Lin Yi patted Ji Qingyan’s shoulder earnestly.
“Then let’s just focus on having fun.”
“But I still want that Pikachu.”
“That’s good to think about. Alternatively, you can go home and get some sleep. You can get everything in your drcams.”
“I can’t believe you actually said that. You’re looking down on me too much.”
“Senior Sister, you can’t blame the boss for this. You are the one making others look down on you,” He Yuanyuan said.
“Other than your looks and figure, you don’t have any redeeming qualities.”
Ji Qingyan rolled her eyes and thought to herself, ‘How dare you look down on me? I’ll definitely perform well later!’
Just as the three of them were talking, the host on stage said,
“Now, the registration has ended. There are a total of 19 groups of couples and couples signing up. However, because of the venue, we’ll split into two groups. The first group will have ten people, and the second group will have nine people. Then, we’ll calculate the final results according to the respective times.”
Lin Yi looked at the numbered ball in his hand. It said 13, which meant he was assigned to the second group.
Ji Qingyan felt pretty good about this. She could see that the other contestants were all playing around.
“Number 1 to 10, please get ready before the starting point.”
As per the host’s instructions, the first group of contestants stood in front of the starting point.
These people were about 30 years old. Although it was impossible to tell how rich they were from their clothes, they should not be bad either. They all had smiles on their faces, eager to achieve a good result.
At the same time, their female companion stood at the location of the second rope jumping competition and waited.
“Alright, if all the participants in our ten groups are ready, raise your hand,” the host said.
The ten sets of partners raised their hands to indicate that they were ready.
“Now, on my mark. Three, two, one, go!”
At the host’s order, the men standing at the starting point started to move.
They turned around with two pieces of wood in their hands and walked back and forth towards their female companions.
Ji Qingyan had never played such a game before. She thought that she would be able to cover a distance of twenty meters in no time even if she used this method.
However, after the competition began, she realized that the actual situation was completely different from what he had imagined.
It was a little funny, and it was indeed very interesting, causing the onlookers to laugh.
However, they were not mocking the participants. Everyone was just having fun.
The distance was a little over twenty meters, and the fastest person took about two minutes to reach their female partner.
As for the slowest, he had only made it halfway through the course. The difference in coordination was evident here.
Ji Qingyan’s gaze shifted to the second segment, which was the rope jump.
She was very concerned about this segment because she was going to participate in it too.
“Ah?!”
The first boy who rushed to his female companion’s side held the jump rope and prepared for a few seconds before starting the second segment.
However, none of them succeeded.
For four or five consecutive times, they only managed to jump three times, and their previous advantage was already overtaken by the second-place team.
“It’s actually quite difficult,” said Ji Qingyan.
“Why else would it be called the Lovers’ Fun Challenge? It’s a test of your tacit communication.” He Yuanyuan said.
Ji Qingyan pursed her lips. She believed in Lin Yi’s abilities, but she did not have much confidence in herself.
If she dragged Lin Yi down, she would be laughed at by others.
Soon, someone completed the second jump rope challenge and entered the third stage.
Although this task was a bit challenging as the balloon would fall between the two people, they could simply pick it up and continue walking, so the difficulty was not as much as the skipping rope.
There were no tricks to the last challenge.
It was a princess carry. Then, they would run around the venue and return to the starting point. After that, the competition would officially end.
After about twenty minutes, all ten pairs of contestants ended the competition.
However, there was still a huge gap between their results.
The first-place team took seven minutes to complete all the projects, and the slowest team took 23 minutes.
What was surprising was that the first place was won by a middle-aged man in his forties, while the last place was taken by a young man in his twenties.
However, the most interesting part was that the middle-aged man in his forties was carrying a young woman in her twenties in his arms. Meanwhile, the young man in his twenties was carrying a woman in her forties.
This combination seemed to be more interesting than the competition itself.
“Senior Sister, how do you feel? You’ve seen the entire process. Can you do it?”
Whoosh!
She took a deep breath and said confidently, “Let’s focus on having fun.”
Lin Yi,”…”
She was really useless.
“Alright, now that the results of the first group have been tabulated, we’ll type the results on the screen later to ensure the authenticity of the event.”
With that, the host held the card and said,
“Now, I’ll invite the nine contestants of the second group to prepare at the starting point.”
According to the host, the boys arrived at the starting point of the first match, and the girls arrived at the starting point of the second segment to prepare for the competition.
It was also at this moment that Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan appeared, causing waves of exclamations.
“That boy is so handsome, especially his side profile. It’s so well-defined. He’s so handsome.”
“That girl isn’t bad either. Be it her face or figure, she’s simply perfect.”
As soon as the two of them appeared, they became the center of attention.
It was rare to see this perfect combination of a handsome man and beautiful woman.
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan were already used to being the center of attention.
Every time she went out, someone would come over to ask for her WeChat. She had long developed a resistance to such things.
“Host, can you wait a moment? My boyfriend hasn’t arrived yet.”
The person who spoke was a female shop assistant from the Gucci swimwear store. She raised her hand and gestured.
The event’s emcee was not a professional host but rather the supervising manager of the shopping mall, so naturally, they were familiar with the short-haired female store clerk.
Even though they were on friendly terms, there were still certain rules and regulations to follow, and they had to do their best to help within the limits without violating any rules. After all, they could face a punishment if they did otherwise.
“When will your boyfriend arrive? The competition is about to begin. It’s too long to wait.”
“When I called just now, he was parking downstairs. I think he’s on the elevator. He’ll be here soon.”
“Alright, in order to ensure that everyone can participate, let’s wait for a few minutes. Everyone can take this opportunity to warm up,” the host said with a smile.
It was an entertainment activity to begin with, so no one minded much.
At this moment, the elevator door not far away opened. A man in a sports sweater jogged towards the competition venue.
“Didn’t I tell you to come earlier? Why did you only arrive now?”
“There was something happening at the school today. The students didn’t leave yet, so as an instructor, I couldn’t leave early either.” “Instructor?”
Hearing the man’s occupation, the others were a little surprised.
“Dude, what do you do?”
“I’m a combat instructor at the police academy,” the young man said with a smile..
