Chapter 218: Chapter 218: Scooping Her Waist and Lifting Her onto the Horseback

"This club is awesome for horse riding, we don’t have to stay in the arena? I think running horses in the arena is pretty boring."

"It’s more interesting to run on the grassland."

Wu Yingfan and Jiang Man were chatting casually.

Jiang Man looked up and saw a figure in white, like a prince on a white horse.

Nan Juefeng saw her too, but immediately turned away, heading in the opposite direction they were about to go.

"What’s going on with you two..." Wu Yingfan frowned, curious but hesitant.

Jiang Man puffed her cheeks, feeling a bit off, sour and astringent.

She actually liked Nan Juefeng quite a bit, whether as a friend, a brother, or even a lover, he would be a great choice.

If she had met him first, maybe she would have been moved by his 15 years of deep feelings and ended up with him.

But fate played tricks.

When she first married Lu Xingzhou, she could still say she’d leave whenever she wanted.

Now, having grown feelings over time with him and the Lu family, leaving wasn’t so easy anymore.

"Put away your little schemes." Jiang Man’s thoughts returned, and she glared at Wu Yingfan.

Wu Yingfan chuckled and scurried off: "I’ll go choose a horse at the stable first!"

Jiang Man walked leisurely behind, hands in her pockets.

She dressed casually today, with no need to change into riding clothes, just needing to wear a helmet.

The stables were a kilometer away from the banquet venue, and the two got on a rickshaw, arriving at their destination in no time.

There were about a dozen horses in the stables to choose from.

Wu Yingfan immediately took a liking to a Mongolian horse, plump and muscular, looking quite wild.

"That’s the one!" Wu Yingfan told the coachman.

"I’m going to change clothes." He informed Jiang Man, then strode toward the changing room nearby.

In front of the stables, Jiang Man stood with her hands behind her back, strolling in front of a group of horses.

She chose horses based on her impression, regardless of the breed.

However, after walking a circuit, she had looked over a dozen horses and hadn’t found one to her liking.

"I also want to ride a horse, shall we go take a look?"

Another rickshaw rolled by.

Unlike the previous one, which only carried Jiang Man and Wu Yingfan, this one was packed, with both men and women, laughing and talking.

"Is horse riding fun? I’m scared..."

"What’s there to be scared of? The coachman leads in front, and besides, there are helmets and sponge vests for protection."

"Girls who can’t ride horses raise your hand, we’ll split into two teams."

Four men and four women; two women and a man raised their hands.

"You’re a big man and you can’t ride a horse?"

"Sister, teach me?"

Jiang Man originally just wanted some quiet time to herself; hearing the clamor behind her, she furrowed her brows in irritation.

She shoved her hands into her casual pants and turned around, wanting to leave.

"Hey? Sister? Where’s your husband? Why do I see you alone every time?"

Jiang Rou and Jiang Man were among the group.

Jiang Man saw Nan Juefeng riding and wanted to get closer.

She had no interest in the squabbles between the two sisters.

Due to Jiang Man’s secret marriage with Lu Xingzhou, Jiang Man preferred to keep things simple, so she pretended not to be close with Jiang Man, just nodding at her symbolically.

Jiang Man took big strides to leave, but Jiang Rou sneered playfully, "Sister, come play with us!"

She had spent Liu Qinglong’s money to take equestrian and singing classes, catching up on all the things a lady should know.

Having learned horseback riding for over a month, she thought her skills were not bad and wanted to show off in front of others.

But to truly relish her moment in the spotlight, she needed someone to contrast with.

Jiang Man, the vile woman, is good at this and that, but how is her horsemanship?

"Get lost, do you even deserve to play with me?" Jiang Man coldly glanced at Jiang Rou with a disdainful and arrogant attitude.

Her reaction immediately drew verbal attacks from the young masters and mistresses.

"Rourou, why is your sister like this? So fierce, and utterly lacking manners!"

"That must be the rural sister you talked about, right? Indeed, she can’t present herself well."

Jiang Rou had always crafted an image of a true rich heiress outside, with a father whose wealth was vast and family business overseas.

At home, there was an older sister who had lived in the countryside since she was young and had only acknowledged her ancestry and returned to the family this year.

Jiang Man didn’t care how Jiang Rou slandered and denigrated her in public.

With a cold laugh, she sized up the shouting few, "Has your village just gotten internet? Not clear who I am?"

"You’re Rourou’s sister, why wouldn’t we know?"

"Don’t think just because you’re Rourou’s sister you can boss us around!"

"Ridiculous." Jiang Man pulled a smile, cold and aloof.

She detested talking to idiots, but alas, idiots always loved to jump around seeking attention.

"You dare to curse at me? Rourou, let me say the ugly words up front, today, being your sister won’t help her!"

The shouting came from a young mistress with a low ponytail dressed in Korean fashion, whose family raised pigs, named Zhang Doudou.

Zhang Doudou stepped forward, raised her hand to slap Jiang Man.

Jiang Man was stunned by this scene.

What kind of friends had Jiang Rou made, after all?

Jiang Man had become famous overnight at the V blog event as the ’grassroots’ fashion designer who broke through norms; didn’t they know about it?

Was it really that they don’t follow the news, or did they not have mobile phones?

Besides, today was a social gathering; weren’t they here to make friends?

——

Before Zhang Doudou’s hand could reach her, Jiang Man lifted her foot and kicked the person flying.

Zhang Doudou, caught off guard, landed buttocks first on the ground, sliding back several meters.

Her skirt, still in horse-riding attire, was torn by the coarse stones, leaving behind two trench-like marks on the ground.

"Ah...blood...help...murder..." Zhang Doudou screamed in horror and pain, gritting her teeth in agony.

Seeing this, the others were both shocked and scared.

The men all crowded in front of Jiang Man, encircling her completely.

With an innocent look, Jiang Rou hastily gestured, "This has nothing to do with me; my sister has always been against me, she often treats me violently at home too..."

"Hitting people? You think you’re so capable, huh? I never hit women, but it looks like I have to make an exception today!"

"Bullying Doudou is bullying us!"

Jiang Man twisted her neck, her head tilted, eyes full of murderous intent.

Without a word, she pocketed one hand and lifted one leg.

Due to her swift action, one of them couldn’t react in time.

Just like Zhang Doudou, he was kicked flying, landing sprawled out on the ground.

Seeing this, the remaining three men instantly chickened out and stepped back.

Jiang Man stood still, her eyes cold and frosty.

"If you’re not convinced, come at me, all of you!"

The three men looked at each other and eventually roared in unison.

"Ah ah ah... let’s go for it!"

As the three rushed at her, Jiang Man was ready to sweep their legs and knock all three of them down.

Just then, a white horse galloped over.

The man on the horse extended his hand, dividing the ’battlefield’, sidestepping to scoop Jiang Man’s waist, lifting her onto the horse...
