Chapter 71

On this day, Ye Wenyong convened a meeting of the horse management company, and Ye Tianhui also went to the company for a meeting. Now the racing season is about to start, and the racehorses under Ye's company have already started to register.

However, because the schedule of the season has not yet been announced, which horse will participate in which race, the overall strategy arrangement, all these need to wait for the specific schedule to be announced.

Ye Tianhui has a feeling that Ye Wenyong has probably already obtained the schedule in advance and started to study it privately.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, it's just a matter of one day earlier or later.

During the meeting, Ye Wenyong asked casually: "Tianhui, now we have to select the horses for the race, we have to start the registration, how is the training of your Hell King going?"

Ye Tianhui: "Not bad, now he can take the reins, and knows to obey the rider's orders, I think he has made great progress."

When she said this, several riders looked at each other, and everyone's faces were more or less schadenfreude, waiting to see the show.

After all, the progress that Ye Tianhui said is what every horse should have, it is the most basic, and the result is worth her talking about?

Ye Wenyong was relieved to hear this, it seems that the Hell King is not to be feared

Ye Tianhui actually said this on purpose.

If she was evasive, people would be suspicious and would investigate. Now that she has directly reported the training progress, people will not think too much.

Obviously, considering the problem from the worst perspective, Ye Wenyong wants to weaken her power as much as possible. He can not win, but he does not want Ye Tianhui to be in the limelight.

So at this stage, what Ye Tianhui wants is for Ye Wenyong to quickly register for the King of Hell for her, at least to fight for this opportunity first.

Ye Wenyong pondered for a moment, then said: "But your other two horses have already taken up two places. If the King of Hell also signs up, then our chances will be even less." Ye

Tianhui: "What do you mean, do you mean I only have two places?"

She chuckled: "If you say so, then I have to ask the old man."

Ye Wenyong said hurriedly: "Why are you in such a hurry? Aren't we discussing this? You can't complain to the old man about everything, right?" Ye

Tianhui certainly didn't want to complain to the old man, complaining was useless.

The key is to scare him. Ye Wenyong stopped.

Seeing that he was willing to negotiate everything, she took advantage of the situation and said, "Okay, Brother Wenyong, you tell me what to do with this quota. I'm listening to you, right?"

Ye Wenyong then said, "Actually, I was thinking that if I rashly sign up for Hell King, my riders wouldn't be convinced. Your Hell King doesn't need to be too good, after all, it's your horse. I should give you this quota, but it can't be too bad, otherwise it will be pulled out. "If he goes, he will still lose our Ye family in the end?"

Ye Tianhui: "So?"

Ye Wenyong said: "So I'm considering letting the Hell King participate in a competition, just an ordinary three-shift horse competition. As long as he wins, this opportunity will be his. Then I can at least suppress those jockeys, so that they won't have too much resentment, don't you think?"

Ye Tianhui listened and naturally understood that this so-called "three-shift horse" competition might have a mystery.

But now she is also thinking that the Hell King should accept a certain test.

If he can't do it, it is very likely that he will have to give up this season.

He said immediately: "Okay, you tell me, which competition?"

Ye Wenyong nodded slightly, and then said: "There is a three-shift horse competition tomorrow, let the Hell King try it?"

Ye Tianhui: "Three-shift horse?"

She didn't rush to agree.

Assistant Yang winked at Ye Tianhui.

Ye Tianhui pretended not to know and said, "That's fine."

Assistant Yang said helplessly, "Miss Tianhui, shouldn't we wait and see how the three-shift race goes tomorrow before making a decision?"

Hearing this, Ye Wenyong glanced at Assistant Yang and said, "This matter still has to be decided by Tianhui, time is urgent."

Ye Tianhui: "Then it's settled, let the Hell King participate in tomorrow's three-shift race."

Assistant Yang looked a little helpless, but as an assistant, he couldn't say anything.

Seeing this, Ye Wenyong smiled and said, "Okay, if he wins, we'll give the Hell King a spot, if he loses, the spot will be given to someone else."

Ye Tianhui: "Okay."

So later in the meeting, Ye Wenyong announced this to the other people under his command.

