Xu Qin's heart pounded.

This sudden stroke of luck left her overwhelmed, and it took her a long time to calm herself down.

She immediately returned to the room the shop owner had to prepare for her, washed up and dressed again, choosing clothes that made her look slimmer.

Looking at himself in the mirror, he became increasingly satisfied.

I went to the pharmacy next door and bought some medicine I needed. Then I turned back and found the shop owner. I said softly, "Boss, you must be tired. Let me help you with something."

The shop owner was indeed very tired, almost to the point of exhaustion, and was sweating profusely. Hearing this, he was quite happy.

When he turned his head, he saw Xu Qin and his face immediately showed astonishment.

"you?"

"Yes, I'll take care of the horses for you."

"It's you?"

The shop owner was bewildered and instinctively looked up at the sun outside, wondering if it was rising in the west today.

Xu Qin's job at his shop was bookkeeping, a job she was obligated to do, but she was often delayed for various reasons.

Now, they're offering to help him look after the horses?!

This... a change of heart?

Or perhaps... they were frightened because they heard that the imperial army had entered the city?

"Boss, I think that horse outside is quite nice. I'll take care of it for you."

The shop owner suddenly realized.

It turns out they noticed how magnificent the horse was and wanted to get closer!

"She probably thought the horse's owner was someone special, so she wanted to create an opportunity for herself."

"That fulfilled her dream of going on a blind date."

The shop owner, guessing Xu Qin's thoughts, immediately shook his head and said, "No need. I've taken good care of that horse. Once it has eaten its hay and bean feed, it'll be ready to be taken away."

"Nothing needs to be done."

"If you really care, help me clean up the shop. Can't you see how messy and dirty it is? Besides, it's your job to do this anyway."

The shop owner's contract with Xu Qin mainly involved bookkeeping, but due to a shortage of manpower, there were other miscellaneous tasks required. After all, the shop owner was forced to pay a considerable salary.

Xu Qin refused outright: "I'm only taking care of that horse. You can't just say no. I'm a member of the Tongxin Alliance. If you refuse, I'll report you to the authorities and say you're mistreating those of us who are pursuing love!"

With another sentence, Xu Qin swallowed back all the words the boss wanted to say, and left the room on her own, walking to the stable.

The jade unicorn was engrossed in eating grass.

Having not been able to enjoy a proper meal in a long time, the jade unicorn was now eating with abandon. If horses had facial expressions, their expressions at this moment would surely be joyful.

However, the horse's mood also affects its demeanor and spirit. Because the jade unicorn was so relaxed, it appeared even more majestic and dashing, captivating all who looked at it.

Xu Qin was overjoyed to see this.

A scene seemed to appear before my eyes: a jade-faced general, holding a red-tasseled spear, riding slowly towards me on horseback.

Her little face started to turn rosy.

He reached out and stroked the horse's back, whispering, "What a fine horse! My happiness for the rest of my life depends entirely on you."

Looking around, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he immediately mixed the medicine he had just bought from the pharmacy with grass and beans and fed it to the jade unicorn.

She bought croton, wolfsbane, and even some poisonous herbs. When these were mixed with the feed and the horses ate them, the horses would soon develop problems.

Severe diarrhea, cramps, and exhaustion!

Then... it might be fatal, or it might not!

Xu Qin couldn't explain these things clearly, but she knew she could definitely ruin the horse.

If something goes wrong with this horse, then...

The horse owner will come knocking!

"He must perfectly embody my image of the ideal husband, just like those described in the books I've read!"

With this beautiful dream in her heart, Xu Qin returned to her room, her heart pounding, waiting for the most suitable opportunity to appear.

However, my mind was still churning, and I couldn't calm down.

Scene after scene, frame after frame, emerges.

The horse owner discovered the problem with her horse and came to her door, but she had accidentally damaged the horse and couldn't afford to replace such a fine horse.

Then, the handsome and domineering horse owner would make a request, asking her to work closely with him to pay off his debts.

She will stay by the horse owner's side.

However, she is individualistic, unafraid of authority, and has her own ideas. She and the horse owner will inevitably clash, leading to frequent arguments and friction.

She and the horse owner were locked in a power struggle.

However, the horse owner will gradually discover her unparalleled virtues and then fall irrevocably in love with her.

After that, the horse owner would verbally make things difficult for her and create all sorts of trouble for her, but in reality, he would silently protect her and secretly defend her.

Until the ugly woman beside the horse owner deliberately made things difficult for her, causing her to encounter an insurmountable obstacle, at which point the horse owner would no longer pretend.

The horse owner will step forward forcefully to expose those vile women and seek justice for her.

And then...

The two would then have physical contact, and the horse owner became increasingly unable to extricate himself. The two would talk alone at night, revealing their pure souls to each other, and had become close friends.

In the end...

"It must have been the horse owner who risked his life to save me in my time of crisis. In that case, his aloof and domineering persona would have been completely ruined."

"You can only possess me obsessively, forcing yourself to love me!"

Almost instantly, Xu Qin conjured up a scene in her mind and, drawing on all the books she had read over the years, came up with the best script.

She was overjoyed and her heart fluttered with desire, making it hard for her to contain herself!

"I will not let this ending, which was tailor-made for me, down. I will definitely let the horse owner see my golden personality and charm."

Xu Qin thought and waited.

She didn't have to wait long. Soon, a commotion arose outside, followed by a furious roar that shattered the roof tiles!

"Boss, do you have a death wish?!"

"I asked you to look after my horse, why is it foaming at the mouth? Why has it collapsed?"

"What the hell did you feed it?"

The voice was so crude that Xu Qin frowned immediately.

Because it was completely different from the horse owner she had imagined, fortunately, she was well-read and understood the intricacies of the matter, and quickly figured it out.

"They must be Master Ma's subordinates. So, Master Ma's subordinates will definitely go to Master Ma, and Master Ma will arrive soon."

"I can't let the shop owner snatch such a good opportunity."

Xu Qin quickly came out of the house and saw that the shop owner was covered in sweat. He hurriedly apologized, "Sir, sir, I, I didn't know! I fed this horse the best hay and bean feed. I really fed it the best."

"There wasn't any other random stuff mixed in."

"Sir, it's true! It's true!"

The shop owner had already knelt down in fear!
