After coming to his senses, Qin Hao said somewhat embarrassingly, "You look really beautiful today."

    Hearing his words, Xia Qing deliberately pouted and said, "Are you saying I''m not usually beautiful?"

    Qin Hao explained, "I didn''t mean that at all."

    "Just kidding, let''s go." Xia Qing walked out of the house and locked the door.

    As the two descended the stairs, walking together, Qin Hao caught a faint scent of fragrance.

    It must be her body scent, right?

    The two left the residential area and headed to the nearby bus stop, then took the bus towards Shanhai District.

    The bus was not very crowded, and they sat together.

    Sitting next to Qin Hao, Xia Qing felt her heart beating rapidly.

    She asked, "Is working at the roast duck restaurant tiring?"

    Qin Hao smiled and said, "It''s alright, not too tiring. We''re expanding now, hired a lot of people."

    Xia Qing: "Oh, how long do you plan to work there?"

    Qin Hao: "Until school starts, I guess. It''s better than just idling around."

    Xia Qing: "Did you apply to the Jianghai University Computer College? I applied to the Jianghai University Foreign Language College. I heard that our two colleges are on the same campus."

    The two chatted while riding the bus, and after about half an hour, they arrived at the final stop in Shanhai District.

    They switched to another bus and arrived at Joy Valley around nine thirty.

    The entrance to Joy Valley was crowded with people as it had recently opened, so there were many visitors.

    Seeing the crowd, Xia Qing expressed her surprise: "Wow, so many people."

    Qin Hao: "It''s summer vacation, so it''s bound to be crowded. Let''s go in and take a look."

    Xia Qing nodded slightly and followed Qin Hao into the newly opened Joy Valley.

    This was the only large amusement park in Jiangshan City. There had been others before, but they were small in scale with few attractions.

    Most people inside Joy Valley were kids and young people, with some parents accompanying their children.

    As they walked, they noticed that the place had not only amusement rides but also snack and food stalls.

    Curiously, Xia Qing asked, "Qin Hao, what''s going on over there? Why are so many people gathered?"

    Qin Hao said with a smile, "Let''s go over and take a look."

    Contempt flashed in the eyes of the person next to them. He had thought Qin Hao was something special, but it turned out he was no different, and with that thought, he continued tossing his rings.

    Qin Hao threw another plastic ring from his hand, and it flew out, perfectly encircling the small cage.

    "I got it, I really got it," Xia Qing said, somewhat excitedly.

    She quickly said to the stall owner in the area, "Boss, we''ve won."

    The stall owner picked up the small cage and handed it to Xia Qing, and then placed another cage on the stand.

    Qin Hao asked the boss, "If I win the crystal cup containing five hundred yuan, you''ll really give out the money, right?"

    "Don''t worry, young man, a spit and a handshake seal the deal. If you win it, you take it."

    With so many witnesses, the stall owner couldn''t possibly refuse to pay up.

    Moreover, he had set this prize out for a very long time to attract a large number of customers, and still, nobody had won it.

    The main reason was the distance and the small size of the plastic ring''s opening; the difficulty level was exceptionally high.

    The people around heard Qin Hao''s bold claim and turned their heads to look at him.

    Qin Hao glanced at the glass cup and then tossed the plastic ring from his hand.

    The plastic ring traced a graceful arc through the air and then, with a "bang," nestled inside the crystal cup.

    "I won, I really won, haha, Qin Hao you''re so amazing," Xia Qing seemed more excited than Qin Hao, dancing with happiness.

    The surrounding crowd and the stall owner were stunned. Holy crap, did he actually win?

    The young man next to them couldn''t believe it either, sizing Qin Hao up and down. This guy can''t be this lucky, can he?

    "Boss, give us the money," Xia Qing urged hastily.

    The boss still wore a smile, though it seemed a bit forced, and he handed Qin Hao five hundred yuan, "You''re impressive, young man. You''re the first to win the big prize."

    "I won this one, so I can go for the grand prize too, right?" Qin Hao asked with a smile.

    The boss''s face flickered slightly, "Of course, but I only allow three tries at the grand prize per day."

    He didn''t believe Qin Hao could win again; even those who specialized in this game might not manage to win at such a distance. To the boss, it was all luck.

    Qin Hao threw another ring, and just like before, it landed perfectly on the crystal cup.

    Throwing rings was all about controlling one''s strength and logical calculation abilities, and with his attributes far above the average person, it posed no difficulty.

    "Holy cow, he won again? This guy is too good," the crowd exclaimed in amazement.

    "This is a master, two shots, two wins, a thousand bucks easy money."

    "Incredible, he could make a fortune just with this."

    "Haha, the boss is about to cry, he''s going to lose big time."
