Chapter 844: The Thrill Of Life And Death
Seeing how calm and composed Jiang Xuecheng was in tying the ribbon, the people present could not help but feel some inexplicable admiration.
The staff was even more excited.
Today was going to be a grand occasion!
He had stayed in this Equestrian Club for more than ten years and had seen all kinds of horse racing methods. But he had never seen such horse riding with the rider’s eyes closed, and he was even willing to bet a person’s life on it!
It was extremely exciting!
After Jiang Xuecheng finished tying the ribbon, he immediately stood still on the field. He was not in a hurry to get on the horse. Instead, he put his head next to Lightning’s cheek, looking extremely intimate.
Then, Jiang Xuecheng stretched out his hand and slowly combed Lightning’s mane.
Jiang Xuecheng’s hands were very beautiful. They were as white and slender as a pianist’s hands. His bones and flesh were well-proportioned, and his knuckles were distinct.
At this moment, he was combing Lightning’s mane as if he was taking care of a work of art. He whispered something into Lightning’s ear.
The man and the horse were in an intimate position. The atmosphere was harmonious and people could not help but take a second look at them.
Diya and Fiennes looked at each other. They did not know if Jiang Xuecheng was stalling for time.
It could not be that Jiang Xuecheng had the ability to communicate with animals, right?
This was too ridiculous!
Then Fiennes and Diya couldn’t help but look at Su Wan, wanting to see if there was even a hint of fear on Su Wan’s face.
But they were soon disappointed.
The smile on Su Wan’s beautiful face was faint, and she looked very gently at the man who was interacting with Lightning not far away.
Anyone could see that Su Wan’s almond-shaped eyes were full of affection.
It was as if what awaited her next was not a life-and-death test, but a date with her sweetheart.
Diya snorted in annoyance. She was unwilling to admit that Su Wan was really not afraid. This woman was definitely faking it!
“Hey, His Highness is ready to go. Why aren’t you going over?”
Diya had an arrogant smile on her face. She pouted at Su Wan in disdain.
Su Wan could hear the displeasure in Diya’s tone, but she was not angry at all. Instead, she walked calmly towards the track twenty meters away.
As she walked, she would occasionally turn around to look at Jiang Xuecheng.
Jiang Xuecheng had already flipped over cleanly and sat upright on his horse. His movements were extremely elegant.
Jiang Xuecheng held the reins indifferently. Although his face was covered with a black ribbon, his posture was like a king who looked down on the world!
It made people want to wors.h.i.+p him!
The wind blew gently, blowing the ribbon on Jiang Xuecheng’s face into the wind.
The sky was blue. Under the bright suns.h.i.+ne, this man was so eye-catching. He did not need any words or even half a glance to attract everyone’s attention.
Su Wan stared at the man and the horse, and could not help but smile.
For some reason, the more relaxed Jiang Xuecheng was, the more relaxed she felt.
She had always trusted him.
Jiang Xuecheng would not harm her.
…
Su Wan soon arrived at the track 20 meters away. She was dressed in light blue clothes, which looked like a bunch of beautiful irises from afar.
The staff, who was acting as a temporary referee, asked Su Wan from afar.
“Are you ready?”
Su Wan nodded lightly with a faint smile on her face.
“Yes! I’m ready to start at any time!”
Perhaps her appearance was not the most eye-catching among the crowd, but when you saw the smile on Su Wan’s face, you could not help but be dazzled and mesmerized.
This was Su Wan’s unique charm.
When the staff saw that Su Wan had agreed to start the compet.i.tion, he bowed his head respectfully to Jiang Xuecheng and earnestly asked for instructions.
“Your Highness, Miss Su is ready. What about you?”
Jiang Xuecheng nodded casually. Because he was blindfolded with a black ribbon, no one could see the look in Jiang Xuecheng’s eyes at this moment, but the smile on his lips was enough to notice.
He was so calm and confident.
Seeing that Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan were so calm, the staff couldn’t help but feel worried.
The staff looked at Su Wan again. Tsk, such a beautiful woman, she better not be injured.
Even if Su Wan was scared and jumped away halfway, her life was still the most important thing!
The staff prayed silently that Su Wan would be okay, then finally took a deep breath and shouted.
“Let the compet.i.tion begin!”
…
Before the staff finished his sentence, he saw Jiang Xuecheng pull the reins!
In an instant, the Lightning that Jiang Xuecheng was riding immediately sped forward like a black streak of light that could be caught by the human eye!
It was only a short distance of twenty meters from Su Wan. No one had expected that Jiang Xuecheng would ride so fast, as if he was flying!
Was he really not afraid of hitting Su Wan?!
The black ribbon on Jiang Xuecheng’s face fluttered in the wind. He rode on his horse, and his strong figure seemed to have become one with the black Lightning. One man and one horse, with an intimidating height.
With a distance of ten meters and a few leaps, it would not be long before Jiang Xuecheng rode on the Lightning and stepped on Su Wan’s body!
Oh G.o.d!
Everyone’s hearts were in their throats. Because they could not speak to interrupt the compet.i.tion, it was as if someone was drumming in their hearts, but no one dared to say a word.
Was Su Wan really not going to dodge?
If she did, then even if Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng lost, she would at least be able to keep her life!
Fiennes narrowed his eyes slightly. His gaze was deep, and he could not help but look at Su Wan a few more times.
Su Wan did not dodge. She was indifferent as if she could not feel the dust in front of her at all.
What would it feel like to have someone by your side who was willing to give up everything for you, even risking their life?
It was no wonder that the emperor would be so devoted to Su Wan
Su Wan was indeed different from the rest…
Thousands of thoughts ran through Fiennes’ mind, but Diya was already scared out of her wits.
She held onto Fiennes’ wrist tightly. Although she usually could not bear to see Su Wan well, now that she saw such a scene, she actually could not bear to see Su Wan being trampled into a pile of ground meat!
How could Su Wan neither scream nor dodge!
Even if the person on the track was not her, Diya felt that half of her soul had been scared out of her.
…
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng’s galloping horse approaching her. She did not know why, but she did not feel the slightest bit of panic in her heart.
Instead, she felt as if her entire body was empty.
Her clear almond-shaped eyes flashed as she looked at the vigorous posture of Jiang Xuecheng in a daze.
This kind of Jiang Xuecheng was something that Su Wan had never seen before!
However, it was really very handsome. Even if he was blindfolded, he was also very handsome!
When he was less than a meter away from Su Wan, the horse’s speed did not slow down!
Everyone’s heart skipped a beat, and they even felt a little suffocated.
In a few seconds, Lightning’s galloping horse hooves would step on Su Wan’s face!
She would probably be injured even if she did not die!
