Chapter 328 - 309: Who’s The Winner-II

Before the whistle was blown, Long Hua rode the horse with a wide smile on his lips and stared at the man on his right, "Good day isn't it, cousin Suzheng?" asked Long Hua and as their horse were standing near, Long Hua didn't have to scream or speak too loud for Suzheng to hear his words. Linyue and Jin Nu Yuan who was beside the two men didn't notice the exchange.

"It's been a long time since you race, could you still remember how to ride a horse? Frankly seeing you on the horse now surprises me." Jin Suzheng replied. As a person who had always been prideful, so was Suzheng's words to people who are younger than him but as he couldn't do the same to Li Jun Wei who is the head of the family, he uses the rest of his younger cousins to be the subject of his pride source,

Long Hua rubbed and massaged his shoulder with his hand while the other hand still holding the rein, "That is my worry, I think my body have grown stiff that would make it hard for me to race."

"It seems like last place would be yours taken then." sneered Jin Suzheng. Perhaps if his younger cousin would take the last place and Jin Nu Yuan take the place before him, he could save some faces and his pride.

Unexpectedly, Long Hua laughed and this attained Jin Suzheng's frown on him. When their eyes met, Long Hua grinned, "Last place is for losers, brother. Over my dead body would I want to be in the last place. Only people who are unable to race have to be in the last place. Even if I lose a limb, I would never take the last place." He spoke the word last place repeatedly, irking Jin Suzheng whose patient was short.

"Not everyone in the last place would be losers it could be there are reasons for their loss." Knowing that he could take the last place, Jin Suzheng wouldn't want to be called as loser whatever the reason was. Similar to the words Long Hua said, the man believe dying would be better than on the last place. 

Jin Suzheng clenched his hand, there would be no humiliation he thought. Once Nu Yuan won, she would work in the Imperial Hospital which could look good. Although Suzheng doesn't care about her sister's achievements, it could help with their family which the man thought wouldn't be too bad. In the future, if he is in need, he could reached out his hand to his younger sister.

Long Hua turned his head away, "Reasons make people lose not me though. Whatever the reason is I will win. There's never been the word lose in my entire life before. I wonder if there is one in Li family either. Brother Wei or Xiao Chen never lost at anything." As if realizing something, the young man turned at Suzheng, "But maybe Jin Family are thought differently."

On his cheeky words, Jin Suzheng's smile disappeared from his lips only frown and glare come at the man's face who couldn't believe he was being taunted by his younger cousin. 

At the same time when the whistle was blown, Long Hua whispered, "I will take the first place, please take the last, brother." Long Hua emphasizes on brother to then move his leg for the horse he rode to start galloping like the wind, faster than any others to take the first place.

A source of anger had came on Jin Suzheng after seeing the smug smile Long Hua did before leaving the starting line that he had kicked his horse to run instead of slowing down.

The two began to race side by side. Li Jun Wei with his skill, leisurely took the third place steadily while Linyue came after them and Jin Nu Yuan on the last.

Needlessly to say, Jin Nu Yuan's jaw fell from her mouth. She watched her brother galloping fast and her hand clenched. What was he doing?! shouted Jin Nu Yuan in her mind. Why was Jin Suzheng racing for the first place now?

It had been said and promised before the race start by Mrs. Jin that Jin Suzheng would take the last place in order for her to win. Now, Jin Suzheng was on the the second place, in a thread race against Long Hua as their horses were running near each other in an almost dangerous distance.

Jin Nu Yuan kicked her horse but this was the fastest speed she could run with her horse. The young woman was afraid if she riled her horse too much, the horse would get angry and instead throw her from the saddle which was dangerous. Linyue who was in front of her was focused in galloping wanting to walk faster but blocked by Li Jun Wei that she didn't notice the pleading look Jin Nu Yuan gave her. 

With nothing working in her favor, Jin Nu Yuan could only clenched on her rein, hoping to win in miracle but it never happened. Stress came to the young woman who by seconds felt the the dream which was right in front of her eyes taken away, ripped slowly in front of her. Jin Nu Yuan ground her teeth, the anger boiling where she couldn't do anything but watch how she would lose in the count of minutes.

Unlike the others who were fighting neck to neck, Li Lian on Li Jun Wei's horse felt the calmest she had been. Her eyes noticed the ground flying on the air as the horse dug and ran from the ground and she squinted. When the horse jump, Li Lian felt her body pulled up and crashed down on the ground without feeling any pain on her bottom.

She then saw Jin Suzheng and Long Hua racing for the first place while behind, Jin Nu Yuan was falling behind others. Did Li Jun Wei predicted this to happen? Li Lian knew how Li Jun Wei had never failed when it come to guess the event that would happen in the future but to see how it played out only made her admired him more.
