Before the crowd could marvel, Lin Yifan continued to shoot, blowing up the small red balls.
"Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!"
With every small red ball that exploded, the tension among the onlookers intensified.
Now, the entire shooting range seemed like Lin Yifan's personal battlefield; here, he was the boss, the master of all lives.
At this moment, the owner of the shooting event was sweating profusely, constantly using his sleeve to wipe the sweat trickling down his forehead.
Following that, he muttered under his breath, "Damn! Absolutely freakish! Not a single bullet went astray."
Given the current situation, it looked like his 18K gold diamond ruby necklace was going to be taken by the opponent.
This necklace was worth more than five thousand, almost as much as his monthly salary. If it were taken away, it would indeed be a huge loss.
While some were anxious, others were jubilant; seeing Lin Yifan hit fifteen bullets in a row, An Qi grew even more excited and cheered, "Big pervert! Go for it! Big pervert! Go for it!"
If it had been any other shooter, they would have found these cheers annoying and distracting since shooting demands a quiet environment and is easily disrupted by external disturbances. However, Lin Yifan, being a sharpshooter with a strong mental fortitude, wasn't overly affected by external influences; thus, he could still hit his targets even with An Qi shouting loudly.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After firing four more bullets, Lin Yifan blew up four more small red balls; only one last ball remained for him to win the first prize.
This was the last shot, and it was crucial.
Everyone held their breath to watch his final shot.
"Big pervert! You must hit it! You must!" An Qi clenched her little fists, whispering prayers under her breath, extremely tense.
Zhou Jiajia was also very nervous, eagerly hoping Lin Yifan would succeed in shooting and claim the first prize.
However, at this moment, the most nervous person in the arena was the owner of the shooting event; Lin Yifan's last shot would decide whether he would end up in a big loss or not.
Now, he was silently praying for a strong gust of wind to blow away the bullet when Lin Yifan fired his last shot.
While everyone else was tense, Lin Yifan relaxed; he smiled at the sweat-wiping owner and then said, "Sorry, boss!"
After speaking, he pulled the trigger, and with a bang, a bullet was fired.
"Wind! Come on, hurry! Hurry!" The owner was desperately anxious, his hands sweating profusely.
A moment later, his prayers seemed to work, as a strong wind swept across the shooting area, causing chaos.
However, it was all too late; the last bullet Lin Yifan had fired had already exploded a small red ball; now, they were celebrating joyously on the sidelines.
"Big pervert is so awesome! Perfect hit, all in one go!" An Qi praised.
"Heh! Piece of cake, not worth mentioning!" Lin Yifan humbly responded.
"Mr. Lin is so manly, so impressive. I admire you more and more," Zhou Jiajia also acted like a little fan girl, swooning over Lin Yifan.
Seeing the women he liked swooning over him, Lin Yifan instantly felt thrilled and couldn't help but blush.
The surrounding audience also praised his marksmanship, and everyone admired him immensely.
Twenty shots fired in rapid succession, each hitting the target without a single miss, was not something just anyone could achieve; for that alone, they admired him.
After the cheers, An Qi approached the stall owner to claim her prize.
The owner hesitantly took out a beautifully packaged box from his backpack and handed it over to An Qi with a pained expression.
An Qi received the box; but when she tried to take it away, she found that no matter how she tried, she couldn't move it.
Then she threatened, "Owner! You business is open to the public, so you can't go back on your word. Plus, you've seen what my bodyguard can do. If you don't give it up, I'll have him smash your stall."
After hearing An Qi's threat, the shooting stall owner obediently let go; if his stall was smashed and he was injured, only to have the necklace taken anyway, he would truly be paying a heavy price, a huge loss indeed! Hence, he dared not withhold it.
After getting the ruby necklace, An Qi immediately unwrapped the package and opened the box to check.
The next moment, she was stunned, "Wow!!! Such a beautiful necklace! Jiajia, it really suits you."
"How does it suit me?" Zhou Jiajia asked shyly; she really wanted the 18K gold ruby necklace.
Because Lin Yifan had personally won this necklace, it was as if it was Lin Yifan's own item; having it meant that Lin Yifan was giving her a gift he had worked hard to obtain.
Receiving a gift from the person she loved filled her with joy and sweetness; moreover, the ruby, being the "Stone of Love," symbolized eternal love, which made her even happier.
"It suits you in every way. The maturity, passion, and magnificence of the ruby; all these traits, Jiajia, you possess them incomparably, thus the necklace suits you perfectly," An Qi responded.
"Really?" Zhou Jiajia asked with a smile, feeling extremely sweet inside and blossoming into a smile.
"Really! I'm not lying. If you don't believe me, I'll put it on you right now," An Qi said, and then she placed the necklace around Zhou Jiajia's neck.
After a moment, she stepped back and said, "See! Doesn't it look beautiful?"
"Does it?" Zhou Jiajia asked uncertainly.
"Yes! Hey, wolf! You say, doesn't it?" An Qi asked Lin Yifan.
"Yes! Yes! It's really beautiful!" Lin Yifan quickly exclaimed, nearly drooling.
With the necklace on, Zhou Jiajia appeared even more mature and stunningly beautiful; he loved it, was moved by it, and wanted to embrace Zhou Jiajia tightly, feeling her tender and gentle embrace.
"Look at the wolf drooling over you; that proves how good you look!" An Qi suddenly blurted out, feeling a surge of jealousy.
For some reason, seeing Lin Yifan look amorously at another woman made her very angry.
"Uh..." Lin Yifan was at a loss for words, even a happy smile was interpreted as lascivious behavior.
Gazing at Lin Yifan's sweet smile, Zhou Jiajia also felt his affection; as long as Lin Yifan found her beautiful, that was all that mattered to her; because the greatest beauty in the world is the praise from the person you love; as long as the loved one finds you beautiful, it doesn't matter what others say about your looks; because my beauty, is only for the eyes of the one I love the most.
"Then, An Qi, can you give this necklace to me?" Zhou Jiajia asked.
"Of course! Why not? Jiajia, we've been sisters for so many years, you don't have to be formal with me; whatever's mine, feel free to take it," An Qi replied.
