Chapter 7: The Fake Daughter of a Prominent Family
Su Youran walked towards the stables. “Of course, it has to be something the other person can do. It can’t be too much.”
Ye Jiuzhou nodded and followed her into the horse farm, with A Da following closely behind.
Su Youran led Ye Jiuzhou to the stable: “You can choose whatever you like.”
She walked straight towards a horse that had been led out. It was completely black with only four white hooves. The horse was obviously very excited when it saw her. It kept neighing and pacing back and forth.
Su Youran hugged the horse’s neck and patted it soothingly, smiling happily, “Zhuifeng, long time no see.”
Ye Jiuzhou watched the man and the horse kissing each other, and was actually a little jealous of the horse. If she could also be so happy to see him, if she could also be so close to him...
Ye Jiuzhou's eyes were deep, and he put one hand in his trouser pocket. There will always be such a day. He looked around and chose a tall and strong brown horse.
Su Youran raised her eyebrows. He had good taste. This was her eldest brother’s treasure, a purebred horse that he had specially found for him.
The two of them led their horses into the arena. The arena was not particularly large, but it was big enough.
Su Youran ordered people to set up obstacles. While waiting, she took out Zhuifeng's favorite candy and fed it to him, while whispering to the horse.
Ye Jiuzhou's eyes flashed with a smile. When he first met Su Youran, she was a modern and elegant noble lady. When he saw her again today, he found that she was still a playful and playful little girl.
He thought of that whip, well... she was still a spoiled child with a bad temper.
How could Su Zhengming and Wu Shuxian not know about the commotion at the racecourse? All of a sudden, everyone in the Su Mansion, whether masters or servants, gathered around the racecourse to watch the excitement.
Except for Aunt Liu who was under house arrest.
Wu Shuxian patted Su Youran’s arm in annoyance. “What are you doing? What kind of horse are you racing? What if you get hurt?”
"Mom, it hurts!"
Ye Jiuzhou hurriedly said: "Aunt Wu, I just wanted to run away, it has nothing to do with Miss Su."
Wu Shuxian glared at Su Youran secretly, her eyes revealing the meaning of "I'll settle the score with you later". Su Zhengming was in high spirits and told the two of them:
"It's okay to compare for fun, but don't take it too seriously and be safe."
Su Youran climbed onto the horse with graceful and graceful movements, “I know, Dad.”
Su Yu stroked his horse and said to Ye Jiuzhou with a smile: "This is a good horse. I call it Benlei."
"Nice horse, nice name."
Ye Jiuzhou praised, then stepped on the saddle and jumped onto the horse's back, agile and decisive.
.
Everyone looked at the two people sitting high on horseback, one was cool and handsome with a strong aura; the other was beautiful, with both heroism and charm.
Quite a good match.
A woman hidden in the crowd looked up at Su Youran with excitement. The sunlight shone through her from behind, and her whole body seemed to be glowing.
As she watched, the woman's eyes turned red. A thin girl beside her called out cautiously, "Mom?"
Why do you look like you're about to cry?
The woman lowered her head quickly and said as if to cover up: "It's okay, it's just that I was facing the sun and my eyes couldn't bear it."
The girl looked at the not-so-bright sunlight. Maybe, because she was too old, she couldn't compete with the young. She also looked at Su Youran, her eyes full of envy:
"Ms. Youran is so pretty."
The woman looked up, unable to stop smiling: "Yes, it's really beautiful..."
She is much prettier than when she was young. I don't know who she looks like...
The girl saw that the woman was in a very good mood. After hesitating for a while, she tentatively said, "Mother, Brother Lin Sheng said a few days ago that the kitchen in the main building was short of a maid and asked if I would go. The salary is several dollars."
The woman immediately frowned and refused without thinking:
"No! Why go? The family doesn't need your salary, so just stay at the back. Be careful if you go to the front and offend the master, or a beating will be the least of your worries!"
"oh……"
The girl lowered her head in disappointment. Ever since she followed her mother to the Su Mansion, her mother had always told her not to move around freely.
She was used to being confined to a small area far from the main building. She knew her mother would probably not agree, but she still wanted to try...
The woman saw that the girl looked a bit like her husband, and she made up her mind not to let the girl go to the front! If someone really saw it...
She shuddered. It didn't matter to her, but she... couldn't make any mistakes! It seemed that she had to marry this girl off as soon as possible, preferably far away!
Su Youran's gaze flickered back from that direction and she looked ahead. Su Yu acted as the referee and gave the order:
"start!"
The two horses charged out like sharp swords. The crowd couldn't help but cheer, most of them cheering for Su Youran:
"Ms. Youran, come on!"
"Ms. Youran, be careful!"
Su Youran turned a deaf ear to all the noises, crouched low, tightened the reins, and steered the horse forward. Zhuifeng raised his horse's hoof high in front of the first obstacle and jumped over it perfectly.
There was a sudden burst of applause from all around.
Ye Jiuzhou glanced at Su Youran beside him in surprise. He didn't expect that although she looked delicate, she was an excellent horseman. If he didn't put in a lot of effort, he probably wouldn't be able to win.
That won’t do!
Ye Jiuzhou was now certain that if Su Youran won, she would definitely ask to cancel the engagement.
