187: Chapter 188: Big Brother 187: Chapter 188: Big Brother Ye Qiu ignored Xia Tiantian and didn’t pay any attention to the little boys either.
He acted as if he hadn’t heard anything.
He had won almost a whole basin of coins at the slot machine.
When he called Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming over, the coins they had just exchanged were already spent.
These two had no idea how Ye Qiu could win so easily.
Moreover, they were very surprised to find that no matter where Ye Qiu was or in what situation, he always seed to be the most noticeable person.
Now, even with a sweet little sister circling around him, Ye Qiu still appeared very indifferent, not paying her any attention at all.
“Big brother, can you teach ?”
Xia Tiantian’s sweet and beautiful voice kept ringing in their ears.
The little boys behind her were insanely jealous, but there was nothing they could do about it.
“Take these coins and share them out.”
Li Shen quickly took the basin of coins over.
Almost everyone who saw it got a share.
The elentary school kids especially liked how Ye Qiu gave them coins to play with.
The manager here knew that Ye Qiu’s background wasn’t simple.
Last ti, he had beaten up the punks harassing Li Qianqian and threw them off the building.
The ga hall owner and manager realized Ye Qiu was a tough cookie.
Right now, Ye Qiu wasn’t doing much—just winning so coins to share with others—and ultimately, the coins would end up back in their pockets, so it was no big deal.
Ye Qiu didn’t play the slot machines anymore but rather went over to the claw machine that Xia Tiantian and the little boys had just been playing on.
Ye Qiu planned to grab so stuffed toys to bring back for Liu Lingxiu and his sister Ye Xue.
Each ti, it required three one-yuan coins.
At first, Ye Qiu tried putting in three coins to test the pattern and probability of this claw machine.
The first ti, it was obvious—just as Ye Qiu grabbed a stuffed toy, Xia Tiantian anxiously looked over.
But right before the stuffed toy reached the exit, it fell.
Ye Qiu’s expression didn’t change, but Xia Tiantian felt disappointed; they were so close.
The little boys behind Xia Tiantian glanced over triumphantly and mockingly, clearly thinking that Ye Qiu’s claw machine skills were no better than theirs.
They didn’t realize that it wasn’t just about skill but also about understanding patterns and probabilities.
Now that Ye Qiu had figured out the probability and pattern, he could grab whichever stuffed toy he wanted, however many he wanted.
“Big brother, I believe you can do it!”
Xia Tiantian said with a mischievous smile, looking at Ye Qiu.
The little boys behind her were again jealous and angry at Ye Qiu, but he ignored both Xia Tiantian and the boys behind her.
He picked up three coins again, followed the sa patterns and techniques, but still failed this ti.
“Ha ha!”
The little boys behind Xia Tiantian laughed even louder at this.
When Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming ca over to watch, they agreed that the claw machine was indeed tough.
They had tried many tis before, but it always dropped the toy at the last mont.
Now seeing Ye Qiu’s failed attempts, it seed like he was no different from them.
Ye Qiu’s expression remained unchanged, while the manager in the distance also seed more relaxed.
After all, the toys inside were quite costly; if Ye Qiu took them all, the arcade would suffer significant losses.
On Ye Qiu’s third attempt, he inserted three more coins and, based on the feel and adjustnts from the previous tries, finally managed to grab a stuffed toy successfully this ti.
The stuffed toy reached the exit and could be taken out.
“Big brother, you’re amazing!”
Xia Tiantian clapped and smiled as if it was her who had caught it.
But Ye Qiu’s expression still looked indifferent.
When Ye Qiu picked up the stuffed toy, Xia Tiantian asked, “Big brother, can you give this stuffed toy?”
“Tiantian, I’ll buy you a bigger one outside.”
A boy from her class said.
“No way.”
It seed Xia Tiantian didn’t want toys bought by classmates; she wanted the one caught by Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu handed it over to Li Shen.
He had no relationship with Xia Tiantian and didn’t know her, so why give it to her?
Xia Tiantian didn’t seem upset and just watched with those pretty eyes.
Ye Qiu inserted three more coins.
This ti, he easily grabbed another stuffed toy.
From the first to the second, and then to the third, until Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming couldn’t hold any more, he finally stopped.
The elentary school students gathered around, and Ye Qiu asked Li Shen to give them the toys he had grabbed.
There were still a few left, and Ye Qiu handed one to Xia Tiantian.
Xia Tiantian seed very happy and thanked Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu continued to catch a few more pandas to bring back for Liu Lingxiu and Ye Xue.
The arcade manager in the distance was heartbroken, feeling as if Ye Qiu was just taking free stuff.
The purchase price for these toys was over ten yuan each, and now Ye Qiu had emptied the claw machine, aning they would have to order more.
Seeing the ti, it was almost ti for Liu Lingxiu to finish her study session.
Ye Qiu, Li Shen, and Zhu Zhiming left with their stuffed toys and pandas.
Xia Tiantian hurriedly chased after them.
Seeing Ye Qiu walking ahead, she caught up and said, “Big brother, I’m Xia Tiantian.
Can I co find you when I have ti?”
“Don’t call big brother.
I’m not your big brother.”
Ye Qiu said coldly.
The colder Ye Qiu was, the happier Xia Tiantian felt.
Because she found that even though Ye Qiu was five or six years older than her, unlike the other boys who surrounded her and showered her with complints, Ye Qiu was cold and uninterested.
After Ye Qiu and Li Shen left, Xia Tiantian and the little boys didn’t follow.
But Xia Tiantian thought Ye Qiu was probably a student from a nearby school.
Ye Qiu returned to Jiangbei No.
3 Middle School and waited under the teaching building.
After a while, Liu Lingxiu ca down from the classroom and was wide-eyed when she saw the stuffed toys and pandas in Ye Qiu’s hands.
“Ye Qiu, where did these co from?”
“Caught from the claw machine, specially for you.”
Ye Qiu said with a smile.
Liu Lingxiu initially thought Ye Qiu bought them, but knowing they were from the claw machine made it even more romantic.
Su Luoluo, who was coming from behind, almost tripped when she saw this.
She was confused why the Ye Qiu who used to seem so clueless wouldn’t please her, and now this cold Ye Qiu was trying to win over Liu Lingxiu.
