Chapter 546 A Bet
Yao Mengqing smiled smugly.
Who said that Qiao Xi had nothing to lose? If Qiao Xi was unable to tame this horse, then she would be embarrassing herself in public. Moreover, everyone had heard Qiao Xi ridicule her just now.
At that time, the news that Mrs. Gu was not good at riding but still mocked others would quickly spread.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Xi wanted to retreat and was hesitant. It's just that Miss Yao's riding skills are superb, but she still fell off. I'm a little afraid. It must be very painful to fall from a horse, right? Although everyone's offers are very attractive, my husband is rich and powerful. He doesn't lack those things. There's no need for me to risk injuring myself for these small benefits. It's really not worth it!
Miss Yao, you're right. I grew up in the countryside and never practiced riding. I've never ridden a horse before. If I can't tame it, I'll definitely fall harder than you.
Lu Yan's expression did not change as he thought about it for a moment. It seemed that Qiao Xi looked down on those people's offers.
When Yao Mengqing heard this, she was instantly excited. I'll give you a set of jade jewelry, Xi Xi. If you can tame this horse, my precious jade will belong to you!
Qiao Xi remained silent as she calculated how much these things were worth in her heart. However, these were not enough because the person she really wanted to scam had yet to give his offer!
Hence, she still looked troubled. Sigh, but
Miss Qiao, Lu Yan said slowly, Since everyone is generous, I can't just stand on the sidelines. If you really manage to tame this horse, I'm willing to give up five percent of the Lu family's shares. I won't go back on my word. What do you think?
Boom!!!
Everyone gasped.
Gu Yao widened his eyes and looked at Lu Yan in disbelief.
Give 5% of the Lu family's shares to Qiao Xi?
How could the Lu family agree to this? Although this 5% did not sound like much, 5% of the shares of a rich family like the Lu family was equivalent to a large sum of money. Moreover, too many people had shared the shares of the Lu family. Lu Yan probably did not take up too much of the shares. It was really unexpected that he was willing to give up the shares.
He was taking the joke too far!
If Qiao Xi really tamed this horse under the gazes of everyone, then he could not go back on his word.
Qiao Xi's eyes narrowed. She knew that Lu Yan would definitely not be so stupid. He probably had something else to say.
Sure enough, the next second, Lu Yan looked at Gu Zheng with a provocative gaze and said casually, However, the Lu family's shares are not something that can be used as a bet. Why not President Gu participate in the bet too? If Mrs. Gu can tame this horse, I'm willing to transfer 5% of the shares to her. If she can't tame it, President Gu, you'll have to transfer the shares of Gu Corporation to Miss Yao. What do you think?
Everyone was silent. The air seemed to be filled with electricity.
Qiao Xi smiled lightly. Young Master Lu, you must be joking. This deal seems very fair on the surface. If I can do it, you'll give me the Lu family's shares. But if I can't, Ah Zheng will have to give Yao Mengqing Gu Corporation's shares.
But are your Lu family's shares on the same par as Gu Corporation's? How can your 5% shares and Ah Zheng's 5% shares be on the same level?
I'm not stupid. I won't partake in a losing deal. Forgive me for not being able to participate in this bet.
There was dead silence.
Although it was not pleasant to hear, her words were very reasonable. If Mrs. Gu could tame this horse, it would be fine. However, if she could not, it would be a heavy loss!
Yao Mengqing's admirers immediately stood up to seek justice. Mrs. Gu, you can't do it but you still mocked Mengqing earlier. Now, you don't dare to prove yourself?
Qiao Xi raised her eyebrows. I'm just speaking the truth. Besides, my words before can't be considered mocking. I didn't expect Miss Yao to be so weak that I can't even say a few words about her. Moreover, a certain someone insisted on snatching my horse just now and said that her riding skills were superb. After she fell, it just proves that she doesn't have the ability. However, she was the one who wanted to snatch another person's horse. Isn't this called reaping what one sowed?
Yao Mengqing's expression was ugly. She forcefully suppressed her anger and said aggrievedly, It's just a bet. It's better not to let Ah Zheng participate. Xi Xi, since you want to place a bet, then why don't you use the business under your name?
Qiao Xi sneered.
She was indeed Gu Zheng's admirer. She still tried to protect Gu Zheng's best interests.
