Chapter 131
Lu Qi and a few others also returned from the race, each one tired and sweaty, but with faces and eyes full of excitement, clearly enjoying the trip.
“Mr Lu, water.” Chen Xingnuo picked up two bottles of water and threw one to Lu Qi.
Lu Qi took it, “Thanks.”
“What about me?” Cheng Huai saw that she only gave it to Lu Qi and not herself, and was instantly upset, “You’re the one I brought, how come you only gave it to him?”
Chen Xingnuo rolled her eyes, “Here, take it!”
She took the bottle of water again and threw it over.
Only then did Cheng Huai smile in satisfaction, unscrewing the cap and taking a few sips, then pouring the rest of the water all over her head and face, “Cool!”
“It’s quite refreshing.” Lu Qi shook the water out of his hair and said after him.
On the other side, Gu Manyin also handed a bottle of water to Fu Jingting, “Jingting, have some water.”
“Okay.” Fu Jingting took it and unscrewed it, but did not drink it, but handed it back to her, “You drink it.”
When Gu Manyin saw how considerate he was, her face broke into a smile, “Thank you Jingting.”
Fu Jingting said no, bent down and took another bottle of water before drinking it.
Just after a few sips, a sudden panicked shout came.
The crowd stopped talking at once.
Lu Qi looked towards the distance where the sound came from and saw that Rongshu’s horse was rushing like a madman.
Even though she was holding on to the reins, if she continued like this, she would be thrown off the horse in no time.
“Baby!” Lu Qi hurriedly threw the water in his hand and ran towards his own horse, ready to save her.
As a result, he had just mounted his horse when he saw a figure already preceding him and riding past.
It was Fu Jingting!
Lu Qi frowned, then kicked his horse’s belly and also chased after him.
Only Gu Manyin and Cheng Huai were left in the spot.
Chen Xingnuo had just gone to the washroom, and Fu Jinglin was still on the other stable and hadn’t come over.
Cheng Huai looked at Gu Manyin’s ugly face and smiled, “Aiyaya, Jing Ting has gone to save Rong Shu, are you uncomfortable in your heart?”
Gu Manyin naturally knew that he was deliberately making fun of her, so she squeezed the water bottle tighter, but her face was forced to smile as she said, “Of course not, Miss Rong had an accident, so it’s normal for Jing Ting to save her, I’m not uncomfortable.”
“Really, but your movements tell me that you are lying.” Cheng Huai looked at the water bottle that was deformed by her pinching, the smile on his face grew worse and worse.
Gu Manyin’s expression stiffened for a moment and she immediately let go of the water bottle and stopped talking.
Cheng Huai laughed out loud, “Miss Gu is still as inconsistent as ever, such a you can actually make Jing Ting move for you, Jing Ting is really blind, but now it seems that Jing Ting’s blindness seems to be slowly getting better.”
He rested his cheeks and looked at Fu Jingting who had successfully saved Rongshu, “Just now when Rongshu had an accident, the tension on Jingting’s face was not fake, this shows that Jingting does not have Rongshu in his heart either, he just hasn’t discovered it himself yet, if he does one day, Miss Gu you say ……”
“That’s enough, don’t say any more!” Gu Manyin pinched her palms and stood up, interrupting him in a cold voice.
Cheng Huai raised his eyebrows, “What, angry?”
Gu Manyin looked at him with dark eyes, “Mr. Cheng, I know I offended your Cheng family last time because of my father’s matter, but you don’t need to come here to provoke the relationship between me and Jingting, right? Aren’t you afraid that Jing Ting won’t be happy if you do this?”
“Why are you afraid?” Cheng Huai smiled back “Jing Ting is my friend, I think you are not suitable for Jing Ting and want Jing Ting to leave you, I am doing this for his good, how could he be unhappy.”
“You ……” Gu Manyin’s face turned red and white with anger.
Cheng Huai had a breeze.
Originally, he didn’t want to be so impolite to provoke her and Fu Jingting, after all, what she and Fu Jingting did was not in his way.
