Li Hua bit her bottom lip and, after hesitating, she held Lóng Wei's hand. She turned to face the horse when Lóng Wei came to her side and brought her hand close to the horse's face. "You are not supposed to act weirdly, else it may scare this horse," he told her and put her hand on its face. She jolted and wanted to move her hand away, but Lóng Wei wouldn't let her get back.
Instead, he slowly moved her hand over the horse's face, who neighed at her in the beginning, but then calmed down and liked that gentle touch. She was also relieved to find that the horse didn't do anything to her.
"See, how lovely this horse is!" Lóng Wei whispered near her ear. "Then, shall we hop on this horse?" He asked.
