Chapter 58
Gu Shizhang held Ye Tianhui's hand, and Ye Tianhui held Teng Yunwu's reins. The two of them rode back to the stable together.
At this time, the mountain breeze blew, and Ye Tianhui's hair was blown up by the breeze. She had just run for a while, and her body was hot. Now that the wind blew, she naturally felt cool and refreshed.
Gu Shizhang looked at Ye Tianhui sideways, and the hair that was lightly draped over her shoulders was blown up, revealing a section of her fair neck.
Because of the intense exercise just now, there was a touch of blush on her neck, just like rouge red smeared on snow-white porcelain.
He never looked away, looking at her, whispering: "Are you cold in the wind like this?"
Ye Tianhui raised her hand to lift the slightly damp hair beside her ear: "Not cold, it's so hot, I'm sweating, I need to take a shower."
You can take a shower in the stable here, and you can also take a shower in the VIP room, but the VIP room is far away, and with Ye Tianhui's personality, she will just take a simple shower in the stable.
Gu Shizhang: "Well, then you take a shower, I'll wait outside."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay."
The two of them walked to the stable at the same time. The stable staff had already been waiting, and hurriedly led Teng Yunwu into the stable. The horse that had just run through naturally had to be carefully cared for. It had to be covered with a horse blanket to keep warm first, and then rinsed. The series of processes were more delicate than people.
When Teng Yunwu was handed over to the staff, Teng Yunwu turned his horse face and looked over. He looked at Gu Shizhang and then at Ye Tianhui, and seemed reluctant to leave.
Ye Tianhui laughed dumbly and gently stroked Teng Yunwu's face: "What's wrong? Remember, your master is me, not him."
She rubbed his horse mane affectionately: "You are mine, don't pay attention to him."
Gu Shizhang smiled and looked at Ye Tianhui: "Oh, why can't you be mine?"
The "oh" sounded with a subtle arc, which made people feel that it was meaningful.
If she hadn't been completely sure of his situation before, she would have just given up and just said it casually. Now, it sounds like a provocation and teasing!
She snorted, "Are you going to compete with me for such a lazy horse?"
Gu Shizhang chuckled, he touched Teng Yunwu's mane, and said nonchalantly, "Speaking of which, when I first saw Teng Yunwu, I felt familiar with him, I always felt that--"
Ye Tianhui listened, and her heart moved.
However, she naturally did not show any emotion, as if she did not care at all and said, "What do you feel?"
Gu Shizhang: "I always feel that I have a connection with it, maybe it was my biological son in my previous life?"
Ye Tianhui: "..."
She looked at him with an indescribable look: "A horse, your son?"
He really could imagine, where did he have a son in his previous life, no sons or daughters, nothing!
Gu Shizhang sighed: "That's right, how could it be possible, where would I get a son?"
Ye Tianhui: "Don't talk about these nonsense, I have to take a shower."
She immediately handed Teng Yunwu to the staff, and she also prepared to go to the stable to take a shower. She brought a change of clothes with her, and it was easy to take a shower anyway.
In no time, she finished washing and blew her hair with a hair dryer.
After blowing it, she felt refreshed and comfortable.
When she walked out of the bathroom, it was already evening. The sun, which was a little dazzling before, turned into a warm red. The brilliant light covered the distant racetrack, and the stable was also covered with a layer of hazy red light.
Gu Shizhang leaned against a palm tree, one hand in his pocket, wearing a white casual outfit, looking calm and relaxed.
He lowered his eyes, apparently waiting for her quietly. He
raised his eyes to look at her when he heard the noise.
When their eyes met, a warm arc appeared at the corner of his lips: "Are you done with the shower?"
Ye Tianhui: "Yeah."
She didn't think much of it at first, but she had just finished taking a shower here and saw a man waiting for her at the door, which would definitely cause some ambiguous associations.
Gu Shizhang smiled and said, "Are you hungry? Let's go eat something."
Ye Tianhui: "Let's go see Teng Yunwu first, and then go eat?"
Gu Shizhang: "Okay."
