Xi Mo glanced at Ruan Yesheng's right hand on her shoulder. After a moment of silence, he said, "Try first to see if you can go up. Recall the steps I told you earlier, use your right foot to jump."
Ruan Yesheng pursed his lips, and as soon as Xi Mo said the word "jump", he tiptoed his right foot on the ground and jumped up a distance that was neither low nor high. It's just that this distance doesn't even cross the saddle, not even the horse's stomach.
"...Wait a minute." Ruan Yesheng dropped his right foot back to the ground.
Adjusted the state and jumped a few times, but still failed.
Her face was slightly tilted, she didn't look at Xi Mo, and seemed a little embarrassed.
Ruan Yesheng was not the kind of person who would be easily embarrassed.
A person's life cannot be smooth and smooth. From growth to maturity, no matter how smart a person is, there will inevitably be some mistakes, shame and embarrassment. Especially Ruan Yesheng, who is both dancing and acting, used to face the public from time to time. Once there is a performance error, it is not an ordinary shame. But even if it was so humiliating in front of a large audience, Ruan Yesheng didn't feel embarrassed, he faced it generously, adjusted the remedy, and continued the next performance. She feels that since the fault has already occurred, it is useless to be embarrassed, and how to complete the rest is the most important.
She will not be embarrassed or embarrassed, and she will walk through the market with a smiling fairy all day, which will inevitably make people feel that she is thick-skinned, and even people who hate her will treat her with "shameless" maliciously. .
Only Ruan Yesheng knew that these embarrassments and embarrassments in her life, together with her heart, were all planted on Xi Mo.
She was embarrassed that she could finally learn to ride with Xi Mo, but she was so nervous and scared that she didn't even jump to the height of the horse's stomach several times.
Ruan Yesheng still kept his left foot on the stirrup and his right hand on Xi Mo's shoulder.
After learning dance for so many years, she has always been very confident in her physical coordination and flexibility, and it is a piece of cake to jump and dance on the stage. Although he is not using his own body now, his confidence is still there. Who would have thought that Xi Mo would see his appearance so scared that he couldn't even jump on a horse. It was a shame.
It's okay to be seen by others.
It was Xi Mo.
Ruan Yesheng was embarrassed, and she didn't want Xi Mo to find out her embarrassment, so of course she would hide it more in her smile. This time, she stared at Xi Mo, as if such a straightforward gaze could disguise her more calmly, and said, "Do you think I'm too unsatisfactory, I can't even get on the horse's back so many times, you didn't teach me I'm interested?"
Xi Mo glanced at her, but didn't know what he saw, but said calmly: "It's normal to be uncomfortable just learning."
Ruan Yesheng was disguised calmly just now, but this time he was really calm and said with a smile, "So you are still interested in me?"
Xi Mo: "..."
"Have you noticed that every time you speak, you always miss one or two important words?" Xi Mo's eyes swept her lightly, and said with a stern expression, "You missed a word 'teaching', please You make up and say it again."
"I don't." Ruan Yesheng said more calmly: "I just said 'so you are still interested in teaching me', and did not miss the word 'teaching'. Maybe you want to hear me say this, so Ignore it automatically."
If it was before, Xi Mo had been told by Ruan Yesheng that the veins on her forehead would have been blown up, but she didn't this time. She looked more "calm" than Ruan Yesheng, and her eyes were still Looking at Ruan Yesheng.
Ruan Yesheng was a little confused by the sight.
I don't know if it's an illusion. She recently discovered that once Xi Mo was choked by her words, he was as irritable as before, but his face was still gnashing his teeth and holding a arrogant look less and less. Facing her, Xi Mo became more and more The more calm he is, sometimes he will retort, sometimes he will be very quiet, and sometimes Ruan Yesheng can't handle it.
She didn't know what Xi Mo was thinking. It's not that she hasn't guessed, but she just guessed and guessed, and because she was afraid of guessing wrong, she simply stopped guessing.
Xi Mo suddenly asked Ruan Yesheng, "Do you believe in yourself?"
"certainly."
Xi Mo asked again: "Then do you believe me?"
Ruan Yesheng stopped.
Her answer, of course, was also "of course." Of course there is no need for any hesitation.
