Chapter 19 Horse Riders
"I already told you, who do you think you are? Do I need to prove anything to you?" Lu Chenyang retorted without any politeness.
He grabbed Su Zichen and prepared to leave.
I had long suspected that Su Youfei wasn't that kind-hearted.
They said they were introducing friends to help them, but in the end they came up with this kind of childish nonsense.
Lu Chenyang felt that his intelligence had been insulted.
"You fucking stop right there!" Hou Xiaojian was furious.
He failed to win over either of the two women he set his sights on.
Moreover, this convict was severely humiliated.
How could he possibly tolerate it?
He immediately pulled out an exquisite square box from his person.
turn on.
Inside was a gleaming women's wristwatch. "This was originally a gift I was going to give away."
“Hey Lu, if you dare to compete with me, this watch is yours.”
Using money to bribe people is a tactic he often employs.
First, use money to subdue people, then secretly send people to steal the money back.
Not only can they achieve their goals, but they also don't spend a single penny.
In the end, they can also gain a reputation for being generous.
A single action achieves several goals.
Lu Chenyang looked at Hou Xiaojian like he was a stupid dog, "You just have a broken watch, and I'm going to challenge you to a contest?"
Su Youfei crossed her arms and said with a mocking expression, "A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin."
"This watch is nothing special, it's just a limited edition Patek Philippe worth three million."
Patek Philippe?
It seems to be a brand name.
Lu Chenyang didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the box directly.
Su Zichen happened to be short of a piece of jewelry, and since the other party was offering it for free, she gladly accepted it.
He turned to Hou Xiaojian and said, "Alright, let's compete."
"How do you define winning or losing?"
Hou Xiaojian smiled dismissively and stroked his Thoroughbred horse.
He stepped into the stirrups and leaped onto the horse's back in a flash.
He said with an arrogant expression, "I won't bully you either. If I lose, I'll kneel on the ground and bark like a dog."
Hou Xiaojian dared to make such a big bet because he was very confident in his riding skills.
Looking across the four provinces of Jianghuai, there was no one who could rival him.
Besides, this convict in front of me has just been released from prison, what kind of riding skills does he know?
“Like a dog barking is pointless.” Lu Chenyang picked at his ear. “You’ve been riding this horse for a long time too.”
"If you lose, the horse will ride you for half an hour."
“Okay, it’s settled then. I’ll be the referee.” Su Youfei directly set the bet for Hou Xiaojian.
A champion from four provinces versus a convict—isn't the outcome obvious?
She couldn't wait any longer and wanted to see Lu Chenyang make a fool of himself. "Everyone can take out their phones and be witnesses."
"If anyone loses and tries to renege on their debt, they will be utterly disgraced."
"You can forget about ever making it in Zhonghai City again."
The other men and women in elaborate attire immediately chimed in.
"I think this is fair and just, there's no problem with it."
“Miss Su has always been fair and impartial, so there is absolutely no problem with him being a judge.”
"Everyone, take out your phones and start a live stream. Don't give those who want to renege on their debts a chance."
These people have already concluded that Lu Chenyang has no chance at all.
This effectively eliminated any possibility that he might renege on his debts.
Hou Xiaojian was overjoyed.
Su Youfei was clearly doing this to help herself.
He pointed arrogantly to the horse farm and said, "Alright, you can choose any of the horses here."
"As long as you choose it, I can help you borrow it."
"Forget it, I hate trouble the most." Lu Chenyang smiled faintly, "Then let's skip the unnecessary procedures and just fulfill the bet."
Fulfill the bet?
Everyone present was stunned.
What does this guy mean by that?
Hou Xiaojian said smugly, "Hey Lu, are you planning to just admit defeat, kneel down, and bark like a dog?"
"If you knew you were going to lose, why did you even bother to gamble?"
"However, I am always magnanimous, so I will give you a chance."
"The saying goes, 'Surrender means losing half the battle.' Since you've taken the initiative to admit defeat, then just kneel down and bark like a dog five times."
Su Youfei also crossed her arms, looking disdainful.
Lu Chenyang always boasts and acts like he has a lot of backbone.
I didn't expect you to back down so quickly?
Come to think of it, this guy has been in prison for so many years, he probably doesn't even know how to mount a horse, let alone compete with Hou Xiaojian.
The reason I was willing to stay and accept the bet was purely because there was a reward to be won.
However, he only had to kneel down and bark like a dog five times to get three million, so it wasn't a bad deal.
"I think you've got it wrong. He's the one fulfilling his bet." Lu Chenyang said with a faint smile, whistling.
The crowd was momentarily stunned, then erupted in a roar of laughter...
However, laughter had not yet broken out.
Suddenly, Hou Xiaojian's thoroughbred horse seemed to be startled by something.
Its front hooves suddenly rose up, and the horse stood up straight.
Then, it started shaking its body frantically.
Before the laughter of the crowd could even escape, it was forcibly swallowed back down their throats.
What exactly happened?
Is this horse crazy?
Hou Xiaojian, on horseback, was even more shocked.
He had trained this horse for many years and thought he had achieved a state of perfect harmony between man and horse.
I've never seen anything like this before.
Hou Xiaojian immediately tightened his grip on the reins.
With his other hand, he grabbed the riding crop and lashed it furiously across the horse's back, yelling, "You damned brat, shut up!"
"Quiet down!"
It would have been better if he hadn't hit him.
After a few lashes of the whip, the thoroughbred became even more agitated.
A wicked smile appeared on Lu Chenyang's face.
Before he went to prison, he spent a lot of time living in the mountains with his master.
He beat the wolves, tigers, and leopards in the Hundred Thousand Mountains into submission.
Dealing with livestock like horses doesn't require any physical action; all you need is a whistle.
If one whistle isn't enough, then bring a second one.
Seeing that Hou Xiaojian was struggling on horseback, Lu Chenyang decided to add fuel to the fire.
beep……
Another whistle rang out.
The thoroughbred horse seemed to have heard some terrifying sound.
The horse's entire body shook even more violently.
bang...
Hou Xiaojian was thrown three to five meters by the horse and crashed heavily to the ground.
Even though he had some martial arts skills, falling twice in a row left him completely disoriented.
"Young Master Hou!"
"Young Master Hou!"
"Brother Xiao Jian!"
The elegantly dressed men and women immediately rushed forward to help Hou Xiaojian.
But before they even got close to him...
Then, a thoroughbred horse galloped up to Hou Xiaojian.
With a quick bend of its front hooves, it straddled Hou Xiaojian's back.
Everyone present was both shy and shocked.
What the hell!
What's happening here?
Horse riding a person?
Lu Chenyang was right.
Hou Xiaojian used to ride the horse for too long, but now the tables have turned and it's the horse's turn to ride the rider.
Such a scene was simply unprecedented and unheard of.
The crucial point is that riding the horse wasn't enough for him; he actually started...
