After the divorce, I became a mountain god
Chapter 567 Horse Racing
"Mr. Xu, a distinguished gold member of our racecourse, announces the holding of the 137th horse racing competition. All customers present today can participate. The top five winners will receive rewards. Everyone is welcome to participate."
As soon as the standard announcer's voice fell, an arrogant voice was heard coming from the speakers.
"Qu Feifan, I know you are still here. I will personally compete in this competition, and I hope you can come and participate. If you win, I will return your new car that you lost to me last time. How about that?"
The sound effects at the racecourse were very good, and these words were transmitted to every corner of the racecourse, causing a lot of discussion at once.
The moment he heard this, Qu Feifan's eyes blazed with fire and his face turned red, which was unusual for him. He looked very embarrassed.
After all, what happened today was really embarrassing.
He was called out in public and it was announced that he had lost the last race and had lost a car.
This was not just a matter of winning or losing and the car, it was also a matter of Qu Feifan's total loss of face, and became a hot topic of discussion among the people present.
Xu Bo'an had good hearing and soon heard the topic of Qu Feifan being brought up in the conversations of several small groups around him.
"Hey, who is this Qu Feifan? Why is Mr. Xu so disrespectful to him?"
"Qu Feifan is the young master of our Jiangcheng Qu Group. I don't need to introduce the Qu Group in detail. Mr. Xu is called Xu Ming, and the two have always been at odds with each other."
"I see. It's a fight between two rich young masters. But it sounds like this Young Master Qu is at a disadvantage. He even lost his car."
"Hey, you still don't know what car Mr. Qu entered?"
"Hey, I was just about to ask, the cars these young masters drive must be luxury cars worth at least one or two million!"
"A luxury car worth one or two million! Haha, you underestimate the wealth of the young masters of Jiangcheng's rich families. What Young Master Qu lost was a new Bugatti Veyron worth more than five million. It is said that it cost a lot of money to modify it. He hadn't even driven it for a few months when he got carried away and was won by Young Master Xu!"
Similar chat content was prevalent in different small groups, and even Xu Bo'an, who knew nothing about it, got to know a little bit of the truth of the matter.
No matter what kind of past Qu Feifan and Xu Ming had, based on this incident alone, Qu Feifan really embarrassed himself.
No wonder Qu Feifan acted a little out of control when he saw Xu Ming just now, not like his usual self.
Qu Feifan clenched his fists with an unsightly look on his face, gnashing his teeth, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a while, Qu Feifan suddenly forced out a smile and said in a self-deprecating tone: "Mr. Xu, I am really sorry to have embarrassed you. I wanted to invite you to relax and have fun today, but I didn't expect to encounter such a mess. I hope it didn't affect your mood."
Qu Feifan had originally wanted to show Xu Bo'an some of his resources and strengths today, but before they could even start talking about the real issues, he was broken down by Xu Ming. This made Qu Feifan a little overwhelmed, and he really miscalculated.
Without waiting for Xu Boan to speak, Zhong Zhao on the side said with some regret: "Humph, you deserve it! I advised you at the beginning not to play racing when you have nothing to do! Your mentality is really not good! I also heard something about what happened last time, but I don’t understand it. Xu Ming is a horse racer. This is known to almost everyone in our circle in Jiangcheng. You know that you are no match for Xu Ming, so why are you so crazy that you want to race with him? Is there something wrong with your brain!"
Qu Feifan said with a guilty look on his face: "Before, I wanted to modify the off-road vehicle that runs on mountain roads. Xu Ming's family runs a car business. I know that Xu Ming's family has a very good repairman who can meet my requirements for modifying the car. Because I need help from others, and the guy said that he would use an ordinary horse to race with me, I was stunned for a moment. I thought I would have some chance of winning!"
Zhong Zhao looked at Qu Feifan speechlessly and said, "Why? So, your matter has something to do with me? If it weren't for me, you wouldn't be studying mountain bike racing, right?"
Qu Feifan hurriedly explained: "That's not what I meant, Miss Zhong. I was just worried that Mr. Xu might misunderstand that I have some bad hobbies, so I explained it. After all, it's not a good thing to love to bet with others."
