The vegetation rustled in the wind as Lin Wan scanned the surroundings and found nothing unusual.

“Honey, could it be that you have seen it wrongly?”

“I took a picture of him. I’ll show you later.”

Suddenly, there was movement in the bushes, as if someone was walking past there.

Lin Wan couldn’t stop Li Mu in time as he rushed over and shouted, “Who is it? If you have guts, show yourself! Can you still consider yourself a man if you keep hiding inside? Aren’t you smug? I am here now! Come on and fight me!”

Li Mu was shouting at the bushes as he casually picked up a thick tree branch and pushed open the bushes. With a loud squeak, a big squirrel jumped out and ran away desperately.

Lin Wan caught up with him and shouted anxiously, “What are you running for? There is no one there!”

“D*mn it! It’s just a squirrel,” Li Mu cursed softly. After that, he walked out of the bushes in disappointment and threw the thick tree branch in his hand far away!

“Bang. Crack. Crack …”

The tree branch hit a large tree, which startled the few magpies on the tree.

Lin Wan kicked her husband’s ass angrily and complained loudly, “Do you think you are very strong and that you can subdue bad guys with your strength? What if he has a knife? What if he has set a trap? Can you not be so impulsive?”

“I didn’t think so much at that time. I just wanted to catch him!”

“Haven’t you thought about me? What should I do if something happens to you?”

“I’m sorry, Honey. Don’t be angry. I’ll definitely stay calm next time!”

Seeing that her husband had begged for forgiveness, Lin Wan’s anger was slightly subsided. She was really scared out of her wits, not by the unfamiliar man, but by her husband.

Since the other party was coming for them, then they must be prepared beforehand. He might really be a killer. Although her husband was very brave, it was easy for him to fall into his trap if he was so impulsive.

If something really happens to him, how should she live?

“Honey, let’s go back. This place is too remote. It’s a bit scary!”

“You can only realize how scary it is now? Let’s go back!”

The couple went back on the same road they came. Not long after, they saw He Xiaoyu, Fang Qiang, and Du Xinzhu running over. The three of them took the wrong fork in the road when they were chasing after them. On their way back, they just happened to run into Li Mu and Lin Wan.

Seeing Li Mu coming out of the forest with a gloomy look on his face, He Xiaoyu asked anxiously, “Li Mu, what happened? Who were you chasing just now?”

“An unfamiliar man. Did you guys see him?”

The others shook their heads together. Li Mu picked up the camera, found the photo he took just now, pointed it out to everyone, and said, “Here, this is the man. He was hiding in the bushes at that time. Do any of you know him?”

The photo was blurry, and what was more, it was a side view. Therefore, it was impossible for them to make out the man’s facial features in the photo at all.

All of them shook their heads after seeing the people. He Xiaoyu looked at the screen and asked puzzledly, “No, I don’t know him. What’s wrong with him? Why did you chase after him?”

“When I was taking pictures for Lin Wan just now, this man kept staring at her and even made an offensive gesture at me. I felt that something was wrong, so I chased after him, but he managed to get away,” Li Mu explained.

“Brother Mu, are you too tense? Your wife is so beautiful, so it’s common to have a lot of people stare at her. That person may just be a tourist who has no ill intention at all,” Du Xinzhu said comfortingly.

“No ill intention? Then why did he make an obscene gesture at her?”

“Could it be that you have seen it wrongly? I think the street racing incident may have scared the h*ll out of you, so every bush and tree looks like an enemy to you. Don’t worry. The resort area is very safe. Nothing will happen here.”

“Well, you are right. Maybe I have seen it wrongly!” Li Mu didn’t want to continue to argue about this matter with them and casually echoed.

“Alright, you guys don’t have to worry about anything. Since you guys have come to my resort, I will definitely guarantee your safety. Li Mu, how about going horseback hunting?” Fang Qiang suggested from the side.

“Horseback hunting? Is here this kind of activity?” Li Mu asked in surprise.

