Chapter 26

Ye Tianhui hugged Lin Jianquan and fell to the grass.

This was the route she had planned the moment she rushed out. She had perfectly calculated the speed, distance, height of the hillside, route of force release, and the place of rolling.

The grass was lush and soft, with old fallen leaves piled on it, which could relieve the last impact of her and Lin Jianquan.

However, this fall still caused a great impact on the two of them.

Maybe she had miscalculated after all. The Ye Tianhui of this life was not the same as the one in the previous life. There was still a big difference in the basic physical quality.

She hugged Lin Jianquan tightly, closed her eyes, and silently endured the pain brought by the fall.

After a moment, she finally opened her eyes and looked at Lin Jianquan in her arms.

His frail body was tense like a fully drawn bow, and every part of his body was as stiff as a stone. His face was pale and bloodless. He was trembling, shaking violently in her arms, like a yellow leaf hanging on a dead branch in late autumn.

She hugged him tighter and gave him some comfort.

Lin Jianquan seemed to feel it, and he buried his face in her arms, greedily feeling the soft warmth. He trembled his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but he couldn't make any sound.

Ye Tianhui didn't say anything, just hugged him silently.

Soon, the staff of the horse farm rushed over, Jessie and others also ran over, and people gathered around.

Ye Tianhui wanted to let go of Lin Jianquan, but Lin Jianquan still held her tightly.

His weak arms trembled as he clung to her body, and his dark eyes widened.

This was the first time Ye Tianhui saw a childlike confusion and fear in his eyes.

Ye Tianhui couldn't bear it.

She understood that this must not be just because of the danger just now, his eyes clearly had the mark of an entire dark childhood left on him.

However, the voice of the bald horse trainer rang out, and he rushed over and yelled: "What's wrong, what's wrong, doctor, doctor, come quickly!"

Hearing this voice, Lin Jianquan shuddered, and then the emotions in his eyes disappeared, and his originally trembling arms seemed to be controlled by himself, and he instantly recovered from the fear of surviving the disaster.

The bald horse trainer came, and the medical staff also came. People surrounded them, quickly checked their bodies, and wanted to lift them onto the stretcher.

However, Lin Jianquan pushed away the hand that was supporting him, and also pushed away the stretcher.

He stood up, his face was pale, his body was straight, and his expression was indifferent and stubborn.

Ye Tianhui felt that at this moment, he instantly turned into a sword, a cold and sharp sword, which was his shell in front of the world.

He said in an unusually hoarse voice: "I'm fine, I can continue the competition."

The bald horse trainer looked at Lin Jianquan like this, looked at him with the eyes of looking at cattle, horses and goods, and suddenly laughed as he looked at him.

His laughter was full of complacency and pride: "Very good, very good, remember, failure is not terrible, what is terrible is that you have fear! Fear is the enemy of a rider. An outstanding rider will never be cowardly and will always be invincible. Even if you are seriously injured, you have to get up for me, climb on the horse's back, and climb to the finish line!"

Ye Tianhui also refused the help of the medical staff. She was very clear about the impact she had suffered. She would not have any internal injuries, just some flesh abrasions.

She stood up and was about to leave. Jessie supported her and asked her in a concerned and low voice.

She smiled softly and said, "I'm fine."

When she made a sound, many people around looked over, and the bald horse trainer also looked over.

Everyone had seen what had just happened, and they knew how the light blue shadow had rushed onto the horse's back in a magical and graceful manner, and brought the thin rider down.

Everything was so beautiful that it was beyond description, and it made people marvel.

In this amazement, people looked back at the track, and the tragedy on the track had already happened, and some riders had already wailed.

It was so frightening.

The bald horse trainer took a deep breath and looked at Ye Tianhui: "Thank you for saving him. If it weren't for you, he would have been seriously injured."

Ye Tianhui: "You're welcome. I just happened to be in such a hurry."

Some people also looked at her curiously: "Do you know Kung Fu? Qinggong?"

Ye Tianhui: "I know a little Kung Fu, but not any Qinggong. I just have good athletic ability and happened to be in such a hurry."

Now that the tragedy has happened, some riders' careers must have been ruined, and their lives may even be in danger. This accident will also be investigated, and she is afraid that she will be implicated.

