Rebirth Stories #1 (Book 1)

Chapter 158: Go Get It If You Want It

The two of them each occupied a machine before they started to count down. Once the game started, Murong Qiao immediately picked up the basketball beside her and started to throw it into the basket.

She seemed to have been provoked by Huo Yichen's words just now and didn't stop moving. On the other hand, Huo Yichen was in a standard shooting posture, throwing one ball out after another, as if he was doing a series of handsome three-pointers on the court.

Huo Yichen exerted strength in his wrist without looking up as though he knew that the ball was going in. However, his mind and gaze were not on the game in front of him.

He looked at Murong Qiao beside him and happened to see the other party's vexed expression due to misses. He couldn't help but want to laugh.

The game ended very quickly. In the end, Murong Qiao defeated Huo Yichen with a one-point difference.

"As expected of me." Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows proudly when she saw that she scored higher than Huo Yichen.

However, before she could immerse herself in the joy of victory for long, she saw other fun games from the corner of her eye.

"Huo Yichen, let's go play that!"

For the entire afternoon, Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen took the opportunity to immerse themselves in the world of the arcade.

From the first basketball game, to the racing car game next to it, to the body-sensory roller coaster and VR games later.

They even went to the claw machine and spent 50 game coins on trying to get a cute corgi doll.

"Is this considered spending a lot of money?" Murong Qiao looked at her empty game token bag and then at the corgi doll that had yet to be picked out of the claw machine and immediately doubted her clawing skills.

Huo Yichen watched the whole process from the side. After hearing Murong Qiao's questionable words, he suppressed his laughter and comforted Murong Qiao with a serious expression.

"Do you want it so much?" He looked at Murong Qiao, who was fuming, and asked her gently.

Murong Qiao looked at the corgi again.

Maybe she didn't really want it at the beginning, but now that she couldn't get it, it had become more like an obsession.

Murong Qiao had a feeling that it would be a loss if she stopped.

She nodded heavily, then threw in two more game coins like a gambler.

The game console started beeping again, announcing the start of the game.

Murong Qiao touched the control stick and looked at the corgi doll at the top. She took a deep breath and stood there without moving.

"Go get it if you want it." Huo Yichen's voice rang in her ears.

Then, Murong Qiao felt her hand being held by Huo Yichen as they began to control the claws..

The wobbly claws instantly attracted her attention, so Murong Qiao had no time to care about Huo Yichen, who was almost hugging her.

However, there were no claws in Huo Yichen's eyes. All he could see was Murong Qiao's exquisite and beautiful side profile.

In this position, he turned his head slightly to look at Murong Qiao. Her curly eyelashes were so close that from his angle, he could even see the reflection in Murong Qiao's eyes and her slightly red lips.

Murong Qiao's voice sounded in his ear, and it tickled his heart, making him feel restless.

Her skin was so fair that Huo Yichen subconsciously wanted to dye it with some color.
