Chapter 383 - Grand Thief Mr. Pete
Yun Jian was unbothered by Liu Shiyun and Chu Xiangnan"s appearance. She was currently standing in the river with a slow stream with Jiliheng.
The river water in winter was usually icy to the point of p.r.i.c.kling pain, but this river was not even cold. Instead, it felt kind of warm to stand in the water.
"And start," Jiliheng told Yun Jian with a glimpse at her holding the bamboo.
"Mm." Yun Jian nodded at Jiliheng with a squint as she also held the sharp bamboo that could spear and kill a fish.
"Go, Yun Jian"er!" Chu Ning and others did not understand the shouts of the locals but the former waved her hand at Yun Jian and cheered for her.
Yun Jian kept her squint as her deep eyes were set on the bamboo in her grasp.
"Go, big sister!" Meiboba looked at Yun Jian gratefully and cheered for her loudly in her local language.
"Hah." Jiliheng suddenly let out a light chuckle and a smirk that did not match his age crept up to his curling lips.
Tss! Jiliheng stabbed his bamboo into the river and penetrated a fish that had been swimming.
Yun Jian narrowed her eyes and stabbed her bamboo into the river as well.
"Missed? Hahaha! She missed!" Jiliheng"s friends cackled at Yun Jian.
Yun Jian"s aim was off and her attack caught nothing.
Chu Ning and the other team members were sullen as well.
In spite of it, Yun Jian was in no hurry. There was no readable expression on her as she hung her head low.
"Heh heh!" Jiliheng laughed recklessly as he impaled his bamboo into the water several times more.
Tss, tss, tss, tss, tss! Each time he brought his bamboo down, for five consecutive times, there was a fish speared by Jiliheng. Never once did he miss.
As for Yun Jian, she made several attempts too but none caught her target.
Jiliheng"s friends were spurred by this, cheering in grandiose, "Jiliheng! Jiliheng! Jiliheng!"
"What"s up with Yun Jian!" Chu Xiangnan frowned, grumbling like he was going to replace Yun Jian and win in the next moment.
"Shut up!" Jiang Weiwei who had been quiet suddenly kicked the young man as she growled at him.
The others were shocked by her seriousness but there was a frown as they were also confused.
Jiang Weiwei was also frowning as she silently watched Yun Jian act like she was spearing the fish with all her might yet kept missing. She was doing it on purpose but why?
Not too long later, there was already a stick of fish skewered on the bamboo in Jiliheng"s grip.
Tss! Jiliheng was engrossed in fish-spearing, standing with his back facing Yun Jian and collecting another fish smoothly.
With another squint, Yun Jian retrieved her b.u.t.terfly knife from her pocket when Jiliheng was completely unguarded, sneaking to his back in a flash and landing a kick on his back to fling him to the riverbank.
While everyone witnessed the sudden change in panic, Yun Jian was already in front of Jiliheng, perching her b.u.t.terfly knife against his neck before he could react.
"Foreign one, what are you doing! You can"t win the fish-spearing contest. What do you want to do to Jiliheng!" The boys yelled immediately.
Chu Xiangnan and the rest of the squad were also befuddled.
"Yun Jian, what are you doing? We"ll admit defeat if we lose. It"s not like we can"t afford to…" Chu Xiangnan commented.
Yun Jian paid no heed to them.
She maintained her original position with narrowing eyes, pushing the b.u.t.terfly knife a little closer to Jiliheng"s neck.
"Do you think I can"t recognize you with this disguise? Our infamous Grand Thief Mr. Pete!" Yun Jian said grinning, looking at Jiliheng.
Jiliheng felt his heart stutter at that.
