Chapter 391: Chapter 392 Adding A Prize
“So I can’t let you go with me,” I squeezed Chu Yuan’s face and smiled, “Don’t worry too much. At most, they would just want to make fun of me for having no hunting experience. I’m not scared of losing face. If it is really dangerous, I will just run. Even if I can’t outrun wolves, I can still climb trees. You will only become my burden if you follow me. You have never used a gun before, and you’ve also never hunted anything in the past. You’ve never even seen a wolf. It can become chaotic easily if there are too many people. If that happens, who do you want me to take care of first?”
Chu Yuan belonged to the kind of dummy who could trip over on the flat ground. Shu Tong was a Natural Airhead who was not much better than Chu Yuan, and she also had a history of pushing me into a fish pond. Liusu had a habit of hiding behind me when there was trouble, and she also liked to cause trouble to me. Fortunately, all those three girls knew that they would only cause trouble to me, so after hearing what I said, they all fell silent.
Dong Xiaoye, on the other hand, was stretching her arms, doing the warm-up exercise. She sneered at me when she heard what I said, “Have you ever hunted wild wolves before? And about using a gun? You have fired a gun before doesn’t mean that you know how to use a gun. I have no objection to not letting them follow you, but I have to go with you. I am the only one who knows how to use all types of guns, not to mention that I’m much stronger than them.”
“You are not allowed to go with me either.”
“Why?! ”
“You’re right. Having fired a gun before and knowing how to use a gun are two concepts, but using a gun during the day and shooting a gun after being drunk at night are also two concepts. Moreover, this is not the shooting training ground you are familiar with. The wolves are not unmoving targets.” My tone gradually softened and I looked at Dong Xiaoye with gratitude, “Sister Xiaoye, I know you want to protect me, but don’t you think that it is very humiliating to a man to always be protected by a woman? I mean, I would rather be eaten by a wolf than being protected by a woman…”
Dong Xiaoye’s pretty face flushed, “Bah! No wolf wants to eat a shameless man like you. Who said that I want to protect you? I just can’t stand those people!”
With such a reaction, even Chu Yuan didn’t believe her, let alone Liusu and Shu Tong…
As soon as we came out, we saw Guo Xiang and Xingyu walking towards us. “Lao Guo, are you going to take Xingyu with you?”
Guo Xiang’s face was grave; even though he was smiling, there wasn’t any joy in his smile, “Xiao Nan, can I speak to you alone for a few minutes.”
I nodded and followed him. Chu Yuan wanted to follow me, but she was stopped by Xingyu.
“I won’t ask you how you know the boss of Moon Valley. I don’t have the time and the mood now. But you need to tell me first why you want to accept Liu Xiaosheng’s invitation. Can’t you tell that he has an ulterior motive?”
I smiled bitterly and said, “I can see it, but I can’t refuse it. You must have figured out by now that that Shu Tong and I are…”
“You two are acting. Xingyu has called Miss Xiao secretly just now. Your younger sister has told Miss Xiao about it.” Before I could finish, Guo Xiang interrupted me and said.
He seemed to find it both very amusing and vexing, “I seriously don’t know what you are thinking. The matters between you and the Third Lady have already caused many rumors in the city. There are a lot of discussions about what your relationship with the Third Lady is. However, you don’t seem to care about it at all. You actually spent all your time impersonating other people’s boyfriend. I… I don’t even know what to say to you.”
Maybe it was indeed very ridiculous at first, but now, it mattered to the feelings of a dying old woman, as well as her love for her granddaughter… I didn’t argue with Guo Xiang, but shook my head and asked, “I’ll tell you the story behind it when I have time in the future, but why are you here?”
“This should be my question.” Guo Xiang sighed and said solemnly, “Xiao Nan, listen carefully. The wolf hunting tonight should be a show that Liu Xiaosheng planned for me. It was just because we happened to meet you here that he changed his target. You should know how much he dislikes me, right? Because of me, the marriage between the Liu family and the Zhang family was ruined. I don’t know what his plan is, but I know that it is definitely not something good. So you have to be careful.”
