âNo way. Look at that boyâs clothes. He doesnât look like a poor person.â
âYou canât just look at appearances when it comes to such things.â The short-haired shop assistant pointed at the swimming suit made of just a few ropes. âWhen I told him the price just now, guess what he did? He cursed and said that it was so expensive. Iâve never seen a rich person who is so uncultured.â
âMaybe he misjudged. God is fair. If heâs so good-looking, he canât give him more wealth. Otherwise, how will other men survive?â The long-haired female shop assistant said.
The short-haired shop assistant crossed her arms in front of her chest. â1 think theyâre here to participate in the anniversary celebration. Theyâre just wasting time here before it starts.â
âThatâs a possibility. Itâs almost five-thirty, and the second event of the day is about to begin. Everyone is gathered on the fourth floor.â
âAt first, 1 thought that only ordinary people like us would participate in this kind of event in a place like Henglong. I didnât expect these rich people to come.â
There was no explicit restriction on the staff participating in the shopâs celebration today.
In the face of huge rewards, many people chose to try, but they all failed in the end.
That was because this was a team game. If one person did not pull their weight, both could forget about getting the reward.
âThatâs normal. Most of the customers who come here to shop are white-collar workers, and with such significant discounts, naturally, there will be people willing to participate.â The long-haired female store assistant said.
âOn the other hand, those really rich tycoons would customize their items online or have their secretaries and assistants buy it. They would not come here personally.â
âYouâre right. Since 1 have nothing better to do, Iâll just take it as a show.â The short-haired saleswoman took out her phone. âI have to call my boyfriend and ask where he is. The event is about to start. He canât be late.â
âListen to me. Your boyfriend is an instructor at the police academy. This kind of small game should be a piece of cake for him.â
âOf course. Actually, I already know the competition rules. The two of us have practiced the course at home a few times, so 1 donât think itâs a big problem. Today, we must get our hands on the 20,000 yuan discount voucher!â
After leaving the Gucci swimsuit shop, He Yuanyuan visited some other shops for a while, but she still couldnât find anything she liked.
Because she wanted to buy both a conservative and sexy swimsuit.
Lin Yi replied, âYouâre dreaming.â
It was as crazy as hoping someone would transfer money into your bank card every day when you were sleeping at home.
Do you think youâre a cheater like me? Do you think the system will give you money just because you lie at home every day?
âLetâs shop later. The event seems to be starting soon.â
She looked at her watch and realized that it was almost 5:30 pm. Many people had already gathered on the fourth floor and were waiting at the event venue. âWhatâs so fun about that?â He Yuanyuan pursed her lips. âYou guys donât lack money.â
âBut how can something you get for free be the same as something you spend money on?â
Actually, He Yuanyuan wanted to go too, but Gao Zongyuan was not here.
The three of them stood at the edge of the crowd. Fortunately, they were not short and could look over the crowd by tiptoing.
At the scene, there were a few short girls who were riding on the boyâs neck. Ji Qingyan felt that this action was a little cool, but there were so many people present, so she felt embarrassed and only wanted to give it a try at home.
Soon, it was 5:30.
A young man in a suit walked to the front of the stage with a microphone.
âWelcome everyone to Henglong Plazaâs fifth anniversary celebration. On this day of celebration, 1 promise everyone that as long as you participate, there will be a reward. Moreover, you wonât be charged a single cent. Moreover, thereâs a chance to win the first prize, which is a discount of 20,000 on a purchase of 4.0,000.1 hope everyone will actively sign up and participate.â
âLin Yi, hurry up, hurry up and sign up.â
âArenât you participating? Why must I sign up?â
âThere are too many people. 1 canât beat them.â
Lin Yi smiled helplessly. Ji Qingyan was a classic example of a tyrant.
She was only ever brave in her own territory, but a coward outside.
âWait, Iâll go over and sign up.â
Although there were many people watching the event, there were not many people signing up.
That was because almost everyone who could come to Henglong Plaza to shop was not short of money.
Although the prizes were tempting, some people were still embarrassed to do such a thing in public. They were even more mindful of their image than Ji Qingyan.
Lin Yi counted that there were only a dozen couples signing up, and a few of them were old couples. They probably didnât expect to win anything, and were merely having fun to experience something new.
After signing up, Lin Yi returned with a flyer.
âWhat is this?â Ji Qingyan asked.
âI just glanced at the rules of the competition and feel that it wonât not a big problem. Take a look at it.â
Ji Qingyan took the leaflet and realized that this competition was similar to the obstacle course. There were several segments to it.
Part One: Crossing the river by touching the stones.
Part Two: Double jump rope 20 times.
Part Three: Crab relay race.
Part Four: Princess carry for one round.
The person who took the shortest time to complete these 4 courses would rank first.
âI donât think itâs difficult.â He Yuanyuan said.
âCrossing the river by feeling the stones. Boss you can handle this one. Simply change the stepping stones and then move on to the second task with my senior sister. With your abilities, Boss, you could easily win even if you were carrying someone with cerebral thrombosis.â
Lin Yi nodded lightly, and He Yuanyuan replied in human language.
The first and last segments were entirely up to him. Ji Qingyan only needed to participate in the middle two segments, so there was no difficulty at all.
âYou donât have to say that.â Ji Qingyan adjusted her hair.
âDo you think the boss lacks confidence?â
âI lack confidence in myself.â
He Yuanyuan,ââ¦â
Did she think that she was inferior to a cerebral thrombosis patient?
âDonât you always work out at home?â
âBut 1 havenât slapped ropes much in my yoga and Pilates practice,â Ji Qingyan said.
âEven when 1 do it alone, 1 canât jump many times, let alone when 1 have to jump alongside someone else.â
âWellâ¦â
He Yuanyuan rubbed her temples and felt sorry for her boss for a minute.
âItâs okay, letâs just try it now.â Lin Yi said.
âHuh? How will 1 try? Thereâs no skipping rope here.â
âRelax first and jump a few times on the spot. Iâll see what frequency you jump at.â
âOh, okay.â
Because she was wearing jeans, it was much more convenient for her to try this.
Following Lin Yiâs instructions, Ji Qingyan jumped a few times on the spot. âIs that enough?â
âNo problem.â Lin Yi made an OK gesture and felt that it wasnât a big problem. He just had to match her rhythm and jump.
âAs for the crab relay race, we have to stand back to back with the balloon between us. When the time comes, you just have to stand up straight and move sideways, but donât deviate from the route. Iâll handle the rest. Can you do it?â
âI donât know.â
Lin Yi,ââ¦â
He Yuanyuan,ââ¦â