It's just that she didn't expect that Xi Mo would suddenly ask her like this, and it was only a meal.
"I believe you." Ruan Yesheng said. She actually regretted that she didn't say it right away. This kind of remark was a few seconds late, as if she didn't seem to be as powerful as saying it right away.
Xi Moyu became a little warmer: "The fundamental reason for you to be like this is that you have some psychological burden on horseback riding, you are afraid of falling, and your body will inevitably be unable to keep up. Most people are afraid when they first start riding. Horses are dangerous for beginners. So you don't have to feel anything."
Ruan Yesheng asked her, "When you first learned to ride horses, were you afraid?"
Xi Mo seemed to hesitate for a while before saying, "I'm afraid too."
This hesitation is not obvious, and you can't notice it unless you look closely. But Ruan Yesheng was too familiar with her, so she sneered: "You lied to comfort me?"
"Take me as comforting you." Xi Mo was pierced by Ruan Yesheng, and there were some ups and downs in his eyes: "I admit that I was not afraid at the beginning."
This time Ruan Yesheng didn't speak any more, with a smile in his eyes. She couldn't take it, she thought it was, and she thought so, anyway, Xi Mo didn't know and couldn't control it.
Xi Mo seemed to be able to read minds. She looked at the smile in Ruan Yesheng's eyes and said, "If you really think so, then so be it."
Ruan Yesheng: "..."
Xi Mo picked up the previous words about horseback riding, and continued: "In short, don't be nervous or afraid when you get on the horse, don't think about anything, just think that you have to go up. I promise not to let you fall, since you Say trust me, and I want you to believe I can do it too, or I won't promise you."
Ruan Yesheng's heart warmed, and without saying anything, he decided to try again.
She held the reins and mane in her left hand, the saddle in her right hand, and took off with her feet on the ground. Perhaps she was not used to it, and she still failed to get up.
Failing, Ruan Yesheng glanced at Xi Mo cautiously.
Xi Mo gestured to his shoulder: "If you're not used to holding a saddle, you can use my shoulder to lend a hand when you go up later, but the reins of your left hand must be grasped at all times."
Ruan Yesheng said: "In that case, isn't it possible that your shoulder will hurt?"
"Actually, the key to getting on a horse is leveraging. The two levers when you are holding the reins and when you jump with your right foot are very important. If you do everything in one go when you mount the horse, and put your weight on these two, then even if When you started with your right hand on my shoulder, it didn't hurt too much."
When Xi Mo said this, the conversation changed: "But if you don't go up, then you will be unable to do anything, and of course my shoulder will hurt easily."
Ruan Yesheng was afraid of hurting her, so when she heard this, she quickly refused: "Then I won't take your shoulder."
"No." Xi Mo said solemnly, "I have to take it."
Ruan Yesheng: "..."
After Xi Mo finished speaking, he signaled Ruan Yesheng to get on the horse. Seeing her expression, Ruan Yesheng knew that it wouldn't work if she didn't get on the horse, and it wouldn't work if she didn't take her shoulders. She also knew that Xi Mo made it clear that she was using her shoulders to cover her up. If she really cared about it, she would naturally try to grasp it as much as possible. The right way to leverage.
Since it doesn't work, in order to make Xi Mo's shoulders more comfortable, she can only go out and do it in one go. However, it was indeed her first time to learn to ride a horse. When she got on the horse, it was inevitable that she didn't get it right. Fortunately, she really didn't think about anything this time, just to get on the horse, so as not to burden Xi Mo when she climbed halfway. This sacrifice actually made her reluctantly climb up, and she subconsciously tried her best to land on the reins and bounce on her right foot when she took advantage of it.
Naturally, Xi Mo could also feel that the force on his shoulders was not heavy, and his face looked much softer, and said, "Try to dismount again."
When Ruan Yesheng got off the horse, he stumbled a little, but he still got down after all. Xi Mo said, "If you practice more, you'll get used to it soon."
