Chapter 1176 Heather of the Other Shore Flower (200)

But the combination of Heather and Nian Shen was simply terrifying.

At first, Heather didn’t expect that Nian Shen, who looked like a businessman, would be an ace at these little games.

According to him, he often goes to shooting clubs and regularly works out, so those games at the temple fair were just child’s play for them.

They played like big kids, having a great time.

Heather, a top assassin, was actually playing fake shooting games here. Qianxun thought the idea was a bit intoxicating...

"Amazing!" Qianxun clapped and cheered.

Under the stunned and incredulous eyes of the shopkeeper and onlookers, Heather and Nian Shen’s perfect cooperation won the game in one round.

In the end, the shopkeeper tearfully gathered a pile of plush toys in front of them, saying, "Sir, Ma’am, please stop playing... Isn’t this wrecking my business? We’re just a small business; we’re going to lose money..."

Heather and Qianxun both started to explain, "Owner, we’re not wrecking your business, we’re here to play too. But we can’t just let you make money all the time, right? Occasionally you need to lose some, that’s business, you have to take risks."

"... Damn, this risk is too much, isn’t it?"

The news had spread long ago, but doing business, you can’t not let them play either...

Is there anyone among them who can’t afford these kinds of toys? Of course not, the joy is in the playing, not truly obtaining the prizes.

Qianxun picked one for herself, then one each for Second Treasure, and Heather also picked one. They stopped teasing the owner, "Scaring you, we’re not going to sell these, just joking, wish your business flourishes!"

"Thank you, beautiful lady, thank you! I’ll give you one more."

"No need, one is enough."

Heather held a large bear, almost life-sized, which seemed quite out of character for her image.

Watching her rub her face against the bear, Nian Shen remarked, "I never thought you’d like these."

Qianxun interjected, "That’s because, no matter how strong a woman, there’s a little princess living inside her."

Actually, she wanted to say that Heather simply couldn’t be a Princess.

She’s gone through things most people wouldn’t encounter in several lifetimes, but she faced them all. In such circumstances, could she be a Princess? She had to be a Queen, protecting herself.

But sometimes, just sometimes, there’s a moment when childish innocence comes out.

"I also didn’t realize your shooting was so accurate." If she wasn’t mistaken, he had just hit two shots in one hole, Gun King Level.

It wasn’t surprising for people like them to have such marksmanship, but for him, a businessman, a club amateur, having such skills was indeed unexpected.

After playing enough, they got hungry and the four of them found an open-air restaurant to try the local specialties recommended by the owner.

Nian Shen ate for a while and suddenly raised his hand, reaching for Heather’s face.

Calmly, he pressed the scar on her face, causing all three of them, including Heather, to be slightly taken aback.

As he looked down to eat, he said, "Either take it off when we get back or stick it on better. Leaving it half on and half off scares people."

"..."

Silent...

Stick it on better when we get back...

Heather was a bit embarrassed, realizing he had known all along that her scars were fake... When did he find out?
