Lin Hai Ting Tao
Chapter 113 Striking Up a Conversation
"A hundred! If you can successfully invite that woman to have a drink with you, I'll give you a hundred! A hundred euros! I bet you've never seen so much money in your life!"
Schneider shouted at Zhou Yi's back.
Zhou Yi, who had been tugging at Mark to leave, suddenly stopped after hearing this.
Schneider smiled triumphantly when he saw Zhou Yi stop. He said to his two companions, "I told you, this kid has never seen money!"
His two companions burst into loud laughter.
But Zhou Yi turned around, took out his wallet from the inner pocket of his jacket, and then pulled out a hundred-euro bill, waving it at Schneider: "Are you talking about this? Sorry, I have one too."
Schneider and his companions were stunned, not expecting Zhou Yi to do such a thing.
Next, Zhou Yi pulled out another hundred-euro bill: "I have another one, look!"
He didn't continue to take it out, because there were actually only two hundred-euro bills in his wallet, and the rest was just some change of a few dozen euros.
In 2008, when the exchange rate of RMB to Euro was still 10:1, these two hundred-euro bills were two thousand RMB. For Zhou Yi, it was true that he had never had so much money on him at one time.
Putting the money back in his wallet, Zhou Yi was about to turn around and leave.
He really didn't want to play with Schneider, it was boring.
But Schneider was not willing to let him go like this. In his opinion, Zhou Yi taking out two hundred euros from his wallet was purely to slap him in the face, to show that he was richer than himself.
In 2008, Europe was also plunged into an economic crisis due to the impact of the US subprime mortgage crisis. In terms of money, the sense of superiority of Europeans in front of increasingly wealthy Chinese people had vanished.
In Schneider's eyes, Zhou Yi, who took out two hundred-euro bills, overlapped with the image of those Chinese tourists who waved banknotes and snapped up luxury goods.
Show off your wealth in front of me?!
No way!
So Schneider made up his mind and shouted, "Four hundred!"
You take out two hundred? Then I'll double it, four hundred!
Zhou Yi stopped again.
Mark tugged at him: "Don't bother with him, Zhou Yi," he said softly.
But Zhou Yi didn't listen to the advice. Instead, he turned to Schneider and said, "Can you come up with four hundred?"
Schneider was about to lose his mind when he saw that he was being looked down upon by a Chinese kid.
"Don't worry! As long as you get that chick to drink, I can definitely come up with it! But if you fail, then you have to give me four hundred!" Schneider stared and gritted his teeth.
Zhou Yi clapped his hands: "Deal!"
Mark tugged at his clothes behind him, and anxiously reminded him in a low voice: "Have you ever been in love, Zhou Yi? Do you know how to flirt? I know you Chinese are very shy..."
"Don't worry, Mark." Zhou Yi turned around and patted Mark on the shoulder, comforting him, and said to him at the same time, "Keep an eye on our money, and be careful that they go back on their word."
This kind of "judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's mind" behavior aroused Schneider's cold snort: "Don't imagine everyone to be like you Chinese!"
Zhou Yi glanced back at him and shrugged.
Then he walked towards his target.

"That dumb bird actually went! Hahaha!" Seeing Zhou Yi's back, Schneider's two companions laughed loudly.
A look of waiting to see a good show also appeared on Schneider's face.
He could already guess what kind of humiliation this Chinese kid would encounter next.
That red-clothed beauty was so arrogant even to him. Facing Zhou Yi, a Chinese person, she probably wouldn't give him a good look, and might even be more mean than she was to him.
The scene of him flirting with her just now was still vivid in his mind, and he didn't want to look back on it.
At that time, after he discovered the existence of the red-clothed beauty, he walked up to flirt with her according to his usual routine.
"Hi, beauties, can we sit down?"
Another female companion sitting with the red-clothed beauty was quite happy when she saw three young and handsome guys coming over, but before she could speak, she saw the red-clothed beauty looking at Schneider, who was taking the lead, and asked with a smile, "Excuse me, did you steal your suit?"
