263: Chapter 241: Little Wang, the Shooting Prince 263: Chapter 241: Little Wang, the Shooting Prince And at that time, the doorbell rang, which puzzled Li Chen since visitors were rare at the villa under normal circumstances. “It must be Manman.” Lin Xiaoxiao went to open the door, and sure enough, a youthful girl stood at the doorway. Manman at the door, looking at Lin Xiaoxiao as she opened it, was startled for a moment, then immediately became joyful. “Xiaoxiao, your acne has cleared up!” “Yes!” Lin Xiaoxiao was overjoyed and quickly pulled Manman inside. “I even went out to get some traditional medicine, said to be very helpful for healing acne, but I didn’t expect it would be unnecessary.” Manman took out a porcelain bottle that indeed contained some strange and curious medicines. However, this also showed that Manman was truly a good friend to Lin Xiaoxiao; otherwise, Lin Xiaoxiao wouldn’t have sought out traditional remedies for such a peculiar illness. “Xiaoxiao, your classmate?” Li Chen asked with a smile from the side. “Yeah, my roommate.” Lin Xiaoxiao laughed, “Let me introduce him, this is my brother-in-law, Li Chen, and he’s the one who cured the acne on my face.” “What?” Manman was astonished, gazing at Li Chen who was standing there; she hadn’t expected Li Chen to be the healer. Manman knew how she’d accompanied Lin Xiaoxiao to countless hospitals before without any success. No one could cure the condition, and there were no signs of improvement. The acne seemed to multiply, and just yesterday, when she left, Xiaoxiao’s face was still covered in acne. Yet, unexpectedly, in less than a day, Xiaoxiao’s acne was gone. “How long did the treatment take? It’s unbelievable.” Manman exclaimed in amazement, her eyes surveying Li Chen with curiosity. “Haha, my brother-in-law is amazing. The whole process didn’t even take an hour,” Lin Xiaoxiao said happily, “He boiled a type of traditional medicine and applied it to my face, and it was all better.” Li Chen smiled faintly, as if to acknowledge the praise. “Then your brother-in-law is a God of medicine,” Manman exclaimed admiringly, her eyes filled with interest. “I’ve studiously learned a little in the past, and it just so happens that I knew how to treat Xiaoxiao’s condition, but as for other diseases, I’m not necessarily knowledgeable.” Li Chen chuckled, “You two chat, I’ll go tidy up a bit.” Having said that, Li Chen went to put away the previously used pots and stoves. In the meantime, Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman sat down on the sofa and started chatting away. “Manman, I really have to thank you for these past days. If it weren’t for you keeping me company, I would’ve been bored to death.” “It’s fine, aren’t we good sisters?” Manman smiled slightly, “If I don’t accompany you, who will?” Lin Xiaoxiao laughed, “I’ve been so cooped up these days, let’s go out and have some fun.” “You really should get out and take a break. Staying at home all these days must have been hard on you.” Manman, holding Lin Xiaoxiao’s hand, suggested, “Let’s go to the Arcade, haven’t you always wanted to go?” “The Arcade? Sure.” Lin Xiaoxiao said with excitement. “Brother-in-law, we’re going to the Arcade, are you coming with us?” Lin Xiaoxiao asked Li Chen. “I won’t go, you two have fun,” Li Chen said with a faint smile. The Arcade? That was something he had grown tired of and would rather rest, waiting for Little Yiyi to come back in the evening, and then they could play some interesting games. He had been looking forward to the evening’s arrival. “Brother-in-law, how can you not go?” Lin Xiaoxiao jumped up, went over to Li Chen, and began pulling him, “Come on, come on, let’s go out and have fun together, as if you were keeping us company.” “Alright,” Li Chen said with a hint of resignation. ... Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman took Li Chen with them, heading straight to the walking street’s Arcade. Upon entering the Arcade, it was bustling with people, and the various gaming machines were laid out all around. Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman immediately exchanged for a lot of Game Coins and then, looking at all the different games available, were momentarily unsure which to play first. “Let’s play that one,” Manman’s eyes lit up, pointing at the basketball machine that stood unoccupied. “Sure,” Lin Xiaoxiao, interested in everything, agreed, and they went to the basketball machine, with Li Chen following behind. The game on this basketball machine was simple: score baskets within a set time limit to increase Time and Points, and sinking shots would extend the gameplay duration. Theoretically, if you were skilled enough, you could play endlessly, but of course, you’d have to be perfect with your shots. “I’ll go first.” Lin Xiaoxiao was brimming with confidence as she inserted the Game Coin to start playing basketball. She picked up a ball and, aiming at the hoop, threw it, only for it to “plunk” accurately off the rim. Lin Xiaoxiao then picked up another ball, and unsurprisingly, it hit the rim again. Li Chen watched with a chuckle, thinking Xiaoxiao was a real Iron Queen, with her shots seemingly aimed right at the rim. Lin