Chapter 5 – The Horse Was Shocked

The horse carriage had been moving forward smoothly. The speed wasn’t fast or slow. At least this speed allowed Ling Xuan to feel more at ease. It’s like there wouldn’t be any problems happening. But she knew, things would not be so peaceful.

After thinking about it not too long ago, the smooth moving carriage suddenly bumped a little. The horse hoofed and the carriage swayed left and right. Mother Lin and Cha-er screamed with fear. Ling Xuan was the only one who remained silent in the carriage.

In her past life, Mother Lin and Cha-er were inside the carriage accompanying her. It was different from now as they got to see the horse went crazy in front of them. She wished to know, in this lifetime, after getting scared by this incident, would Mother Lin said the same thing.

Ling Xuan knew that she would not get into an accident when the horse went crazy. However, things that were happening now was a little different from past life.

“Miss, the horse has already settled down, please get down from the carriage!” Cha-er was telling her while still feeling scared.

Lifting the curtain of the carriage, Ling Xuan extended her small white hand, allowing Cha-er to help her get down the carriage carefully. She then asked, “What happened? Why will the horse suddenly go crazy?”

“Miss, the horse was hit by someone that was why it went crazy.” A man holding onto the rope replied with respect. Maybe he was the one who tamed the horse.

“Is it?” The horse was hit, haha, she should have known who was the one who did it.

“Miss, don’t listen to his nonsense. Who knows, maybe the one who hit the horse was him.” Mother Lin replied with a white face, “Everyone did not dare to come forward, only him, dared to step forward. Don’t know what he is scheming!”

“Y-you…. how can you say such words?” The man who tamed the horse was angry with what Mother Lin had said. Because Mother Lin was a woman so he did not know how to vent his anger.

“Did I say wrongly? Everyone did not dare to step forward. You are the only one who dared to tame the crazy horse. If it wasn’t you who do something to the horse in the dark, the horse will go crazy?” Mother Lin behaved aggressively, Ling Xuan was looking from the side with a cold grin.

“I took care of the horse at Jiang Nan. Just that this time Miss come to Jiang Nan, it is shorthanded in the villa. This is the reason they transferred me here. Mother Lin saying this is trying to force me to die?” That guy was also a stubborn person, he won’t allow Mother Lin to accuse him.

“Yes yes, Da Chang works in the horse cabin, he has the skill to tame the horse.” Someone who followed Da Chang here replied.

This explanation let Mother Lin’s face become green and white and red.

“Alright, Mother Lin, this issue is not yet clarified. You commenting so much, what is it that you want?” Ling Xuan reprimanded. Although her tone didn’t sound very strict, she was saying this in front of so many people. This meant that Ling Xuan was not giving any face to Mother Lin, and it was worse than slapping her. “You are Da Chang, correct? Today, thank you so much. Mother Lin was shocked just now that was why she would say such words, please don’t be angry.”

“Miss, servant don’t dare!” Da Chang glanced at Mother Lin, who was looking at him angrily.

“The horse is hurt, can it still walk?” Now what worries her was this.

“Walking is not an issue. The servant is just afraid that the horse was frightened just now, maybe the journey won’t be smooth. Why not just change to another horse and then continue the journey, what do you think miss?” Da Chang was a good one. He did not care too much about what Mother Lin had accused him.

“Alright, please do as you say.” Ling Xuan felt that Da Chang was good, so she agreed to his suggestion.

Now, Mother Lin looked very gloomy. Ling Xuan did not bother about her. She sat down slowly at the side to rest with the help of Cha-er, and she did not think of anything regarding this issue.

Mother Lin was feeling flustered. She was thinking that could the miss already suspected something? She was also thinking about why the things she had prepared did not happen as expected? If they changed the horse, the carriage could continue the journey, all the plans would be broken.
