particular music told him it was his fourth brother calling. If it wasn't an emergency, he shouldn't have called. But――"I won't take it, don't worry!"Lin Meng let out a sigh of relief, but she still...Chapter Name: 104

Lin Meng's ears turned red. To be honest, she didn't care much about the prizes. She just wanted to recapture the joy of her childhood. But since Rong Ling had set it up for her, she naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to refuse. She excitedly ran over and picked out a set of small teddy bear combos. Inside the beautifully packaged box, through the transparent plastic film on the outer layer, you could see a pair of teddy bears, a male and a female, both squinting and smiling. They looked so adorable. Lin Meng fell in love with them at first glance!

When Lin Meng received the teddy bear prize from the staff, she was so delighted that her mouth wouldn't stop smiling. Jiang Dongxian, who was watching, couldn't help but frown. It turned out, she could smile this happily too. Her fair face seemed to absorb the radiance of the sun and moon, shining brightly. But this radiance was directed at someone!

Tolerate...

He muttered the name silently in his heart, but there was a trace of unwillingness. His arrival today was purely for show. Since Bingbing's father couldn't come out from the army, he needed a man to accompany her out to play. For someone like him, a member of an official family, marriage was mostly arranged and emphasized matching families. Which young master or lady in Kyoto wasn't playing wildly at sea when they were young, only to restrain themselves upon marriage, becoming the elegant noblewoman or prominent elite in everyone's eyes The old master at home wanted to match him with He Ya, so he took this opportunity to send him over, making him act as "temporary father" hoping to cultivate feelings between him and He Ya during this time.

He didn't really care, marriage was just a formality. As long as the family backgrounds matched and the woman wasn't too hideous, it didn't really matter who she was. So he went along with it.

He had met He Ya, the young miss of the He family, before. She was a fine arts student who would be graduating from university in July. Perhaps she was slightly cleaner than other famous daughters who had already entered society. He was free and idle, so he came to join the festivities. However, there was a certain disappointment. Looking at her, He Ya wasn't much different from the other wealthy daughters. She was equally arrogant and self-centered, carrying an air of superiority that seemed to please her immensely. She wasn't willing to look at others properly. When they went out to play together, her lukewarm attitude made him unable to feel any great enthusiasm.

However, when he saw Rong Ling, he probably understood. It turned out that this little girl treated him so indifferently, it was because she had someone else in her heart. At that time, he got a bit angry. He, Jiang Dongxian, was definitely not a mediocre person, what time did he become cannon fodder Since she was interested in other men, why did she drag him in Why didn't she refuse the grandfather at the time Why did she still laugh and agree on the phone Or, did she think this was fun Flirting wasn't impossible, it's just that he found this kind of play annoying!

So, when we walk together, there's nothing left to say!

But, seeing the girl with sunglasses beside Rong Ling, he suddenly felt a little better. Probably this girl would also stand by his side and become cannon fodder just like him. They were all in such positions, at least he had found a companion, which was pretty good!

So, observing silently, he thought this girl was indeed quiet. The great fun they were supposed to have turned utterly dull because of these four people's presence. She managed to keep her temper in check, and in his eyes, she seemed like a person with deep intentions, someone who knew how to conceal her emotions in front of others. This made him even more bored, thinking that on such a great weekend, instead of going out to have fun with his buddies, he ended up in this inexplicable J city watching these uninteresting people hang out together. How unfortunate!

He disliked her composed demeanor. Did she think wearing sunglasses would hide everything He found it boring, so he had to find some fun for himself. So, provoke her! Best case scenario: Her anger would cause this makeshift team to explode, and he could just walk away, pat himself on the back, and return to his B city.

But this girl—how is she so different!

That kind of identity, still lecturing him so righteously, is really interesting!

By now, Chiang Tung-hsien is truly a little unwilling to give up!

