Chapter 178 She Rides Me, What Do You Think?

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The largest equestrian club in Haicheng.

In addition to equestrian performances, there are also horse races auctions. The horse owned by Huo Xingzhou was obtained from an auction. Rich people like to come to the suburbs to join in the excitement.

Horse racing is exciting, and sometimes they will participate in the races themselves and place bets.

A Maserati with a luxury package stopped at the door.

Shu Xue got out of the car in a casual outfit, yawned and walked out lazily. She didn't want to come, but Zhou Yu invited her again and again. This stray dog ​​picked up here is quite good at teasing people.

Zhou Yu closed the car door and walked to her side. He put his arm around her waist and said, "Don't worry, Huo Er and Qiao Xi won't come to a place like this. The company secretary told me that Huo Er went to work today. Besides, we're just going to the grassland to ride horses, not to crowded places."

Shu Xue said unhappily: "Let's keep our distance. If we run into acquaintances, we can just say we are just ordinary friends."

"OK."

Zhou Yu seemed easy to talk to and coaxed her.

As they were talking, Shu Xue suddenly pulled him over, pressed him against the car door and kissed him.

A Rolls-Royce whizzed past them. Zhou Yu was immersed in the woman's initiative, but was kicked by Shu Xue's high heels.

"Ouch..." He cried out in pain.

Shu Xue was furious: "Look what that is?"

Zhou Yu followed her line of sight and saw the familiar license plate of Rolls-Royce. In the distance, Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi got out of the car one after another.

"I'm sorry, baby, I didn't expect them to come."

Zhou Yu pulled her to hide, and it seemed that Huo Xingzhou and Qiao Xi did not find them.

Shu Xue snorted coldly.

"Let's go to the horse farm. They should be going to watch an indoor equestrian show. Let me tell you a wonderful place, Lover's Hill." Zhou Yu really had something evil in mind.

When I get bored of playing at home, I want to run outside.

Shu Xue was angry and half-heartedly agreed, thinking that she must not let Qiao Xi find out, so as not to destroy her image in Qiao Xi's heart.

Another entrance.

The driver, Lao Chen, closed the car door and said respectfully, "Master, Madam. I'll go park the car first. Let me know when we're done."

"Um."

Huo Xingzhou took Qiao Xi's hand and walked inside. Qiao Xi looked at the layout of the horse farm curiously.

There was an endless grassland, and some people were riding horses. The beginners were accompanied by coaches.

I always felt like I saw a familiar figure just now, but when I looked carefully, there was nothing there.

They walked past the stables, which were clean and tidy. The healthy horses were eating grass and looked very elegant.

There was a flash of surprise in Qiao Xi's eyes.

Past the stables is a huge indoor equestrian performance arena, from which bursts of noise could be heard.

Looking further back is the club's lounge and locker room, and there is even an afternoon tea restaurant.

This club is all membership-based, with annual membership fees starting at NT$200,000, and the highest membership fee depending on the level being NT$1 million per year.

"First, I'll take you to see the horse show."

"good."

Qiao Xi raised her head and said with a smile.

They walked into the indoor equestrian performance venue through a special passage and were arranged by staff to sit in the front row of VIP seats. There were soft, collapsed leather sofas and a small dining cart beside them with tea and snacks.

"The pastries here are pretty good, they should suit your taste," Huo Xingzhou said calmly. He knew Qiao Xi liked sweet but not greasy things, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes when she ate her favorite food.

Like a cat.

"Uh-huh."

Qiao Xi nodded.

Just as Huo Xingzhou was about to explain the characteristics and rules of horse racing to her, several voices were heard nearby.

"Second Brother Huo!"

"Huo Er, you are here too?"

Qiao Xi looked over and saw some familiar young faces. They were the ones who had encouraged her and Huo Xingzhou to drink from the same cup during the last drinking party in Fuchun Garden.

There were two more people sitting at the very edge, Xiang Huai and Xu Xingluo.

Xiang Huai glanced at her coldly, showing his undisguised disgust. Xu Xingluo was as cold as ice, always maintaining the airs of an elegant socialite.

"Brother Huo, what a coincidence! We are here with Brother Xiang Huai to watch the horse racing show today."

"Don't flatter me. Brother Xiang Huai is obviously here to accompany sister Xingluo to relax, who do you think you are?"

They laughed and joked, trying to smooth things over. They couldn't afford to offend Huo Xingzhou, nor could they offend Xiang Huai. Xiang Huai's family was very famous in the imperial capital, and was comparable to the Huo family in Haicheng.

Xiang Huai waved to the staff: "Change my seat, I want to sit there."

He pointed to the seat next to Huo Xingzhou and said.

"Okay, Mr. Xiang."

Outsiders only thought that Xiang Huai and Huo Xingzhou had a good relationship, but they didn't expect that there were so many twists and turns between them.

The staff adjusted Xiang Huai's seat to be next to Huo Xingzhou, and Xu Xingluo also sat over. The young men at the back all asked to change seats, and they all gathered together as if they were in a group.

Qiao Xi moved her butt slightly, feeling a little restrained.

Huo Xingzhou's finger joints were lightly covered with a thin layer of silk, and he stroked the back of Qiao Xi's hand to comfort her.

Qiao Xi glanced at him and felt a little more at ease.

"Brother Huo, are you bringing your sister-in-law to watch the horse racing show? I didn't expect you to be willing to spend time on romance with a girl."

"You two have a great relationship."

They paid a few compliments.

Huo Xingzhou's mouth corners sank slightly, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "She likes riding horses."

Qiao Xi's ears turned red.

She had never ridden a horse here before, only...only last night she was tricked into riding a few times.

But those people don’t know.

"Like riding a horse? Why would a country girl like her ride a horse? Could it be a mule from the countryside? Some people just can't tell the difference between a mule and a horse. In order to highlight their status, they insist on saying that they are riding a horse."

Xiang Huai's cold and hard facial features were very aggressive, and his hair was combed up without any care.

His words were fierce and his tone was disdainful.

His disdain for Qiao Xi was clearly written on his face.

Xu Xingluo's mouth curled up, with sarcasm in his eyes.

A village girl also wanted to integrate into their aristocratic circle, but Xiang Huai was the first one to disagree.

"Dr. Joe, this is not your clinic. Tell me, what breed of horse do you ride? Is it a pureblood or an Orlov? Or is it a cold-blood or an Andalusian?"

Xiang Huai pressed on step by step, with an aristocratic attitude that looked down on everyone, and he used the knowledge accumulated from money and status to humiliate Qiao Xi.

Others were afraid to help and were in a dilemma.

They all knew that Xiang Huai was venting Xu Xingluo's anger.

Xiang Huai went to the imperial capital some time ago, and when he came back, he heard that Xu Xingluo had suffered a lot of grievances. He brought his sweetheart to the horse farm to relax, but met Huo Xingzhou and his wife again.

"Doctor Joe, are you speechless? Don't act so pretentiously in front of us. With your ability, what kind of horse can you ride?"

Xiang Huai sneered, with a cold look of sarcasm on his face.

Qiao Xi bit her lip and remained silent.

I didn't expect that a casual remark could cause so much dissatisfaction in Xiang Huai. He changed seats just to find fault.

But she really didn't know those horses.

Huo Xingzhou looked at him, his eyes showing a hint of coldness and his expression was extremely lazy.

He tapped the armrest of the chair with his finger, and a slow chill spread out: "She's riding a horse like mine, what do you think?"