But who let the Gu family be immoral and almost ruin the Cheng family’s years of planning, so naturally he wouldn’t let her get away with it, no way, who let him be so careful.
On the other hand, on the horse farm.
Fu Jingting held Rong Shu in his arms.
Rongshu’s body was shivering, obviously the incident just now had not yet calmed her down.
Sensing her inner fear, Fu Jingting gently patted her back and said in a soft, soothing voice, “It’s okay, don’t be afraid.”
Rongshu did not respond, but the trembling of her body had gradually decreased.
At this time, Lu Qi came over and looked at the two of them hugging each other, his eyes darkened for a moment, “Mr. Fu, thank you for saving my baby.”
Although he very much did not want to say this thanks.
But who let it be a fact that Fu Jingting saved Baby, and who let it be a fact that he was slower than Fu Jingting.
“It’s nothing.” Fu Jingting glanced at Lu Qi and faintly returned a sentence.
Lu Qi rolled over and dismounted, “In that case, then please let go of Baby, don’t forget, she is my girlfriend, it doesn’t seem good for you to keep holding her like this, and your fiancee is still watching.”
Hearing these words, Fu Jingting’s hand patting Rong Shu’s back fiercely paused, only then did he realise that the woman in his arms was already his ex-wife, someone else’s girlfriend.
It was indeed inappropriate for him to hold her like this.
Thinking of this, Fu Jingting turned his head towards the resting area again and just happened to meet Gu Manyin’s reddened and moist eyes.
Fu Jingting’s thin lips pursed and finally let go of Rong Shu.
The moment he let go, Lu Qi took Rong Shu’s hand and held her in his arms, asking nervously, “Baby, is everything okay?”
Rongshu shook her head in shock, her voice trembling, “Yes.”
The moment she almost fell off the horse, Fu Jingting appeared.
So she wasn’t injured.
But Lu Qi was still a little uneasy and looked her up and down and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with her, then he breathed a sigh of relief, “It’s good that it’s fine, it’s good that it’s fine, just now it scared me to death, it was fine, why did this horse suddenly go crazy?”
As soon as these words came out, Fu Jingting looked towards the horse that had quieted down in the distance, his eyes were obscure and uncertain.
“I don’t know either.” Rongshu shook her head and returned.
She had been riding well when the horse suddenly picked up speed.
She was so scared that her mind went blank, how could she be in the mood to think about the cause?
“It’s alright, I’ll look into this matter, honey, go back to your room and rest for a while, I can see that your legs are still shaking.” Lu Qi looked at Rongshu’s slightly trembling calves and said.
Rongshu nodded her head and agreed.
Lu Qi half-embraced her and walked towards the villa.
Fu Jingting looked at the two’s backs, his thin lips pursed into a straight line.
Half an hour later, Lu Qi came down from upstairs.
All five of Fu Jingting’s men had returned from the horse farm and were sitting in the living room.
Fu Jinglin was the first to see Lu Qi coming down and immediately got up, “Hey, I heard that something happened to Sister Rongshu, how is she?”
Gu Manyin looked at the concern and tension on Fu Jinglin’s face, her eyelids dropping to cover the obscurity in her eyes.
It was clear that before, Fu Jinglin still hated Rong Shu.
Why did Fu Jinglin stop hating Rong Shu as soon as she divorced Jingting, and still cared so much about Rong Shu, what kind of drug did Rong Shu give Fu Jinglin?
“Yes Mr. Lu, is Mr. Rong Shu alright?” Chen Xingnuo also asked.
She was still in the washroom when Rongshu had her accident, and only after she came back did she hear Cheng Huai say that Rongshu’s horse had gone crazy and almost dropped Rongshu.
Lu Qi ignored Fu Jinglin and only looked at Chen Xingnuo and said, “Don’t worry, the baby is fine, she’s just in shock and has fallen asleep.”
“That’s great.” Chen Xingnuo breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Fu Jinglin was not happy with Lu Qi’s ignorance, he heard that Rongshu was not seriously hurt, so he did not bother to take it personally.
