Late is Not Late

Ji Wan thought Zhou Zechuan was a light in her life. She willingly hid her brilliance and entered into a secret marriage with him for two years, content to be his kept woman. However, she didn'...

Chapter 321 Vicious Means

He Wanqing also squeezed into the crowd at this time. When she saw this scene, a "shocked" expression appeared on her face.

"Yangyang? Why are you here again?" A trace of panic flashed across He Wanqing's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

The girl looked at He Wanqing pitifully, "Wanqing, please help me explain, I just came to get my bag..."

He Wanqing's expression instantly turned angry. "Shut up, I already said I don't know anyone like you." She stepped forward and slapped him again. "Why are you hurting me like this? I treat you as a friend, but you keep embarrassing me."

The girl was hit so hard that she turned her head away, her eyes full of disbelief, "Wanqing, you..."

"Don't call my name," He Wanqing said coldly, turning to Fu Qichuan, "Mr. Fu, I really didn't know she would do such a thing. I have cut off all ties with her. Please believe me."

Fu Qichuan watched this scene expressionlessly, as if thinking about something. He turned to Ji Wan and asked, "Miss Ji, how did you find her?"

Ji Wan calmly replied, "After the race, I wanted to go see the horse and thank it for its efforts. Near the stable, I saw her sneaking up on the horse I was riding, holding a syringe in her hand."

Chi Wenyan walked over to the security guard and carefully examined the syringe. "This is not insulin. A real insulin syringe has a fixed dose and a thinner needle."

"You know a lot, Second Master," Fu Qichuan looked at Chi Wenyan with interest.

Chi Wenyan responded calmly, "I know a little about medicine."

Security personnel restrained the girl and prepared to take her away.

The girl suddenly struggled and yelled at He Wanqing, "Wanqing, how could you do this? It was you who asked me to do this. You said you wanted to teach Ji Wan a lesson and make her look bad in the competition."

He Wanqing's expression changed drastically. "Nonsense, I don't even know you."

The girl became even more agitated. "Don't believe her. She's a scheming bitch. A few days ago, she boasted to me that she seduced Mr. Chi and had a one-night stand with him at a wedding."

There was an uproar in the crowd.

Chi Wenyan's face turned gloomy and he looked at He Wanqing sharply.

He Wanqing panicked, "Yangyang, are you crazy? I've never said anything like that."

Sheng Yanjing also arrived at the scene at this time. After hearing this conversation, he couldn't help but look at Chi Wenyan, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Fu Qichuan cleared his throat. "Alright, this is a personal grudge. Don't cause trouble on my horse ranch. Security, take this lady away and wait for the test results to come out before we deal with her."

The security personnel pulled the girl away, but she kept shouting, "Wanqing is a liar. She takes advantage of everyone." Her voice gradually faded away.

He Wanqing stood there awkwardly, feeling everyone's strange gazes, especially Chi Wenyan's cold gaze, which made her feel uneasy.

"I... I'll go back and change my clothes first." He Wanqing forced a smile and fled the scene.

Fu Qichuan turned to Ji Wan and said, "Miss Ji, I'm so sorry that this happened to you."

Ji Wan shook his head. "No need to apologize. Fortunately, I found it in time."

"This kind of thing rarely happens at the horse farm," Fu Qichuan said seriously, "I will investigate it thoroughly and give you an explanation."

Ji Wan nodded in thanks, but her eyes unconsciously looked for Chi Wenyan.

He was standing not far away, talking in a low voice with Sheng Yanjing, and the two of them looked in Ji Wan's direction from time to time.

Chi Wenyan noticed her gaze, nodded slightly, then said something to Sheng Yanjing and walked towards Ji Wan.

"Are you okay?" Chi Wenyan asked in a low voice.

Ji Wan shook his head, "I'm fine, just a little surprised."

"He Wanqing has always been targeting you?"

"I guess so," Ji Wan replied briefly, "We have some holidays."

Chi Wenyan seemed to be thinking about something. "I understand." He paused, "Regarding tomorrow's meeting with Fu Qichuan, we need to talk about it in advance."

Ji Wan looked at him curiously, "Why?"

"Because the Qihai project is not as simple as you think," Chi Wenyan lowered his voice, "Chi Lin may have fallen into a dangerous game."

Ji Wan's heart tightened, "What do you mean?"

"Now is not a good time to talk about this." Chi Wenyan looked around, "I'll be at the Moonlight Cafe in Yucheng South District at 8 o'clock tonight. See you there."

Before Ji Wan could respond, Fu Qichuan came over and asked, "Second Master, do you want to continue the game?"

Chi Wenyan glanced at Ji Wan, then smiled slightly, "Of course, we can't let this little incident affect the game."

Fu Qichuan nodded with satisfaction, "Then let's go back to the viewing area."

Ji Wan followed everyone back to the viewing area, but his mind was full of questions. Why was Chi Wenyan so interested in the Qihai project?

What did he mean by "dangerous game"?

And why did He Wanqing fabricate a one-night stand with Chi Wenyan?

These mysteries are like a fog shrouding our hearts, and the answers may not be revealed until eight o'clock tonight.

Before the game resumed, Fu Qichuan called Ma Tong aside and whispered a few words to him.

Ma Tong nodded in acceptance, carefully took the suspicious syringe, and quickly left.

"Let the professionals test it," Fu Qichuan explained as he returned to Ji Wan's side. "The results will be out soon."

Ji Wan nodded in thanks, "Thank you, Mr. Fu, for your attention."

"Fair competition on the racecourse is crucial," Fu Qichuan said seriously, "If anyone breaks the rules, I will not tolerate it."

He paused, a mysterious smile suddenly appearing on his face. "However, since everyone is so excited today, how about another match? How about a women's championship and runner-up final?"

He Wanqing's eyes flashed when she heard this, "I'm very willing to compete with Miss Ji again."

Ji Wan was a little surprised, but soon understood Fu Qichuan's intention.

He wanted to see how the two would behave if they knew someone was cheating.

This is not only a test of their riding skills, but also a test of their character.

"That's fine with me," Ji Wan agreed readily, "but I want to change horses."

"Of course," Fu Qichuan nodded with a smile, "I'll prepare a better one for you."

The match between Chi Wenyan and Sheng Yanjing was temporarily postponed, and the focus of the audience returned to Ji Wan and He Wanqing.

The stable boy quickly brought a beautiful white horse to Ji Wan. "This is Silver Wind. It's faster than Star, but has a more aggressive temper."

Ji Wan stroked the white horse's mane, feeling its strong muscles and vibrant energy. She whispered to the horse, "Today, I'm counting on you, buddy."

He Wanqing was still riding her black horse with a confident smile on her face, but deep jealousy was hidden in her eyes.

The two arrived at the starting point, and the atmosphere was tense and enthusiastic. Fu Qichuan personally served as the starter and raised the starting gun.

"preparation--"

Bang.
