a free meal."

Upon hearing her words, Li Chengxiao couldn't help but glance at the trash can placed not far away.

The once clean trash can has suddenly become almost full of snack wrappers!
I always have a feeling that the huge pile of snacks I just bought won't last more than a few days.

"Drive there? I'll ride a horse back, and you'll drive?"

Seeing her cheap owner nod, Jiang Hanying turned and went to the dressing room to change into clothes that were more suitable for horseback riding.

"Let's go."

When we arrived at Quelu, it was just lunchtime.

The two washed their hands, sat down, and began to eat without any hesitation.

Seeing that they were acting as if they were back in their own home, Que Lu said, "Speaking of which, how will you eat if you live on your own from now on? Tomorrow, the Que family will officially move into Lan Palace, and we will move there tomorrow as well, so I won't be letting you mooch any meals."

Jiang Hanying looked up from her rice bowl, glanced at Que Lu, and then looked at her cheap master.

Today at the supermarket, although she was busy throwing snacks into her shopping cart, she also noticed that the owner had bought quite a lot of meat, eggs, and vegetables.

Thinking back to the three-layered, broken-skinned, undercooked steamed buns I had made with such confidence before, I guess I can't really count on my cheap owner to cook, right?
Li Chengxiao met Jiang Hanying's tilted head and looked over, then replied, "I'll do it."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuangshuang thought about how Li Jingmo's cooking skills were limited to noodles, and wondered how her younger brother could possibly cook. She had reservations about his abilities.

"Do you need me to prepare a set of home-style recipes and send them to you?"

Li Chengxiao immediately nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble Miss Lin."

"You're too kind, it's nothing."

Li Jingmo looked at his younger brother, then at Lin Shuangshuang, and suddenly kicked her accurately from under the table.

When Li Chengxiao looked up, he saw his brother wink at him.

Li Chengxiao instantly understood the meaning behind that look: "..."

I was a little speechless, but I nodded anyway.

After all, it's just a matter of clicking "share".

After finishing her meal, Jiang Hanying saw Li Jingmo talking to his cheap master about the handover of Lan Palace today and visiting Old Man Duanmu in the hospital tomorrow. She was impatient to listen and simply went next door.

He untied the reins from the nearby post, patted the horse's head, and led it out.

Perhaps sensing that it could finally go out and run around freely, the big black horse excitedly swished its tail and even raised its front hooves to hop around in the yard.

Li Jingmo was still talking when she noticed her younger brother sitting in front of her glance into the yard twice in just a few seconds. She quickly ended the conversation, saying, "I'll prepare the gifts. You just need to show up tomorrow." She then waved him away, "Alright, you two should leave now. You're still here, but your minds have already wandered off!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chengxiao stood up and casually reminded him, "The gift doesn't need to be particularly elaborate; just showing courtesy is enough."

Li Jingmo paused for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I understand."

Although he still doesn't quite understand what Duanmu Sen's purpose was in coming to Queshan, or how a perfectly healthy person could have ended up in such a half-dead state.

But the timing alone is already very sensitive.

The stone embryo that Mr. Yuan needed happened to be born in Queshan, and Duanmu Sen was seriously injured in Queshan.

It's really hard for him not to connect the two.

As for the deeper reasons, he felt there was no need to think about them any further.

What good person could someone be to have gotten involved with that Mr. Yuan?

As long as the Duanmu family and the Li family haven't openly broken ties yet, they still have to maintain appearances.

Of course, he was also quite curious about just how badly Duanmu Sen had fallen this time; hearing descriptions from acquaintances was not as good as seeing it for himself.
After riding along the road for a while, Jiang Hanying told Dahei to run a few steps to catch up with the carriage that was leading the way. When her cheap master turned around, she asked, "Is there any place around here where I can ride a horse?"

Although she deliberately chose a less crowded route on her way back, Jiang Hanying still felt a little restrained, and she believed that Dahei must feel the same way.

"Let me see."

So, to let the two of them enjoy riding and letting the horse run freely, Li Chengxiao specially drove Jiang Hanying on a detour.

Midway through the journey, we changed course and went to Yinquan Park, which is not far from our new home and is still under construction.

This area is a newly developed region with incomplete infrastructure. Even the roads are only half-built, and there are dirt roads and grasslands that are more suitable for horse racing.

During the day, people occasionally come here to stroll around, enjoy the scenery, or fish. But at night, only a few streetlights provide illumination, and even those who enjoy night runs won't come here. If something unexpected happens, there's no one to turn to for help!
The two were simply highly skilled and daring, plus a dark horse with a screw loose who had no idea what fear was.

Seeing that the owner had parked the car on the side of the road, Jiang Hanying also pulled on the reins and stopped the horse, looking down into the car window.

"Get off, together?"

Li Chengxiao rolled up the lowered car window, opened the car door, and got out of the car.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Hanying immediately moved forward on her horse.

Li Chengxiao grabbed the saddle next to Jiang Hanying with one hand, placed the other hand on the horse's back, and leaped up, easily mounting the horse.

After Jiang Hanying and her cheap master came up, she relaxed and leaned back. She tugged on the reins, and the big black horse, which had been kicking and stamping its feet, suddenly spurred its hooves and charged forward. Even with two people on its back, it was still very easy, which showed that it had been well taken care of during this period.

The wind whistled past their ears as the dark horse, finally allowed to unleash its full speed, ran incredibly fast.

However, after a short while, Jiang Hanying realized that it was unwise to sit in the front and let the big black horse run wild, as her face was a little sore from the wind.

He turned to the cheap owner sitting in the back and said, "I want to switch to the back."

The owner, who was taller than her, was able to shield her from the wind.

"Release the stirrups."

Jiang Hanying subconsciously did as she was told, "Done."

The next second, her waist tightened suddenly, and she subconsciously pulled her legs back. Then, following the force of the twisting motion of her waist, she spun 180 degrees on the horse's back and sat back down. When she looked up, she met the eyes of her cheap master looking down at her.

"how about this?"

Coming to his senses, he nodded blankly: "Okay."

Although the wind was blowing on the back of my head instead, I put on my coat hood and it stopped blowing on me, and I didn't have to worry about the hood being blown off.

This time, Li Chengxiao took the reins to control the big black horse beneath him. Jiang Hanying looked down at her two free hands and simply reached out to hug her cheap master's waist.

Noticing the muscles under his palm tense up instantly, he couldn't help but squeeze them, then moved his hand around to pat his back again. "Relax!"

Li Chengxiao: "..."

It's not something you can just relax at will.

Before they knew it, the big black horse had reached the end of the road. Beyond that was a gentle uphill slope, and there were no more streetlights to illuminate the way. Li Chengxiao spurred the horse's flanks, and the horse's hooves slowed down.

Jiang Hanying leaned back slightly due to inertia, and the hand that had just been pulled away from its cheap owner's waist instinctively grabbed the other's shoulder again.

Li Chengxiao, fearing that her lower back might accidentally hit the saddle, quickly placed his hand on her lower back to cushion it, while simultaneously pulling her tightly into his arms.

The two instantly adopted an ambiguous posture.

However, it's impossible for me to be shy.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Hanying immediately put into practice what it means to act on an idea as soon as possible. She stepped on the stirrup, straightened her back, and kissed the Adam's apple that was gently sliding in front of her.

Li Chengxiao, who had underestimated just how unrestrained and audacious the person in his arms could be, hissed.

One simple move, and they were utterly routed!

Dark Horse: Is anyone speaking up for me?!
