Chapter 20 "Oh, I'm afraid of losing to you? What a joke..."
When Xie Qinghuan arrived at the preparation area, his legs felt a little weak.
Although she can ride a horse, she has never played competitive games like polo!
The noble ladies on the same team looked at her with disdain and talked about her in low voices.
"What a sin! Why am I on the same team with her? Isn't it a sure loss?"
"Who knows? I'm afraid even the riding clothes were changed by the maids..."
Xie Qinghuan was annoyed by what he said and glanced at them warningly.
It finally quieted down.
The whole audience was boiling when Ji Wanjun came on stage.
"Wanjun is here!"
"Miss Ji is here..."
Ji Wanjun smiled at her admirers and waved her hand.
But when he saw Xie Qinghuan, his face darkened.
He turned around and asked his teammates behind him.
"Is this a mistake? Let me fight her? Who arranged this fight?"
The teammate stepped forward and whispered back.
"Miss Ji, that's right, it was arranged by Madam Luo!"
Ji Wanjun looked Xie Qinghuan up and down and shook her head.
Protest loudly to those outside the venue.
"Madam Luo, I won't fight her! She's so delicate and lithe, how can I fight her? Even if I win, it's not a fair victory!"
Her teammates echoed her sentiments.
"Exactly, how should I fight her... What if she gets hurt again? How will my father explain to the Prime Minister?"
"Yeah! I can't have fun if I'm tied up!"
Even Xie Qinghuan's teammates boldly spoke up.
"We don't want to be on the same team with her either!"
"We might as well admit defeat if we're on the same team with her!"
Ren Shaolan felt a little embarrassed when he saw this. He looked at General Luo and said thoughtfully:
"Father, look at this..."
General Luo slammed the table, somewhat annoyed.
"Fight! I want to see who dares to look down on my good grandson! Fight her—"
Yu Luo, who was also waiting outside the venue, was also shaking her sleeves angrily.
"That's right, how dare you look down on my lady! Lady! Beat them up!"
"But the young lady has never ridden a horse, so it's okay if she doesn't fight..."
Yuzhu was a little calmer, worried that the young lady might be in danger.
Chu Hanxiao clenched his fists.
Looking at the little Xie Qinghuan from afar, he held the golf club with both hands, looked at Ji Wanjun, and then looked at his teammates behind him.
Being excluded by everyone, he stood alone and helpless in the field.
He was very heartbroken.
I wish I could go on the court and play for her!
But at this moment, Xie Qinghuan was unusually calm.
Seeing everyone protesting, she turned to Ji Wanjun and spoke calmly.
"Miss Ji, are you worried that I am too weak to be your opponent... or are you worried that you will be defeated by someone as vulnerable as me?"
Ji Wanjun sneered when she heard that.
"Oh, I'm afraid of losing to you? That's a joke..."
"Then how about fighting with me?"
Ji Wanjun looked at Xie Qinghuan with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
It seems that he feels that she is different from what was rumored.
I didn't expect that she would be so courageous, or... so ignorant of herself.
She turned around and looked at Xie Qinghuan.
"Okay, but you don't even have any teammates...how do you fight?"
This made Xie Qinghuan a little embarrassed.
In her previous life, she disdained to make friends with the noble ladies in the capital, and indeed had no close friends among the ladies in the boudoir.
now……
She gritted her teeth and threw away the polo club.
"Then we won't play polo! How about something else?"
"Other things? Haha...compared to what? Embroidery?"
Ji Wanjun did not hide her disdain.
Xie Qinghuan clenched his fists but didn't bother with her.
I was thinking in my mind how to beat her and make her cry on the horse field!
"We're competing in horseback riding—capture the flag on horseback."
Ji Wanjun was surprised for a moment, but still responded.
"Okay, I'll stay with you till the end."
Afterwards, the referee came forward to read out the rules of the game and irrelevant personnel left the field.
"Capture the flag on horseback, a one-on-one single-player competition. Within the racecourse, the first person to capture the flag is considered the winner; falling off the horse or going out of bounds are considered the loser."
