Chapter 65 Can you please stop bothering me?
The horse farm is located dozens of kilometers from the city center, and we arrived at the farm during the hottest part of the day.
After parking the car, Xie Nanzhi and Xibei, guided by the staff, arrived at the advanced riding track, where guests who ride horses are all highly skilled.
The sun shines brightly, and a gentle breeze caresses the face.
Xibei looked around but couldn't find David. "Nanzhi, I'll call Mr. David."
Xie Nanzhi: "Okay."
Xi Bei went to a quiet spot to make a phone call, while Xie Nanzhi stood waiting. Suddenly, her gaze inadvertently fell upon an acquaintance.
Shen Xu.
Xie Nanzhi frowned and instinctively turned her body to the side, but she was still seen by the other party.
She heard Shen Xu calling out to her from afar, "Nanzhi."
Then, he walked over to Xie Nanzhi and asked warmly, "Nanzhi, what a coincidence to meet you here. Did you specifically choose this horse farm?"
Shen Xu loves horseback riding, and Xie Nanzhi was taught horseback riding by Shen Xu. When they were dating, he often brought her to this horse farm to ride horses.
I never expected to have such bad luck today, to run into him here.
Compared to Shen Xu's enthusiasm, Xie Nanzhi's attitude was completely different; she displayed impatience and indifference to the fullest extent.
Seeing that Xie Nanzhi was ignoring him, Shen Xu wasn't angry. "Nanzhi, even if we've broken up, we can still be friends, right?"
Xie Nanzhi took a deep breath and said coldly, "You're overthinking it. I don't have a penchant for being friends with my ex-boyfriends."
Xie Nanzhi turned directly to the other side, showing Shen Xu her back.
There was still a hint of loneliness in her eyes, but Shen Xu not only had no self-awareness, he also walked around to her and said, "Nanzhi, shall we have a competition later? Let's see if your horsemanship has improved since three years ago."
Shen Xu was born into the Hong Kong entertainment circle as a young master. His privileged background gave him an innate sense of nobility and social standing.
He stood before Xie Nanzhi, dressed in a silver-white riding outfit and a black helmet, making him the center of attention in the entire riding arena.
Xie Nanzhi had to admit that Shen Xu's physical appearance was excellent; otherwise, Xie Xiyan wouldn't have been so determined to marry him.
However, times have changed.
When Xie Nanzhi loved him, he was an untouchable star in the sky, worthy of her admiration. But if she no longer loved him, no matter how good Shen Xu's conditions were, in Xie Nanzhi's eyes he was nothing more than a lump of mud on the ground.
Xie Nanzhi: "Not interested."
Just then, Xibei, who had finished her phone call, came over. "Mr. David has gone to fetch the horse and will be here soon."
Xie Nanzhi nodded.
Upon hearing David's name, Shen Xu's eyes lit up. "Nan Zhi, are you here to see David? David and I are friends. Do you need my help?"
People like them understand the rules of this circle all too well.
Xie Nanzhi came to the horse farm to see David, she must have something to ask for or to discuss business. Shen Xu was just worried about not having a chance to spend time with her, and now it was presented to him right in front of him.
Upon hearing this, Xie Nanzhi glanced at him again and asked in confusion, "Are you and David friends?"
Shen Xu looked at her tenderly and said softly, "Yes, we're friends."
Only then did Xibei realize that the person was actually Shen Xu.
Xi Bei shielded Xie Nanzhi behind him, glaring and bristling, and said, "I was wondering why the air smelled so bad, you scumbag, so it was you."
When Xie Nanzhi and Shen Xu were dating, Xi Bei looked down on Shen Xu. Now, she sees him as a toad—he's annoying even if he doesn't bite.
Facing Xibei, Shen Xu's attitude also turned cold. "Xibei, this is between Nanzhi and me. Don't interfere. What if Nanzhi and I reconcile in the end? Won't you be embarrassed?"
Xibei put her hands on her hips and laughed out loud at his cryptic remarks. "Don't worry, my Nanzhi would never be so foolish again, so there's absolutely no chance of that happening."
Shen Xu's face darkened with anger, while Xie Nanzhi stood aside, secretly laughing.
Just as Shen Xu was about to retort, he saw David leading his horse toward them. "David's here, Nanzhi. Don't worry, I'll definitely put in a good word for you with David."
Then, Shen Xu walked over to David first.
Xibei was speechless, and then sarcastically asked, "Why is he being singled out?"
Xie Nanzhi was much calmer, saying, "Ignore him."
As the two approached, Shen Xu was greeting David and introducing himself, but David was completely confused. "Sorry, I still don't remember who you are."
Shen Xu was embarrassed. He caught a glimpse of Xie Nanzhi and Xi Bei trying to suppress their laughter out of the corner of his eye, and his face fell. "I met Mr. David at a financial seminar half a year ago. But important people tend to forget things, so it's normal that Mr. David doesn't remember me."
This reminder made David seem to remember Shen Xu. "Oh, Mr. Shen, is there something you need today?"
Then, Shen Xu wanted to take the opportunity to introduce Xie Nanzhi.
Before he could even speak, Xie Nanzhi was one step ahead of him, taking the initiative to shake his hand, "Mr. David, I am Nanzhi, the person that President Xi mentioned on the phone."
The lively and playful Xibei followed, "Mr. David, I am Xibei, Xi Yongcheng's daughter. I brought my friend here today to talk to you about the loan."
Since she was an acquaintance's daughter, David was noticeably more friendly towards Sibe.
David turned his gaze back to Xie Nanzhi. "Miss Nan, leave your application materials here in a moment, and I'll have someone help you with the process. That's all for now, I'm going horseback riding. I'm getting old, so I just want to stretch my muscles."
Xie Nanzhi had prepared all the materials in advance, but David's attitude still made her uneasy.
Perhaps out of respect for Xibei's father, David was willing to meet with her and give her a chance. But this perfunctory attitude was not what Xie Nanzhi wanted. Putting aside whether the application would be approved after completing the procedures, even if the loan was approved, she didn't have that much time to wait.
Seeing David leading his horse onto the track, Xie Nanzhi followed without hesitation. "Mr. David, my horsemanship is actually quite good. Would you like to have a race?"
Xie Nanzhi is beautiful, especially when she exudes confidence.
Her words caught David's attention. "Miss Nan can ride a horse?"
Xie Nanzhi stood tall and proud, radiant and confident. "Mr. David, wouldn't you know if we had a match?"
Westerners particularly admire independent, strong, and confident women, and David is no exception.
He smiled and said, "Alright, I'm willing to have a contest with Miss Nan. However, it seems that Miss Nan isn't even wearing riding attire."
Xibei's eyes widened.
Oh no, they were in such a hurry to get to the horse farm that they forgot to prepare their riding gear.
What should we do?
The next second, Xie Nanzhi said steadily, "I brought it, but I haven't had time to change it yet. Mr. David, just give me a few minutes."
Xibei looked over abruptly, her face full of surprise.
Xie Nanzhi gave her a reassuring look and walked straight toward the changing room.
At that moment, a man who had just entered the horse farm from another direction was staring intently at her.
Mu Lin, standing behind him, said, "Second Master, it's Miss Xie."
Wei Chizheng's gaze was deep until Xie Nanzhi entered the dressing room. "Find out who she came with?"
Mu Lin: "Understood, Second Master."
