Chapter 737: Do Whatever You Want (2)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At this moment, Akexi walked over, feeling a bit uneasy watching the horse he had raised for so many years being so affectionate with a stranger.
The black horse seemed truly spiritual, nudging its head a couple more times, then turning its body sideways toward Zhou Chao.
While Zhou Chao was puzzled, Akexi and the little black guide beside him were wide-eyed!
“Akexi, what’s this?” Zhou Chao asked, puzzled.
“It wants you to ride it!” Akexi didn’t conceal anything and explained the black horse’s behavior directly.
Hearing this, Zhou Chao’s eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly, “Is that okay?”
Akexi hesitated for a moment, then nodded. He knew that if he didn’t agree, the black horse might develop a psychological issue.
Some might think this waschildish. After all, the black horse was just an animal. How could there be such a problem? But it was true, and there were many such examples.
Because Akexi understood this, even if he didn’t want to agree, he had to let Zhou Chao ride the black horse.
Just as Zhou Chao got on, the black horse neighed excitedly and trotted toward him. The onlookers, including Si Cong, quickly stepped back a few steps.
With the reins in hand, Zhou Chao looked at Akexi and said, “Don’t worry, Akexi. Nothing will happen. Even if something does, I’ll take full responsibility. Si Cong can be a witness!”
Akexi was speechless for a moment but finally condensed all his words into one sentence, “Be safe!”
Nodding to the others, Zhou Chao lightly kicked the horse’s belly.
“Giddy-up!”
The black horse began to walk slowly, gradually transitioning from a walk to a trot, picking up speed.
Soon Zhou Chao adapted, leaned forward, and patted the horse’s head, “Let’s run free!”
Perhaps understanding Zhou Chao’s words, the black horse neighed and accelerated.
Amidst the exclamations of the crowd, Zhou Chao’s figure grew further and further away until it disappeared from view.
“Akexi, you should let go too. Look how happy Black Cloud is running. It’s been so many years!” The little black guide said somewhat melancholically.
“Yeah, some things should be let go of!” Akexi sighed deeply, a hint of a smile on his face.
The incident from back then had always been a burden on his heart, suffering such injustice for no reason. Anyone would find it hard to accept.
Once bitten by a snake, you’re scared of ropes for ten years. It’s normal to have such worries.
Akexi suddenly turned around and looked at Si Cong and Lin Wu, “You two, interested in taking a ride?”
“Can we?!” Si Cong suddenly became interested.
“Of course, but you’ll need my company. These horses are all raised by me and are very obedient to me. Of course, you shouldn’t provoke them either!”
Si Cong rubbed his hands excitedly, “Alright, you can trust me!”
Although Lin Wu didn’t speak, his eyes had already revealed that he also wanted to ride!
After Si Cong and Lin Wu chose their mounts, they mounted them directly. Seeing this, Akexi also got on the last horse.
“My good brother, I’ll have to trouble you to watch the Mongolian yurt here!”
The little black guide waved his hand with a faint smile, “No problem, you guys go ahead. I’ll watch over it here!”
Nodding to the little black guide, the three horses trotted slowly in the direction where Zhou Chao had left.
Watching the others leave, the smile on the little black guide’s face gradually disappeared, muttering somewhat dejectedly, “Why couldn’t there be one more horse? I also want to ride, I also want to gallop…”
With a long sigh, the little black guide sat down in front of the Mongolian yurt, quietly watching the distant horizon.
Meanwhile, Zhou Chao, riding the black horse, galloped across the boundless grassland. Although the cold wind was biting, his excitement was palpable.
“Phew!” Zhou Chao lightly hummed, tightening the reins in his hands.
The once galloping black horse gradually slowed down. Zhou Chao patted its head gently, “Alright, let’s go back.”
The black horse snorted and turned around, slowly heading back the way they came. The run had consumed quite a bit of its energy.
The blue sky, white clouds, grassland, a man, a horse, and windmills! They painted a scene that filled one with longing.
As Zhou Chao admired the beauty around him, several roaring sounds erupted. He turned back to see several off-road vehicles speeding across the grassland, stirring up yellow-green grass and mud in the air!
Zhou Chao’s face darkened. Watching the off-road vehicles approaching, he urged his horse forward and galloped straight towards them.
Perhaps noticing Zhou Chao’s actions, the off-road vehicles gradually slowed down. Soon, Zhou Chao forced them to stop.
“Don’t you know you’re not allowed to drive into this kind of grassland?” Zhou Chao shouted loudly.
A horn sounded from the leading white dominant vehicle. “Brother, judging from your appearance, you’re here for tourism too, right? You’re being a bit overbearing. If we didn’t know any better, we’d think you’re the owner of this grassland!”
Listening to this somewhat mocking remark, a glint of coldness flashed in Zhou Chao’s eyes. He rode directly to the side of the dominant vehicle. At this moment, the car window rolled down, revealing a young couple inside.
“Do you not realize what consequences your actions will bring to this grassland?” Zhou Chao questioned sternly.
“Consequences? What consequences? We’ll just pay some money, no big deal. Do I look like I’m short on cash? I’ll do whatever I want!” The young man boasted, gesturing to the two cars beside him.
The next moment, two roaring sounds erupted, and the two off-road vehicles rushed off in opposite directions. Soon, grass flew in the air, and patches of yellow soil appeared in Zhou Chao’s sight.
The young man smirked at Zhou Chao, taunting, “Brother, how about that? Exciting, right?”
After speaking, the young man started rampaging with his vehicle. Whether they noticed the distant horsemen or had a sudden pang of conscience, they soon stopped their destructive behavior and turned their vehicles around, heading back the way they came.
As they passed Zhou Chao, they made an international gesture of contempt. Even the girl in the passenger seat looked at Zhou Chao with disgust and muttered, “Busybodies!”
Zhou Chao watched the vehicles leave expressionlessly, silently memorizing their license plate numbers.
The previously pleasant mood shattered with the appearance of the vehicles.
Shortly after, the vehicles disappeared into the distance. Moments later, the sound of hooves approached from behind, accompanied by Si Cong and Lin Wu’s shouts.
“Young Master Zhou (Boss), are you okay?”
Si Cong and the others on horseback stopped beside Zhou Chao.
“Why are you here?”
“It’s a long story. Young Master Zhou, what happened here?” Si Cong looked at the grassland, now turned into yellow soil, stretching for hundreds of meters.
Zhou Chao then recounted the events, and upon hearing it, Akexi cursed loudly, “Damn it, these bastards are ruining our grassland again!”
“What’s going on, Akexi?”
Akexi then explained to the three that these people were tourists from elsewhere who had been engaging in such behavior repeatedly. They had been caught by the tourist area’s staff before, and they’d paid some money to be let go.
Who knew there were two more incidents like this later on, but no one saw them, and the tourist area was helpless. After all, the grassland is so vast, it’s impossible to have cameras everywhere. In the end, they could only let it go.
But these people went even further in their destruction!
After hearing Akexi’s words, even Si Cong, who usually didn’t care about such matters, couldn’t help but curse softly.
Zhou Chao’s brows furrowed even deeper, and Lin Wu, seeing this, knew that his boss was genuinely angry this time.
“Akexi, do you know where these people are from and what their families do?”
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s question, Akexi furrowed his brows and thought for a moment. “I heard they’re rich second-generation from some place called Jingdu. Their families are wealthy, but I don’t know their specific names. However, the management office of the tourist area must have relevant information!”
“Let’s go, let’s go back and ask!”
Zhou Chao finished speaking and rode off on his black horse in the direction they came from. Si Cong and the others quickly followed suit.
