Despite pulling the white horse to a stop, Bai Yongquan was still drenched in cold sweat.

Nie Jiaqi hugged her brother and started crying, looking utterly frightened. The horse trainer who had followed behind was also terrified. This woman is such a damn fool. If you can’t ride a horse, why the hell are you blindly hitting the horse’s belly? He was almost trampled on the head by the white horse!

Despite these thoughts, he was also very afraid. He knew who Bai Yongquan was, and that these young people were the ones Bai Yongquan had to curry favor with, clearly indicating they were from an extraordinary background.

People like this have a common flaw: the fault is never theirs.

As expected...

After seeking enough comfort, Nie Jiaqi lifted her head and pointed at the horse trainer, saying, "Brother, this person is so unprofessional. How could someone leading a horse still trip over one? How did you find such a person to lead my horse? They almost got me killed!"

With her words, she directly placed the blame on the horse trainer, the stable, and Bai Yongquan.

Bai Yongquan noticed the young man’s gloomy expression and knew it wasn’t good, so he stepped forward and said, "I’m sorry Miss Nie was frightened. I’ll make sure the stable trains this horse trainer properly. And there will be a small gift to apologize to Miss Nie for the fright."

The "small gift" he mentioned certainly wasn’t small; it was just a humble way to say it.

However...

"A small gift? You think a small gift can appease me? Are you looking down on me!" Nie Jiaqi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Bai Yongquan.

Bai Yongquan: "..." Damn, dealing with someone who has no social experience is really tough.

Even without social experience, little sister, think with your head, who am I, Bai Yongquan, and who are you? Would I really use a ’small’ gift to apologize?

"Alright, Jiaqi, are you hurt?" the young man looked at the girl.

Bai Yongquan shot a peculiar glance at the young man. Everyone could see if she was hurt, why bother asking?

Nie Jiaqi pursed her lips in grievance, and seeing the horse trainer behind frown, anger welled up inside her. She took a step back and pointed at the horse trainer. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"As for gifts, they don’t matter to me, but I will not forgive this person!"

Bai Yongquan sighed internally; ultimately, the horse trainer of the stable was implicated. He promptly said, "I will make him apologize to Miss Nie!"

Nie Jiaqi snorted, "Frightening me, and an apology is enough?"

Bai Yongquan asked, "How can Miss Nie be satisfied?"

The horse trainer stood behind, tall and stout, with defiance in his eyes. Apologize? Ridiculous! If it meant losing this job, he’d just find another one.

Pity it was a high-paying job.

Nie Jiaqi looked coldly at the defiant face of the horse trainer. The most effective way to deal with such a person... heh.

"This person should not be hired by any stable in the future! Not only that, but every member of his family must also lose their jobs!" Nie Jiaqi said with arrogance, raising her chin slightly. Her pretty face failed to display any beauty.

Bai Yongquan barely noticeably furrowed his brows. The blame wasn’t actually on this horse trainer; he thought dismissal was already an extreme punishment, but this woman...

"Listen to Jiaqi."

Bai Yongquan hadn’t had a chance to say more when he heard the young man chuckle and speak to Nie Jiaqi.

He knew that if the young man spoke, things would have no chance of being redeemed. He sighed with a pang of regret, as it was he who had the horse trainer lead the horse for Nie Jiaqi.

The horse trainer was also left stunned. He, of course, did not care for himself, but was it too much if even his family lost their jobs? How great is power?

"Don’t go too far!" the horse trainer said through clenched teeth.

Nie Jiaqi shook her head slightly, looking smug, "How about it? Beg me on your knees, and I’ll spare your family. Otherwise, no one will dare hire you, and you can all starve to death!"

The horse trainer’s face turned red with anger, yet there was nothing he could do. He had a moment where he considered bowing his head, but ultimately, his pride was too strong, and he didn’t succumb.

"Peh! Scumbag!"

The horse trainer cursed, threw down the reins, and walked away.

Nie Jiaqi was extremely angry, what a vulgar person!

"Brother, you must make him really suffer!" Nie Jiaqi pouted at the young man, as if she would not rest until she got her way.

The young man, shaken by her, could only concede, "Alright, alright, I promise."

Only then did Nie Jiaqi smile.

Bai Yongquan lowered his eyes slightly, not showing it on his face, but inside he was extremely displeased. Whoever marries such a woman has hit a streak of bad luck for eight lifetimes!

This was probably the most spoiled girl he had ever met. Being her brother was fine; after all, it would be someone else’s family she’d be trouble for in the future, but being her man was out of the question.

However, there was nothing that could be done, given she was born into such a family. The allure of power was indeed strong, and no wonder it was so eagerly sought after. Thinking this, Bai Yongquan’s expression returned to normal.

As the son of an official family, he knew what things could be brushed off and which weighed heavier!

The horse trainer left without even collecting his last month’s wages. Nie Jiaqi was even prouder, just about to say some playful words to her brother when she noticed him turning his head, looking at someone unknown.

Following his gaze, she saw three small children, two of them probably only five or six years old. Why was her brother looking at them?

Initially, the young man hadn’t noticed these three children, but after the horse trainer left and the situation ended, he had turned to see one of the children.

This child’s spirit... why did it feel so strange?

It was indeed full, yet seemed unstable?

It was his first time encountering someone with an unstable spirit.

"Come here." The young man called out to Jing Changle.

Jing Changle stood still, just watching him.

The young man shook his head at this. A kid so young, yet so stubborn, he knew the kid understood.

"Didn’t you hear me?" Nie Jiaqi snapped, surprised someone dared not listen to her brother.

Jing Changle lazily leaned against the pillar behind him, "Say it, I can hear you."

Nie Jiaqi was simply in disbelief, where did this wild kid come from!

Bai Yongquan glanced at Hao Rong, who stood there innocently. How could they be blamed, they were about to leave when it was Brother Quan’s people who didn’t let them go.

"Mr. Nie, is there something wrong with this person?" Bai Yongquan asked.

He wanted to avoid any further issues.

"Yes, Brother Kaihuan, what’s wrong with this wild boy?" Nie Jiaqi was upset because Jing Changle had countered her before, and she directly called him a wild boy.

The young man Nie Kaihuan did not speak, only eyeing Jing Changle, puzzled. Hmm, it seems stable now, the spirit is good; should he consider taking him back for observation?
