âI remember Miss Yao previously saying that she likes Gu Zheng. Now, sheâs helping Young Master Lu deal with Ah Zheng. Young Master Lu keeps saying that he likes me, but he hopes Iâll lose this bet. The two of you really donât mean what you say!â
Qiao Xi sighed lightly. âUnfortunatelyâ¦â
Lu Yanâs heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly became nervous. âMiss Qiao, what do you mean?â
Qiao Xi ignored him and gently stroked the horseâs mane. The horse leaned intimately against Qiao Xi and rubbed her hand. Lu Yanâs expression changed as he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Qiao Xi looked so indifferent as she neatly tied her hair up. She turned around and said word by word, âYou guessed correctly that this horse has an owner, but you didnât guess that Iâm its owner!â
Boom!!!
Lu Yan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His heart seemed to have exploded.
He stared blankly at Qiao Xi, and he was dumbstruck. He completely lost the bearing of a noble young master.
Under Lu Yanâs shocked gaze, Qiao Xi smiled meaningfully. âYoung Master Lu, I asked you just now why you were so sure I canât tame this horse. In the end, itâs just because youâre too conceited.
âIâll thank you first. Youâre going to give me 5% of the Lu familyâs shares. Young Master Lu, since you already said so, you wonât go back on your word, right?â
Lu Yanâs gaze landed on Qiao Xi. She swiftly got on the horse and sat steadily on it.
His face was filled with disbelief. The owner of this fierce horse was actually Qiao Xi!
The others were laughing and did not notice that Qiao Xi had already gotten on the horse.
âMengqing, as long as she falls off the horse, she wonât just embarrass herself. Sheâll even cause President Gu to lose his shares. I reckon President Gu will get tired of her soon. At that time, the position of Mrs. Gu will be yours.â
âYes, only a noble daughter like you is worthy of the status of Mrs. Gu. Youâll definitely become President Guâs virtuous wife.â
âQiao Xi clearly knows that Young Master Lu and President Gu are not on good terms, yet she still agreed to this bet. Sheâs clearly making President Gu lose face in front of Young Master Lu. She doesnât care about her husband for the sake of her own reputation. President Gu will be disappointed in her sooner or later.â âIf Qiao Xi loses this time, youâll get 5% of Gu Corporationâs shares. Mengqing, after you become a shareholder of Gu Corporation, you can officially accompany President Gu. It wonât be long before President Gu sees your good qualities and despises that country bumpkin, Qiao Xi.â
âThatâs right, Mengqing. Although you didnât tame that horse, itâs not your fault. Itâs just that the horse is too temperamentalâ¦â
Before that person could finish, a shadow flashed in front of him.
Yao Mengqing had her back facing Qiao Xi and did not know what was happening. She smiled gently. âXi Xi is young and a little naughty. Donât take her behavior to heart, everyone. I just feel sorry for Gu Zheng. Iâm worried about Xi Xi. Iâll teach Xi Xi well when I have the chance.
âActually, even if Iâm given the 5% shares, I wonât take them. Ah Zheng and I are childhood sweethearts. How could I have the cheek to take his things?! I just want Xi Xi to remember this lesson. In the future, she canât disregard Ah Zhengâs interests for her own sake.â
âM-Miss Yao, look!â someone said in shock.
Yao Mengqing did not turn around and said proudly, âThereâs nothing to be surprised about. Xi Xi grew up in the countryside. Itâs natural that she doesnât know how to tame horses. I hope she doesnât get injured. That horse is indeedââ
âNo, no. Miss Yao, Mrs. Guâ¦â
Yao Mengqing was annoyed by the interruption and suddenly turned aroundâMrs. Gu is actually riding it!â
Yao Mengqingâs heart trembled. The blood in her body seemed to have frozen.
They saw Qiao Xi riding her horse casually and indifferently as she approached them.
Yao Mengqingâs pupils constricted abruptly as she widened her eyes in horror.
This was impossible. How could Qiao Xi tame this horse?
âMiss Yao, you donât dare to believe it?â Qiao Xi looked down from above and said, âI donât think this horse is that difficult to tame. Itâs very obedient. Iâve already gone around the course once, but it never tried to shake me off. But when you got on the horse, it became irritable. How strange!â Qiao Xi chuckled. âGu Yao, give it a try.â
