Chapter 616: Go up Together
Yang Ming was holding a teddy bear, but he had been thinking about the identity of the tracker. This person’s identity wasn’t simple. Yang Ming worked hard to remember the tracker’s appearance, but he still couldn’t identify any unique feature.
The programs on entertainment street today were obviously a little more than yesterday. Yesterday was the First Day of Chinese New Year. There might be some vendors who wanted to take a break so they didn’t open up their stalls, but they were all out opening their businesses today.
The group continued to move forward. They came to the simulated golf game’s playground. Wang Xiaoyan was obviously very interested in this. Just now, she saw Chen Mengyan getting a grand prize. She admired Chen Mengyan, but at the same time, it sparked her eagerness to win. She also wanted to get a grand prize to show her ability.
In the end, Wang Xiaoyan was also an 18-year-old girl. She wasn’t as cold as she seemed. Her portrayal on the surface was entirely due to her aversion to Li Yixun.
When he noticed that Wang Xiaoyan liked it, Yang Ming and the party stopped. Chen Mengyan also handed over several game coins and planned to play the game. However, Chen Mengyan wasn’t quite proficient in such a skilled game.
The rules of the game were simple. There were four rows of holes in front of the player. There were eight holes in each row, and there was space for balls between the holes. The first row of holes was all red. In the second row, two of the holes were blue while the others were red. In the third row, there were two holes that were yellow and the rest were red. The fourth row was also full of red holes.
Each player had only three chances to throw the ball. As long as two balls scored two holes of different colors, they could get a prize. If the three balls scored in three different colored holes, then they could get the grand prize.
However, this possibility was tiny. It was relatively easy to score two different colored holes, but it was a bit difficult to score holes in three different colors!
Because the yellow and blue holes were in a column, it was difficult unless the player could control the force and the ball’s trajectory. Therefore, there were a lot of people who scored two goals, but there were fewer players who scored three goals.
Chen Mengyan spent a long time, but she only hit two holes of different colors. She had used too much strength on the third ball and it was thrown into the last red hole.
The gift she received was a cell phone flashlight. Compared to the price of five game coins, it was obviously a loss. However, she played the game mostly for fun. She wouldn’t play this game if she was particular about the value of the prize.
However, Wang Xiaoyan’s performance was great. With three balls, she actually hit three different colored holes. Li Yixun praised her flirtatiously by the side instead.
This time, Wang Xiaoyan also got a big plush toy, which evened out with Chen Mengyan.
Yang Ming noticed a faint smile at Wang Xiaoyan’s indifferent facial expression. It turns out that this little girl actually acted out as such! Yang Ming thought so in his heart.
Finally, the last moment had come. Yang Ming was very reluctant to face it, but he still had to face it! Their group came to the registration site for rock climbing.
Looking at Chen Mengyan’s eager gaze, Yang Ming had to force himself to go.
“Little Yan, how about I get the grand prize for you?” Li Yixun said, “My rock climbing skills are good!”
“There is no need for it. I want to do it myself.” Wang Xiaoyan shook her head. Regardless of what Li Yixun said, she ran to register herself. Li Yixun quickly followed behind her.
Seeing that Wang Xiaoyan had signed up, Li Yixun naturally refused to show his weakness and signed up as well. Although most of the rock climbers were men, there were also a few couples climbing together.
Therefore, Wang Xiaoyan didn’t appear to be awkward when registering. However, since Wang Xiaoyan had signed up, Chen Mengyan was also somewhat tempted. She hesitated for a moment and said to Yang Ming, “I want to play, too…”
“This… how about no? It’s dangerous. I’m afraid you would fall.” Yang Ming said with some concern.
“You see? Wang Xiaoyan has signed up. It should be fine!” Chen Mengyan insisted.
“That is fine but you must be careful.” Yang Ming noticed that Chen Mengyan insisted, and he didn’t say anything. The safety measures for rock climbing were done well. Even if she fell, there would be no problem. So, Yang Ming also agreed to sign up with Chen Mengyan.
This time, Yang Ming used his real name to participate in the game. On one hand, Chen Mengyan was looking at it beside him and he couldn’t fabricate it. On the other hand, as long as the name was different from yesterday’s name, it should be fine.
