Chapter 485 Extra Chapter 5: Shen Ruzhi and Yu Hai
“Okay,” Yu Hai readily agreed.
Before Shen Ruzhi could say anything, Yu Hai gave her a reassuring look.
The two mounted their horses, with Yu Hai riding the most spirited one.
"This Yu Hai is really something! He can ride a horse, and he rides it so well!" someone exclaimed.
"Is Yu Hai riding that number 32 horse?"
"This horse has killed quite a few people, and we don't know what happened to them in the end. Yu Hairuo only knows a little bit of fancy footwork, so he must have gotten himself into trouble today."
As the man spoke, he looked at Chen Ruzhi and Yingying not far away.
"However, I must say, Yu Hai seems to be eating very well. I think he's even prettier than Yingying now."
"What's the use of looking good?" another said. "Money is more important than anything else."
"You know why Yingying married Xu Kai. She's so beautiful, how dare Yu Hai bring her out like that? He's really stupid."
"This carriage is right next to the manor, and all the people coming from there are rich. What if one of them takes a fancy to it... then Yu Hai will be crying."
"You're right."
"......"
The two were talking loudly, and Yingying and Shen Ruzhi, who were not far away, heard them. Shen Ruzhi acted as if nothing had happened, but Yingying's face looked very unpleasant.
"Miss Chen, please don't take their words to heart..."
Shen Ruzhi didn't even turn her head this time. "The one who should take it to heart is you, right?"
"I...you..."
"Stop with the 'I, I, I' and 'you, you, you'. Where I'm from, you don't even have a chance to get close to me."
"Not just you, but all of you."
Yingying gripped her bag tightly, biting her lip hard, refusing to cause herself any more trouble.
Looking at Xu Kai and Yu Hai on the horse track, I actually wished they were both dead...
Just as she was thinking this, whether it was because her curse had come true or something else, Yu Hai and Xu Kai's horses seemed to be startled.
It started rushing uncontrollably into the crowd.
Everyone was so frightened that they ran away with their heads in their hands.
What a joke! If someone were trampled by a horse, the lightest consequence would be serious injury, and the worst would be death. Faced with life and death, these people wouldn't care about saving face.
Only Shen Ruzhi was not afraid; instead, she charged towards the two horses.
Xu Kai had already fallen off his horse. Yu Hai had regained control of his own horse, but he couldn't spare the attention to control the other one.
The horse charged toward the group of people from the nearby manor.
Seeing that Yu Hai had taken control of the horse, Shen Ruzhi immediately charged towards Xu Kai's horse.
If this horse were to charge at people, things could get serious today. However, that's not what Shen Ruzhi is worried about. She just doesn't want to see anyone suffer an undeserved disaster.
Just as the horse was about three meters away from an old man with gray hair, Chen Ruzhi tightened the reins and easily leaped onto the horse's back.
The reins were pulled tight, and the horse jumped up on its two front hooves, landing in a different direction, thus avoiding harming the old man in front of it.
Shen Ruzhi steered the horse toward an open space, then bent down slightly and did something that made the horse obediently slow down.
Seeing that the horse had caught the bamboo, Shen Ruzhi rode the horse slowly to the staff member, dismounted, handed the reins to the staff member, and instructed, "Take a good look at its body."
"He must have been injured by some external force to go mad."
The staff member gratefully thanked Chen Ruzhi, saying that if something had really happened today, he would have been held responsible.
Shen Ruzhi didn't say much. After returning the horse, she went straight to find Yu Hai.
at this time,
Yu Hai was also walking towards Shen Ruzhi.
"Ah Hai, are you alright?" Shen Ruzhi asked worriedly.
Yu Hai smiled and said, "Don't worry, I haven't ridden a horse with you for the past few years, so this little unexpected situation is nothing."
“Both of these horses have probably been tampered with,” Shen Ruzhi said.
Yu Hai patted Chen Ruzhi's head. "Let them investigate on their own."
"This little girl."
Shen Ruzhi turned around. "Are you calling me again?"
She was no longer a little girl, but then she suddenly remembered what Yu Hai had said: here, anyone younger than the other person was considered a little girl.
The person in front of me was at least 68 or 70, and compared to my early twenties, she was indeed a young girl.
Yu Hai said that people her age here haven't even graduated from university yet.
Although she didn't know what university was.
"Thank you for saving me just now. I didn't expect you to be so brave at such a young age." The old man's white hair was more than his black hair.
Looking at Shen Ruzhi with a loving expression, he said, "You saved me, I should thank you properly."
"Little Xu, don't you think so?"
A middle-aged man immediately stepped forward, bowing and scraping, and said, "Yes, yes, Mr. Liu, you are right."
The middle-aged man was Xu Kai's father. He made his fortune by dealing in antiques. A person whom Xu Kai respected so much must be a very famous person in the antique world.
"I failed to handle this matter properly this time. Don't worry, Mr. Liu, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly and give you an explanation."
At this moment, Xu Kai and Yingying also stepped forward.
Xu Kai fell off his horse but fortunately he wasn't attacked; he only twisted his ankle and wasn't seriously injured.
"Dad," Xu Kai said, his voice slightly weak.
"You scoundrel, apologize to your Uncle Liu right now!"
Xu Kai has always been afraid of his father, so naturally he does whatever his father says.
The old man chuckled and waved his hand, "Never mind, never mind."
"Xiao Kai, are these your friends?" Old Liu asked, pointing to Yu Hai and Shen Ruzhi.
Xu Kai looked embarrassed, but still nodded with a smile, "Yes, Uncle Liu, this is my high school classmate and his...wife."
Old Liu looked somewhat surprised. "I didn't expect you two to be married."
“Xiao Kai’s classmate must be around twenty-five or twenty-six this year. You’re lucky, kid, to have snagged such a wonderful girl.”
Shen Ruzhi took Yu Hai's hand and said, "I was the one who seduced him, not Yu Hai who seduced me."
"Yu Hai is very capable."
The old man paused for a moment, then chuckled and said, "What an interesting little kid."
"I originally thought today would be another ordinary day, but I didn't expect it to be so exciting and novel."
As the old man spoke, his eyes suddenly noticed the jade bracelet on Shen Ruzhi's hand.
"this..."
Shen Ruzhi looked down at the jade bracelet on her hand, then at the old man who was squinting as if he had poor eyesight.
He then took off the bracelet and handed it to the old man, saying, "This is just an ordinary bracelet."
The old man quickly and carefully took the bracelet, and as soon as he reached out his hand, his assistant behind him immediately handed him his reading glasses.
The old man put on his reading glasses and examined it carefully. "This bracelet with such fine water is extremely rare."
"The key is the pattern carved on this bracelet. Girl, where did you get this bracelet? If I'm not mistaken, this bracelet has some history."
“It’s mine,” Shen Ruzhi said calmly. “I have many better ones at home. If you like this one, I’ll give it to you.”
Shen Ruzhi thought the old man wasn't a bad person.
The old man was startled and immediately returned the bracelet, saying, "Young lady, you'd better keep it safe. This bracelet of yours could probably buy the entire Jinxiu Mansion residential complex."
Everyone was startled by the old man's words.