At this time, other staff members arrived and began to deal with the situation on the scene. They ordered all personnel not to move. Someone took Ye Tianhui away to question her about her sudden appearance, and Lin Jianquan would also be taken to participate in the investigation.

Just as Ye Tianhui turned to leave, Lin Jianquan raised his long eyelashes and looked at Ye Tianhui with his dark eyes.

Ye Tianhui felt his gaze and gave him a silent smile.

Lin Jianquan's eyelashes flickered and he lowered his eyelids again.

************

Actually, it is not uncommon for accidents to occur at the racecourse.

Horse racing is a popular sport, but it is very dangerous for both the horses and the riders. According to statistics from the United States, there are nearly 300 to 400 purebred racehorses killed every year, and the number of injured riders is countless.

The young Chongzai, with his poor and frail body, entered this industry, which was a desperate struggle. If he won, he might be able to gain fame and fortune like Ke Zhiming and change his life. If he lost, he would be unknown and injured, but the worst thing was that he would lose his life.

At this time, the arena was in a mess, with wailing and screaming. Ye Tianhui didn't know what happened, but she knew that those wailing riders would never have another chance.

The world of riders is a cruel competition. Those who scream in fear will be eliminated.

Ye Tianhui was taken to a room, a closed room without windows. A sharp-eyed man wearing a hat began to interrogate her and question her about the situation at that time.

She saved Lin Jianquan, but such an accident happened after all, and she should not have appeared on the track. They need to investigate the situation.

Ye Tianhui told the man everything she saw. The man did not express his belief or disbelief in her words, but just recorded them expressionlessly.

She knew that the other party would not only interrogate herself, but also others. They would interrogate everyone individually and then compare the situation at that time.

After being interrogated, she was locked in the stable. The locked stable still had no windows, and it was filled with the smell of horse manure mixed with moldy odor.

Because there was no light, she could not see the changes in light and darkness outside, and could only estimate the time based on her feelings.

This kind of darkness that is pitch black can easily make people mentally collapse, but Ye Tianhui is not an ordinary person after all. She will not let herself be affected by such a small matter, so she lay quietly on the bed, calm and peaceful.

In this time-like silence, Ye Tianhui also thought of many things.

This life experience was poor, so poor that it was not worth Ye Tianhui's recollection. She was thinking about her previous life.

In her previous life, she had experienced so many battles, and those battles occupied most of her memory, so much so that she would think that her short twenty-five years were a magnificent military career.

But now when she looked at the darkness, many details that she had never paid attention to appeared from the gaps in her memory, making her start to consider and reflect on herself.

She remembered the details when she was holding Lin Jianquan.

The frail body was clearly strangled by fear. He trembled, he was numb and stiff, he wished he could turn into a baby and curl up in his arms to escape this strange and cruel world.

But when everything returned to reality, his reason returned, he suddenly became strong and indestructible, as if he was indifferent to nothing.

Ye Tianhui knew that it was fake, he just wrapped himself up and armed himself.

She thought about his thin and frail but straight figure. She

had never seen such a person in her memory, but she felt familiar, someone had given her such a feeling before.

She closed her eyes, in the endless darkness and silence, when she got rid of the hustle and bustle of this world, she finally saw that it was the young emperor.

That year she was fourteen years old, holding a sword and dancing in the Wanquan River of Qinglong Ridge. At that time, the saint was only seventeen years old and had not yet entered the East Palace. He stood beside the clear and pure waterfall, scooped up a handful of white waves, and once sighed: "This pool of waterfalls, flowing in this Wanquan River, with surging waves and splashing jade and flying pearls, is also free and happy. Huihui, what do you think?"

Ye Tianhui put away the two-foot green sword and looked at the young man in the vast smoke. He was born calm and reserved, but there was a trace of confusion between his eyebrows.

She thought for a moment before saying, "Rivers can moisten a hundred miles, and seas can moisten a thousand miles. If you can accommodate a hundred rivers, why should you settle for this corner?"

At that time, the Great Zhao Kingdom was under pressure from the Qiang and Di outside and worried about money inside. It was a difficult time for the country.

