“Table tennis?” Shi Yan was a little surprised. Since when did this girl know how to play table tennis?

“If you can, of course Rou Rou can too!” Shi Yan was still unconvinced, but Fang Rou tugged at the corner of her shirt nervously.

Since when did she know how to play table tennis? If her mother said that, wouldn’t she embarrass her in front of everyone?

“Mom, it’s not easy for my sister to go to the city, so I shouldn’t snatch her chance.” Fang Rou smiled at Shi Sen and said considerately, “Sister, don’t be afraid. I won’t snatch it from you.”

Fang Rou’s current appearance reminded Shi Sen of her previous life. Fang Rou had always acted so obediently and always said that she was doing it for her own good, but in reality, she backstabbed her.

“You have to have the ability to do so!” Shi Sen stared at Fang Rou until she revealed a terrified look. Then, she said in satisfaction, “You can compete with me. Let’s talk about going to the city after that!”

Shi Sen didn’t give Fang Rou any leeway at all. Did Fang Rou want others to think that she was just giving in to her? She wouldn’t let Fang Rou get her way.

Fang Rou was surprised that Shi Sen retorted her. Her cousin was usually innocent and gullible. Previously, when she heard that she had hit her uncle, Fang Rou didn’t believe it. Now that she saw Shi Sen’s expression, she realized that Shi Sen seemed to have become a completely different person and was a little afraid when she saw Shi Sen’s fierce look.

Liu De had agreed with Shi Sen’s family to bring her to the city, so he was unwilling to be pestered by Shi Yan anymore. He said unhappily to Shi Yan, who was blocking him, “If you want your daughter to go to the city, let her compete with Shi Sen. If she can beat Shi Sen, come and look for me.”

With that, Liu De left with Chu Liu. Shi Yan wanted to retort, but the village chief hurriedly stopped her.

“He has already said that if Fang Rou has the ability, she should compete with Shi Sen. Stop causing trouble!” With that, the village chief chased after Liu De.

Although Shi Yan was unwilling to accept it, she had no other choice. She turned to Shi Sen and Bai Lan and said fiercely, “The person who will go to the city will definitely be Fang Rou! Just you wait!”

Shi Sen snorted. Looking at the pale Fang Rou, she felt a sense of gratification.

After pulling Bai Lan back to the back room, Shi Sen ignored the people in the courtyard. It wouldn’t be long before she left with her mother anyway.

After Shi Sen pulled her into the back room and closed the door, Bai Lan asked, “Little Sen, how did you meet that coach? When did you learn how to play table tennis?”

Bai Lan knew that Shi Sen had never even played with a ball before, let alone table tennis.

Bai Lan was afraid that her daughter would be scammed, but with the village chief around, she felt that Shi Sen might have really just gotten lucky.

“I don’t know how to. I just have a little talent in that aspect, so I should learn more about it. There are many opportunities in the city, so we don’t have to suffer here anymore,” After Shi Sen explained to Bai Lan, she saw that her mother looked surprised.

“We? Are you taking me to the city with you?” Bai Lan was surprised. She had never thought she would have the chance to go to the city.

“Of course!” After Shi Sen thought about it for a moment, she decided to tell her mother the truth. “Actually, I agreed to Mr. Liu’s request in order to bring you out of here. Mom, the two of us will go to the city together. When the time comes, we’ll open another shop and settle down in the city.”

Bai Lan was surprised and touched. She didn’t expect her daughter to be so sensible and so considerate at such a young age.

“You can go yourself. I can’t burden you!” Bai Lan was worried that she would become a burden to her daughter.

“How can you be a burden to me?” Shi Sen grabbed Bai Lan’s arm as she wheedled, “Health is the most important thing for an athlete, so you have to accompany me and take good care of me.”

Bai Lan’s eyes welled up with tears. This was the first time she felt that she could rely on someone. Thinking of the grievances she had suffered previously, Bai Lan felt that as long as Shi Sen was around, everything was worth it.

“But your aunt…” Bai Lan couldn’t help but feel worried when she thought of Shi Yan, who had acted so arrogant and domineering in the courtyard just now.

“It’s fine. How can Fang Rou know how to play table tennis? You don’t have to worry.” Shi Sen knew that other than acting, Fang Rou had no other strengths. Besides, she also had the help of the achievement system.

“She doesn’t know how to play table tennis, but they won’t let you go to the city so easily.” Bai Lan wasn’t worried that Fang Rou wanted to compete with Shi Sen, but that since she was no match for Shi Sen at all, Fang Rou might use dirty tricks.