The two of them went to Teng Yunwu's stable. The horse had been carefully taken care of, bathed, covered with a horse blanket, and comfortably lying on a bed made of imported straw, closing his eyes and dozing off, looking very comfortable.
Ye Tianhui sighed and said helplessly: "Teng Yunwu, Teng Yunwu..."
Everyone said that Teng Yunwu was lazy, but she didn't understand it, but now she knows it.
You have to know that this is not a person, this is a horse. How can a horse lie down for nothing? People usually sleep standing up, okay?
How can there be such a carefree horse lying there and sleeping soundly!
Gu Shizhang laughed from the side: "Yes, how can there be such a lazy horse? It seems that it must not have been my son in its previous life."
Ye Tianhui looked away: "Don't dislike my horse!"
Gu Shizhang lowered his voice and said: "Let it sleep, go out first?"
Ye Tianhui looked at Teng Yunwu, who looked very comfortable and obviously had no time to pay attention to the two of them.
She frowned, both amused and helpless: "Let's go."
Gu Shizhang took her hand and went out, slightly raised his eyebrows, looking at her with a smile.
She was concerned about this horse, but this horse was heartless.
Ye Tianhui felt it: "Don't laugh at me!"
Gu Shizhang bowed his head slightly and smiled in her ear: "You deserve it, tit for tat."
Ye Tianhui raised her eyebrows: "How did I offend you?"
The sunset was magnificent, the wind blew the palm tree leaves, making a rustling sound, Gu Shizhang smiled: "You offended me everywhere."
He once again thought of Ye Lixuan's evaluation of her, mean, cunning, money-obsessed, unlearned, ambitious, vulgar and violent...
The gentle and elegant Ye Lixuan probably never thought that he would have a daughter in his life.
Ye Tianhui slowly looked away from him: "Hmm?"
Gu Shizhang: "Heartless."
Ye Tianhui snorted: "You have a heart and lungs, okay!"
As she said this, their eyes met inadvertently in mid-air.
Then, as if there was an electric shock, her sight froze, and her brain was dull for a moment.
There was an indescribable taste in Gu Shizhang's eyes.
Under the gaze of such a pair of eyes, she would think of a lot of things at once, such as the clear and transparent waterfall of Qinglongling Wanquanjian, such as the battlements of the steep city walls of the border city with mulberry trees, and such as the autumn rainy night outside the post station.
She slowly broke free from the control of that gaze on herself, then looked away, and said as if nothing had happened: "I'm hungry, let's eat."
However, he bent down, tilted his head slightly, and kissed her lips.
The autumn wind blew in the evening, and the air was filled with the scent of hay and stables, but the touch of the dragonfly on her lips made Ye Tianhui feel very comfortable.
She raised her face, closed her eyes, and in the sound of the palm tree leaves colliding, she clearly understood who had kissed her lips after thousands of years.
And she fell in this kiss, her body and soul falling together.
Maybe after ten thousand years, he finally withdrew gently.
Ye Tianhui opened her eyes and saw that he was still looking down at her. Spots
of light fell from the sparse leaves. He had a high nose bone, slightly deep eye sockets, and looked very dignified and elegant.
The way he looked at her was intoxicating.
Ye Tianhui: "Hmm?"
Gu Shizhang put his forehead against hers and said affectionately: "I just suddenly wanted to kiss you."
Then he smiled: "Let's go, let's go eat."
***********
When eating, they happened to meet Meng Yinian. Gu Shizhang and Meng Yinian were old acquaintances. Ye Tianhui also wanted to find out some information from Meng Yinian, so they naturally ate together.
At the dinner table, Meng Yinian was interested in talking to Ye Tianhui, obviously wanting to find out the news.
This was a coincidence, Ye Tianhui also wanted to find out the news, and the two of them quickly got along well at the dinner table.
Meng Yinian wanted to find out the relationship between Ye Tianhui and Gu Shizhang. He was obviously very puzzled as to how they knew each other.
He said incredulously: "We have known each other since school. I have known since childhood that he is a natural monk."
Ye Tianhui: "Monk?"
