Chapter 185 - Courting Death
Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu didn't care about the commotion here. The two of them were only focused on their competition.
After a leap, Yan Jinyu soared into the air and spun around. With a beautiful drift, she reached the finish line first. However, Huo Siyu wasn't much later than her. It was only a difference of a few seconds.
The ending was equally beautiful, but Huo Siyu wasn't discouraged by the fact that she had lost the competition. "Beauty Yu, it's indeed very difficult to beat you!" No matter what they were competing.
"You're not bad either." Yan Jinyu wasn't stingy with her praise. "You've improved a lot." Not only did she improve in skiing, but she also improved in her skills.
In terms of skiing skills, it was impossible for them to do what the two ladies did.
Based on her previous standard, Yan Jinyu wouldn't have only defeated Huo Siyu for a few seconds.
Of course, it was not that she had regressed, but Huo Siyu had improved.
Yan Jinyu was very happy about this.
As for whether she had improved or not, she did not care that much. Anyway, she had never been a very ambitious person. In the past, if it was not for the sake of survival, she probably would not have mastered so many skills.
However, she would never stop learning whatever she wanted to learn until she mastered it.
That was why she had today.
Huo Siyu grinned at her praise.
Then, she looked in the direction where the few of them were standing. "Beauty Yu, do you think Huo Sisi specially brought us out just to get Xiang Qing to disgust us? I keep feeling that this isn't her style."
Huo Sisi was such a ruthless person who wanted to destroy someone completely. Why did she only find such a weakling? They didn't even torture her and she was already dead.
Besides, if it was just a small fight, they wouldn't be able to torture Huo Sisi back!
Diss her?
What was the point of dissing her? Huo Sisi was still jumping around like a clown.
Yan Jinyu followed her gaze and happened to see Cao Ming walking over on the two skis. She smiled, "There's no hurry. There will be a good show soon."
Huo Siyu saw that she was looking at Cao Ming. At first, she was a little puzzled until she saw Cao Ming walking straight towards them. Then, she saw Cao Ming's gaze that occasionally turned back to look at Huo Sisi.
She instantly understood.
"When I was skiing earlier, I unintentionally glanced over there. My vision is very good, and they aren't standing too far away so I saw very clearly. Huo Sisi reached out to pull Cao Ming, and then Cao Ming grabbed her hand and kissed it." Yan Jinyu was like an enthusiastic audience.
Huo Siyu had goosebumps after hearing her words.
"No way? Huo Sisi didn't hesitate to seduce such a person just to deal with us?" Let's just assume that Huo Sisi was a beauty.
"This Second Young Master of the Cao Family doesn't look too bad, but compared to the descendants of the other families, he's too shabby. He also has shifty eyes. Compared to my brother…"
"It's like the difference between heaven and earth! Huo Sisi has designs on my brother. Doesn't she feel the difference?"
"Also, doesn't Huo Sisi feel disgusted?"
"Oh my god, I've really lived for so long that I can meet all kinds of weirdos. Fortunately, my brother doesn't have any feelings for her. Otherwise, with such a sister-in-law… my brother's head might be completely covered in green1!"
"However, she didn't hesitate to make such a huge sacrifice to achieve her goal. This is very… Uh, admirable."
"Let's go, Beauty Yu. Let's go for another two laps. Let's not bother about him first."
Such a small fry was not worth their efforts to deal with. Since they were here, they could just settle him with violence.
Few people could compare to them in terms of violence.
They had bombed an island to smithereens and destroyed the nest of the Ghost Slaughter Island, the most famous assassin organization in the killer world. What else could be more violent than that?
Yan Jinyu stepped on the skiboard and followed her with a beautiful jump. At the same time, she threw a glance at Huo Sisi.
She frowned slightly.
According to Huo Sisi's style of completely destroying Little Rain as soon as she made a move, as well as Huo Sisi's ability to prevent even Huo Xuan and Little Rain from finding out about her after she did that, she had a feeling that Huo Sisi's plan today was not limited to this.
It was impossible to completely destroy them just by getting Xiang Qing and Cao Ming here. Huo Sisi should not be so naive.
However, she was actually not worried at all.
She retracted her emotions and continued to ski.
After skiing two rounds, the two of them went back to the starting point. Cao Ming, who was on the same ski route, also slid back to the starting point.
Not only Cao Ming, Yuan Xi, who was watching the commotion, also walked towards them.
"Second Miss Huo, Miss Yan, I didn't expect you guys to ski so well. Shall we have a match?" Cao Ming looked at them with admiration.
Huo Siyu glanced at the two skis at his feet. "We're using skiboard while you're using double skis. Is there a comparison?"
