Chapter 72
After dinner, Ye Lixuan had an experimental report to write in the evening and had to go back to the laboratory.
Ye Tianhui was also helpless: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If you are busy, why did you run out to eat? It's a waste of time."
Ye Lixuan: "Isn't this good? I can eat and drink enough before going to work."
Ye Tianhui: "Okay."
She sent Ye Lixuan to school and happened to see a horse racing magazine seller on the roadside, so she got off the car and bought one. Holding the magazine, she was about to get back into the car, but at this moment, a person suddenly appeared from the side, grabbed her wrist and walked away.
Ye Tianhui raised her leg to kick, but the other person sensed her intention and whispered, "It's me."
——It’s Gu Shizhang.
Ye Tianhui retracted her leg that was about to kick out.
Gu Shizhang dragged her to a corner, pressed her against the wall and kissed her.
The kiss was so forceful, as if he wanted to suck her dry. Her lips and tongue were sore from the kiss that she subconsciously wanted to push him away.
Gu Shizhang panted and gritted his teeth in her ear: "Ye Tianhui, you are such a heartless little thing!"
Ye Tianhui was also panting. She leaned against the wall and looked up at him.
There was intense emotion in his eyes, and his thin lips were pursed sharply, as if he wanted to eat someone!
She snorted lightly and said unconvincedly, "How can I be so heartless?"
Gu Shizhang lifted her chin with his thumb and looked down at her. "You don't have a single conscience in your body."
He gritted his teeth. "You two are having dinner together, which is great. But you don't even dare to look at me? You don't even dare to say hello to me? Are you that afraid of him getting angry?"
Ye Tianhui was puzzled: "But that's my father. Didn't we agree to coax him and make him agree to let us be together?"
Gu Shizhang: "Bullshit!"
When Ye Tianhui heard this, her eyes widened in surprise.
She couldn't believe it: "You actually said such vulgar words!"
She threatened: "If you use vulgar language like this, I will not like you anymore!"
This is not the elegant and noble Gu Shizhang!
Gu Shizhang sneered: "Ye Tianhui, how could I have a girlfriend like you? When you brought me a pot of soup that day, I felt something was wrong and knew that you had bad intentions. As expected, you just went over to watch me have fun. You wanted to take a picture of my embarrassment and keep it forever, right? Seeing my embarrassment made you feel particularly happy, right? Ye Tianhui, you really know how to coax me——"
He paused abruptly when he said this.
His eyelids drooped, and his dim gaze was fixed on her lips.
Her very thin lips looked a delicate and moist red because of the kiss just now, which made her even more charming.
He stared at the red lips for a while, then closed his eyes slightly, kissed the lips lightly, separated the two soft petals, and licked them lightly with his tongue, as if he wanted to taste the flavor inside.
His eyes were dim, but his expression was very serious, as if he was doing some experiment.
He kissed her passionately for a long time, and finally withdrew slowly as their breaths intertwined.
Because the four lips were entangled together and wet, as if they had suction to each other, they made a very slight "pop" sound when they separated.
The voice was moist and ambiguous, making people blush and their ears jump, and making people wonder, this is how it is possible between men and women.
Gu Shizhang spoke in a hoarse voice: "It seems quite sweet."
Ye Tianhui looked up at him, feeling a little confused and bewildered.
Gu Shizhang extended his thumb and gently stroked her moist lips: "No wonder you are so good at saying those sweet words to make me happy, but they are all fake, lies, and you are deceiving me."
As he spoke, his voice became lower and lower, and by the end, it was cold and dangerous.
Ye Tianhui frowned.
This wasn't a kiss, it was just a way for him to teach her a lesson.
Gu Shizhang looked at her expressionlessly: "Why, you're not convinced, are you? What kind of photos did you take when you came to see me that day?"
Ye Tianhui was stunned, speechless and unable to respond.
Gu Shizhang raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh, you're mute? Did a cat bite your tongue?"
Ye Tianhui: “…”
Gu Shizhang: "Just tell me, I'm waiting for you to give me an explanation with your eloquence."
Ye Tianhui took a deep breath and looked at Gu Shizhang helplessly.
Since he already knew, how could she explain it? She really had bad intentions.
So she finally said, "Yes, you guessed right. I heard that you were beaten. I was so happy that I wanted to fly over to see what happened to you."
