Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Playing with a Beanbag, and Getting Bumped on the Head

Thank heavens, finally a chance to get rich and live a better life. Today, not only could I shed my virginity, but also with two at once—I've always heard city folks were open-minded, but seeing is believing, and it turns out to be true.

Ye Qiu happily followed Tang Guo, though he feigned reluctance on his face, his heart was dancing with joy. He couldn't help but steal glances at Tang Guo, who would soon become the object of his affection.

Her slender figure, soft waist, and shapely buttocks were encased in faded jeans, swaying enticingly with her every step. What captivated Ye Qiu the most were Tang Guo's long legs—although he disliked her personality, it didn't hinder his desire for a closer encounter.

Under someone's roof, one has to lower their head, right? Being a bodyguard, one must find ways to fulfill the employer's various demands. Ye Qiu felt resigned.

However, Ye Qiu's internal joy quickly faded as Tang Guo explained to Lin Bao'er. It turned out they wanted to play a different kind of game, not the one he had imagined.

"No, I haven't," Ye Qiu said flatly.

"Aren't you from the countryside?" Tang Guo asked, seeing Lin Bao'er's hinting look, forcing her to continue. She secretly cursed Ye Qiu for not giving her any face. Given the chance, she would surely teach him a lesson.

"Yes. We barely had enough to eat, let alone time to play games," Ye Qiu said dismissively. Though life in the mountains was spiritually poor, it was materially rich. Wild game was plentiful, and everyone was skilled in hunting, eating most of what they caught. But Ye Qiu had no intention of playing games with these two kids.

"Didn't other kids play games either?"

"No." Ye Qiu lied. He was the leader among the village kids, often leading them into mischief.

Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er exchanged glances. Lin Bao'er, batting her eyes, stepped forward and took Ye Qiu's arm. "Ye Qiu—think of a game for us to play. We're so bored at home."

"I can't think of anything."

"Brother Ye Qiu—you're so smart, how could you not think of something? I know you can do it, right, Sister Tang Tang? Come on, think—think," Lin Bao'er cooed, her hands naturally wrapping around Ye Qiu's arm.

"I really haven't played any games."

"Brother Ye Qiu—" Lin Bao'er's voice was sweet enough to make one feel sick, and her chest rubbed against Ye Qiu's arm.

"—Alright, I'll think of something." Ye Qiu finally gave in, enjoying the softness against his arm.

A beauty trap? I love it when someone tries a beauty trap on me.

Pretending to think, Ye Qiu relished the sensation as Lin Bao'er clung to his arm, not daring to let go until he gave an answer. He had played many games in his childhood, such as "Eagle Catching Chickens," hopscotch, jump rope, and beanbag toss. Given their ages, beanbag toss seemed most suitable. It would be silly for a grown man and two women to jump rope, although Ye Qiu was curious to see how Lin Bao'er looked while jumping rope.

"Let's play beanbag toss," Ye Qiu said.

"Beanbag toss? What's that?" The two women looked puzzled. Growing up in wealthy families, they had never heard of such a game.

"Beanbag toss is, as the name suggests, tossing a bag filled with beans. The game requires coordination of hands, eyes, and feet. It's a variant of throwing stones in battle and needs at least three players. Two players throw while one defends in the middle. If the defender is hit, they're 'out' until their teammate catches a throw from the opposing players, allowing them to come back to life," Ye Qiu explained, using three chips to illustrate. The women's eyes lit up as they quickly grasped the game's essence.

"Alright, let's play that," Tang Guo nodded.

"Yes, yes. This game sounds fun. But Tang Tang and I will be the throwers," Lin Bao'er insisted.

Ye Qiu smiled, knowing they'd make such a request. He shrugged and said, "Fine by me."

Ye Qiu found a piece of cloth and made a small beanbag, filled it with fine sand from the courtyard, and skillfully sewed it shut. Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er watched, their mouths agape in surprise.

After explaining the rules and details again, the three went to the villa's yard. Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er were excited, exchanging a knowing glance—they wouldn't let Ye Qiu off easily.

They started with Tang Guo and Lin Bao'er as throwers, Ye Qiu in the middle. Initially, they weren't obvious, maintaining enthusiasm for the new game with normal force and speed.

After over a hundred throws, their arms were sore and tired, but they hadn't even grazed Ye Qiu's clothes.

Tang Guo signaled Lin Bao'er, and they increased their speed. Beanbags flew towards Ye Qiu more frequently, but Ye Qiu laughed internally. Did they think such attacks could hit him?

Beanbag toss requires high-frequency movement, coordinating eyes, hands, and legs, similar to the mind games between a baseball pitcher and catcher. With both girls attacking simultaneously, it didn't take long for them to be exhausted, their legs sore, and throats dry.

Lin Bao'er plopped down on the ground, while Tang Guo, shaking her aching arms, glared at Ye Qiu, "No way. I'm switching out. I'll defend now, and you and Bao'er can throw."

Ye Qiu smiled and agreed. Did she really think dodging was easy?

After letting them rest, the game resumed with Ye Qiu as the thrower, controlling the beanbag.

"Whack." Ye Qiu's first throw hit the target.

Tang Guo's face stung, tears welling up. She gritted her teeth and said, "No hitting my face next time."

"Okay." Ye Qiu agreed. The next time he got the beanbag, he aimed and hit the target again.

"—Don't hit my chest."

"Sorry, sorry. It wasn't on purpose. I'll be careful next time."

When Ye Qiu hit Tang Guo a third time, her temper flared, and she charged at him, "—Ye Qiu, I'm going to fight you!"

*(PS: For those who grew up in the countryside like me, these childhood games carry many memories. I hope it reminds everyone of the fun times from our youth. Whether we were crying or laughing back then, all that's left now is sweetness.)*
