Chapter 422 Heated Debate in the Court
Lin Wanrong's eyes stared intently at the bronze coin. Impossible, could something like this really happen? This must be a joke! Seeing no one around, he thought to himself, ‘It must be because the wind is too strong. It blew the coin and made it stand upright. It's an accident; it doesn't count. Let me try again.’
Ignoring the coin that had landed, he took out a brand-new bronze coin from his pocket, blew on it with a magical breath, flicked it with his thumb, and threw it casually. The coin clinked and rolled a distance, and Lin Wanrong watched closely. To his surprise, the coin similarly stood upright, stable as a rock.
What was happening? Could he really be this unlucky? Lin Wanrong's eyes nearly popped out of his head. He stared in disbelief for a moment before hurrying forward to examine the coin, only to find himself both laughing and crying. The coin had embedded itself in a soft patch of mud, standing perfectly straight without even a wobble. Looking back at the other coin, he saw the exact same situation.
"What on earth is this?" he muttered, thinking about the unfortunate situation he was in. He chuckled and said, "A deal is a deal. Tonight, when it's quiet, I'll streak naked ten times around Ning'er's room. Heh, heh."
Shaking his head helplessly, he was about to bend down and pick up the two coins when he suddenly heard a faint whooshing sound coming towards his backside. Startled, he dodged quickly, only to hear a soft splatter as a clump of mud flew past him, hitting the wall with a light smack, sticking tightly.
Lin Wanrong immediately understood, and yelled angrily, "Who's there? Who shot at me?"
"What if I did shoot you?" A young girl's voice replied. "For a heartless and faithless playboy like you, it's already a favor that I didn't prick you with a needle."
A girl of about thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in green, pretty, and holding a sword, walked out from around the corner, smirking.