Meng Yinian: "He is like a holy monk. He is a Buddha who has cultivated himself. He has no interest in girls. He is not a human being!"
Ye Tianhui actually agreed with Meng Yinian's words in part. In his previous life, he was an emperor. When an emperor wants three palaces, six courtyards and seventy-two concubines, isn't that a side job? If you don't want them, all the civil and military officials will be eager to help you fill them.
But he doesn't have them. He is pure and unselfish all day long.
If he is not a monk, then what is he?
Besides, in this life, she took the initiative to seduce him, but failed. Is she still a man?
Although Ye Tianhui didn't say these words, her eyes were very obvious. She looked at Gu Shizhang with some condemnation.
Gu Shizhang raised his eyebrows slightly, puzzled.
He is pure-hearted and doesn't like women, what's wrong with that?
Ye Tianhui retracted her gaze and continued chatting with Meng Yinian. The two of them chatted more and more speculatively, talking about his and Gu Shizhang's youth, their horse racing career, and their past experiences.
Gu Shizhang listened from the side and heard that their topic started with Meng Yinian trying to test Ye Tianhui, but Ye Tianhui followed the topic and talked about horse racing. Unknowingly, it became Meng Yinian who talked about horse racing to Ye Tianhui, and occasionally Ye Tianhui asked a few questions. Gu Shizhang's
lips curled up slightly.
He thought, Ye Tianhui is like this, she looks like the most innocent and the easiest to be fooled in the world, but in fact she is full of tricks.
Any liar who is not smart enough to cheat her will be exposed by her.
At this time, the two of them had already talked about this year's competition. Ye Tianhui naturally asked Meng Yinian with admiration, "Since you have so many good horses in your British horse farm, you must be in the limelight."
Meng Yinian also gave a general explanation. It turned out that he brought a total of six horses back from the UK this time, and the most outstanding one was the horse Haiwan Jinguang.
Ye Tianhui's heart moved when she heard about Haiwan Jinguang.
The information that Gu Shizhang gave her introduced Haiwan Jinguang in detail.
This six-year-old Haiwan Jinguang has competed overseas twelve times, and has won three championships, one runner-up, six third places and one first place in the UK. At the same time, during the five-day Ascot race in the UK, he competed in the 1,200-meter Grade 1 Golden Jubilee Stakes and the 1,000-meter Grade 2 King's Stakes, and won the second and first place results respectively.
Such a good horse has now been brought from the UK to Hong Kong to represent the Meng family. Isn't the Meng family just lying down and collecting money?
Ye Tianhui remained calm and continued to chat. Meng Yinian talked about his horses in general, and finally changed the topic to Ye Tianhui.
Ye Tianhui: "All my subordinates are old, weak, sick and disabled..."
She said without saying anything: "If you can participate, then participate. If you can't participate,
then don't participate. You know, besides the light that Shi Zhang gave me, my Black Rose and my Hell King are all very troublesome." Meng Yinian: "Since you can buy the Hell King, you should be sure to tame it, right?"
This was very tentative.
Ye Tianhui: "It's quite a headache. If it were you, what would you do?"
Meng Yinian laughed when he heard it. He smiled and looked at Gu Shizhang on the side: "Ask Shi Zhang, I never dare to provoke such a fierce horse."
Obviously Meng Yinian was unwilling to take up this topic, so Ye Tianhui gave up and mentioned the arrangements for this season instead.
Gu Shizhang suddenly said, "The prize money for this horse racing season is very generous. You two should work hard."
When he said this, Meng Yinian and Ye Tianhui all looked over, puzzled.
Gu Shizhang: "Did I forget to tell you?"
Ye Tianhui's eyes turned cold. Forgot to tell you?
Meng Yinian: "What?"
Gu Shizhang pondered for a moment before saying, "Last time I went to the UK for work, I happened to meet Mr. Mo, the CEO of the Hong Kong Jockey Club. We talked about it. He said that the Jockey Club will make major changes to the prize money this year, but the specific situation needs to wait for the official announcement of the Jockey Club later."
