CHAPTER 1196: CHAPTER 1194: THE FIERY LION’S ROAR

The dinner was naturally extremely luxurious.

Can you imagine the scene where, while eating, there are a dozen maids standing behind you at your disposal, along with a famous violinist playing music that you’d only hear in a concert hall?

As for the ingredients, needless to say, they’re all rare treasures.

Although the red wine was home-brewed, if Daphne were willing to sell her homemade wine, the market price would be at least a hundred thousand per bottle.

In fact, to please Daphne, many people wouldn’t hesitate to pay even higher prices to buy it.

Unfortunately, the thing Daphne lacks the least is money; she wouldn’t sell her homemade wine at all.

This has led to every bottle of wine from Daphne’s winery becoming a limited edition.

With such good wine, even Zhou Hui and Li Wen, who normally don’t drink, couldn’t help but sip a few glasses.

They were already stunningly beautiful, and after drinking, their little faces became flushed and even more alluring.

This is the life of the upper class.

Everyone felt that they were living less glamorously than even one of Daphne’s pets.

Indeed, her pets cost tens of thousands per month...

In just a few days, the girls were all so impressed by Daphne that they wished she could be their mother.

To these girls, it was awe and envy, but to Lin Shiyan, it was crushing.

Complete and utter crushing.

Smashed to bits by Daphne.

Several times, Wang Dadong wanted to take Lin Shiyan away immediately, but Lin Shiyan insisted on staying.

Wang Dadong couldn’t resist, and ultimately stayed as well.

After the meal, Daphne led everyone to tour the estate, and after digesting the food, she took everyone horse riding.

It can be said that, except for Lin Shiyan, all the girls had never ridden a horse and were understandably excited.

Soon, the girls were led away by the staff to choose horses.

Lin Shiyan actually didn’t really plan to ride, but was motivated by a comment from Daphne.

"Sister Lin, in our stable, only Lion can match you, but I’m afraid you can’t handle it," Daphne said with a provocative tone.

Taizong had a famous horse called "Lion’s Roar," fierce and untamed, even Taizong couldn’t tame it.

Although Daphne’s Lion isn’t the historical fiercely untamable horse even Emperor Taizong couldn’t tame, the name suggests it’s a very unruly horse.

Lin Shiyan had already been completely crushed by Daphne, and now that Daphne challenged her with a horse, she naturally wouldn’t concede.

I, Lin Shiyan, may not measure up to you, Daphne, but can I not even tame an animal?

So, Lin Shiyan insisted on riding Lion, even Wang Dadong couldn’t stop her.

No way Wang Dadong could stop her; even ten wild horses couldn’t stop the angry Queen.

Seeing Lin Shiyan intend to ride Lion, Daphne showed a satisfied smile.

What a joke, Lion is the fiercest horse she’s ever seen, no one has ever tamed it.

A few professional horse trainers tried to take on Lion, only to end up with broken legs.

Later, Daphne personally fed the horse for several years before it reluctantly accepted her.

But only she could ride it.

Lin Shiyan’s just a woman and dares to challenge Lion, huh, if she gets hurt, she can’t blame anyone.

Lin Shiyan and the other girls went to change into riding gear, leaving only Wang Dadong and Daphne behind.

"Is it fun picking on my wife like this?" Wang Dadong took a drag on his cigarette, glancing nonchalantly at Daphne.

"Am I picking on her?" Daphne also looked nonchalantly at Wang Dadong.

In the dim night, Daphne stood in her purple gown, like a noble queen.

"Aren’t you?"

"If you say so, then so be it." Daphne turned her head away, not offering any further explanation.

Does she need to explain? No, she doesn’t.

Wang Dadong squinted his eyes slightly.

He had endured enough, really enough.

For so long, he hadn’t lost his temper because he knew Daphne was doing all this because she liked him.

But Daphne had gone too far, more and more excessive.

Just like Lin Shiyan, such a proud woman, never bows to anyone, but she had to bow to Daphne for the sake of her company.

Why should his woman bow to another woman?

Wang Dadong was angry, truly angry.

He extinguished his cigarette butt fiercely, walking towards the horse field.

At this time, Lin Shiyan was still struggling with Lion.

Lion was indeed a fierce horse; a stranger couldn’t even get close to it.

Before, when Lin Shiyan was in America, she often rode horses, so she knew a lot about them and understood how to tame wild horses.

Unfortunately, this horse was very unusual, extremely difficult to tame, not even allowing her to touch it.

Lin Shiyan fed it horse feed, but it ignored her, as though it was an aloof monarch.

The harder it was to tame Lion, the more determined Lin Shiyan became; today, she had to tame this unruly horse!

It was unclear if she wanted to prove it to Daphne or to show Wang Dadong that she was no worse.

Seeing his wife sweating profusely from dealing with a beast—not riding, but sweating profusely from taming the horse—Wang Dadong wanted to help, but Lin Shiyan refused.

Wang Dadong understood Lin Shiyan’s temper and could only obediently stand aside.

Eventually, after much effort, Lin Shiyan finally mounted Lion. Well... she forcefully got onto Lion.

But Lion simply bucked wildly, throwing Lin Shiyan off within moments.

Although she had protective gear, she was still thrown off with a grimace.

Wang Dadong felt extremely distressed, but Lin Shiyan still didn’t allow him to assist her, stubbornness etched on her face.

Finally, Lin Shiyan successfully mounted Lion, and Lion galloped away.

Wang Dadong’s expression changed; if the Female CEO fell off, she would definitely get injured.

"Dadong, I tamed it!" the Female CEO shouted as she rode Lion, covering several hundred meters, triumph on her face, but as soon as she spoke, Lion suddenly bucked, throwing her off again.

This time, Lin Shiyan was thrown down, rolling several meters on the ground before coming to a stop.

What they feared came to pass.

After throwing Lin Shiyan, Lion ran forward dozens of meters, then turned back and ran toward her.

Lin Shiyan attempted to dodge but found that she was so sore she couldn’t move.

If Lion stomped on her again, her ribs might break, or she might even be killed.

When Lion was only three meters away, he leaped up, aiming to trample her.

As if it intended to stomp Lin Shiyan to death, this foolish woman dared to ride it!

As she stared at the increasingly large approaching Lion in her pupils, a trace of bitterness appeared on Lin Shiyan’s face.

She hadn’t expected to die not from illness but by being trampled by a horse.

Such a disgraceful way to die.

But who could she blame, since she insisted on taming this fierce horse?

However, just when Lin Shiyan thought she was dead for sure, a tall figure suddenly stood in front of her.
