Corey’s challenge (1)
In the midst of the audience’s clamouring, the battle in the ring came to an end. One stood staggeringly though his body was full of blood while the other was sprawled on the floor not moving, whether he was alive or not was a question. However, obviously no one cared whether he was dead or alive, only the medical team rushed up to carry him away, leaving the one standing there.
One battle ended, meaning another would start soon. The winner had the right to choose to remain in the ring and accept the next challenger, but he could also choose to give up. After all, the majority of contestants were free agents. The hosts also did not wish that every contestant would have to be carried off stage.
The winner on stage at the moment smartly chose to give up competing. His body was full of wounds, if he didn’t want to die, the only way was to give up. Thus, he left the stage after receiving the prize, which was a bank card with no password. There was $1,000,000 in it.
USD$1,000,000 to those who could participate in the banquet really didn’t amount to much. However, to the bodyguards and some specially invited people beside these people, this was a big gain. This was why there were people willing to go on stage and compete, at the same time becoming the object of bets of the audience.
There were a lot of people who registered to compete on stage. Neither of the two people on stage were Rabbit. One of them was yellow-skinned, while the other was white. After the two of them appeared on stage, the audience below started placing their bets. There were three minutes allotted for them to place their bets, which was also to give the participants time to prepare.
Three minutes came to an end very quickly. The two of them more or less simultaneously charged toward the other, a barrage of blows were exchanged swiftly and fiercely and were very worthy of being watched. The audience below were also screaming excitedly below the stage. The white man was obviously bulkier and his codename was Old K while the Asian man wrestling moves were more domineering and his codename was Black Tiger. The audience members were also yelling out their support for the ones they bet on. However, there were many different languages involved making Su Yanyi who was listening think it was funny.
“Does it resemble a United Nations conference? There are probably people from about a hundred different countries at this banquet.” Su Yanyi’s words carried playfulness.
Qin Jiran didn’t say anything and just put on a cold face as he watched the two fighting on stage, his ears filled with shouts. This made him feel very alien and at the same time, it made him feel that these people were all mad and should be brought home to take medicine.
“What’s wrong, you don’t like it? Or is it that you’re not used to it?” Su Yanyi took notice of the man’s face and asked with some curiosity.
Don’t like it or not used to it? This question really carried deep meaning; to make “not like” into “like” was perhaps a bit difficult, but it seemed to be a lot easier to change “not used to” to “used to”. Take the audience below, whose hand did not hold wealth surpassing 9 to 10 figures? At the beginning, they may not have been used to such a scene but after watching and experiencing more, they became used to it.
And this was a form of the falling of human nature. Of course, it could be said that this was humanity’s strong ability to adapt, no environment was truly scary to humanity because humans would use their especially unique ability to adapt to deal with any environment!
“I just feel that it’s meaningless.” At this moment, Qin Jiran looked over at Su Yanyi as if he was observing the colour of her face while at the same time considering his words and voicing out his thoughts. He didn’t want Yanyi to feel like he was rejecting this place. He felt that this place perhaps belonged to the Su family’s, even more so to Su Yanyi’s, world. He should try to better adjust to this place.
“To you there’s no meaning, but to these people it is very meaningful. The ones fighting on stage could be doing it for money, or perhaps glory, or maybe they’re like Rabbit and doing it just to compare their skills, but they are all seeking something. As for the people below, some are doing it for the excitement, some are doing it for the money, but they still have their own way of thinking don’t you think?” Su Yanyi used a calm voice to give a long explanation, at the end, asking Qin Jiran a rhetorical question.
Qin Jiran grabbed Su Yanyi’s hand and asked seriously: “Yanyi, are you worried about me?”
Su Yanyi raised her brows, somewhat admitting it. She really was scared that this man was not used to such a scene, after all, the life he used to live was different.
Darkness, violence, bloodiness, they make all sorts of rules into trash. The huge power held by the Su family allowed her to witness the genuineness and the darkness of this world. It was just that in the end, she had chosen to get out of such a powerful world. Maybe it was because she had seen enough of it, maybe it was because of her personality, but no matter what, she had experienced it while Qin Jiran never had such an experience so she couldn’t help but to be worried.
“Yanyi, thank you, but at the same time please believe in me. As a man, I do have mental strength. Besides, I’ve been trying all along, hoping to have enough qualifications to stand by your side.” At this time, Qin Jiran suddenly understood Grandpa’s intentions; the reason Grandpa let Yanyi and himself come here together was probably to introduce him to this world, which also signified him entering the Su family’s dark world!
“You’re already qualified!” Su Yanyi considered the meaning behind Qin Jiran’s words and at last, said this after much thought!
To Su Yanyi, when she admitted that this man was her man, or perhaps to say when she had promised to be with this man forever, this man was already qualified to stand by her side.