She sighed: "Making soup, caring, it's all fake, I just want to see you having fun!"
Gu Shizhang's eyes were gloomy.
Ye Tianhui pursed her lips and chuckled: "You already know everything, why are you still asking me why?"
Gu Shizhang looked at her steadily, and then said word by word: "Ye Tianhui, now you can still regret it and say you didn't mean it."
Ye Tianhui raised her lips and touched her lips that had been kissed.
As passionate as his kiss just now was, his eyes now were as cold.
She looked at him: "Well, what do I regret?"
Gu Shizhang's dark gaze locked onto her, not missing any subtle expression on her face. "Tell me, if you had to choose between me and Daddy, who would you choose?"
Ye Tianhui was surprised and raised her eyebrows. She looked at him for a long time and finally said, "Gu Shizhang, I didn't know you were so naive and ridiculous."
************
The two people had a falling out.
It was obvious that Gu Shizhang's former gentleness was gone. He was very angry because of the photo incident and because of Ye Lixuan's bullying in front of him.
The incident with Ye Lixuan was fine, Ye Tianhui didn’t think she had done anything wrong, and she certainly didn’t think her father had done anything wrong.
He did hide it before, so what's the problem? Isn't it normal for her dad to be angry because he hid it?
Besides, he is several years older than me. If he wants to talk to me, is there anything wrong with Daddy holding Qiao's hand?
Does her father have to kneel down and say thank you, Gu Shizhang, for being willing to be a friend to my daughter?
However, Ye Tianhui felt that the photo incident was indeed her fault.
She did have bad intentions at that time, which was very bad. When he found out, he was naturally angry.
It just seems that this matter was revealed by his own dad, and his dad must have mocked and ridiculed him.
Some things can’t be said...
That night, Ye Tianhui was actually a little depressed. She thought about calling Gu Shizhang, but then she remembered his cold look and decided not to call him.
It has become like this, why are we fighting?
Make up your mind and forget it. Just ignore it for now and worry about your own King of Hell!
*********
The next morning, Ye Tianhui got up early and drove to the racecourse. After parking her car, she rushed to the racecourse and happened to meet Zhou Wanlan and Ke Zhiming, who were talking under a banyan tree.
Zhou Wanlan said to Ke Zhiming, "Mr. Gu will be here soon to help us check on Palace Music. He used to be very good at adjusting the lighting."
Ye Tianhui: “…”
What a coincidence!
She probably guessed that the so-called "Mr. Gu" was Gu Shizhang.
She didn't want to see Gu Shizhang at all.
At this time, Zhou Wanlan also saw Ye Tianhui, and said with a smile: "Miss Ye, are you coming to see the horses?"
Ye Tianhui came forward and greeted them, and Zhou Wanlan introduced Ke Zhiming to Ye Tianhui.
Ke Zhiming is a slightly thin man, but he is full of strength, smart and capable. Judging from his physique, he is obviously a master of cavalry. His many years of cavalry career have naturally left some marks on his physique.
She looked at Ke Zhiming with a smile and said, "Why, is it really necessary for Mr. Ke to come to such a small three-class horse race?"
Zhou Wanlan smiled and said, "He's just here to watch the competition and get to know Palace Music. Today I invited a real expert to help check things out, so I asked Zhiming to come along."
Ye Tianhui vaguely felt that the great expert was Gu Shizhang.
She simply skipped the topic.
I don't want to mention this person at all.
Changing the subject, Zhou Wanlan was also curious about today's race: "Is your horse participating in today's inter-class race?"
Ye Tianhui: "Yes, my horse."
Zhou Wanlan was obviously surprised as well: "I heard that Black Rose is under your command?"
Ye Tianhui: "I am in charge of Black Rose. I currently have four horses under my command, but none of them are very promising. They are all old, weak, sick, disabled, or pregnant."
Zhou Wanlan obviously knew a little about this; things in this circle couldn't be kept secret. She smiled and said, "It's okay, take your time. So which horse are you going to fight today?"
Ye Tianhui: "King of Hell."
When these words were spoken, Zhou Wanlan and Ke Zhiming were obviously a little surprised.
Ke Zhiming raised his eyebrows slightly: "Can the Hell King go into battle now?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "It's OK, but it's not in good condition. So I thought I'd let it out more often to see the world and learn. It can also be considered a test."