Ye Tianhui could clearly feel that when the riders heard this, they all looked excited.

Obviously, they didn't think that the King of Hell could win. They thought that the place in the competition would definitely fall to them. They might even be planning how to fight for that place.

Back in the office, Ye Tianhui looked at Assistant Yang who was hesitant to speak: "What's wrong?"

Assistant Yang: "Tomorrow's competition is not easy. It is almost impossible for the King of Hell to win."

In fact, Ye Tianhui was quite satisfied with Assistant Yang's performance today. At least he still wanted to remind himself.

It seems that this is a smart person who knows which ship he is on.

In this annual horse racing season, it is a carnival in the horse racing world. If you win, everyone will get a high prize. If you are lucky, you don't have to worry about your life. Assistant Yang is very clear-headed and knows where to eat, so she won't eat outside.

She is still satisfied with this. After all, she also wants to slowly develop her own power.

She asked Assistant Yang: "What is the situation of tomorrow's race? You analyze it."

Assistant Yang said: "Although tomorrow's race is just an ordinary three-class horse race, there is a horse that is sure to win. That horse is Palace music bought by the Ning family from the United States."

Ye Tianhui: "Oh."

Ye Tianhui knows Palace music.

This horse was bought by the Meng family from a famous American auction. It is the son of the famous American horse Danzig. It once won impressive results in American horse racing. Later, it was bred with the three-time champion horse Man o' War, and thus Palace Music was born.

Obviously, the Ning family spent a lot of money to buy Palace Music. Now Palace Music has just turned three years old and has already made its debut in several class races with impressive results.

This little stallion is from a famous family, has won many battles, and is naturally proud. I heard that he has a bad temper.

Now the Ning family also wants to participate in various types of competitions for this little stallion before the season to increase his on-site experience. Obviously, the little stallion will participate in this three-class horse competition with a heavy responsibility, which can be regarded as a test for this little stallion.

Ye Tianhui smiled: "The King of Hell versus Palace Music is also quite interesting."

One is unruly and irritable, and the other is noble and proud. Both owners want to test their own racehorses. It is also quite interesting to see these two horses meet.

Assistant Yang looked at Ye Tianhui's interested expression and sighed, "I know that Hell King has improved a lot now, but that Palace Music is really hard to beat. It is very powerful. Even under a heavy load, Hell King may not be able to win."

Obviously, Assistant Yang also has some expectations for Hell King. As long as he signs up, it is always possible.

But if Hell King wants to win Palace Music, it is absolutely impossible, and Hell King will lose the spot this time.

At this time, Ye Tianhui's Hell King has healed the psychological damage and initially felt pleasure on the track. Its nature has begun to show, but in order to stimulate greater potential, it needs to realize the diversity of this world.

It thinks how good it is, it even starts to be proud, so now it needs the provocation from the young stallion to let it know that it needs to raise its hooves and catch up.

So Ye Tianhui wants to give it a try, let the King of Hell go against the arrogant and noble Palace music.

If he wins, it will open a new chapter in life.

If he loses, then he will shrink back, make up his mind, and start all over again.

In this way, they can also reflect on their own training methods, whether there is a problem somewhere, and see how to improve it.

However, she did not explain too much to Assistant Yang, but just asked Assistant Yang to arrange the competition for the next day.

After Assistant Yang went out, she called Lao Zhou and mentioned tomorrow's competition.

Lao Zhou thought about it carefully and agreed: "I know that horse Palace Music. We can give it a try. We may lose, but I think we can still win."

The two of them talked carefully about tomorrow's strategy and the riders.

Lao Zhou hesitated and chose Chen Zongwan.

He felt that Lin Jianquan's combat experience was still insufficient, so he wanted Chen Zongwan to ride the Hell King.

Ye Tianhui naturally had no objection to this. After all, Lao Zhou had more contact with the two riders, and he also knew the temperament of the Hell King better.

Old Zhou immediately went to make arrangements. Ye Tianhui hung up the phone. At this time, Assistant Yang had already found the relevant information about Palace musi, including feeding information and competition training information.

Ye Tianhui thanked him with satisfaction and took it to study it carefully. While

looking at it, the phone rang.

