"Now, let's start!" Chaeyoung said before lifting the bow. Lisa then nooked the arrow and held it for Chaeyoung.

The couple was in a very loving position. Chaeyoung was inside Lisa's arms holding the bow as Lisa wrapped her hands around her, holding the string for her.

Everyone stood there dumbfounded.

Just what was this situation?

Why did it look like this was some romance movie where the leads are flirting with each other?

"Ehem... Ehem," Taehyung broke the silence. "Go, Chaeng! You can do this," he said when he noticed that everyone was staring at him. Taehyung was just trying to stop himself from laughing. He did not mean to disturb everyone ah.

Chaeyoung smirked at her cousin. "Alright! I am ready now! Miss Zhang, let me first apologize as I might hit you later as my sight is not the best." she smiled and appeared sincere. "Alright! I hope you will honor the contract! Here we go!"

Seulgi's face paled when she heard Chaeyoung's words. Her heart started to sink as she watched Lisa who was standing so close to Chaeyoung that from afar, it looked like Lisa was hugging her.

Meanwhile, Lisa was smirking at Seulgi and her face was full of mockery.

Now, Seulgi understood that the smile that Lisa gave earlier was never for her. In fact, it was for all the things that Chaeyoung had done.

This was the reason why Lisa did not stop this challenge earlier. Lisa and Chaeyoung must have known in advance that she just wanted to scare and embarrass Chaeyoung. They must have known! That was why they were so confident.

This couple seemed to understand each other so much to the point of knowing each other's thoughts without even talking. Just what type of relationship did Chaeyoung and Lisa have that they would silently agree with each other's actions?

She closed her eyes as a single tear fall to her cheeks followed by another. She was crying.

"WAIT!" she yelled. "I give up! You win! I will pay... I.. Don't shoot!"

"What? Seulgi? What are you talking about? Are you backing down? Are you going to pay the penalty?" Dara was the first to react. After all, she was her mother. She ran towards Seulgi and immediately hugged her when she noticed that she was crying.

"Seulgi, what happened? You can't quit. Fifty million is too much for us. You know that we cannot afford to pay out that much money!" she said in a low voice while patting her daughter's back. "Go on, just let her shoot. I'm sure she will take responsibility if she injure you."

"Mother... she does not even know how to hold a bow properly. Are you trying to get me killed? If she misses, she will hit my head. I will not only get injured but there is a big possibility that I might die!" she said. "That woman is crazy... Plain crazy... Let's just go back, we can't trick her."

"Seulgi.. hey... look at me. You can't do this... you…"

"Why can't I? I am the one who signed that damn contract!" she hissed.

"How will you pay her?"

"I'll find a way!"

Seeing her daughter's persistence, Dara felt helpless and shook her head. "Alright... we give up. We will just pay the fine," she said. This was just their first encounter and yet, Chaeyoung had already milked some money out of them.
