For so long, this was the first time the patrolling guard saw someone doing such fancy tricks with the shooting targets.
In his words, it wasn’t the doing of a human being but a pervert.
He rubbed his eyes. As he had nothing better to do, he simply watched Gu Qingjiu playing in such a manner for an entire afternoon.
She started only managing to deal with two out of the seven targets until she gradually mastered shooting down four as they changed directions simultaneously.
The patrolling guard finally could be sure that students under Elder Gong all had a perverse level of talent.
This young lady had even more fanciful tricks than Yin Ruoyi back then.
After Gu Qingjiu finished training, she shut off all the moving targets with her forehead covered in sweat.
However, she felt a complete sense of fulfillment.
Such training was much more interesting than the usual same old, boring type of training.
As of now, she could, with some effort, control four targets out of seven. Hitting the bullseye of all those targets simultaneously was something she could barely manage to do for now.
As for other people…
It was something they wouldn’t even dare to think about…
The sweaty Gu Qingjiu left the training center and rushed to the hotel in a cab.
She was staying with Helian Niancheng already.
Even though there wasn’t a genuine breakthrough between the duo, they had pretty much done everything else they should have done…
But Gu Qingjiu didn’t feel that it was anything to be embarrassed about regarding such a situation.
When you truly fall for a person, you wouldn’t mind such stuff.
By the time she got back to the hotel, Helian Niancheng had yet to return.
Ever since he stepped down from his military duties in China, he seemed to have started going into business.
Gu Qingjiu saw him bringing back documents all the time, and Helian Niancheng didn’t hide it from her either.
But Gu Qingjiu only had a superficial understanding of the contents, and regarding certain aspects to her, it was no different from abstruse writing. Thus, she wasn’t fond of reading these documents of his.
After taking a shower, the pajamas-clad Gu Qingjiu applied medicine to her arm.
Her arm was pretty much fine now, and she simply disregarded it during this afternoon’s training. It was just that Gu Qingjiu found the scar ugly looking.
Girls were all born vain, it seemed.
By the time she was more or less done, Helian Niancheng came back.
He opened the door, and as he stepped on the soft carpet in the room, he didn’t make any noise.
The cold air instantly enveloped Gu Qingjiu. She looked up and saw Helian Niancheng gazing downwards at her from a height.
Though it didn’t feel too imposing, Gu Qingjiu shifted backward as she wasn’t used to it. “Chief Instructor…”
“Mm.”
He sat down too.
But instead of casually sitting on the carpet like Gu Qingjiu, he sat down on the sofa.
When he returned today, he carried nothing with him. Guessing he wasn’t busy with anything, Gu Qingjiu rested her head on his lap and told him about her training.
“When I went training today, I didn’t feel affected by my injury. Moreover, my response and speed have enhanced as compared to before…”
“So it was a blessing in disguise?”
There was a faint smile in his voice. He lowered his head and kissed Gu Qingjiu on her cheek. “But something like this is not to happen a second time.”
“I know.”
She responded obediently. And then she heard him say, “We’ll go property viewing tomorrow.”
Gu Qingjiu raised her head in surprise. “Why are we viewing a property?”
“Don’t tell me you wish to keep on staying here?”
Helian Niancheng placed his slim and long finger on his hairline and looked at her, seemingly in thought. “Of course, I don’t mind staying wherever. But it’s, after all, inconvenient for me and you to stay at a hotel.”
