569: Chapter 567 Childish Provocation 569: Chapter 567 Childish Provocation While Chen Yang was smiling as he declined, the n and won around him also began to speak up with smiles on their faces, feeling that it wasn’t appropriate.
But that Liu Zhile, the fashionable man, ca specifically to bully Chen Yang, so how could he simply let it go just because Chen Yang refused?
“Haha,” Liu Zhile continued with a smile, “What’s inappropriate about it?
We’re just ssing around for fun, we are all friends here.” Then he imdiately looked at Chen Yang again, “Co on, Brother Chen Yang, join us, show so face.”
Liu Zhile persisted in urging Chen Yang to join, and by then, Chen Yang had already sensed that Liu Zhile was definitely setting him up.
So he still waved his hand, “Hehe, really, I’m not up for this kind of drinking ga, I truly don’t know how to play.”
Chen Yang’s refusal was very polite.
But in Liu Zhile’s view, Chen Yang seed sowhat ungrateful, and his face quickly turned sour.
“Are you sure you won’t give face to ?”
Liu Zhile’s expression turned ugly all of a sudden, which left everybody at the scene full of astonishnt.
At the sa ti, everyone could feel the whiff of gunpowder emanating from Liu Zhile.
If others could feel it, Chen Yang naturally did too.
However, he wasn’t angry, because in his eyes, a college student of Liu Zhile’s age was just a slightly older child.
Not yet part of the society, he really couldn’t be considered a true adult.
Moreover, this was the first ti he was socializing with Song Mansha’s classmates, and he wanted to maintain a good image, so he didn’t particularly want to conflict with Liu Zhile.
Therefore, Chen Yang kept smiling as he gently declined, “It’s not about giving face, but I truly don’t know how, and if you really want to play, how about I invite a classmate who knows how to play in my place?”
Chen Yang still insisted on his lack of knowledge, which thoroughly annoyed Liu Zhile.
“What a bumpkin!
You don’t even know how to play a dice ga and dare to co out and socialize?” Liu Zhile’s hostility towards Chen Yang was no longer hidden, as it ca fully into the open with a look of disdain in his eyes.
Liu Zhile’s unhidden hostility instantly angered Mansha, who was sitting next to Chen Yang.
“Liu Zhile!
How can you speak like that?
Just because soone doesn’t know how to play dice gas doesn’t make them a bumpkin.
Do you think you’re amazing because you can play?” Mansha retorted angrily.
“I never said I was amazing!
But your boyfriend is going too far.
It’s my birthday today, what’s wrong with inviting him to play a few rounds?
Can’t he learn if he doesn’t know?” Liu Zhile replied with equal fury.
“You…”
Mansha found it hard to swallow this insult and was about to burst out.
But Chen Yang simply smiled and stopped her from getting angry.
“Well, that’s true, if I don’t know, I can learn.
So, teach how to play now, and I’ll play a few rounds with you,” Chen Yang said, stopping Mansha, and agreed with an unchanged expression.
The mont before he had been filled with anger, Liu Zhile suddenly showed a triumphant smile as Chen Yang agreed.
“Hehe, that’s more like it.
Coming to my party and not giving any face, how else can we be friends?” Liu Zhile said with a smug smile, and then he took over two sets of dice to teach Chen Yang on the spot.
Chen Yang wasn’t familiar with these gas, but the rules were not complex.
Each person had a dice cup with five dice in it, and then they would call out numbers to each other.
The goal was to guess how many of a certain number there were in total when adding both players’ dice together, with fairly simple rules.
Chen Yang learned it quickly.
“Hmm, this ga really isn’t difficult,” Chen Yang nodded after understanding it.
Hearing this, Liu Zhile imdiately laughed.
The ga seed simple, but the nuances of playing it were nurous, and soon you’ll be the one crying.
Liu Zhile thought proudly to himself, “Since it’s not difficult, let’s just start.”
“But before we begin, let’s agree on the rules.
The loser has to circle the table corner three tis and call the winner ‘Daddy’.
Do you dare?” As he ntioned the rules, Liu Zhile’s face took on a provocative look.
At this mont, his inner thoughts were fully exposed.
After all was said and done, it wasn’t really about face-saving at all; it was clearly an attempt to embarrass Chen Yang on purpose.
“This is getting interesting, Liu Zhile is trying to show Chen Yang who’s boss.”
“The sll of gunpowder is so strong, there’s extra jealousy when love rivals et.”
“It’s over, Liu Zhile is a dice ga master; Chen Yang won’t be able to save face.”
…
As Liu Zhile laid out the rules, the reactions among the other students present varied.
Those who had good relations with Liu Zhile laughed, ready to watch Chen Yang make a fool of himself.
Those who felt Liu Zhile was being excessive frowned deeply, thinking his actions were really too much.
Song Mansha and Nizi’s cheeks were particularly red with anger.
“Liu Zhile!
You’re being too much of a bully.
Knowing that Chen Yang can’t play, yet you still impose such a harsh punishnt?
What exactly are you trying to do?” Song Mansha couldn’t contain her anger and lashed out at Liu Zhile.
Nizi’s face also turned red: “Chen Yang, don’t play his ga.
He’s just trying to make you look bad on purpose.
Let’s go; we’re not staying here.”
Nizi, furious, grabbed Chen Yang, ready to leave the place, not wanting to stay any longer.
Liu Zhile could disregard what others said.
But seeing Nizi about to leave with Chen Yang made him anxious.
He had set his trap; if Chen Yang walked away now, wouldn’t all his efforts be wasted?
So he imdiately reached out to block Nizi’s way.
“Nizi, we agreed to celebrate my birthday together; why are you leaving now?
It’s just a ga, isn’t it?
If he’s a coward, too scared to play, then just say it.
I’m not forcing him to play!” Towards the end of his sentence, Liu Zhile’s face was full of provocation as he glanced at Chen Yang.
The ssage was clear: today, either you take on, or you just admit you’re chickening out.
Facing Liu Zhile’s aggression, Chen Yang remained undisturbed.
Still, the sa thought: Liu Zhile’s petty tricks were child’s play to him.
Though there wasn’t a big age gap between the two, their thoughts, visions, and experiences were worlds apart.
“You!” Nizi was livid, pointing at Liu Zhile’s nose on the verge of arguing.
But before she could speak, Chen Yang held her back.
“Nizi, we are all classmates, and it’s his birthday; let’s not hurt the harmony.
It’s just a ga; I’ll take it on,” Chen Yang rose, his face the picture of calm as he soothed Nizi, agreeing to Liu Zhile’s proposed punishnt.
As Chen Yang spoke, everyone at the scene was stunned.
Including Liu Zhile.
He had never expected that Chen Yang would actually agree; he had only thought that Chen Yang would back down and admit defeat.
So when Chen Yang agreed, it caught him by surprise.
But after a brief mont of astonishnt ca sheer joy.
Because Chen Yang’s agreent was even more thrilling than a concession.
“Ha ha ha, good one, Brother Chen Yang!
So straightforward!
You’re really giving face.
Then it’s settled, let the ga concede to the wager, and whoever denies this later is a loser,” Liu Zhile laughed heartily, his face full of triumph, as if afraid Chen Yang would change his mind.
Watching Liu Zhile’s smug face, Chen Yang smiled slightly: “Heh, don’t worry, I always keep my word.
I honor my bets.”
“Great!
Then let’s not waste any more ti with chit-chat and start straight away.”
Liu Zhile was eager to begin; dice was his specialty, and he had supre confidence!
He was one hundred percent sure he could beat Chen Yang.
