Ji Shasha fixed her eyes on Yun Jian with her front teeth biting down on her lips. The force in which she had done it was evidence of how much she resented Yun Jian currently—but her expression was still kept in an extremely friendly manner.
“Hold on!” Watching as the vendor passed the darts to Yun Jian while the latter was going to take them, Ji Shasha stopped them abruptly.
Yun Jian paused and her hand froze in the air as well. She had long seen Ji Shasha for who she really was, so she was waiting to see what tricks the girl had up her sleeves. She paused her motion and crossed her arms in front of herself as she stood before the balloon shooting game stall.
Given Yun Jian’s poise and her outstanding appearance, not only did she look tall and lean standing there, her aloof yet delicately youthful face commanded the attention of others. Her grace and charm was something people like Ji Shasha could never compare to.
“What?” Yun Jian drawled casually, her tone laced with a tinge of idleness.
Ji Shasha could not help gulping but she pressed on with her ever-present signature of a smile. “Zhang Chengrui, weren’t you pretty good at shooting guns, darts, and arrows? What a coincidence that Ling Yichen’s friend is good too. Why don’t both of you compete?”
“Heh, I think a plain game is too boring. It’s more thrilling if you two go up in a match, right?”
Ji Shasha kept challenging them.
Guys like fun thrills, so did girls. As long as they were not the person being put on the spot, they would love to watch others engaging in exciting things or a competition!
Therefore, Ji Shasha had just finished her provocation when she and Zhang Chengrui’s friends began to cheer and make noise.
“Yeah, both of you compete! We’ll all watch! Heh heh!” someone hollered at Yun Jian and Zhang Chengrui.
“Oh yeah! Pretty girl, go against Zhang Chengrui! You must be lucky to win the giant plushie last time—didn’t people say that luck is also a part of one’s capabilities? Zhang Chengrui’s marksmanship is great and he’s good at throwing darts and archery too. Accept the match. We’ll give you the seal of approval if you win!”
Although Yun Jian had won the large stuffed toy, she had only won it once. Ji Shasha’s friends would never relate it to the possibility that she could be trained. After all, which girl knew how to shoot guns and arrows or throw darts? All of them there just thought that Yun Jian won the big stuffed toy out of pure luck.
Taking in how the group was looking at Yun Jian skeptically, Ling Yichen was inwardly delighted, already picturing how Yun Jian would show them what she could do later.
At the same time, Zhang Chengrui who was asked to compete against Yun Jian in shooting had his eyes fixated on said girl. He had even flicked his cropped hair in presumed suaveness, looking unmistakably vain.
Zhang Chengrui had never won the stuffed toy before but he was known to be good in this balloon shooting game. In addition to the acclamation from people around him, he actually thought that he was remarkable. Simultaneously, he assumed Yun Jian’s achievement of winning the stuffed toy as good luck. Truly, luck was a part of someone’s capabilities!
Thinking about it, Zhang Chengrui flicked his short hair again and stared right into Yun Jian’s eyes, deciding to go big in what he was about to say.
“Cutie, what do you think? We play against each other and if you lose, you’ll be my girlfriend!”