To say, He Yaya went to Rong Ling's side, that wasn't anything unusual; he never really paid attention to her anyway. But how could this girl be so completely infatuated with Rong Ling! Still, it was just a prize, he wanted to give it, she stubbornly refused; however, when Rong Ling gave it to her, she was so happy as if she had found a million dollars out of thin air!

This kind of preferential treatment made him very unhappy!

Watching He Ya pull Rong Ling away, showing him how to tie a loop, Jiang Dongxun couldn't help but sneer. He Ya was nicknamed "little girl," but this little girl wasn't small at all! She probably had a lot of tricks up her sleeve.

That girl, all alone holding her newly acquired prize, watches as her man is pulled away by another woman, passionately kissing and embracing her. How long can she possibly endure this

He looked at Lin Meng with great interest, then leaned closer to her and laughed mockingly, "So this is what you really wanted!"

Lin Meng didn't even look at him, she just clutched the plastic bag holding the teddy bear tightly! She coldly watched Bingbing excitedly surround Rong Ling, while He Ya grabbed Rong Ling's arm, trying to put a ring on him while smiling slyly. She felt that just as she was starting to feel a little bit happy, He Ya would ruin it immediately. If she hadn't met them, Rong Ling should be teaching her how to play now!

She couldn't help but purse her lips, but that was all she could manage!

Jiang Dongxian found it interesting, and several thoughts flashed through his mind. Suddenly, he had an idea.

"Look, let's not just stand here like fools. Find something to do!" He said, abruptly and rudely grabbing Lin Meng's hand.

"What are you doing!" Lin Meng gasped, hurriedly trying to pull her hand back, but Chiang Dong-xian held on rather tightly.

Jiang Dongxian laughed with a bit of impudence. “You seem to really like teddy bears, come on, I’ll get you a big one, it will definitely be better than the one you have now. Don't thank me, just consider it a welcome gift from me!”

"I don't want to!" Lin Meng felt that this person was a bit strange, but she was helplessly dragged away by Jiang Dongxian.

The push and pull between the two of them naturally immediately caught Rong Ling's attention, who had been distracted by Lin Meng all along. He abruptly pushed away He Ya who was clutching his arm, turned around, and walked towards Lin Meng.

"Let her go!" he growled coldly, his stature slightly taller than Chiang Dong-xian's, emanating a heavy sense of oppression. The coldness in his eyes was no joke.

Chiang Tung-hsien let out a chuckle, but didn't let go. “Hey, it's nothing. Don't take it seriously, Rong Ling. I just wanted to teach her how to play with guns and get her a big bear.”

Rong Ling's lip line immediately tightened, reaching out and grabbing Chiang Dongxian's arm, holding it tightly, looking at him sinisterly, and whispering, "Let go!"

His hand, however, was forceful. The strength, like an iron clamp, clamped onto Chiang Dongxian's arm, causing a dull pain. He couldn't help but loosen his palm and let go of Lin Meng's small hand. Rong Ling fiercely shook off Chiang Dongxian's arm, then pulled Lin Meng over and pulled him into his embrace, holding him tight.

"My woman, she doesn't need other men to give her things!" he roared, warning!

"Hee hee, it's just a little gift between friends, just for fun! Why are you taking this so seriously" Jiang Dongxian chuckled with narrowed eyes, seemingly oblivious to Rong Ling's displeasure. In fact, he did it on purpose! Yes, he was playing with fire!

Rong Ling, upon hearing this, looked coldly as if his eyes had frozen. He Ya and Li Yiping led Bingbing over and asked softly in unison, "What's wrong Is everything alright"

Rong Ling's face was calm and composed.

Jiang Dongxian raised an eyebrow, not looking at the two women, but provocatively said to Rong Ling: "Well, how about a match"

Rong Ling didn't speak, but He Ya was a little annoyed and shouted, "Jiang Dongxian, don't make trouble!"