After hearing Qu Feifan's explanation, Zhong Zhao snorted coldly and said nothing more. Instead, he explained to Xu Bo'an, "Mr. Xu, let's just play our own game. Xu Ming is the most boring guy, so let's just ignore him."
Xu Bo'an nodded and said, "I am a guest today, so I will follow your arrangements."
Qu Feifan ignored Xu Ming's shouting and immediately started playing the horse riding game with Xu Bo'an and Zhong Zhao.
Xu Boan had never ridden a horse before, but after riding for a while, he found that he was quite interested in it.
Looking at Qu Feifan and Zhong Zhao's skillful horse riding movements and the expressions of enjoyment on their faces, Xu Bo'an was extremely envious. However, he had only learned it for a short while, so it was obviously impossible for him to make such great progress so quickly.
Xu Boan originally wanted to use some of his incense and wish power to enhance his horse riding skill, so that he could improve his horse riding level to a higher level and enjoy the pleasure of riding more fully. However, after thinking about it carefully, Xu Boan felt that it was not cost-effective.
Although Xu Boan is not short of those wiels of incense and vows, there are too many means of transportation for him to choose from at the moment.
Whether it's a shared bicycle or tram for short distances, a taxi or driving yourself, or a long-distance bus, high-speed train or airplane, all of them are more practical than riding a horse.
Therefore, in Xu Bo'an's opinion, horse riding is not a necessary skill, at least not comparable to driving skills.
As for the means of travel within the bonsai, although riding a horse is still a mainstream means of transportation in the bonsai world, that is only for ordinary people. Xu Boan is a mountain god with magical powers. A magical power like the Earth Escape Technique is many times faster than riding a horse, and it is also more high-end and classy!
Based on the principle of saving where possible and spending where possible, Xu Boan resisted the urge to cheat and did not upgrade his horse riding skills.
I just rode the horse slowly around the field for a long time, but there was no obvious improvement.
Qu Feifan deliberately ignored Xu Ming's provocation, but sometimes simply avoiding him was not enough.
Seeing that Qu Feifan had not responded to his provocation, Xu Ming suddenly felt that his taunting skill was like a fist hitting cotton, extremely useless.
Xu Ming became more and more angry, so he went straight to Qu Feifan. At that moment, Qu Feifan was carefully instructing Xu Bo'an on some detailed horse riding techniques.
Suddenly, someone was shouted in a very imposing voice: "Young Master Qu, I have already invited you. Whether you attend or not, you have to give me some news. It's too disrespectful for me to just let it go like this without even giving me a definite answer." Looking in the direction of the voice, he saw a man riding a tall horse walking slowly towards him not far away. The man on the horse was Xu Ming.
Qu Feifan drove his horse in front of Xu Ming. Because of the height of the horse, Qu Feifan was half a head shorter than Xu Ming, looking a little unimposing.
"Xu Ming, I have something important to do today and don't have time to play with you. I hope you can respect yourself and not disturb me." Qu Feifan said gritting his teeth.
Xu Ming looked nonchalant and said, "Who is joking with you? A man's word is as good as his bond. Mr. Qu, I have already invited you. Don't you want to win back your own car? What's the point of playing with these short-legged ponies played by women? If you keep playing like this, you will soon be like your companion, unable to even run."
Because Xu Boan had just started riding a horse, he could only pull the reins to make the horse walk normally, and had not yet started to practice riding a horse to gallop. Unexpectedly, he suffered an unexpected disaster because of this, and was used as a negative example by Xu Ming to stimulate Qu Feifan to compete with him.
However, what Xu Ming did not expect was that before he could provoke Qu Feifan, he had already offended Xu Bo'an and caused Xu Bo'an's dissatisfaction.
Xu Boan had always been thinking about the principle of having fun, and just wanted to experience horse riding for fun. He didn't expect that his idea of not competing with the world and doing his duty would be ridiculed by Xu Ming.
Xu Bo'an is not the type of person who would suffer a loss. When he heard this, a trace of displeasure flashed through his heart.
There is a road to heaven but you don't take it. Instead, you insist on taking the road to hell, which has no door.
Okay, in that case, I'll grant your wish.
With this in mind, Xu Boan immediately thought of a way to make Xu Ming lose face.