Wolf hunting was a show he prepared for Guo Xiang? Just when I wanted to ask more in detail, I saw Liu Xiaosheng walking towards us with Li Song and the two brothers of the Zhang family. It was no longer convenient for Guo Xiang to say anything, so he only gave me a meaningful look, reminding me to be extra careful.
Originally, I thought that there would be a pack of wild wolves, but after Liu Xiaosheng told me with a smile that he had just helped Manager Tian to release the wolf into the hunting park surrounded by the electric fence from the cage, I realised that it was just one wolf.
Probably thinking that I would not be scared by one wolf, he even told me that it was a fierce adult wolf. Although I was not scared, the few girls that were with me were clearly even more worried.
“There are two hunters, but there is only one prey. It seems a bit boring, so shall we add some prizes to make it more interesting?”
No wonder people often say that comparing with other people only leads to extreme anger. We were both wearing the same camouflage uniform, but Liu Xiaosheng looked very charming after he put on the camouflage uniform, and I looked like a village farmer when I put it on.
Fortunately, except for Li Song, the other girls showed disdainful expressions when looking at Liu Xiaosheng, which made me feel a little comfort in my heart. Alas, having external beauty was not enough, only with internal beauty would it make one person truly attractive.
“Only two hunters?” I looked at the two brothers of the Zhang family and said, “Mr. Zhang, are you not joining us?”
“Me?” Zhang Mingjie shook his head hurriedly. For some reason, he was very scared. He said with a stiff smile, “Mr. Chu, you are really funny. Do I look like someone who is capable of hunting a wolf? I’m just here to accompany Mr. Zhang today.”
Zhang Mingjie’s reply was very suspicious. What were they planning? Why would Liu Xiaosheng not bring anyone to help him?
“Ms. Li, you are not joining us either?” I couldn’t help but ask Li Song.
“He doesn’t want me to join…”
“Did Mr. Chu bring his girlfriend? Since he didn’t, what would it make me look like if I brought you with me?” Liu Xiaosheng cut off Li Song in a manly manner. Although Li Song was a bit unwilling to give up, she was captured by the charm of Liu Xiaosheng like a foolish fan girl.
So it was a duel? Interesting. All men liked to compare with each other. Liu Xiaosheng had more money than me and was more handsome than me, but I really wanted to know how much better he was than me in a primitive environment.
“I don’t know what prizes Mr. Liu likes to add?”
“If I killed the wolf first, then I hope Mr. Chu would give Mr. Zhang a chance to invite Miss. Cheng to dinner. What do you think?”
Zhang Mingjie’s complex expressions of surprise and fear told me that he also didn’t expect Liu Xiaosheng’s proposal. Chu Yuan almost clapped her hands in applause, but was stopped by my cold eyes. Dong Xiaoye and Shu Tong were both furious. However, Liusu was unusually calm.
Suppressing the anger in my heart, I smiled coldly, “Mr. Liu, this joke is not funny…”
“I’m not joking. I’m serious.” The calmer Liu Xiaosheng was, the more it proved that he wanted to provoke me and expose my relationship with Liusu. I knew his intention, but I didn’t know how to deal with it.
To Father Shu and Mother Shu, this request wasn’t too much. After all, in their eyes, Liusu and I were just colleagues. Why should I stop other men from pursuing her, right?
“Okay,” Everyone was stunned as soon as I said this. Probably Liusu also didn’t understand why I would agree, “In this case, I also like to add a small prize to it. In fact, I don’t think Mr. Zhang is a good match for Liusu. On the other hand, he and Miss Li look like a perfect match. So if I killed the wolf first, I hope Miss. Li can give Mr. Zhang a kiss in front of Mr. Liu, what do you think? Hehe, I’m quite a boring person. I like to play this kind of punishing game a lot.”
Screw this guy. I knew Li Song was innocent, but Liusu was also innocent. If she wanted to blame, then blame herself for finding the wrong boyfriend. I was not a gentleman, I was just an ordinary man. This damn guy wanted to ruin my relationship with Liusu, then I would ruin his!
