A flash of disappointment flashed in Veronica’s eyes when she heard Qin Yuanfeng’s reply. “Oh…” She nodded. It seems that this group of people were dating each other. What a waste, she thought.
“May I know if you want to give me a chance?” Veronica beamed. She knew that her straightforward nature could sometimes offend people. But she was raised in a very liberal family. Sex was not really an issue to them.
She eyed both Bei Tian and Qin Yuanfeng as dirty thoughts swirled inside her mind. We don’t really know if the two will not agree to spend the night with her, right? After all, she is not only pretty, she is also tall and fit. She has all the qualities that a man would want to see in a naked woman. Moreover, she would really love to spend a night with some handsome and rich Asian.
“Why would I give you a chance?” Qin Yuanfeng asked, almost clueless. In his mind, this woman was not only weird. She was also stupid. She agreed to have a bet with them, then they ask them for a chance? Isn’t that too stupid? He fought the urge to roll his eyes.
Stupid woman!
Veronica opened her mouth, surprised at Qin Yuanfeng’s questions. Seeing everyone stare at her as if she was a different species, she cleared her throat and looked at her brother. “Well then… we should start.” She said awkwardly. Veronica had always been a person who loved beauties. She just couldn’t help herself. Veronica nodded at her brother.
Not long after Bei Tian and Veron agreed on the terms of the contest. This time, they would do a contest of who can shoot the farthest. When Bei Tian suggested thirty meter’s Veron and Veronica immediately laughed at him. What thirty meters?
They wanted seventy meters.
Seeing Bei Tian frowned, the two started to become confident. Just as they expected, this man can shoot arrows as long as the target is not that far. However, a target that is seventy meter away from you does not just require precision. It also requires a lot of arm strength and concentration— something that the two are very familiar with.
“Seventy?” Bei Tian asked.
“Yes. Seventy. Of course… half a million should be worth that much right?” Veron asked as he sneered inwardly. “I mean… I would understand if you back out now. After all, you are not a professional.”
“Really?” Bei Tian asked before beaming. “Then… let’s make it a hundred!” Bei Tian’s eyes widened as if he just said the best idea someone had come up with. “No… No… hundred and twenty meters!”
“Hundred and what?”
“Hundred and fifty!” Bei Tian added. “Of course, I can perfectly understand if you back out now.” Beaming, he added.
“Beware of bluffs.” Veronica whispered. “He is bluffing.” There is no way that someone like Bei Tian couldn achieve that feat. Moreover, both Veronica and Veron loved archery, they knew every person in the Guinness book of world records who is related to archery.
“I know.” Veron answered before turning towards Bei Tian. “Are you sure about that?”
“Of course! We can even make it a hundred and seventy meters. I mean… no sweat but that is not that far.” Squinting his eyes at the field, Bei Tian continued to act smugly.
Seeing Bei Tian act like this, both Lily and Zhou Jingren started their heads helplessly. For some reason, Bei Tian had a special way in dealing with people. This was something that not many of them had.
A man who can be both deadly and funny is rare and they are lucky to meet someone like him in their lives.
“Alright then… I hope you won’t regret it. Veronica… please hand me my bow.” Veron said. To be honest, he was not that confident that he could even hit a target that far. However, he would never back out just because of his uncertainty.
“Wait… Wait… what are you doing?” Bei Tian asked.
“I am going to start. This is taking a lot of my time.” Veron answered, irritation flashing in his eyes.
“But the target is not moving yet.”
“What do you mean moving?”
“Moving… like it’s not still?” Bei Tian answered. “You don’t know what a moving target means?”
“I— ” Veron instantly met his sister’s eyes. “That is not part of the deal.”
“Oh! Then… it’s ok. I can perfectly understand if you backout now. After all, you are just a professional.” Bei Tian gave a sly grin instantly irritating the siblings.
The fact that Bei Tian is using their own words against them is so infuriating.
“Mr. Bei… I think we have a misunderstanding somewhere.” Veronica said. “I mean… a moving target at Hundred and seventy meters?”
“So you only shoot still targets?” Slowly a sinister smile crept on Bei Tian’s lips. “How about a moving dear? Or a moving human?”
“I— that is illegal.”
“Is it?”
“Mr. Bei… I didn’t think I would meet a really funny man like you in this country.” Veron said, easing the tension that he felt inside. “But… since you insist on having a moving target then… we will oblige.”
“Brother— “
“Bluff.” Veron interrupted his sister. “He is trying to make us think that he is very good. He is trying to intimidate us into backing down.” He said.
“But— “
“No buts.” Veron said. This man had been irritating them all night. Will he really let this opportunity go to embarrass him in front of his friends? Turning towards Bei Tian, he smiled. “Mr. Bei… I hope you don’t mind but… I would like to make sure that you can afford betting with me. Is it possible that we get this into writing?”
“Of course!” Bei Tian said. “Even better… we can record a video of each other. Isn’t that the best proof ever?” He nodded towards Qin Yuanfeng. “Choose the best angle, alright?”
