My Secretary is a Little Sweet

Jing Xiâs pony was very obedient and stood still. Unfortunately, Lou Zilingâs horse was very fierce and did not let her ride it.
Lou Ziling didnât have any intention to give in to her. She sat on the horse and looked at her indifferently, letting her make a fool of herself.
Jing Xi was a little annoyed by his indifferent gaze and jumped over to him without hesitation.
The fierce horse neighed and galloped out.
Lou Ziling grabbed Jing Xi, who was on the verge of collapsing, and lifted her onto his horse with a little force.
Jing Xi was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat. She clutched Lou Zilingâs clothes tightly, and her face turned pale.
If she fell off the horse, she might break her leg!
Lou Ziling quickly reined in the horse and got off with Jing Xi in her arms. She stared at her coldly and said,ââYouâre looking to die?â
His tone was too harsh, and Jing Xi could not help but freeze.
No one had ever dared to talk to her like that in her entire life.
It was already a close call just now. Her heart was still beating fast and her hands and feet were cold. After being yelled at by Lou Ziling, her eyes turned red.
Jing Xi had wanted to apologize to Lou Ziling for almost getting him into trouble.
But now, she bit her lip and glared at him angrily, not wanting to say anything.
Lou Ziling only realized that her tone was inappropriate after she finished shouting. But it was too dangerous just now. Falling off the horse was completely different from the last time Jing Xi had a cold and fever. She might be disabled for life!
He couldnât suppress his anger at all.
He had always been a loner and didnât like to get close to others. He didnât like to talk, but now he was so angry that he wanted to curse!
âHow are you going to live the rest of your life if you break your leg? Are you going to sit in a wheelchair?â
âWhy are you staring at me? did I say something wrong? If it wasnât for my quick hands, you would have fallen down! Not only will you fall, but youâll also be stepped on by the horse!â
âYouâre not allowed to ride a horse in the future!â
Jing Xiâs eyes were filled with tears. Her voice was still as tender as a little girl âs, but her tone was extremely aggrieved.âI have you! I dared to jump on the horse because I thought you could save me even if something happened!â
She had unconsciously treated Lou Ziling as a form of protection.
Lou Ziling was stunned. The words she wanted to reprimand her couldnât come out of her mouth.
After Jing Xi finished speaking, she walked away in a Huff. She turned her back to Lou Ziling and refused to let him see her face. However, Lou Ziling knew that she was crying.
Lou Ziling was still standing there in silence until Jing Xiâs figure disappeared.
His back was wet and cold. Jing Xi had almost fallen off the horse just now, and he was also covered in cold sweat.
Jing Xi left the horse track and went to her personal dressing room to change. When she came out again, her expression had returned to normal. Other than her slightly red eyes, there was nothing unusual about her.
She didnât walk on the road for a while, look at the scenery, or take a stroll like she usually did. Instead, she got into the car and asked the driver to take her home.
The driver didnât suspect anything. He thought that Jing Xi was tired and didnât want to walk anymore. He was happy that he could be of use.
The bodyguard who had been following Jing Xi knew about the small accident that had happened on the horse. He had also heard Lou Zilingâs scolding.
He had been Jing Xiâs bodyguard since she was one year old. He would follow her most of the time. He had never seen anyone like Lou Ziling, who scolded her without caring about anything.
Lou Ziling wasnât that kind of person in the past. He didnât even respond to people, let alone scold them. He wouldnât even reply with a single word.
But today, he had flipped out.
The bodyguard didnât think it was a bad thing. At least it proved that Lou Ziling cared about Jing Xi. No matter what his purpose was, as long as he was willing to protect Jing Xi, it would be for the best.
Jing Yichen had told him to pay more attention to Lou Zilingâs movements in case Jing Xi was fooled. It seemed that Lou Ziling had no intention of lying to Jing Xi.
Otherwise, she could have said a few more good words to Jing Xi when she had just saved her. The little girl would have been grateful and touched, and the Lou family would have left a good impression on her again.
When they got home, Jing Xi threw herself into Shangguan ningâs arms as if nothing had happened. She talked and laughed with her and praised yang nuo for being handsome and gentlemanly. She didnât mention a word about Lou Ziling, nor did she mention that Lou Ziling had shouted at her.
Shangguan ning, on the other hand, didnât care about yang nuo. She was very concerned about Lou Ziling.âLou Ziling didnât go? He promised your father to protect you. I saw him once last month. Heâs a good guy. He doesnât talk much and doesnât have any intention of taking credit. Didnât you like him when you were young? You donât like it anymore?â
âI donât like it!â
Jing Xi pouted at Shangguan ning. She thought for a moment and said, âHeâs too ugly!â
Shangguan ning burst into laughter.âNo way. When your brother came back last time, he said that Lou Ziling will be the pride of the Lou family. Your brother has high standards. He said that Lou Ziling is not bad. He is indeed very good-looking.â
Shangguan ning also thought that Lou Ziling was pretty, but her daughterâs heart was not set yet, so it was possible that her beauty was not the same.
She didnât force Jing Xi to ask if Lou Ziling was okay. She just told her to be careful on the horse and said nothing more.
The next day, Jing Xi went to the horse track as usual. She changed into her riding suit and ran around the track.
Yang nuo arrived very quickly, but for the first time, Jing Xi did not have the desire to run away with him.
Looking at yang nuo, he didnât seem very handsome. His eyes were still dark blue, which didnât suit Jing Xiâs taste. She still preferred black eyes.
The racecourse was very large. Jing Xi rode slowly on her horse. The handsome man had lost his handsomeness overnight, and she was unhappy.
She scanned the entire horse track but did not see Lou Ziling. She was furious. âThis person is so petty. Heâs not coming!â
She was the one who was scolded, but Lou Ziling was angry. It was unreasonable!
Jing Xi got off the horse and let it eat the grass. She lay on the grass with her eyes closed and cursed,â
âUgly freak, youâre so stingy!â
âHeâs so fierce, he definitely wonât be able to get a wife in the future!â
âHmph, I wonât talk to you anymore!â
âItâs so ugly â¦â
â¦â¦
As she mumbled to herself, a voice suddenly came from above her,ââWho are you scolding?â
Jing Xi opened her eyes and saw Lou Zilingâs handsome face.
âIâm scolding you,âshe admitted without hesitation.
Lou Ziling probably didnât expect that someone would admit that he was cursing her behind her back so directly. He was obviously stunned for a while before he said indifferently,ââCome here.â
âIâm not going over,â Jing Xi said, still lying down.âOtherwise, youâre going to say Iâm looking for death again.â
Lou Ziling sighed helplessly.âI won ât. As long as youâre obedient.â
His tone was like he was coaxing a child. Jing Xi jumped up from the ground in excitement. âIâm not a child!â
