Chapter 344: State Your Terms
Mu Donglin asked, “Did you sleep well last night?”
Li Beinian immediately had the feeling of Mu Xichen pressing her down. She turned away in guilt and pretended to be calm. “Quite well.”
She immediately thought of something and asked, “Why did you call me last night? Was there something wrong?”
“It’s nothing. I just wanted to hear your voice.” Mu Donglin did not lower his voice or tried to conceal it.
Li Beinian felt even more uncomfortable. The feeling of cheating was weighing down on her.
She quickly found a shooting booth and then turned back.
Lin Kerou did not seem to be in a good mood. She had a forced smile and was trying to remain reluctant.
Li Meng supported her and looked at Li Beinian in even more annoyance.
For some reason, Li Beinian felt much more relaxed after that.
In her past life, Lin Kerou was always the one torturing her.
Now, the tables had turned and Li Beinian could walk with her head held high.
Soon, Mo Shengyun came over with two other men.
When Gu Mingye saw Li Beinian, he warmly greeted her. “Hey. Long time no see.”
“You’re here too?” Li Beinian raised her eyebrow. “I didn’t see you yesterday.”
“That’s true. I was grilling yesterday, so I didn’t go over to say hi.” Gu Mingye walked to Li Beinian’s side and asked, “Do you know how to do it?”
“I guess.” Li Beinian greeted Mo Shengyun. “Come over, I will teach you.”
Mo Shengyun skipped over happily and put on her gla.s.ses with Li Beinian.
When Li Beinian said she was going to teach her, she was serious.
She taught seriously and Mo Shengyun listened carefully.
She seemed to be quite professional, and Li Meng did not find it pleasing to the eye. “Just don’t hit her in the face. Her brother was from the military. Does she even need you to teach her?”
Li Beinian glanced at her with a smile. She lifted the air rifle in her hand and looked straight ahead.
Bam!
It hit the bullseye!
Li Meng was stunned.
Mo Shengyun’s eyes lit up. “Oh my G.o.d! You’re awesome!”
“I know the basics.”
Mu Donglin was also surprised. “Did you learn it when you were a kid?”
“Yes.” Li Beinian looked ahead and aimed at the target. “When I was a child, I grew up in my G.o.dfather and G.o.dmother’s house. We were poor and did not have much money, but we were quite greedy. As a result, I always went to the gambling dens with my brother to mingle with the adults.”
Bam!
She hit another target and received nine points.
“The adults played many games. Shooting was just one of them.”
She had experienced racing, shooting, boxing, snake fighting, and all sorts of gambling.
She was smart and learned them very quickly.
She was bullied when she was younger, but when she grew up, she became well-known.
At that time, she was called Chi Beinian.
“How about we have a compet.i.tion, then?” Mo Shengyun asked. “You’re strong. My brother and Ah Ye are skillful too. Young Master Mu, do you know how to shoot?”
Hearing that, Mu Donglin’s face darkened.
Gu Mingye laughed. “Sheng’er, what are you saying? Young Master Mu is a man.”
Li Beinian was speechless.
Mu Xichen glanced sideways and smiled slightly.
Mu Donglin raised his gun and aimed at the target.
Bam!
It slightly deviated from the red spot, but it was close enough.
“I can compete,” Mu Donglin said to Gu Mingye. “State your terms.”
Gu Mingye was startled. “You’re competing with me.”
“Yes. Ten tries. The highest score wins.” Mu Donglin looked at Mu Xichen. “He’s your man. If he loses, it’s on you.”
“Hey, that’s not fair!” Mo Shengyun retorted. “How can Ah Ye’s skills compare to my brother’s?”
Mu Donglin looked at Mu Xichen blankly. “What do you think?”
Mu Xichen remained calm. “Sure. Let’s talk about the terms.”
“I remember that your grandfather has a farm and always wanted you to go back to manage it, right?” Mu Donglin looked at him and did not conceal his intentions. “If you lose, you will go back to the farm and never come back to Guang City again.”