Jiang Dongxian ignored him and continued to provoke Rong Ling. "There were people playing guns up front. Although they weren't real guns, it wouldn't affect the competition. Let's go compare, whoever wins..." --"

He pointed with his hand. “See that big bear lying there That seems like the biggest prize! Whoever wins gets to give that big bear to Lin Meng, how about it!”

"What the heck are you doing" He Ya angrily exclaimed. "Jiang Dongxian, if you're going crazy, go back to your city B and do it there! Don't mess things up here and ruin everyone's fun!"

Jiang Dongxian ignored him and strode toward a gun stall thirty meters ahead.

"Brother Rong, don't pay attention to him, that person is just a bit crazy!" He Ya said in a hurry.

Ke Rongling let go of Lin Meng and strode after him.

Because, some challenges are inescapable!

Lin Meng didn't understand how things had gotten to this point and quickly followed after him. Over there, Chiang Tung-hsien was already talking to the staff member in charge of the shooting range, probably wanting to challenge someone else to a gunfight and hold up other tourists.

As soon as the VIP pass was shown, the staff member was speechless. They could only politely request Jiang Dongxian not to delay business at the shooting stall for too long.

This is a shooting game where you use bullets to shoot down balloons hanging on a steel net. It's also a pretty common game. Of course, the bullets are plastic small round beads, and the gun is just a simulation gun, with no lethality at all. Many people played this as kids.

Jiang Dongxian watched Rong Ling walk over and stated the competition rules. “Let's have a competition to see who can extinguish all the balloons here in the shortest amount of time!”

He said, swaying his hand, and from somewhere he pulled out a stopwatch. He forcefully handed it to a staff member on the side, making them responsible for timing it.

The staff wore worried expressions, thinking to themselves, "These two people have popped all the balloons. When will they ever be able to replace them" Don't underestimate that steel net; it spanned nearly three meters and had almost a hundred balloons hanging on it. Don't think those balloons are easy to pop. It takes one bullet to take down one balloon, which is a very difficult task. These games designed for entertainment have a fundamental purpose: to make money. So these imitation guns have been modified. Their trajectory and muzzle are only capable of firing bullets in a limited area to hit the target. Moreover, the balloons filled with air are elastic. If you don't master the distance, those plastic bullets will either just brush past the balloons or be bounced back by them, incapable of breaking them!

The staff member confirmed that it would be impossible for the two of them to eliminate all the balloons in less than a couple of hours. He thought to himself, if at that time, the surrounding tourists expressed strong dissatisfaction because they couldn't play, he would immediately call the manager for help.

Over there, Chiang Tung-hsien started test firing, just as the staff had expected, these bullets and gun were specially designed, to break the balloons was quite difficult. Rong Ling also picked up a gun, disassembled it, took a look, then weighed the gun roughly, finally loaded the magazine and began firing. One shot, and it missed as well.

Just as the staff members were about to grimace, thinking they were in for a rough time, the two men unexpectedly hit their targets simultaneously. With the burst of the first balloon, a series of pops followed immediately.

The staff members were stunned and looked in disbelief at the balloons shattering rapidly. They knew this was probably an “insider,” and they were instantly excited. When Chiang Tung-hsien and Rong Ling nodded to indicate that the competition could begin, the male staff member, who was about 1.8 meters tall, didn’t say a word and enthusiastically took on the task of pinching the balloons!

"You go first!" Rong Ling looked at Chiang Dongxian calmly.

Chiang Dong-hsien raised an eyebrow, and without hesitation, placed his hand on the airsoft gun already loaded with bullets on the table. With the staff's "start", Chiang Dong-hsien grabbed the gun, raised it, and with a serious expression, aimed forward, firing "bang bang bang". At that moment, his entire demeanor changed, losing that air of nonchalance, instantly becoming a stern soldier. The sound of the balloons bursting coincided with the gunfire, creating an endless barrage of pops orchestrated by Luo Yi. This intense gunfire and explosions immediately drew countless onlookers, surrounding the shooting stand in three layers inward and three layers outward. Chiang Dong-hsien moved around while firing, reloading after the bullets were spent, then firing again. The entire process was smooth and fluid, raising the gun for a direct hit, eliciting numerous cheers from the crowd! When all the shots were fired, and the steel net hung with broken, colorful balloons, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

Forty-one seconds point three two -- this data is simply miraculous!

