Chapter 314: Karuizawa in August (9)
Patting the horse's neck, Toru Watanabe turned over and rode on it.
When riding a horse, people will subconsciously raise their heads, chests, and backs.
Some parents like to let their children learn horse riding in order to shape their children's beautiful bodies, and also to train their courage.
Toru Watanabe originally had a good physique, and now he is sitting on a horse in a knight's outfit, with a noble and handsome temperament, and can be called a real-life Prince Charming.
The ladies couldn't take their eyes off him, their gazes moving back and forth between Watanabe Toru's handsome face, broad shoulders, thin waist and long legs.
Watanabe Toru didn't care about that.
Sitting on the tall horse, he always felt a sense of freedom, as if life no longer needed any disguise.
Just pull the reins and you can gallop around the world.
"It's tamed so quickly?" Mrs. Kiyono was the first to come to her senses. Her fair face beneath her delicate short hair showed a hint of surprise.
"Training horses, riding horses, as long as you want to learn, you can learn anything." Watanabe looked down at them, "I was born to ride on everyone's head."
The people present were stunned for a moment, unable to react for a moment because of the natural and self-confidence in his words.
The only exception is Qingye Rin.
"Watanabe-san," she called out with a smile, "please restrain yourself and don't reveal your true nature."
"How can a young person not be arrogant? You usually claim to be the cutest person in the world, but I didn't say anything about you, but you talked about me instead." Watanabe Toru said with dissatisfaction and smiled.
Qingye Rin glared at him unhappily, then smiled in tacit understanding.
Watanabe Toru pointed his whip at them and said, "Stand back a little and take a picture of your young master Watanabe."
"Very arrogant." Kujo Miki came back to her senses and said with a smile.
"Travel photos, travel photos, I'm going to take them back to show off." Watanabe Toru immediately admitted defeat.
The two ladies didn't care at all. They stepped back smiling and took pictures of Watanabe Toru with their mobile phones.
"Watanabe-kun," Mrs. Kujo instructed, "pose as you did just now. You look very handsome."
"After taking the photos, I will send them to the group. I want to save the best one." Toru Watanabe looked straight ahead, his expression deliberately calm so that the photo would not appear to be posed.
After taking two pictures in this pose, he squeezed the horse's belly and the horse took steps forward with a clatter.
The horse is tall, with long limbs. It holds its head high when walking, and its steps are brisk and elastic, just like a model, making Watanabe Toru on horseback look even more aristocratic.
"Where is your young master!" Mrs. Qingye couldn't help but praise.
"Watanabe-kun, I'm not lying to you, you really were my ideal type when I was seventeen." Mrs. Kujo said with a smile.
The two young ladies also took out their cell phones to take pictures of him.
"I am the ideal type of all seventeen-year-old women, but I am Miki, who is one month away from seventeen," said Toru Watanabe.
"It will be mine by the end of the year." Qingye Rin said calmly.
Miki Kujo put down her phone and turned to look at her.
Before Kujo Miki could speak, the war broke out, and Watanabe Toru said quickly:
"You guys should go . It's boring for me to ride alone."
"Didn't you ask us to take the photo?" Mrs. Kiyono said coquettishly like a girl.
"That was to divert your attention. I was too proud of myself on the horse just now and said something immature. I'm embarrassed now."
"What is Chuuni?" Mrs. Kujo asked curiously.
"That's something you'd only hear in your second year of middle school. Well, my dear Maki-sama, let's go riding!"
After a while, the four of them rode on the horses kept at Karuizawa Horse Farm.
Mrs. Kujo is a black English Thoroughbred, Mrs. Kiyono is a brown Arabian;
Kiyono Rin rides a white Hanoverian horse, and Kujo Miki rides a white Akhal-Tekin, also known as the Ferghana horse.
Each one is extremely handsome and worth hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars.
"Let's see who's faster!" As she said that, Mrs. Jiujo squeezed the horse's belly with her long legs and rushed out.
Toru Watanabe was sure that when Kujo Maki was young, she was definitely a lively and naughty (spicy and competitive) girl.
Whether driving or riding a horse, her extraordinary courage and bravery can be seen.
Such a person, once sitting at the head of the Japanese-style room, will become the majestic head of the Kujo family.
"Ah, he ran away again!" Mrs. Qingye whipped her horsewhip and chased after him.
"Shall we three compete too?" Toru Watanabe pulled the reins, rode his horse and stood on the same starting line with the two young ladies.
"Okay!" responded the two heroic and beautiful girls.
After that, the game started immediately.
The horse tightened its muscles, raised its four hooves, and rushed forward - at this moment, this was its entire mission.
Toru Watanabe felt the rhythm of the horse and the tension of its muscles.
