Chapter 818: You’re Blindly Copying Her
“Old Yao, your words are ambiguous. Hahaha, if someone doesn’t take the competition seriously, he has a big heart. Do you mean that people who take the competition seriously are narrow-minded? You…” Commissioner Yang laughed and teased him. “Let the children handle their own businesses. Old Yao, why are you interfering as an adult?”
Deputy Commissioner Yao started laughing loudly too. “That’s right, let the children play on their own. Adults like us can just watch at the side. Nonetheless, my daughter might argue with me later at home again. We should ask Hengheng to persuade her a little. She doesn’t listen to us. She only listens to Hengheng.”
“She’s at the rebellious phase now. You can only persuade her.” Commissioner Yang clapped his hands and stared intently at the stage. He was engrossed in the competition and didn’t pay much attention to Deputy Commissioner Yao’s words.
At this moment, Yao Jing was so embarrassed she bit her lips tightly. She… she truly didn’t know that they had a distance requirement. No one told her about it!
She thought that… she thought that she could just find any distance she was comfortable with and throw the dart.
Although she humiliated herself, Yao Jing didn’t evade reality. Instead, she admitted her mistake magnanimously. “I’m sorry! I thought that we could just stand anywhere and throw the dart. I’ll take note of it in the next round.”
After she acknowledged her mistake, the awkward atmosphere disappeared. Her team members’ expressions became softer too.
“It’s alright. Just stand at the 2.37 meters mark and throw your dart.” The young men in her group didn’t say anything else. The girl had already admitted her mistake so they would forget about it too. Anyway… it was just a game.
Admitting her mistake directly was better than hiding it. People were more willing to accept someone who admitted their mistakes. In this aspect, Yao Jing was many times stronger than Ye Ying.
Ye Jian’s team had already gone two rounds. Both times, Ye Jian hit the center circle. Wang Jin felt his heart shuddering when he saw this.
She was indeed impressive. It was her first time playing but she didn’t miss a turn. Unfortunately, this was a team competition. If it was an individual competition, it would be more interesting!
“Yao Jing, don’t go to the wrong position.” It was Yao Jing’s second turn. The young man beside her hurriedly reminded her, afraid that she would run to less than 50 centimeters away from the board again to throw her dart.
That wasn’t throwing. That was directly stabbing the dart into the board!
She just needed to raise her hand to put the dart on the board.
2.37 meters wasn’t a short distance. Yao Jing stood on the shooting point and aimed at the center circle many times. Yet, she didn’t throw her dart out.
It was so far… How did Ye Jian do it?
“Hurry up, hurry up! It’s Ye Jian’s turn again! They’re at their third round!”
“Hurry up and throw your dart. It doesn’t matter if you can hit the board or not. You need to clear the space out for us!” The young man behind Yao Jing started urging her. If the person in front didn’t throw her dart out, the people at the back could only wait. It was a waste of time!
If Yao Jing didn’t care about her result, she would have thrown her dart a long time ago. She kept trying because she wanted to hit the dartboard.
She turned her head and saw Ye Jian tilting her body slightly forward. Then, she threw her dart out easily… Yao Jing heard the cheers and the loud round of applause from below the stage.
She pursed her lips and felt miserable. She only knew how difficult it was to shoot from 2.37 meters away after she tried it. Don’t even talk about hitting the center circle. She found it hard to even hit the dartboard!
No way. I should learn her posture first. Maybe I will be lucky enough and hit the board! Yao Jing didn’t care about the hurrying from the young man behind her. She copied Ye Jian’s posture and ‘swoosh’… The dart flew out.
It didn’t even hit the dartboard. The tip of the dart was at least one meter away from the board. It fell on the ground without even touching the board.
