Ski Into Love (Hush, the king is hibernating) [Requested]

Part 25

Chapter 25: Awkward

These snow boots were hard to come by, especially in women's sizes.

Finding a pair of women's boots in this style was even more challenging.

Hua Yan had paid a premium of over 3,000 yuan for hers.

But money wasn't the issue.

This wasn't about money.

The main problem was that it affected team unity.

Wei Zhi had never seen anything like this before—

Forcibly taking a new pair of shoes from one girl to sell to another?

If she were Hua Yan, she might already have a knife in her hand.

What made it worse was that Wei Zhi didn't know what to say in this situation—

Option 1: "This belongs to someone else. Don't make decisions for others. I can't accept it."

How bitchy.

Option 2: "I don't want them. Give them back to her!"

Still quite bitchy.

Option 3: "Wah, what are you doing? I can't just take someone else's things."

...That would be bitchy beyond belief.

So Wei Zhi, ignoring the man's illogical reasoning, stood up nervously. She wiped her hands on her pockets and said seriously, "No, she's been waiting for these shoes for a long time. How can you just take them away? This is robbery."

Shan Chong didn't understand her logic about "robbery."

He glanced back at Hua Yan, then turned to the young girl, frowning as he emphasized, "We're going to pay for them."

After spending so much time in the snow gear store unable to choose a suitable pair from so many brands, suddenly a pair of Deeluxe boots appeared—stylish, medium stiffness, and the right size. Wasn't this a godsend?

What was this kid still hesitating about?

Wouldn't it be better to buy the boots quickly and go home for dinner?

...Was she worried about the price?

That couldn't be right.

She had been eyeing a pair of ski pants earlier that cost nearly 3,000 yuan, looking eager to buy them.

Weren't these snow boots a better value for money than clothes?

Shan Chong said, "Stop dawdling."

Amidst the man's growing impatience, Wei Zhi looked desperately at Hua Yan, thinking, "Sister, you've seen it all. I've been crouching there quietly the whole time, not saying a word. I didn't have any bad intentions of snatching your shoes! None at all!"

Shan Chong: "?"

Seeing the young girl acting like a mute quail, Shan Chong wasn't very pleased.

"Why are you looking at her? I have several pairs of this brand. I know the sizing situation. If her foot can fit into a size 225, I'll change my surname to Hua."

As he spoke, he bent down to pick up the snow boots that had been placed on the ground. He turned and walked to Hua Yan, put down the shoes, and said concisely, "Let's make a bet."

Hua Yan looked confused. "Bet on what?"

Shan Chong: "If your foot doesn't fit, starting tomorrow, I'll teach you to jump... double 720, right?"
