CHAPTER 229: CHAPTER 229: XIAO SI IS IMPRESSED, IS THIS THE DOMESTIC ENTERTAINMENT RACING CAMEL?

[Is Gu Zhi crazy? Insisting on racing at all costs, not afraid something might go wrong? Trying to show off?]

[What’s wrong with Gu Yiyi’s fans? Wasn’t it your sister who used the provocative method first? Whether Gu Zhi races or not, she’s getting criticized?]

[Triggered into racing? Does she really think she’s the spoiled rich girl of the Gu Family? Don’t blame us if something goes wrong with Yiyi. SMILE/Farewell.]

[COVERING MOUTH LAUGH Well, it’s uncertain if Zhi Zhi will lose or not, I feel like she wouldn’t accept if she wasn’t confident.]

[CHEERING Looking forward to Zhi Zhi’s camel race!]

Their parents were quite worried when they heard about the camel race.

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin were particularly uneasy, with grim expressions, "Zhi Zhi, let’s not race. It’s too dangerous, what if you fall?"

They had heard of horse races but never camel races, and camels are taller than horses.

Gu Zhi, however, only gave them a reassuring look and promised, "It’s okay, I never do anything I’m not confident in."

"But..." Mrs. Qin still had concerns, primarily about Gu Zhi’s safety.

Father Qin, however, shook his head confidently. He inexplicably believed in Zhi Zhi; if she dared to race, she would certainly win.

Even if she doesn’t win, it’s fine.

Jiang Xiangwan was also worried, but seeing Gu Zhi’s determination, she said no more. She suddenly found herself excited, wondering if Zhi Zhi’s posture on a camel would be as cool as on a horse!

It’s fine; Zhi Zhi just needs to look cool; she would protect her!

The production team was thrilled to hear about the camel race.

It’s the first time they’ve encountered guests who actively looked for challenges, making their planning much easier!

They immediately sent someone to communicate with the manager of the scenic spot.

After discussing, the group mounted camels outside the fence.

In a row, they were all outstandingly attractive big stars from the entertainment industry, forming a striking sight atop tall camels.

Their rule was simple: start from one point, then return to the finish line. The shortest time wins.

Everyone tightened their reins, looking eager and tense.

Qi Yunlin patted the camel’s chin reassuringly, letting it get acquainted with his scent before straightening up. He inadvertently glanced at Gu Zhi in the distance, frowning slightly.

He suddenly felt anticipation, curious if Gu Zhi could really ride, visualizing her gallant horse-taming image.

When the preparatory whistle sounded, everyone snapped back to focus and geared up.

"Hiss—" As the whistle blew, everyone straightened up to start.

"Go!" Han Liheng sat powerfully atop his camel, ready to charge ahead.

But the camel merely walked a few steps leisurely, with its bells jingling softly.

Han Liheng: "?"

[HAHAHA Brother Burger really thought he was riding a horse, shouting ’go’, expecting a ’magnificent camel charge’, and out comes this?]

[LOL This is your entertainment industry’s camel race?]

Others were similar, nothing like the imagined "charging horse", as the camels, used to trotting, only strolled slowly forward.

Only Gu Yiyi, who somehow got a whip, lashed the camel hard, and it shot off as if goaded.

Immediately, dust and sand kicked up in a gust.

[Wow! Our girl is so cool! She really is the best!]

[Not many female stars who look this cool on horses and camels. Directors, take note; she needs a role in an equestrian show!]

[What’s up with Gu Yiyi? Does she really need to whip the scenic area’s camels for the race? Where’s her humanity?]

[Isn’t it normal to whip camels when riding? Haven’t you ridden before? Even the staff at scenic areas use whips.]

[LOL It’s better than some who can’t even get off the starting line. How can they even have the nerve to compete? Just wait to lose.]

In the live stream, Gu Zhi didn’t rush. While others grew anxious at their camels’ slow pace, Gu Zhi stayed calm, sitting quietly on the hump, waiting for her camel to move forward slowly.

Until others were finding ways to speed up their camels.

Qi Yunlin, seeing Gu Yiyi already sprinting ahead, couldn’t resist taking a whip from the herdsman and hitting his camel hard, moving quickly.

Han Liheng, seeing this, quickly copied, squeezing his legs to push his camel to chase.

Soon, all their camels began to accelerate, covering a considerable distance.

Gu Yiyi’s camel had already crossed a hill, disappearing from view.

Jiang Xiangwan, seeing this, grew urgent. She wanted to walk, but she didn’t want Zhi Zhi to lose! Seems Gu Zhi really can’t ride horses after all...!

She frowned, helplessly looking at Gu Zhidao: "What do we do, Zhi Zhi? They’re so far ahead; what if we lose?"

Gu Zhi only gave her a casual glance, smiling indulgently: "Lean forward, hold the reins tight, and be safe."

Jiang Xiangwan was a bit confused but followed the instructions.

[Is Gu Zhi okay, pretending to be calm at this point? Can’t ride means can’t ride. Why the act?]

[Exactly, if you can’t ride, don’t accept the challenge. No need to drag Jiang Xiangwan down into losing too. Goodbye.]

[Haters, stop posing as Wanwan’s fans to insult others. Our Wanwan is just worried about her friend. Girl friendships are deep. HAPPY.]

[Exactly! The Zhiwan couple is the sweetest! Who wouldn’t get Zhi Zhi’s indulgent look just now??]

[I have a feeling Gu Zhi is about to exert force! After all, no one loses in front of their wife! DOGHEAD.]

Jiang Xiangwan’s fans: What? Is that what she meant?

The barrage was heatedly discussing when Gu Zhi suddenly leaned forward, one hand gripping the reins tightly, the other seemingly comforting or encouragingly stroking the camel’s neck before pressing her legs together.

Instantly, the camel below seemed to receive a cue, its bright eyes locked on the path forward, as if ignited with fighting spirit, charging forward fiercely.

The audience in the live stream and those around almost missed what happened, they saw Jiang Xiangwan’s camel follow closely, giving her no prep time, bolting like a runaway horse.

"Ahhhhh!"

Amidst Jiang Xiangwan’s screams, a cloud of dust rose.

In the endless desert, two slender figures rode on tall, mighty camels, galloping among the yellow sands, nearly too fast to see them.

The camels’ leaping legs reached almost two meters in height, nearly tossing them off, but they were prepared, gripping the reins tightly, quickly finding balance on the hump.

Han Liheng and Sun Chaohua, left far behind by their continual acceleration: ?