Zhou Wanlan nodded. "Yes, that's what we had in mind this time. Our Palace Music player lacks practical experience, so I want him to see a variety of horses and gain more experience."
The three of them went to the VIP viewing seats together. During this time, Ye Tianhui naturally chatted with Zhou Wanlan about horse racing and their plans for this competition.
The two families were in a competitive relationship, and their racehorses were bound to meet on the track, but fortunately, there was no essential conflict of interest between the two families. Zhou Wanlan did not hoard land, and the choice of reclamation project had nothing to do with their family. Therefore, the competition between the racehorses was relatively benign, and the atmosphere during the chat was naturally harmonious.
Zhou Wanlan also mentioned several horses under her care. When she mentioned Palace Music, she sighed, "I hope Palace Music can gain practical experience as soon as possible. When the time comes, I want to have it compete in an international Grade 1 race alongside Longhua Jiaren."
Ye Tianhui: "International Level 1 competition... I really should gain more experience."
Zhou Wanlan: "What are your plans?"
Ye Tianhui smiled and said, "I don't have any ideas for now. Our Ye family has a limited number of places to compete, and there aren't many that can be allocated to me. I'm still working hard to get a place."
Zhou Wanlan expressed her understanding: "It's nothing, take your time."
Ye Tianhui: "Yes... On the contrary, your Longhua Beauty should be driven by Mr. Ke, right?"
Ke Zhiming beside him nodded slightly: "Yes."
Perhaps due to years of weight control, his voice was a little hoarse, but unlike Lin Jianquan's, his voice was the heavy and hoarse voice of an adult man.
Zhou Wanlan glanced at Ke Zhiming and said with a smile, "Zhiming is currently working with Longhua Jiaren. I hope he can achieve something this season."
Ye Tianhui said, "Of course. Mr. Ke is an undefeated legend on the racecourse. The best jockey riding the best horse will definitely be the biggest hot topic this season."
She was not lying when she said this. In fact, she had already vaguely felt that everyone was gearing up to fight to the death this season. There were countless good horses and excellent jockeys. It would not be easy for her to achieve some results.
As everyone talked, they naturally mentioned this competition.
It is obvious that Zhou Wanlan and Ke Zhiming are full of confidence in Palace Music. They think that it will definitely win. Palace Music is overwhelmingly superior to other horses. They even plan to use high load to increase the strength of Palace Music to stimulate its fighting spirit.
As for their own Hell King, they obviously didn't take him seriously...
As they were talking, the group went to the VIP viewing hall. The staff were already there, and everyone from Ye's Horse Company was also present.
Zhou Wanlan naturally knew Ye Wenyong. She stepped forward to greet him and asked curiously, "Such a small inter-class competition, I didn't expect it to alarm you."
Ye Wen glanced at Ye Tianhui with a lazy smile: "This is our key project."
Zhou Wanlan knew it very well, but did not mention it. After all, it was someone else's family matter. After exchanging a few pleasantries, they sat down.
Ye Wenyong, Ye Tianhui and others sat on one side, while Zhou Wanlan and Ke Zhiming sat on the other side. They were only separated by an aisle, so they could naturally hear each other's conversation clearly.
Zhou Wanlan and Ke Zhiming were talking quietly, and Ye Tianhui was listening. They seemed to be talking about Gu Shizhang, and that meant that Ke Zhiming should ask Gu Shizhang for more advice: "He is very experienced in horse training. He was the one who cured the famous British horse Longguang at that time."
In fact, Zhou Wanlan's voice was very soft, and Ye Tianhui shouldn't have been able to hear it, but her hearing was very good, so she heard it clearly.
I can't help but grind my teeth for a while.
When she was troubled by the King of Hell, she didn't see him provide any valuable advice.
Okay, the two of them can break up and never talk to him again.
At this time, Ye Tianhui looked down from the spectator stands and saw that the people under her were all there, busy preparing. Because this was the first relatively formal or challenging competition for the Hell King, everyone was very cautious and gave it their all.
Even Lin Jianquan, who was not participating in the competition, came. He was wearing a blue sportswear and stood silently beside Chen Zongwan.
Ye Tianhui looked at the two young jockeys standing side by side.
She had always known that they were secretly competing with each other, but now she thought that after all, they were brothers in the same trench, and perhaps they had some friendship.
Her gaze passed over Ke Zhiming inconspicuously.
