The owner of the billiard shop was worried that the youngsters would not know when to back down, so he came up to them and said, "Why don't the three of you step aside? It's my fault today, so I won't charge you."
"Why should I?" Jiang Qing looked at Xiao Changhe angrily. The three of them had noticed the other party earlier, but they had the advantage in numbers, so they did not want to take the initiative to look for trouble. They did not expect that Xiao Changhe would take the initiative to look for them.
"We came here first, and it's not time yet, right? Why should we step aside? "
Hearing his shout, the people around them all turned their heads. Xiao Changhe had a feeling that his scheme had succeeded. "Anyway, it's a waste of time for you to occupy a spot here. You might as well fight for us."
"How are we wasting time? Are you the only ones allowed to play? You don't allow us to play? "
"You want to continue playing? Sure. "Xiao Changhe smiled and said," Just beat me with billiards. "
Although Jiang Qing hated Xiao Changhe's personality, the billiard skills that he had just shown were obvious to all. If Jiang Qing had a few months to practice, she would still have confidence, but now she was no match for him.
The people around them were obviously people who liked to have fun. Seeing that Jiang Qing did not answer, they said, "What's the point of blindly playing? Why don't you step aside and watch Changhe play? You can learn something from him."
"Yeah, yeah. If you don't know how to play, what's the point of occupying the seats?"
Xiao Changhe looked at Jiang Qing, who was so angry that her face turned red, but she could not say anything. He felt more and more interested.
"How about it?" He turned to look at Zuo Zhicheng. "Junior Zuo, why don't you play a few rounds with me?"
Zuo Zhicheng arranged the billiards balls on the table one by one. He thought to himself, 'I've learned for a while in the past. Although I haven't played seriously for a long time and the rules are a bit different, with my current physical fitness, it shouldn't be a problem …'
Xiao Changhe had seen Zuo Zhicheng's skills before, so he naturally knew that his opponent's skills were terrible. Seeing that Zuo Zhicheng did not answer, he laughed and said, "Come on, let's play a few rounds. I can teach you how to play."
"Ah Zuo, just ignore him. We won't play anymore." Jiang Qing tried to pull Zuo Zhicheng away as she spoke.
However, Zuo Zhicheng said, "It's okay. In fact, I'm quite good at billiards. I should be able to beat Senior Brother Xiao."
Jiang Qing frowned and said, "Ah Zuo, didn't you see him just now …" She thought that Zuo Zhicheng was just pretending to be strong, so she wanted to continue persuading him.
On the other side, Xiao Changhe hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, Junior Zuo is very good at billiards. I might not be able to beat him. Just give me some advice." Seeing that Jiang Qing was so concerned about Zuo Zhicheng, he was even more annoyed.
Therefore, he said, "But let's make it clear before the game starts. Whoever loses will have to get out of this billiards hall. I mean it."
"That's too cruel."
Xiao Changhe laughed and said, "What are you afraid of? Anyway, you're good at billiards. You can beat me. "
Zuo Zhicheng said honestly, "You're right. I might not lose anyway. Let's play and see."
Seeing that Zuo Zhicheng agreed so easily, Xiao Changhe felt that something was wrong. But he had seen how Zuo Zhicheng played billiards just now. He was definitely not a master.
"It's okay." Zuo Zhicheng gave Jiang Qing a reassuring look, then threw a cue stick in Xiao Changhe's direction and picked up one for himself. "You can start first. We'll hurry up and finish this."
There was a cue ball and fifteen white balls. The cue ball was also used to hit the white balls. One white ball was one point, and the person with the highest score won.
"Stubborn duck." Xiao Changhe was sure that Zuo Zhicheng was very bad at billiards, and was just bluffing. He sneered in his heart, then laid down on the billiards table and started the game. He was indeed good at billiards. Every movement was standard, and his strength and accuracy were also on point. As soon as he started the game, the arranged balls scattered, and soon a hole was made.
Maybe it was because he was in good condition, but he scored two consecutive balls, and only made a mistake on the fourth ball. But this kind of skill was enough to put Jiang Qing and Xiao Lan under a lot of pressure.
Jiang Qing looked unhappily at Xiao Changhe's showy face. Looking at the absent-minded Zuo Zhicheng, she was a little anxious. "This idiot, why is he suddenly so impulsive?" But when she thought that he seemed to be standing up for her, she suddenly felt a little happy.
"At most, I'll mess up the billiards table, and this game won't be counted."
When the people around saw Xiao Changhe's performance, they all applauded. He smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Zuo Zhicheng provocatively. "It's your turn."
Zuo Zhicheng walked up without saying a word and sat down casually on the billiards table. He looked at where he was looking and behind the cue ball, and found a billiards ball in the corner as his target. It was as though he was a newbie playing for the first time.
Xiao Changhe chuckled and said to Young Master Lu and Young Master Zhang at the side, "The posture of billiards is very important. Playing while sitting down like this is way too unorthodox. Don't even talk about aiming, I'm afraid you might not even be able to hit the cue ball …"
Before his words were even finished, a crisp sound rang out as Zuo Zhicheng hit the cue ball. The cue ball arced across the billiards table in a strange arc, hitting the white ball and scoring.
Xiao Lan and Jiang Qing cheered out excitedly.
"Good shot!"
"Good luck! Zuo! "
Xiao Changhe smiled awkwardly and rubbed his nose. "Luck. Sometimes, when it comes to billiards, you might be able to score one or two balls if you're lucky. But, that posture of his is definitely wrong … "
But right after he said that, another crisp sound rang out as the cue ball struck the edge of the billiards table in a V shape, hitting the white ball once more and entering the hole.
It was only until the third ball that he made a mistake. But by then, Xiao Changhe's face was extremely terrible. Following that, the two of them took turns to play. However, Zuo Zhicheng seemed to be getting better and better as he chased after Xiao Changhe relentlessly.
As the competition between the two of them became more and more intense, the young masters and young ladies in the surroundings gradually gathered around to watch the performance of the two of them.
Yao Youwei and Miss Qing came over as well, watching Zuo Zhicheng's performance on the table. Yao Youwei chuckled. "To think that my luck would be pretty good today to meet a billiards expert."
Even though they claimed that their luck was pretty good, this was still just a game to them. Just like the other young masters and mistresses in the surroundings, even though they had an amused expression on their faces, it was still just a form of entertainment. Deep down, they did not think much of it.
Miss Qing looked at Zuo Zhicheng deeply with a hint of doubt in her eyes. "He's really good." This was the first time she had seen someone with two separate balls of connate Qi on his head and hands.
Naturally, she did not know that this was because Zuo Zhicheng was wearing a lead suit that he made himself. She thought that Zuo Zhicheng was someone who was born with two balls of connate Qi.
"That's right." Yao Youwei nodded, thinking that the other party was talking about his billiards skills. "He's really good. Seems like he's going to win."
However, in the crowd, Xiao Changhe's face was getting worse and worse. He had long stopped explaining to Young Master Zhang and Young Master Lu. When Zuo Zhicheng finally caught up to him and even surpassed him, his face was already as black as ink.