Ye Tianhui picked it up, and it was Gu Shizhang.

Ye Tianhui was busy these days, and Gu Shizhang probably didn't show up much because of the injury on his face, so they didn't see each other much, but the two of them would talk on the phone every day.

Sometimes they would chat for half an hour, and their feelings were getting better and better. They liked each other so much that they wanted to talk all the time.

On the phone, Gu Shizhang's voice was warm and pleasant, with a gentle smile: "Do you have time today?"

Ye Tianhui: "Why, you want to date me? Is your face better? Are you willing to go out?"

Gu Shizhang snorted: "You are just gloating."

Ye Tianhui laughed: "How could it be, I feel sorry for you when I think of you!"

Gu Shizhang: "Okay, little liar, don't say insincerely. Seriously, a shop opened nearby The restaurant tastes good. Can I take you to try it? "

Ye Tianhui thought of her agreement with Ye Lixuan: "I don't want it anymore. I plan to pick up my dad, and we will probably eat together with him. "

After hearing this, Gu Shizhang paused for a moment and said calmly: "The relationship between your father and daughter has been good recently.

Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Of course, it's my daddy. " "

Gu Shizhang listened, but he felt bad in his heart.

When she arrived in Xiangjiang, he was the first to know her, and he had been carefully helping her. At that time, she didn't have this daddy at all, and this daddy didn't do anything for her, and even kicked her out of the car.

Now that their father and daughter have recognized each other, they are so close, which makes people feel sad.

Ye Tianhui sensed Gu Shizhang's emotions to some extent, so she said, "Shizhang, don't think too much. Actually, I want to coax him more recently and make him happy, so that he will agree to our relationship, don't you think?"

Gu Shizhang said, "I want to go to your house and visit Grandpa Ye in the future. What do you think?"

Ye Tianhui: "Visit my grandpa? Why do you suddenly bring this up?"

Gu Shizhang pondered for a moment and said, "He is your father, and I naturally respect him, so I hope to get his consent, so that you won't be embarrassed. But if his attitude continues to be tough, then I will inevitably want to follow the old man's path. It's not that I have no choice, but I just don't want to make you uncomfortable."

"So if possible, I will talk to Mr. Ye and make our relationship official."

Ye Tianhui was a little nervous after hearing this: "Announce? Do we have to make it official so soon?"

She certainly understood that dating and falling in love in private was one thing, but making it official was another. If it

was officially announced, it would be a matter between the families, and the two people would be completely tied together, and there would be no room for regret. Once they regretted, it would hurt the friendship between the two families, which Ye Tianhui naturally did not want.

Gu Shizhang naturally felt her retreat and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What's wrong? You don't want to officially announce our relationship. Do you want to keep it unclear with me? Secretly?"

Ye Tianhui felt a little guilty.

She naturally liked Gu Shizhang and was full of longing for their current relationship, but there were still too many uncertainties between the two of them. Not to mention the various things about the Gu and Ye families, the differences in generation, etc., just talking about the previous life was a problem.

Maybe he would never mention it, but she understood what was going on between them, and she also understood that he understood.

This was a delicate matter. If they kept it a secret from each other for a lifetime, they could just pretend to be stupid and get along like this, but once it was announced, she didn't know how to face the relationship between the two of them.

Because if that's the case, if she wants to go on, she must explain her past life clearly.

But can she explain her past life clearly? The mutual vigilance and caution, the fixed mode of interaction between the monarch and his subjects, she feels that she can't get out of the self-positioning of General Ye in her past life, and she doesn't know if she can still treat him with the casual attitude she has now.

So this matter can't be rushed, it's too hasty, the relationship between the two people has progressed to a certain point, and she doesn't know what to do.

So she coaxed him in a low voice: "It's not underground, don't be anxious, you bypass my dad like this, he will definitely be unhappy, it's also very disrespectful to him, anyway, give him some time, I believe I can convince him."

Gu Shizhang paused after hearing this and said nothing.

Ye Tianhui probed: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

Gu Shizhang finally spoke: "I also hope you can convince him. Well, you go and convince him. I'm fine with it, whether it's advance or retreat."