She had successfully made Cao Ming's expression stiffen.
However, he had probably made up his mind. His displeasure was quickly restrained. "I'm better at using skis. It's such a dangerous slide, so I don't dare to use a skiboard."
"If you don't dare to use the skiboard, why do you still want to compete with us? Can't you just play by yourself? I say, you're really an interesting person. You want to compete with us but at the same time you said that you're not good at skiboard and even felt that the ski route we chose was dangerous. It's as if we're forcing you to compete with us."
"If you want to compete with us, then change to a skiboard. Otherwise, go wherever you want." Huo Siyu's words were very impolite.
However, when she said that, the onlookers who were amazed by her and Yan Jinyu's superb skiing skills agreed with her completely. Many people even echoed after her when she finished speaking.
Cao Ming's face turned bright red.
He was so embarrassed.
"Alright! I'll go change to the skiboard!" Cao Ming left angrily.
At this moment, Yuan Xi walked over. "Miss Yan, Miss Huo." His attitude was cold yet polite.
Yan Jinyu smiled and nodded.
"Young Master Yuan," Huo Siyu greeted.
"Do you mind if I join your competition?"
This surprised the both of them.
"Young Master Yuan wants to join us too?" Huo Siyu asked.
Yuan Xi nodded, a hint of excitement in his eyes. "I preferred this kind of sport. It's rare to find someone of a similar strength to compete."
Huo Siyu didn't reply immediately. She looked at Yan Jinyu inquiringly.
"Sure," Yan Jinyu said.
It was a good opportunity to test their guesses.
Then, Yan Jinyu saw a faint smile flash across Yuan Xi's face. It quickly disappeared, and she almost missed it.
Yuan Yuan was worried and followed him over, "Xi'er, why don't we… forget it? It's too dangerous."
"It's fine. Actually, it's about the same as playing on my own." After a pause, Yuan Xi still said, "Sister, don't worry."
"But…"
"I used to play this often in the past. My skills are not bad, and I've never been injured. Besides, both the girls aren't afraid. Why should I be afraid?"
Yuan Yuan wanted to say that they were really good at skiing. It seemed like they were familiar with skiing in a ski park. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so good.
However, thinking that she would sound like she was looking down on her biological brother, Yuan Yuan did not say anything in the end.
Under her worried gaze, the three of them arrived at the starting point.
At this moment, Cao Ming, who had changed to a skiboard, came back.
The few of them stood alternately in a line. Yuan Xi stood on the leftmost, followed by Yan Jinyu, then Cao Ming, and then Huo Siyu.
Huo Siyu jumped onto the skiboard and glanced at Cao Ming, "Shall we begin?"
For some reason, Cao Ming felt inexplicably uneasy when he saw the smile on Huo Siyu's face.
Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, he nodded. "Begin!"
The four of them flew out at the same time.
Perhaps because he was really not familiar with the single skiboard, Cao Ming's body swayed when he slid out.
Compared to the three of them, he was far too inferior.
With Huo Sisi watching, Cao Ming, who did not perform well, was filled with anger. He originally only had the determination to seriously injure Huo Siyu, but now, he wanted to do more than that.
It wasn't only Huo Siyu. Looking at Yan Jinyu, who had surpassed him by a small distance, a ruthless glint flashed past Cao Ming's eyes.
His limelight was actually stolen by two girls!
At this moment, it was unknown if it was because he was blinded by anger or because Yan Jinyu was the most eye-catching among the four people in this match. Cao Ming actually gave up on attacking Huo Siyu, who was closer to him, and suddenly accelerated towards Yan Jinyu.
He wasn't as fast as Yan Jinyu. If he wanted to catch up to her, he had to ski desperately!
Seeing this scene, everyone in the stands exclaimed.
They were all exclamations like "Is he crazy", "Does he want to die", "Miss, be careful".
Yuan Xi, who was a little behind Yan Jinyu, saw that and his expression changed drastically. "Be careful!" After shouting, he wanted to ski over and help her block him.
However, Yuan Xi's speed was too fast and they were also on the most dangerous part of the ski route. It was impossible for him to quickly ski over and block Cao Ming while ensuring his safety at the same time.
Cao Ming increased his speed ruthlessly and shouted, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
It was to make excuses and so he could say that he had lost control and caused the accident.
However, he didn't expect that even if he could hurt Yan Jinyu, he wouldn't be able to get away with it unscathed. In China "wearing a green hat" (戴绿帽子 or dài lǜ mào zǐ) is an expression that Chinese use when a woman cheats on her husband or boyfriend because the phrase sounds similar to the word for cuckold.
