Everyone was stunned.
When Chasing Wind leaped over the railing, the whole horse almost seemed to fly.
Its pale golden fur shone with a brilliant luster under the sunlight.
Such speed and height made everyone’s hearts leap to their throats. An average person would surely be thrown off the horse’s back by such a maneuver, and even the riding coaches couldn’t guarantee their own safety!
They could almost picture Keira being tossed off, crashing heavily into the ground, and then having her ribs crushed by the horse’s hooves…
That bloody scene made everyone unable to bear watching!
Some of the young ladies of the rich families exclaimed in shock, subconsciously covering their eyes.
Others who were braver watched intently, worrying about Keira…
But the anticipated gruesome scene didn’t occur. Keira’s entire body was flat against the horse, and she was pulling the reins with one hand. The moment Chasing Wind leaped and landed, she remained firmly seated on its back!
Her figure merged with that of Chasing Wind, making her look like an equestrian deity descending from the heavens!
“Holy shit! It actually worked!”
A rich young man who had been riding with Ellis exclaimed, unable to help himself. “That illegitimate daughter is kind of badass!”
The coach nearby breathed a sigh of relief but then frowned with worry. “This is just the first obstacle. The main thing is to see what happens next…” His words made the people who had just relaxed tense up again!
Yes, jumping the railing was only the first obstacle. The most important part was catching up to Ellis’s horse, and then figuring out how to soothe it and make it calm down!
Currently, the horse was in panic mode, and a non-professional horse trainer would never be able to calm it down quickly.
Everyone frowned again.
Ellis felt he was done for.
He had tried all methods he knew to calm the horse, but still, he couldn’t get it to stop. He could feel the horse’s violence and unease from under him.
The speed of the horse kept increasing, and his body was being jolted so violently that even clinging to it tightly did no good.
At this speed, if the horse went berserk…
There was almost no chance of survival!
Ellis frowned tightly, but he didn’t regret taking the illegitimate daughter seriously.
She relied on a good marriage to bully Mrs. Olsen and her daughter, and he would teach her a lesson next time to take uD for Mrs. Olsen!
He just felt some regret that he hadn’t lived long enough!
He hadn’t found a wife for his third uncle yet…
And he hadn’t managed to trick Lewis back home to marry his cousin…
What he regretted most was that he had come all the way to Oceanion and hadn’t even met that legendary horse trainer!
What a loss! His life had been too much of a loss.
As Ellis was thinking about this, a neigh suddenly came from behind him. With a slight turn of his head, he saw Keira, her face tense, rushing up beside him like a heroine.
Ellis immediately frowned and said, “What are you doing catching up?”
Keira’ frowned as she stared at his horse. “Hold on tight. Grab the reins…”
Ellis was immediately astonished, “You want to save me? Stop joking around.
With your skills, you’ll just be sending yourself to death too!”
Keira gave him a cold glance and didn’t speak, still observing the horse.
Horses wouldn’t just go mad for no reason, especially those from the Horton family. Apart from Chasing Wind, they had all been tamed and were very gentle by nature.
There must be something that agitated this horse. Keira observed to find the root cause…
Yet Ellis scoffed. ‘What? Are you afraid that if I die, I’ll bring trouble for you? Then carry some guilt and stop bullying Mrs. Olsen and her daughter in the future! I despise nothing more than seeing others smugly triumphant!”
Keira said, “Shut up!”
Ellis went on. “Right, can I ask you a favor?”
Keira still said nothing.
Ellis coughed. “My idol is that mysterious horse trainer from Oceanion. If you meet her, please tell her I admire her.”
Upon hearing this, Keira suddenly showed a strange look in her eyes.
She gave Ellis a long look.
This man wasn’t bad, actually. Even when he forced her into a horse race, he had remained by her side, shielding her. Otherwise, Keira wouldn’t have bothered playing the saint to save him.
“Your horse riding skills are actually pretty good. You ride so fast yet so steadily. It seems you’re not just a pretty face. Lewis does have some taste… But don’t chase after me. Don’t overestimate yourself. You’re risking your own life…”
Keira sighed, then sped up once more!
Chasing Wind caught up with the other horse…
Ellis panicked. “Hey, what are you doing? You’re not intending to die with me, are you? It looks like you’re preparing for a lovers’ suicide, which is entirely unnecessary…”
Before he could finish his sentence, his eyes widened in shock.
To his surprise, the woman in front of him suddenly stood up on horseback, hanging off the side of Chasing Wind like a circus performer, and with a burst of speed from Chasing Wind, she leaped up!
Then, Ellis felt a weight behind him. She was already sitting there, her arm reaching past him to grab the horse’s reins!
Ellis was shocked.
He was horrified. “Hey, illegitimate daughter, do you have a death wish?! Even if you jump over, it’s useless. You can’t calm this horse down… This is practically suicide! You…”
There was no saddle or stirrups in the position behind him, and with the horse moving so fast, Keira would immediately be thrown off!
He instinctively looked aside and heard the woman’s crisp, calm voice of disdain in his ears. “Shut up, you’re so annoying!”
Ellis was speechless.
Just as he was about to sav somethinz else, the woman’s voice came from
behind him again, “Sit tight and hold on!”
Before he could understand her intentions, Ellis felt his waist being embraced, and then the woman’s body soared, performing a side flip from behind him to his front.
Next, Keira grabbed the reins and took control of the horse.
She leaned down, gently stroking the horse’s head, then pulled back hard on the reins while simultaneously lying down to touch the horse’s belly…
“It’s no use. I’ve tried that all already! If you jumped over just to do this, it’s really unnecessary. Do you think you’re my idol?”
Having his reins taken away, Ellis could only grasp Keira’s slender shoulders. He had been on the horse the whole time and was acutely aware of the horse’s agitation and acceleration.
Since the horse began panicking, he had constantly tried these comforting gestures, but they were of no use.
Therefore, seeing Keira making the same moves as he did, he couldn’t help but frown and speak out.
But to his utter disbelief, almost immediately after he spoke, he felt the horse beneath him gradually calming down! !
