Chapter 44: Responding to the Challenge
Jiang Yuan slowly raised his eyes and looked over.
The woman opposite smiled faintly at Liang Zhouheng and said, "I don't play with people I don't know well. Mr. Liang, are you going to introduce us? Is this a new... partner?"
Everyone present knew that Liang Zhouheng changed women like changing clothes, and he always had a player's mentality towards love.
The word "partner" undoubtedly mocked not only Liang Zhouheng but also Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan felt a sharp sting in her ear. This woman was clearly looking down on him on purpose.
Liang Zhouheng: "I haven't played with you for a long time, and I almost forgot your rules. Let me formally introduce you. This is Jiang Yuan. I just graduated from Beicheng University this year and joined the Finance Department of Dongjin. I'm not a partner, but... a sister."
After saying that, he turned to look at Jiang Yuan, "You have to call this beautiful lady sister. She also graduated from your school. She has a nickname, 'North City Pan Xiaoting'. She's a very good player. You can see her skills later."
Liang Zhouheng avoided the main point and did not say what Jiang Yu's identity was, nor did he say what her relationship with Yin Dong was.
Jiang Yuan nodded obediently and called out to Jiang Yu, "Sister Jiang Yu."
Jiang Yu glanced at her calmly, her tone flat: "I'm sorry, seeing the way you were dressed, I had a preconceived notion and thought... I'm only a few years older than you, so there's no need to call me sister."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Jiang Yuan's response, she turned to look at Yin Dong and said, "Is your group going back to school to recruit new people this year? I haven't heard you mention it. I have several junior students who are interested in joining you. I'll send you their resumes later."
Her tone was very familiar, and Yin Dong responded calmly, "Yeah."
"Don't change the subject, are you going to play ball or not?"
Liang Zhouheng urged from the side.
Jiang Yuan could feel Jiang Yu's condescending attitude. Jiang Yu's every move revealed his disdain and contempt for her, which was very similar to someone else.
Birds of a feather flock together; this probably applies to them, Jiang Yuan thought to himself.
However, apart from this, she also had an inexplicable intuition that Jiang Yu must be hostile to her.
She stood beside Liang Zhouheng, holding the golf club in her hand. Jiang Yu took the golf club from Liang Zhouheng nonchalantly and said to him, "Don't blame me if you cry."
Her words successfully aroused Jiang Yuan's desire to win.
Jiang Yuan admitted that she was very unhappy when she saw Jiang Yu sitting next to Yin Dong when she walked in. It was a good opportunity for her to vent her anger on the pool table.
Liang Zhouheng's face clearly showed an expression of excitement, and he was very excited. "Then let's play a best-of-five game. Since it's a competition, it would be more interesting if there were some gimmicks..."
Liang Zhouheng was interrupted by Jiang Yu before he could finish his words. "Old rules, the loser has to go up on stage and do 100 push-ups."
As soon as the words fell, people around immediately started to make a fuss, and the atmosphere instantly became heated.
It’s okay for men to do push-ups, but it’s embarrassing enough to think about a girl lying on a platform and doing push-ups while being watched by everyone.
Besides, Jiang Yuan was wearing a cheongsam today.
"This is too harsh. A girl's arms are useless after doing 100 push-ups."
Liang Zhouheng sympathized with the girl and gave her some advice.
Jiang Yu: "This is always my rule when playing basketball. When you played basketball with me, you developed biceps. Have you forgotten? If she can't accept it, then don't play. It's boring."
She said, throwing the cue back onto the table.
"I accept."
Jiang Yuan's voice was calm. She stood at the other end of the pool table, holding the cue in both hands, her ten fingers ready to go.