Ruan Yesheng practiced getting off and on the horse under the guidance of Xi Mo. She learned things quickly, and gradually became proficient, and she was naturally much more courageous. After getting used to leveraging, Ruan Yesheng no longer supported Xi Mo's shoulders, but instead supported the saddle. It was only the next time that there was a pause. This kind of pause could easily lead to a failure to mount the horse. Xi Mo hurried forward two steps, holding Ruan Yesheng's buttocks with one hand and her waist with the other, and was about to help her up.
Ruan Yesheng was not prepared to be touched by her, but he still encountered such a sensitive position. With a trembling, he immediately climbed onto the horse's back and sat on the saddle with his back straight.
Xi Mo: "..."
Ruan Yesheng: "..."
One was standing on the ground, the other was sitting on a horse, and the two looked at each other.
After a long time, Xi Mo said, "What are you hiding from?"
Ruan Yesheng seemed to be waking up from a dream, looking down from above, with a glamorous look in his eyes, and asked, "Where did you touch me?"
Xi Mo almost didn't hold back the blood in his heart: "It's not touching, it's just helping."
Ruan Yesheng pretended to be shy: "Help, round it up and touch it."
We have known each other for so many years, of course Xi Mo knows that she always pretends when she is pranking, and the words she says when she is pretending are all nonsense, so Xi Mo sneered and replied: "According to your logic, touch, and then round it up to sleep? "
Ruan Yesheng: "..."
Xi Mo: "..."
The atmosphere was awkward for a while.
Xi Mo felt a little hot in this embarrassment. This kind of weather is dry, but after all, there is a wind blowing back, it is not really hot, and I don't know which corner the heat came from.
"Now you know how to get on the horse?" Xi Mo looked away, as if he didn't know which direction to look in. He looked down at the ground, paused, and then raised his head to ask.
"It's almost there." Ruan Yesheng didn't look away, she sat on the horse and looked at Xi Mo with a smile in the corner of her eyes: "What's on the ground?"
Xi Mo said casually: "There are ants."
The sun was clear, Ruan Yesheng sat on the horse, her shadow merged with the shadow of the horse, and fell silently on the ground.
Ruan Yesheng recalled the look in Xi Mo's eyes just now, and the direction of her gaze when she looked at the ground. She was stunned at first, and then pursed her lips into a slightly curved arc.
"Now I'll teach you how to make the horse move under your drive. To drive the horse, you rely on your own body movements to give instructions to the horse, and the most important thing is the force of the legs. It will move forward. In short, the waist, hips, thighs, calves, etc., the whole body should be coordinated, so that you and the horse can find a coordinated rhythm. Different reactions. If your movements are too large or too nervous, the horse is very smart. It can judge that you are not a good rider through these, so it will not be obedient, or even bully you—" Xi Mo held his arms and looked After speaking seriously, he gradually found that Ruan Yesheng was staring at her shadow on the ground with a subtle smile. He stopped immediately and said, "Be serious, what are you looking at?"
Ruan Yesheng looked back from Xi Mo's shadow and quickly said, "I'm sorry, I'm looking at the ants."
Xi Mo: "..."
"I deserted, and it was my fault. After that, I will listen carefully and not miss a word."
Ruan Yesheng's ability to dress softly and be obedient is so proficient to the core that Xi Mo only felt that his eyelids trembled, his face was sullen, and he stopped talking.
"It's started, and I'll do as I say later." Xi Mo grabbed Tiao Ma Suo and was about to move forward. After a moment of silence, he turned back and said, "I'll always be holding you in front, you don't have to be afraid."
Ruan Yesheng nodded.
Xi Mo led the horses in front of him with a tug of horses. The horses obeyed Xi Mo's orders and walked slowly along Xi Mo's instructions. Ruan Yesheng got used to the feeling of riding a horse in this slow walking, and when Xi Mo was in motion, he moved forward. Under Mo's guidance, practice different postures and movements.
Time seems to be slower than the horse's pace at the moment.
Ruan Yesheng hopes that it can be slower.
The training did not come to an end until noon, and the two had lunch in the building where they were resting and meeting guests. The training cost a lot, and Ruan Yesheng was already hungry. When the staff came to serve the food, she sat upright, sipping the red wine gracefully, and when she glanced sideways, she saw that the staff were all gone, and she immediately Pick up chopsticks.
