Transmigrating to the 80s to Become Stepmom to Five Bigwigs

Chapter 296: The Surprise Ji Buwang Prepared

The next day, Shao Dong and Mu Han went to work. Ji Buwang fetched Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei directly from the production team.

Ji Buwang didn’t say where he was taking them along the way, making it seem mysterious. When they arrived at their destination, they realized that not only had they never been there before, but it was also a surprise—a private racecourse.

“What do you think? You’re surprised, right?” Ji Buwang pointed at the racecourse. “Wouldn’t you have regretted it if you hadn’t come?”

What a pleasant surprise. She really would have regretted it if she hadn’t come because Little Bei wanted to learn how to ride a horse. Mu Jingzhe was also very interested.

Little Bei wanted to learn how to ride a horse because she had received a relevant script previously. This one was about a period drama. The characters in it were quite good, but the actors had to know how to ride a horse.

Although there could be stunt doubles for the riding scenes, it was relatively difficult to find stunt doubles for children. More importantly, some directors were unwilling to use stunt doubles.

It was because of this script that Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei felt that she had to learn how to ride a horse. This way, when she encountered such scenes in the future, they wouldn’t have to worry. Ji Buwang had finally drawn inspiration from their conversation.

This was also the reason Mu Jingzhe couldn’t refuse Ji Buwang’s surprise. Little Bei could learn to ride a horse, and Ji Buwang could take this chance to interact with Mu Jingzhe. It was a win-win situation.

“Let’s go. Let’s relax today.” Ji Buwang led Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei in. “That’s the horse corral, and that’s the venue.”

Ji Buwang led Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei to the horse corral to take a look. There weren’t many horses, but the corral was clean and the horses were energetic.

In the past, Mu Jingzhe had only ridden twice under someone else’s guidance in one of those scenic areas. Both times, the horse had been walking, and the price had been extremely expensive. As for the rest, she had never really experienced it. After all, riding a horse wasn’t cheap.

However, there was no need to worry about the fees this time. The owner of the horse farm was Ji Buwang’s friend. Usually, they had to make an appointment for business. The owner had mainly started this business due to their love of horses and riding.

It was quite hot in the city, but it was much better over here on the horse farm. There were many trees, so the horse track, which was planted with them, was quite cool.

Besides, horseback riding wasn’t as particular in this era as in the modern era. It’d be fine as long as one’s clothes were suitable for exercising. Mu Jingzhe happened to be wearing pants and comfortable clothes, so she didn’t need to change. On the other hand, it wasn’t appropriate for her to wear sandals.

Fortunately, Ji Buwang was prepared. He took out the shoes he had prepared beforehand. “These are for you and Little Bei. Don’t worry, they’re new.”

Other than the shoes, there was also a hat. “You have to wear a hat too. It’s meant to protect your safety.”

The hat he gave to Mu Jingzhe was adult-sized, while Little Bei’s hat was for children. It was one size smaller. Both had been prepared in advance and were brand-new.

“Thank you for going through all this trouble.”

“There’s no need to be so polite.” Ji Buwang waved his hand. “Get up and try walking. Check if the shoes fit your feet. If they don’t, change into another pair.”

Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei took a few steps. “They fit quite well.”

“That’s good. I’ll change too.” Ji Buwang heaved a sigh of relief.

Ji Buwang used to come here to ride a horse, so his friend had kept his riding outfit. His clothes were a complete set.

Ji Buwang was quite fast and came out very quickly. After changing into his riding attire, he showed Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei how to get on the horse. He was handsome and agile, perfectly transforming into a Prince Charming in the process.

Besides, Ji Buwang was riding a white horse, which perfectly matched his status as Prince Charming.

Mu Jingzhe and Little Bei looked at Ji Buwang with similar expressions and forgot to speak for a moment.

“Did you see it clearly?”

“I saw it clearly.” Ji Buwang’s question finally brought Mu Jingzhe back to her senses.

“Alright, come up and try.” While Ji Buwang was dismounting, Little Bei whispered to Mu Jingzhe, “Mommy, is Teacher Ji Prince Charming? When I grow up, I want to marry Prince Charming too.”

“He’s indeed Prince Charming.” Mu Jingzhe nodded. action

“Mommy, Teacher Ji likes you. You should marry Teacher Ji in the future too. If you don’t, I’ll marry Teacher Ji when I grow up.” Little Bei had calculated it very well.

Mu Jingzhe: “…”

Both mother and daughter were hanging themselves from the same tree[1].

Ji Buwang happened to hear Little Bei’s last sentence. “Little Bei wants to marry me? Did I hear that wrong?”

“No.” Little Bei shook her head. “Teacher Ji, can you wait for me to grow up? Can you remain like this and wait for me to grow up?”

“Of course not. I’ll have grown old by the time you grow up.” Ji Buwang laughed.

Little Bei was a little regretful. “That’s too bad. But Teacher Ji, you’ll definitely look just as good when you’re old.”

“Of course. But why do you want to marry me?”

“Because you’re Prince Charming. If Mommy doesn’t marry you, I’ll marry you.”

Ji Buwang laughed out loud. “I’m really honored. But Little Bei, you definitely won’t have the chance. Because your mother will marry me.”

Ji Buwang pulled Little Bei over and whispered to her, “Little Bei, if your mother marries me, I’ll definitely be responsible for finding you another Prince Charming, one better than me, when you grow up. But that’s provided that you help me.”

“Really?” Little Bei giggled.

“Really.” Ji Buwang stretched out his hand. “If you don’t believe me, pinky swear.”

“Okay.” Little Bei was a little tempted, so she decided to pinky swear.

Mu Jingzhe: “Is it nice of you guys to whisper in front of me? What are you talking about?”

“It’s a secret.” Ji Buwang wouldn’t say that he had bribed Little Bei with the promise of a Prince Charming and asked her to help him.

“Let’s not tell Mommy for now.” Little Bei also maintained an air of mystery.

“Alright, now which one of you wants to learn how to ride a horse first? I’ll help you hold the reins.”

“Mommy. Teacher Ji, teach Mommy first,” Little Bei immediately said.

“Alright, Jingzhe, you go first.” Ji Buwang gave Little Bei a grateful look.

Just as he finished speaking, a staff member led a very small horse over. When Little Bei saw this, she exclaimed and ran over.

“I like it.”

Little Bei spoke to the staff member briefly before saying to Mu Jingzhe, “Mommy, learn from Teacher Ji. I’ll learn from this older brother. He’s very impressive.”

Then, she gave Ji Buwang a knowing look. Ji Buwang smiled at her. This child was too clever.

However, Ji Buwang still came over personally. He checked the pony and reminded the staff, “Safety is important. You must be careful and teach her well.”

The staff member who would teach Little Bei was a professional. After Ji Buwang reminded her, he told Mu Jingzhe, “Don’t worry, you don’t have to keep staring at Little Bei. Learn from me first.”

Just like that, Ji Buwang became Mu Jingzhe’s horse-riding instructor. He was patient and explained things clearly, and the white horse was strong and gentle.

After Ji Buwang explained, Mu Jingzhe successfully got on the horse. Then, Ji Buwang held the horse and let her try riding it.

The feeling of riding a horse was very intriguing. Anyway, Mu Jingzhe quite liked it. After two rounds, Mu Jingzhe felt like running.

Ji Buwang asked her to come down and rest for a while. Then, he brought a horse over and followed Mu Jingzhe, letting the horse run.

“Don’t worry. Relax. If anything happens, I’ll pull the horse and catch you.”

Ji Buwang gave Mu Jingzhe a great sense of security while riding next to her.