Ye Tianhui: "Okay, anyway, we can discuss it slowly. This is not something to rush."

​​Gu Shizhang listened to this and sighed: "Well, I understand."

*********

In the evening, Ye Tianhui was about to leave, but Ye Lixuan called: "When will you pick me up?"

Ye Tianhui: "I was just about to leave."

Ye Lixuan: "I suddenly changed my mind and decided to go to another restaurant. I'll pick you up and we'll go directly there."

Ye Tianhui: "Huh?"

She wondered: "Why do you change your mind three times a day?" Ye

Lixuan: "I think that one is delicious."

Ye Tianhui: "Okay."

Ye Tianhui packed her things and went to Ye Lixuan's school. After picking up Ye Lixuan, Ye Lixuan led the way and Ye Tianhui drove to the restaurant. It took only about 20 minutes for the two of them to arrive at a hotel.

This hotel should be of some level, with luxurious decoration and looks very upscale.

Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "You're treating me."

Ye Lixuan: "I see, little scoundrel."

Ye Tianhui: "Gu Shizhang said you're very rich!"

Ye Lixuan listened and his expression turned cold: "It's none of his business whether I have money or not."

Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go in and have dinner."

The two of them went to the restaurant together, but as soon as they entered, they saw three people walking towards them.

Among the three people, one was Meng Yinian, another seemed to be the son of the Li family, and the other was Gu Shizhang.

Ye Tianhui was surprised and raised her eyebrows in astonishment.

Gu Shizhang was also surprised to see them, and his eyes quickly passed over Ye Lixuan and finally fell on Ye Tianhui's face.

Ye Lixuan naturally felt it and said in a low voice, "What a coincidence, you guys are here for dinner too?"

Meng Yinian was obviously even more surprised. He knew that Gu Shizhang and Ye Lixuan's daughter were together, and he was wondering what the Ye family would think of this matter, especially whether Ye Lixuan would accept it. However, he never expected that he would meet Ye Lixuan by chance today!

He and Ye Lixuan were not very familiar with each other, but they knew each other. Although the Meng and Ye families were in a competitive relationship, they would naturally greet each other politely when they met on the scene. At that time, he smiled and exchanged a few words, but his eyes were scanning between Gu Shizhang and Ye Lixuan.

He obviously wanted to watch the excitement, to see how these "potential father-in-law and son-in-law" got along, and to see if Ye Lixuan would accept it.

Looking at him like this, he saw that Ye Lixuan had a cold expression and didn't even look at Gu Shizhang. Instead, Gu Shizhang greeted him politely.

As for Ye Lixuan, he just nodded slightly, and his attitude clearly showed that he didn't take Gu Shizhang seriously at all.

Mr. Li didn't know the details and was obviously surprised. He didn't understand why Ye Lixuan was like this. Meng Yinian, however, was very happy in his heart!

Gu Shizhang was actually dating someone's daughter. Now that he met someone's father, he could only lower his posture and be careful. Otherwise, what else could he do?

Ye Lixuan was calm and composed. He smiled and introduced them, "This is my daughter, Ye Tianhui."

Seeing this, Meng Yinian naturally greeted them and said with a smile that he had met her before. He also praised Ye Tianhui for being pretty and capable.

In fact, everyone knew about the Ye family, and they also knew that this daughter of the Ye family who had just come from the mainland had already started working at the Ye family horse company. Of course, Mr. Li also knew about it, so he couldn't help but congratulate them on the reunion of father and daughter, saying that Ye Lixuan was lucky to have such a capable daughter.

Ye Tianhui felt a little guilty and could feel Gu Shizhang's melancholy.

As her boyfriend, he might have felt jealous for no reason when he saw her leave him behind to have dinner with her dad despite her dad's objection.

But after a moment of guilt, she felt that she was aboveboard.

What's the big deal? This is her biological father, her biological father! Are

you so petty, Gu Shizhang?

What's wrong with me coaxing my biological father?

Should I keep coaxing you instead of coaxing my biological father?

Thinking of this, she simply put her arms around Ye Lixuan's arm, stood beside Ye Lixuan affectionately, and greeted Mr. Li and Meng Yinian.

