After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

"Qin Wanqing, are you sure this guy isn't joking?"

After the initial shock, Zhu Daji couldn't help but look at Qin Wanqing with a strange expression.

It's not unusual for someone to cram at the last minute; she did this every time she was in college, right before final exams.

But in equestrian competitions, where the competition has already started, someone is still learning the rules. She has never seen or even heard of such a thing before.

What's most infuriating is that before the competition started, the racecourse's referee specifically asked both competitors if they were ready to begin.

Ye Bai nodded without any hesitation, looking completely indifferent.

At the time, Zhu Daji thought that this adopted son of the Ye family was really hiding his true abilities, as he was so familiar with equestrianism, a sport that was not very popular.

To my surprise, this guy was completely unfamiliar with nothing!

Zhu Daji strongly suspects that Ye Bai didn't understand what the referee was saying at all.

"Maybe he really wants to become the son-in-law of the Zhu family, and he deliberately lost the game."

Qin Wanqing snorted coldly, feeling like she wanted to strangle Ye Bai.

She knew she absolutely couldn't trust this guy easily, because you never knew what kind of trouble he might cause next.

In terms of unreliability, Qin Wanqing felt that if Ye Bai dared to call himself second, probably no one could be number one.

To only learn the rules of a competition during the competition itself—could there be anything more absurd?

If Zhao Wuyai were also a novice, it would be fine, but he is a top amateur player comparable to a professional player!

By the time Ye Bai has finished getting familiar with the place, the others will probably be close to the finish line.

Even if you were riding the legendary Red Hare, you still couldn't catch up.

Moreover, to ensure fairness, the two horses are almost identical in strength and even temperament, making it impossible for one to be a superior horse and the other an inferior one.

"Now that you've said that, I don't want it anymore!"

Zhu Daji pursed her lips, suddenly losing interest.

Zhao Wuyai won against Ye Bai. Although in terms of this bet, it was equivalent to her winning against Qin Wanqing, it wasn't a victory she personally won, so there wasn't much of a sense of satisfaction, far less than when she won the second project.

The reason she wanted to use Ye Bai as a bet was simply to provoke Qin Wanqing by taking her things.

Now that we've discovered Ye Bai is such an unreliable guy, what good is it to steal him?

In terms of fickleness and ruthlessness, Zhu Daji clearly far surpasses Qin Wanqing.

"Miss, Miss, look! The young master is moving..."

At this moment, Shen Lu suddenly started shouting and jumping around excitedly, as if she had finally seen her son-in-law, who had been in a vegetative state for many years, react.

Qin Wanqing's spirits lifted upon hearing this. Although Zhao Wuyai was already more than a hundred meters ahead, it was not a truly hopeless situation for an obstacle course that stretched for thousands of meters.

If Ye Bai can catch up quickly and narrow the gap, there might still be a chance.

But just as Qin Wanqing had this thought, Ye Bai's next move stunned her into a state of shock.

"...What is this idiot trying to do now??"

At this moment, Qin Wanqing was extremely determined. If she hadn't been so resolute, she might have gone crazy on the spot.

Ye Bai suddenly leaned down and leaned close to the horse's ear, seemingly saying something.

While talking, he kept stroking the horse's body, as if he were petting a cat...

"Does he think he's some kind of animal trainer from a novel? That he can communicate with horses?"

Zhu Daji's rosy lips opened into an "O" shape, her beautiful peach blossom eyes widened and rounded, and her delicate and charming face was filled with a strange expression.

She now strongly suspects that Ye Bai isn't here to participate in an equestrian competition, but rather to perform in a circus!

Many animals do indeed possess human-like qualities, but this is only true when the two parties have spent a considerable amount of time together and are relatively familiar with each other.

But this is Ye Bai's first time at this horse farm, and the first time he has met this horse. Does he think he can win it over with just a few words?

Are you kidding me, playing the "love at first sight" game?

Zhu Daji had always felt that the adopted son of the Ye family was not quite right in the head, but she hadn't paid much attention to it.

But today, she discovered that rumors are often not entirely unfounded.

Judging from Ye Bai's performance today, there was nothing normal about him.

How could Qin Wanqing, who is always proud and arrogant, have fallen for such a thing?

It's one thing that she wasn't immediately rejected after being sent to the Ye family as a substitute bride, but it's quite unusual that Qin Wanqing hasn't divorced him after all this time.

...Could it be that Qin Wanqing had deliberately planned this all along, wanting me to steal it so she could bring trouble to the Zhu family?

If that's true, it's absolutely terrifying!

Upon realizing this, Zhu Daji suddenly felt a jolt and realized she no longer wanted Zhao Wuyai to win.

Even if she wins, she absolutely cannot accept Ye Bai, and she's willing to cheat for it!

That woman Qin Wanqing is so insidious!

Zhu Daji cursed inwardly as she turned to look at Qin Wanqing, only to find that the other woman's expression was also somewhat strange.

His eyes were vacant and numb, staring at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

He looks... like he's lost all will to live?

Qin Wanqing was of course unaware of the various dramas unfolding in Zhu Daji's mind, but she was truly exhausted.

There was no way around it; even with Qin Wanqing's strong nerves, being with Ye Bai, who never played by the rules, sometimes made it impossible for her to cope.

She even had an urge to call Shen Lu over and turn around and leave.

Ye Bai's actions have made her begin to understand what the legendary "social death" really feels like.

Especially the way everyone looked at Ye Bai and then turned to look at her, it was as if they were asking, "Queen Qin, you actually found such a silly man as your husband? Are you deliberately trying to make us laugh?"

"Wow, the son-in-law is running! He's so fast!"

Just as everyone was completely bewildered by Ye Bai's actions, a cheer suddenly rang out, as Shen Lu excitedly jumped up and down again.

Qin Wanqing came to her senses and was about to scold the little girl for always making such a fuss, but when her gaze fell on the field, her delicate body trembled violently and her whole body stiffened.

Zhu Daji and the others were no better off; they all stared wide-eyed, dumbfounded, with expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

The slow-moving black horse, after Ye Bai grabbed its ear and "talked to it" for a while, suddenly became incredibly fast, as if it had been injected with adrenaline.

Like a black lightning bolt, it not only easily overcame several obstacles, but was also only about ten meters away from Zhao Wuyai's white horse!

After a few breaths, the distance between the two was less than three meters!

As gasps of surprise began to rise from the crowd, the two horses were just a step away from running side by side!

In just a short while, the advantage that Zhao Wuyai had built up had vanished!
