As soon as the words were spoken, the props team brought in a square table. On the table were rows of watermelons, neatly arranged in front of the seven guests.
“Alright! I hereby declare the ‘Who’s Good Enough If You’re Not?’ Watermelon Eating Contest to begin now. The first place winner will get sweet-and-sour pork ribs. The second place winner gets a bowl of beef ramen. The third place winner gets a vegetarian bun. Those who don’t participate won’t get any food tonight! First come, first served!”
“Get into position, ready!”
The guests were simply carried onto the stage like that. While everyone was still in a daze, Ye Yan already had the watermelon in her hands.
There was no time for further thoughts. The production team said, “Start!”
Then each guest started eating away, at a speed that was nothing short of astonishing. Wherever they went, watermelon juice splattered everywhere.
At first, the female guests were too shy to eat wildly, so they took small bites. Ye Yan was an exception among the female guests.
She moved. Ye Yan picked up a piece of watermelon and took a bite. In just one bite, she ate almost half of it. While the other guests were still struggling with their watermelons, Ye Yan had already finished eating her piece in five bites.
“Great! Ye Yan is first place!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked!
Qiao Anran stared at the large piece of watermelon in her hands, her mouth slightly open in a dazed expression.
He Xiaoxiao looked at Ye Yan, who had finished eating the watermelon, and pursed her lips, her expression complicated.
An Yue and Zhou Kebing remained unmoved and continued to struggle with the watermelon.
Chen Jinseng, on the other hand, ate slowly and methodically, as if what he was eating wasn’t a watermelon, but some fancy dish.
His noble and elegant demeanor is immediately apparent.
Fu Sheng tilted his head, admiring Ye Yan’s cute appearance. He didn’t even touch the watermelon on the table.
With a teasing smile on his lips, he tapped his fingers gently on the table.
“Zhou Kebing came in second! Great! An Yue raised her hand too! An Yue is third! Bang—the competition is over.” After An Yue finished eating, the production team picked up the small hammer on the table and struck the gong.
Bullet Screen:
[Did I just hallucinate? Ye Yan ate an entire watermelon?! This…]
[The sky is clear! The rain has stopped! Ye Yan is great again! That watermelon is so stunning. Which actress can compare to her? Look at Qiao Anran, then look at Ye Yan. You won’t notice the difference at first, but once you compare them, you’ll be shocked!]
[I’d call it a truly amazing feat of “Ye Yan’s skeletal strength”! How could someone eat such a huge watermelon in just five bites? If I tried to do that, my jaw would definitely dislocate!]
[Ugh! I’m dying from laughing! Look at how tenderly Fu Sheng looks at Ye Yan. Truly, they’re the perfect couple who almost had a second child together! Fu Sheng, I’m with you. Get rid of Chen Jinseng and marry Ye Yan to have a second child together!!]
………
While the haters were still arguing about it, the show’s production team had already distributed the prizes, in the form of vouchers.
Sparerib dishes with sweet and sour sauce coupons, beef ramen coupons, and vegetarian bun coupons.
After all, it’s still early in the evening, so they’ll issue the vouchers instead.
Thud—
The production team has beaten the gong again.
“In the just-concluded competition, winners were determined through fierce competition. For the next event, everyone is still welcome to participate actively and win their own dinner.”
“Now comes the exciting moment! Ladies and gentlemen, please keep your eyes open! Let’s welcome the props team!”
As the prop team brought in the props, the director said, “You need to hit the target with the arrows on this turntable. There are ten arrows available. Based on your overall scores, the first-place winner will get a plate of Mexican ham, the second-place winner will get a piece of red velvet cake, and the third-place winner will get a donut.”
As soon as the program crew mentioned it, Qiao Anran and He Xiaoxiao became quite eager to try.
Since He Xiaoxiao was once a national second-level competitive shooter, this isn’t a problem at all for her.
As for Qiao Anran, she’s acted in various dramas and has also received several months of specialized training.
Bullet Screen:
[So, this little troublemaker can’t get up this time, huh? Hahaha! My Anran is the best. If you disagree, come argue with me!]
[Tch, my Xiao Xiao Baozi isn’t some vegetarian, is she? Do you think it’s easy to get a national second-level athlete certificate?”]