Ye Lixuan was naturally very satisfied with this. He glanced at Gu Shizhang indifferently, and then led Ye Tianhui to the private room amid everyone's envious and congratulatory eyes.

Meng Yinian looked at Gu Shizhang with a little embarrassment, but saw that Gu Shizhang's eyes followed the direction where the father and daughter disappeared, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, and his expression was even more gloomy.

He sighed in his heart, he doesn't even have a proper identity!

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

During the meal, Ye Lixuan went out to the bathroom. He stood there and waited for a while, and sure enough, he saw Gu Shizhang.

He looked at him indifferently.

Gu Shizhang came over and greeted him.

In the past, Gu Shizhang called him Lixuan, and they called each other by their names, but now it is obviously not appropriate to call each other like that.

But calling him uncle directly seems even more inappropriate.

After all, the two parties were originally peers, and Ye Lixuan did not admit it. It seemed wrong for him to call him uncle so immediately, so he could only avoid this question for the time being.

Ye Lixuan looked at him coldly: "I have a question for you."

Gu Shizhang: "Please go ahead."

Ye Lixuan said, "Two days ago, Tianhui came to see you?"

Gu Shizhang was quite cautious when he heard this: "Yes, she thought I was injured and wanted to come to see me."

Ye Lixuan: "She also brought you some soup, and she seemed to care about you."

Gu Shizhang felt that something was wrong with this, so he said, "I guess it was a misunderstanding, thinking that I was seriously injured, but it was just a flesh wound, nothing serious."

Ye Lixuan sighed, "He really cares about you."

Gu Shizhang felt that there was a hint of bitterness in his voice, and he was a little helpless, so he wanted to explain.

Unexpectedly, Ye Lixuan said, "You must be very touched, he cares about you so much."

Gu Shizhang frowned slightly when he heard this and looked at Ye Lixuan.

He couldn't tell the other party's intention for a moment. There was no unhappiness in his tone. What was Ye Lixuan thinking?

At this time, Ye Lixuan suddenly asked: "Why, she sent you a pot of soup, aren't you touched?"

Gu Shizhang said implicitly: "Of course I am touched."

Ye Lixuan: "Then do you know why she sent you a pot of soup?"

Gu Shizhang naturally felt that the other party had bad intentions, and he remained calm at the moment: "I really don't know, maybe she wants me to replenish my body, right?"

Ye Lixuan heard what Gu Shizhang said, chuckled, and finally said: "Here, take a look. "

As he said this, he took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Gu Shizhang.

Gu Shizhang took it doubtfully, opened it, and saw a photo inside.

It was a photo of himself, in profile, with his living room in the background, and Gu Zhifan talking to him next to him.

Because of the sunlight, the bruises on his profile were particularly conspicuous, as if they were painted.

Gu Shizhang raised his eyes and slowly looked at Ye Lixuan.

Ye Lixuan smiled and said, "I almost didn't recognize this photo when I saw it. Is this you? It looks wonderful, right? She ran to find you that day, and was so anxious. Was she doing this because she felt sorry for you and cared about you, or did she want to admire your heroic appearance after you were beaten? "

Gu Shizhang looked at Ye Lixuan expressionlessly: "This photo was indeed taken by Tianhui for me."

Ye Lixuan: "Her interests are really special."

Gu Shizhang smiled and said: "Yes, I like people with this kind of special personality. I feel something is wrong if she doesn't surprise me one day."

Ye Lixuan raised his eyebrows.

Gu Shizhang: "She has a really bad temper, she is cunning, money-obsessed, ignorant, ambitious, vulgar and violent, and no one can figure out her mind. "

Ye Lixuan's expression changed slightly, and his eyes were fixed on Gu Shizhang.

This is what he said before. He mentioned his daughter's evaluation of Ye Tianhui to Gu Shizhang, and he repeated it verbatim.

Gu Shizhang looked at Ye Lixuan and said, "But I can bear it if I have a girlfriend like this. It's no big deal. At least--"

He smiled and said slowly, "It seems that she is very interested in my different looks, right?"
