Chapter 354 The Wicked Have Their Own Punishment
The buzz of conversation made the guy's face turn red with embarrassment. He glared at Lachlan, his eyes full of resentment and unwillingness.
"Nora, that Transformer is yours," he said.
At this moment, Miranda snorted and said something to Nora. The goddess CEO was not a petty person, but today's incident had really angered her. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
The chubby kid had provoked Nora first and even spat on Lachlan. Not only did his father not intervene, but he also added fuel to the fire. In the end, he lost the bet without any sincere apology. Moreover, he refused to admit defeat and used his child as an excuse?
Why were there so many people using moral blackmail these days?
Fine! Lachlan was an adult who didn't want to fight with your son? Then let the child do it himself!
Nora was younger than that naughty boy anyway; it wouldn't be considered bullying if she took back what belonged to her!
Nora nodded her head and handed over her doll to Miranda before running towards the chubby kid aggressively.
"Your dad has no shame! He doesn't admit defeat!" she shouted at him.
"Give me my Transformer back or else I'll beat you up! Don't make me do it myself because I'm very tough."
After walking up close enough to him, she swung a small fist menacingly in front of him while threatening him!
"No way! Get lost or else I'll punch you!" The chubby kid wasn't afraid of a little girl who was shorter than him by one head; instead, he became arrogant and rude when speaking with her.
However, the next moment, Nora snorted and casually pushed the chubby boy, causing him to sit on the ground. Nora went over, snatched the Transformer, and remarked, "What a lousy thing? I don't like it at all."
After getting it, Nora puckered her mouth, looking disgusted. She handed it to a boy about her age nearby, saying, "Here, it's for you." The boy and his parents were instantly thrilled, expressing their gratitude.
Meanwhile, the chubby boy sat on the ground, feeling like his buttocks were about to crack. Seeing his beloved toy becoming someone else's, the naughty boy burst into tears.
"Just you wait for me!"
The baldy guy's face couldn't be any more unpleasant. He pulled up his son, cast a resentful glance at Lachlan, and left with a threatening remark.
Lachlan shrugged, not bothering about such small characters. At this moment, he turned to the stall owner, frowned, and asked, "Hey, boss, where's the bronze gourd that I hit?"
The stall owner's face changed, and he walked to the back of the booth with a gloomy expression, rummaging through his inventory for a while. Finally, he took out a small gourd that was much smaller than what Lachlan had won. It was only palm-sized and made of painted wood instead of copper.
"Here!" The stall owner coldly tossed the gourd at Lachlan.
Upon seeing this, Lachlan's face immediately darkened. "Hey boss, this isn't what I won! I won that half-meter tall copper gourd! Are you trying to cheat me with this?"
Onlookers also felt sorry for Lachlan.
"That's right! This one is worth nothing!"
"Isn't this just cheating people?"
"If someone wins something specific, you should give them exactly that... "
At this point, the stall owner revealed his arrogance and shouted at Lachlan, "Who told you that if you win something specific then we have to give it to you? That gourd was just a sample on display; it wasn't even an actual prize! Can samples be as good as actual prizes? Look at the pictures on instant noodle packaging; can they compare with how they actually taste? Everything is based on actual prizes; do you understand?"
Hearing these words made Lachlan laugh out loud.
Miranda and Nora also glared angrily at the stall owner. They didn't care about the value of the prize but thought what he did was disgusting.
Everyone who witnessed it felt indignant too.
Lachlan looked at the stall owner calmly before nodding his head, "Alright then. Let me continue playing by paying $200 for another round."
Upon hearing this offer from Lachlan again, there were some flickers in expression across from him but eventually replied, "I'm sorry but I don't want your business anymore."
As soon as those words fell silent there were boos all around...
Nora and Miranda wanted to say something in anger but were stopped by Lachlan himself.
He gave the stall owner a deep look, then turned to a young man nearby who still held a set of rings. Perhaps because he was too engrossed in watching Lachlan compete with the guy earlier, he hadn't thrown his rings.
"How about I help you throw? If it hits, it's yours; if it misses, it's mine," Lachlan asked the young man.
The young man's eyes lit up, and he gladly handed his rings to Lachlan, saying, "Sure! Feel free to throw. It's okay if you miss. Haha..."
Seeing this, the stall owner's face changed immediately, and he protested, "No, you can't let him throw!"
"Why the hell not? I bought the rings with my own money. I'm willing to let anyone throw them!" retorted the young man, sounding rather aggressive.
"Yeah! You can't mess with us, you crooked merchant!" A girl next to the young man shouted.
They had witnessed Lachlan's accuracy and were eager for him to help them win some prizes. They weren't going to let the vendor get away with anything.
The crowd chimed in as well. "Yeah, why can't he help them?"
"When we buy rings, we split them with friends and use them together. Why can't they do it now?"
"You're just jealous because that young man is better at it than you."
"Are you only allowing customers to win nothing?"
"What a crook!"
"If you don't give us what we want, we'll smash your stand," someone threatened.
The vendor saw that he had angered everyone and began sweating profusely without saying another word.
Lachlan then stepped up again and hit the jackpot even harder this time by winning a valuable jade ornament.
"Hahaha... this is great! This thing is worth money!" The young man was ecstatic while his girlfriend's eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Give it here! Hurry up!"
The vendor reluctantly handed over a small stone ornament about the size of a fist while wearing an angry expression on his face.
Snap!
The hot-headed young man slapped it out of his hand immediately upon seeing its inferior quality.
"What are you trying to pull? Do you think I'm stupid? I only wanted the one I won earlier." He yelled furiously at the vendor who tried to explain himself but was ignored by him completely.
Evil has its own way of dealing with evildoers! The young man pushed the stall owner aside and, with his girlfriend, went over to lift the jade pendant.
Plunk!
At that moment, the ring landed promptly, again hitting the final row, this time on the golden stone ornament.
"Hahaha... Hit again!" The young man laughed heartily and, without hesitation, moved to pick up the item.
Completely ignoring the stall owner's objections!
"Bro, I still have rings here!"
"I just bought a hundred dollars' worth!"
"I have fifty dollars' worth, help me throw a few too!"
"Hey handsome, use my rings too!"
Witnessing the young man's "harvest," the onlookers were immediately envious. They enthusiastically handed their recently purchased rings to Lachlan. Some who hadn't bought any directly grabbed a handful from the stall, trying to take advantage of the chaos!
For a while, the ring-toss game at this stall became lively and bustling.
