Snooker?
Xiao Luo felt helpless in his heart. This was obviously Chu Yue's little trick again. The corner of his mouth couldn't help but curve into a sly smile. He replied, "I've only played American Black Eight, never snooker!"
Fu Jiawei snickered in his heart. It'd be weird if you've played something as high-class as snooker!
His expression didn't change. He pointed at a place not far from the dance floor. "Are you interested in playing? I happen to have a snooker table here."
Looking in the direction that Fu Jiawei was pointing at, a building that looked like a huge white swan came into view. Inside the building, there was a snooker table with fifteen red balls and six colored balls. There was a hole at each of the four corners of the table and at the center of each of the two long sides. The green surface of the table was as smooth as a mirror.
Xiao Luo smiled and said, "I can play!"
He didn't mind giving these people a lesson and earning some points while he was at it.
Ye Yingying stood up. "Xiao Luo, I'll play with you."
"I'll raise both hands in favor of a beauty playing with you!"
Xiao Luo nodded and said leisurely, "But it's not that interesting to just play. How about some prizes?"
Ye Yingying was stunned. Then, she took out a bank card from her pocket. "Sure, there's fifty thousand in this card. I don't expect you to get more points than me. As long as you get ten points, you win. You can take this card."
"Miss Ye, are you sure? I'm pretty good at playing Black Eight. I'll win if I get ten points. Isn't that too good for me? "
Xiao Luo had a bright smile on his face. Not only would he get to eat at the ball, but he could also win money. For a guy like him who didn't have much money, happiness came too suddenly.
Idiot, how can American Black Eight be the same as snooker?
A mocking smile flashed across Ye Yingying's face, mocking Xiao Luo's ignorance.
Although American Black Eight and Snooker were both billiards, there was a big difference between the two. First of all, there was the table. American Black Eight was about 2.5 meters long and 1.2 meters wide, while Snooker's table size was 3569mm × 1778mm. The latter was much larger than the former, and the difficulty was not on the same level at all.
Secondly, snooker is very particular about defense, ball control and strategy. Those who have never played snooker will not have such a concept in their mind. It is like a guy who has never touched a basketball suddenly playing a basketball game. His brain will be blank.
"If you think I'm taking advantage of you, then so be it. But if you lose, you have to pay something. That's only fair." Ye Yingying snorted.
Xiao Luo shrugged. "I'm not as rich as Miss Ye. I don't have 50,000 yuan on me!"
"I don't want money. Besides, I'm the eldest daughter of the Ye family. Do you think I'm short of money?"
Xiao Luo's expression became playful. "What do you mean, Miss Ye?"
"If you lose, all you have to do is bark like a dog in front of everyone and wipe my shoes clean." Ye Yingying lifted her high heels.
As soon as she said that, all the guests present understood what was going on. Ye Yingying was obviously going to humiliate Xiao Luo.
Xiao Luo's eyes gradually turned cold. He did not expect Ye Yingying to be so vicious. "This prize is related to my dignity as a man. It might not be smaller than Miss Ye's 50,000 yuan."
"Then I'll add this!"
Ye Yingying went all out. She took off the watch on her wrist. "This is a Swiss Omega Galaxy watch. It's worth at least 50,000 yuan."
"You're betting big!"
Xiao Luo pretended to hesitate, but in fact, he was laughing in his heart. He was just worried about not having enough money to spend, and now a spendthrift came knocking on his door.
"If you're a man, then show some courage and boldness. Don't be so wishy-washy, okay?" Fang Shulan crossed his arms in front of his chest with a mean look on his face.
As soon as she finished speaking, her and Ye Yingying's friends, young masters, and daughters all spoke up.
"That's right. If you want to play, then hurry up and play. If you don't, then admit defeat."
"He's afraid of losing. After all, he's never played something as high-class as snooker."
"That's true. If he loses, he'll have to bark like a dog. He can't afford to lose face like that."
Fu Jiawei's face was brimming with a proud smile. If he succeeded, Chu Yue might have a good impression of him. Thinking about the days when he had a goddess by his side, he felt a burst of happiness in his heart.
In the distance, Bai Ling said nervously, "Young Mistress Chu, do you think Xiao Luo will agree to bet with Ye Yingying?"
"Hmph, if he doesn't agree, then we'll just execute the most vicious plan in history!" Chu Yue pursed her lips. She was determined to embarrass Xiao Luo.
The most vicious plan in history?!
Bai Ling could not help but shudder. She was deeply worried for Xiao Luo.
At this moment, Xiao Luo twisted his neck and went forward. He asked, "Ms. Ye, what's your bank password?"
What?
Everyone present was stunned. They did not know what Xiao Luo was up to.
Ye Yingying was also puzzled.
Xiao Luo spread his hands and said, "Without the password, how can I withdraw the money from this card?"
Gasp …
As soon as he said that, everyone could not help but gasp. They thought to themselves, This guy is too arrogant. How can he be so confident that he'll win?
Meanwhile, Fu Jiawei only smiled disdainfully. He muttered to himself, "Gaming and snooker are Yingying's two hobbies. Even Uncle Da, who has participated in international snooker competitions, recognizes Yingying's skills. Even if Xiao Luo has three heads and six arms, he can forget about winning against her in snooker."
Ye Yingying was so angry that she laughed. Then, she said in a deep voice, "The password is six ones. Win if you can."
"Alright!"
Xiao Luo strode toward the snooker table.
The guests who were drinking, eating, and chatting all shifted their positions when they saw such an interesting snooker competition. They all went to watch it together.
Xiao Luo picked a cue stick and weighed it in his hand. "I haven't played for a long time. Let me get the hang of it first."
As he said that, he bent down and hit the white ball with the cue stick. His movements were unfamiliar and stiff. This shot lived up to everyone's expectations. The cue slipped. Almost all of the force on the cue stick was applied to the edge of the white ball, causing it to only slide a short distance.
"Hahaha …"
Fang Shulan and Ye Yingying's friends roared with laughter.
"He doesn't even know how to hit the ball. It's obvious that he's never played snooker before!"
"He just boasted shamelessly that he's good at playing American Blackjack. It looks like he's just bragging."
"Isn't that so? I've never seen such an idiot before. Is there something wrong with his brain? He's so arrogant. I don't know how he survives."
Chu Yue, who was far away, became excited. "This guy is about to learn how to bark like Wang Cai. Haha …"
Bai Ling was very puzzled. "What's wrong with Xiao Luo? If he doesn't know how to play, then he shouldn't have agreed." On second thought, she felt somewhat comforted. "But this is good too. It saves Young Mistress Chu from coming up with the most vicious plan in history."
