The Abandoned Young Master of a Wealthy Cultivation Family

Chapter 20 Gambling

Soon, Jiang Shaofeng made a phone call, said a few words, and then made an "OK" gesture to everyone.

This caused the crowd to cheer again.

"Young Master Jiang is indeed amazing!"

"The boss is incredibly resourceful! I admire you!"

Even Mu Xiyu's eyes were filled with anticipation. An equestrian club—a high-end place like this—wasn't accessible to just anyone! Su Bai, on the other hand, remained nonchalant. It was just a horse ride. He'd ridden the auspicious Qilin and the mythical Azure Dragon in the world of cultivation before, but he had no real interest in it.

..............

Jiangzhou City, Qingyuan Equestrian Club.

As soon as everyone arrived at the door, a short and fat middle-aged man in a black suit came to greet them.

"The presence of the eldest young master is truly a great honor to our humble home!"

Jiang Shaofeng didn't dare to be arrogant. He knew the other party was giving face to his father, so he quickly said, "Manager Zhang, you're too polite!"

"How is the City Lord doing recently? He hasn't come to play with us for a long time---"

"My father has been a bit busy lately, thank you for your concern, Manager Zhang."

After a few pleasantries, the short, fat manager left and arranged for a delicate female employee to come over. Given his status, he wouldn't be around a bunch of little guys. Being able to come out and greet them this time was already a big honor for Jiang Shaofeng.

The female staff member led everyone into the club and introduced them as they walked:

"Our club charges horseback riding fees based on saddle hours, which is 5000 yuan per saddle hour. If you want to choose a more advanced purebred horse or have a coach teach you, there will be additional fees."

"Also, since you're new here, you need to buy a set of riding gear, which costs 3 yuan each..."

Listening to the introduction, several young men and women couldn't help but smack their lips. One saddle time is 45 minutes, and riding for 45 minutes costs 5000 yuan! Although everyone present was well-off, they were secretly distressed when they heard about such a cost. Fortunately, they could still have fun if they squeezed in.

Others could afford it, but Mu Xiyu's face turned ugly. There was only less than 30,000 yuan in her card, not even enough to buy a set of riding clothes!

As if noticing Mu Xiyu's change, Jiang Shaofeng smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry, today is your birthday, you must have fun, and I'll cover all the expenses!"

Everyone suddenly became excited.

"Long live the young general!"

Mu Xiyu's eyes became more gentle. She looked at Jiang Shaofeng and bit her lip and said, "Thank you, Shaofeng!"

Being so grateful to a beauty like Mu Xiyu almost melted Shao Feng's heart. The pain he felt in his heart disappeared in an instant. He looked at Mu Xiyu with extremely gentle eyes: "Why are you being so polite to me? As long as you are happy!"

Seeing this, Tan Yuhan and the other girls looked at Mu Xiyu with envy in their eyes, wishing they could replace her. Unfortunately, Jiang Shaofeng was only interested in Mu Xiyu.

Everyone began to follow the coaches to choose their mounts. Su Bai followed behind them with an indifferent look. After everyone had chosen their coaches and horses, they all went to practice excitedly, leaving him alone there.

Mu Xiyu changed into a black hunting suit, with a small vest on the upper body, tight white breeches and brown riding boots on the lower body, and a female helmet. She looked heroic and had a different charm than before.

Jiang Shaofeng looked at Mu Xiyu at this moment, and his eyes became even hotter.

With the help of the female coach beside her, Mu Xiyu carefully rode on a chestnut horse, her pretty face flushed with excitement.

"This Welsh horse is the most docile mare in our stable. Since you are a novice, it is best to choose it first. After you become proficient, you can choose other racehorses." The female coach on the side introduced with a smile.

Looking at the other students, they were all like Mu Xiyu, and had just started riding with the help of the coach.

Seeing Su Bai standing here alone, a mixed-race male coach came over and said, "Sir, would you like to pick one as well? We have Mongolian horses and ponies for young people to ride."

"no need."

Su Bai waved his hand.

The main reason he came this time was to complete the task given to him by Xue Wanyun. How could he have the mind to ride a horse?