Her father, a general, once said that the mountains and rivers are shaking, and only a wise ruler is waiting. Looking at the princes in the palace, the only one who can recreate the world is the third prince .

Ye Tianhui opened her eyes.

She no longer remembered what the saint said later, and what she said. She only remembered that he entered the East Palace within a month, and ascended the throne as emperor two months later.

She let out a breath and tried to dispel these past memories.

In fact, the saint is different from Lin Jianquan. The saint is tall and handsome, vigorous and energetic, which is a rare demeanor in Dazhao Kingdom. No matter when and where, he is always at ease, holding the sun and the moon in his hands and stepping on the world with his feet.

He expanded the borders and his achievements are enough to be recorded in history.

Even if there has never been a trace of him in this era, the vast starry sky can testify that in a certain time and space, there was a young emperor with great talent and strategy who once opened up a magnificent era.

So, why did she have such an illusion to compare a mere Lin Jianquan with him?

She finally gathered her mind and let herself sleep.

Everything in the past has long gone. She was born in a brand new era, and there are still many things waiting for her to do.

************

The wooden door of the stable was pushed open, and the dazzling sunlight from outside poured in, and Ye Tianhui felt a flash of glare.

After a moment, she adjusted to the light and saw two horse farm staff and two policemen coming over. Without saying a word, they took her to a house and questioned her again.

It was still the same questions from yesterday, asked repeatedly, asked over and over again, and asked from different angles.

Ye Tianhui understood that her answer could not be wrong at all.

A major accident occurred at the horse racing scene yesterday, and the police were investigating. As one of the parties present at the scene, the police were obviously suspicious of her.

She was a girl from the mainland and only had a work residence permit. Once she became a criminal suspect or was suspected of something, she would be fired and deported, and then she would lose all her opportunities.

Obviously, they interrogated me first, then locked me in a dark room, exerted psychological pressure on me, made me collapse, and then took advantage of this time to interrogate me again. This was their trick.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have been unable to bear it and would have begun to collapse. However, Ye Tianhui had a strong psychological quality, which was a long-term calmness. She could

remain calm even when faced with a huge crisis. Of course, she couldn't be too calm. After all, in the eyes of these policemen, she was just an ordinary person. If she was too calm, it would arouse their suspicion. Appropriately showing anxiety and fear would make them trust her more.

After about two hours of interrogation, she signed the interrogation results and was finally released.

At this time, Jessie and others had also been interrogated and released. After surviving the disaster, everyone was excited to see each other and couldn't help but hug each other.

Jessie hugged Ye Tianhui: "It's terrible! How could this happen!"

Ye Tianhui was a little breathless in his hug, and reached out to push him away, but couldn't: "Isn't it solved? It's okay."

Jessie still hugged Ye Tianhui, very moved: "I keep thinking back to the scene at that time, God Tianhui you are great! You are so great! I can't believe you flew over and saved Lin Jianquan!"

Ye Tianhui: "I don't ask for merit, but I hope not to make mistakes. We just don't get implicated!"

Jessie let go of Ye Tianhui, shook his head, and murmured uncertainly: "It shouldn't be."

They hid in the stable, which was obviously against the rules of the horse farm. It would have been fine if they didn't make any noise, but Ye Tianhui ran out, and something happened after running out.

To be fair, if Ye Tianhui hadn't run out, Lin Jianquan would have been in trouble. The best outcome would have been serious injuries, and the other riders would still not have been spared.

Now she ran out and saved Lin Jianquan, and Lin Jianquan was safe, but the other riders were still in a bad state, and it was hard to judge the merits and demerits of this matter.

Under the rigid rules, Ye Tianhui might still be held responsible. In

fact, Ye Tianhui had already thought of this, but she couldn't care less, after all, she had done it, so she sighed: "It's up to fate, I just want to do things with a clear conscience." In

fact, there is no need to weigh so much, seeing that the situation is not good, rushing out is just a moment, this is intuition, this is also instinct, as for the consequences, that is to calm down and slowly analyze later.

Soon, she was called to Manager Hu. Manager Hu looked serious and had a long talk with her. He praised her spirit of not fearing danger at that time, saying that if it weren't for her, Lin Jianquan would have died. He also praised her quick reaction at that time and praised her for her great kung fu.