Qu Feifan was standing in front, not knowing how to respond to Xu Ming's words, when he heard the sound of horse hooves ticking behind him, followed by Xu Bo'an's voice.
"Qu Feifan, I think this horse racing competition is quite interesting. I want to participate, but I'm not qualified yet. Since you've been invited, just join in."
When Qu Feifan heard Xu Bo'an suddenly and inexplicably intervene in this topic, he subconsciously looked at Xu Bo'an, and saw Xu Bo'an nodded slightly with a firm look in his eyes, indicating that he should just agree.
Thinking of the fact that Xu Boan had predicted twice what would happen next, Qu Feifan suddenly felt happy and a bold idea flashed through his mind.
Could it be that what Xu Boan meant was that he had already calculated that he would win this time after participating in the competition!
Seeing this, Qu Feifan no longer hesitated and nodded immediately, saying, "Originally, I didn't want to participate in your boring race. As for the car, I'll give it to you. It's not like I don't have a car to drive. But since my friend said horse racing is fun, I'll have another race with you so that my friend can have some fun."
Xu Ming was very satisfied when he heard this, and immediately laughed out loud: "Haha, very good, right? Now you act like a real man."
"What do you mean by 'like'? I am a man! Just tell me, when will the game start?" Qu Feifan asked impatiently.
Xu Ming explained, "It will only take about ten minutes. Just wait for a moment, Mr. Qu. But let's be frank. If I lose, I will return your car to you. But what if you lose again? What else do you want to bet on?"
Qu Feifan rolled his eyes and said, "Oh, you're waiting for me here. Tell me, I want to see what tricks you're going to play on me!"
Xu Ming smiled and said, "Mr. Qu, you are joking. I am just trying to be fair. How about this? In order to avoid you misunderstanding me, if you lose again, just give me the equivalent amount in cash. There is no trick to this, right?"
Qu Feifan thought about it and then nodded to agree to Xu Ming's proposal.
Soon, Xu Ming happily started preparing for the competition.
Seeing Xu Ming walking away, Qu Feifan couldn't wait to ask Xu Bo'an: "Mr. Xu, did you really expect me to beat him when you asked me to participate in this competition?"
Xu Boan shook his head and said, "It's such a small matter, I won't bother with it!"
"Then you..." Qu Feifan was shocked when he heard that. He was about to ask Xu Bo'an, "If that's the case, why do you let me participate in this? Isn't this just embarrassing me?"
But thinking that it was not appropriate for him to question Xu Bo'an like this, Qu Feifan said tactfully: "Mr. Xu, you may not know that Xu Ming's horse is a professional racehorse. I heard that he has participated in many professional competitions and won some prestigious awards. To be honest, my chances of winning a race with him are really slim."
Xu Bo'an's voice came again, still in such a calm tone: "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. It'll be fine."
Qu Feifan smiled bitterly, trying to get Xu Bo'an to come up with some convincing solution, so he asked, "Mr. Xu, specifically..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhong interrupted and said, "Are you annoying, Qu Feifan? Why are you dithering like a woman? No, even more dithering than a woman. Mr. Xu's words have been so obvious, why are you still worrying about nothing?"
Hearing Zhong Zhao's words, Qu Feifan forced out an awkward smile and said, "That's not what I meant. I meant... forget it. I'll go pick a new horse right now."
Having said this, Qu Feifan looked at Xu Bo'an with some hesitation and said, "Mr. Xu, how about... you come with me? Help me choose which horse to choose!"
Xu Bo'an shook his head slightly and said, "No need to go through so much trouble. The horse you are riding now is fine!"
Qu Feifan muttered subconsciously: "Ah! I just picked it randomly. I just like it."
Xu Bo'an smiled and ignored Qu Feifan. Instead, he walked to Qu Feifan's horse, patted the horse's head gently, and then slowly stroked the hair on its neck along its fur. He leaned close to its ear, as if he was muttering something.
Zhong Zhao, who was standing by, wanted to mock Qu Feifan for his nagging attitude, but when he saw Xu Bo'an's behavior, he became curious and asked hurriedly, "What are you doing? Are you talking to a horse?"
Xu Bo'an smiled lightly, with a joking tone, but his eyes were full of confidence, and said: "Yes, I ask it to work harder and help Mr. Qu win this game." (End of this chapter)
