Chapter 155 No one will hurt me except you
Ning Yuechen looked absentmindedly at the European-style fountain with soft water flow in front of him, feeling worried.
She would be returning home in two days. The thought of having to part with Aunt Shi again made her feel anxious and sad.
She didn't like this place at all, but she didn't want to leave Aunt Shi. She wanted to stay by Aunt Shi's side and protect her forever.
But the reality is often helpless.
Ning Yuechen walked aimlessly like this, and unknowingly came to the horse farm in the manor. She looked absentmindedly at the horses grazing on the lawn, and her mind drifted away again.
I don't know how long I watched like this, when suddenly a soft and clear voice rang in my ears: "Miss Ning, do you want to ride a horse?"
Ning Yuechen looked over and saw a boy with an upright figure, handsome features and a youthful air. He looked to be no more than twenty years old.
I don’t know if it’s because he looks so clean, but her first thought about this person was very good.
So I replied: "No, I'm just taking a walk."
Xie Yuanan began to introduce himself: "My name is Xie Yuanan, I am a graduate student majoring in finance at Harvard University, and I am from Daocheng."
Ning Yuechen gave him a polite smile in return and said, "Hello, my name is Ning Yuechen."
"I know."
Xie Yuanan looked at her deeply, noticing the sadness between her eyebrows. A hint of hidden worry flashed across his eyes, and he said, "The manor has recently acquired a few gentle horses. Do you want to try them? The scenery in the evening is just right. You can enjoy the scenery while riding, and maybe you will feel more cheerful."
Ning Yuechen hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay."
She grew up in the Bai family. Among the "Six Arts" required for aristocratic education, she was proficient in all of them except archery, and riding a horse was naturally a piece of cake.
Seeing that she agreed, Xie Yuanan's face flashed with joy, and he said, "I'll take you to change into equestrian clothes."
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome."
Ning Yuechen changed into professional riding clothes, picked a tall and beautiful purebred horse, and strolled leisurely on the horse farm.
She looked at the golden setting sun in the distant sky, the magnificent sunset scene that merged with the evening clouds, and the half-hidden and half-visible European classical buildings shrouded in the mountain jungle, and thought that Xie Yuanan was right, the scenery at this time was indeed beautiful, dreamy and romantic.
Thinking of this, she pulled the reins back slightly and patted the horse's back gently. The next moment, the slow-moving thoroughbred horse immediately ran forward.
When Bai Yi came back from outside, she saw a man riding a horse at full speed in the sunset. She followed the tall, heroic figure closely with tenderness in her eyes.
Ning Yuechen didn't know how long he had been riding until night fell. He felt a long-lost sense of relief and then he rode back.
She was about to dismount when Xie Yuanan, who had come to greet her at the right moment, raised his right hand like a gentleman: "Miss Ning, I just saw the heroic spirit of a female hero. I admire you."
There was no flattery in his words. There was an appreciative smile in his eyes, and his whole body exuded a gentle and clean temperament.
Ning Yuechen looked at him from top to bottom, not knowing whether it was because the night was too dark and the surrounding lights were too bright and dazzling. In this interweaving of light and darkness, she saw a faint sadness on his face, as well as some complex and forbearing emotions.
She knew that this person was intentionally approaching her, but she did not feel the slightest bit uncomfortable. Instead, she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity and intimacy.
It felt like the two of them had met before somewhere.
Bai Yi walked closer and saw the girl on the horse reaching out her hand to the man waiting on the side, then using his strength to jump down.
Her eyes moved slightly, and a cold chill suddenly gathered in her eyes.
"Thank you for today." Ning Yuechen took the water handed to him by Xie Yuanan, but did not open the bottle cap to drink it. He just thanked him politely.
Xie Yuanan asked: "You're welcome. Are you feeling better?"
"Much better. It's a little late now. Did I delay your dinner?"
"It's okay. I usually eat dinner late."
Ning Yuechen nodded: "Okay, I'll go first, and you should go back and rest early."
"Okay, see you next time."
Ning Yuechen watched the person leaving, slightly dazed.
Why does this person always give me a very familiar feeling? It's as if they knew each other a long, long time ago.
As she was thinking about this question carefully, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind her: "What are you looking at?"
Ning Yuechen took a deep breath, then turned around and replied indifferently: "Nothing."
Bai Yi looked through her to the person who had already disappeared into the night. His beautiful but cold eyes revealed an uneasy look. He asked, "Do you know him?"
"I don't know him, he's just a stranger I met once."
"But from the way you two interacted at the stable just now, it didn't look like you two had just met."
Ning Yuechen was annoyed by her relentless attitude and said, "Bai Yi, don't forget what you promised Bai Jingyuan. If he sees you like this, I'm afraid you will get nothing in the end."
Ever since he went crazy that night, Bai Yi hasn't bothered her again in the past few days. She was glad that she could finally escape from his shackles, but she didn't expect that this man was still lingering around.
Not only was he haunting her, but he was also nagging and suspicious. She couldn't bear to think about whether he would also be disliked if he liked other girls.
Sure enough, after she mentioned Bai Jingyuan, Bai Yi stopped asking and asked, "Have you had dinner? Let's go back together."
"I'm not familiar with you, but I know the way and I can walk back by myself."
Bai Yi said nothing more, but just made way. Ning Yuechen did not stay for a moment and strode straight towards the main building area.
Just after taking a few steps, I heard a voice from behind: "Ning Yuechen, you are not attracted to both men and women, are you?"
Ning Yuechen was immediately furious, and turned around and yelled at her: "Eat your head, are you annoying?"
She was really being driven crazy by Bai Yi's series of questions. Not to mention that she already hated him, even if it was someone she liked who kept nagging like that, she would run out of patience.
How on earth did this person manage to drive people crazy and make them angry to death?
Bai Yi looked at her obviously irritable attitude and realized that he had pressed her too hard, so he spoke in a softer tone: "It's best not to get too close to strangers in the future. It's not safe."
Her words reminded Ning Yuechen of the night when this man went crazy and pressed him against the door and kissed him forcefully until he almost collapsed.
No matter how she struggled, she couldn't get free. It was not until she couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears that the man finally stopped her forceful behavior.
Thinking of this, Ning Yuechen asked her sarcastically: "Bai Yi, no one will hurt me except you. As long as you don't appear in front of me anymore, it will be the greatest protection for me."
