A Girl Who Wants to Be a Beneficial Person to Society

Chapter 313: The Gamble



Chapter 313

It looks good!

The first feeling conveyed from the screen.

It is said that girls like little animals, BMWs, Land Rovers, Jaguars and so on...

It is really aesthetically pleasing when a BMW is placed next to a little girl.

Especially one like Ji Gu, with a magnificent, tall, mighty and smooth figure, the whole feeling is very powerful and explosive.

The screen displays introductions of the players and horses.

It mainly introduces the pedigree and racing history of the horses, as well as their original price.

The players are also introduced with their racing history.

Su Xiaoqi, freshman, seventeen years old, with zero racing history.

Although the picture is beautiful, the content of the introduction is ordinary. She is a complete newcomer. Other players can also see the big screen. There are also screens in the backstage area. Seeing the content of the introduction, they smiled.

They all felt that she was probably some rich family's little girl who wanted to come and play.

After all, a horse that can participate in the race is expensive. Ji Gu's price is shown as 1.2 million.

That's the price in RMB, which is still expensive.

It's not enough to just spend over a million to buy it. Keeping such a racehorse is even more expensive than the horse itself.

Ji Gu in the screen looks very beautiful, obviously very well fed.

In contrast, the player is really too small, although pleasing to the eye, but really like a child. She still has to go to school and do homework. It is said that children in Hua Country have a lot of homework.

These thoughts do not affect the beauty of the picture, nor the good looks of the little girl.

Other players did not care at all, and excluded Xiaoqi from competitors directly.

When Liu Shaowei saw the big screen, he felt complicated feelings that were hard to describe. He was definitely surprised. He thought he had left his peers far behind when he came to Capital City, especially his former classmates.

He was very surprised when he saw Su Xiaoqi in the hotel. He thought Su Xiaoqi was shameless, playing with old men. Surely, she was actually a bit slutty. But he was with Li Maomao in a proper relationship. He was still justified and even looked down on Su Xiaoqi.

He didn't even greet her. But he never imagined that Su Xiaoqi was here to participate in a horse race. Since when did she know how to ride a horse? Wasn't her hometown rural?

He remembered that he had heard that Su Xiaoqi's hometown was very remote, on the plateau, with ethnic minorities and such, with inconvenient transportation and reliance on donkeys to transport things.

But what does this have to do with horse riding?

Moreover, this kind of horse racing is something only rich people play, right? He felt superior when he came to watch the game. But Su Xiaoqi turned out to be a player, an equestrian?

Liu Shaowei was extremely surprised, even more unaccepting than seeing Su Xiaoqi at the hotel. He would rather think she was that kind of girl than see the scene now, because it made him feel ashamed.

Li Maomao was also very surprised. What Liu Shaowei had told her before was completely different. He had vaguely said that the high school classmate had a poor family background, so she may have gone astray...

Damn, now you tell me the girl riding a million-dollar horse on the screen has a poor family background?

And her clothes, they are really beautiful. Men look at faces, figures and women look at outfits, clothes, shoes, accessories and jewellery when looking at people.

Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, Li Maomao could also see that the girl's clothes were really beautiful, with a texture that was obviously very expensive. The boots were also very beautiful. She had always paid attention to the latest models of major brands, but had not seen anything similar. She even felt that she would look very beautiful if she wore this outfit. She had never seen such clothes and shoes before. She felt they should be custom made. Custom clothes are more expensive than branded ones...

What poor family conditions? Can afford custom clothes? Nonsense!

The sense of superiority she had felt in the elevator earlier now felt very embarrassing.

Because from a girl's intuition, she felt Liu Shaowei had some relationship with this high school classmate. If she was just an ordinary classmate, he would probably have at least greeted her. Hmph!

Xiaoqi did not know that Liu Shaowei had also come to watch the game. She was immersed in her book, feeling very calm.

The coach Steven, who was more anxious than the horses, pacing back and forth in front of her and tapping messages on his phone, did not affect Xiaoqi at all.

Steven looked unhappy, a bit angry, and also a bit tangled, as well as a bit excited.

In fact, there was also some private betting on such flower racing horses. Because betting on horses was not allowed in Capital City, it was only done privately. Overseas, betting on horses was often the main event of horse racing, with very detailed analysis of each horse, odds setting, and analysis.

What Steven was looking at now were the odds analysis sent by a friend. One of his not so close friends happened to participate in this competition, of course not himself but also bringing students.

Messaging Steven was actually showing off, betting his student had a high probability of winning.