Ke Zhiming was once like those two teenagers, young and passionate, trying to climb up. Now he has escaped from his original status and can sit here with the Hong Kong tycoons in the VIP seats to watch the jockeys compete below.
As we watched, the racehorses entered the arena.
Ye Tianhui looked over from afar and saw Lao Zhou leading the Hell King and handing the reins to Chen Zongwan. It was obvious that the Hell King was in very good condition, full of energy, full of fighting spirit, and eager to try.
But obviously, the Palace music next to it is arrogant and has the arrogance of a royal aristocrat.
It may seem strange to use the word "arrogant" to describe a horse, but it is true. This horse is very proud and thinks he is the best in the world.
Ye Wenyong looked at the Hell King, slightly surprised, and said, "He's in pretty good shape."
The horse steward's assistant nearby was also watching and, upon hearing this, remarked, "At least it looks like a racehorse."
Ye Tianhui: ...
She glanced at the horse assistant indifferently. She remembered that his last name was Hu. This Assistant Hu was indeed outstanding, but he was very arrogant.
Zhou Wanlan naturally heard what was said here. There was a hint of confusion between her brows, but she chuckled, then looked away and pretended not to know.
She probably didn't expect that a small three-class inter-class competition would actually involve such exciting family infighting.
At this time, several horses were ready and standing in front of the gate.
Old Zhou looked up, across the floor-to-ceiling glass, at Ye Tianhui.
Ye Tianhui felt Lao Zhou's worry and nervousness. She didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly, indicating that he didn't need to worry.
A horse must be able to win, but also be able to lose.
It would be great if he could win, but if he couldn't, then at least let the King of Hell experience a small failure to train his character.
Given the Hell King's current state, she thought he was a child who could afford to lose.
At this time, the game was about to start and everyone looked over.
But as soon as the bell rang, several horses rushed out of the gate almost at the same time. For a while, the only sound on the racecourse was the rumbling sound of horse hooves, which was shocking.
Chen Zongwan lowered his body and rode his horse at full speed. Hell King had great explosive power and successfully broke into the ranks of the leading horses, almost on par with the proud little stallion Palace Music.
Ye Wenyong frowned immediately, obviously finding it incredible.
This King of Hell actually has such explosive power?
Zhou Wanlan and Ke Zhiming next to them were also staring.
It was obvious that the young stallion Palace Music possessed extraordinary fighting power, but the Hell King was not far behind, pressing forward step by step, and another horse was also chasing closely on the outside. This intense scene excited the audience, and some people in the crowd were already cheering.
Ye Tianhui was calm and composed, watching quietly.
At this time, Ke Zhiming said: "This horse is just a momentary impulse. It exerted its strength at the wrong time and lacks stamina."
Everyone was confused when they heard this, but when a top jockey like Ke Zhiming spoke, it naturally made sense.
Everyone stared at the field more and more, watching without blinking, and saw that Palace Music had obviously taken the lead, leaving Hell King aside.
The Hell King was also running hard, but it seemed that its decline was already obvious. The distance between the two horses' heads was gradually widening, and soon, the Hell King's horse's head had fallen behind Palace Music's horse's butt.
And this Palace music, this Palace music that was already in the lead, seemed to realize its victory and began to act arrogantly and ostentatiously. It was so arrogant that it even deliberately swung its horse's legs backwards, as if it wanted to deliberately humiliate the King of Hell who landed on its horse's butt!
this--
Ye Tianhui had actually watched Palace Music’s competition videos before, but it was a surprise to see it with her own eyes.
This is a horse with such an arrogant temper. It actually blatantly provokes others on the track!
That’s too arrogant!
However, Zhou Wanlan had anticipated this. She sighed softly and said helplessly, "It's getting more and more excessive."
But Ye Tianhui could clearly hear that in that seemingly helpless tone, there was doting and indulgence towards her own child.
This is understandable. Who wouldn't be happy to have such a proud and capable pony?
Ye Wenyong beside him sighed, "Mrs. Ning, your Palace Music horse really has an unusual temperament."
The others also found it incredible: "This horse is too arrogant."
This is naturally what horse owners like to see. A horse is proud and unwilling to fall behind others, so it will naturally fight hard. With such Palace music, it can be imagined that when it encounters setbacks, it will become more and more courageous and be able to burst out with amazing fighting power!
Ye Tianhui looked at the track silently, but saw that her Hell King had been left behind, and the tail of Palace Music was arrogantly swung on the face of the Hell King's horse.