After the organizer told Yang Ming about the safety regulations and precautions, they gave a set of protective gear for each person. He didn’t recognize Yang Ming. After all, there were too many customers to serve every day. People came and went at the same time. Besides, there were many people who looked similar, and Yang Ming had deliberately dressed up. It was normal for him not to recognize Yang Ming.
For Chen Mengyan, it was obviously her first time rock climbing. She was somewhat nervous as she witnessed the people in front of her fall down. When it was her turn, she became a little timid. “Yang Ming, I’m a little scared!”
“Hehe, if you are afraid, then don’t go up,” Yang Ming advised.
“I think better not. Fleeing at the scene is shameful!” Chen Mengyan shook her head.
“Don’t worry. No one will laugh at you. You’re a girl.” Yang Ming comforted her.
Chen Mengyan hesitated, took a deep breath and said, “Can you protect me from below?”
“Yes, no problem.” It was child’s play for Yang Ming to climb it. Although he couldn’t catch up with Spider-Man, it was almost the same.
During rock climbing, each player was divided into fixed climbing routes. Before a person came down, the people following weren’t allowed to climb immediately.
It was to prevent any risk and danger! Otherwise, if the person above fell, wouldn’t he smash into the person below? With that, it would be strange if there were no injuries!
However, Yang Ming requested from the organizers to allow him to follow Chen Mengyan at the bottom for rock climbing! At first, the organizers didn’t agree. After all, it was a bit too dangerous to do so.
However, the organizer agreed after Yang Ming stated several times that it would be at his own risk. As they were signing the agreement, there was a lawyer nearby to follow the whole process. Yang Ming just added one statement in the agreement. In this way, even if Yang Ming was exposed to danger, it had nothing to do with the organizer!
Just now, after the organizers said there was danger with Yang Ming doing so, Chen Mengyan had changed her words because she didn’t want Yang Ming to do it. But, Yang Ming insisted that he must climb behind Chen Mengyan and stated that he was doing it at his own risk!
This made Chen Mengyan feel very touched! There was a saying that a husband and wife are birds in the same forest. Yang Ming wasn’t her husband yet and he could ignore his own safety for her safety. How could Chen Mengyan not be touched by it?
Li Yixun saw Yang Ming doing this and wanted to copy Yang Ming, but he thought that his technique wasn’t good. Even if he made this request, Wang Xiaoyan wouldn’t agree so he had to shut up.
Chen Mengyan, Wang Xiaoyan, and Li Yixun were rock climbing at the same time. Yang Ming was behind Chen Mengyan just in case Chen Mengyan had an accident!
In the beginning, Chen Mengyan still thought that rock climbing was just like this. It was still very simple. But the more she climbed up, the more powerless she felt. Not only was her strength diminishing, but she was also worried that she would fall and slam onto Yang Ming. Chen Mengyan couldn’t help but have sweat dripping from her forehead.
Even though Li Yixun was a man, he wasn’t necessarily better than Chen Mengyan. Although he hadn’t climbed much, he had broken into a cold sweat already. However, Wang Xiaoyan wasn’t having much of a hard time. Although her climbing speed wasn’t fast, each of her steps was solid and steady.
Finally, Li Yixun couldn’t hold it anymore and fell down at once. Fortunately, what awaited him at the bottom was an air cushion, which helped him avoid physical damage.
When Li Yixun fell down, Chen Mengyan couldn’t hold on as well. She glanced at Li Yixun’s miserable condition, and her hand slipped. She almost couldn’t grab on! She couldn’t help but be shocked. “Yang Ming, quickly get out of the way. I can’t do it. I can’t hold it…”
“Come on, Mengyan. You would be at the top right away!” Yang Ming said without worry.
“Yang Ming, I’m about to fall down. You should quickly dodge!” Chen Mengyan saw that Yang Ming wasn’t avoiding her and she went into a panic. The sweat on her forehead was doubled.
“If I dodge, what would you do?” Yang Ming smiled and said, “Mengyan, if you can’t hold on, then just come down!”
“Aiya…Yang Ming, I’m serious with you… At this moment, this isn’t the time for you to be a hero… If I fall, I will definitely slam onto you!” Chen Mengyan was too anxious. She was angry and moved at the same time, but the strength of her hands was getting weaker. She couldn’t hold on anymore…