[I’m different from you guys. I’m really looking forward to seeing Fu Sheng! That waist, those legs… Just standing there is like a beautiful sight, isn’t it? Who cares about the female guests anyway?]
[No words! Your Fu Sheng is handsome, but my Chen Jinseng isn’t bad either, okay? Do you even know what a top-tier idol is? You country bumpkins!]
………
Anyway, no one had high hopes for Ye Yan, as the label of “a poor athlete” had already been firmly attached to her.
He Xiaoxiao took the lead right away. Her straight shoulders, arm holding the bow, and line of sight formed a perfect straight line. Her feet were spaced shoulder-width apart.
The standard shooting posture is truly impressive.
Bullet Screen:
[Ahh! My Xiao Xiao is so beautiful! I love her so much!!]
[This person is nowhere near as good as Ye Yan. That little troublemaker probably can’t even draw a bow properly! Let’s just wait for Ye Yan to get embarrassed!]
[Black fans! The time has come to act against Ye Yan! This is the perfect opportunity for those who hate her! If not now, then when?]
[Here they come! The haters are ready! The keyboards are ready! Screen recording is set up! All that’s left is for Ye Yan to mess things up!]
………
Swoosh swoosh swoosh—
He Xiaoxiao managed to shoot ten arrows in just a few minutes.
With two ten-rings, five nine-rings, and the rest are eight-rings.
This is already a very high level.
Qiao Anran followed closely behind, though her grades were slightly inferior to He Xiaoxiao’s.
Five 9s and eight 8s – quite a good result overall.
Since An Yue and Zhou Kebing had no prior experience with shooting, their results weren’t very good. They missed five targets, with the remaining five shots being unsuccessful as well.
An Yue was still a bit disappointed. She really loved meat, but there was nothing she could do about it. For now, she could only hope that Ye Yan would help her out, as she wanted to get a little bit of that first-prize Mexican ham.
“Sister Yanyan! Keep it up! You’re the best! Ye Yan, win first place and get the ham!”
An Yue excitedly cheered for Ye Yan. She untied the scarf she was using to tie her hair, held it in her hands, and waved it around. She stretched her arms out, raised it above her head, and swung it in circles.
Ye Yan gave An Yue a gentle smile. Her face was as large as a palm, exquisitely beautiful, as if created by a deity. Her delicate features were truly remarkable. Most notably, her deep, round, and beautiful phoenix-like eyes embodied all the splendor and grace one could imagine. She was truly the most beautiful woman in the world.
An Yue could vividly feel the impact of Ye Yan’s smile. Her breath hitched slightly. She felt like she might be “bent” by Ye Yan’s smile!
An Yue covered her pounding heart. After a moment of silence, the cheering became even louder.
Chen Jinseng and Fu Sheng remained calm, seemingly waiting for Ye Yan in unspoken agreement.
Ye Yan didn’t make anyone wait long. With ease and grace, she picked up the bow and arrow, placed the arrow on the string in a casual yet precise manner. She stood with her feet shoulder-width apart, adopting the perfect shooting stance with no flaws whatsoever.
Then, her eyes, shimmering with moisture, narrowed slightly. Whoosh—
One arrow was shot, hitting the bullseye!
Ten rings!
Ye Yan hit the ten-ring with her first arrow, which was almost unbelievable. From drawing the bow to firing, Ye Yan took no more than ten seconds to aim and hit the bullseye!
Bullet Screen:
[I’m stunned? Isn’t Ye Yan a complete klutz(uncoordinated person) when it comes to sports? She managed to hit ten rings on the first try. If anyone can be that incompetent, I’ll call them “dad”!]
[Damn, I thought He Xiaoxiao was pretty impressive. Who would’ve thought Ye Yan is the real deal, hiding her talents! How am I supposed to criticize her now? Damn it! Ye Yan is awesome!]
[That idiot Ye Yan stood up? No! I won’t allow it! That arrow was definitely just a coincidence. Ye Yan pretended to do it by chance!]
Some people were shocked by Ye Yan’s actions, while others insisted that it was just a coincidence. But then, Ye Yan completely refuted their arguments.
