"Yeah." Xiao Linglang nodded.

"You are so timid." Rao Shuang laughed.

Xiao Linglang did not refute, and reluctantly ate a lamb chop and drank half a bowl of light chicken soup with wolfberries.

After lunch, the two came out of the restaurant. Xiao Linglang took the initiative to ask to lead the horse. Rao Shuang raised his eyebrows, patted his horse, asked it to be obedient, and then followed Xiao Linglang.

Xiao Linglang excitedly took the reins and reached out to touch it very quickly but lightly.

"Tsk~" Rao Shuang said, "What's so strange about this?"

"It really listens to you." Xiao Linglang said to Rao Shuang, "It would be great if every horse was this obedient."

"I'm its owner. Animals with owners are naturally well-behaved. If you like it, I'll go back to the stable and pick out a docile one for you. My father has raised quite a few." Rao Shuang threw a candy and opened his mouth to take it.

As if she had missed a word, she glanced at Xiao Linglang, and they both said in unison: "Go back and let the Wolf Lord give it back to me (you)."

"I'm glad you understand." Rao Shuang touched his nose.

Xiao Linglang silently calculated in her heart that this trip seemed to have caused Tuoba Jin a lot of trouble.

In the afternoon, some young people of the Rong tribe would gather on the grassland to sing, dance and race horses.

Xiao Linglang was standing at the guardrail outside. After hearing a horn, Rao Shuang, dressed in red riding clothes, rushed out first, whip raised high, looking heroic.

As a colorful ball made of colorful silk strips was thrown down, everyone rushed to grab it. When it reached one person's hand, it was quickly snatched away by another person. Xiao Linglang watched helplessly as Rao Shuang had already caught the ball, but was robbed halfway by another person and rushed to the finish line first.

As soon as Rao Shuang came out, Xiao Linglang immediately went over holding up her skirt and said angrily, "Is this a horse race? It's clearly a fight, and you're still a girl."

While complaining, Xiao Linglang took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat off Rao Shuang.

Rao Shuang originally wanted to wipe it off with his sleeve, but seeing this, he blinked, stood still and let Xiao Linglang wipe it obediently.

"Of course it's horse racing, but the rules of the game have changed. If you are afraid of playing such a game, how can you be a warrior of Mobei?"

She lowered her head slightly and saw Xiao Linglang's brows were still furrowed, her eyes were full of worry. She pinched her cheek and said, "It's okay. They only beat me this time. I want to be the bravest girl in Mobei, Xiao Linglang."

In the distance, the air pressure around the man in black robe was getting lower and lower.

After a while, he sneered, looked aside, and said to the middle-aged man beside him who also had a gloomy face: "I didn't know that Lord Hexi stopped me because he wanted to marry me for his daughter."

"Wolf Lord, you are joking. I am sincerely considering you. Letting a person from Southern Liang be the queen of Mobei is... really inappropriate." He Ximu lowered his head and clasped his fists.

"Are you joking? I don't think so. Lord Hexi, why don't you look up and look at your daughter?"

Tuoba Jin had his hands behind his back, his face gloomy. When he saw Rao Shuang touching Xiao Linglang's face, he looked frivolous and put his arm around her waist, with a storm in his eyes.

The veins on He Ximu's forehead were throbbing violently. When Rao Shuang took advantage of Xiao Linglang's lowering her head to collect the handkerchief and picked her up, he gathered his strength, opened his voice, and said, "Rao Shuang!"

This voice was filled with anger.

Xiao Linglang and Rao Shuang looked over at the same time, and both of their faces fell.

"Wolf Lord!" Rao Shuang's eyes lit up, but his gaze did not linger on Tuoba Jin for long, instead he glanced behind him.

Tuoba Jin rode closer on horseback, his eyes dark and unclear, his tone flat.

"Put down my queen."

Rao Shuang then remembered that he was still teasing Xiao Linglang, and immediately put her down, whispering: "I was just teasing you, I didn't really ask you to go to the horse race, don't tell the Wolf Lord and my father, Queen."

This was the first time that Rao Shuang willingly called her queen, with a hint of pleading in his tone.

Xiao Linglang raised her eyes and looked towards the bearded man who was walking towards Tuoba Jin, staring at them fiercely with a dark face. She thought: No wonder Rao Shuang is afraid too, he is really fierce.

She also lowered her voice and said, "Sister, I know."

The whispers of the two fell into the ears of Tuoba Jin and Hexi Mu.

Tuoba Jin turned his head and glanced at He Ximu, whose face was ashen, with a half-smile, and said in a meaningful voice, "Lord He Xi."

The two braids next to Hexi's hair were almost broken by Rao Shuang's anger. He didn't even notice that this crazy girl had entered the palace for two consecutive days.

He even brought the Wolf Lord's woman out. Did she know that her father was threatening to die in order to persuade him? He kept criticizing this woman every day, but in the end, he turned around and found himself in trouble.

"Rao Shuang, come here!"

Under Tuoba Jin's deep gaze, he sulked at Rao Shuanghu with a frown on his face.

Rao Shuang was not scared, but Xiao Linglang, who was standing next to her, was shocked. She looked at Rao Shuang with concern.

Tuoba Jin pressed his itchy knuckles, jealousy flashed across his eyes, and he whispered, "Linglang."

Xiao Linglang's gaze fell on Tuoba Jin. Although the expression on his face was fine, she felt a tingling sensation in her heart.

"Wolf Lord."

She lowered her head, hiding the anxiety in her eyes.

Tuoba Jin turned over and dismounted, walked towards Xiao Linglang, and when he got closer, he glanced up and down at Rao Shuang, snorted and laughed, then stretched out his hand to Xiao Linglang, "How was the fun?"

Xiao Linglang felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at her. Biting her cheek, she glanced sideways at Rao Shuang beside her, and seeing that her expression was locked, she withdrew her gaze and looked at the hand in front of her.

Xiao Linglang rolled her eyes, stretched out her arm, and her fingertips quickly slid across Tuoba Jin's palm and landed on the bag in front of her.

With pink cheeks, she turned her head and said in a humming voice: "All these were bought by Sister Rao Shuang."

Tuoba Jin raised an eyebrow, the warmth that slid across his palm disappeared before it left any trace. He looked at the bulging bag embroidered with intricate patterns on her waist.

It looks like they had more than a little fun.

Tuoba Jin hooked his wrist slightly and locked Xiao Linglang with one hand. He moved his other hand from her bag to rub the back of her head. He glanced up and down at Rao Shuang who was wide-eyed over there again, "Please trouble Miss Hexi to take care of Linglang for me."

His voice softened, and he said to Xiao Linglang, "I'll go back and see what good things Linglang has taken a fancy to."

Rao Shuang was immersed in the joy of Tuoba Jin's appearance. Before the corners of her mouth were half raised with joy, she saw Tuoba Jin's eyes scanning her up and down.

What did the Wolf Lord mean? Did he sneer at her horse racing performance?

"Wolf Lord, I only lost this time, and you know my strength!" Rao Shuang was not convinced and stared at Tuoba Jin seriously.

He Ximu was standing aside, his face turning pale again, and he gritted his teeth helplessly, "Spare Shuang!"

"Dad! The Wolf Lord is questioning my strength. Here's my proof!" Rao Shuang came up to him and spoke very quickly. She quickly stood in front of Tuoba Jin. She also wanted to go to the battlefield in the future.

"You look a bit like a girl!" He Ximu quickly pulled Rao Shuang back.