That is the provocation of the victor.
There were also a small number of ordinary spectators watching right next to the track. Everyone burst into laughter, obviously thinking that this Palace music horse was very funny.
People always indulge racehorses that have talent and potential. They are arrogant and proud, but they have the capital!
Zhou Wanlan sighed and explained helplessly: "Palace music is usually like this. Zhiming, you can teach it a lesson when you take control of it in the future."
Ke Zhiming: "Maybe it's because it's too strong and other horses can't pose a threat to it, so it feels this way."
Ye Wenyong smiled bitterly, "There's nothing we can do. There's really nothing we can do. Our horses are no match for you."
Zhou Wanlan looked at Ye Tianhui and saw that she didn't say anything, just staring at the King of Hell.
She felt somewhat apologetic and said helplessly, "It just happened that I caught up with you today. I didn't expect that you, the Hell King, would be participating in this inter-class competition."
Ye Tianhui heard the sympathy in her words.
But she smiled and said, "It's okay. If I catch up, I catch up. No matter how strong it is, I believe my horse will always fight hard."
Her voice was cold, yet full of warmth and strength.
Zhou Wanlan was stunned after hearing this and looked at Ye Tianhui with some surprise.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a surprised voice from the audience: "This horse!"
She was puzzled and looked over quickly. She was surprised for a moment that the King of Hell seemed to be in a bad mood.
It seemed to feel humiliated, it seemed to be angry, and it was obviously not convinced and began to raise its hooves.
Ye Tianhui naturally saw this scene clearly.
She understood that the overly arrogant Palace Music had obviously dealt a great blow to the King of Hell. It was a crushing blow to his self-confidence, a humiliation to Mag, and a mockery of the Son of Dragon.
The King of Hell felt this humiliation.
This was contempt from a fellow horse, and the King of Hell could not stand this kind of grievance.
Ye Tianhui's eyes were fixed on the King of Hell. She knew that this was also an adventure.
Maybe its potential will be stimulated and it will catch up quickly. Maybe it will become irritable and cause trouble, and will never recover.
She stared intently at the track, at the furious Hell King, at the humiliated horse.
Obviously, Chen Zongwan also realized it at this time. He realized that the King of Hell's mood had changed.
And this is also an opportunity, an opportunity to stimulate the potential of the King of Hell!
He immediately lowered his body and ordered the King of Hell to pursue.
In fact, he didn't even need to give any orders at this time. The King of Hell roared and started to work hard.
So, through the floor-to-ceiling glass, as the flagpole fluttered, Ye Tianhui clearly saw that the potential of the King of Hell was being stimulated, and every inch of muscle in its body began to swell and gather strength.
The potential within this horse is bursting forth.
The next scene was shocking. The horse caught up with the horse, raised its hooves and galloped away at lightning speed.
Some of the audience realized it, and people watched with wide eyes and disbelief as the little-known horse began to gallop.
It ran like a shooting star, whizzing away, madly chasing Palace music, trying to reverse the decline.
People opened their mouths silently and just watched, watching the horse that was clearly far behind suddenly burst into fighting spirit.
People saw that the horse was closing in step by step and was almost catching up with Palace music.
The atmosphere in the VIP auditorium was already tense. Everyone was looking at the track through the glass. One jockey even stood up nervously, stretched his body and looked outside, as if he couldn't wait to help.
Ye Tianhui withdrew her gaze and glanced at Ke Zhiming and Zhou Wanlan beside her.
Their expressions were completely different from before.
Ke Zhiming frowned, his expression solemn.
Zhou Wanlan looked at everything in front of her in confusion, her eyes seemed a little dazed, and it was obvious that she could not react yet.
The many horse assistants of the Ye family, including Ye Wenyong, had stopped breathing and were all staring closely.
Obviously, no one could believe it. They couldn't believe that the King of Hell actually had the potential to surpass Palace music!
After all, Palace Music is the Ning family's trump card, their proudest and most outstanding potential stock, the Zhou family's weapon to make a splash in this season, and Zhou Wanlan's magic weapon to win!
This is the horse that a legendary jockey will personally ride to compete in an international Grade 1 race!
But now, in an inter-class competition among the three teams that no one took seriously, they actually encountered such a strong opponent!
This is the worst case scenario of a boat capsizing in a ditch!