Meng Yinian understood. It was obvious that the Jockey Club was only studying it and had not yet officially come to a conclusion, so the news was kept secret.
However, since Gu Shizhang mentioned it now, it is estimated that he will make an official announcement.
Ye Tianhui was curious: "Is the so-called big change in the bonus going to increase or decrease?"
She was still thinking that she could make more money this time, so that she could give red envelopes to everyone.
Gu Shizhang chuckled and said, "As long as the horse runs fast, there will be a lot of money to be made, and there will be many opportunities, and money of various names."
Ye Tianhui: !!!
Very good, her horse must run fast.
She wants to get rich.
Gu Shizhang sighed and said helplessly: "Don't think about the bonus all the time."
Ye Tianhui: "Then what should I think about?"
Gu Shizhang smiled at her and said: "Use your own brain."
Ye Tianhui snorted and muttered: "...Why is it like this? People who don't know would think you are a teacher and you still need to be patient and teach them?"
The two of them talked back and forth, and Meng Yinian couldn't help but sigh as he watched from the side.
He had known Gu Shizhang for many years, and in his memory, Gu Shizhang had always been reserved and light. No matter how familiar he was with someone, he felt that there was a layer of indifference between them, as if they were here to experience hardships and would return in a few days. So no matter who they were, he felt that the friendship between gentlemen was as light as water.
As a result, now, he suddenly got a girlfriend. The key is to see how he gets along with this girlfriend -
they actually started to quarrel!
What's more important is that even when they quarrel, the look in their eyes and the tone of their voices carry a bit of the sweet and sour taste of love!
Suddenly, I feel that I am redundant.
********
Getting rich overnight is Ye Tianhui's dream.
Now that this dream is within reach, I have to plan seriously and work hard.
Ye Tianhui pondered Gu Shizhang's words and understood what he meant. However, it is useless to think so much at this stage. I still have to tame the horse first.
She was more and more concerned about the horses under her command. She was not optimistic, but not completely hopeless. As long as they were properly trained and everything went according to her plan, those horses would probably give her very good results in this season.
She had also studied the schedule. As Gu Shizhang said, there were many competitions of various names. If she could not participate in the first-class international competitions with those horses in the first class, she could participate in the competitions of lower classes. Even if the prize money was less, she might still win.
Of course, for the reputation of the Ye family and to become famous, she still had to participate in some key competitions.
In short, she had to show some results.
For a while, Ye Tianhui was eager to try. She spent several days in the horse farm, with the horses, and trained with them.
Until today, which was Saturday, she gave everyone a day off, and she herself was finally able to take a break.
At this time, Jiang Lingfeng sent a message that the snakehead Li San had been found.
Ye Tianhui immediately asked Jiang Lingfeng to help her make an appointment at a quiet coffee shop, and then she left the Ye family and took a taxi to meet Li San.
In the past, she had nothing, and with a yearning for Hong Kong, she landed from Yuen Long, and ended up finding the snakehead Li San.
Now she is the daughter of the Ye family, and has certain resources in her hands. Seeing Li San peeking out of the door of the coffee shop, she naturally has a different feeling.
Li San walked into the coffee shop, and was obviously surprised to see Ye Tianhui at first, and more of a guilty conscience.
Ye Tianhui used to wear shabby clothes, and it was obvious that she was from the mainland. But now, he looked at Ye Tianhui in front of him. She was wearing an international brand suit and gorgeous accessories. Her temperament was completely different. She was the temperament of a rich lady.
And she sat in the coffee shop, sipping coffee calmly, as if she had always lived such a wealthy life.
If he hadn't known it in advance, he wouldn't have believed that this was the mainland girl in the past!
Li San looked at Ye Tianhui, feeling guilty and a little curious, and just stood there nervously.
Ye Tianhui raised her eyes and smiled, "Brother Li San, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
Li San was flattered, he didn't expect to be called "brother" by this rich lady, he nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine now, very fine."
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Fine, right? Did you do a lot of sneaky things, or robbed some mainland girl of her money?"
She raised her eyebrows, "Or, but which mainland girl did you trick into being your girlfriend?"
