Reincarnation: My Possessive Beast Husband

Chapter 32: Chapter 32 His Horse is Old and Frail

The farmer was stunned. He glanced at the noble Marquis Mansion, then at the handsome young master before him, somewhat unable to understand why someone of such distinguished status would want to sell his horse.

His horse was both old and weak, practically on the verge of being laid to rest in the earth.

Su Yan directly pulled out an ingot of silver and stuffed it into his hand, smiling,

“Is this silver enough to buy your horse?”

“Enough… It’s enough…” The farmer nodded somewhat stutteringly.

This silver, even if it were for buying a healthy horse, would be more than sufficient.

...

Did this young master not know? Or was he just amusing himself at the old man’s expense?

“Then it’s settled, we have a deal.”

Su Yan took the reins from his hand, stretched out his hand to stroke the horse’s mane, and said,

“An old steed in the stable still aspires to gallop a thousand li. Do you, too, harbor such lofty aspirations?”

The old horse seemed to understand her, suddenly raising its hoof and neighing loudly, displaying a hint of its past energetic spirit.

Su Yan pursed her lips and smiled, nodding in admiration,

“Not bad, I truly haven’t misjudged you. From now on, you will follow me, and your abilities will not be buried.”

Chu Yuxiao, who had been watching all along, darkened his eyes appreciatively at the phrase ‘An old steed in the stable still aspires to gallop a thousand li.’

His gaze towards Su Yan changed once again, from initial disdain to doubt, to a moment of admiration…

Su Yan mounted the horse and patted its head,

“Let’s go, to the government office.”

The old horse turned around and walked toward the direction of the government office as if it knew the way very well.

And Su Yan, she did not spare Chu Yuxiao, who was behind her, a single glance.

The old horse led her straight to the front of the government office without any need for Su Yan’s guidance.

Su Yan, excited, patted its back, exclaiming,

“People say, ‘An old horse knows the way,’ and indeed, this saying is true.

With you, I believe I won’t get lost in Linglan City anymore.”

“Marquis, Young Master Su, you have arrived.”

The Magistrate, who had been guarding the entrance, hurried over to greet them upon seeing their arrival.

“Where is the body?” Chu Yuxiao asked bluntly.

“Inside.” The Magistrate made a gesture of invitation.

After handing her horse over to a Government Official for safekeeping, Su Yan followed him inside.
