Chapter 414: We Are Brothers
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Lin Weiwei was so angry that she was amused.
“Do I look that easy to you?”
“That’s not true!”
Wang Yan laughed and said, “I only wanted to play with you because I love you…”
“Huff!”
Everyone was cheering loudly. It was obvious that they often went under the overpass to watch crosstalk.
San Wan was also giggling. She quietly looked at Lin Weiwei and mischievously winked.
Ping Zhi put down her drink and sneered, “Well, I don’t! Don’t talk nonsense. Come on, show me something worthy. Otherwise, I had no interest in torturing a noob.”
Oh, what a crazy person!
Wang Yan looked indignant on the surface, but in fact, he was very cautious. He quietly observed the back of Lin Weiwei’s hand.
When playing billiards, one had to rub talcum powder on it. It would leave a mark on the palm of the hand unless one was wearing those two-finger gloves. However, people who knew a little bit about the game would not choose to wear gloves, which would affect the feel of the hand.
Wang Yan had a little bit of theoretical knowledge about this game.
After repeated observation and confirmation, the conclusion was that Lin Weiwei had no experience.
Wang Yan was confident.
Ping Zhi was definitely a newbie who was not interested in billiards. A player like that was usually clueless. She would think that she could kill the master with a random punch…
She was at most a little stronger than me, but I’m strong. I can make miracles with my strength!
After making up his mind, he decided to take a bet.
“Okay, what do you want to bet on? I’ll play with you!”
He leaned against the table with his arms crossed. He made a posture that was very elegant.
Lin Weiwei did not have the intention to get up. She crossed her legs and leaned back.
“You kept calling me Ping Zhi, as if we were close… If you lose, you shall call me Your Majesty!”
What, that’s a big bet!
Wang Yan’s face turned black, “Why are you so stupid? Can’t you bet on something like treating you to a meal, gifts, and jewelry?”
“Tch! Losing money wouldn’t hurt you, why would I bet on those? Are you up for it or not!”
Lin Weiwei scoffed at Wang Yan’s suggestion, and her attitude was firm.
“Okay! Let’s bet on this!”
“Wang Yan, don’t be a coward!”
“Right, let’s bet with her!”
The group of people who were not afraid of trouble immediately started to jeer.
Needless to say, Wang Yan followed his heart.
Last time, He Miaomiao had tricked him and he was trying to avoid calling her “Her Highness” until now. That was a painful lesson.
Now that he heard the same bet, Wang Yan was immediately reminded of that, and he had a bad feeling.
Was he going to be tricked again?!
It didn’t make any sense…
This time, it was Wang Yan himself who picked a weak opponent!
After thinking for a while, the cunning Wang Yan rolled his eyes and asked tentatively, “What if you lose?”
“Tell me!”
Lin Weiwei was only heroic for half a second, and then she immediately added, “You can’t go too far. We have to be equal!”
Her little expression was a little nervous, and a little unconvinced of her recklessness.
It was obvious that she didn’t have much confidence!
Lv Yichen and the others were discouraged.
Alright, the rookies were pecking each other. A long-lasting battle was definitely possible!
On the other hand, Wang Yan was completely relieved and laughed out loud.
“Hah! Alright! If you lose, you’ll have to block the wine for me throughout the entire night.”
As long as I say “Ping Zhi, go”, no matter who came to toast, you would have to rush over and shout, “White Horse Lin Ping Zhi is here. Who dares to be impudent?”
“Then, you would accept the toast on my behalf.”
“This would only apply for tonight.”
“How about it, we’re equal!”
Equal my foot!
Lv Yichen and the others were stunned and raised their thumbs up. “Damn, you are good at this!”
The girls were even more amused. Just thinking about it was enough to make them laugh.
They had never seen such a hooligan as Wang Yan.
Lin Weiwei was so livid that her face turned green. She gritted her teeth and said, “Good, you’re good… How many rounds would determine the winner?”
Wang Yan remained cautious. He raised three fingers and said, “Two out of three rounds. I don’t want you to get lucky and win one round.”
“Okay, come on, kick-off!”
Lin Weiwei didn’t bother to say anything to Wang Yan. She just sat there with a cold face.
Wang Yan wanted to give in modestly, but when he thought of his actual level, he decided not to pretend anymore.
Who cared about reputation?
How could it be more important than winning the game and teasing Ping Zhi!
