Chapter 0031 – Admit defeat (1 / 2)

In response, Su Wanqing secretly snorted inwardly, completely disbelieving his words, “I thought they were because they disliked your poor ball skills ……”

She knew that Qi Zhi Iu had one thing in common with Qi Lao – the less he was good at it, the more he tried, just like his love for chess, which he never showed easily despite his skill, a secret that was still thanks to Gu Lao’s occasional mentions.

“On the contrary, you, just don’t hold me back.”

Qi Zhi Iu’s words were laced with a hint of warning, his eyes swept over with a slight coldness, a look that seemed to be a reminder that it wasn’t wise to talk too much just now.

“It’s not certain who’s dragging who down!”

The corners of Su Wanqing’s mouth rose, a hint of provocation in her smile, gripping the club in her hand tightly, she stepped to the side, her posture elegant and firm, as if she was ready to meet all challenges.

“Kishore ……”

The bystanders wanted to say everything.

Shio held the club, her face looking a little pale, that delicate skin adding a little more fragility in the weak light.

The corners of her mouth trembled slightly, like a petal about to wither after being attacked by the wind and rain, revealing an unspeakable aggression and unwillingness.

“Yo, who made our little Shio baby suffer so much?”

Rong Ze paced up and down, a smirk hanging at the corner of his mouth, his words carried the usual flirtation, but his eyes shone with genuine concern.

“Rong Shao, you’ve misunderstood, I haven’t suffered anything, it’s just that a gust of wind blew by just now and accidentally let my eyelashes run into my eyes.”

Trying to squeeze out a small smile, Shio reached up to wipe away the tears that weren’t there, fingertips lightly touching her cheeks with a hint of self-compassion in her movements.

“Aiya, if Rong Shao is heartbroken, why don’t you personally come out and help our Xiao Shi receive this heavy club?”

The rabbit girl’s voice suddenly inserted, her slightly alluring figure casting slender shadows in the light, her tone full of gloating teasing.

“Bang!” The sound of a crisp, loud blow pierced the air as if it had shaken time.

Su Wanqing had just tried a shot, and the feel of the body was so good that it was hard to fault, as if it had been customized just for him.

Rong Ze’s gaze followed the source of the voice and looked meaningfully at Su Wanqing, slowly saying, “Qi Shao’s skills are unique and naturally he only uses his own exclusive clubs.”

“Is this going to be returned to me?”

Su Wanqing understood and read the words from that clean hit, then generously handed the club to Qi Zhiyu who was not far away.

Qi Zhi Iu took the club, the lines of his mouth gradually becoming flat without too much emotional fluctuation, and his tone flatly announced, “We’ll just take turns using this club.”

On the side, Rong Ze, who was about to take the club from Xiao Shi’s hands, his movements involuntarily gave a start, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

“Qi Shao’s clubs are traditionally kept close to his body and not allowed to be touched by others, today’s move is rare.”

He turned on his feet and unconsciously moved a few points closer to Su Wanqing’s direction, as if he wanted to explore the mystery.

“Cough cough!”

Not far away from the table, Ling Yichen coughed abruptly, apparently deliberately in order to attract some attention.

“Cough cough cough–” Rong Ze looked sideways at Ling Yi Chen with a confused expression, “I say, Old Ling, what’s wrong with you? Uncomfortable throat?”

The words were full of flirtation.

“Old Ling, don’t tough it out, you’re not in good shape today, admit defeat!”

Gu Yan Kai squeezed the club while looking at his teammate with a look full of sympathy, as if he had already seen through everything.

He suggested, “Why don’t you and Lao Li switch places and I’ll partner Xiao Su, so the chances of winning might be better.”

As he spoke, he gently nudged Leanne, the gesture subtle and full of anticipation, as if silently telling Leanne that their group was the best choice.
