"Playing for such high stakes!"
This statement not only surprised Lin Yumo, but everyone else was also shocked.
This was no joke!
"Don't be impulsive!" Ling Yun said to Xia Yingxing.
If they really played like this and one of them lost, the punishment would be almost indistinguishable from becoming the other's servant. For either party, this punishment was extremely severe!
"I don't know where you get the confidence to challenge me to a 賭戰 (dǔzhàn - gambling match/battle), but since you're so eager to serve me, fine, I'll bet with you!" Lin Yumo agreed.
Perhaps in other areas, she didn't have enough confidence.
But when it came to fighting, she would not lose!
Why was Xia Yingxing so confident in front of her?
Could she be playing the pig to eat the tiger?
Even if she was playing the pig to eat the tiger, she at least had to be a tiger pretending to be one!
A pig pretending to be a pig was meaningless!
Since it was a gambling match, Lin Yumo would be even less merciful.
Xia Yingxing saw Lin Yumo's seriousness.
She simply raised a smile.
Just now, Lin Yumo had already revealed a flaw, but Xia Yingxing hadn't directly seized the opportunity to defeat her.
If she simply defeated her, she would still be unconvinced.
Therefore, Xia Yingxing proposed a gambling match.
She had to teach her a good lesson and make her remember!
Lin Yumo's offense was as fierce as a dragon; she was extremely serious, wanting to take down Xia Yingxing as quickly as possible and win this gambling match!
However, what greatly surprised Lin Yumo was this:
Xia Yingxing was actually able to cleverly defuse her attacks every time. Those she couldn't dodge were all blocked, which made Lin Yumo unable to gain the upper hand, making her a bit irritable.
However, in the eyes of others, this meant Xia Yingxing was being suppressed.
Because Lin Yumo was constantly on the offensive and Xia Yingxing was always defending, they thought Xia Yingxing had no power to retaliate.
But they weren't completely foolish; they could naturally tell that Xia Yingxing wasn't completely unable to fight. After all, she had lasted so long against Lin Yumo; if it were them, they would probably be lying on the ground already.
"Besides dodging, you don't seem to have any other abilities," Lin Yumo said to Xia Yingxing.
"And I haven't seen you do anything amazing either," Xia Yingxing said.
You're so great, yet you still haven't taken me down after all this time!
I've given you so long!
Lin Yumo was a bit annoyed, not expecting Xia Yingxing to actually have some skill.
However, if she only defended, she would eventually be defeated.
But what Lin Yumo didn't expect was that Xia Yingxing actually took the initiative to attack this time.
And it was a kick aimed at Lin Yumo's head, so fast that it startled Lin Yumo, so Lin Yumo could only raise her arms to block.
Only when she took Xia Yingxing's kick did Lin Yumo feel how heavy the blow was, making her arms tingle!
However, Xia Yingxing's offensive did not end.
After a high-level sweep, Xia Yingxing followed with a straight punch to Lin Yumo's abdomen.
Xia Yingxing's transitions were very fast; even though Lin Yumo had the intention to dodge, she was still caught off guard.
"Second Young Miss Xia is so fierce!"
"She can actually fight like this!"
"And she's wearing such a beautiful dress; that kick just now was super cool!"
The onlookers were also shocked by Xia Yingxing, and they all started discussing.
Ling Yun's eyes also flickered; she hadn't expected Xia Yingxing to be so strong.
Perhaps she just hadn't paid attention all this time.
She should have realized it when Xia Yingxing kicked Huang Yu.
"I didn't expect someone in a dress to be so good at fighting!" Lin Yumo took a punch to the abdomen from Xia Yingxing, which hurt so much that she retreated a few steps, wanting to catch her breath.
But would Xia Yingxing let her have her wish?
Since she had the advantage, why not press the attack and beat her until she didn't even recognize her own mother? What were they waiting for!
Xia Yingxing attacked again. This time it was Lin Yumo's turn to only be able to passively defend, but Lin Yumo's defense was clearly very strained, not as effortless as Xia Yingxing's.
Xia Yingxing found an opportunity, grabbed Lin Yumo's arm, and with the momentum, threw Lin Yumo to the ground, pinning Lin Yumo's arm behind her back, and pressed her body weight onto Lin Yumo, making her unable to move.
"How about it, do you submit?" Xia Yingxing said to Lin Yumo.
Lin Yumo was clearly unyielding. She struggled with all her might, wanting to get up and fight again. But she couldn't muster any strength, because one of her hands was pinned by Xia Yingxing.
"I've already been very lenient with you. If it were before, if I didn't leave him bruised and swollen, I'd consider myself incompetent," Xia Yingxing said.
This was another unexpected outcome.
It was unexpected that Lin Yumo, who had studied martial arts since childhood, was subdued by Xia Yingxing like this. One had to know how many people present had been dealt with by Lin Yumo; they knew how ferocious Lin Yumo was.
Yet Lin Yumo was pinned down by a seemingly delicate girl, unable to move.
It was just that, for some reason, this scene had a certain beauty, making people unable to help but look a few more times.
No matter what, Xia Yingxing was wearing such a beautiful dress; just looking at her from a distance made one feel she was intoxicating, let alone her now using her snow-white long legs to press down on Lin Yumo.
Wow, wow, wow, why wasn't that person me!
Their skin was thick and rough; Xia Yingxing's little pink fists might not hurt them. They didn't even dare to imagine how blissful it would be to be stepped on by Xia Yingxing's jade feet… Xia Yingxing naturally didn't know what some of them were thinking, otherwise, she might have beaten them all up too.
At this moment, she was just restraining Lin Yumo.
Unconvinced?
If you're unconvinced, then don't get up.
"Do you submit?" Xia Yingxing continued to ask.
"No!"
"No?"
"Yes, it's just… What are you doing!!" Lin Yumo suddenly shrieked in surprise and anger.
Because Xia Yingxing's hand was already on her waist.
Then she started tickling her wildly.
Even Lin Yumo couldn't stand this.
Damn it, how could she do this!
This was harder to bear than being beaten!
Lin Yumo twisted her body continuously, trying to avoid Xia Yingxing's hand, but it proved to be futile.
"Stop… stop tickling, I submit, isn't that enough…" Lin Yumo couldn't take it anymore and said hurriedly.
Only then did Xia Yingxing release Lin Yumo.
With so many witnesses present, Xia Yingxing wasn't afraid of her going back on her word.
Even if she really did go back on her word, Xia Yingxing could just teach her a lesson again; it was an easy task.
Lin Yumo stood up, looking at Xia Yingxing with a face full of resentment.
"Then, from this moment on, you must listen to me and obey my every command," Xia Yingxing said to Lin Yumo.
"I won't go back on my word!" Lin Yumo said proudly.
"That's good. Without further ado, first call me 'Jiejie' (older sister) and let me hear it, using your sweetest voice," Xia Yingxing said.
Lin Yumo's expression immediately froze.
