Chapter 354: Chapter 0354: If You Lose, You Must Fulfill the Bet
Qi Shijie seemed to have victory in his grasp, looking down on Ye Xunhuan with an arrogant air that befitted a winner, a contemptuous smile on his lips.
In his view, he had already secured the win, with all ten balls in!
If Ye Xunhuan wanted to beat him, he would need to sink all of them too, and they would have to travel further than his, unless, of course, if he took less time than Qi Shijie, that would also count as a win!
But was that possible?
Ye Xunhuan was merely a beginner, and Qi Shijie had been observing him all along; getting five out of ten balls in was already quite good.
In such a scenario, how could he possibly think he would lose?
"Can I just not play?" Ye Xunhuan feigned panic as he looked at Qi Shijie and asked.
"What, does Mr. Ye want to admit defeat?" Qi Shijie said somewhat arrogantly, "If you want to concede, then just fulfill the terms of the bet!"
"Qi Shao, look, we’re so familiar with each other now, let’s forget about the bet, shall we?" Ye Xunhuan chuckled with a somewhat ingratiating tone!
"Is Mr. Ye trying to back out?" Qi Shijie raised an eyebrow, his tone steady, "That probably wouldn’t be too good, would it?"
"A man’s promise is worth a thousand pieces of gold, even his spit can become a nail!"
"Besides, Sister Dongfang is a witness!"
"Qi Shao, Xunhuan is just a beginner, you’re going too far..." Qin Muge couldn’t help but step forward to speak for Ye Xunhuan.
"Qi Shao, you are somewhat bullying people here!" Dongfang Shu chimed in at that moment too.
"Exactly, Qi Shao, Brother Ye is a beginner, who doesn’t know you’re one of the best amateur golfers?" Xu Mingzhe also started speaking up for Ye Xunhuan.
"If that’s the case, then if Mr. Ye makes six balls, he wins this round!" Qi Shijie took a step back and said, "Of course, the precondition is he must have one ball that goes beyond mine!"
With Qi Shijie saying so, it became difficult for everyone to say anything more.
After all, he had taken a step back.
But everyone knew that Qi Shijie’s step back was virtually no retreat at all; he was dead set on making Ye Xunhuan kneel and bark like a dog!
"Fuck, you just want me to fulfill the bet!" Ye Xunhuan cursed, "Do you think I can’t afford to lose?"
"So what does Mr. Ye mean?" The smile on Qi Shijie’s face grew even thicker.
"I don’t need your mercy, a true man can take a loss, it’s just kneeling and barking three times as a dog!" Ye Xunhuan huffed, "You just wait!"
"Mr. Ye means to directly admit defeat..."
"Admit defeat my ass!" Ye Xunhuan retorted irritably, "Even if I lose, I’ll have to play first and say!"
As soon as his words finished, Ye Xunhuan took a club from the side and walked forward, his demeanor suggesting a solemn hero’s departure, not looking back.
In a moment, Ye Xunhuan arrived at the spot where Qi Shijie had been standing, took a deep breath, and was about to swing at the ball!
But the next moment, he suddenly turned around, "Qi Shao, if I lose, you wouldn’t really make me honor the bet, would you? There are so many people..."
Everyone’s faces fell, their expressions showing lines of dismay. Just when they were quietly rooting for Ye Xunhuan, he appeared to back down again!
"Mr. Ye, a man’s word..."
"Alright, I’ll just play first!"
As he spoke, Ye Xunhuan slowly turned around again.
Nobody noticed that the moment Ye Xunhuan turned around, a sly smile slowly formed at the corners of his mouth.
The next moment, under everyone’s watchful eyes, after aiming at the ball, Ye Xunhuan quickly swung the club!
"Smack!"
The ball was struck and flew off!
"Whoosh!"
As everyone watched, the ball slowly descended from mid-air, seemingly going in, and it was a hole-in-one!
Immediately afterwards, Ye Xunhuan quickly made his move again.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
Everyone was dumbfounded all of a sudden, staring at Ye Xunhuan with their eyes wide and mouths agape!
Holy shit, could this guy be possessed by the goddess of luck? It seems like he got them all in!
Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Xunhuan finally finished the ten balls, and cold sweat was already faintly visible on his forehead!
Soon, someone came to report the number of balls Ye Xunhuan made!
"How many did he get in?"
"Ten... all ten balls went in!" The staff member couldn’t help but swallow hard.
She knew that Ye Xunhuan was making a bet with this guy!
"What?" Qi Shijie’s face suddenly changed, "Say that again!"
"Young Master Qi, Young Master Ye also got all ten in, and... and..." The young lady’s voice began to tremble.
"And what?" Dongfang Shu was intrigued, wondering if Ye Xunhuan had hit one ball farther than Qi Shijie.
"And, among Young Master Ye’s balls, nine had the same distance as Young Master Qi’s, but the last one went farther than..."
Qi Shijie’s face drastically changed when he heard this, and he said in a somewhat chaotic emotion, "Impossible, impossible, you must be lying to me..."
"Young Master Qi, I... I’m not!" 𝔫𝖔𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝔬𝔪
"Then you must have cheated; how could he possibly beat me?" Qi Shijie could no longer keep his composure.
If he lost, he would have to kneel, to bark like a dog!
"Pull up the surveillance footage!" Dongfang Shu immediately said, "Let’s see if it’s true!"
Although this was an outdoor activity, surveillance cameras were still installed all around, providing very clear comprehensive coverage!
Someone quickly pulled up the footage, and after watching it, everyone saw that Ye Xunhuan indeed won, and he freaking won by that one ball!
Looking at the video, Qi Shijie’s face turned ashen, and he instantly deflated like a frostbitten eggplant.
Ye Xunhuan burst into laughter when he saw this scene, taking on a smug look, "Damn, I didn’t expect that stepping in a pile of dog shit yesterday would bring me dog shit luck today!"
Everyone’s faces were lined with consternation!
"So, Young Master Qi, now that you’ve lost, isn’t it time to fulfill the bet?" Ye Xunhuan hummed with a face full of joy!
Qi Shijie’s face turned extremely dark for a moment, and his breathing became slightly rapid!
"Mr. Ye, we’ll see each other around, a wise man doesn’t burn all his bridges... perhaps it’s better to meet another day..."
"Oh, so you mean you want to welch on the bet, Young Master Qi?" Ye Xunhuan snorted coldly, "That won’t do, remember what you said when I was about to give up earlier?"
"A man’s promise is worth a thousand gold, spit and it’s a nail in the board, so is Young Master Qi now planning to lick up the spit he cast out from the ground?"
Ye Xunhuan wasn’t actually going to concede, he wanted to use Qi Shijie’s own words to shut him up!
Sure enough, Qi Shijie’s expression turned even uglier upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, as he had not expected to trip over his own feet!
"Mr. Ye..."
"Cut the crap, if I lost today, you definitely wouldn’t let me off, now it’s you who have fallen into my hands, fulfill the bet!"
Qi Shijie’s facial muscles twisted slightly, and a malicious look flashed in his eyes at that moment!
"Mr. Ye, there’s no need to go to extremes..."
"No need to go to extremes?" Ye Xunhuan snorted coldly, "What did you say when I wanted to concede earlier?"
"Shu, you are the witness, the intermediary!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Dongfang Shu glanced at Young Master Qi lightly, "Young Master Qi, since you lost, you should fulfill the bet!"