Rubbing his hands, he picked up the short cue stick, he gave a quick glance and hit the white ball with all of his might.
Bang!
With a loud sound, the billiard balls scattered, and they rolled everywhere like a flower.
Having strength could create miracles. The balls rolled around randomly, and three balls fell into his pocket. Moreover, the position of the white ball wasn’t bad.
“Yo, Wang Yan, you’re good. You’ve improved a lot compared to just now!”
Lv Yichen and the others were very surprised and started to flatter him.
Wang Yan smiled smugly and started to pick a ball.
The previous game wasn’t played for nothing. Wang Yan was already familiar with this thing.
Actually, billiards could be easily understood as a small geometry game. Corner cut, refraction point, angle of incidence, angle of reflection… The basic rules were extremely simple.
Calculation angle + aiming + stability of the shot = goal.
For any adult with an average IQ, it was very easy to determine where to hit the ball. The only difficult thing was the correct and stable shot.
That required good coordination of the body, as well as the correct posture and stable exertion of force.
Wang Yan had 79 points of all attributes. With a balanced batch, he wouldn’t be bad at any sports games.
Although he did not even understand the correct posture of the pole, he could play dirty…
Wang Yan stretched his arms and took out a pole from under the billiard table. He put it on the table with a serious expression.
“Oh my god!”
Everyone slapped their foreheads and sincerely admired Wang Yan.
“Was it necessary for you to do that?” The girls said.
“He’s about to get serious!” The boys cheered.
“Agile mindset, sharp angle, good at avoiding weaknesses, not bothered with small details, he’s good for big things, Wang Yan is awesome!”
That was fawner Lv.
Wang Yan did not care about anything. He was focused on aiming and carefully pushed…
PA!
The white ball lightly collided with the other balls. The angle was correct and the strength was moderate. The balls that were hit steadily fell into the pocket.
Yes!
That was it!
Wang Yan was happy. He raised his eyebrows at Lin Weiwei smugly, “Ping Zhi, are you surprised?”
Lin Weiwei gave him a thumbs up. She was sincerely convinced, “Amazing!”
She wasn’t really smiling and it was a little strange.
San Wan was clapping like a seal, “Wang Yan is great! You’re so smart!”
“Then look!”
Wang Yan was very pleased with himself. He continued to aim for the next ball.
To be fair, Wang Yan made the right choice.
The biggest problem for beginners was that they did not have a stable stance, resulting in uneven force and a slanted shot.
By using the claw-shaped stance that the billiard hall had prepared for themselves and hitting the ball with one hand, they could avoid their weaknesses to the greatest extent and exert force stably.
Although they could not add rotation, beginners themselves need not think too much.
One-shot could break ten thousand methods.
There was no other strategy that could reflect wisdom more than this.
Pa, PA!
There were two crisp sounds again. Two close-range balls were successively cleared by Wang Yan. There were only three balls left on the table. Wang Yan was only halfway from winning the first round.
The remaining balls were more difficult. Wang Yan thought about it and tried his best to play defense.
He tried his best to stick the white ball to the bottom of the pool.
He was lucky and achieved his strategic goal perfectly.
After putting away his cue stick, Wang Yan happily sat in the rest area and raised his hand to high-five San Wan.
“How was it? Didn’t your boyfriend looked handsome while playing?”
“You did!”
San Wan pursed her lips and smiled. He glanced at Lin Weiwei and suddenly covered his mouth and laughed, “That was great…”
What was going on?
Wang Yan was all smiles and subconsciously looked at Lin Weiwei.
Ping Zhi put down her cup, stood up calmly, and reached out her hands toward her brother.
Lin Baizhou obediently handed over the cue stick and took a step back.
Until now, everything seemed normal.
Then, the scene started to change.
Lin Weiwei held the end of the cue stick with one hand, waved it twice, and then pulled it back to her eyes. She took a glance, nodded, and then walked to the table casually.
Eh? What great strength…
Wang Yan suddenly realized that something was wrong.
A lady could hold the end of the cue stick steadily with one hand, and her movements were very skillful. It was a bit cool…
Looking cool did not mean strong, but in most cases, the player who could show off on the court was not too weak.
Could it be…
Before Wang Yan could think further, Lin Weiwei put her four fingers on the side of the ball table, gently held the cue stick, bent down, and waved her hand casually…
Bang!
