Su Jing responded by saying, “I can teach you a type of magic that can be learned quickly. Initially, I intended to teach this magic to Qingqing, but since you’re single, it may be more beneficial for you. I reluctantly gave up on my plan and decided to give it to you.” He whispered the instructions to Xiao Rui and then handed him an object.
Xiao Rui was taken aback upon hearing this. Could it really be that simple? What kind of magic was this?
The effects were so feeble that they wouldn’t even fool a three-year-old child. As he gazed upon the object that Su Jing had handed him, he couldn’t help but feel that Su Jing was pulling his leg.
Before Xiao Rui could make sense of the situation, Su Jing nudged him outside. Xiang Rong had just accomplished a magic trick and was feeling rather smug about it.
Upon spotting Xiao Rui, he couldn’t resist taunting him, “Oh, are you going to put on a show as well?” Xiang Rong had a little knowledge about Xiao Rui, his love rival, and was aware that his only talent was playing billiards. Therefore, he purposely provoked him.
“I do have a trick up my sleeve, and it happens to be magic,” Xiao Rui responded calmly as he stood up. Although he felt provoked, he knew that he couldn’t back down.
Despite Su Jing’s magic trick sounding dubious, he had faith that Su Jing wouldn’t deceive him. Thus, he decided to give it a shot.
A girl in the group expressed her surprise and asked, “Brother Rui, do you know how to do magic tricks?”
“I know a few tricks, but I’m still a beginner. They may not be perfect, but let’s see how it goes,” Xiao Rui replied, chuckling.
“Then show us!” Lu Lu exclaimed, intrigued by the idea. Her hopeful expression made Xiao Rui even more apprehensive. What if the trick failed? Would he disappoint her?
Meanwhile, at Xiang Rong’s end, several people were murmuring amongst themselves.
“Is this kid even capable of doing magic tricks? It seems like he’s deliberately challenging Brother Xiang,” One of Xiang Rong’s acquaintances whispered.
“Come on, any magic trick that elementary school kids can learn can be called magic,” Another snickered.
“I bet even elementary school kids can do better magic tricks than him,” A third chimed in.
“After he finishes, should we expose him?” A fourth suggested.
“Let’s wait and see. And if we do expose him, we’ll have to perform the trick ourselves to prove it,” Xiang Rong responded with a sly smile. He was already thinking of ways to naturally expose Xiao Rui without appearing too obvious.
Just then, the door to the private room opened and a middle-aged couple walked in, with the man carrying a large cake.
“Dad, Mom, you’re here so soon,” Lu Lu greeted them with a beaming smile, looking like a little girl.
“We couldn’t miss our precious daughter’s birthday celebration. We were planning to have it at home, but you insisted on having it outside,” Lu Qinming, the father, said with a warm smile, looking at his daughter with affection.
“You, how old do you think our child is and you still want to tie her up? It would be great to let her celebrate her birthday with her friends outside. Let’s cut the cake and leave them to enjoy their time.” Mother Lu laughed as she spoke.
“No, you can’t go, stay and play with us.” Lu Lu grinned.
“Uncle and aunt, stay and celebrate Lu Lu’s birthday with us.” A few girls also smiled as they spoke.
Lu Lu briefly introduced the group to Lu Qinming and Mother Lu. Both Lu Qinming and Mother Lu were smiling, speaking casually, without putting on any airs, and the atmosphere was still pleasant.
“Are you guys doing some show just now, don’t be interrupted by us, continue.” Mother Lu said.
“A while ago, Brother Xiang Rong showed a magic trick and it was amazing! Now, Brother Rui is about to perform a trick as well,” One of the girls said, introducing Xiang Rong and Xiao Rui to Lu Lu’s parents.
“Uncle and aunt, don’t listen to her nonsense, I performed a small magic trick, nothing more,” Xiang Rong said humbly, urging his uncle and aunt not to pay attention to the nonsense being spoken about him.
“Uncle had brought the cake so we should cut the cake first before proceeding with the performance. It wouldn’t be ideal if the cake melts,” Xiao Rui said, feeling increasingly anxious and lacking in confidence in front of Lu Lu’s parents.
Making a mistake in front of them would be even more embarrassing, especially since this was their first meeting and first impression of him.
“Hehe, there’s no need to rush. The cake won’t melt so quickly, and we can cut it later. Please go ahead with your performance, young man. I’d love to watch it. I used to practice magic tricks when I was younger, but I haven’t done so in a while,” Lu Qinming said with interest.
Xiao Rui felt helpless as he looked around at Lu Qinming, Lu Mu, Lu Lu, Xiang Rong, and the others, all of whom were watching him expectantly. He had lost his confidence and couldn’t back out now.
In desperation, he glanced at Su Jing, who gave him an encouraging look, which helped to boost his spirits.
“Forget it, I trust that Third Brother wouldn’t deceive me. This magic trick shouldn’t be too difficult. Even if it doesn’t work, it’s just a minor setback. It’s better than running away,” Xiao Rui thought to himself, determined to continue with the magic show, despite the uncertain outcome. He gritted his teeth and decided to give it his best shot.
“Uncle and aunt, I’ll begin now. I’m not very skilled at this, so please don’t laugh at me,” Xiao Rui said with a smile, trying to appear calm. He then opened his left hand, revealing something to the group.
