Chapter 824: Chapter 824: Defeated Li Qiyun
The first round, both Chi Enen and Li Qiyun scored 9 points.
The second round, Chi Enen did not perform well, only hitting 8 points, while Li Qiyun maintained 9 points.
During the third round, Li Qiyun also didn’t have a good performance, scoring 7 points.
Chi Enen picked up her arrows, stepping up to the front.
Unconsciously, quite a crowd had gathered around them. She didn’t need to do the math herself; the people beside her were already whispering and had done the calculations for her.
“If it hits 9 points, it will be a tie.”
“If it’s a 10, only then can she win. Once it’s less than 9, she loses.”
“A bullseye is so hard to come by; even in competitive matches, very few people hit it. It’s just too difficult.”
The constant buzz from the surroundings flooded into her ears. Chi Enen took a deep breath, shut out the noise, and took her bow and arrow aiming at the target.
Not just for herself, but also for Li Beijue, she has to win! Otherwise, without even starting, she’d be looked down upon!
Yet, a 10, just as others say, is not so easily achieved.
Even for professionals, it’s not a sure shot.
Chi Enen, with a determined gaze, looked straight ahead, squinting her eyes, aiming at the red dot in the center.
No matter what, she had to give it a shot!
All the surrounding noise was blocked out. Suddenly, the world grew silent around her; all she could see in her eyes was the target ahead.
Finally, she released her shot—
The three seconds of the score countdown felt unbearably long, as if each second stretched to an hour. Chi Enen had never been so nervous; it was like waiting for the results of the college entrance exam.
“Did she really hit a 10?!”
“Are my ears playing tricks on me? That’s incredible.”
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone hit the bullseye.”
When Chi Enen heard “10 points,” her heart, which had been in her throat, suddenly fell. Her eyes uncontrollably lit up, and a surge of joy nearly burst forth from her chest.
Li Qiyun, besides the initial surprise, was more composed than anyone, the corners of her mouth curling into a smile as she approached Chi Enen, “Miss Chi, you’ve impressed me.”
“I…” Chi Enen wanted to be modest.
But Li Qiyun was already smiling, “You’re really good, no need for pleasantries, a win is a win. This is the first time I’ve lost to a woman; I only ever lost to Beijue before. He’s a freak, always hitting the bullseye, no normal person could ever beat him.”
“Li Beijue is really good at shooting?”
“You haven’t seen him?” Li Qiyun laughed heartily, “Some other time let him take you along, then you’ll understand.”
“Oh right, besides shooting, I also want to try horse racing. How about competing in another match?”
Chi Enen really wanted to say no, but seeing Li Qiyun’s eagerness, she couldn’t find it in herself to refuse, so she followed her to the race course.
Li Qiyun picked a horse, and so did Chi Enen.
She did her best in the horse race, but after three laps, she was left behind by Li Qiyun.
Chi Enen accepted her defeat wholeheartedly.
After riding, her back was drenched in sweat, and she really didn’t have the energy to continue playing. Fortunately, Li Qiyun didn’t mention other activities but suggested, “Let’s go, I’m tired too. I see there’s a place inside for coffee, let’s have a cup and rest a bit.”
Chi Enen followed her to the leisure area.
The waiter quickly brought over two cups of coffee.
