Chapter 118 – Secret Calculation
Lexie followed behind Alan and Lydia, spaced out and listened to the staff explain the horse in front of her, “This horse is smaller in size and has a good personality, Mrs. Howard is new to riding this one.”
Lexie tried petting the pony’s head and was relieved to see that the pony did not resist her.
She had never ridden a horse, but she was still quite eager to do so.
After each chose their own horse, a staff member in charge led the horse out.
Lexie was a little nervous.
“This is a nice looking horse hey!”
Lydia’s voice came from behind her, “Lexie, this horse of yours looks better than the one I chose, I want to switch with you.”
Lexie looked at the horse behind Lydia with some hesitation.
The horse that Lydia chose was too tall, she had never ridden a horse before and was afraid to ride one that high.
“What’s being said?”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Alan had mounted his horse and rode over to survey the two men.
Lydia said, “I like Lexie the horse and I wanted to switch with her, but she didn’t seem too willing.”
Alan frowned, “Didn’t you choose this horse yourself, why don’t you like it again?”
“I didn’t just see it, Lexie what a cute horse.”
Lexie’s expression was clearly difficult.
Alan was about to say something, but she suddenly stepped to the side, [Then here you go.
Lydia smiled cheekily, “Thanks! I knew Lexie was a generous person.”
After saying this, she rolled onto her horse, pulled the reins from the staff’s hands, and ran away with a clip on the horse’s belly, her voice coming from the wind, “I’ll go first! You guys hurry up and follow.”
Alan rode on his horse and looked at Lexie, “If you’re scared, go pick a smaller horse again.”
Lexie shook her head, [No, I’ll try it.
“The horses at our stable are pretty good-tempered,” said the staff member who helped her get on the horse.
Fortunately, although the horse is tall, but good temperament, walking slowly, and staff holding, so after riding a while, Lexie will not be afraid.
Alan followed not far behind Lexie, seemingly unconcerned about Lydia galloping in the distance.
Lexie’s long hair swaying with the wind, white shirt, brown vest, a riding suit is very flattering to the body, sunset, from the back is a very spiritual picture.
“Mrs. Howard, want to try it a little faster?”
Lexie shook her head sharply.
“Actually, you can try.”
The staff had been persuaded to pull the reins in their hands, patted the horses, and picked up speed under their feet.
Lexie tensed up all of a sudden and her back straightened.
“Mrs. Howard, take it easy, it’s not fast.”
Lexie couldn’t speak and tried to gesture something but the staff was leading the horse in front and couldn’t see it.
Seeing this, Alan immediately scolded, “Slow down! Who told you to go so fast?”
The staff stumbled in fear, but the horse’s hooves did not brake, Lexie shrieked, his hands almost released the reins, but the staff held on to the reins for dear life.
Lexie broke out in a cold sweat.
“Ah…”
A scream suddenly came from the distance.
Lexie was startled to see from afar Lydia’s horse raised its front hooves high, the reins dangling in the air ‘snapped’, Lydia grabbed a blank, the whole person tumbled down.
“Lydia!”
Alan immediately turned his horse around and hurried over.
Lexie was also startled, panicked, dismounted and rushed over, and when she arrived, Lydia was lying on the ground with a painful face, and Alan was crouching next to her, but did not dare to move her.
Turning back to Lexie, she yelled, “What are you still doing? Call an ambulance!”
Lexie was yelled a jolt, panicked, touching the phone, but remembered that when changing clothes in the locker room, the phone was left there, did not bring out.
The staff member next to me had already called, “Hello? First Aid?”
There is a first aid point in the park, Jack came with the staff and carried a stretcher to take Lydia away, Alan’s face was anxious as it had never been before, running away after him all the way.
Lexie stood still, somewhat bewildered.
From a distance, she suddenly saw Lydia’s horse, several staff members pulling on the reins could not be pulled, as if crazy, crazy hoof.
The voice of the staff member holding the horse for himself came from behind him, “Strange, why is this horse so cranky today? Is he on the wrong medication?”
Lexie’s heart suddenly stuttered.
I don’t know where the intuition came from, she suddenly felt that there has been a gaze falling on her, raised her head to look, then saw the distant park hotel rooftop, there seems to be a figure shaking.
If Lydia hadn’t switched horses with herself today, it would have been herself who fell off the horse.
Renhe Hospital.
Kevin operated himself and Alan was waiting at the door of the operating room.
When Lexie arrived, the surgery was not yet over.
Alan saw her, “You’re not needed here, go home first.”
The door of the operating room suddenly opened from the inside.
Kevin took off his mask and came out, “People are fine, don’t worry.”
Alan breathed a sigh of relief.
“Broke two ribs, torn thigh muscles, need a period of hospitalization for observation, didn’t you say she was good at riding horses? How did she fall like this?”
Alan looked chagrined, “I shouldn’t have let her fool around on her own, the horses in the stable aren’t too familiar yet.”
Lexie, however, suddenly shook her head and handed Kevin a packet of something.
The white sealed bag contains some granules.
Kevin and Alan were both stunned.
“What is this?”
[Feed for horse farms].
When Lexie was leaving, she took a look at the stables. The feed in the trough of Lydia’s horse was so empty that she found it strange and simply scraped some of the bottom when no one was looking and loaded it away.
Alan’s face was instantly covered with a chill, “You are suspecting that this is man-made?”
Lexie nodded her head.
“Kevin.”
“I know,” Kevin took the bag of feed, “I’ll take it to a friend to help with lab tests to see if there’s anything wrong.”
“Tough.”
“It’s late, Lydia is still under anesthesia, why don’t you all go home and rest first?”
Alan shook his head, “No, I’ll stay here with her.”
Kevin was slightly stunned, subconsciously glanced at Lexie, saw her face calm, seems to have seen such a situation is not strange.
[Then I’ll go back first.]
Alan looked to Kevin, “Kevin, aren’t you off work? Send her back by the way.”
“Good.”
Alan himself pushed the operating bed and followed behind the medical staff to the ward, as if his whole body and mind were on the bed.
Only when Alan’s figure disappeared in the elevator did Lexie come back to her senses, her stomach suddenly flushed with acidity, and she couldn’t help but rush to the trash can to dry heave.
“Sister-in-law, are you all right?”
Kevin’s concerned voice came from behind him.
Lexie waved her hand and said she was fine.
Kevin suddenly thought of a time when he saw her vomiting at home, and his tone changed abruptly, “Have you been doing this a lot lately?”
