Chapter 680 Emotional
After enjoying the hotpot, the group went to a secluded area of the Eastern Garden to enjoy some archery. The archery went really well as the group started showing off their archery skills. Of course, Lily and Zhou Jingren just watched from the sidelines. Having a good conversation over some very nice chocolate drink.
"Go Jichen was top when he trained in the security company." Zhou Jingren said. "He might act silly at times but he is extremely good at his job."
"Of course, he is good. He has a good boss, he needs to step up his game or he will be replaced." Lily chuckled. "Speaking of your security company," she made a deliberate pause as she eyed Bei Tian who started hitting the bullseye one by one. "I am surprised that the media is not yet aware of what is happening behind the scene."
"I already scheduled a meeting with this woman." He said "People are unaware that you will be involved in this matter. So… your presence is going to be a surprise. But don't worry, I will let you handle everything."
"Jingren… she can't just threaten us or the company." Lily said. "You know that." In the industry that they were in, being feared was always better than being loved. Of course, this was something that Lilian taught Lily. "This woman's case might not be strong. However, it is enough to shake the reputation of Zhou Jingren's company and Lily's name. After all, Lily was known for advocating women's rights.
A clash between her advocacy and business might be inevitable soon. Of course, she was already prepared for this. She was only waiting for those people to show themselves.
"I have a meeting tomorrow. With the petroleum company." Lily said.
"Did you already make your decision?"
"No. They are planning to discuss their company with us. I mean… I believe they want to convince me and the executives to make them one of our subsidiaries. I mean, who does that? I can understand if their company is on the verge of bankruptcy. But this?"
"What is stopping you?"
"I don't know…" She shrugged. "Instinct."
Zhou Jingren smiled. However, before he could say something, Bei Tian's voice echoed. Prompting them to look at the group.
"If you are so good then let's bet! Just you and me!"
"Why are you being a child?" Yang Mi asked, irritated. "You lost. It's that simple."
"Then… bet with me!"
"Mr. Bei is really hilarious! Do you think I have millions of dollars to bet with you? I am working hard for my money!"
"Then let's bet something else!"
"Alright! If you lose you will become my servant for a day!" Yang Mi said. "You will do everything that I want! Clean my room and bathroom! Everything!"
"Aiya… you think I don't know how to clean a bathroom?" He countered smugly. "If I win… you marry this bloke right here." He pointed at Jichen.
"Oi Bei Tian… I'm not a bloke."
"Why would I marry someone I don't like?" Yang Mi folded her arms across her chest.
"Then don't lose." Bei Tian said. "That simple!"
Zhou Jingren instantly shook his head. He leaned towards Lily and lowered his voice. "If you don't want Yang Mi to dig her own grave, you should tell her not to do this bet."
"Why? Bei Tian lost." Lily shrugged before she smiled. "Unless he is baiting Yang Mi?" She raised an eyebrow.
"I told you. Bei Tian is better than me in martial arts and guns." Why else would his adoptive father make Bei Tian his right hand man? "Do you really think Yang Mi can beat him in archery?"
"Yang Mi is very good too."
"Do you really want her to marry Jichen?"
A mischievous smirk hung on Lily's lips. "Of course not." She widened her eyes, feigning her emotions. "Why would you even think that? I would never put Yang Mi in that situation!"
Zhou Jingren chuckled in response before he turned towards their friends.
"Well… maybe not marry?" Go Jichen chimed in. "Maybe a date!"
"I won't date you!"
Go Jichen's face instantly turned scarlet. "And you think I would want to marry you? Dream on woman…dream on!"
"You—" Yang Mi clenched her fist. She turned towards Lily, only to see her smiling towards her direction. Sighing, she looked at Bei Tian again. "Alright. A date then."
"One week of dating!" Bei Tian said. "This is only fair. This young master is rich and talented. I am a very expensive servant! And cleaning a toilet is not as easy as you think."
Seeing the logic in Bei Tian's words, Yang Mi nodded. She would win anyway. Why think about losing against this clown? "What kind of game do you want to do?"
"Emotions." Bei Tian's words made Yang Mi frown. "I told you… we shoot using our emotions. "
"How are we going to do that?" Yang Mi asked, confused. Until now, she could not figure out how to shoot with her emotions. Was she supposed to say I love you to the bow before shooting? Maybe shout something emotional?
Emotional.
Yang Mi was never one. So…. How was she going to use her emotions to shoot?
"Blindfold you dummy!" Rolling his eyes, Bei Tian snickered. "Blindfold Archery!"
A snort instantly left Yang Mi's mouth. Blindfold? Yeah, right. "Alright!"
"Good! Now… we need witnesses. We can't just bet with no witnesses, alright? I don't want you crying and saying that this bet did not happen once you lose."
Yang Mi rolled her eyes in response. "I'm not going to lose but yeah… we can ask the President to become the witness. "
"Or we can just record your words?" Qin Yuanfeng suggested as he turned his head towards Lily and Zhou Jingren who were whispering sweet nothings to one another. "Are we really going to disturb them?"
"I second that!" Secretary Go said excitedly. As someone who looked up to both Zhou Jingren and Bei Tian, he was very familiar with his skills.
"Then… let's do it!" Yang Mi said almost immediately. She could not wait to make this smug Bei Tian her servant!
