Bring Your A Game

Bring Your A Game Mr Chapter 675-For the sake of fairness, both of them wrote the words ‘hard work always pays’. Soon enough, both the old man and the young boy completed their pieces, and they placed their calligraphy writings on the most eye-catching spot in the store. Then, they halved the original price of the item in order to get passersby to purchase it as soon as possible.

A young man walked past them just a few minutes later before purchasing the old man’s piece. Then, the old man beamed as he took the cake away from the young boy. “The cake is all mine now,” the old man said cockily.

The young boy hung his head low in disappointment before wrapping his arms around himself. He wore a grumpy look on his face—it was clear that he was shocked by the results. Elise pressed her lips into a smile before she walked over to ruffle the young boy’s hair. “Hey, old man. Do you think it’s right for someone your age to bully a kid?”

The old man stuck his arms behind him to hide the cake. Then, he responded with a slow smirk. “We both agreed to do this, so why would it be inappropriate? You can always try to win the cake back for him if you feel that I didn’t win it fair and square.” The young boy parted his lips to say something but shut his mouth again after meeting the old man’s gaze.

People nowadays enjoy using their seniority to make themselves appear more impressive, Elise thought. He assumes that he has the right to be demanding and arrogant just because he is older. Elise didn’t wish to play along with his rules. “Sure. Let’s compete against each other again, then.”

“Are you serious?” The old man grew excited upon hearing her words. Then, he stroked his white beard as he spoke eccentrically. “If you lose, you’ll have to buy two more pieces of the same cake for me.”

“I don’t mind buying you an entire cake,” Elise replied. “Let’s do it.”

“Yes, let’s!” The old man put the cake down before lifting his brush. Then, in one swift motion, the man wrote the word ‘perseverance’ on a piece of paper. Elise walked over to take a good look at it before nodding lightly. “That’s a really smooth stroke,” she commented.

The old man held his head high as he ran his fingers through his beard. “It’s your turn.”
