105: Chapter 105 Lim Yoona's Little Thoughts

After Niu Dehua finished speaking, everyone exchanged polite greetings, and he made a "please" gesture.

He said with a smile, "BOSS, ladies, the living area is just up on the gentle slope ahead. It'll take a few minutes by car, or you can go by horseback; Alice and the others will help keep an eye on things."

He pointed toward the sightseeing car, then glanced at the fine horses beside Alice, a knowing smile in his eyes.

Liu Zijun turned to look at the girls behind him, but just as he was about to ask, Alice had already flipped onto a horse, holding the reins of two brown horses with glossy coats.

She looked down from her horse and laughed, "Beautiful ladies, the horses of Moon Bay are famous for being both gentle and vigorous. Would you like to try racing against the ranch wind?"

Her voice was crisp and bright, and she spoke slowly; combined with the translations from Kim Ji-yeon and Liu Zijun, everyone understood quickly.

When Im Yoona heard what Liu Zijun said, her eyes instantly lit up, and she subconsciously gripped the corner of her clothes.

A few days ago, Choi Sulli had sent a photo of herself and Liu Zijun riding horses by the sea to their three-person group chat.

In the photo, Liu Zijun was steadily protecting Sulli as the two faced the sunset; she had envied that image for a long time.

Looking at the tall, majestic horses before her now, and then at the tall, upright figure of Liu Zijun beside her, her heart couldn't help but speed up. She gazed at him with burning eyes, her uncontrollable anticipation nearly overflowing.

Son Ye-jin's eyes also widened slightly, a hint of longing flashing through them; she was already itching to try.

But she glanced at Im Yoona's unconcealed anticipation, then at the eager Choi Sulli beside her. She gently pulled Choi Sulli's hand and smiled, "Sulli, I'm a bit tired. Let's take the sightseeing car over, shall we? Let Yoona and Ji-Jun have a good experience."

Choi Sulli was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what was happening and gave Son Ye-jin a sweet smile.

"Sure! Yejin Unnie! I also happen to want to see the ranch scenery with you."

She knew about Im Yoona's little schemes, and she knew she received the most love from Liu Zijun. Yejin Unnie always watched silently from the back, while this Yoona Unnie had always been in a state of combat readiness.

He had been monopolized by her lately; it was time to let her spend some quality time alone with oppa.

Since she had already accepted the fact that oppa had more than one girlfriend, she had to be more considerate of him.

Seeing this, Kim Ji-yeon also smiled and followed their lead, saying, "I'll accompany you. I can tell you about the ranch facilities on the way."

These two were future 'Big Boss Ladies,' after all; she had to serve them well.

Seeing the situation, Alice smiled and handed the reins of one of the brown horses to Liu Zijun, saying, "This horse has a very gentle temperament, so I'll leave it to you, BOSS."

On the other side, the members of f(x) also couldn't contain their excitement.

Victoria Song had been talking about wanting to experience ranch life and be a farm owner for a while now.

Having ridden horses by the sea earlier, she had some experience. Looking at the majestic horses before her, which were much more spirited than those provided by the production crew, her eyes were full of excitement.

Amber Liu and Luna also nodded one after another. With the help of the cowboys, they each chose a horse they liked and carefully mounted up.

Krystal Jung hesitated for a few seconds before also mounting a horse with the assistance of a Maori cowboy, a hint of anticipation appearing on her cool face.

"Hold onto the saddle, lean forward slightly, and just sit tight."

After helping Im Yoona onto the horse, Liu Zijun spoke in a gentle tone.

He followed by mounting the horse, sitting behind Im Yoona. He reached his arms under her armpits to hold the reins, his chest pressed firmly against her back.

He leaned in and whispered tenderly in her ear, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Im Yoona nodded vigorously. Feeling the warmth by her ear, her face turned slightly red. She gripped the saddle handle tightly, her eyes showing a trace of nervousness but even more excitement.

With a light squeeze of her legs against the horse's flanks, the horse moved forward, gradually picking up speed.

This horse was indeed a fine steed.

The wind whistled past her ears, carrying the fresh scent of grass and soil. Im Yoona couldn't help but open her arms, savoring the taste of freedom.

Then she leaned back slightly, nestling herself into Liu Zijun's embrace. Feeling his heartbeat and body temperature, her small face couldn't help but flush.

With the jolting of the horse, she could also feel the man's changes, which made her breathing suddenly become a bit hurried.

Yet she was reluctant to move away, instead leaning in even closer.

She thought secretly to herself that she definitely couldn't fall behind this time. Sulli and Yejin Unnie had already gone that far with oppa; she couldn't show any weakness either.

Im Yoona turned her head to look at Liu Zijun, her eyes sparkling with light.

"Oppa, can we go a little faster?"

Liu Zijun nodded with a smile and exerted pressure with his legs again. The horse beneath them understood and accelerated, galloping toward the distant grassland and leaving the others far behind.

The wind howled, and Im Yoona's laughter was crisp and pleasant.

She took out her phone, reached back to wrap an arm around Liu Zijun's neck, flashed a brilliant smile at the camera, and pressed the shutter button.

In the photo, she was nestled in Liu Zijun's arms, her eyes full of happiness. Behind them was the endless green grassland, with sunlight spilling over them, warm and dazzling.

Looking at her happy expression, a gentle smile curved on Liu Zijun's lips. He tightened his arms, holding her even closer.

He lowered his head and asked in her ear, "Do you like it here?"

Im Yoona nodded vigorously and turned her head to give him a kiss on the cheek.

"I like it! I love it so much!"

"Thank you, oppa, for bringing me to such a beautiful place."

Seeing her turn back, Liu Zijun brought the horse to a stop. He couldn't resist pinching her chin and kissing her fiercely.

Then he whispered softly in her ear, "Yoona! Do you want to try it on the horse?"

Im Yoona's eyes instantly went round. She pushed him away hard, her face glowing bright red.

"Oppa! You're so bad!"

But then she thought of something, turned back again to kiss Liu Zijun, and said, "Oppa! Don't ignore me again this time."

Liu Zijun burst into laughter and nodded.

The two galloped across the grassland for a while before slowly turning around to head toward the living area.

From a distance, several well-arranged luxury villas could be seen. Their white walls and dark roofs were nestled among lush green trees and flowers, with a winding stream flowing nearby; the scenery was breathtakingly beautiful.

Im Yoona couldn't help but exclaim in wonder, "Wow! This place is just too beautiful!"

The villa complex was surrounded by meticulously manicured lawns dotted with various flowers. In the distance, there was a small man-made lake with water so clear you could see the bottom, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and the silhouettes of the villas.

Beside the lake was a small vegetable garden with some common vegetables growing inside.

Not far away, herds of Angus cattle were grazing in the pasture area, along with flocks of sheep.

Sheepdogs could even be seen leisurely roaming with the cowboys.