After the rules were read out, Xie Qinghuan and Ji Wanjun got on their horses.
The cheers for Ji Wanjun from outside the venue were getting louder and louder.
The only ones who cheered for Xie Qinghuan were Yuzhu Yuluo and... the old general...
Xie Qinghuan didn't care about these things.
As soon as the gong sounded, he was the first to beat his horse.
To everyone's surprise, Xie Qinghuan rode the horse very steadily.
And there was a surge of energy all over his body, as powerful as a bamboo breaking through, and as sharp as a long blade.
The onlookers couldn't help but exclaim:
"She can ride a horse?"
"Doesn't she always say that horse racing makes you sweat and smell? Doesn't she hate playing polo? When did she learn to ride a horse?"
The old general who was watching from the main seat laughed out loud when he heard this:
"This is my general's daughter! How could she not know how to ride a horse?"
It made Ren Shaolan very upset.
Father, you just advised her not to go down, saying it was dangerous...
You just found out that she can ride a horse!
but……
I really didn't expect that this girl looked so weak.
He is so good at riding a horse!
While galloping, he can also dodge Ji Wanjun's attacks.
You can also use fake moves left and right to influence the opponent's judgment!
Not to mention the unity of man and horse, but also the ability to control the horse freely...
"Ah, Miss Ji is going to use her best move, 'Dragon Tail Swing'!"
"She's dead, Miss Xie is dead!"
Ren Shaolan looked over and saw Ji Wanjun supporting herself on the horse's back with one hand, spinning with one leg, and running straight towards Xie Qinghuan's face!
Everyone watching held their breath.
Even the old general stood up nervously.
Xie Qinghuan also noticed Ji Wanjun's attack, but it was too late to rein in his horse...
How to do?
She lay on her back with her feet hooked in the stirrups.
He barely managed to avoid Ji Wanjun's attack, but the reins were too tight.
The brown horse neighed, lifted its front hooves off the ground, and stood up.
Xie Qinghuan was about to fall off the horse.
The old general and Ren Shaolan both nervously called out her name!
"Qing Huan!"
If I fall and hit my back, then...
But how can I explain this to the Prime Minister’s Office?
Unexpectedly, Xie Qinghuan hooked the horse with one kick and spun around with the other!
He learned it right away and kicked Ji Wanjun!
The kick came so suddenly that Ji Wanjun almost fell off her horse.
Xie Qinghuan sat back on the horse steadily and straightened his body.
She glanced at Ji Wanjun triumphantly and urged her horse to be far ahead.
The whole audience was sweating for her.
Then, the whole audience cheered.
Chu Hanxiao breathed a sigh of relief, but when he came to his senses again, his palms were covered in cold sweat.
My scalp is tingling and my brain is blank...
Only then did he realize how afraid he was that something might happen to her!
Maybe he was afraid of getting angry at the Prime Minister...
After all, he was her bodyguard.
If anything happens to her, he won't be able to survive!
Chu Hanxiao was still staring at his palm in a daze, and the whole audience exclaimed again.
original……
She had already flown up to grab the flag and landed on the ground.
Holding flags and cheering outside the stadium.
Watching her smiling triumphantly with beads of sweat on her face.
He couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
however……
Just when everyone relaxed their tense nerves and began to discuss and admire...
Ji Wanjun's exclamation came from the field again -
"Xie Qinghuan! Get out of the way!!!"
Maybe she hit the horse too quickly just now and her horse was frightened!
It was out of her control.
The tighter the reins were, the more excited the horse became.
Just as he was about to bump into Xie Qinghuan, Xie Qinghuan's claws became numb...
He stood there in a daze, unable to move.
"Qing Huan!"
The old general was sitting on a high place with a good view, but he was far away from her.
Seeing this, he turned around and stepped down, but was always slow.
The guards filed in, but were still unable to catch up.
Seeing that the horse had already raised its front hooves, it was about to trample Xie Qinghuan...
Chu Hanxiao suddenly found speed from nowhere, hugged Xie Qinghuan, turned around, and pulled her out from under the horse's hooves!
Then, the four looked at each other, all of them were still in shock...
