Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Yan Fengchi pulling on the reins, squeezing his legs together, and shouting, "Giddy up!"
In a mont slower to describe than to happen, he dashed off at full speed.
"Ah? Did I say sothing wrong? Did I sohow annoy Young Master Yan enough to leave?"
But in the blink of an eye, while Luo Xi was still standing on the lawn, dumbfounded, soone rode towards her on horseback. Then swiftly, the figure leaped into the air and landed on the horse, turned around, and returned. In Yan Fengchi’s embrace, a bewitchingly beautiful woman now appeared.
So people began to whistle and cheer from the side.
Luo Xi turned and glared at Yan Fengchi: "What are you doing!"
"Sit tight!" Yan Fengchi growled: "Or I’ll throw you off the horse!"
"I can’t ride a horse!" Luo Xi huffed, thinking to herself: Go ahead, I dare you to try!
"I can!"
Chenxing watched the little interlude unfold with a slight smile, then turned to Gu Shaocheng: "Shaocheng, we must not lose to anyone, understand?"
"Understood, my wife!"
..................................
This was a heart-pumping horse race.
The oval racetrack had the starting and finishing points in the sa place, and included 10 obstacles in between. It required excellent riding skills and carried a certain degree of risk. Therefore, the jockeys participating were all suprely skilled—only the best of the best dare to sign up.
Worried about accidents happening mid-course, the racecourse even had several paradics standing by just in case.
The atmosphere was certainly serious!
A group of privileged young n, naturally none would give way to another, none would admit defeat; they were all lovers of horse riding and, with the addition of beautiful won watching, the mont the referee’s whistle blew, 50 horses shot off like arrows.
One by one, they raised their whips and spurred their horses into a gallop, moving at breakneck speed.
"Giddy up!"
"Giddy up!"
"Giddy up!"
The horses raced wildly, their mighty hoofs thundering across the distance, stirring up clouds of dust!
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up...
It took only a mont for the 50 horses to spread out. As they approached the first fence, several girls, unaccustod to such spectacles, couldn’t help screaming from atop their horses, including Chenxing, whose heart pounded wildly.
"Ah.........."
Piercing screams echoed in her ears. Gu Shaocheng pulled on the reins, and with a motion both elegant and cool, the horse’s head and front legs lifted, clearing the first obstacle with a leap, he urged the horse’s belly, "Giddy up!........"
By the ti Chenxing ca back down to earth, the horse they were on was racing ahead with increased speed. She patted her chest, panting, and even her speech stuttered, "Sc... scared to death..."
Gu Shaocheng laughed heartily, "Coward! You were supposed to cheer on, but it turns out you’re only holding back, nearly making deaf with your screams!"
Chenxing’s face was taut, her hands tightly hugging the horse’s body, both leaning slightly forward.
"It’s too fast!"
He laughed, "How are we supposed to win if we’re not fast?"
"Ah? Soone is overtaking us, Shaocheng, hurry, go faster."
"You, woman, one mont you complain I’m too fast, the next you’re urging to go faster. Which should I listen to?" he said teasingly, spurring the horse into a wild sprint: "Giddy up..."