Chapter 132
Suddenly, Lu Qi’s face went cold, his gaze swept over the five people’s faces before finally settling on Gu Manyin’s face, “Baby’s horse, is the most docile mare that I asked the stable keeper and specially selected, by definition, it is impossible for it to suddenly go crazy, so I think that there must be some unseemly reason in this.”
“Mr. Lu, you mean that someone has done something to Mr. Rong’s horse?” Chen Xingnuo quickly reacted and asked with wide eyes.
“It’s not me.” Fu Jinglin was afraid of being suspected and was the first to shake his head and wave his hand in denial.
Cheng Huai calmly sipped his tea, “It wasn’t me either.”
“Even more so, it’s not me.” Chen Xingnuo also raised his hand.
Lu Qi looked at the last two, “That only leaves Mr. Fu and Miss Gu, but Mr. Fu saved Baby, so he must not be the one who did it either, after all, no one is idle enough to do it and save someone, so ……”
“So you suspect it was me?” Gu Mangyin squeezed her palms and looked like she was about to cry with anger.
Lu Qi clapped his hands, “It seems that you are quite self-aware, ah, yes, I do suspect you, within the people present, you are also the only one most likely to harm Baby, because it has been more than once.”
“I didn’t!” Gu Manyin’s tears flowed down her face as she took Fu Jingting’s hand, “Jingting, you believe me, I really didn’t.”
“I believe you.” Fu Jingting squeezed her hand, gesturing for her to calm down first.
Once Gu Manyin heard that he believed her, she nodded her head repeatedly and calmed down.
Lu Qi rolled his eyes, “Of course you believe her, she kills and sets fire to people, cry and you believe her, after all, you spoil her without limits, who is present, who doesn’t know.”
Chen Xingnuo and Cheng Huai nodded their heads.
Even Fu Jinglin couldn’t refute against his heart and nodded along.
Big brother was indeed like that sometimes.
“I believe Mangyin, not because I spoil her, but because she has a complete alibi.” Fu Jingting saw that several people were not on his side, and did not get angry, looked at Lu Qi and said in a deep voice “Mangyin has never touched Rongshu’s horse from the beginning to the end, so tell me, how did she do it?”
At first, he also wondered if Mangyin’s second personality had done it.
But later on, he carefully analyzed it and came up with the result that it was not Mangyin’s second personality that did it, and Mangyin’s second personality had not appeared either.
Lu Qi was stunned, and suddenly reacted that this was really the case.
Gu Manyin was not there when the horses were chosen, and it was impossible to give the horses a hand in advance, because there were so many horses in the stables, how could Gu Manyin know what horse Baby would choose, it was not like she had foreknowledge.
Unless Gu Manyin had put her hands on all the horses in advance, but then, their horses should have gone crazy too, but nothing happened to them, could it be, it was really an accident?
“Why don’t we invite the manager of the stables over and ask them, they did an examination on the horses and the results should be out too.” Cheng Huai suggested.
Fu Jingting nodded his head, “Then invite them over.”
Soon, the stables manager came over.
Lu Qi hurriedly asked what was wrong with Rongshu’s horse.
The man from the stables replied, “Miss Rong’s horse is in spring.”
“What?” The crowd was stunned.
Only Gu Manyin lowered her head, covering the corners of her mouth that were slightly curled.
“You said spring?” Lu Qi had a strange look on his face, “But this isn’t the season for animals to have spring.”
Cheng Huai and Chen Xingnuo, as well as Fu Jinglin, also looked at the caretaker.
The caretaker shook his head, “Just because the season has pa*sed doesn’t mean that the animals won’t go into spring, sometimes for some other reasons, the animals will be stimulated to go into spring.”
Fu Jingting asked in a deep voice, “Then what was the reason for Rongshu’s horse to go into spring?”
The manager thought for a moment and said, “It’s not clear yet, it could be that the horse smelled something or ate something, the exact cause is still unclear, but it’s more or less the same.”
“It’s not possible to have eaten anything, the horse didn’t eat anything when it was brought out.” Chen Xingnuo said.
