Chapter 70 You Are the Only One
However, what she didn't expect was that in the evening, Gu Shizhang called and asked about the horse racing representative announcement meeting. Ye Tianhui mentioned her experience this time and her future plans, and talked about them in general.
Since Longguang was mentioned, she also said, "It seems that you changed Longguang's name and registration at that time. This is a very wise idea. It seems that no one recognizes Longguang now."
Gu Shizhang: "That's normal. Judging from her appearance, there's nothing special about her. Besides, I've kept this information a secret and haven't revealed it to anyone."
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "As you said before, this horse racing season has undergone major changes and there are many opportunities. Getting rich is just around the corner."
Gu Shizhang listened and chuckled, "Your mind is full of thoughts about money."
Ye Tianhui: "What's wrong with thinking about money? Is that wrong?"
Gu Shizhang smiled and said, "That's right."
Ye Tianhui: "How are you recovering? Are you okay?"
Gu Shizhang: "Much better. There are still some light marks on my face, but they should disappear in a couple of days."
Ye Tianhui: "Oh, that's good."
But I thought to myself, it’s a good thing I’ve visited it before, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to see anything.
Gu Shizhang asked, "Who else did you meet at the representative meeting?"
Ye Tianhui: "Your nephew."
Gu Shizhang smiled and said, "Zhiming? He will definitely participate."
Ye Tianhui: "Well, a famous horse racing critic."
Gu Shizhang continued, "From what I hear, you've made other new friends?"
New friends?
Ye Tianhui understood after hearing this.
It must have been Meng Yinian who mentioned it to him, but no one knew what he said.
Why is this man so gossipy? He has to tell Gu Shizhang about such a small matter right away?
She couldn't help but laugh for a moment: "Not really friends, I'm sure I've made some acquaintances, just casual acquaintances, so what's the point of calling them friends or not."
Gu Shizhang was silent for a moment before he said, "I did know the Second Young Madam of the Ning family before, and I was quite familiar with her, but we didn't have any special relationship."
Ye Tianhui: “…”
When she heard this, she just felt a little bit numb, or embarrassed.
Is he really the same person in his previous life? Why did he believe Meng Yinian's words and explain this to himself?
Would she care about such a thing? Would such a misunderstanding happen?
She didn't know what to say for a moment, so she just smiled bitterly: "I didn't say anything. Don't explain these to me. It sounds a bit confusing."
Gu Shizhang: "Oh, why is it so strange?"
Ye Tianhui muttered in a low voice: "Why explain this? I won't think too much about it."
Gu Shizhang was silent for a moment, then whispered, "Well, I know, you won't think too much about it."
Ye Tianhui heard that his voice seemed a little strange: "What's wrong?"
Gu Shizhang said: "It's nothing, I just thought too much."
Ye Tianhui: "...It's okay. Now that you've explained it this way, I think it's good too."
It's just a little embarrassing. Is she the kind of person who would care about and misunderstand such things?
She is someone else's daughter-in-law, is she so petty?
Both of them were silent for a moment.
After a while, Gu Shizhang said, "She might want Ke Zhiming. According to the information I received, it should be almost done."
Ye Tianhui: "That must have cost a lot of money, right?"
Gu Shizhang: "I don't know. We haven't been in touch for several years."
Ye Tianhui: "Like this..."
For some reason, the topic was inexplicably interrupted and the atmosphere became a little weird. Ye Tianhui found an excuse, saying that she wanted to take a shower, and quickly hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Tianhui thought about her sudden emotions and many things in her previous life.
He became the crown prince and ascended the throne. As an emperor, there must be some people in his harem. Various rumors were passed around. In the end, although there were indeed not many people in his harem, the rumors kept coming out.
Has she ever felt this sour emotion?
Ye Tianhui was a little confused, she didn't know.
But she understood that perhaps she was subconsciously trying to escape, to avoid being caught up in this love affair.
In her previous life, He Qingxu married someone else, and she was just sad for a moment.
Just as I was thinking about it, the phone rang again.
She hesitated for a moment, then took it.
Gu Shizhang: "Liar, you said you wanted to take a shower and hung up on me on purpose."
