When they landed on the island, Mu Yazhe and Yun Shishi alighted from the helicopter. The local staff had already been waiting at the helipad for a long time. They hurriedly came forward with a white horse by their side.
Mu Yazhe walked forward and exchanged a few words with him. Suddenly, he turned around and asked, âMadam, shall we go to the beach to enjoy the sea breeze?â
âNow?â
âYes! Thereâs still some time before dinner. Why donât we go to the beach to look at the scenery? Havenât you always wanted to see the pink beach?â
Mu Yazhe looked at the sky again. âThis is the best time to catch the scenery, and itâs not too hot.â
âAlright.â
Yun Shishi took another look at the snow-white horse and asked curiously, âAre we going to ride on the horse?â
âUh huh.â
Feeling a little nervous, she immediately asked, âIâve never learned how to ride a horse before. Will I fall?â
âI can ride.â Mu Yazhe had learned horse-riding when he was young. Even though he was not an expert, he was very familiar with handling horses.
The staff member walked forward and wanted to help her onto the horse, but he was stopped by Mu Yazhe.
How could a petty man bear to let his wife be touched by someone else? Even if she had to be helped onto the horse, he would do it himself.
Yun Shishi was not able to do anything about him of course. She could only glance at the local staff, who was smiling uneasily by the side, and return his smile.
Noticing this, Mu Yazhe was slightly displeased and said, âFrom now on, youâre not allowed to smile at other men.â
ââ¦â
For a moment, she wasnât quite sure how she should react. âHubby, isnât that a little overboard?â
âNot really.â
Without further ado, he walked over and helped her onto the horse. After she was able to sit steadily, he got onto the horse behind her and put his arms around her.
Yun Shishiâs heart skipped a beat. She could not help but recall that when they were filming âLethal Beautyâ, they also had scenes of riding horses.
However, most of the actors nowadays were delicate and rather spoilt. Hence even though she had taken the initiative to ask to learn riding, the filming crew did not dare to be negligent as they considered the activity risky and she could easily fall. Hence, many scenes were shot when the horse was still.
Fresh in her memory was a scene where she rode on a horse and rushed to the Imperial City. With one hand holding the reins of the horse and the other holding the whip, she galloped at top speed all the way.
In reality though, during the filming, the horse was still. She bent over on the horseback and had to move as though she was riding. The scenery along the way was in fact a green screen and special effects were only added later on!
She worried about whether it would look somewhat uncoordinated and out of place. However, the special effects created at the later stage were quite impressive. It looked as though she was really riding a horse.
So, even though she had been on horseback, the horse did not move.
When she first got onto the horse, she felt that the saddle was a little hard!
Mu Yazhe held onto the reins as his long legs tightened around the horseâs belly. The white horse started to move slowly.
The horse had undergone rigorous training and Mu Yazhe knew how to order it around. Hence, under his control, the horse was very obedient.
âItâs so obedient!â
Yun Shishi was a little surprised. So this was how real horseback riding felt!
For a moment, she was eager to try.
âIs learning to ride difficult?â
âItâs not difficult.â
âI want to learn too!â
He smiled at her excited expression and said, âIâll teach you tomorrow.â
âReally?â She had half expected that the man would be worried about her falling off a horse and forbid her from learning to ride!
âWhen have I ever lied to you?â