Xiaoxiao, refusing to give up, tried several more shots, but none of them went in. Meanwhile, the timer was ticking down the seconds, and not much time was left. Passersby, seeing the score still at zero, couldn’t help but laugh. After all, she was a girl, and they understood. Lin Xiaoxiao picked up the last ball and threw it in with great expectations, but it too hit the rim. “Xiaoxiao, you didn’t make a single basket,” Manman laughed, “Your luck couldn’t be worse.” It was Manman’s turn; she picked up the ball and began to shoot. “Boom” The first ball, it didn’t go in. “Boom” The second ball, also missed. “Boom” The third ball, it went in. However, Manman only scored one basket; the rest were all misses. The crowd watching couldn’t help but laugh, seemingly convinced that girls just aren’t good at this basketball game. Feeling a bit annoyed, Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman watched as Li Chen chuckled, “Xiaoxiao, Manman, this basketball game requires skill.” “Then why don’t you give it a try, brother-in-law?” Lin Xiaoxiao pulled Li Chen over. “Watch closely,” Li Chen said as he took a Game Coin and dropped it in, then picked up a basketball and began shooting. “Clang” The first ball, a direct hit. The sound from the basket was crisp. Li Chen then picked up the second ball and shot again, hitting the target once more. The third ball, hit. The fourth ball, hit. The continuous “clang” of successful shots rang out from the machine, and before long, it started to flash various colors. Li Chen’s points had now surpassed one hundred. The crowd began to take notice of the impressive shooting and started to gather around. Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman were both dumbfounded as they watched Li Chen. Was his shooting always this incredible? Li Chen kept playing, effortlessly grabbing the ball and sinking it into the net. The rhythmic “clangs” were constant, as if he had a built-in targeting device. With joyful, flashing sounds, the machine showed Li Chen’s score had reached three hundred. And now, the hoop began to move slowly from side to side. The machine was designed to start moving the hoop once a certain score was achieved. Initially it moves slowly, but later, it speeds up considerably. More and more onlookers joined the crowd, all in awe of Li Chen’s performance. They couldn’t help but exclaim at his amazing skill. The record displayed on the machine was 1120 points, signifying that the highest anyone had ever scored was 1120 before failing. Everyone wondered whether he could break the record. By Li Chen’s side, Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman watched his steady, rhythmic maneuvers. Every shot he took always found its way into the hoop. As for time, since Li Chen had maintained a perfect record, his initial 60 seconds had risen to 90 seconds. That was an extra 30 seconds. “Clang” Li Chen scored again, his points breaking 500. The machine flashed again, and the hoop’s speed increased sharply. The onlookers nearly encircled the area, stacking up behind Li Chen. “It seems like this guy hasn’t missed a single shot so far.” “Is he a basketball player?” “Could he break the record?” The people behind him murmured among themselves while Li Chen continued to shoot uninterrupted, his score steadily increasing from 500 to 600, then 700, and now reaching 900. The hoop was moving rapidly, yet Li Chen’s shots remained unerringly accurate, each one landing in the net. As for time, his 90 seconds had astonishingly stretched to around 200 seconds. The crowd was truly astounded. At this rate, breaking the record was merely a matter of time. Everyone began to get excited, pondering if he might actually set a new record. “Clang” Another shot, and Li Chen’s score broke through 1000. The hoop’s speed increased again. At this speed, it would be quite difficult for the average person to score. However, with a flick of the wrist, Li Chen sent another ball through the hoop, eliciting gasps of astonishment from the crowd. It wasn’t long before his points reached 1110, and with the next shot, he broke the record. The audience erupted in applause. This guy was truly impressive. Lin Xiaoxiao and Manman were both stunned, with Lin Xiaoxiao dumbfounded by the realization that Li Chen seemed to excel at everything. Why was that? Li Chen’s shooting spree continued, the onlookers so packed together that there was no way through. In any event, if you can take something to the extreme, it will garner admiration. That was the truth. For instance, there was a saying, “If you want to be someone, be Edison Chen, but remember to bring a camera if you’re open,” a teasing remark, but many people envied Edison Chen. So it goes to show, if you’re dedicated to something, you can achieve success. Li Chen’s score kept breaking through, the hoop’s speed accelerating to where it was almost flying. The people around could barely keep up with their eyes, yet Li Chen continued unwaveringly, hand after hand, ball after ball getting sunk into the hoop. This time, the onlookers were truly shocked. Damn, was this guy even human? Li Chen’s score kept soaring, startlingly reaching over 7000, and he hadn’t missed a single shot.