“Yes! There is a mountain called Longevity Peak not far from here, and there is a pasture at the foot of the mountain. Tourists can enjoy horseback archery and rabbit hunting there. What do you think? Are you interested?”

“Yes, yes, Li Mu. Let’s go there together!” He Xiaoyu exclaimed happily.

“Horseback archery?” Li Mu asked in a slightly worried tone, “Who has practiced horseback archery before? It’s too dangerous. The probability of hitting someone is higher than hitting a rabbit, right?”

“Ha-ha!” Fang Qiang and Du Xinzhu burst out laughing.

Du Xinzhu smiled and explained, “Brother Mu, it’s not that kind of rabbit that eats grass. The so-called rabbits are actually fixed or moving targets. The arrows are also foam-tipped, so they are not dangerous at all.”

If that was the case, there was nothing to worry about anymore. Li Mu and the others gladly accepted his invitation. The group went back to the wooden house inn first, got in the resort car, and headed to the hunting ground.

On the right-hand side at the entrance of the hunting area, there was a meadow where many horses were kept in captivity. All the horses were fat, healthy, and well-proportioned. They were obviously good horses.

There were already service staff waiting for them there. They brought them five sturdy horses, and Li Mu chose a big black horse while Lin Wan chose a white one. However, unexpectedly, He Xiaoyu chose a big patchy horse, which made Li Mu burst into laughter.

“Xiaoyu, this horse is the best. I thought it was a milk cow when I saw it from afar. A beautiful woman with a good horse …”

Upon feeling a chill emanating from her, Li Mu immediately shut his mouth up alertly.

“Carry on. Why did you stop? Lin Wan, do you want to change with me?”

“No, just ride your milk cow!” Lin Wan immediately rejected and then gave her husband a few hard pinches on his waist.

“Everyone, let’s mount the horse!” Fang Qiang shouted politely.

Everyone mounted their horses one after another. Li Mu habitually stepped on his right foot and crossed beautifully over it with his left foot. As soon as he sat down, he immediately saw a big back butt and a black swishing tail.

Huh? What was going on? He hurriedly looked back and found that the horse head was behind him. The horse had also turned to look at him.

Seeing that, everyone burst out laughing, especially He Xiaoyu, who had laughed the loudest.

Feeling extremely embarrassed, Li Mu wanted to turn his body around as quickly as possible. He was too embarrassed to get off the horse and get on again, so he planned to do a Thomas flair and complete the turn on the saddle.

He raised his legs, exerted strength on his arms, and turned himself around. The horse was startled by his sudden movement and moved a few steps forward.

This immediately caused Li Mu to fall off the horse, landing on all fours on the ground. Everyone screamed and quickly dismounted to help him up. However, he stood up, gritted his teeth, and waved his hand at them.

He mounted the horse once again, and this time, he didn’t get on the wrong side again. After sitting firmly on the horse, he cued it to move forward with his head bowed low. He originally wanted to brag to his wife and He Xiaoyu about his horse-riding skills. He could forget about it now. It was already a good thing if they didn’t laugh at him for the rest of their life. There was nothing for him to brag about now.

Lin Wan immediately rode over and walked side by side with him.

This hunting area was in the completion stage, so it had not officially opened yet. There were no other tourists inside besides them.

All the horses they rode had received special training, so they were very docile. As long as the rider didn’t use a whip to hit them hard, they would only trot slowly.

As the two horses moved forward slowly side by side, Li Mu begged in a low voice, “You are not allowed to laugh at me!”

“Can I laugh when there is no one around?” Lin Wan bargained.

“Yes, you can laugh as much as you want when there is no one around,” Li Mu said helplessly.

“Okay!” Lin Wan agreed, pursing her lips tightly while her body trembled slightly.

At this moment, He Xiaoyu was discussing something with the service staff. After that person gave her a nod, He Xiaoyu thanked him and hurriedly rode over.

“Li Mu, how about having a race?” He Xiaoyu said in a provoking manner.

“No, it’s too dangerous. He Xiaoyu, can you behave yourself?” Lin Wan said with a frown.

