Chapter 1460: Chapter 705: News Breaks Out

People often say that so-and-so and we are from two different worlds. Usually, when they say this, there is a bit of exaggeration, which in language textbooks is referred to as a hyperbolic rhetorical device.

But in reality, sometimes saying this isn’t an exaggeration at all.

For example, when rural people think of raising cattle, they imagine a simple cattle shed, and even if the ground is cleaned thoroughly, there would still be bits of cow dung in the corners. No matter how often they help clean the cattle, there’s no avoiding little creatures like gadflies and flies, and nearby, there must also be a spot to accumulate cow dung...

Yet in the eyes of some people who are not exposed to rural life, what is raising cattle? Blue skies, white clouds, endless green grass, cattle leisurely swaying their tails and munching on grass, occasionally a cow lifts its head towards the horizon and lets out a long, melodious moo, and lively young calves jumping and playing around...

It’s pretty much like when someone later posts on social media saying they took their dog on a plane, and many people wondered how it was possible to bring pets on a flight. That person casually said, well, I wouldn’t know about other planes because I fly on my own private jet.

Truly two different worlds.

Just like how now, Yan Fei describes the slaughtering of cattle so cruelly, but Miss Fan Qi opposite him, frowning slightly, blinked her big eyes and stared at him, asking, "Isn’t that horrible? You describe slaughtering cattle like some cold-blooded psychopath in the movies!"

The expression on her face was not one of horror, but full of curiosity.

Yan Fei simply didn’t know what to say, "Yeah, slaughtering cattle all day, hacking too much makes you kind of crazy, almost like a mental illness."

Fan Qi giggled, "Haha, you’re quite funny. But I really don’t believe someone who doesn’t ask about prices when shopping, would actually slaughter cattle themselves. Just now, you only mentioned asking Little Braids to help buy horses, you didn’t even ask about prices."

Not asking the price because a few horses aren’t expensive, okay? They aren’t imported from abroad; just horses from Mongolia. How expensive could they be? Besides, they’re all acquaintances, and this guy Wang Wei is pretty smooth, he’s not the type to scam people for money—shallow-eyed people simply can’t handle pure relationship-based horse trading businesses.

Seeing him at a loss for words, Fan Qi laughed again, "I didn’t mean anything, just that you’re different from others, just wanted to get to know you. You don’t have to push people away like that, do you? Are you friends with Chen Yingjun? Where are you from?"

Yan Fei simply ignored her now, shouting towards the race area, "Time has passed, aren’t we starting the race yet?"

Over there, a group of people had been discussing the end of the world and forgotten about the horse race. Hearing him shout, a few of them yelled, "Right right right, let’s start the race. Even if it’s the end of the world, it shouldn’t stop us from racing."

Someone else shouted, "If it’s the end of the world, why keep any money? Come on, I’m betting ten more..."

People really thought like this person, frantically pulling out money to place their bets—the future is unpredictable, better enjoy the present, right? Even if it’s just to get a thrill before dying, at least you enjoyed it.

The young man behind the table keeping track of the bets soon began to sweat with all the activity, and the few people involved in the races started feeling shaken seeing those stakes. Participants couldn’t bet, but achieving good ranks allowed them to take a share of the betting money directly.

Galloping horses under the control of their riders whizzed by, kicking up clouds of dust. Fan Qi stepped back and covered her mouth, asking Yan Fei, "Boss Yan, dare to make a bet with me? I bet the number two horse you bet on definitely won’t take first place. If you lose, how about treating me to dinner?"

Before Yan Fei could answer, a young man nearby interjected, "Miss Qi, betting with him is pointless! Win or lose, I’ll treat you to dinner, how about that?"

Fan Qi glanced over there, didn’t respond, and continued staring at Yan Fei, "What do you say, bet or not? Hurry, the results are almost in!"

Yan Fei shook his head, "No bet, I’m definitely winning."

"Kid, I bet ten with you, you’ll lose soon, dare to play?" That young man, ignored by Fan Qi, couldn’t help but challenge Yan Fei.

Seeing the group of people all looking at him, Yan Fei smiled without a word. The girl in front was just a troublemaker; from the moment she stood over, several people were watching, and initially no one cared much when he behaved poorly. Now seeing how ’hot’ their chat seemed, those people probably couldn’t hold back anymore.

There’s no point in arguing with such ants, I’m almost turning into a big devil myself, better to keep it lowkey!

The attitude he showed completely made the young man angry. Being ignored continuously, especially in such an occurrence,

would irritate anyone.

The young man stomped towards him aggressively, "I’m talking to you, kid, dare to bet?"

Yan Fei gestured towards the distance, "I’ve won."

A horse race doesn’t last long, in such a small place, no matter how exciting, it’s just a matter of minutes.

"You..." the young man was frustrated. "I bet on the next race!"

"Brother Fei, Brother Fei, we won!" Chen Yingsong came running over at the crucial moment, shouting with excitement, "Let’s go, let’s go, quit while we’re ahead. We won a round, let’s leave right away!"
