Snooker?
Xiao Luo was quiet. This plan was another one of Chu Yueâs tricks. He unconsciously revealed a smooth arc at the corner of his mouth as he replied, âIâve only played pool. Never tried snooker before!â
Fu Jiawei chuckled in his heart: It would be odd if youâd tried something as high class as snooker!
His expression was calm as he pointed to a place not far from the dance floor. âWell, are you interested? I happen to have a snooker table over here.â
Looking in the direction where Fu Jiawei was pointing, an open-air building that looked like a giant white swan came into view. Inside was a snooker table. There were fifteen red balls and six colored balls and holes at all four corners and the center of the two longer sides of the table. The green surface of the table was as smooth as a mirror.
Xiao Luo smiled, âI can give it a try!â
He doesnât mind giving these people a lesson and earning some points in the process.
Ye Yingying came forward, âIâll play with you, Xiao Luo.â
âA beautiful girl wants to play with me? Iâm raising both of my hands in approval!â
Xiao Luo nodded and said casually, âBut merely playing wonât be that fun. How about we spice things up a little?â
Ye Yingying was surprised. Then, she took out a bank card from her pocket and said, âSure. Thereâs 50 grand on this card. Iâm not asking you to score higher than me. Iâll consider that youâve won if you score 10 points, and you can have this card.â
âAre you sure, Ms. Ye? I must say that Iâm not bad at this game. Ten points and Iâll win? Arenât you going too easy on me?â
The smile on Xiao Luoâs face was vibrant. Not only did he get to eat good food by partaking in this party, but he could also even win some money. For a guy like him who didnât have much cash, happiness came too suddenly.
Idiot, how is pool the same as snooker?
A condescending sneer washed over Ye Yingyingâs face, mocking Xiao Luoâs ignorance.
Although pool and snooker were both billiards, there was a big difference between them, starting with the tables. A pool table was approximately 2.5 meters long and 1.2 meters wide. A snooker table, on the other hand, was 3568mm x 1778mm. The latter was much bigger than the former, and their difficulty was not at all at the same level.
Second, defending, ball control, and strategizing were important in snooker. Those who hadnât tried the game before wouldnât have such concepts in their minds. Their minds would be blank, like a person who had never touched a basketball and was suddenly thrown into a basketball court for a game.
âIf you think Iâm going too easy on you, so be it. But if you lose, youâll have to give me something to make it fair,â said Ye Yingying.
Xiao Luo spread his hands, âIâm not as wealthy as you, Ms.Ye! I donât carry 50 grand on me!â
âI donât want money. Besides, why would I, daughter of the Ye family, be short of money?â
Xiao Luoâs expression became curious, âSo, what do you want?â
âIf you lose, bark a few times like a dog in front of everyone, and clean my heels.â Ye Yingying lifted her high heels.
Ah ha. All the guests knew what was going on here: Ye Yingying was trying to humiliate Xiao Luo.
His eyes glazed over. He never expected Ye Yingyingâs heart to be so cold. âThis is about my dignity as a man. I doubt itâs worth less than your 50 thousand, Ms. Ye.â
âThen, let me up the ante!â
Ye Yingying went all out and took off the watch she was wearing, âThis is a Swiss OMEGA series luxury watch, worth at least 50 thousand.
âYouâre playing pretty big!â
Xiao Luo pretended to be hesitant. He was already giggling in his heart. He was worried about the lack of money, and this poor thing just came offering herself to deliver him some cash.
âShow me some courage and resolution if youâre a man! Can you not be that hesitant?â Fang Shulan crossed her hands in front of her chest with a mean face.
When these words dropped, she, Ye Yingyingâs partner in crime, and all the wealthy sons and daughters spoke.
âYeah, be quick if you want to play, or just admit youâre a pussy.â
âHe must be afraid of losing. After all, he hasnât tried something as high class as snooker before.â
âBut his worries can be justified. Heâll have to bark like a dog if he loses. He canât possibly humiliate himself like that.â
Fu Jiawei smiled contemptuously. If he got this done, Chu Yue might fall for him. Thinking about his future days with a goddess beside him, he could feel the bliss in his heart.
From far away, Bai Ling said anxiously, âYoung mistress Chu, do you think Xiao Luo will agree to Ye Yingyingâs offer?â
âHmph, if he doesnât, Iâll proceed with the vilest plan in the history of humanity!â Chu Yue curled her mouth, resolving to humiliate Xiao Luo.
Vilest in history?!
Bai Ling couldnât help but shudder as she broke into a cold sweat for Xiao Luo.
At this moment, Xiao Luo craned his neck and proceeded to ask, âMs.Ye, whatâs the password to your bank card?â
What?
Everyone was stunned, as they had no clue about what Xiao Luo was doing.
Yee Yingying also looked puzzled.
Xiao Luo spread his hands and said, âHow am I supposed to take money out from this card without the password?â
Pssss
After he came out with those words, the crowd subconsciously took a deep breath as they thought, âThis guy is way too arrogant. How can he be so sure heâll win?â
Fu Jiawei, on the contrary, only dismissed a sneer as he murmured in his mind, âGames and snooker are Yingyingâs greatest hobbies. Even Uncle Da, who had played snooker at international level competitions, recognizes Yingyingâs skill. Do you want to compete with her in snooker, Xiao Luo? Donât even think of winning even if you have an extra three heads and six arms.â
Ye Yingying was so agitated she chuckled. Then, she said in a deep voice, âThe password is six ones. Win it from me if you can.â
âAll right!â
Xiao Luo strode toward the snooker table.
The guests who were initially drinking, eating snacks, and chattering shifted their positions, seeing that an intriguing snooker match was about to begin and moved forward to get a better look.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xiao Luo picked a snooker cue and weighed it in his hands. âI havenât played in a long time. Let me get the hang of it again.â
As he spoke, he bent over and thrust the white ball with his cue. His movements were rusty and stiff, and his shot lived up to everyoneâs expectations. He slipped. Almost all the thrust force from the cue was funneled to the edge of the white ball, causing it only to roll a short distance.
âHahahaâ¦â
Fang Shulan and Ye Yingyingâs friends were rolling in the aisles.
âHe canât even hit the ball! He mustâve never played before!â
âHe even boldly claimed he was good at pool just now. It seems like heâs just bluffing.â
âYeah, right, Iâve never seen such an idiot. Is he out of his mind to brag that arrogantly? I wonder how he is surviving in this world.â
From far away, Chu Yue became excited, âThat guyâs going to be barking soon! Hahaâ¦â
Bai Ling was baffled, âWhatâs wrong with Xiao Luo? He shouldnât agree if he doesnât know how to play.â But after some thought, she was a little relieved. âBut thatâs okay. At least Young Mistress Chu wonât get to use her vilest plan.â
Since Chu Yue said it was the most vicious plan in history, it was by no means an exaggeration. It would be ten times or even a hundred times crueler than this one.