God bless him... Schneider didn't know how many girls he had flirted with in his less than eighteen years of life, but it was the first time he had seen a girl respond to his flirtation like this!
Especially since this beauty said such a thing with a smile on her face, just looking at her smile, he thought there was a chance, but who would have thought that such a disappointing sentence would come out of those tempting lips?
He was so shocked that he was speechless.
Next, the red-clothed beauty looked him up and down, shook her head and sighed: "Alas, you are obviously underage, but you have to dress maturely, what a little boy..."
Schneider was so stimulated that he couldn't speak at all, and his companions were shouting for Schneider next to him: "Ladies, this is the main player of the Dortmund u19 youth team..."
Before he finished speaking, the other party looked adoring: "Really? The main player of the Dortmund u19 youth team! That's great!"
Hearing her cheer, hope rekindled in Schneider's heart, and the companion who introduced his identity also looked proud - no matter how beautiful a woman is, she worships celebrities.
Although Schneider was not too famous compared to the first-team stars, he believed that in front of those ordinary women, he was enough to be someone.
But then, the beautiful woman's bright smile had not faded, but she uttered the voice of the devil: "That's great, I hate athletes the most! Your mindless appearance really fits my impression of athletes with muscles in their brains! Goodbye!"
After speaking, she turned around and directly showed the back of her head to the other party.
Schneider and the three of them stood there dumbfounded, like petrified.
The two female companions of the red-clothed beauty laughed out loud when they saw them like this.
This made them even more embarrassed... so they had to run away in disgrace.
Unexpectedly, they ran into Zhou Yi and Mark.
Mark was nothing more than a punching bag for him to vent his anger on. But where did that damned Chinese kid come from?
But his good luck has come to an end, and the next thing is to appreciate how he is rejected by the red-clothed beauty!
※※※
"Were you too mean to that boy just now? Actually, he's quite cute... Look how sad he was when he left..." The blonde beauty looked regretful.
"You're really not picky. How can he be cute looking like that?" The red-clothed beauty curled her lips. "Whether it's his clothes, his words and deeds, including his hairstyle, they all reveal one word - childish!"
"Okay, you're always right... but this time I promise, a really cute boy is coming!" The blonde beauty even licked her lips. "Oh, a cute Asian boy!"
She deliberately lowered the slit in the front of her chest, and leaned her body forward slightly, revealing the deep career line inside, luring the cute Asian boy.
The red-clothed woman shook her head helplessly when she saw her companion like this. Her companion was good in every way, but she had too many tastes in male companions, and she was too fond of everything. She could eat everything, and she really had nothing in common with her in this regard.
Asian?
The sizes are different, right?
※※※
When Zhou Yi was walking towards his target, he found that a blonde woman at the same table as the target seemed to have noticed him first. She not only lowered the neckline of her chest, but also licked her lips towards him. Even if Zhou Yi had never been in love, he could see clearly the obvious teasing and temptation.
But at this time, he was not happy that he was charming and could attract the favor of a beauty in the bar.
On the contrary, he was regretting that the target was not this blonde woman, so that he could easily get four hundred euros!
He ignored the blonde woman who kept sending him teasing messages, and walked straight to the red-clothed woman, ready to say hello and then directly state his purpose.
"Hi, hello..."
But he was stunned as soon as he opened his mouth.
Likewise, the other party was also stunned.
"It's you?!"
The two of them shouted almost in unison.
The blonde woman next to her was also surprised: "What? Do you know each other?"
The red-clothed woman named Cortana Wagner looked at Zhou Yi sitting across from her and said, "My brother's teammate, currently staying at my house."
"What a coincidence!" The blonde woman exclaimed.
"Yeah, what a coincidence, both times I've met athletes who have nothing but muscles and sex in their brains." Cortana rolled her eyes. "I thought you would be a little more honest, Chinese boy, I didn't expect you to play the trick of flirting with women in bars."
The last time Zhou Yi saw Cortana was on the first night he moved into Mark's house, and he had never seen her since. As Mark said, his sister usually doesn't live at home. It seemed that she came back to welcome him.