The voice was quite gnashing of teeth.
Ye Tianhui: "...I, I'm just standing here and haven't had time to take a shower yet."
However, Gu Shizhang didn't listen to the explanation at all: "Liar!"
Ye Tianhui smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "What's wrong with you? I didn't offend you."
Gu Shizhang: "You are just a heartless, ruthless and ungrateful liar."
Ye Tianhui looked innocent: "Why, don't accuse me like this, there must be a reason, right?"
Gu Shizhang: "I heard from Meng Yinian that Zhiming's words were indeed not good. I was worried that you would think too much, so I explained it to you. Is that wrong?"
Ye Tianhui: "That's right."
Gu Shizhang's voice was a little stiff: "But your reaction makes me feel like a fool."
Ye Tianhui: "I didn't, I think you treat me like a fool!"
Gu Shizhang: "Why did I treat you as a fool?"
Ye Tianhui: "How could I possibly suspect that you have something going on with her? She is the young mistress of the legitimate Ning family. She has a husband and a family. And since she was able to marry into the Ning family back then, you must have no feelings for her. Otherwise, how could you let her marry like that? Don't I understand this logic? Besides, she obviously couldn't find you, so she asked your nephew. How could she ask your nephew if they have such a good relationship?"
Gu Shizhang: “…”
He was silent for a moment, then he smiled: "Yes, I am stupid."
Ye Tianhui: "That's about right."
She smiled and said calmly, "But I know that you feel guilty about your reaction now. Something must have happened back then."
Gu Shizhang explained, "We did know each other a long time ago. After all, we were both in the Hong Kong circle. Maybe he had some feelings for me back then, but that was when we were young. Now, after so many years, it's just a joke."
He said it implicitly, but Ye Tianhui guessed it to some extent.
Times have changed and others have already started families, so he naturally doesn't want to mention anything.
But he was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable with what Gu Zhiming said that day, so he wanted to explain it to her.
Ye Tianhui also smiled: "It seems that you have a lot of stories. You must have other things in the past. Do you want to talk to me and tell me everything you need to talk about, so that I won't find out something else and get angry with you one day?"
Gu Shizhang: "From your tone, it seems like you're gloating over my misfortune and want to catch my little pigtails?"
Ye Tianhui: "I'm curious. You are seven years older than me and have seen so much more. My past experiences must have been very simple, nothing at all, but you are different. Maybe you have had some romantic encounters!"
Gu Shizhang: "I didn't have any romantic encounters, don't make such jokes."
Ye Tianhui: "Then tell me, do you have any? If so, at least tell me a story."
Gu Shizhang: "What do you mean by 'come on'? Do you think I'm telling you a story?"
Ye Tianhui smiled: "You must have a lot of stories."
She was very determined.
On the other end of the phone, Gu Shizhang was silent for a moment.
After that, when he spoke again, he had already restrained his smile and said seriously: "It's really not a romantic encounter, and there is no story."
Ye Tianhui: "Oh..."
Gu Shizhang: "It's getting late. Don't you want to take a shower? Go take a shower early."
Ye Tianhui: “?”
Gu Shizhang: "I'll call you tomorrow."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay."
She was a little disappointed, but it didn't matter, so she hung up the phone immediately.
Who knew that at this moment, a low voice came from the phone: "Before I met you, I really had no interest in any opposite sex, and I had never had any romantic contact with anyone. You are the only one."
After saying that, the phone was hung up with a click.
************
The Jockey Club quickly announced the prize money changes for the new season. As soon as the news was released, Hong Kong horse racing fans were excited. Now that the prize pool has skyrocketed, it means that everyone’s chance has come!
Who doesn’t want to make more money at this time? So many horse lovers are ready to try, and horse owners and participating riders are even more eager to try, and they are all working hard.
As long as the horse runs fast and there are huge bonuses waiting for you, who wouldn’t want to try their best to get a good ranking!
Ye Tianhui also took the opportunity to hold a brief meeting with several of his subordinates to discuss the current situation.
Now we are just waiting for the official race schedule to be released. These races will be divided into various categories. In addition to the normal qualifying rounds, there should also be some special journey horse races, including mud races.