Ye Tianhui felt something was wrong in this praise.

This was clearly a compliment first and then a criticism.

Finally, Manager Hu looked at Ye Tianhui and said, "You really helped us. In view of your outstanding performance, we will reward you with one thousand Hong Kong dollars. Can you accept it?"

Ye Tianhui accepted it of course.

However, there was no joy on her face. She looked at Manager Hu calmly, waiting for his next change of tone.

As expected, Manager Hu said, "But I also hope you understand that this accident has caused losses to our horse farm. An experienced and mature rider was implicated and has suffered a serious fracture after being trampled by a galloping horse. Two other riders may be eliminated. These are riders that we have spent real money and effort to train, so the loss this time is very large."

Ye Tianhui raised an eyebrow and asked directly, "But what does their accident have to do with me?" What does it matter? I just saved Lin Jianquan. I am a mortal. I can't save more people. If I don't take action, only one more person will be injured. "

Manager Hu sighed: "Ms. Ye, I'm sorry, but you are just assuming. No matter what, the consequences have been caused. We can't assume anything. The current situation is that things have happened and have led to a bad ending."

He looked at Ye Tianhui: "Ms. Ye must also admit that your appearance In fact, it may even disturb the subsequent horse races, thus causing congestion and chaos in the horse races. "

Ye Tianhui sneered: "You put the blame on me, but why don't you investigate the instigator? Who kicked Lin Jianquan's horse with his foot? Why did he do this? To win the race? What basis did he have to do this? Was he instructed by someone else? Why did he do this to Lin Jianquan?"

Manager Hu looked at Ye Tianhui, After looking for a long while, he finally said in a serious expression: "Miss Ye, it seems that you don't know much about the competition among the bugs. When we train bugs, we have to pick those with excellent talents. Their stress response ability, perception ability, balance ability, and athletic ability all need to be top-notch. In addition to talent, they must have a strong mind and be able to endure hardships to become the best. I don't know how many bugs gave up halfway."

Ye Tianhui frowned when she heard this.

Manager Hu: "There is only one way to climb up. This is a job that requires the sacrifice of thousands of people. When a rider rises, it means that others lose the opportunity. When a rider falls, it inevitably makes another rider or several riders successful. You know, before Ko Chi-ming, the most famous rider was a British rider who won three consecutive championships in the Hong Kong obstacle race, but unfortunately he fell and his sternum was broken. On the way to the hospital by ambulance, dozens of riders were already eyeing his position, and everyone rushed to grab it. Only then did Ko Chi-ming have the opportunity and became the legendary local Hong Kong rider today."

Ye Tianhui understood.

Every bug wants to climb to the top of the pyramid, but there are only one or two people at the top. The road is too narrow. If you want to climb over, you must push others down.

The tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Lin Jianquan's excellence has threatened the future of others.

Maybe there are others behind the rider, but jealousy is his biggest motivation.

And such things will happen many times in Lin Jianquan's future horse racing career, even in the regular racecourse, it is possible to be plotted against by others at a critical moment.

Where there are people, there are right and wrong, where there are success and failure, there are intrigues, and this is also a link that he must cultivate in his horse racing career.

Manager Hu sighed, "There are other reasons behind this, but that is no longer something I can investigate. We will punish the rider and the police will handle it. In fact, he also broke his bones and may have ruined his horse racing career. But we can't keep you here. I also hope you can think about our difficulties. Do you understand?"

Ye Tianhui certainly understood. This must be Ye Wenyin's pressure.

As a VIP of the racecourse, the Ye family is the one that the racecourse wants to serve with all its strength, not to mention that once the Ye family becomes popular in this season and is promoted to the Jockey Club Committee, they will have more say in the horse racing field. If you

think more deeply, if the Shatin area of ​​the Ye family can be developed into a new racecourse, all the racecourses in Hong Kong will have to rely on them.

In this situation, with just a look from Ye Wenyin, Manager Hu would definitely do his best, and she was so insignificant that she was naturally not worth mentioning and could be sacrificed at any time.

Ye Tianhui stopped making meaningless excuses, and the best plan for now was to get rid of her identity as soon as possible.

And according to what she had heard before, it sounded like the Ye family would be coming on Monday, and that would be her chance.

