Chapter 169 Horse Racing Invitation
Murong Chuan looked at his sister, then at Huo Yichen, who was obviously hiding something in his smile, and felt that the two of them didn't look unfamiliar.
When he heard that his younger sister was called Huo, Murong Chuan became more determined.
"Student Murong can also ride a horse?" Huo Yichen approached her to talk to her by saying hello.
"Just interested." Murong Qiao pursed her lips and replied, she didn't expect Huo Yichen to have such a chat with herself.
The third brother was standing beside him. For some reason, the scene in front of him made Murong Qiao feel a little bit of embarrassment and shyness.
Huo Yichen seemed to have seen through Murong Qiao's thoughts, seeing that the other party just pretended to be unfamiliar with him, but he wanted to deliberately tease him.
"Yes, I just saw that Miss Murong is very interested in horse riding, so I asked her to teach me." When the topic of horse riding came up, Feng Xinyao took the opportunity to intervene.
She quickly cleaned up the astonishment and embarrassment in her heart, and walked over with an endearing smile.
Feng Xinyao said friendly words, but in her heart she felt that Murong Qiao was even more annoying. She didn't expect that even Huo Yichen knew Murong Qiao.
In Murong Chuan's eyes, she was the only one who didn't say anything, and even Huo Yichen, who he had a crush on just now, ignored her. Feng Xinyao could clearly feel that Huo Yichen and Murong Qiao had different eyes when talking, and there was a trace of ambiguity between the two.
Murong Chuan naturally didn't want to pay attention to Feng Xinyao's words. Huo Yichen only liked Murong Qiao wholeheartedly, so he didn't understand what Feng Xinyao was saying.
"Then let's go ride a horse." Only Murong Qiao felt amnesty after hearing Feng Xinyao's words.
The eyes of the third brother beside her looked penetratingly at her and Huo Yichen back and forth, making Murong Qiao really feel that staying here is not a good thing.
Hearing Murong Qiao say that she wanted to ride a horse, Feng Xinyao's eyes lit up.
Horseback riding is her field.
Her eyes fell on Murong Qiao's clean and neat attire, and she suddenly had an idea.
"We happen to have a horse race today, why don't Ms. Murong come and try it too, everyone is very friendly to beginners, so don't worry about accidents." Feng Xinyao changed the subject and changed the subject of horse riding to the competition.
She knew that this person had no good intentions.
Hearing Feng Xinyao's invitation to a horse race, Murong Qiao also thought about this person.
"It's a bit of a compliment to say that I'm a beginner. I haven't even learned how to mount a horse for the first time, so I won't disturb everyone's interest." Murong Qiao politely declined.
"It's okay, I believe everyone will be very happy to race horses with you." Feng Xinyao dismissed Murong Qiao's worries, and then pointed to the young masters in the racecourse. "And we usually play games like a joke. Friendship comes first."
Murong Qiao followed his gaze, and several young sons and brothers all stopped there, looking straight in this direction.
Among them was Cheng Juan. After being forced by Huo Yichen, he had no choice but to return to the racecourse unwillingly, but he still did not give up watching Murong Qiao.
Seeing Feng Xinyao's appearance of not giving up without trying to impress her, Murong Qiao frowned and felt that the other party was difficult to deal with.
"Then I will trouble you." She had no choice but to agree.
Instead of rejecting Feng Xinyao's kindness, it's better to step into the other party's trap and see what she really wants to do.
The conversation had come to this point, and the few of them went to the racecourse together, first to choose horses.
Soon, Murong Chuan and Huo Yichen who were standing at the door saw them coming out, followed by a waiter leading a horse.
It wasn't just the two of them, everyone around was sizing up the newcomer Murong Qiao openly and secretly.
I didn’t see it clearly because I was too far away, but now Murong Qiao is dressed in a sassy and glamorous dress on a horse, with her high ponytail swaying in the air as she walks, like a hook, touching people’s hearts, making her itchy unbearably.
Huo Yichen was also looking at her, his eyes fixed on Murong Qiao's rare appearance purely and persistently, as if he wanted to engrave her into his mind so that he would never forget it.
There was some displeasure in her words, and when she realized that everyone was looking at Murong Qiao instead of herself, this emotion almost broke through from her heart and appeared on the surface.
Fortunately, Feng Xinyao's ability to manage emotions has always been very good, and she rearranged her mind almost in the blink of an eye.
Feng Xinyao's own horse was on the side, lowering her head docilely and tamely, accepting the owner's touch.
"I see, let's start." Murong Qiao nodded to express his understanding.
She just wanted to end her contact with Feng Xinyao as soon as possible, and Murong Qiao didn't care about winning or losing the match.
Seeing Murong Qiao so straightforward and quick, Feng Xinyao's mood improved a lot. The smile in her eyes deepened, and she stood beside her horse to prepare.
"Two players, please prepare!" The referee shouted.
Of course she didn't want Murong Qiao to be in the limelight, so just now she was being manipulated a little bit.
Murong Qiao’s horse was newly arrived by Chen’s family. It had not been tamed at this time and its temperament was extremely staunch. Even experienced riders dared not ride it, let alone Murong Qiao who had never ridden this kind of horse.
Feng Xinyao specially asked someone to bring it here, the purpose was to make Murong Qiao look ugly in public.
Such a gorgeous and delicate beauty, if she was thrown to the ground by a horse and bumped into it... Feng Xinyao curled her lips.
"Start!" Gunshots and voices came out together, like a signal, announcing the start of the game.
Feng Xinyao got on the horse familiarly, every movement was standard and impeccable, which made people admire.
She yelled crisply, and with a flick of the rein in her hand, she galloped out. Before people could react, only a figure could be seen gradually going away.
"Miss Feng's equestrian skills seem to have improved again! This time the start looks obviously faster than before!" The young master beside him couldn't help but admire.
They all noticed Feng Xinyao's equestrian skills, and it was even rarer to see the heroic appearance of a beauty on the racetrack. Feng Xinyao immediately felt that there were many eyes on her, all of which were envious and admiring.
She was unavoidably proud, and took advantage of turning the corner to look back at Murong Qiao. She hadn't started from the starting point yet.
See what you compare with me.
In the blink of an eye, Feng Xinyao had already run a certain distance, but Murong Qiao was tentatively getting on the horse.
This is the first time for her to get on a horse. Even if she knows what to do but has not practiced the movements, it is inevitable that she will be unfamiliar.
Moreover, Murong Qiao felt something was wrong as soon as he got close.
She touched the horse's body, and when she stepped up, she was keenly aware of the restlessness and wildness of the horse below her, and even the horse's head shook wildly, as if trying to break free from the rein in her hand.
what's the situation?
Murong Chuan and Huo Yichen had been paying attention to Murong Qiao all the time, and immediately noticed something was wrong, and immediately saw the dangerous scene of the fierce horse suddenly raising its upper body.
Murong Qiao didn't have time to react, so he swung his whole body backward, about to be overturned by the horse.
"Be careful!" She heard two hurried voices.
In the next second, Murong Qiao was embraced by someone, wrapped in the familiar Lengxiang.
It was the voices of Murong Chuan and Huo Yichen, but Huo Yichen came to the person one step faster.
The presence of Murong Qiao did not prevent Huo Yichen from getting on the horse at all. He held the rein with one hand and leaped into the air. His figure was as light and comfortable as a flying swallow. Sitting on horseback.
This set of smooth and flowing movements made everyone watching dumbfounded.
Huo Yichen covered Murong Qiao's hands and held the rein tightly, exerting strength to suppress the wildness of the fierce horse, making it run up to avoid falling the two of them together.