In Su Yanyi’s eyes, Qin Jiran was very outstanding. First was his appearance, this didn’t need to be explained. Then there was his character, he was tender, considerate, detailed, and gentle, and was compatible with her personality, making her feel very comfortable with him. Finally, there was his abilities. Qin Jiran had already become an outstanding existence in his industry, and at the same time, he also ran other businesses. This was already enough to prove a person’s excellence. Besides, Qin Jiran’s excellence wasn’t just demonstrated in his career, he even knew how to cook and could cook for her to eat and look after her. His moves weren’t bad either and could train with her, even battle together!
Of course, the most, most important thing was this man’s feelings towards her. She felt that in this world besides her family members, no one loved her more than Qin Jiran did. Adding all these together, it made Su Yanyi feel that no one could match with her better than Qin Jiran did and this proved that Qin Jiran was more than worthy of standing by her side!
To Su Yanyi, there wasn’t a even need to consider this kind of question because she had already thought about it many times and every time she thought about it, she liked Qin Jiran more, because she felt that this man was worthy of her love!
Yes, the word ‘love’ had long become the feeling she had towards Qin Jiran. There was no need to use other words to describe it anymore!
When Qin Jiran heard this, he laughed silently.
“Although I’m very happy you said that but to me, this qualification is something I’ll work hard towards forever!” Earning Yanyi’s recognition was an undeniably happy matter and his heart was full of happiness but to him, being compatible with Yanyi was something that he would be chasing forever because in his heart, no matter how hard he tried or how outstanding he was, Yanyi was an existence far beyond him. This was the motivation behind his efforts and also the goal he had always been chasing.
Su Yanyi’s eyes became weird, she didn’t really understand Qin Jiran’s meaning as for such a proud person, she really couldn’t understand the feeling of worshipping someone and all the more could not understand Qin Jiran’s worshipping kind of love towards her.
However, even though she didn’t understand, Su Yanyi could steel feel Qin Jiran’s sincere feelings and to her, this was enough.
Su Yanyi slightly raised her lower lip, her indifferent expression held a proud kind of emotion. She squinted her eyes a bit as she said to Qin Jiran: “Then continue working hard, I’ll be watching.”
Qin Jiran’s right hand moved slowly and finally reached his heart. That place was beating wildly.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Every beat seemed to be telling him one thing, he loved this woman and this love was growing deeper and deeper!
“Okay!” Then please watch on well, look at his efforts, at how he walked closer to her step by step and at last, reach a place where he was worthy of standing by her side, the only one who could!
In this relationship, Qin Jiran was perhaps the lower one but towards the pursuit of this relationship, Qin Jiran also had his own domineering methods. His confidence came from Su Yanyi’s reply. Just like how Su Yanyi believed that Qin Jiran was the one who loved her most, Qin Jiran also believed that he would be the one who would be by Su Yanyi’s side the longest!
At this time, the members of secret team A would surrounded them had weird expressions. The voices of the two people in conversation weren’t loud but were heard by all of them. In the end, their expressions couldn’t be held back!
Why was even the way the Elder Miss dated so different?
Why was even the Son-in-law’s method of expressing his love so special it made one speechless?
What’s more, how could they be talking about love without a care in such a place? The fighting beasts stage had such bloody fights, would it really not affect their feelings? Or was this the so called ‘out of the ordinary romance’?
“I’ve decided!” Violent Rabbit said at that moment. Her voice was not loud, but through the communication device, all nine members of the team heard it very clearly.
“What did you decide?” Tiger asked blankly and with some curiosity.
“We don’t want to know what you’ve decided at all.” This very wise attempt to stop her came from Kangaroo.
The two of them opened their mouths at the same time, proving the difference in reaction between a smart person and a stupid person.
“I’ve decided that in future, I’m going to find a man like Master Son-in-law and let him chase me for a lifetime!”
“……” This was the silent response from everyone else. Beloved violent Rabbit, do you really think the key point lay in being chased for a lifetime?
At the moment, there was some change to the battle in the ring. The white person called Old K was kicked out by Black Tiger. His mouth spurted out blood that covered half his face. After falling off the stage, he struggled for a while then fell down and stopped moving. The winner and loser became obvious.
In the audience, there were those who cheered and those who cursed but they very quickly adjusted their emotions to begin the next round of betting. At this moment, Su Yanyi also received a notice that it was Rabbit’s turn to go on stage.
“Elder Miss, don’t stand on ceremony and bet on my win, I definitely won’t lose the face of secret team A!” Violent Rabbit waved her fist around then went on stage. The one awaiting her was Black Tiger. As the winner, Black Tiger didn’t choose to leave the stage but had chosen to continue battling. When the pretty lady Rabbit went on stage, the cheering at the arena became louder.
The pretty lady versus the beast was something a lot of people liked. Of course, if the pretty lady was also a beast than it was more worth watching. At this place, there wasn’t anyone who knew how to show tenderness towards women.
It was also at this moment that Corey arrived with people. He had been notified and knew that Su Yanyi and company had arrived here, so he had also brought people and had specially rushed over to keep her company.