Otherwise, she was actually no different from Lin Jianquan, and could only rely on her own flesh and blood to struggle at the bottom, and it would be difficult for her to get out.

So she had to find a way to meet Master Ye.

And for this purpose, she could just lower her posture, as long as she could achieve her goal.

She seemed carefree, but she was not a person who would act on short-term courage. She could be heroic on the battlefield, but she could not act on impulse. She

softened her tone and looked at Manager Hu and said, "Manager Hu, I understand your difficulties, and I will not force you to do so here, but I have an unreasonable request, is that okay?"

Manager Hu was relieved to see that she accepted it with such a good attitude. He became generous and said, "I said, to thank you, we will give you a bonus of HK$1,000, which is also a consolation and gratitude to you. As for the rest, I will do everything within my ability. "

I started working here a few days ago, and I just moved to the stables yesterday to work the night shift. Before I moved here, I had already given up my house to save on rent. Suddenly, it was hard for me to find a place to stay. Can you give me some time to find a place to stay, and let me continue to work here during the weekend? There may be guests coming to the stables on Monday, but I will leave early in the morning so that no one will see me, okay?"

Manager Hu listened with some hesitation. He certainly hoped to get Ye Tianhui to leave the racecourse as soon as possible, which would also be beneficial for his subsequent communication with the Ye family.

Upon seeing this, Ye Tianhui pleaded again, "I came from the mainland and I don't have much money. I finally found a job here, and I wanted to work hard. I didn't expect that such a thing would happen after only two days on the job. I feel guilty. Now I hope I can work here for two more days. I don't want the wages for the weekend. I just hope I won't have to live on the streets for these two days."

Her words were sincere and a little pitiful. Manager Hu naturally couldn't bear it and sighed, "Okay, but on Monday, you have to move out early in the morning. As for the weekend, we may have some cleaning work here, you can join in, and we won't lack your salary."

Since Ye Tianhui had already got the promise, thinking that she would be able to meet the old man of the Ye family on Monday, she thanked him and left.

*******************

She was going to be fired anyway, so she told Jessie about it. Although Jessie was not fired, she was also punished.

He was a little listless, but he was still very gossipy. He told Ye Tianhui in detail about his interrogation, the injuries and future of those riders, and he also mentioned Lin Jianquan.

Lin Jianquan was hardly injured, but he heard that the Ye family was very dissatisfied with him and planned to give up. He also lost the opportunity because of this incident, and his reputation was not good. All his efforts were wasted.

However, because of his talent, the racecourse decided to keep him and train him after careful consideration, hoping that after things calmed down, they would bring him out to participate in competitions, let him accumulate points, and sell him for a good price.

Jessie was somewhat indignant about these arrangements: "This is clearly your credit, but they want to drive you away. They are picking on the weak and you have become the sacrifice."

Ye Tianhui no longer had any emotional fluctuations about this matter. Anyway, it's up to her to see what happens next.

She smiled and said, "It's nothing. Actually, my original purpose of coming to the horse farm was not pure. Now that I've been here for some time, I can say that I have made some progress." She

originally thought that working at the horse farm to learn some knowledge and get in touch with more horses was a good idea. However, after coming here, she found that there were a lot of trivial tasks to do, which actually wasted time and was not cost-effective. She might as well go to the library to borrow more books and buy some horse classics to study.

Jessie sighed, "I heard that the horse farm now has the Ye family's horses. The Black Rose seems to be in a bad condition. They are also guilty, so they can only try their best to please Miss Ye, hoping that Miss Ye will say a good word for them." Ye

Tianhui listened and said, "It seems that the horse is indeed in a bad condition."

Jessie nodded and comforted Ye Tianhui, "You go find a house to live in first. I will also ask my friends. If there is a job opportunity, I will introduce it to you."

After expressing her gratitude, Ye Tianhui left the horse farm first.

She thought of Gu Shizhang and wanted to call him, but she thought that he was far away in the UK.

Although he gave her the contact information in the UK and the phone number of an assistant, she thought about it and gave up.

The two of them were friends, and he was extremely nice to her, but she didn't report everything to him. Moreover, she didn't want to tell outsiders about her various connections with the Ye family while the matter of recognition of kinship was still pending. She gave up

right away and hurried back to her original rental house to ask the old lady about the house.