Dong!
A ball was pocketed with a crisp sound.
Wang Yan’s so-called defense was practically useless.
Then, the performance began.
The ball was struck to the left and fell into the pocket.
With a top spin shot, the ball moved into position and swayed out of the angle.
The low club stuffed the right side and the balls fell into the pocket. The cue ball knocked open two stuck-on balls.
Bang bang bang bang!
Wang Yan’s eyelids had just begun to jump. Before he could finish, the table was empty.
All the balls were sink with a single shot.
Lin Weiwei strolled back, and when she passed San Wan, she raised her right hand.
Liu Li jumped up excitedly and high-fived her.
PA!
It was as if she had hit Wang Yan in the face.
Wang Yan was looking back and forth between the billiard table and Lin Weiwei, then he looked at Little Liu Li…
What!
Was I being played?!
The girls looked at Wang Yan’s dumbfounded face, hugged each other, and laughed until they were holding their stomachs. He Luoluo was also an accomplice, jumping up and down and shouting at the employee, “Arrange the balls!”
Mina was full of vitality as she encouraged Wang Yan, “You have to work harder for the next round!”
Crap!
Was this something that could be solved with cheering?!
Wang Yan was depressed and his face darkened. He glared at Lin Baizhou.
Brother-in-law, you’re not loyal!
Lin Baizhou shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands. He laughed mercilessly, “Brother, I don’t even dare to compete with her… You picked her yourself, why were you looking at me?”
The boys laughed miserably while slapping their thighs.
“Wang Yan, you deserved it!”
“Come on, I will always support you spiritually!”
“Wang Yan, don’t cry and stand up straight!”
In an instant, the dignified Wang Yan was abandoned by his friends and family. Fawner Lv was the only one who remained loyal, he was worried and sighed helplessly.
“Wang Yan, I couldn’t help you with this matter… Why don’t you work harder?”
Work harder my foot!
Wang Yan put down his cue stick without batting an eyelid and nodded calmly at Lin Weiwei, “You could start the game, I’m going to the bathroom…”
Trying to escape using the bathroom excuse!
Before he could even escape…
He Luoluo blocked his way from the left, “Wang Yan, I’ll accompany you so won’t get lost…”
On the right, Lu Yuanyuan, was rolling up her sleeves.
“I dare you to run!”
Wang Yan shriveled up and collapsed onto the chair. Do whatever you want!
Once he sat down, he never got up again.
Lin Weiwei kicked off the game, and it was a chaotic fight. In less than five minutes, she was done!
She threw down the cue stick elegantly, placed her hands on her hips, poked Wang Yan and smiled like a trumpet flower.
“Come on, Wang Yan, what should I do?!”
Lin Pingzhi you were asking for trouble.
Wang Yan tried hard to keep a straight face, tried to threaten her with his eyes.
Unfortunately, there was a group of females around them and no one was afraid. Instead, they were all holding up their phones in high spirits.
Wang Yan held back his anger and asked, “We are brothers. Are you sure you want to do this?”
“Bah!”
Lin Weiwei was furious, “We were not brothers!”
“That’s right! That’s clearly Her Majesty…”
“Hahahaha… Hurry up and call her Your Majesty!”
“Yes, yes, yes. You were willing to bet so you must admit defeat. Otherwise, we would look down on you!”
If Wang Yan tried to make Lin Weiwei happy by getting in her good books, he might be able to escape this.
But the problem was, Wang Yan wouldn’t dare to stir up trouble and talk nonsense in front of Liu Li.
If this group of prodigal women didn’t shoot randomly, Wang Yan would suck it up and be shameless.
But nobody would listen!
Especially He Luoluo, who tried to wreck havoc. She couldn’t wait to force Wang Yan to marry Lin Weiwei…
In short, it was too difficult!
Wang Yan racked his brain to think of a way to get out of the situation. At least, he shouldn’t be photographed by this group of women with ulterior motives.
Just as he was struggling, Guo Zihao suddenly rushed in from the door and shouted without thinking, “Mr. Huang, Mr. Lin? Come to the ice rink, there’s a fool looking for trouble!”
Savior!
I love you!
Wang Yan was overjoyed, but his face was gloomy and his brows were tightly knitted together with a murderous aura.
Killer Wang, transform!
Huang Xu and Lv Yichen both shivered as they were reminded of that night…