“There is nothing dangerous about it. Don’t worry. I won’t let you fall off the horse! Li Mu, if you really don’t want to, you can just admit defeat!”

He Xiaoyu smiled boldly and urged Li Mu, “What do you think? Li Mu, do you want to take this opportunity to wash away your previous shame? Do you dare to accept my challenge?”

There was a trace of cunning and scheming flashing across He Xiaoyu’s eyes.

Facing He Xiaoyu’s challenge, Li Mu hesitated.

The main thing racing with her was a no-win situation. It was not honorable for him to win, but it was embarrassing for him to lose.

However, if he still didn’t dare to accept the challenge after hearing He Xiaoyu’s words, then he couldn’t be called a man.

Li Mu replied loudly, “Okay! Let’s have a race. You will set the rules!”

Lin Wan stretched out her hand to grab Li Mu’s rein and said unhappily, “Honey, stop playing around. You are not allowed to race!”

Li Mu smiled and said, “It’s okay. This is not my first time riding a horse. What is there to be afraid of?”

“If this is not your first time, then why did you get on the wrong side of the horse?”

Li Mu blushed with embarrassment, sat upright, and defended, “Humans are bound to make mistakes sometimes. I did that on purpose just to amuse you guys. Don’t think that I don’t know how to ride a horse!”

Du Xinzhu added, “Lin Wan, just let them have a race. I will be their referee. Don’t worry. These horses are very docile. There won’t be any danger.”

Lin Wan still wanted to insist but couldn’t resist everyone’s pleas. In the end, she had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Li Mu and He Xiaoyu came to the starting line side by side.

He Xiaoyu glanced in the distance, tilted her head, and said, “Li Mu, let’s run to the opposite side of the woods. Whoever reaches first will win. What do you think? The rules are simple, right?”

“Okay, no problem. Whoever gets there first will win!” Li Mu responded.

“Alright, are you ready, Li Mu?” He Xiaoyu asked Li Mu arrogantly.

“Yes, I am ready!” Li Mu lowered his body, tightened his grip on the rein, and looked forward.

He Xiaoyu gave Du Xinzhu a signal, and the latter shouted, “On your mark! Ready, set, go!”

The two yelled at the same time and hit the horses’ butts with their whips. The two horses dashed out like quick arrows, and Du Xinzhu rode a horse and chased after them.

He Xiaoyu had a good start at the race. The patchy horse had explosive speed and power and soon overtook half of its body. Li Mu, who was unwilling to be lagged behind, clamped his legs tight around the horse’s belly, waved his horsewhip, and lashed it hard on the horse’s butt.

The black horse neighed and galloped forward at full speed.

Soon, Li Mu caught up with He Xiaoyu.

Upon seeing her senior fellow had caught up with her, He Xiaoyu nervously whipped the horse again.

The two of them raced against each other, and after a while, they disappeared from Lin Wan and Fang Qiang’s sight.

Li Mu had never experienced this kind of feeling before. Riding a galloping horse gave him a sense of exhilaration and freedom.

Listening to the sound of the wind whistling in his ears and watching the passing trees on both sides, the gloom in his heart disappeared in an instant.

Looking out from the corner of his eye, He Xiaoyu was in hot pursuit of him. Li Mu couldn’t help but smile. He Xiaoyu was still as competitive as ever. She was determined to win him no matter what.

However, he can’t let her win today. Firstly, he wanted to wash away his previous shame, and secondly, he couldn’t ruin his image in front of his wife.

He Xiaoyu gradually fell behind. She was yelling and screaming right behind Li Mu. Whenever she was about to catch up with him, she would secretly tighten her grip on the reins. However, in the eyes of outsiders, no matter how hard she tried, she still couldn’t catch up with her senior fellow.

Li Mu got to the finish line first. Holding on to the reins, he was about to brag to his junior fellow. Whoosh! A sharp arrow flew past him, and with a thud, it landed in the tree truck beside him. l