Chiang Dongxian was very pleased, a smile appeared on his face, and he recovered his languid look. He raised an eyebrow and looked at Rong Ling. "It's your turn!"

There, the staff expertly removed the deflated balloons and replaced them with new, inflated ones. After all the balloons were hung, they looked up at Rong Ling with great anticipation!

Lin Meng was a bit worried, looking at Rong Ling, her heart beating rapidly. Women don't want to see their men being humiliated by others. But at this moment, she couldn't say anything, she could only watch silently, and then silently pray.

Seeing Rong Ling place his hand on the simulated gun, a sudden smile appeared on his face, which was somewhat abrupt but devilishly dazzling, causing everyone's hearts to skip a beat. He seemed different now. Then, the staff member nodded. With a "start", Rong Ling moved, raising his gun, shooting, and shifting positions, as if it were all happening in an instant. There wasn't a hint of a smile on his face at that moment, only a cold and austere expression, looking remarkably cool and solemn. If Jiang Dongxian's shooting moments ago resembled a valiant warrior, then Rong Ling at this moment was like a veteran sharpshooter who had been through countless battles. Every shot, every movement, was so precise, never missing a target, and executed with seamless coordination. His movements were incredibly fast, unbelievably swift, almost as if he were creating an afterimage.

After the bullets were spent, he turned around, reloaded and chambered a new round. He was so fast, it seemed like a wisp of smoke, returning to the spot where he had paused without any hesitation. He continued shooting and moved further to the right. With perfect accuracy, every bullet fired caused the balloons to burst with a sharp crack. At first, there were shouts, but as his ghostly speed and divine marksmanship unfolded, silence descended upon the surroundings!

The last balloon burst with a violent boom, and the workers instantly stopped their stopwatch, excitedly shouting --

"One minute eighteen seconds point twenty-four!"

It's unbelievable! Everyone thought Chiang Dong-xian had amazing gun skills, but Rong Ling was even faster, beating him by over twenty seconds!

It's incredible!

The crowd was roaring, thunderous applause filled the air!

Róng Líng raised an eyebrow, gave Jiang Dōngxian a long look, then turned and gestured with her hand, pointing directly at that enormous plush bear.

Give me that!

The staff respectfully took the big bear, holding it with both hands, and presented it to Rong Ling. They laughed heartily and explained, “This is an authentic product from Disney, made of pure wool and handcrafted. Since the amusement park opened, it has never been won by anyone. Today, it was finally won, and it didn't disappoint its value!”

That big brown bear, as tall as an adult, really looked impressive. It had a thick coat of fur that looked incredibly soft and clearly wasn't cheap!

"Here you go!" Rong Ling held the big teddy bear and walked a few steps forward, handing it to Lin Meng.

The big bear was enormous, looking even bigger than Lin Meng. When Lin Meng reached out, she managed to hug it, but the bear's two legs still dangled on the ground. However, a bear with a woman, especially a beautiful one, truly was a sight to behold. Lin Meng's fair face was buried in the bear's soft beige fur, looking tender and delicate like a fairy, making people want to take another look.

Lin Meng hugged this big fellow, everyone's eyes were fixed on her. She was embarrassed by the attention, but she still smiled foolishly, along with the silly big dog bear, it was so adorable that it caught your eye!

Rong Ling frowned, her heart was heavy. With a slight movement, she shifted to partially block the gazes directed at Lin Meng, and her cold eyes swept across the room. Her powerful and ruthless gaze, along with an intimidating aura, forced everyone to avert their eyes, afraid to look any longer.

Joke, at first glance, seeing people play guns so skillfully, they must have practiced. People like this, who knows what family they come from, which one you can't offend!

