Chapter 745 Given
Zhang Tao laughed as he spoke those words, but then realized that what he just said was quite obvious. Even someone who wasn’t from around here could tell he seemed to be pressuring the other person to win the championship.
It was as if winning the championship would grant them some prize - his acting was so bad that the waitress found it amusing. Well, this guy wasn’t quite like what she had imagined; why was he so straightforward?
Regardless, they eventually agreed to strive for the championship in the game, and after exchanging glances, they settled down in their seats.
The game officially began and as the waitress ushered in the start, both stopped talking and just looked at each other plainly, no emotions in their eyes - and that was particularly hilarious.
Tang Yuchan kept it in for as long as she could. Whenever she felt like she was about to burst, she remembered the other’s encouragement, telling herself she must impress him. Believing in her own strength, she forcibly held back her laughter for what seemed like forever, with no concept of how many minutes had passed.
For some reason, time was crawling by, perhaps because the two were locked in eye contact. However, his eyes seemed to contain many emotions she couldn’t understand. If she delved into them, she’d find something amiss that made her heart flutter, more enticing than the prize itself.
In the final seconds, she couldn’t help but burst into laughter; Tang Yuchan just couldn’t hold it in anymore. Continuing to hold it in might’ve caused internal damage. It wasn’t worth pushing herself to extremes for a small reward, so she let out a laugh, and it was so loud that Zhang Tao couldn’t help joining in with a hearty laughter.
Having someone like a little sun beside him made it utterly impossible to ignore her influence. Carried away by her joy, he laughed along, feeling truly happy. So what if they lost? As long as they were happy, that was what mattered. They could always buy that small prize another time; besides, winning wasn’t really part of Zhang Tao’s plan.
Without the prize, it was just a charming interlude, one that accelerated the warmth between them. It was already excellent, feeling that they were gradually getting to know each other, cherishing this fleeting period of flirtation, and he was grateful to the waitress for that.
"Oh, it’s such a pity, just a few seconds shy, and you would have succeeded," the waitress said regretfully. But there was nothing to be done; a loss was a loss, and it wouldn’t do to cheat. However, she felt that they shouldn’t go unrewarded, and so she added, "Don’t worry, even though you didn’t succeed, what does it matter? You persevered for so long that you deserve a gift."
