BXBX NOVEL Chapter 22: Chicken Fight
Chapter 22
Seeing this, the village chief immediately pressed the timer: "Time starts!"
With these words, Ji Mochen had already closed the wooden door of the chicken coop, and everyone watched the situation inside intently.
Even a few little ones were sitting in a row on small stools holding peanut rice cakes given to them by the program team, completely absorbed watching while munching on their rice cakes enthusiastically.
Ji Ruochu originally didn\'t really like eating this, but after one bite, she was instantly conquered by the sweet red bean paste inside. She then sat down with the few little ones and ate with relish.
While these peanut rice cakes were delicious, the outer layer didn\'t have much flavor and was a bit hard. Ji Ruochu knew that with her preferences, she would definitely end up leaving the outer layer that didn\'t have much taste.
She didn\'t like leaving food unfinished or wasting it, so she hardened herself and started nibbling from the outside first.
At this time, Ji Mochen inside had already started moving. As a male celebrity who exercises regularly, Ji Mochen really had some skills. Catching chickens was simply a breeze for him.
In the blink of an eye he had caught three chickens, and at this time, only thirty seconds had passed. The outer layer of Ruochu\'s rice cake wasn\'t even nibbled through yet.
Ruochu\'s dad and the children couldn\'t help but start cheering for Ji Mochen. Only Ji Ruochu was still seriously nibbling on her rice cake, looking extremely cute.
【Hahaha! Watching her nibble rice cakes is more enjoyable than watching the chicken catching!】
【Oh my god, watching her eat so attentively makes me want to go place an order! Are these still available now?】
【I\'ve taken screenshots to find the same ones, ordering them now!】
【Ruochu\'s way of eating is exactly the same as mine - eating the unpleasant parts first and saving the best bite for last! That feeling of complete satisfaction is priceless!】
...
"Wow Ruochu! Your dad is so awesome!" The children around her had all stopped eating and were craning their necks to watch inside the chicken coop.
Not wanting to be in the sun, Ji Ruochu who was wearing a little straw hat just nodded absentmindedly. "Mmhmm..."
"Wow, four chickens caught - oops, almost had that one..."
The child\'s cheers instantly changed into disappointment.
"There are only ten seconds left," said the village chief, looking at the countdown on his phone.
The few children instantly became nervous. Inside the chicken coop, Ji Mochen also poured all his effort in. However, he had no plans to collide forcefully with the chickens. Out of the two chickens left, one could still flap its wings actively while the other seemed tired out, cowering in the corner.
Therefore, he decided to feint against the more lively chicken while actually trying to grab the motionless one when passing by it -
"Countdown, five!"
"Four!"
The children couldn\'t help but join in counting down.
"Three!"
"Two!"
Just when Ji Mochen was about to grab the rooster -
"One!"
"Time\'s u- huh?" The village chief who was about to announce the end raised his head in surprise.
What just flew by?
"Wow! The chicken flew out!"
The four children screamed and ran off together, afraid of being smacked by the charging rooster.
As for why there were only four children instead of five...
It was because one was still completely absorbed in nibbling her rice cake!
"Ruochu!"
The adults cried out in alarm and rushed forward by a few steps. Ji Mochen leapt out of the chicken coop first thing.
But it was still too late to stop the accident from happening. In this instant, the previously still and silent rooster was no longer hiding but soaring like an eagle spreading its wings.
Everyone watched as it furiously flapped its wings trying to stay airborne for a few moments before aggressively swooping down to make its landing.
So the people rushing forward could only watch on helplessly as the rooster\'s claws suddenly stomped onto little Ruochu who was wearing her small straw hat!
Poor Ruochu was completely focused nibbling her rice cake. Just as a bite was about to enter her mouth, she felt a huge force strike her little head -
Clang!
The small stool toppled over.
And the little girl sitting on it fell butt-first heavily onto the ground.
Ji Ruochu one second ago, blissfully nibbling on rice cake: ???
Who am I?
Where am I?
What happened?
The scene instantly became silent. Everyone\'s hearts were lifted into their throats, even Ji Mochen who had rushed over was frightened into stopping in his tracks.
The adults present knew that the most important thing now was not to frighten the child, because scarring a child psychologically often created worse after-effects than physical pain.
So Ji Mochen swallowed his saliva and gently called out to his daughter. "Ruochu..."
Hearing her name, Ji Ruochu looked up blankly at Ji Mochen, then at the rooster standing not far away.
Only then did she slowly come to her senses and clutched her forehead, instantly feeling a scalding pain.
The little girl then rubbed her butt. Her butt - suffering its third assault that day - also registered the pain.
The next moment, her lips puckered up as tears began welling up in her eyes.
Everyone thought: Oh no oh no...
Ji Mochen tried to go forward to comfort his daughter.
But unexpectedly, just when it seemed the little girl would burst into tears, she took a deep breath and forcefully held them back!
Ji Ruochu: Tsk - Can\'t cry. If I cry now all of it will become 1080P crystal clear visual blackmail material.
Endure it, Ji Ruochu!
You can do it! Ji Ruochu!
It\'s just a little fall, keep it in!
Wuwuwu... But it really hurts so much...
No, can\'t cry!
Have to stay strong, Ji Ruochu!
You\'re not three years old anymore!
At this moment, everyone watching the scene, where a little girl was trying hard not to cry, felt their hearts hurting doubly so.
【Wuwuwu my precious girl!】
【Oh my god! My heart! It hurts so much watching this!】
【For the first time I actually hope she would just cry it out, with the rooster stomping down on her like that she must be in tremendous pain!】
"Ruochu, let Daddy help you up." Watching how tough his daughter was being, Ji Mochen wished he could slap himself. What was the point of catching chickens!
He carefully lifted his daughter off the ground. The little girl reflexively dusted off her dirtied pants, looking so painfully cute.
No one expected that this one dusting off would instantly cause the little girl who had barely managed to hold in her tears to completely crumble.
In the next moment, the little darling who was valiantly enduring just seconds ago suddenly burst into loud wails.
Ji Mochen instantly panicked, at a loss over what to do. "Ruochu, tell Daddy what\'s wrong? Does it hurt anywhere from the fall..."
"Wuwuwuwu..." The little one looked at her hard-earned, meticulously nibbled rice cake now fallen onto the dusty ground with an egregious chicken feather on it, and grief instantly flooded her heart as she broke down into inconsolable tears.
"My rice cake!"
"Wuwuwu..."
"My red bean paste wuwuwu..."
"I finally finished the yucky outer skin but didn\'t even get one bite of the sweet filling wuwuwuwu..."
"Waaa----"
Everyone: ???
What cake?
What sand?
Comments:
【Wuwuwu... I\'m hurting for the little one too.】
【She finally finished the nasty outer layer only for the delicious insides to get kicked away by the chicken without her eating a single bite.】
【Got stomped in the head by a chicken but didn\'t cry, fell butt-first multiple times but didn\'t cry, yet a fallen rice cake made her bawl her eyes out. Hahahaha, sorry but I just can\'t help laughing out loud】
That day, Ji Mochen who had maintained a formidable image in entertainment circles for years instantly shot up to the top of trending searches.
#Ptooey! Ji Mochen you incompetent rice cake! Come out here and take your beating!
