"Alright, let's have another go!"
Gao Wen gritted her teeth, then purchased another dozen hoops!
This time the gang was more cautious. Nobody threw casually as they worked hard to find the right technique.
Having gathered such a crowd in a short time, the surrounding audience grew larger too. Most of them were parents with kids, entertaining themselves by watching the university students' attempts at throwing hoops.
"Let me do it." Little Gen stepped forward slowly after taking a deep breath.
At that moment, everyone's attention was focused on him, which caused him to start breathing raggedly.
"Watch carefully. It's time to witness a miracle!" The hoop left Little Gen's hand.
The hoop bounced a few times on the floor, then rolled a few wobbly circles, finally landing on a toy box.
However, it only touched a corner of it so it was not counted.
"Sigh, just a step away. What a pity," Little Gen sighed regrettably.
Following that, everyone took their turns at it. They were all ambitious, looking down at the trash placed in the front. That caused them to hit nothing at all.
"Damn It!"
They muttered a curse under their breath, then turned around to leave without looking back.
"What's that? Leaving without even scoring anything? That's too embarrassing. Boys need to put in the effort for the girls. Don't let the girls look down on you," The stall owner shouted from way back.
Seeing that he was being ignored, the stall owner caused a scene. "That little kid just scored a racing car. Could it be that you can't compare to a kid? There're so many eyes watching!"
"F*cking idiot!"
"Ignore him. He's just goading us."
"Of course I know he's goading us, but it still feels bad. Just look at that face!"
"I can't bear with this either. We shouldn't have even started in the first place. What a waste of money!"
The gang's originally good mood was tarnished by the experience, which led to their darkening moods.
Ye Lingchen frowned a little. It started as entertainment where everyone just looked for some fun, but now they not only lost their money, they were insulted as well. That owner was going over the line.
At first, he did not want to act, but that owner was just too much of a jerk.
For him to throw the hoops was equivalent to letting him take a free pick of the items. He had no interest in such an activity, hence he left Little Gen and the rest to try it themselves. It was, after all, a form of entertainment for them.