This diversity of racing also gives a wide range of horses a chance, meaning that those that don't win but still perform well will also be rewarded.
Of course, this is a greater test for many horse owners and horse management companies. It means that everyone has to study the rules and characteristics of each race, study their opponents, and also study the adaptability of their own horses, so as to choose the most suitable race for them and arrange their own schedule reasonably to obtain as much prize money as possible.
The atmosphere at the racecourse was obviously getting more lively, the horse trainers were eager to try, and the jockeys were also excited.
Ye Tianhui, Sun Jiajing and Lao Zhou discussed it and got ready. They asked them to first analyze the competition schedules of previous years and formulate a strategy for Longguang and Black Rose.
Now the condition of Hell King is getting better and better. It seems that it is not averse to the track or the reins. Just yesterday, Hell King was chasing several horses on the track, and it actually came in first.
However, it is obviously not perfect enough, or it is not sufficiently adapted to the rules of the competition, so Ye Tianhui is not in a hurry.
Let Black Rose and Longguang fight first. She saved the King of Hell for last, and she didn't want to let the King of Hell join the battle too early.
The King of Hell must first be allowed to develop willpower and endurance, and must ensure that it recovers completely and has a healthy mind before they dare to let it out to fight a tough battle. Otherwise, if there is a mistake, all their previous efforts will be wasted, and the horse will be completely ruined.
Ye Tianhui also got a general understanding of the training situation of Chen Zongwan and Lin Jianquan, and observed their cooperation with their horses, and found that they were all getting along well.
Compared with the tacit understanding between Sun Jiajing and Lao Zhou over the years of friendship, Chen Zongwan and Lin Jianquan are obviously a bit competitive.
This is human nature. Sun Jiajing and Lao Zhou have experienced so many ups and downs together. As they are older, they don't have the competitive spirit of the young people. However, these two young men are only two or three years apart in age. They are both young and energetic, and they both have a strong desire to make a name for themselves. Now that they are working under him, it is inevitable that they will compete with each other.
Ye Tianhui turned a blind eye to the subtle relationship between the two people.
After all, they are all jockeys under her, and she wants them to achieve good results. As long as they don't use those dirty tricks, she encourages them to compete, give their all, climb up, and win prize money.
As for herself, she actually spends all day at the horse farm. In addition to studying her own strategies, she also began to study other horses and their possible responses.
She also quickly found out the news that Zhou Wanlan had indeed recruited Ke Zhiming to ride Longhua Beauty to compete in this international Grade 1 horse race in Hong Kong.
As soon as the news came out, the Hong Kong horse racing community was in an uproar.
You should know that Longhua Jiaren is already a famous horse with an outstanding record. Now with the addition of Ke Zhiming, she is even more powerful.
For a while, the popularity of the Longhua Jiaren and Ke Zhiming combination was guaranteed, and horse fans were asking about it one after another. It seemed that they would become the popular horses of this season.
In addition, Meng family's Gulf Golden Light and Ye Wenyong's Xuantie Fourteen have also become famous horses of this season. They have been repeatedly featured in horse racing guides and have been introduced and studied many times on horse racing TV channels.
Compared with these famous horses, the horses under Ye Tianhui are all quiet.
She was quite calm about this. Honor also means pressure, so it was good to do it quietly so as to avoid possible trouble and pressure.
However, she also began to consider giving the Hell King a chance and tried to let the Hell King participate in low-level inter-class competitions.
Today, Hell King has experienced the joy of running. It has begun to enjoy running like other horses, instead of rejecting or disliking it. It has also learned the jockey's language and started to obey orders.
Ye Tianhui asked Chen Zongwan to be the rider of the Hell King. Chen Zongwan has a decent ability to control the Hell King, and he has been cultivating tacit understanding with him in his daily horse training.
So that day, Chen Zongwan drove the Hell King to participate in a not-so-conspicuous five-class horse race.
Hell King actually easily won the first place in this Class 5 race.
Lao Zhou was very excited: "It was so easy. He won the first place in one breath without even breathing hard!"
