Chapter 657 - 657 The Horse Suddenly Fell Down
657 The Horse Suddenly Fell Down
The horse suddenly went crazy and walked toward Jiang Ming. It even rubbed against his body! It was as if it could not bear to part with Jiang Ming.
“Huh? Wasn’t he trembling just now?”
Zhu Asi was dumbfounded.
The horse’s att.i.tude had changed so quickly.
Jiang Ming could not help but feel a little surprised.
He had thought that the horse was afraid of him, but it seemed that there was a different meaning behind its trembling.
“It seems that this horse likes Ning Caichen. It wasn’t trembling in fear like we thought it was!”
Zhu An’an felt that it was strange.
“What’s wrong? Am I not worthy of its love?” Zhu Asi joked.
Unexpectedly, when the horse heard him, it shook its head at Zhu Asi as if it had intelligence.
This made Zhu Asi extremely angry.
“This horse is really arrogant. If it wasn’t Ning Caichen’s horse, I would have smacked it.”
Hearing these words, the horse moved back, allowing Jiang Ming to be in front of it.
Zhu Asi saw the horse’s actions and was simultaneously angry and amused.
This horse was too smart for its own good!
The horse beside Long Qingqing had gotten into an accident.
It suddenly fell down and almost hit Long Qingqing.
Jiang Ming had noticed the condition of the horse beside Long Qingqing earlier, so he took its reigns and pulled Long Qingqing away.
“What’s with this horse-riding place? What’s wrong with this horse?”
Long Qingqing was displeased.
In her opinion, the coachman was charging a lot, but the quality of the horse was not up to par.
The coachman happened to be walking over with two other horses. He saw the horse beside Long Qingqing fall down, and his heart ached for the horse.
He scolded them angrily. “I just went out for a while and this horse already fell down. Did you do something to him? He’s a fine Ferghana horse, so he won’t just collapse like that.”
Jiang Ming was furious when he heard the accusations.
“We only touched it. Who knows how it fell? As for you, how are we going to solve this problem by giving us defective horses?”
The coachman sneered and stood up to argue with Jiang Ming and the others.
“This is indeed a high-quality Ferghana horse. May the heavens strike me down if I lie. You must have done something to it. Otherwise, this horse wouldn’t have fallen!”
Zhu Asi was so angry that he laughed. “Why would the four of us mess with your horse? According to our status, we can have as many horses as we want. Why do we have to abuse this horse?”
Zhu An’an was also speechless. “That’s right. We don’t care about your horse at all. Why don’t you take a look at our status?”
As she spoke, she pursed her lips, looking completely unhappy.
Long Qingqing was infuriated. “How dare you spout nonsense and slander us? If you really think we’ve attacked your horse, show us the evidence!”
“This horse is lying here on the ground. That’s enough evidence. I don’t care. You have to compensate me with ten million taels of silver.”
The coachman continued to press on.
The commotion attracted the surrounding pedestrians. They walked over one after another and surrounded them in a big circle.
Seeing the coachman’s arrogant att.i.tude, Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows.
The coachman did not seem to be afraid of them at all.
Putting everything else aside, it was understandable that the coachman did not know them, but how could he not know Long Qingqing?
If Long Qingqing was unhappy, the Long family would take her side, and the horse farm would be gone.
“Were you instigated to do this by someone?”
Jiang Ming could not help but ask.
Hearing this, the coachman rolled his eyes. “No. You have to take responsibility. Either silver or your lives.”
As he spoke, killing intent flashed in the coachman’s eyes.
Zhu Asi saw the killing intent clearly. “Why would you kill us if we don’t compensate you? What kind of behavior is this? We won’t stay here any longer.”
Zhu An’an felt that the way he addressed them was unreasonable, so she followed suit. “It’s impossible to pay you back. This has nothing to do with us. Believe it or not.”
Long Qingqing followed suit. “With your att.i.tude, it’s no wonder that not many people are angry with you.”
She was speechless. Wasn’t this a threat? They were customers!
“Yes, if you don’t pay me back, I’ll kill you!”
The coachman instantly became ruthless. He looked at Jiang Ming and the others murderously.
Long Qingqing was furious. “I’m the eldest daughter of the Long family. If you dare to touch me, Master Long will destroy your entire farm. Not to mention your current horse, when the time comes, all the horses in the entire farm will be buried with you.”
“Aren’t you just a daughter of the Long family? Even if the entire Long family comes, I won’t be afraid.”
The coachman rolled his eyes. Before Jiang Ming and the other three could say anything else, he rushed forward to stab Jiang Ming in the heart with a knife.
Zhu Asi and the other two could not even react. They only felt that the coachman had arrived beside Jiang Ming in a blur.
Jiang Ming, on the other hand, saw it clearly. When the coachman was about to stab him, he s.n.a.t.c.hed the coachman’s knife and threw it away.
Hearing the sound of the knife falling, Zhu Asi and the other two realized what had happened. They quickly attacked and rushed toward the coachman.
The coachman was very surprised by Jiang Ming’s speed, but he knew that the current situation did not allow him to hesitate.
Seeing that Zhu Asi and the others had already rushed over, the coachman dodged.
He was so fast that Zhu Asi and the other two could not even see his figure clearly.
Zhu Asi and the other two were panting heavily, but they could not catch the coachman at all.
“Come on, if you have the skills, continue charging over.”
The coachman was very arrogant. He stood not far away and sized up Zhu Asi and the other two.
“Sure.”
Jiang Ming answered for Zhu Asi and the other two. He rushed out and grabbed the coachman’s throat.
The coachman felt he was being lifted up, but he could not break free at all.
He wanted to escape quickly, but Jiang Ming grabbed him.
“You… How did you do that?”
The coachman was unwilling to give up. His eyes widened as struggled to escape.
However, Jiang Ming held him tightly, and he could not move at all.
“You have to apologize for what you did just now and do something to make up for it.”
Jiang Ming could not be bothered to talk nonsense with the coachman.
He was extremely unhappy with what the coachman had said just now.