"How is that!" Rong Ling sneered, looking at Chiang Dongxian with mockery. He had always disdained arguing with others, because it was truly childish. But he couldn't help himself; from just now until this moment, everything he had done was a fight!

Jiang Dongxian shrugged. "What can I do It's all about accepting defeat gracefully! Since I lost, then it's settled. I'll help you out and be Lin Meng's guardian angel. While you're busy with the girls, I'll keep an eye on her. I won't neglect her or let any other man take her away. How does that sound"

He stared daggers at Rong Ling, ignoring the subtle shift in expressions of the several adults around him after hearing his words.

Rong Ling's brows furrowed, and she looked at Lin Meng with a complicated expression. She roughly understood the hidden meaning behind Jiang Dongxian's words - he was cold to her. It was just that Jiang Dongxian's actions, obviously helping Lin Meng, made Rong Ling unhappy. He was offering help for no reason, either treacherous or malicious! Especially since Jiang Dongxian came from that circle in Kyoto!

"No need!" Rong Ling coldly refused. "I'll take good care of her!"

After finishing, he still left the newly acquired big dog bear at the gun shop, intending to pick it up when he left. After all, holding such a large thing was really inconvenient. Then, he took Lin Meng's hand and held on tightly, as if he wanted to tie her to him.

Lin Meng's face was flushed red, she was very embarrassed, but she didn't struggle, instead she quietly reached back and grabbed Rong Ling. When Rong Ling looked down at her, she pursed her lips and shyly smiled at him, then leaned closer to his side.

That's reliance!

Yong Ling's heart immediately softened!

Bing Bing stood on one side, her lips pouted and she glared angrily at Lin Meng and Rong Ling whose hands were intertwined.

"Uncle Rong, hug me!"

Feeling that his sovereignty was being infringed upon, the little guy decided to fight back.

Even though Rong Ling held Bingbing in one hand, he still didn't let go of Lin Meng. The little kid snuggled her small head against Rong Ling's chest, lowered her head, and stared wide-eyed at Lin Meng. When Lin Meng smiled at her, the little kid suddenly turned her head away, refusing to look at her, turning her back to Lin Meng as if in defiance.

Lin Meng blinked and didn't mind. It was just Rong Ling's friend's daughter, not Rong Ling's daughter. She felt that she didn't need to make this little girl like her!

A few people walked away, and He Ya, who lagged behind slightly, couldn't help but grab Chiang Dong-xian's arm, pulling him back from continuing on. She hissed in his ear, "What's wrong with you What did you mean by what you just said!"

Chiang Tung-hsien smiled innocently. "What do you mean! It's exactly what I meant, you know, I know, and probably Rong Ling knows too!"

"Jiang Dongxian, have you always been so nosy!" He Ya gritted her teeth.

Jiang Dongxian glanced lightly at He Ya with a faint smile. "That depends on the object! If you're better than Lin Meng, then I'll naturally help you too!"

This saying implies that Lin Meng is stronger than He Ya! This enraged He Ya, who has always considered herself superior. How could she be surpassed by a little girl like Lin Meng!

"Jiang Dongxian, you're dead!" she roared, her pretty face flushed red with anger!

Jiang Dongxian pretended to be scared, clapping his chest and saying in a silly voice, "Oh my, I'm so scared, so scared!"

"Jiang Dongxian!" He Ya cried out, completely enraged by him, furious!

Chiang Tung-hsien let out a sly chuckle, using a trick akin to the Golden Cicada Escaping its Shell to slip free from He Ya's clutches and run away. All that was left was He Ya stamping her feet in anger, fuming.

It's simply a disgrace!

That stinky man, and that little bitch, watch how I'm going to teach these two a lesson!m.Lin Meng is more difficult to deal with than she imagined. It seems that in the past few years, she has grown quite a bit!And Rong Ling, was also much colder than she had estimated, which was very d...