It's just that the chopsticks were all empty on the plate, and he looked up at Xi Mo, who was on the opposite side, and stopped again.
The corner of Xi Mo's mouth twitched imperceptibly, but his face was still as always, and he said, "Eat whatever you want. The chefs here are all chosen by my father, and they taste very good."
"Didn't you tell me to pay attention to diet so as not to affect your figure?"
Xi Mo sneered: "It's so easy to be influenced, how can I stay in this circle?"
"That's what you said."
"I said."
Ruan Yesheng closed his palms gently, and the charm in his eyes seemed to be dripping with bright bad water: "Then I also want to eat charcoal-roasted chicken legs, sauce elbows, chocolate ice cream balls, and matcha mousse."
Each of these is a high-calorie food that the actresses who look at their bodies are talking about, Xi Mo silently watched Ruan Yesheng for a while, and said, "Yes. But only this time. You tell the staff. Well, the kitchen should be able to make charcoal-roasted chicken legs and sauce elbows, but they don't usually do this kind of dishes, and I don't know if they can make authentic ones. Matcha mousse and chocolate ice cream balls may not be ready today. But you can switch to other desserts.”
Ruan Yesheng didn't plan to eat those, but it was just a joke, and he didn't expect that Xi Mo would really agree to her. He was both happy and a little guilty, and said, "...Forget it."
"Why don't you want to eat?"
Ruan Yesheng casually said nonsense: "I can't eat it. Think about it. Later, a large plate of sauce elbows will be served, and the paparazzi will see it. Tomorrow's news will be 'shocked! The popular actress Xi Mo actually ignores her image and gnaws on it. Sauce elbows! 'Sauce elbows, this kind of bold and wild food does not match your temperament. The contrast of this style of painting is like, you are wearing a haute couture evening dress and expensive jewelry squatting on the side of the road and nibbling elbows, Do you think you can accept it?"
Xi Mo probably imagined what he looked like, his face suddenly sank as if struck by lightning, and he slowly shook his head.
Ruan Yesheng held back a smile.
"But there are no paparazzi here." Xi Mo said: "I said, they can't come in. Do you like to eat sauce elbows?"
"I like it. But I want to dance and I have to keep my body in shape, especially after I become an actor, the dietary requirements are even stricter, and I have never eaten this again." Ruan Yesheng's originally bright eyes seemed to dim a little: "My mom's sauce elbows are delicious."
Xi Mo didn't speak, he lowered his head and took a broccoli, and ate slowly for a long time.
Ruan Yesheng was accustomed to her refusal to say anything, and began to eat the dishes. After a while, she saw Xi Mo raise her head and look at him with a look that seemed to have hesitated for a long time before she made up her mind.
"Sauce elbow, is it really delicious?" Xi Mo looked complicated.
After a period of time, a huge and shiny sauce elbow was placed on the plate, and it occupied the center of the table with grandeur.
Comparing the two, the delicate dishes around are Concubine Xishi, and it is Zhang Fei Li Kui.
"Eat." Xi Mo gestured with his eyes.
"You eat first." Ruan Yesheng said.
"You eat first." Xi Mo frowned, without giving in: "You want to eat yourself."
"I didn't say I wanted to eat it later, you ordered it." Ruan Yesheng corrected her.
"You said it was delicious."
"I said it was delicious, but I didn't order it."
"You said you like it, I just ordered it."
Ruan Yesheng was unprepared and blushed: "..."
Her face blushed, and the roots of her ears that were covered by Xi Mo's hair were also inexplicably red: "..."
"...Really?" Ruan Yesheng whispered.
Xi Mo picked up the water glass, turned his face and took a sip. After a while, he turned around without speaking, and picked up the knife and fork to cut the sauce elbow.
"Sauce elbows are not like this." Ruan Yesheng's heart was beating wildly, but when she suddenly saw her gesture of going to cut the steak meticulously, she couldn't help laughing.
Xi Mo rarely showed a humble and studious look, and his voice was much lower: "Then how should I eat?"
"Chicken and eat."
Xi Mo: "..."

I will start writing the article after the detailed outline and ending are confirmed, so everyone can rest assured about the end of this matter, but the update speed will be very slow.