Seeing Su Bai's refusal, the mixed-race male coach was stunned.

Who would come to the club and not ride a horse, especially a boy?

He tried to explain, "Sir, the racehorses here are very docile, especially the ponies, which are very short. You won't get hurt if you ride them."

"I said no."

Su Bai said lightly.

Seeing this, the mixed-race male coach had no choice but to shut up, but a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.

Being born in England, the homeland of equestrianism, he has a natural sense of superiority towards those who dare not ride horses.

At this time, Jiang Shaofeng came riding over on a shiny black thoroughbred horse, looking very relaxed. When he saw Su Bai, he pretended to be surprised:

"Su Bai, why don't you ride?"

"Are you scared? Even girls like Xiyu and Yuhan dare to ride horses, so why are you so scared?"

Li Kaohsiung and a few others also rode over on horseback in an orderly manner, and when they saw Su Bai, they showed a sneer on their faces.

"Young Master Su, are you really scared? It's just riding a horse, you won't die from falling!"

Su Bai frowned at first, ignored Li Kaohsiung, and instead looked at Jiang Shaofeng with a smile.

"Now that you say that, do you dare to compete with me?"

"What did you say?" Jiang Shaofeng was incredulous. "You want to race horses with me? Did I hear correctly?"

"What, you don't dare?" Su Bai said lightly.

Li Kaohsiung and the others looked at Su Bai like he was an idiot, sneering, "Su Bai, are you crazy? Do you really think you're invincible just because you know a little bit of Kung Fu?"

"Did you know that Young Master Jiang started riding at the age of fifteen, and even made it to the top sixteen of the Jiangzhou City Amateur Equestrian Competition last year? I see you've never even touched a horse, and you dare to race with him?"

"Also, the horse the young general is riding is a thoroughbred. It cost twenty thousand dollars when saddled, making it one of the most expensive horses in the entire stable."

"You have no men, no horses, how can you compete with the general?"

Jiang Shaofeng sneered and shook his head. Although Su Bai was better than him in martial arts, riding a horse was another matter.

Tan Yuhan and others around were also sneering and looking at Su Bai with disdain.

"Yes, this gentleman is right." Mu Xiyu's female coach also suddenly spoke.

"This horse is our club's most expensive and most decorated horse. It has a noble and pure pedigree, and is worth $500,000. It hails from Coolmore Stud in Ireland and has won the London Section 9 Sprint Championship. It has a champion pedigree."

"And Mr. Jiang has indeed participated in amateur equestrian competitions. You have no chance of winning against him."

Seeing that the professional equestrian coach had spoken, everyone became even less optimistic about Chen Fan.

Mu Xiyu glanced at Su Bai without saying anything. Instead, she looked at Jiang Shaofeng and said, "Shaofeng, forget it! Don't argue with Su Bai."

Jiang Shaofeng shrugged and said, "I don't care. It all depends on what Young Master Su decides!"

Mu Xiyu's eyes fell on Su Bai, her face already filled with anger. If Xue Wanyun hadn't forced her to bring Su Bai out, how could she have brought Su Bai out? Now, she was almost regretting it to death. First, he gave her the Xiao Pei Yuan Dan, making her look bad in front of her classmates. Now, he was overestimating his own abilities and racing with Jiang Shaofeng. Couldn't he just behave himself for a while?

Completely unconcerned with the gazes of the crowd, Su Bai sneered and said, "Even if you are the gold medalist, it's nothing."

"What a big mouth." Jiang Shaofeng's face turned cold and he snorted. "If you really want to compete, that's fine, but there should be some prizes."

As he spoke, he took out a bunch of car keys and said lightly:

"Here are the keys to my Porsche Panamera. If you lose, it's yours. But if I win, you have to give me a car of the same price. How about that?"

Everyone around gasped. Not only Li Kaohsiung and others, but also some bystanders who came to ride horses showed a hint of interest.

Although the bet on a million-dollar luxury car was not big, it was definitely not small either. Moreover, it was among a group of young boys, so immediately a group of people gathered around to watch.
