As soon as the words fell.
These well-informed children of aristocratic families reacted immediately. They all looked at Huo Xingzhou in shock and confusion. They didn't expect that he had always been serious, cold and arrogant, how could he make such a joke.
Xiang Huai's face was livid and ugly. Xu Xingluo's fingers were fidgeting with the dress, and the jealousy in his eyes wanted to burn Qiao Xi to ashes.
Qiao Xi's head lowered, her cheeks turned crimson.
How could Mr. Huo say such a thing so seriously and openly.
But Huo Xingzhou refused to let Xiang Huai go easily: "What kind of horse do you think I am? A pureblood horse or a cold-blooded horse?"
"You... shameless."
Xiang Huai squeezed out a sentence through his teeth.
He never thought that Huo Xingzhou, who had always been so clean and graceful, would actually say such words to save a village girl.
He actually fell to the point of comparing himself to a horse.
Not far away, a young man with clear eyes and delicate appearance said: "Brother Huo is of course a [-] meter rare horse! No one else can touch it, but Dr. Qiao can ride it casually."
Qiao Xi really wanted to find a hole in the ground and bury herself.
"Liu Yi!"
Xu Xingluo shouted angrily, "Is this what you should say? Children are always talking about inappropriate things. When I get home, I will make sure my uncle teaches you a lesson."
Liu Yi smiled brightly: "Cousin, I have passed my eighteenth birthday. You are more like a child every time you complain to your elders."
"you……"
"What am I? I won't play with you anymore."
Liu Yi stood up, walked to Qiao Xi, paused and said, "Doctor Qiao, she is from the Xu family and I am from the Liu family. She and I are different. I remember that you saved my grandma, my second uncle and my brother. "
After saying that, he left from the exit.
At a young age, I can distinguish between good and bad better than adults.
He remembered Qiao Xi's kindness.
Xu Xingluo's face turned pale with anger, and his eye circles slowly turned red.
She has always been like this. If she is not being taken care of, she will start to pretend to be weak. However, many men fall into this trap. They feel that a big man cannot argue with a little girl.
Xiang Huai comforted her in a low voice: "He is ignorant and his elbows are turned outward. Don't worry, I will always stand by your side."
Qiao Xi was confused as to why Xiang Huai was so kind to Xu Xingluo, as if he was willing to do any heinous thing for her.
Huo Xingzhou poked a piece of watermelon with a small fork and stuffed it into her mouth.
Qiao Xi chewed it twice, sweet!
"It's delicious, Mr. Huo eats it too."
"Ah."
Huo Xingzhou got together with her and didn't take what just happened to his heart at all. The couple watched the equestrian show indoors and would discuss it from time to time.
During the break of the equestrian show, Huo Xingzhou took Qiao Xi off the stage and asked the staff to bring over the horse he kept in the racecourse.
The dark and smooth black horse snorted. Seeing Huo Xingzhou, he took the initiative to reach out his head and rub him, looking very affectionate.
"Mr. Huo, what's the name of this horse?" Qiao Xi looked at him enviously.
It's really majestic.
"It's called Tianyuan."
In the past, no one had connected the naming of this horse with the Tianyuan Group, until Huo Xingzhou's identity was exposed. Only then did everyone realize that everything had already been traced.
"Tianyuan, this name sounds very domineering."
Qiao Xi bent her eyes and tried to touch its mane.
So smooth and comfortable.
The horse has a good temper and does not shy away from her caressing.
"Go up and try? I'll help you." Huo Xingzhou suggested.
Qiao Xi was a little nervous but eager to try, "I can't do it."
She had only ridden an old scalper in her hometown, and there were very few horses in such remote places.
The man raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "Why don't you ride at night? Just ride during the day."
His strong arms hugged her slender waist, using his strength to help her flip onto the horse.
Qiao Xi blushed while sitting on the horse. She held the reins with her hands and pushed her legs on the stirrups. With Huo Xingzhou escorting her, she felt a sense of freedom in her heart.
"Try outside on the grass? It feels better to run there."
"it is good."
Huo Xingzhou led the horse out, and Qiao Xi sat awkwardly on the horse. She could clearly feel several unfriendly eyes falling on her.
Even without looking, you would know that it must be Xiang Huai, Xu Xingluo and others.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Huai felt angry in his heart.
During this time, he was in the imperial capital processing orders from the Xiang family and the Zhong family. The Zhong family canceled their cooperation with their Xiang family in the next quarter. After investigating, he discovered that the Zhong family had re-signed a contract with Huo Xingzhou.
Huo Xingzhou bit into a piece of fat meat from Xiang Jia's mouth.
He was scolded by his family, and everyone said how he made careless friends. They were obviously brothers who played together, but Huo Xingzhou actually stole their Xiang family's business.
Xiang Huai knew about Huo Xingzhou's ambition to expand his business territory.
But he didn't expect that the first step of Tianyuan Group's attack call to the imperial capital would be to attack Xiang Jia first!
Huo Xingzhou must be too arrogant. He really treats the old aristocratic family in their imperial capital as a sick cat!
He stood up and followed quickly out!
"Brother Xiang Huai..."
Xu Xingluo was thinking about what he wanted and followed Xiang Huai out. The young men who were watching the excitement looked at each other and followed them leisurely.
Xiang Huai ran out of the indoor racecourse and saw Huo Xingzhou standing next to the horse and said.
"Huo Er, let's compete! If I lose, I will give up the opportunity to bid with the Zhong family next year!" Xiang Huai said impulsively, his eyes gloomy and unwilling.
What he hates most is people saying that he is not as good as Huo Xingzhou.
Especially since his beloved woman still wanted to marry Huo Xingzhou, he was willing to endure it for Xu Xingluo.
Huo Xingzhou turned his head and said slowly: "Compared to what?"
"Obstacle horse racing!" Xiang Huai said with a cold face, "Competing to see who reaches the finish line, regardless of the rules."
Horse racing is inherently a dangerous sport, and he specifically emphasized that it does not matter the rules.
That would definitely be more bloody.
"No comparison." Huo Xingzhou said calmly.
Xiang Huai said reluctantly: "Don't you dare?"
"Huo Xingzhou, I'm giving you a chance. How can you get involved in the business of the Imperial Capital? No matter how fierce our fight is, we will always be united against strong enemies."
Xiang Huai is not an alarmist.
This time, Tianyuan Group struggled to get orders for a quarter.
The bet he made was very generous.
Huo Xingzhou's eyebrows were wide and he took in his anger and impulsiveness and said slowly, "I'm afraid you won't keep your words."
"I'll keep my word to Huai."
Huo Xingzhou twitched the corner of his mouth: "I don't believe in verbal bets. If you make such a big bet, I must have to pay a lot."
Xiang Huai took a deep breath and said: "Draw up an agreement now, and you and I will sign it. If I lose, the Xiang family will withdraw from the Zhong family's bidding next year. If you lose, you will no longer get involved in the Imperial Capital's business."
Huo Xingzhou raised his eyebrows slightly: "Okay."
The fish insists on taking the bait, what can he do.
