Chapter 212 He is mine
Su He was afraid that Jiang Yan would overstimulate Xi Jue, so she interrupted at the right time, "Hubby, forget it. Mr. Xi Jue has his own considerations. Since he doesn't want to, we can't force him."
Her words sounded normal, but the next second...
"It's also possible that Mr. Xi Jue is rather timid, or perhaps he doesn't like gambling and has a rather upright character."
Xi Jue was speechless again: "..."
Things didn't seem to develop as he expected!
Without waiting for Xi Jue to speak, Su He looked at him and asked, "Mr. Xi Jue, excuse me for asking, are you worried that I might cheat you?"
Xi Jue's brows knitted together. Just as he was about to speak, Su He spoke first, "Actually, you don't have to worry. You decide what the competition is about, so you don't have to worry about it being a trap."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xi Jue looked at her meaningfully, with a hint of curiosity and surprise in his eyes.
Su He really doesn't play by the rules. She always says something you wouldn't expect from time to time.
Her words not only shocked Xi Jue, but also Jiang Yan and Lan Yan. Is this a big deal?
Xi Jue still didn't agree to her request, but instead asked, "Miss Su, are you sure you can make the decision for him? If I agree to play a game with you, and you lose, you have to hand your husband over to me. What if you regret it later?"
"The grudge between him and me can't be resolved with just a fight. Have you thought it through?"
Su He said without hesitation: "Then I can ask my husband to write a written agreement for you, that should be okay, right?"
Jiang Yan: "..."
After Su He finished speaking, she turned to look at him, blinked, and asked, "Hubby, thank you for the trouble of writing this agreement."
Jiang Yan sighed inwardly and replied, "Okay."
He was actually used as a bargaining chip by his own wife. Not only did he have to use her as a bargaining chip, but he also had to write a letter of guarantee to her... This was really outrageous...
And he actually agreed...
Then, Su He looked at Xi Jue again and raised his eyebrows and said, "Look, he agreed. Isn't that sincere enough?"
Xi Jue's lips twitched slightly: "..."
She had already said everything, what else could he say?
If he hesitates any longer, it will seem that he is timid!
"Okay, I can bet with you, but..." He paused for a moment, then continued, "I'm not someone who likes to take advantage. It's a best-of-three game. You and I will each decide what to play in two of the games, and the last one will be decided by drawing lots."
Su He curled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "Okay, no problem."
This is what she was waiting for him to say!
Ten minutes later.
Several people moved from indoors to outdoors and came to a shooting range outside the manor.
This shooting range is well-equipped and looks very professional.
The first game was decided by Xi Jue.
Su He asked, "So, in this first round, Mr. Xi Jue wants to compete with me in shooting?"
Xi Jue smiled and said, "That's right. After all, I don't have much of anything here, but I have the most guns."
Su He raised her eyebrows, her expression calm.
He then said, "Since you are a girl, I won't make things difficult for you. I am blindfolding you, so you don't have to."
But as soon as he finished speaking, Su He refused: "That's not necessary. I am a person who pays attention to fairness."
Xi Jue asked in surprise, "You want to cover your eyes too?"
Su He nodded calmly, said "hmm", and asked, "Why not?"
Xi Jue was rather curious and asked, "Miss Su, have you ever played with a gun?"
Su He said casually, "I've touched the fake one, but the real one... I haven't. But I'm pretty good at playing with a slingshot. The principles behind both are similar."
“…”
Jiang Feng and Lan Yan stood aside and watched. Jiang Feng had a worried look on his face. After all, he had never seen Su He play with a gun, and he didn't know how good his young lady's shooting skills were.
They were betting on their own Fifth Master... The stakes were incredibly high. If word got out, it would scare the hell out of everyone...
Only their young lady has the courage and power to use their fifth master as a bargaining chip.
The point is, their Fifth Master cooperated throughout the whole process and didn't care about his own life at all.
Jiang Feng took advantage of the fact that no one was around and leaned close to Lan Yan's ear, whispering, "Lan Yan, how is the young lady's marksmanship?"
After all, Lan Yan has been with the young lady for such a long time, she must know more than him.
Lan Yan looked at him, said nothing, and just gave him a thumbs up.
Jiang Feng didn't react for a moment. After a few seconds of silence, his eyes suddenly brightened up, and then he nodded vigorously, "I understand!"
Afterwards, his tense heart could finally settle down and he could watch the show with peace of mind.
Xi Jue narrowed his deep and narrow eyes slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything.
However, one thing is that this woman cannot be underestimated.
Her words were too casual and her expression too calm, so he couldn't see any flaws. How much of what she said was true and how much was false?
He raised his left hand and waved it gently, and someone brought up the tools.
When everything was ready, Su He suddenly looked at Jiang Yan and said in a cold and somewhat coquettish voice, "Husband, how about you teach me how to use this thing first?"
She pointed to the pistol on the table.
Immediately, she looked at Xi Jue again and asked, "Mr. Xi Jue, can I try it first? After all, this is... my first time using a real gun..."
Xi Jue nodded: "Okay."
Then, Jiang Yan taught her very seriously how to use it, what postures to pay attention to, etc., as if she really didn't know how.
Then, after his explanation, Su He prepared to try a gun.
She prepared herself according to the man's instructions on how to stand, closed her eyes, and fired a shot at random.
"Bang!"
As expected, the bullet missed the target, and it missed by a ridiculous amount...
Xi Jue saw the whole scene. Her technique and expression didn't look like she was acting.
Moreover, if he is not blind, he can still tell whether a person really knows how to use a gun.
Obviously, Su He doesn't know how to use it.
This scene made Jiang Yan and Lan Yan, who had seen her use a gun before, fall silent.
At this moment, it was difficult for her to pretend that she had never used this thing. Even he had to admire her acting skills.
Su He retracted the gun, not feeling embarrassed. She looked at Xi Jue and said, "It seems that there is no hope of winning this round."
Xi Jue always felt that her words were strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange about them.
"Mr. Xi Jue, we can start now. You go first." She said, "I don't have any precedence for ladies here."
Originally, Xi Jue wanted to say "ladies first" in a gentlemanly manner, but since she said so, he had nothing else to say.
