Allure of a Country Maiden-Chapter 250 - 248
Chapter 250: Chapter 248
Next up was Shangguan Xuanyi against Zhao Youwu and a few others. Result: A glamorous victory.
Procedure: Ahead of the game!
Audience: Full of joy.
Di Shaowei against Li Mingjun and a few young boys. Definitely: No suspense!
Audience: A victory without honor!
Procedure:
The biggest and toughest competitor on the field was Di Shaowei!
Di Shaowei stood in the first row, looking at the boys next to him, his face turning red.
Di Shaowei silently chanted: Team first! Sacrifice the individual for the collective!
But, god! He yearned to tie with Zhao Youwei, even if he lost, that would feel better than this secure victory!
For others, it’s honorable even in defeat. But for him, it’s a naked loss even in victory! His wise reputation is ruined!
What’s Shangguan Xuanhao’s happiness got to do with him?! Why did he have to listen?!
Indeed, imagination is beautiful, reality is too cruel.
Looks at these dwarves around him!
They accused him with their pure soul windows!
His noble image of helping the weak and loving the young is gone! And so is his reputation!
Girl, you can’t just set up Brother Di like this!
Li Mingfang: "Disgusting! Only he could do such bullying!"
The others outside the field collectively: "..."
Young Master Di is their hero! Is he teaching his younger brothers through the competition?
Yes, it must be like this!
The ladies started to find excuses for their hero.
In the end, Di Shao naturally won the competition, but he felt like he had lost hundreds of competitions afterwards.
Xiao’er patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Brother Di, sorry for your suffering. Sacrificing the individual for the collective. Truly noble!"
Di Shaowei gave her a smile uglier than crying!
He needs to find a corner to squat and heal! His innocent heart is deeply hurt!
"Brother, thank you. Your kindness I will not forget." Shangguan Xuanhao said this and then went to the stage.
Shangguan Xuanhao against Zhao Minhua and few pretty girls.
Result: huge power discrepancy!
Audience: Can’t even look straight!
Procedure:
Shangguan Xuanhao realized his situation was even more tragic when he was up.
He was still gloating just now, but karma came so fast.
Among the six people, all women, only him was a man.
In order to pursue this happiness across the sea, isn’t his sacrifice too great?
Is it too late to regret now?
Can he quit now?
He was set up by that girl, wasn’t he?!
What was that about strong ones facing weak ones first, then four strong ones against four weak ones, absolute victory, everything under control?!
He was really dizzy with the prospect of victory!
Such regret!
Indeed, someone was too shameless! To think such a cunning scheme.
How come he didn’t realize that he would end up competing with a group of women?!
Can you, the audience, not be so sharp-sighted? He’s completely exposed under your gaze!
He really didn’t want to, he unknowingly boarded the thief ship!
Damn it, if he wins against these women, he feels like he would lose face overseas! But if he doesn’t win, wouldn’t he lose the chance to go overseas and lose face?!
Forget it! Go ahead! Close one’s eyes and open them, this disastrous event will be over!
Xiao’er saw the look on Shangguan Xuanhao’s face as if he was going to face his doom, kindly reminded the weary Di Shaowei: "Brother Di, look at how the prince stands out."
Stand out?!
Haha!
A peace befalls the world!
Felt quite relaxed and comfortable!
Indeed, when you feel miserable yourself, just look at those who are more miserable than you, then you will feel that your misery is just so-so!
A magical self-healing!
"Brother Di, don’t you feel very happy now?"
"Yes, very happy." Di Shaowei unconsciously replied.
Then, coming back to her senses: Happy my ass, it was just less miserable!
The result of the competition, Shangguan Xuanhao, ended up in an unflattering situation.
Upon returning, he looked just like a lost dog.
Xiao’er patted him on the shoulder, "It was rough! Take care of your wounds."
"You’ve got to pull yourself together girl! If you lose, this will be the most miserable win of my life!" Shangguan Xuanhao implored pitifully.
"Relax! There’s only more miserable, not most miserable!" Xiao’er waved her hand and stepped into the field.
"What did that girl mean?"
Di Shaowei shrugged: "Probably that she’ll lose the race, didn’t she say that there’s no horse following orders now?"
He remembered the horse from the last race, it wouldn’t move at first.
Shangguan Xuanhao wailed: "Is the heaven trying to destroy me!"
...
Lady Rui’an against Li Mingfang and the others.
The audience perks up!
"Miss Li will surely win!"
"Miss Li is the best!"
"Defeat Lady Rui’an!"
...
The girls of Imperial Capital were very supportive.
Xiao’er: Am I so unpopular among the girls?
All the eligible men have become your catch, how could you be popular!
Alright! She should just continue being unpopular then!
"Lady Rui’an is invincible!"
"Lady Rui’an takes the lead!"
...
The guys in the Imperial Capital didn’t want to be outdone.
Boys prefer beautiful girls. Neutral-looking girls are unpopular! If they want to see masculine beauty, they can just look at themselves!
On the field
"This time I’ll go all out! Let’s determine the winner." Li Mingfang said to Xiao’er.
"Okay." Xiao’er nodded.
"If your horse is like before, don’t think about winning me!"
"Uh, it won’t." Xiao’er patted the horse’s head. If it dared, she would dissect its stomach, take out everything it ate, and eat it!
The white horse was so scared that its legs shook three times.
And they were off, both horses set off at the same time, leaving the others behind right from the start.
Xiao’er’s white horse and Li Mingfang’s Red Rabbit horse ran neck and neck for a while. The white horse then disdainfully glanced at the Red Rabbit and dashed forward, impeccably demonstrating the phrase ’as swift as a swallow’!
Li Mingfang whipped her horse hard, trying to catch up.
But the more she chased, the further it got.
How is this possible!
Her horse, although young, is Red Rabbit, the best among horses!
Her horse is Red Rabbit, the crème de la crème of horses!
But what she didn’t know was that Xiao’er’s horse was a mutant Red Rabbit, the cream of the crop amidst the cream!
Because its fur color had changed, no one could guess what kind of horse it was.
The reason the white horse looked listless was due to the old saying ’it’s lonely at the top.’ As the unbeatable horse champion, it lost its fighting spirit.
Seeing Xiao’er win so brilliantly. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Both Di Shaowei and Shangguan Xuanhao sprang back to life!
"Girl, you really make me proud." Shangguan Xuanhao said blissfully.
"I’m not like you, always embarrassing yourself." Xiao’er shook her hand, stopping just in time to feel pain from pulling on the horse’s reins.
Seeing this, Shangguan Xuanyi took her little hand, turned it over, frowned at her reddened palm, then extended his right hand towards Xiao Fuzi.
Xiao Fuzi immediately understood and passed him a jar of ointment.
"When did I ever embarrass myself?" Shangguan Xuanhao stomped his feet.
"You think you were showing off just then, not embarrassing yourself?" As the ointment was applied to the palm of her hand, it gave her a cooling sensation, bringing much relief.
Shangguan Xuanjun came over and said to Shangguan Xuanhao: "An unworthy victory!"
Then he walked away.
Li Mingfang towards Di Shaowei: "Shameless!"
Then she walked away.
Shangguan Xuanhao and Di Shaowei both jumped up: "There’s no such thing as excessive deceit in war, this is strategy, understand!"
After the horse race, the victorious individual and team could take away the horse they had chosen.