After she walked out of the racecourse, she hurried to the bus stop. Who knew that when she passed the roadside parking lot, a car door happened to open and a man got out of the car.

Ye Tianhui saw him and remembered that this was the man who gave her a ride that day.

She looked at the man and remembered that she rushed to work that day, full of hope. Now, she was about to be chased away.

As a result, she met this man again.

But she was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she went to the bus stop.

Who knew the man would say: "What did you want to say to me that day?"

Ye Tianhui stopped and looked back at the man.

She smiled: "Nothing."

Ye Lixuan pursed his lips and looked at her silently, with an inquiring look on his face.

Ye Tianhui didn't want to pay attention to him at first, after all, she was involved in a lawsuit, but when she saw the way he looked at her, she felt disgusted for no reason, the kind of inquiring, defensive, and inquiring look.

This man was really dirty, he actually treated her as a woman of questionable character. Has he never seen a woman before? He actually thought too much when he saw a little girl.

She just asked him if he was Ye Lixuan. Since he was not, then forget it. Who had to chase him?

Ye Tianhui felt that this man really needed a little education.

She walked up to him and looked at him: "Sir, actually when I first saw you, I felt that you looked very familiar and kind."

Ye Lixuan looked at her silently, without any emotion in his eyes.

Ye Tianhui smiled and said: "The reason why I asked you those questions is because I have a relative and I think you look very much like him."

Ye Lixuan: "Oh?"

Ye Tianhui sighed sadly: "My relative is my dear grandfather."

Ye Lixuan frowned slightly.

Ye Tianhui continued, "He was weak, had a low IQ, was skinny, and had an ugly appearance since he was young. Everyone hated him. When he grew up, he was uneducated, drank, gambled, and contracted a lot of diseases. My grandfather drove him out of the house, but my father was still thinking about this relative and kept looking for him. The first time I saw you that day -"

She looked at him sincerely, with true feelings in her eyes: "I felt that you really looked like my grandfather, whether in expression, temperament or appearance, they were very similar, so I asked you."

Ye Lixuan's eyes suddenly turned cold: "You -"

He naturally understood that she was deliberately slandering him.

Ye Lixuan had never met such a presumptuous and mean girl since he grew up.

Ye Tianhui sighed: "Although you look a lot like my grandfather, I don't think you are. After all, you look much older than my grandfather."

She looked at him kindly: "I hope you can have a healthy and happy life. Don't let yourself fall into depravity. Don't be too self-deprecating about your IQ and appearance. In fact, you are not that bad. Really, you believe me. Goodbye."

She turned and left.

Behind her, Ye Lixuan said coldly: "Little girl, didn't your parents teach you what is education?"

Ye Tianhui laughed and said, "Master, didn't your ancestors teach you what self-knowledge is? Look at you, the wrinkles on your face can kill a mosquito, and when a young girl talks to you, do you have wild thoughts? How dirty are your thoughts!"

Ye Lixuan: "Don't you know what you said? Did you deliberately say that your last name is Ye? And you are guessing my identity!"

Ye Tianhui naturally understood that the Ye family was a wealthy family. No matter which branch of the Ye family the man in front of him was from, he would be flirted with by women if he was associated with the word "Ye".

The words she used to try to strike up a conversation that day were indeed easy to be misunderstood, making people think that she had other intentions and that she had been planning it carefully for a long time.

However, she still thought it was funny.

She said, "I'm telling you, my master's name is Ye Lixuan. I came to you because of a misunderstanding. Since you said you're not called this name, who is still pestering you? As for my last name——"

As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing her smooth arms: "I won't change my name or surname. My last name is Ye, and I've been Ye for two lifetimes. What's my last name got to do with you! If you bring this up again, I'll beat you up."

Ye Lixuan stood straight beside the parking lawn, frowning slightly, staring coldly at the wild girl in front of him.

At first, he thought she was beautiful and beautiful, but later he found out that she had ulterior motives. Now he realized that she could be so vicious and vicious.

He took a deep breath and finally said, "Little girl, you are still very young and have a long way to go in life. Take care of yourself."