She had been there when Rongshu had chosen the horse and had seen it clearly.
“So it just smells like something?” Lu Qi rubbed his chin and spoke.
Cheng Huai suddenly smiled, “It couldn’t be the perfume on Rong Shu’s body, could it?”
“Er ……” The corners of the crowd’s mouth twitched.
But there was no denying it, it was still possible.
“So what happened to Chief Rong this time was just an accident.” Chen Xingnuo spread his hands.
Even if Lu Qi was unwilling to accept this fact in his heart, he could only accept it and turned around to go upstairs.
“Wait a minute.” Fu Jingting waved his hand to let the administrator go down first, and then called out to Lu Qi.
Lu Qi stopped in his tracks, “Is there anything else?”
Cheng Huai Chen Xingnuo and Fu Jinglin also looked at Fu Jingting.
Even Gu Manyin.
Fu Jingting took her hand, “Now that things are clear, you just wronged Mangyin, shouldn’t you apologise?”
Lu Qi narrowed his eyes and smiled, “Apologize? You want me to apologize to her?”
He pointed at Gu Manyin.
Fu Jingting stared at him, “You don’t want to apologise?”
“I admit that I have wronged her this time, but what she did to Baby before was not wrongful, right? How many times has she apologized to her? You’re the one who apologized for her.”
Lu Qi looked at Fu Jingting mockingly, “And she, the one who hurt baby, is hiding behind your back, not even making amends, did I say anything about that? Did I force her to come out and apologize to Baby, like you are doing now, no, so who are you to ask me?”
Fu Jingting’s face was dark and not very nice.
Gu Manyin even lowered her head in embarra*sment.
Cheng Huai, on the other hand, propped his head up and watched them with a show, even pulling Chen Xingnuo to watch with him.
Only Fu Jinglin, the ditz, blinked and asked, “Brother, what did Sister Mangyin do to Sister Rongshu that made you go and apologise to Sister Rongshu?”
When Gu Manyin heard this, a hint of annoyance flashed across her eyes.
This Fu Jinglin, where is the pot?
Was it deliberate?
“Shut up.” Fu Jingting also scolded with a frown.
Fu Jinglin was a little aggrieved.
He had only asked what he wanted to know, and he was told to shut up.
Why should he?
Seeing Fu Jinglin’s displeasure, Lu Qi’s eyes rolled up and looped his arms, “Hey kid, you want to know, I’ll tell you.”
“Sure.” Fu Jinglin’s eyes lit up.
“Jingting ……” Gu Mangyin anxiously pulled Fu Jingting’s arm, trying to get Fu Jingting to stop it.
But it was already too late, Lu Qi had already spoken, “Kid, this sister-in-law-to-be of yours, is a standard snake beauty, ah, she started off by using public opinion to falsely accuse Baby of hitting her with her car six years ago, fortunately our baby got the surveillance from back then, otherwise it wouldn’t have cleared up.”
“In addition to that, at the resort, your sister-in-law-to-be also used body wash to engineer Baby to fall and bump her head, and two days ago she even pushed Baby down the stairs and tried to kill her, how about that, now you know what your sister-in-law-to-be has done to Baby?” Lu Qi looked at the already stunned Fu Jinglin with satisfaction.
Apart from Fu Jinglin, Cheng Huai and Chen Xingnuo were also stunned.
Because of all this, they really didn’t know.
“Brother, is all this true, that Sister Mangyin really did this to Sister Rongshu?” Fu Jinglin clenched his fist and looked at Fu Jingting with a complicated expression.
During this period of time, his mind was all on basketball, and he really didn’t know that these things had happened to Sister Rongshu.
Fu Jingting’s face was gloomy and he did not say anything.
Gu Manyin held onto his arm tightly and didn’t say anything either.
Seeing this scene, what else did Fu Jinglin not know, what Lu Qi said, was true.
During this period of time, he had understood that Sister Mangyin was not as wonderful as he had thought at first.
But he did not expect that she was even worse than he had imagined, so vicious that she had done these things to Sister Rongshu.
