Chapter 479: Chapter 453: Xiao Qiang Is Not a Coward

“Xiao Mei~ wait for me~”

Yu Minglang hurried out from the pharmacy with a bag in hand.

Xiao Qian pretended not to know him and walked slowly in front of him. She really couldn’t walk fast, feeling like she had a tear injury.

“Don’t be upset.” He caught up to her and took her hand.

“What am I upset about?” She countered.

“You’re upset about…don’t you like the fruit flavor? I talked to her, and she switched it to chocolate…”

Xiao Qian rolled her eyes.

See, she knew that his thought process wasn’t in sync with hers.

Forget it, it’s not worth getting angry at someone like him.

Xiao Qian believes that if one wants to live a comfortable life, they shouldn’t bother themselves. For example, don’t get angry with straight men like Yu Minglang, who will never understand a woman’s thought process.

The Night Market wasn’t too crowded, and Xiao Qian saw a shooting stall offering prizes. A young couple was playing, seemingly without any success. The girl punched the boy, who angrily walked away first, with the girl chasing after him.

Why are there so many forms of love? Every couple has their own way of getting along. Her Xiao Qiang, aside from occasionally being childish, is usually quite good.

When compared like this, Xiao Qiang’s antics in the pharmacy didn’t seem so hateful anymore. And besides, who would recognize her after leaving the pharmacy? Thinking this way, she calmed down and reached out to hold his arm.

Yu Minglang’s thoughts once again missed Xiao Qian’s. He suddenly raised his hand, pointing at the shooting stall. Xiao Qian’s hand awkwardly stopped mid-air, but the childish man didn’t notice. She pretended to fix her hair.

Don’t get angry with the childish guy, stay calm…

“Xiao Mei, do you want me to shoot a stuffed toy for you?”

The prize was a huge stuffed toy.

It was a normal sentence, but after what had just happened, it suddenly seemed to have endless innuendo…

Xiao Qian’s face involuntarily turned red. Shoot a stuffed toy?

Was she overthinking, or was this guy shameless?

“Xiao Mei?” He didn’t understand her little, colored struggles and waited for her answer with confusion.

“Yeah, alright.”

She wasn’t sure whether to call him shrewd or stupid, or perhaps he was just a hidden genius?

The air guns at the Night Market were not very accurate. The vendors had adjusted them to make them harder to use. Yu Minglang first took a shot to find his aim, then gave the vendor 20 yuan, starting his one-man show.

He had such an exquisite performance that even air guns powered by compressed air couldn’t dampen his brilliance. At first, Yu Minglang played seriously, but then he caught a glimpse of Xiao Qian happily watching him from the corner of his eye. Feeling a sudden surge of energy, he began to play with fancier shooting techniques. For the last two shots, he turned around and fired the shots from under his armpit.

Except for the first test shot, he hit all the other targets on the balloon board.

The vendor’s face turned green.

20 yuan could be played twice, so he could only bear the pain of losing money and refill the board with balloons. He secretly cursed, were these two here to ruin his business?

The largest plush toy, which had cost more than 100 yuan and had been wrapped in a plastic bag for two years without anyone taking it away, was finally claimed. The boss hadn’t even thought that someone would take it away.

But now, the plastic bag covered in dust had been removed, revealing its fresh, soft fur, and it was held in Xiao Qian’s arms.

Oh, it breaks my heart…

Xiao Qian didn’t particularly like the kind of things that little girls like, but this one was different. It was filled with Xiao Qiang’s sincere feelings for her.

A voice came from the side.

“Boss, give me the 10 yuan one!”

This voice…

Xiao Qian and Yu Minglang exchanged glances. They both recognized the familiar voice. They turned around and saw Wang Yafei.

He was dressed in casual clothes with a slightly red face. It seemed like he had been drinking.

On his side, there were two young men who also seemed to have had quite a bit to drink.

As Wang Yafei said that, his eyes were provocatively staring at Yu Minglang.

Yu Minglang raised an eyebrow. Oh well, he had come over to challenge him? That’s quite courageous and worth praising.

“Yafei, forget it.” The person with Wang Yafei grabbed his sleeve, recognizing who Yu Minglang was, and worried about offending him and having trouble later on.

Today, some were happy and some were sad. The people who had been chosen for the reality show had already been taken to Qiang City, and Wang Yafei, who had been dropped, was given a vacation by his original unit. No one knew how long this vacation would last.

No one wanted this kind of vacation. In the midst of blood and tears, Wang Yafei suddenly saw the Young Boss with the Psychologist who had mistreated him.

It was as if they had been scheming for so long just to eliminate him. Wang Yafei’s emotions surged as he stood at the stall next door, picked up a gun like Yu Minglang’s, and flicked off Yu Minglang with his middle finger.

He was determined to crush him; he was determined to kill his momentum.

It had been many years since anyone dared to give him the middle finger. Yu Minglang watched this scene not feeling angry but rather amused.

He made a gesture of invitation, and they both picked up the guns. Yu Minglang fired a shot into the sky as a gesture, not meaning to take advantage of Wang Yafei. After all, he had just calibrated the gun and wanted to give Wang Yafei some time to adjust.

Wang Yafei imitated Yu Minglang’s actions, firing a shot to get a feel for it before starting a rapid-fire shooting spree.

Yu Minglang watched him fire without showing any emotion, his face calm.

But Xiao Qian could sense a restrained temperament from Yu Minglang. She could tell the difference between them from a third-party perspective. Wang Yafei was indeed excellent, but he displayed too much of his edge.

Yu Minglang stood there, unpretentious yet giving off an unfathomable feeling.

Being sharp-edged wasn’t a bad thing; many people had that ability. But when someone’s skill reached a certain level, they could attain the kind of restraint Yu Minglang had. Xiao Qian knew his abilities; he could have excelled in his work with his sharp edge.

But in his work, Yu Minglang chose to be restrained, which was admirable. Xiao Qian thought that such an outstanding man had already been conquered by her and she felt a sense of triumph in her heart.

Wang Yafei finished his shooting rapidly, just like Yu Minglang had earlier, hitting all the balloons. The air gun vendor’s face turned green again.

It’s over; they can’t go on like this, losing so much money.

Now it was Yu Minglang’s turn.

After finishing his shooting, Wang Yafei felt incredibly relieved.

All day, he had been harboring a nameless anger. He just wanted to see what Yu Minglang had to say. Today, this man had trampled all over his dreams with a high and mighty attitude. At this moment, he only wanted to prove to Yu Minglang that if he wasn’t sick, he wouldn’t be worse than anyone else!

Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang, thinking that the best situation currently would be a draw.

After all, their opponent had hit all targets. If Xiao Qiang didn’t have a huge advantage, then they would fall into a passive situation.

Just having ended his teenage years and become a man, would Yu Minglang back down?
