They passed by the shooting stand first and since everyone was intrigued they stopped and decided to take shooting as their first activity
some soldiers were making use of the shooting stage but when they saw them they excused and watched from the side line.
"why don't we have a competition?" Han yuli little friend suggested and nobody objected, the boys agreed to compete first then followed by the ladies
The two Han brothers, Jin fengju, Si Lu te and Zi yichen took their stance, each with a gun in hand every other necessary gear
BANG!
BANG! BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
Jin fengju emerged as the winner with the top score of 9.8, amidst the cheers he threw Lu yao yin a triumphant smile. Lu yao yin held back herself from scoffing at him, she could tell with a glance that Zi yichen and Si Lu te weren't taking the competition serious, if not he would not have won.
"you said you love shooting guns, I could teach you if you want" He walked up to Lu yao yin smugly.
"no thank you" she answered plainly cause she felt disgusted looking at his flirting gaze
"so let me get this straight...frosty doesn't know it's you so he's trying to flirt with you" Si Lu te walked up to her when Frosty had gone, his lips contorted with how much he was trying to hold back his laughter
She hummed in response and also let out a little chuckle
"I'll love to see how this ends" He said smiling from ear to ear, he could imagine Lu yao yin beat up the poor guy into a pulp
just like he thought, Lu yao yin replied "it sure does end up with my foot up his butt"
"it's been long I held a gun it sure make me fell like I'm on set" Lui shenhui's friend Cao linglei commented looking so proud, she was a popular actress and was known to perform all kind of fighting stunts perfectly, rumors had it that she had a good marksmanship and was also profound in archery, horse riding and kungfu.
"Shenhui'er it's long we competed against each other, let's see who wins this time around" she spoke like only the two of them were competing and totally ignored the others
"miss Lu yao yin aren't you participating in the competition?" Han yufan asked perplexed
"I most definitely am" Lu yao yin replied with alacrity
"Don't you need to change into something comfortable?" He asked again cause Lui shenhui, Cao linglei and Han yuli had already changed into their respective gear, they were all looking sophisticated like battle women
Lu yao yin shook her head then languidly took off her jacket leaving only the tank singlet she had on, she tied the jacket on her waist and moved to take her post.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
9.1, 8.9 and 7.5
Lui shenhui score happened to be the highest between her, Cao linglei and Han yuli, her face showed a sense of pride
"aish Shenhui'er! you beat me again, it seems you have been practicing behind my back" Cao linglei whined playful and didn't forget to throw a few praises too before turning to criticize Lu yao yin
"miss Lu yao yin you haven't made a move, could it be you are scared? you shouldn't have joined the competition if you weren't going_"
BANG! BANG! BANG! three shot rang out interrupting her speech, Lu yao yin had shot three consecutive time and just as they watched the machine rang out 10.0 three times, Everybody jaw almost hit the floor. for a lady it was a very Shocking talent to score the high score not just once but thrice
"you were saying?" Lu Yao yin dropped the gun and walked to the girl that was running her mouth
Cao linglei face felt like she had been slapped three times, she resented Lu yao yin even more for pretending like she didn't know how to use the gun. If she had known she wouldn't have said anything. when the girl didn't say anything else, Lu yao yin walked past her and walked to Zi yichen
" let's compete"
Zi yichen looked at her, to him her eyes glistened as she asked the question. "really?"
"you owe me a request don't you"
"didn't you say I would be your sparring partner?" He asked her with an incredulous look on his face
"this is also considered sparring" she didn't wait to hear his reply before pulling him towards the stand. since both of them wanted to compete other waited to watch the competition.
They took their stance and the competition began, both of them looked serious like they were actually up against a formidable enemy. Lu yao yin was so immense in her shooting that she forget and did the stunt she always did when holding her gun. She tossed her gun towards Zi yichen when the barrel was empty and surprisingly at the same time his gun also flew towards her, They simultaneously caught the gun and looked at each other.
Lu yao yin was momentarily reminded of when she fought alongside with Gremlin, they had done this stunt too, she shock her head and continued the competition. At the end it took the machine a long time before it calculated their score.
299.9! 299.9!
They had both done a round of thirty shots each and surprisingly their score was the same
"wow miss Lu yao yin I thought you said you weren't good at using a gun?" Han yufan was a soldier so he was more intrigued by such things
"it's sheer luck" it could have been better if she didn't say anything cause saying it's sheer luck was like slapping the face of everybody listening, how could sheer luck give her 10 full point for 29 shots! isn't that too unbelievable.
Although non of them believed her they still didn't ask any questions and moved to the next activity, because of Lu yao yin shocking talent a sum of soldier followed them as they continued.
"miss Lu yao yin you're much more talented than I am it since that was why you didn't feel there was a need for me to teach you" Jin fengju came up to her as they walked on, she peered at him from the corner of her eyes but didn't give a reply
"what about archery? shooting a gun and archery are quite different so you would find it difficult, so why don't I give you pointers."
No matter what he said Lu yao yin didn't give him a reply still he stuck to her like glue and kept offering all kind of offer. Lui shenhui felt displeased when she saw Zi yichen and Jin fengju standing at both sides of Lu yao yin like her bodyguards, she didn't believe Lu yao yin was worth the attention she was getting, what pained her the most was the loving gaze Zi yichen used to look at Lu yao yin
It was supposed to be her! it was supposed to be her! standing between those two awesome men and receiving that admiring side glance from people. Her jealousy skyrocketed but she was perfect at keeping a straight face so it didn't show
In no time they got to the archery department, everybody began picking their gear and equipment.
"huh? miss Lu yao yin aren't you participating?" Han yufan was a lover of talent so he had grown fond of Lu yao yin, he asked when he saw that she wasn't choosing bows and arrows like everyone else
"nah I'll seat this one out" 'To much publicity isn't good' she said to herself, she might most likely be carried away and show her real talent then people would get suspicious of her.
"why? just like shooting archery is kind of fun, you should join us" he tried to urge her into joining
"I don't know how to_" she didn't want him to keep pestering her to join so she lied but even before she finished speaking Zi yichen and Jin fengju simultaneously replied.
"I'll teach you" They said it together then looked at themselves, one glared at the other while the other smiled nonchalantly
Lu yao yin almost slapped her forehead out of frustration. what are these two trying to do, are they trying to put her in a difficult position.
"No need to fuss, we are together so I'll naturally be the one to teach her if there's a need for teaching" So Lu te stepped forward and said with his hands around Lu yao yin neck
'They are together?!' he had said a long line of words but this were the only words that most people heard