Speed became everything, the wind blew in my face, bringing with it the most natural and refreshing breath of the Karuizawa Plateau.
Watanabe Toru felt happy and forgot all his worries.
He raised his whip, pointed to the sky, and shouted wildly:
"I am the king of the world!"
As if sensing his lofty ambition, the horse under him ran faster and faster, like a sharp arrow.
Miki Kujo and Rin Kiyono followed him closely on their horses.
On the racecourse, people who were walking slowly, trotting, or galloping on horseback were overtaken by them one by one.
The three of them were able to attract attention just by their outstanding looks. Now, dressed in knight costumes, they looked heroic and had superb riding skills. For a moment, they became the focus of the entire horse farm.
Floating white clouds and blue sky;
Straight and wide grassland, with forest-like green larch trees on both sides.
They galloped on horseback through such scenery.
The first one to arrive at the destination was Mrs. Kujo who had escaped secretly.
Everyone's horse is good, and even if Watanabe Toru could command the horse, he couldn't make it push its limit.
One solution would be to simply order her horse to stop.
"Haha, I'm still number one this year!" Kujo Maki held her head high and chest out, and with her fair, young skin, she seemed to have really returned to the age of twenty.
"Because you sneak away every year." Mrs. Kiyono laughed.
"Winning is winning, and losers should not always make excuses for themselves."
"He won by dirty tricks, but what is his real ability?"
"Better than you anyway."
"How shameless! Wait until you stop sneaking away!"
The two ladies were talking happily, just like Watanabe Toru forgot himself when he got on his horse. Now they also let go of their identities and started bickering with each other.
"Just now I heard someone shouting that he is the king of the world?" Kujo Maki rode his horse up to Watanabe Toru and the other two.
"What I shouted was: Kujo Maki is the king of the world," said Toru Watanabe.
Kujo Maki raised her whip and pointed at Watanabe Toru: "The Kujo family is yours."
"Did you hear that? Be a good boy next time." Toru Watanabe turned his head and said to Miki Kujo.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing, Meiji, you are the second king in the world."
"Watanabe-kun." Kiyono Yuuko's voice was soft and threatening.
"Well, since Mrs. Kujo sneaked away, you are the uncrowned king of the world."
"You're really good at talking." Mrs. Qingye nodded with satisfaction.
"What about me?" Everyone was in a good mood because of the galloping horses, and Kiyono Rin also joined in this joyful drama of "persecution" of Watanabe Toru.
"No, this question is too difficult. Let's change it." Watanabe Toru said with a smile.
"That's difficult too. I have to go to morning class with Xiaolian tomorrow." Qingye Rin also answered with a smile.
“That won’t work either.”
"Then go back to kindergarten." Her tone was particularly melodious, as if she was about to sing a song.
The five of them rode their horses, strolling slowly through the grassland, forest, and riverside, sometimes going hand in hand, sometimes walking in a staggered manner, chatting and laughing all the way.
"Watanabe-kun." Mrs. Kiyono slowed down the horse and rode at the same level as Watanabe Toru.
"Um?"
"Is this horse going to be kept in Tokyo, or in Karuizawa?"
"Karuizawa," Toru Watanabe replied. "I come here every summer to visit. I don't have that much time in Tokyo."
"Then I'll buy you another one in Tokyo on your birthday next year," Mrs. Kiyono said. "By the way, give your horse a name."
"King of the world." Toru Watanabe patted the horse's neck.
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Kujo slowed down the horse and squeezed Watanabe Toru with Mrs. Kiyono.
"I really don't mean anything else." Watanabe Toru kicked his horse's belly and caught up with the two young ladies.
"Still want to run!" Mrs. Kujo pulled the reins and chased after him.
"I really don't mean anything else!" Watanabe Toru ran away quickly.
A slow horse chase ensued, with three other people joining in.
At the end, the five people bathed their horses with hoses and fed them carrots, temporarily cultivating the relationship between the owners and the horses.
After riding a horse for a whole day, Watanabe Toru was fine, but the ladies did have some sore buttocks.
But you couldn't tell from their appearance, as they were well-mannered and looked like elegant upper-class Tokyo people.
On the way back to the villa, they arrived at a deserted forest. Seven or eight jays flew over the green branches above their heads, and they began to talk about this matter.
"I haven't ridden for a long time, and my butt hurts." Mrs. Kujo touched her soft butt through her clothes.
"I will feel uncomfortable tomorrow. My back and waist will ache, and maybe my hips will also ache, and I won't be able to go down the stairs." Mrs. Qingye is worried about more things.
"Just ride more often." Miki Kujo recovered quickly, looking like she was working very hard.
On this quiet afternoon, only Watanabe Toru and Kiyono Rin did not join in the conversation.
Watanabe Toru was inconvenienced and pretended not to hear, but Kiyono Rin...
