Chapter 776: Chapter 0776: Trapped by Someone

"Wei’er, go for it, take down that guy."

Liu Mengting gave way to Xia Wei’er, glaring hatefully at the young man.

"I’ll do my best." Xia Wei’er nodded.

"Heh, changing players won’t help."

The young man let out a strange laugh, suddenly flung his arm, and the electric gun in his hand started spinning at his wrist.

"Expert, huh?"

Li Xiaoli’s expression changed slightly, this move alone was much cooler than what she had shown earlier, clearly a pro at video games, he had been feigning weakness all along.

"Nice observation."

The young man nodded and said playfully, "My nickname is ’King of Video Games’ from the provincial city, and I hold the record here for shooting games."

"King of Video Games? I think you’re ’King of Bluffing’."

Li Xiaoli gave the youth a contemptuous look, then leaned in to Xia Wei’er and said, "We are the dual-gun sisters, specializing in thrashing the King of Video Games."

"Interesting, let’s see the real deal in action then."

The young man smiled and began to insert coins, ready to battle.

"Xiaoli, I think we’ve been tricked."

Liu Mengting looked worriedly at Li Xiaoli.

"Don’t worry, I used to be the record holder in a certain Game City, plus with Wei’er, this video game genius, we can definitely thrash him hard."

Li Xiaoli was inserting coins and said nonchalantly, "Besides, it’s just a meal at stake, it doesn’t matter if we lose."

"But why do I feel something’s off?"

Liu Mengting furrowed her brows in concern, thinking she couldn’t find anything out of place; maybe it was just her being overanxious.

"Get ready, it’s about to start."

The already prepared Xia Wei’er gave a tense reminder and then there was a burst of gunfire.

As the match started, every enemy appearing on the King of Video Games’ screen was headshot without hurting a single hostage.

On the other side, Li Xiaoli was playing seriously, but Xia Wei’er’s score was phenomenal, though still not as good as the King of Video Games, she was far ahead of Li Xiaoli and they kept up a closely competitive score.

Liu Mengting stood between the two machines, nervously glancing back and forth across the screens of both machines, quickly comparing their scores.

As the game time neared its end, the King of Video Games was still ahead, and they were going to lose if this continued.

"Oh my, we finally took the lead, we’re set to win."

With just thirty seconds left in the match, Liu Mengting suddenly screamed excitedly.

"Impossible?"

Hearing this, the King of Video Games’ complexion changed drastically, and he panicked. He hadn’t made any mistakes up until then, and by maintaining his performance, he could definitely win the match; the opponents couldn’t possibly beat him.

Instinctively, he glanced at Li Xiaoli and Xia Wei’er’s screens and saw that their scores hadn’t surpassed his at all and suddenly...

Distracted, the King of Video Games began making mistakes, more and more frequently, his combo scores were interrupted, and his total score growth slowed down.

"We won."

After the game ended, Li Xiaoli looked at the scores and immediately cheered.

The Game King scored eighteen thousand, while their score was nineteen thousand, with Xia Wei’er alone scoring eleven thousand.

"Winning feels good."

Xia Wei’er wiped off some sweat; this really was an extraordinary performance, scoring so high on her first game was incredible.

"Haha, you still claim to be some kind of arcade king, but I see you’re just a big liar. You lost now, huh?"

Li Xiaoli looked at the arcade king with smug satisfaction.

"Hmph, you cheated. I said I wanted to challenge you and another person, but not only did you switch people halfway, you even distracted me during the game. That’s utterly shameful."

The arcade king angrily threw down the game gun and shouted unwillingly.

"This is called not shunning deceit in war. I didn’t touch your body; it’s your own lack of concentration that’s to blame, not us."

Liu Mengting said righteously.

"Exactly, exactly, we don’t need you to treat us to a meal, just hand over a thousand bucks, that should cover it for the four of us."

Li Xiaoli directly stretched out her hand for the money and proudly said, "You’re not even qualified to have a meal with the three of us beauties!"

"Oh really? You dare to cheat during the game, and no one’s going anywhere unless you spend the night with me. And you still want me to treat you to a meal, dream on."

The arcade king sneered, clapped his hands in the air, and immediately, a dozen youths sprang out from all directions, surrounding the three women.

"Wow, brother Wang, we’re in luck today, hooking three such fine chicks."

One of the youths with green hair sneered as he looked the three women up and down.

"Bullshit, three uncooperative girls, we’ll have to take it by force."

The arcade king smirked coldly, squinting his eyes, and said, "Brothers, grab them and take them to the warehouse at the back, we’ll take turns having fun."

"What are you doing?"

Seeing these people about to get rough, Liu Mengting shouted angrily, "In broad daylight, is there no law left?"

"Law? Here and now, we are the law. Take them away."

The arcade king smirked coldly. Ever since he won the provincial arcade championship, he used his usual tricks to pick up girls, but today, having taken someone else’s money and botched it, he felt terribly humiliated.

Someone else would cover for him anyway, so today, a forceful play felt quite thrilling.

"A bunch of damned jerks."

Seeing the situation, Li Xiaoli became furious and reached into her bag for her gun, ready to shoot the arcade king first.

"Stop."

Just as tensions were at their peak, a roar erupted, followed by a young man dressed in a suit leading a group of security guards wielding batons, charging in furiously.

"What’s going on?"

The arcade king’s face changed slightly, puzzled as to why these security guards would rush into his shop to intervene.

"Ladies, are you alright?"

As the young man in the lead rushed in, he asked with concern.

"You... are you the guy from Mr. An’s birthday banquet the other day?"

Liu Mengting looked at him uncertainly.

"Yes, yes, it’s me, Liu Tianji."

Liu Tianji grinned, saying gratefully, "You must be friends of Mr. Tang; I definitely won’t let anyone bully you here."

Liu Tianji had initially been at the hospital accompanying his father, and had only sent a representative to attend the banquet hosted by the Li Family. However, he received news that a servant who had attended Mr. An’s birthday banquet with the Liu Family had seen Li Xiaoli and the two women at his mall, so he immediately asked his father for permission to come and personally greet them, just in time for the scene that had just unfolded.

"Liu, Young Master Liu."

Hearing this, the arcade king’s face turned pale.

The Liu Family was a major commercial family in the provincial city, and this Orange Light Mall was one of their properties. He hadn’t expected Liu Tianji to take such an interest in the three girls, and now he might really have stirred up serious trouble.
