Chapter 82

Ashley smiled slightly and deliberately played coy, saying, “Guess.””

Joseph was speechless.

He thought to himself, ‘Don’t leave me hanging like this!”

The people who came to this club were all wealthy or famous. Somet recognized Bryce and Ashley as celebrities and only glanced curiously, without crowding around them, despite their recent online fame.

The guns at this shooting range were very realistic, almost indistinguishable from the real thing.

With high spirits, Bryce stood at the track. “Ashley, let us each take three shots. Whoever scores higher wins.”

Ashley replied, “Okay.”

Bryce didn’t dawdle. He picked up the gun next to him and aimed at the target with a very cool and professional posture, obviously

well-practiced.

After aiming, he decisively pulled the trigger. With a bang, the bullet shot

out.

The shooting range was equipped with electronic scorekeepers. As soon. as the bullet hit its target, the nearby electronic screen quickly displayed the result: [10 points.]

Bryce fired two more shots, and the scorer displayed: [10 points, 10 points.]

So, after three shots, Bryce scored 10 points on each.

Joseph gave a thumbs up. “You’re damn too good! Every shot’s perfect!”

Bryce didn’t know what to say.

He thought to himself, ‘Nice praise, but don’t flatter me like that again.

Knowing Joseph’s playful and carefree character, Bryce accepted this unconventional compliment with ease.

Bryce looked towards Ashley with a teasing smile. “How about that?”

Ashley nodded. “Very good.”

She thought to herself, ‘His skills are genuinely impressive. It’s amazing for someone to hit a 10-pointer.

“But to hit three consecutive 10-pointers is not something an ordinary person can achieve.

Joseph suddenly interrupted, waving his fist, “Ashley, I can praise him, but you shouldn’t! Don’t boost his ego and dampen your spirit. Go on. Beat him!”

Bryce was at a loss for words.

He thought. Why do I feel like Joseph is so biased?”

Joseph was just joking. After all, with Bryce scoring 10 points on every shot, even if Ashley was a good shooter, how could she surpass him?