This is not a surprise. The Hell King obviously has an overwhelming advantage over those five classes of horses, but Ye Tianhui and others are still very happy.
This means that the horse is indeed ready to start participating in some races.
She studied the results of the competition carefully: "It didn't give its all, it only gave 60 percent of its strength."
This shows that Hell King's potential is far higher than other horses of the same age, but this also makes people worry. If they use so many training methods and still cannot stimulate Hell King's desire to win, what should they do?
Moreover, their goal is to allow Hell King to join the competition in the second half of the season, so that Black Rose can take a break and reduce the frequency of Black Rose's preliminaries.
But if the King of Hell remains in his current state, it will be difficult for them to force him to fight any tough battles.
Ye Tianhui asked Lao Zhou to keep an eye on it and find an inconspicuous opportunity to put the Hell King into a slightly higher-level competition to see how it performed.
In fact, I also wanted to use this to test the reaction of the King of Hell and see if I could stimulate its potential.
Old Zhou listened and naturally said yes repeatedly. He was also eagerly looking forward to it, hoping that the King of Hell would have a chance to prove himself.
If the Hell King can still win in a high-level match, it means—
This horse may really have gotten on the right track!
*************
That day, Ye Tianhui returned home and Ye Lixuan happened to be home as well, so they had dinner together.
Ye Lixuan suddenly asked: "Hasn't Gu Shizhang contacted you in the past two days?"
Ye Tianhui: "He's been busy with work lately, and I'm even busier. I don't have time to talk to him, but he calls me every night."
Ye Lixuan said calmly, "That means we have to talk on the phone every night."
Ye Tianhui: "Yeah, but it wasn't a long phone call. It wasn't that long. We just chatted for a few sentences and then hung up."
She sighed, "Daddy, you don't have to worry about this. I don't think I'm stupid, and I won't be deceived by others. Don't worry, I'm the only one who deceives others, it's impossible for others to deceive me."
Ye Lixuan laughed when he heard this: "That sounds nice."
Seeing this, Ye Tianhui felt that her father's attitude had obviously softened: "Actually, Daddy, think about it, before, Gu Shizhang was your friend, what did he call you? Yes, he called you Lixuan, calling you by your full name. From now on, he has to call you uncle——"
She emphasized: "You have been promoted!"
Ye Lixuan: “…”
He looked at her helplessly and said, "Do I care about a junior like him?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "As an elder, you can torment him! As long as he is with me, you can act like an elder. Isn't that great?"
Ye Lixuan obviously disagreed, but he didn't mention it. Instead, he asked, "Are you going to the horse farm tomorrow?"
Ye Tianhui: "I've been going to the racecourse every day these days, and I almost smell like horse manure. I won't go tomorrow. What's going on?"
Ye Lixuan: "There's a new restaurant near our school. If you'd like, you can sleep in tomorrow and then come over in the evening. I'll take you there for a delicious meal."
Ye Tianhui: "That's great! I'll come see you tomorrow!"
When I returned to my room, I saw a white envelope on the table. When I opened it, I found that it contained the photos I had developed this time.
I was a little confused at the moment, so I asked Arong: "When was this photo delivered?"
Ah Rong: "I don't know about that either. I think my husband took it. I was busy in the kitchen at the time. He said it was for you, so I put the photo on the table in your room."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay."
After Arong went out, she took out the photo.
A photo of Gu Shizhang.
Because the curtains were half-drawn, the lighting was not particularly good at the time, and she took the photo in a hurry, so it was not particularly clear, but the bruises on Gu Shizhang's face could be seen.
It's quite obvious.
She held the photo, sat on the rattan chair, and admired it for a while. Naturally, she thought it was good.
Must keep it, keep it for a lifetime.
If there is a next life, I will keep it.
I feel better after seeing it.
However, even though she was in such a good mood, she thought of Ye Lixuan and felt confused.
He seems to be busy with school work recently and I haven't seen him come back so early. But he came back so early today. What a coincidence, he was the one who took the photo.
He probably didn't see it?
She quickly thought, actually, it’s nothing to see. He beat her up like this, this is irrefutable evidence, how can he still be right?