Li San was so scared that his face turned pale, "Miss, don't joke, how dare I, how dare I!"
Ye Tianhui: "It was just a joke."
Li San wiped his sweat.
He was also bitter in his heart.
He didn't really rob her money at that time, it was clearly she who robbed his money!
How could such a thing happen in the world? She stole my money, but she still mocked me for stealing her money. Meeting her is really a ghost, a big loss!
Ye Tianhui asked Li San to sit down and poured him a cup of coffee, and then said: "Actually, I need your help with something."
Li San was puzzled: "What is it?"
Ye Tianhui: "After the matter is completed, the reward is 10,000 Hong Kong dollars."
10,000 Hong Kong dollars?
Li San's back straightened up immediately, and his eyes widened: "Is it true?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and took out an envelope directly from her bag: "There are 2,000 Hong Kong dollars and 20 redwood fish in it. This is the deposit."
Li San's eyes lit up and stared at the bulging envelope.
Ye Tianhui: "But let me make it clear first, you should know my methods. If you dare to have evil intentions--"
She chuckled, looked at Li San in front of her, and said: "Then I will search all over Hong Kong and find you, and make you pay the price."
These words were said coldly and sonorously, and Li San immediately remembered the tragic memory of the past.
At that time, he was forced to lie in bed for five or six days by this young lady!
He hurriedly said: "Young lady, there is no deal without a fight. You and I are also old friends. If you want to do something, just tell me. I am willing to serve you even if I have to sacrifice my life."
Ye Tianhui: "You don't have to serve me like a dog or a horse, but I want to ask you, do you have a few relatives in Guangdong?"
Li San nodded: "Yes, yes, relatives! Of course I do."
Ye Tianhui: "Do those relatives have some ability to help you bring people from Guangdong?"
Li San smiled: "My background is well known to the eldest lady, and there is nothing I can hide from you."
Ye Tianhui certainly knew Li San's background. At that time, she was able to get Li San's information in Guangdong because someone there made the connection.
She nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, now I need you to help me pick up someone from Guangzhou and bring him to Hong Kong."
Li San: "Pick up people? Isn't that my specialty? There is definitely no problem with this!"
Ye Tianhui said lightly: "I need this person to come to Hong Kong alive. As long as she is alive, it doesn't matter if she has missing arms and legs, but she must be alive."
Li San was surprised when he heard it, surprised by the coldness in Ye Tianhui's tone and the unquestionable domineering.
He was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, Miss, you tell me, you tell me about that person's situation, I will help you find someone."
***********
What is called cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron, this is it.
She wants to drag Ye Wenyin's biological mother Feng Suqin to Hong Kong.
Feng Suqin tortured her a lot in those years. Although she didn't suffer too much with her own ability, she was inevitably dumb when she was young, and then she had to endure it for various reasons.
Now she has to deal with Ye Wenyin, so naturally Feng Suqin has to watch with her own eyes, watching her half-life expectations come to nothing after all her calculations.
And the appearance of Feng Suqin, such a living mother, will naturally make Ye Wenyin's position more and more embarrassing.
By then, even if the old man calculates more, I'm afraid he won't be able to tolerate it.
A mainland mother of Ye Wenyin, this means that Ye Wenyin's identity has been thrown out on the table.
Ye Tianhui was very satisfied with this, just waiting for Feng Suqin to drop from the sky and give everyone in the Ye family a big surprise.
For a moment, she thought of Ye Lixuan again. He was on a business trip recently and was probably still angry with her.
But who cares about him, she just did it anyway.
Who knew that the next morning, when she was about to go downstairs, she heard noises in the living room. She thought it was Ye Wenyin, so she didn't take it too seriously. As a result, after going downstairs, she saw that it was Ye Lixuan.
Ye Lixuan had obviously just entered the house, pushing a suitcase, and had just changed into slippers.
One was standing on the stairs, the other was standing at the entrance of the living room. Suddenly, they met and their eyes met. Ye Tianhui was slightly stunned.
Why did he come back so suddenly?
