Shocking! A Hong Kong socialite gave birth to three heirs to a wealthy family.

Chapter 184 Shen Yao's First Competition

Today, both Class A and Class C races are being held at Ben Yeung Racecourse. The betting methods for Class A and Class C races are the same, the difference being that Class A races will be broadcast live. Hong Kong Island residents who did not come to the racecourse today can also purchase tickets for Class A races elsewhere.

The Class C horse race that Shen Yao participated in was not broadcast live.

Shen Yao told Shen Wancheng that it was her first time participating in a horse race and she was afraid of making mistakes, being penalized by rules she didn't know, and losing a place, which would be embarrassing. So she didn't tell their maternal grandfather, Xu Pingtao.

Shen Wancheng knew that Shen Yao was nervous, but she saw through it without saying anything and let Shen Yao do as she pleased.

Because Shen Wancheng had to accompany Kelin, after they arrived at the horse farm, Shen Wancheng did not go inside to find Shen Yao, but went directly to the VIP section with Gu Jinxing and Kelin.

Shen Wancheng arrived at the VIP section and only realized it was the weekend when she saw the large number of audience members.

Gu Jinxing rarely came to see Marseille, and he was the youngest person in charge among the major wealthy families in Hong Kong. The others of his generation were still playing around all day.

Therefore, Gu Jinxing attracted the attention of the VIP area as soon as he appeared.

Shen Wancheng also heard her own name among the whispers.

"Is that Gu Jinxing? I rarely see him at the horse farm. His leg is really healed! Who was it that spread the rumor that he was really lame and couldn't be cured?"

"Keep your voice down, aren't you afraid he'll hear you? Who could have spread it? It must have been Gu Jintian."

"It's been quite a while since I've seen Gu Jintian. Why hasn't she come out to play?"

"Don't you know? The Gu family has changed. Gu Jintian's mother was kicked out of the Gu family. Maybe the whole family is no longer in Hong Kong now."

"Gu Jintian is so pitiful, she's not as lucky as that girl from the mainland."

"You mean the one holding Gu Jinxing's arm? Is that Shen Wancheng? Hahaha, she's lucky. It seems Gu Jinxing said before that if he hears anyone criticizing Shen Wancheng again, no matter who they are, he will investigate to the end."

"It should be Shen Wancheng, but I hope it isn't. It would be interesting if it wasn't."

The whole place is very noisy right now. People in the VIP area think they are keeping their voices down, but if you listen carefully, you can hear what they are saying.

Shen Wancheng heard that Gu Jinxing had dealt with the rumors for her in such a simple and crude way, so she leaned closer to Gu Jinxing and said.

"You even threatened the people who spread rumors about me?"

Gu Jinxing glanced at Shen Wancheng and nodded without denying it.

Shen Wancheng's lips unconsciously curled up, but she said...

"I'll handle the women's issues myself. Whether your words will be useful or not is another matter, but they certainly won't be as convincing as my own presence in this circle."

Gu Jinxing nodded again, "Okay."

"Thank you anyway."

"You're welcome."

"Shen, Gu, I regret not bringing a female companion to Hong Kong Island. You two are so lucky, you don't consider my feelings at all."

Klin's words were very straightforward. He might have just been stating facts and not making a joke, but for some reason, it made Shen Wancheng feel a little embarrassed.

Gu Jinxing remained calm and even made a rare joke about Klin.

"Clin, perhaps you could find a female companion in Hong Kong."

"That's a good idea, Gu. Do you know any beautiful Asian women like Shen that you could introduce to me?"

"How could there possibly be a woman more beautiful than my fiancée in my heart? You're putting me in a difficult position."

"Haha, I was wrong. Do you know Song Aiyi? Could you introduce me to her?"

The Song Aiyi that Ke Lin mentioned is a popular actress in Hong Kong, and like Li Shaojie, she is also somewhat famous internationally.

Gu Jinxing stated bluntly, "I don't know any female celebrities."

"That's such a pity." After saying regretfully, Kelin said to Shen Wancheng, "Shen, you will definitely be very happy in the future with a man like Gu as your husband."

Shen Wancheng smiled and said, "Thank you."

Gu Jinxing said, "It is my good fortune that Shen Wancheng can become my wife."

Klin laughed exaggeratedly, "My God, I'm so superfluous today."

Shen Wancheng pinched Gu Jinxing's waist and asked him in a low voice.

"Are you here today to show your determination?"

Gu Jinxing turned his head to look at Shen Wancheng and said, "These are all my heartfelt words."

Shen Wancheng glared at Gu Jinxing, then looked at the field and happened to see Shen Yao, dressed in riding attire, leading a brown horse onto the field.

She changed the subject, saying, "Yao Yao is on stage now."

Before the race begins, each jockey will lead his horse around the track once, closest to the stands, so that spectators can clearly see the condition of each horse that has a number on it.

When Shen Wancheng entered the venue, she had already bought 100,000 yuan worth of Shen Yao's numbers.

Ten thousand dollars was a lot for Shen Wancheng and her friends when they first arrived in Hong Kong, but for Shen Wancheng now, it was just a drop in the ocean.

Shen Wancheng only bet 100,000. It wasn't that Shen Wancheng didn't trust Shen Yao, but rather that there were fewer people betting large sums in Class C matches. Betting too much would attract attention and lower Shen Yao's odds, making people notice Shen Yao and thus deem her a dark horse.

Generally, for jockeys like Shen Yao who are making their first appearance, the odds in the race data will be relatively high, indicating that the official prediction is that she has a low chance of winning.

When Shen Yao patrolled the area and came to Shen Wancheng and the others, she broke her serious expression and waved to Shen Wancheng with a smile.

Shen Wancheng waved in response.

Then he turned to Klin and asked, "Klin, did you notice her last time? She was my bodyguard last time, but she's actually my sister."

Klin thought for a moment, "I don't remember. But I remember now, was she a jockey? What was her number?"

"number 8."

"I see you bought this one number. You have a lot of confidence in your sister."

"of course."

Klin glanced at the odds displayed on the big screen and said.

"Your sister has very high odds, which means that many people don't believe she has the ability."

"So she will be the dark horse."

"Okay, I'll buy her too. I hope you can help me make another profit today."

"Trust me, it definitely will."

After circling the track once, the jockeys stand at the starting line to warm up and prepare for the race.

The atmosphere at the scene became lively.

On the track, the horses were already in position, and the jockeys had mounted their horses. The jockeys gently patted the horses' necks to soothe the immense power that was about to erupt.

As the referee raised the flag in preparation, the noise in the arena gradually subsided, replaced by a sense of suppressed tension.

Shen Wancheng and her group were not far from the starting line. Shen Wancheng could even see Shen Yao's tense and focused expression as she rode on her horse.

At this moment, Shen Yao was no longer the lively person she usually was. Her eyes were fixed straight ahead, bright and firm, and she had an inexplicable sense of conviction.

"Oh!"

With the sound of an air gun blast, all the horses lined up side by side charged out in perfect unison.

The difference in timing became apparent the moment later, with Shen Yao riding her brown horse taking the lead.