Xiaoqi's odds of finishing first were shown to be almost zero, impossible. These data were professionally analyzed, looking at the riders' backgrounds, experiences, horses' abilities, pedigree, etc., still quite professional. Steven was furious when he saw these odds. He felt they looked down on people. Even if he was down on his luck, he would not bring such a bad student.

But after the anger, he became excited.

He believed in Xiaoqi. In his long career working with horses, he had never seen anyone get along with a horse so harmoniously.

She was a natural equestrian. Her feel on horseback was as if she grew up riding horses since childhood. Even Steven couldn't keep up with Xiaoqi when riding. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed this little girl could have such excellent horsemanship. And the charm she exuded on horseback was not just a pretty girl, but more like a chivalrous young nobleman who had received aristocratic education, and also a bit like someone who had been in the military.

There was also a bit of roguishness.

Moreover, Xiaoqi herself was very modest, very hardworking and diligent in learning. Any move he taught her would not be discounted and she would practice over and over to perfection, completely undaunted by the drudgery.

If her affinity with horses and riding posture at the beginning made Steven happy to have found a good seedling, Xiaoqi's learning attitude was what really moved Steven at the core.

It made Steven devote all his abilities to teaching Xiaoqi.

He believed Xiaoqi would definitely become a top rider. This was just the first step.

No one looked favorably on Xiaoqi, which was actually the most unexpected, wasn't it? Steven had a complex expression and was excited internally. He would bet on Xiaoqi winning, and winning first place.

He paced back and forth, a bit agitated, because just now, he had bet all his not abundant savings, $200,000.

After betting, he even broke out in a sweat on his forehead and his legs went soft.

There was still a little unease in his heart, that kind of excitement when dopamine surges uncontrollably, doing something without restraint, and then slowly regaining sanity as the dopamine gradually subsides.

Looking at Xiaoqi again now, still earnestly reading her Spanish book under the light, he could even see the fine fluff on her forehead. Steven wondered if he had been too impulsive, too greedy. Perhaps he should have bet on Xiaoqi to place in the top three rather than first.

After all, this was her first competition, if something went wrong or other things happened, but the bet was placed.

He gritted his teeth. Forget it, he believed in his own judgment.

But in this short time, his entire back was drenched in sweat.

In fact, he never had the habit of saving money. This sum, these savings, were a bit of compensation he received when he terminated his contract with his former company. It could be said that he was swept out. His worth was far more than this.

Xiaoqi read her book attentively, but suddenly felt a strange smell at this time, a strong smell of sweat. The competition hadn't even started yet, and the warm up didn't require getting drenched in sweat. She looked up in surprise towards the source of the smell... Steven.

"Coach, are you nervous?"

Steven nodded, then shook his head. He was straightforward and did not conceal that he had been privately betting on horse races.

Xiao Qi was surprised that there really was such a thing as betting on horse races, and that the coach had actually bet on Ji Gu to win the championship.

She had done her homework beforehand, and remembered the data on each contestant and horse very well.

After calm, rational analysis, she felt her own chances of winning were still quite high.

Xiao Qi had participated in many competitions, and was no longer the little girl who had to keep running to the bathroom before a competition due to nervousness. Now her condition was much better.

Seeing the coach like this, she thought for a moment, checked the amount of money she had left on the interface, which was over 800,000 yuan. She bet 800,000 on herself to win, uh, top three would be fine, first place still felt a bit uncertain after all. The final outcome of a matter sometimes does not bend to one person's will.

But even top three had high odds. If she could get top three, she could get five times the money.

And first place directly gave ten times.

Thinking about it, five times 800,000 yuan would be 4 million yuan directly, while ten times 200,000 USD would be 2 million USD.

Of course, if Ji Gu did not get top three, the 800,000 yuan would be gone, and even if it got top three but not first place, the 200,000 USD would be gone too.

Money was terrible in its abundance, yet also easy to lose terribly. Of course it was easy to have nothing as well.

This was probably the biggest problem with gambling - easy come, easy go, sudden wealth or bankruptcy without reason.

Steven knew his student had money, though he did not know Xiao Qi's exact financial situation. But seeing Xiao Qi was very thrifty in daily life, eating meals as cheaply as possible at the racetrack to save money... He had not expected her to take out 800,000 yuan to bet on herself getting top three...fine, not first place.

At this point, Steven threw caution to the wind. If the money was gone then so be it. He didn't need to pay alimony to his ex-wife anymore anyway. Putting down his phone, he and Xiao Qi started preparing to go on stage.
