781 Too Early To Be Happy
Shen Hanxing had missed the target! She actually missed the target! Lu Shaoyang would have laughed out loud if he was not rational. He could not help but smile and said, “I saw Mrs. Ji’s imposing manner and thought that it would be a stunning result.” In the end, she actually missed the target, zero points! His heart was filled with joy, and he wished he could shout.
Lu Shaoyang knew that he was going to win. There were only nine arrows left. If Shen Hanxing wanted to defeat him, she would have to hit the ninth ring with every arrow that followed! But how was that possible? This also meant that his worst result would be second place, and he could get five million! If he was lucky enough to win against Ji Yan, he would be in the limelight and ruthlessly slap the Ji family in the face! Lu Shaoyang was so excited just thinking about it.
“What’s the hurry?” Sensing Lu Shaoyang’s agitation and Ji Qian and the others’ worry, Shen Hanxing smiled. She slowly replaced the arrow with another one and said with a smile, “This is only the first arrow. The results aren’t out yet.”
“Zero points for this arrow is enough.” Lu Shaoyang could not help but sneer, “If your skills are as good as your mouth, Mrs. Ji, you wouldn’t have to worry about losing the ten million dollars bet.”
“Young Master Lu, you don’t have to worry about that.” Ji Yan’s eyes were cold as he looked at Lu Shaoyang, “It’s just the first arrow. Young Master Lu, don’t be too happy yet.” He did not seem to be in a hurry at all, nor was he worried that Shen Hanxing would lose. He had complete faith in her.
The smile in Shen Hanxing’s eyes was so thick that it was almost impossible for her to smile. She even had the time to blink at Ji Yan and said, “It seems like I can’t let Mr. Ji down.” The moment she finished speaking, the arrow in her hand shot out!
Ji Qian shut her eyes immediately, not daring to look. “Are the results out yet? How’s Sister-in-law’s result? Did she miss the target again? Sister-in-law didn’t even aim properly just now…”
Everyone had seen how tense Lu Shaoyang was when he shot the arrow. Every muscle in his body was tensed up. He stared at the bullseye and only shot an arrow after a long time. Why was her sister-in-law so casual when she shot? Not to mention aiming, Ji Qian even felt that her sister-in-law was only looking at her brother and did not even look at the target! Was she really going to lose?
Just as Ji Qian was so afraid that she didn’t dare to look at Shen Hanxing, someone grabbed her wrist. Ji Ning lowered her voice and excitedly said, “So strong! Sister-in-law is so strong! Sister-in-law is so cool!”
What? Ji Qian’s face was filled with confusion as she opened her eyes in bewilderment. The shooting range was completely silent and many people were looking at the target in shock. The person who was reporting the results not far away from the target was also stunned. After a while, he raised his voice and shouted, “Tenth ring!” A perfect tenth ring! The arrow directly hit the bullseye! The arrow’s tail was still trembling slightly. Was this reasonable? The last shot was off-target, and this one hit the tenth ring…? What kind of extreme result was this?
“This is impossible!” Lu Shaoyang’s mind went blank. He growled with a twisted face, “How is this possible!” If Shen Hanxing could win this, what would he be? A joke? A clown? Lu Shaoyang panicked and tried to comfort himself, ‘Shen Hanxing was just lucky. She can’t always be so lucky… It’s impossible for her to always hit above the ninth ring.’
As if she had heard Lu Shaoyang’s inner thoughts, Shen Hanxing did not stop. Like a merciless shooting machine, she drew her bow and shot the arrows with beautiful movements. The person reporting the results also said, “Ninth ring, tenth ring, ninth ring, tenth ring… The final result is eighty-six points!”
Shen Hanxing had actually not gotten any lower than nine points, and she had even gotten five tenth rings! Lu Shaoyang’s vision turned black and he was on the verge of collapsing.
Shen Hanxing waved her hand and smiled, “I haven’t played for too long, so I’m still out of practice.” This wasn’t the kind of result she had in the past.
“My wife has worked hard.” At that moment, Ji Yan’s warm hand held Shen Hanxing’s hand, which was sore from shooting ten arrows in a row. He gently massaged Shen Hanxing’s muscles with his calloused fingers and looked at her with an intimidating gaze. “My wife, you’re really…” He paused for a moment, his eyes fixed on Shen Hanxing’s face. After a while, as if he had found an adjective, he said in a low voice, “You really surprise me at any time.”
