When Xue Lin picked the horses, he carefully inspected the horses and ruled out the possibility of manipulation. His heart, which had been hanging since Mingyi agreed to race with Hu Jinyue, finally fell halfway. Go to the real place. Xue Lin brought the chosen horse to Mingyi. It was a chestnut mare. You couldn't tell if it was a famous horse that traveled thousands of miles, but at first glance, it was very docile. Xue Lin took out a paper bag from his clothes and handed it to Mingyi. Mingyi was puzzled, "What is it?" As she asked, she still reached out to take it, opened the paper bag, and smiled in surprise when she looked at the contents inside, "It's actually a candy bar? I still have it with me. Are you bringing some candy?" When she looked up at him, her eyes were slightly narrowed, like crescent moons, full of narrow smiles. Xue Lin's face was still expressionless, and his expression did not change at all because of her teasing. He looked at the candy in her hand and handed it to the horse he was holding with his chin, "Feed it quickly!" It turned out that he was going to bribe the horse! Mingyi suddenly realized that he was thoughtful. Mingyi glanced at Xue Lin with a smile, took a piece of candy and fed it to the horse, trying to please it. The horse nuzzled her and became very affectionate. Mingyi was even more happy, smiling and rolling her eyes next to it. "Mrs. Rong, is it okay?" At this time, Hu Jinyue also randomly picked a horse from the remaining ones picked by Xue Lin, led the horse over, and looked at Mingyi lightly. "Okay." Mingyi cleared her throat and replied seriously. Hu Jinyue took a step forward and quickly climbed onto the horse's back. His movements showed that he was an expert at first glance. However, Mingyi stepped on the stirrups and got on the horse with Xue Lin's help. "Just run slowly, make sure you are safe!" Xue Lin lowered his voice and said to her before pulling away.
Mingyi nodded. Anyway, Hu Jinyue said that as long as she agreed to race horses, she could decide to sell the horses to them. She was not doing it to win, so she would naturally pay attention to safety. Her riding skills were still far from those of a real expert on horse racing, but it was not a problem after just one run, not to mention... She scratched the mane of the horse under her, and the horse tilted its head obediently. Rubbing her palm, this horse is so good. "How does Madam Hu want to compete?" Mingyi patted the horse gently, then straightened up and turned to ask Hu Jinyue who was driving the horse beside her. "It's very simple. Just go to the edge of the racecourse, come back, and run back and forth. Whoever gets there first wins." Hu Jinyue held the reins in one hand and pointed his chin towards the fence at the edge of the racecourse that could be seen not far away. So simple? Mingyi really didn't understand what this girl wanted to do, but she responded with a smile, her heart even more wary, "Okay! I'll listen to you!" On the other side, Xue Lin also frowned tightly, his eyes sweeping towards Hu Jinyue like knives. The latter didn't seem to realize it, but the horse's reins flicked and he galloped out. Mingyi followed and chased him. Although he had made up his mind to run back to the horse early in the morning, he didn't care about winning or losing, but he couldn't touch it. The fish's touch was too obvious, so Mingyi still chased Hu Jinyue closely. The road was flat, so there was no difficulty for her. Until he reached the fence, he turned his horse around and galloped back. He saw that he was halfway through the race. In a blink of an eye, this inexplicable race was about to end, and there was no accident as Mingyi thought. Could it be that she was really a villain? But at this moment, a whistle was suddenly heard, and the originally obedient horse under Mingyi's crotch suddenly went crazy and began to kick, left and right, trying to throw Mingyi off its back. Mingyi had always tightened her heartstrings. Although this change came suddenly, she was not thrown off immediately and subconsciously tightened the reins. In the flash of lightning, she remembered what Xue Lin had said to her before. Horses are human beings. They can feel people's moods. If you are nervous, it will be nervous too. Mingyi forced herself to calm down, recalling the skills taught by Aunt Su and the experience she had gained from riding the horse for a period of time. She lowered her body and clung to the horse's back, rubbing her hand soothingly. Ma Mane, after the whistle sounded just now, it fell silent. Without the influence of the whistle, the horse calmed down little by little under Mingyi's comfort. A black shadow came from a distance, grabbed the reins and stopped the horse. Mingyi raised her head and saw Xue Lin, whose face was as dark as water. His eyes were filled with cold light, like ice blades. Although he knew it was not directed at her, Mingyi still felt a little scary for a moment. "Get down!" Xue Lin stretched out his hand, hugged her waist, and pulled her off the horse. After helping her off the horse, he removed his hand from her waist, turned to his right hand and grabbed her arm through the sleeve, and pulled her to the side. Mingyi saw that he was heading in the direction of the other courtyard and felt something was wrong. She quickly stopped. She had the strength to do it. Xue Lin stopped immediately and looked at her with a frown, "What are you doing?" His eyes were cold, but Mingyi was no longer afraid at this moment, "I want to ask you what to do, right?" From the corner of his eye, he saw Fourth Master Hu and his party coming this way, and Mingyi's feet were even more steady. He stood there steadily, "We have made an agreement with Madam Hu. Now that the horse has raced, it's time to strike while the iron is hot and let them sign the contract." "What kind of contract are you still signing? Don't you know who did that just now?" Xue Lin's voice became deeper, and every word seemed to be filled with ice. "I know, it's Mrs. Hu." When she heard the whistle, she saw that it was Hu Jinyue who blew a special jade whistle and drove the well-behaved horse to go crazy. Xue Lin's eyes looked at her even more strangely, "Now that you know, why are you still here?" "That's why I stay here because I know it. Not only do I know it, but everyone here can see it clearly. How can I not have an explanation? Besides, if we don't get what we deserve, wouldn't my shock be in vain? "After Mingyi finished speaking, she pulled out her hand with all her strength, turned around and faced Fourth Master Hu and others who were walking over. Xue Lin's eyes twitched behind her, but he finally followed her.
"Mrs. Rong, you see, I'm really sorry for what happened today..." Mr. Hu's face no longer had the shrewdness he had earlier, and he pulled Hu Jinyue over with an apologetic smile. As if Mingyi hadn't seen him, she walked past him and walked to Hu Jinyue. Then she raised her hand and slapped Hu Jinyue mercilessly with a "pop" sound. At this moment, the huge racecourse suddenly fell silent. Even Xue Lin stopped walking. Everyone else looked at Mingyi in shock. But she still had a smile on her face, looking at Hu Jinyue who was covering his cheek and looking at her, but the smile was not as bright as her eyes, "No matter what the reason is, you should know that if I just made a mistake and fell off the horse, If you go down, you will either die or be disabled. So, giving you a slap in the face is not too much, right?" Hu Jinyue looked at her, with all kinds of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes. After a while, she suddenly put down the hand covering her cheek. The mark of the slap on her face was very clear, "I owe you, hit me if you want!" Mingyi stopped hitting her and turned to look at Fourth Master Hu, "Fourth Master, just before the horse race, Madam Hu promised to sell us those horses from the Western Regions at a favorable price. Does this still count?" Fourth Master Hu finally came to his senses, hurriedly smiled and said, "If you count, you will naturally count!" "That's good! I'd like to trouble Fourth Master to draw up a deed with my father in a moment. The black one will fall on the white one, so everyone can rest assured." "Yes, yes, yes!" Mr. Hu bowed his waist and responded repeatedly, with cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. Mingyi settled the matter, smiled and nodded in a good mood, then turned to look at Hu Jinyue, "Okay, now I can ask Madam Hu for an explanation. Hu Twelve Madam, Hu Jinyue, why are you doing this? Do this?" (End of chapter)
