Chapter 365 - 363: Utterly Frustrated
"Situ Nan, you... have really let me down, wasted my expression!"
Guo Jingjing pouted, looking utterly disappointed.
"Jingjing, there’s definitely something wrong with this ball, I need to check it out."
Situ Nan was in a panic, his beautiful dreams had been shattered to pieces, and if someone had a weak heart, they’d probably faint.
"Hmph, you couldn’t throw it properly and now you’re blaming the ball, how despicable!" Guo Jingjing glared at Situ Nan with disdain.
Situ Nan was extremely frustrated. He refused to admit he threw too hard; it had to be the ball or the bucket’s fault.
Without waiting for the boss’s permission, Situ Nan walked toward the large bucket, picked it up, and looked it over for a while, but found nothing unusual.
However, Situ Nan suddenly thought of a question: if it was the bucket’s fault, why didn’t the previous two balls bounce out?
So, he hurried back to his original position, took another ball from the boss, casually tossed it into the bucket, and after wobbling for a while, it stayed inside.
"Haha, I get it, maybe it’s this ball that’s the problem."
Situ Nan seemed to have found the reason and said to the boss, "Boss, I want these three balls, let’s continue the game."
"Oh? Are you sure about these three? No more problems, right?"
The boss asked, fearing Situ Nan might weasel out later.
"Yeah, there won’t be any problem this time, the big prize is definitely mine."
Situ Nan was confident now and turned to Guo Jingjing with a smile, "Jingjing, just wait a little while, the big prize is coming, this time I’ll definitely win!"
"Hmph, let’s talk when you win; you let me down every time." Guo Jingjing obviously didn’t believe him anymore.
Gu Shengming gave a wry smile; Situ Nan really left him speechless. If he weren’t his master, he’d really want to curse: damn trash.
Situ Nan took a deep breath. Although he said he’d definitely win, there was still some worry because accidents could always happen.
If he failed again this time, not only would he be ridiculed by the onlookers, but his evening plans would probably fall through.
Without further delay, Situ Nan calmed himself down, threw a ball, and as expected, the ball entered the bucket and didn’t bounce around. Then the second ball, which was no different.
At this moment, it was down to the final crucial ball.
This time, Situ Nan didn’t rush. Instead, he calmed his breath again. He couldn’t believe that after preparing for so long, he could still make a mistake.
Logically, these three balls had been tested and didn’t bounce wildly, so there shouldn’t be any errors.
Moments later, as Situ Nan’s ball flew out, everyone watched with bated breath.
"Bang! Bang! Swoosh..."
This time, the small ball bounced twice inside the bucket and finally flew out.
"Impossible!"
Situ Nan couldn’t believe it, the force was controlled precisely, how could it possibly fly out.
"Haha, sorry, young man, you just had bad luck today. Maybe come back another day." The boss, having conned him twice now, knew to stop. If this continued, someone might really notice something was off.
"Yeah, this guy really has bad luck, always dropping the ball at the crucial moment, sigh..."
Onlookers were also sighing at his misfortune, believing his luck was just bad.
"Impossible, boss, your ball must have been tampered with, right? I want to dismantle it and take a look." Situ Nan refused to believe it.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing, young man? It’s one thing if you lack skill, but don’t blame the ball. I still need to keep doing business. If you can’t handle it, leave."
The uncle, seeing Situ Nan was about to dismantle the ball, immediately became anxious.
"Exactly... if you lack the ability, that’s one thing, but don’t blame the ball, watch me!"
Suddenly, a man stepped out from the crowd, followed by a pretty girl.
Situ Nan turned to look, realizing it was Chen Tianlong.
Seeing this, Guo Jingjing was fuming. Situ Nan really was trash; he couldn’t even throw a ball and now was blaming the balls.
And now they were left speechless by Chen Tianlong’s words.
"Damn, Chen Tianlong, don’t add to the chaos. Obviously, there’s something wrong with the ball. What do you know!" Situ Nan, at this point, also started to muster up his courage, deciding to go for broke.
This was the last chance. If Chen Tianlong took over and continued, he could forget about getting close to Guo Jingjing tonight.
"Really? I think it’s more a matter of character?"
Chen Tianlong said with an amused smile, then walked over to the boss and said casually, "Boss, seems like we’ve met somewhere before."
Damn!
The boss, upon seeing Chen Tianlong, immediately remembered. It wasn’t long ago, and Chen Tianlong had left a deep impression on him. How could he forget?
"It’s you!"
The boss gasped, weakly saying.
"Yeah, it’s me. Not using high-tech this time, are we? Wow, an Apple phone. Let me try and see if I can win the big prize. Boss, do you think I have a chance?" Chen Tianlong said deliberately.
"Haha, you should be able to."
The boss forced a smile, inwardly unleashing a torrent of curses. Whenever this guy showed up, it was never good; his tricks had been discovered once by him. If he used them again just now, he might really be exposed.
Actually, whether the boss used it or not, Chen Tianlong had already noticed because he had been standing behind while Situ Nan was playing.
"That’s good!"
Chen Tianlong smiled slightly and turned back, saying, "Mengting, how about we win that phone?"
"Hehe, it’s not that easy!"
Wu Mengting, of course, liked it too, but this was the big prize. Winning wasn’t something you could just say and do, and she’d seen Situ Nan’s situation just now, it was quite challenging.
"Chen Tianlong, who do you think you are? I just threw twice and failed to win, and you think you can?" Situ Nan said disdainfully.
"Oh, that’s a skill issue!"
"You... humph, let’s see you win then, shall we?"
"Idiot, aren’t I just about to?"
Chen Tianlong cursed, turned around, grabbed three small balls, and directly threw out two. With two bangs, the balls wobbled twice in the large bucket and stopped.
"Wow!"
The crowd’s eyes widened. This young man didn’t even look; he just grabbed the balls and threw them, and he threw two at once. The key thing was both went in.
This was such a heaven-defying skill, much more impressive than the previous person.
Damn! It had to be luck!
Situ Nan was also dumbfounded. This Chen Tianlong really had good luck.
But standing to Situ Nan’s right, Guo Jingjing furrowed her brows. Although Chen Tianlong seemed to throw casually, his control of strength was perfect.
The boss saw it too and felt a chill run through his heart.
He hadn’t planned on activating any equipment, leaving it purely to luck to decide the outcome. But with Chen Tianlong’s casual throw getting in, if he didn’t activate it, wouldn’t he just be handing him the phone?
In the panic, Chen Tianlong suddenly turned around and looked at the boss, laughing slyly, "Boss, looks like it’s quite fair this time, good improvement, very nice!"