From the time they met yesterday to the simple time they spent together today, Ye Jiuzhou knew that Su Youran didn't like him. Or to be more precise, she didn't like him since she was engaged to her.
What he had to do now was to occupy a position beside her first, and then he could plan other things.
Thinking of this, Ye Jiuzhou's eyes became extremely sharp. He must win! The two of them jumped over the second obstacle almost at the same time.
Su Youran liked this feeling of being at lightning speed and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Ye Jiuzhou looked at her with a smile and fighting spirit in his eyes:
"Miss Su, be careful, I'm going to speed up."
Su Youran looked over. The sun was shining brightly, but it was not as bright as the light in her eyes. “I should say this. Be careful not to lose to me, or you’ll lose your reputation.”
Ye Jiuzhou was stunned, then laughed. He rarely showed his emotions, and this was even more rare. Ye You also stood on the sidelines, watching the two horses running side by side, and sighed in his heart:
It seems that good things are about to happen to the Ye family.
Both wanted to win, and it seemed like in the blink of an eye they reached the last obstacle, and after crossing it, the finish line would not be far away.
Su Youran had already spotted Chuntao standing there waving a flag. She kicked the horse's belly and Zhuifeng was the first to cross the railing. Su Youran was about to smile triumphantly when something unexpected happened.
Zhuifeng neighed violently, bent its horse hooves, and lowered its front body. Su Youran was caught off guard and was about to rush forward. She was about to be thrown off the horse.
Everyone outside the venue exclaimed in unison: "Ms. Youran!"
Su Zhengming shouted: "Of course!"
Su Yu rushed over here. Wu Shuxian covered her chest and was about to fall down. Aunt Wei held her up and said, "Madam!"
Ye Jiuzhou pulled the reins hard, forcing Benlei to turn in a different direction. The moment Su Youran flew off Zhuifeng's horse, Ye Jiuzhou stood up, leaning forward with most of his body, and put his arm around Su Youran's waist, pulling her back.
The two of them narrowly managed to sit back on Benlei's back. Zhuifeng had already knelt down on all fours, neighing softly, as if in pain.
Ye Jiuzhou pulled the reins to stop the equally agitated Ben Lei. He held Su Youran's waist tightly, rested his head on her shoulder, and gasped for breath.
He was really scared just now. If he fell down, he would be seriously injured at least. Ye Jiuzhou felt that he had never been so scared since he was old enough to understand.
Su Youran sat astride him face to face, her face pale. She subconsciously grabbed the collar of Ye Jiuzhou's shirt, her body trembling slightly.
Ye Jiuzhou felt it, and quickly put one hand on her back, patting her gently: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay, it's okay..."
Su Youran's tears instantly flowed down. She buried her head in Ye Jiuzhou's chest and sobbed softly. She was really scared.
Ye Jiuzhou moved his hand from her waist to her shoulders and pressed her hard into his arms, his voice trembling: "If something really happened to you, I would probably go crazy!"
Su Youran’s crying stopped and she looked up at him. Her eyes were misty with tears and she looked so tearful that Ye Jiuzhou wished he could rub her into his bones and blood.
They were so close that their foreheads were almost touching and their noses were almost touching.
Ye Jiuzhou instinctively leaned forward again, and when his lips were about to touch those soft hands, he was interrupted by Su Yu's angry shout:
"Ran Ran, come down!"
The two of them leaned back at the same time. Su Youran's face turned red and her eyes were evasive. She didn't dare to look at Ye Jiuzhou who was staring at her.
Ye Jiuzhou sighed secretly, thinking that the situation was not right. He was the first to dismount and held Su Youran down with his arms outstretched.
As soon as Su Youran's feet touched the ground, her knees softened. She was still in shock and hadn't recovered yet. Ye Jiuzhou hugged her tightly and comforted her softly:
"It's okay, just take it easy."
Su Yu felt distressed and angry. There are so many people here, please be careful of the impact! He held Su Youran's shoulders and looked at Ye Jiuzhou coldly.
"Can I let go now?"
Ye Jiuzhou then slowly loosened his hand. When Su Youran saw Su Yu, tears started to fall again: "Brother..."
Su Yu lowered his head and wiped her tears:
"Let's see if you dare to act recklessly again. If it weren't for Jiuzhou today, you would have fallen and gotten yourself into trouble! What would our parents and us do?"
Wu Shuxian had already staggered over with the support of Aunt Wei, calling her anxiously: "Ranran! My Ranran!"
Su Youran threw herself into her arms and said, “Mom, I’m scared…”
Wu Shuxian hugged her and couldn't help patting her on the back: "I told you to go racing! You scared me to death! You are not allowed to ride horses anymore. Do you hear me?"
Su Zhengming touched Su Youran's head and thanked Ye Jiuzhou: "Thanks to Jiuzhou, you saved Ranran, so you are the Su family's benefactor. The Su family owes you a favor!"
Ye Jiuzhou looked at Su Youran and said, "Miss Su is my fiancée. It's my duty to save her."
When these words came out, the others were all stunned.
Su Youran stopped crying. She raised her head from Wu Shuxian's arms and looked at Ye Jiuzhou. His eyes were deep and his expression was focused.
"Ms. Su, I would like to ask you to give me a chance to pursue you."