But Zhou Yi would not be grateful to her for this, because Cortana's attitude towards him was not very good the first time they met.
"Compared to those who dance and their bodies are almost glued together, I'm really considered honest." Zhou Yi pointed to the men and women who were twisting their bodies crazily on the dance floor. "In fact, I'm here to ask you for help."
"Help? Borrow a fire or ask for directions? I declare in advance, I don't smoke." Cortana said.
"Please help me drink a glass of wine." Zhou Yi said.
Cortana chuckled: "I have to admit that your roundabout tactics are very interesting. It's a little more brainy than those idiots who go straight to the point."
"I'm very serious about asking you to help me drink a glass of wine." Zhou Yi's expression was also very serious.
"Reason?" Cortana asked.
"If you don't drink, your brother will be humiliated."
Cortana raised her eyebrows.
Zhou Yi briefly told Cortana about the grievances between Mark and Schneider.
"So that boy who claims to be Dortmund u19 is your brother's... enemy?" The blonde beauty next to her also reacted. "In order to embarrass you, he asked you to come over and flirt with Cortana?"
"Why don't I know anything?" Cortana was a little skeptical - she was worried that the boy in front of her was making up stories to deceive her and using the relationship between her and her brother.
"I think no one wants to show their embarrassing side to others, especially in front of his most beloved sister."
Zhou Yi's last words touched Cortana. She glanced around and found her brother, as well as the three people who had come over to flirt with her just now. The three people were talking and laughing, with a look of watching the fun on their faces, while her brother was standing next to them, but lowered his head, said nothing, and was incompatible with those three people.
This scene alone was enough to prove what Zhou Yi said.
Seeing Cortana looking at them, Schneider and his companions quickly put on a smile and waved to her.
Cortana also nodded to them with a smile, and said to Zhou Yi at the same time: "Chinese boy, go buy a bar."
"I want it too, please buy me a drink too!" The blonde beauty raised her hand and demanded.
Zhou Yi knew that he was bound to win, so he happily went to the bar to buy wine.
But soon he came back in despair, empty-handed.
"They saw that I was underage and wouldn't sell me alcohol!" he said aggrievedly.
The blonde beauty laughed. In her eyes, this kind of Chinese boy was just too cute.
Even Cortana laughed - such a result was really beyond her expectations.
"Okay." She shook her head with a smile. "I'll go myself..."
But she had just stood up when she changed her mind again. She thought of a way to stimulate those three little bitches even more than drinking a glass of wine.
Then she said to Zhou Yi in a commanding tone: "Hug me."
Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, completely not expecting Cortana to make such a request.
Seeing that Zhou Yi didn't respond, Cortana simply leaned over herself and said at the same time: "Put your left arm around my waist."
Zhou Yi then understood, and he immediately stretched out his left hand. But his hand stopped above Cortana's waist - he was really not used to it.
"Put it on." Cortana ordered again.
Zhou Yi then put his hand on it. Through the fabric, his palm and fingertips could clearly feel the temperature of the body below. This made his heart beat faster.
Cortana felt his nervousness from Zhou Yi's trembling fingers and joked, "Oh, I really wronged you, it seems that it's your first time hugging a woman!"
Zhou Yi's heart was beating fast, but his mouth was very stiff: "What are you kidding! Of course it's not the first time!"
"If you didn't step on my skirt, I would believe what you said." Cortana reached out and pulled out her skirt.
※※※
After Zhou Yi went up and chatted with the red-clothed woman for a few words, he left.
Schneider's companion laughed: "He was also rejected, I told you! He's asking for trouble!"
Schneider also had a smug smile on his face.
But soon Zhou Yi came back, and after two sentences, Schneider's eyes widened, what did he see?
He saw that Zhou Yi actually hugged the red-clothed woman! My God!
This kid!
How could he do it?!
The two companions next to him were still laughing at Zhou Yi before, but now they also opened their mouths wide and stared at Zhou Yi dumbfounded.
Mark was also very surprised, but what surprised him was not that Zhou Yi had successfully hooked up with her, but because the person who Zhou Yi hooked up with was actually his... sister?!
