Chapter 491: Chapter 491: Let’s Do Something Exciting
“Jinyi!” Shen Yan frantically tried to stop her.
“Shen Yan, you have to learn to trust me.” Yan Jinyi said confidently, “I bet I win.”
Bai Moliang felt that Huo Xishen had married a dimwit.
He watched Yan Jinyi sign her name with mockery and contempt in his eyes, thinking to himself that she could never compare to his younger sister, Bai Yuxi.
The competition officially began. There were a total of twelve participants. Apart from Yan Jinyi, there were scions who were good in archery, as well as professional archers.
The people there all seemed very excited as they were waiting to see Yan Jinyi make a fool out of herself.
Those seated at the front performed well, the most outstanding of whom was a Eurasian man who was also a professional archer.
When it was Yan Jinyi’s turn, the people present wanted to take their cell phones to film the next scene but unfortunately, they were prohibited from doing so, in accordance with the rules.
“Jinyi, are you really sure you can do it?” Shen Yan asked worriedly.
Yan Jinyi winked at her and stretched her back. “Shen Yan, just wait for my victory.”
The majority of the people there were wealthy heirs and heiresses. The big bosses and wives of wealthy men who were there the last time were absent today. Otherwise, they would have definitely placed their bets on Yan Jinyi.
Yan Jinyi was considered young among the crowd that was present but her composure and fearlessness made her stand out from the frivolous and pompous heirs of wealthy families.
She casually picked up the bow and arrow and weighed them in her hand. “You don’t have anything heavier than this?”
The staff member actually despised her too but he had no choice except to be polite and respectful to her due to her status. “Second Young Mistress Huo, this bow is strictly for ladies, it’s considered the heaviest one of its class. You…”
“I told you to bring me a heavier one. Cut the crap. Isn’t your service motto to prioritize the requests of customers?” Yan Jinyi chided with a frown.
The gossipy heirs and heiresses began mocking her again. “She’s probably gotten really complacent and arrogant after defeating those guys the last time she was here. But archery is different from fighting.”
“I just think you guys are exaggerating, I don’t believe she is really that good.”
“Just wait and see. Does this woman have any common sense or not? The bow is too heavy, I doubt she can even pull the string later.”
There were more and more voices of mockery but Yan Jinyi did not waver and instead stood still proudly with confidence.
The staff member soon returned with another beautiful bow that was much heavier than the one Yan Jinyi picked up just now.
She casually drew an arrow and put it on the string. Just as she was about to pull it, she suddenly stopped.
Yan Jinyi cleared her throat and said, “If I win, I want all of you to call me Queen.”
“Why?”
“You’re so arrogant, huh?”
“Even Mr. Huo dislikes you, do you really think you’re such a big deal?”
Everyone began clapping back at her in disgruntlement.
Yan Jinyi raised her eyebrows and smirked. “Can’t afford to lose? Or are you guys afraid?”
“What a joke, why would we be afraid? Fine, I agree. Hmph, if you can win I will not only call you Queen, I will become your slave too.”
“Me too!”
“I’ll bet you’ll lose!”
‘A bunch of fools.’
Yan Jinyi said with great arrogance, “I’ll hold you to your word. Shall we do something exciting?”
She pointed to the arrow target and said, “Let’s do this blindfolded, I’ll listen to the sound to distinguish the position of the target. Those who strike bull’s eye the most number of times will win.”
As soon as she said that, everyone stared at Yan Jinyi like she was a fool.
‘Distinguish the position of the target by sound?’
‘Does she really take herself to be the heroic female protagonist of a martial arts novel?’
‘She’s not an expert and yet she wants to pull such a trick. How ridiculous.’
