Wife is Fierce, Don’t Mess With Her!

Chapter 229:

Dazzling Others, Newly Arrived Instructor (5)

‘Bang!!!’

The sound of this particular gunshot seemed to have attracted everyone’s attention.

But Gu Qingjiu’s ten-meter target remained clear of any shots.

With a ‘shreek’ sound, a bullet quickly lodged at the outer rim of a twenty-meter target beside hers.

The female recruit paused for a while before she ran to her target to check. She then contemptuously said, “Wow, not bad, she hit the outer circle of my target!”

‘Scoff!’

The field erupted in laughter.

Although the guys sympathized with Gu Qingjiu, with the majority of the female recruits laughing, their shoulders started scrunching up in laughter as well.

Such a scene would embarrass anyone.

The sound of mocking laughter surrounded Gu Qingjiu.

But Tang Yuyu did not laugh. She wanted to say that it was no big deal to not hit the target, but everyone’s laughter around her annoyed her.

What was with these people? So what if she didn’t hit the target?

They started off the same, so what were they laughing about?

Drill Sergeant Ying Huan frowned as well, but there was nothing he could do to stop them.

He barked out, “That’s enough. What’s so funny about not hitting her first round? Huang Zhi, your first shot hit a target that was three people away. Your target that time was only five meters away and you still have the cheek to laugh at others.”

Huang Zhi, who the drill sergeant had pointed out, was a female recruit who stood beside Gu Qingjiu. She was also the first person to snicker.

After she had heard that, her smile stiffened.

Burning hot embarrassment flushed across her face. She was no longer smiling and instead throwing a furious glare at Gu Qingjiu.

The laughter gradually died down when they heard the Drill Sergeant’s reprimand.

They shrugged and started practicing.

Even under the jeers of her peers, Gu Qingjiu remained as calm as ever.

Her face did not reveal any traces of discomfort and she stretched her wrist.

It was her first shot and with that one shot, the recoil of the gun still left a little numbness on her palm.

Tang Yuyu patted her shoulders as she comforted. “No worries, you continue. Shooting is all about practice. I will practice on my own for now. If you need any help, just come and find me.”

Gu Qingjiu nodded her head lightly. “Okay, I will Yuyu. Thank you.”

Tang Yuyu revealed her canines. “You’re welcome!”

After speaking, she went to her own target to practice.

They did the target shooting in turns, one after another. Fortunately for Gu Qingjiu, nobody wanted to wait for her to finish her ten-meter target.

After Tang Yuyu left, Gu Qingjiu had relaxed a bit before she continued to practice.

She had a feeling—a feeling for shooting.

She didn’t think she was bad at it just because she missed the first shot.

With the gun in her hand, she felt like it had a distinctly different feel to it.

But the gun she was holding didn’t quite feel like it melded well with her. It didn’t feel right.

‘No rush. Just take my time.’

She comforted herself. Her heart which was pumping hard calmed down once again.

But when she was only at her third shot, someone had stopped her.

In the second shot, her bullet went through the center of the two targets, approximately the distance between her and the next recruit.

Her third shot brushed past the side of her own target.

Each shot was nearing her target. Gu Qingjiu felt satisfied with that, but before she could bask in that feeling, a voice rang from behind her.

“Why is there someone from Class five who is still practicing with a ten-meter target? The information submitted to me is not truthful. What’s wrong with this?”