That night, the two ladies and Kiyono Rin took a long hot bath and went to bed early.
In the room of Toru Watanabe and Miki Kujo, the big bed replaced the lawn in the daytime and served as the horse farm.
"How did you tame the horse today?"
"I can command creatures with lower intelligence." Toru Watanabe caressed her delicate waist and couldn't let go.
"What's going on?"
"It's useless. You can only command animals, not humans, unless they are mentally retarded."
Miki Kujo's gorgeous long hair is as dark as the night, like the waves of the sea.
After a while, she gasped and said, "Who else knows about this?"
"Besides you, it's me."
"Don't tell anyone." Kujo Miki remembered something, "I shouldn't have told mother about you. It's enough for the two of us to know."
"Let the past be the past. Just like me at that time, I couldn't tell you these things, but now I have told you everything I can."
Miki Kujo turned over and got off the horse and lay down.
"Come here, I'll lie down and rest for a while." She said lazily.
After traveling back and forth between the starting line and the destination three times, I finally took a break.
They lay together and whispered.
"If you had abilities like yours in ancient times, you could tame wild beasts and maybe become an emperor," said Kujo Miki.
When she got to bed, she was so innocent and cute.
"Modern times are fine too." Watanabe Toru hugged her, feeling the warmth between their skin.
"What's the use in modern times, opening a zoo or a circus?"
"Maybe his abilities have grown? He can command people with normal intelligence."
“Maybe you already have this ability.”
"That would be nice."
"I seriously suspect that you secretly ordered me, otherwise why would I love you so much."
"I still doubt you, secretly ordering me."
"Then how can your abilities evolve?"
"Instead of hoping for it to evolve, it's better to hope that I can develop a zombie virus that will turn 80% of humans into zombies, and then control the zombies and rule the remaining 20%."
He stroked Kujo Miki's hair and continued:
"And the remaining 20% will live a happy life. The zombies will do all the dirty work. There will be no wars, and there will be plenty of resources. Humans just need to enjoy themselves. By integrating global resources, we may be able to develop interstellar civilization."
"When will it be implemented? I will fund the construction of the laboratory." Miki Kujo propped up her upper body and asked him.
"I have a better idea."
"What is the solution?"
"I'm telling you in secret, don't let anyone else hear it." Toru Watanabe pulled Kujo Miki into his arms and covered her with a blanket.
He pretended to lower his voice and said, "I plan to start studying artificial intelligence in college and develop black technology. By then, the whole world will belong to us two."
"Can you do it?"
"You look down on science students? I can even research the zombie virus! Then I can research holographic projection, such as Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokémon. I can buy the copyright of the games and make money with holographic projection."
"I'm telling you, how can you make money by ruling the world? I think you just want to have fun."
"It takes money to rule the world."
The two of them chatting aimlessly is a daily routine in bed.
The next day, except for the two of them and Xiaolian, everyone else started to suffer from back pain.
"We're going out to have fun! We're going to check out the concert at the Karuizawa Children's School!"
"Did you bring your cell phone, wallet, and water?" asked Toru Watanabe.
Xiaolian checked the small bag and large water bottle on her shoulder: "I brought them!"
After eight o'clock, Xiaolian rode her children's bicycle, couldn't wait to leave the villa and disappeared into the woods.
After Xiaolian left, Qingye Rin found a hammock and tied it to the two chestnut trees in front of the door.
She endured the pain in her body and climbed up with difficulty, and spent the whole morning reading inside.
Because the two ladies were in so much pain that they didn't want to stand up, lunch was prepared by Toru Watanabe and Miki Kujo.
Toru Watanabe brought a large oven and placed it in the yard. The charcoal fire under the oven was burning brightly, and lamb legs, lamb chops, and some simple vegetables were roasting in the oven.
While the baking was going on, the two ladies sat in their chairs, drinking brandy merrily.
After nearly an hour, it was baked.
It was fragrant, crispy and tender. He used a knife to cut the meat along the leg bone and sprinkled it with cumin and other seasonings. He personally served it to the two ladies and Miss Qingye.
The two ladies chewed each piece in their mouths and enjoyed it very much.
He clinked his glasses together in satisfaction, and the melodious sound of the glasses echoed in the woods.
Qingye Rin was lying in a hammock, holding a plate, looking at the green shade and sunshine. She was happily swinging in the hammock while eating grilled meat, vegetables and fruits with a knife and fork. She felt indescribably comfortable.
After finishing eating, he put the knife and fork on the plate and asked Watanabe Toru to take it back.
She put the book on her stomach, which was still flat after eating, closed her eyes and began to take a nap.
They leisurely enjoyed every day of August, and Toru Watanabe occasionally thought about "The Young Lady's Reconciliation Plan".
