Chapter 120: One Cannot Carve On Decayed Wood
Naturally, Xie Qiao thought the biggest possibility of taming animals came from the after-effects of transmigrating into a fetus.
She had a lethal fate to her parents since young, and she had a lethal destiny. It was just too pitiful. Therefore, she would speak to animals in return for consolation.
Meng Jifang and the rest were dumbstruck.
They thought it was just a coincidence that one horse listened to Xie Qiao. However, every horse brought out would completely change as soon as Xie Qiao handled them, even if they were rather unwilling initially. They would turn into clingy pets from wild and hard to tame animals!
Convinced!
They were convinced!
Given Xie Qiao’s skill, their effort was reduced to half!
Not only that, they would not be kicked by horses, nor would they look clumsy. That was the most important thing.
Xie Qiao, on the other hand, was relaxed. However, Xia Yayun had continuous unforeseen incidents on her side. Naturally, the horses there were not completely untamed. Most of the horses in the two rows that Xia Yayun and Xie Qiao had been assigned to were ponies. The overseer knew that no matter how shameless Meng Jifang was, he would not fight with ladies. Therefore, he had secretly reduced Xie Qiao and Xia Yayun’s workload.
However, not all horses were obedient.
Xia Yayun was unfamiliar with it. She accidentally hurt the horse with the brush when she was brushing it, and the horse was suddenly stirred.
It shrieked twice while galloping around the stilt. Suddenly, it was stirred and slammed into Xia Yayun. Although it was not really painful, she was slammed onto the ground. Her face paled from the scare, and she dared not get any closer!
Especially when she saw Xie Qiao standing there and smiling beautifully over there, while she…
At that moment, she felt like she was a clumsy servant!
“Xie Qiao, can you not smile so gently? Look at that angry one over there. You guys are ladies. Why do you challenge her like that?” Meng Jifang teased.
Xia Yayun looked like she was going to kill someone. Even a fool could see that.
If that happened to him, he would be angry too!
“You’ve no idea. This is the demeanor of an expert,” Xie Qiao said slowly.
“Demeanour of an expert?” Meng Jifang could not help but choke. “Wow, you’re even more braggy than I am. The teacher has punished you to clean the stable, so how are you an expert?”
“You won’t understand.” Xie Qiao was stubborn.
The first thing that she had taught her master was that one must remain relaxed at all times.
As a Half-Immortal, if she was always clumsy, nobody would trust her no matter how talented and capable she was.
Meng Jifang was actually a little angry upon hearing what Xie Qiao said. This young lady was a little irritating. She was like a senior who insisted on looking unfathomable.
However, the thing was that she was quite mysterious indeed—especially her skill in taming horses. She would conquer the Imperial City with that!
“Why don’t you teach me to tame horses? I’ll take care of you from now on. I guarantee nobody in the academy will dare to stir trouble with you!” Meng Jifang said immediately.
Xie Qiao glanced at him and said casually, “No. One cannot carve on decayed wood.”
He wanted to tame horses when he was so fierce? He deserved being kicked by the horse!
Meng Jifang thought about it and asked, “Don’t tell me you’ve no idea who I am?”
He signaled his brothers after saying that. The brother next to him understood right away, “Our young master is—”
However, before he was done speaking, the few of them looked away from Meng Jifang.
A figure was walking over. They bowed while cupping their hands immediately.
“Your Highness.”
Xie Qiao turned her head.
‘Why is the Crown Prince here? Can it be that he’s being punished as well? Who is so brave to punish him?
‘That can’t be? I heard that the Crown Prince has graduated. Apart from the academy’s dean, I suppose nobody dares to teach him a lesson…’
“I heard there are a few wild horses, so I thought I’d check them out.” Zhao Xuanjing glanced over. “It seems these batches of wild horses aren’t the ones that I heard about?”
‘How are these wild horses!?
‘Ha, the one next to Xie Qiao. That’s one wild horse!
‘It looks majestic, but why is it showing its tummy?’
