Chapter 49 The First Gift

  Yao Wenhao really wanted to ask clearly the doubts in his heart, but he couldn't open his mouth no matter what. One reason was that he didn't dare to, he was afraid that things would be like the kind of situation he didn't even dare to think about. Another reason was that he didn't know what position he should take to ask her.

  But couldn't help but want to talk to her, ended the daytime classes, and finally saw Ji Xin'an again on the training field.

  Jian Xin'an ran with difficulty, so she pretended to come to her side unintentionally, "It seems that you haven't been training much for the past two months?"

  "Yeah, except for having time to run, I haven't been doing much exercise, if this continues, all my previous training will be in vain." Ji Xin'an said while running, but surprisingly, she was a bit out of breath after just a short distance, which never happened before.

  "It's okay, there are still three years left, we can take it slow." Yao Wenhuo comforted her. "It's been a long time since I went to the shooting range, let's go together tomorrow, you've changed a lot in these two months."

  "What's new this time?"

  Yao Wenhao smiled mysteriously, "Go take a look and you'll know, it's definitely going to be a surprise for you."

  "Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow." Ji Xin'an hadn't fired a gun in a long time and was thinking about it.

  "Then I'll wait for you downstairs at your place tomorrow." Yao Wenhao heard this and laughed happily.

  "Good." Ji Xin'an nodded and went off by herself to practice other things.

  The conversation between the two of them caught Yu Yao's attention, and she didn't come over until Ji Xin'an had left.

  "Brother, you seem to be getting along very well with Ji Xin'an. Are your relationship good?" Yu Yao looked at Yao Wenhuang with a puzzled expression, not having seen his smiling face for an entire summer vacation, but today he found him to be exceptionally happy.

  "What's wrong, my little princess is jealous? If you don't like it, I won't talk to her in the future." Yao Wenhao doted on Yu Yao.

  "That's not it, I'm not interfering with your friendships, it's just strange how you two get along." Yu Yao explained hastily.

  "Teasing you." Yao Wen-hao smiled and gently scratched Yu Yao's nose, "We've been at the same table for a year now, seeing each other every day, so we naturally became familiar with each other."

  "What do you think of her?" Yu Yao looked at Yao Wenhuang, who didn't seem to have any vacation mood at all, and couldn't believe his words in her heart.

  "How to put it, she's a special person, different from girls of the same age. She doesn't have such heavy thoughts, everything is written on her face. When she's in a good mood, she smiles like a flower, and whoever sees her can't help but feel happy too. When she's not in a good mood, her whole face is cloudy, and anyone who sees her knows she's not happy. And no matter what she does, there's always that kind of determination, with a bit of an "I won't give up until I achieve my goal" attitude, although it can also be a bit headache-inducing." Yao Wenhuo thought about Ji Xin'an's expression, without noticing the different smile on his own face when mentioning her.

  Yu Yao looked into his bright eyes and became even more certain of the idea in her mind, suddenly feeling a bit uncomfortable, as if another important person had been taken away from her side.

  But then again, if that person was Ji Xin'an, it wouldn't be so unexpected after all. Such an excellent person like her would naturally not be able to arouse jealousy in herself. However, the relationship between Yao Wenhuo and Zou Ze had never been good to begin with, and now they both liked the same person at the same time. And then there was that scene she saw that day, which still hadn't been cleared up until now. Such chaos made Yu Yao feel very uneasy.

  The next day, Ji Xin'an saw Yao Wenhuai waiting downstairs in his own building as usual.

  Let's go to the shooting range, there are many more people now than when they first came.

  The staff at the shooting range seem to have a good business sense, and after seeing many people, they opened some competition projects. The winners will also receive some small items as prizes, although they are not valuable things, but winning the competition and getting something is still exciting.

  The two of them participated in every competition with great enthusiasm, and in the end, there were both wins and losses. What surprised Ji Xin'an was that Yao Wenhao's marksmanship had improved a lot in just a few days, and he actually came back with first place among so many strong opponents.

  Yao Wenhao handed over the prize he had won and presented it in front of Ji Xin'an, "This is for you."

  "This is your first trophy, how can I take it?" Ji Xin'an looked at the tank made of shell casings in front of her, which she also liked very much, but seeing his excitement when he received the award, she felt that she still couldn't take it.

  "Take it, this is the first gift I've given you, if you don't want it I won't be happy." Yao Wen Hao forced it into Ji Xin An's hand, his face stern, pretending to be angry.

  "Alright, I've got it, you can stop pretending now. It's not like you're fooling anyone." Ji Xin'an smiled as she took it, but she also saw right through him.

  Yao Wenhao couldn't help it and burst out laughing, "You're really taking care of this well, this is something that can't be bought even with money."

  "Don't worry, I'll go back and put it in a glass cabinet, hang a sign that says 'Yao Wenhao's first prize for shooting'. Ji Xin'an looked at him with a thoughtful expression, feeling touched. She could tell that Yao Wenhao was very attached to this thing, but still gave it to her without hesitation."

  As soon as she said that, Yao Wenhuo was so angry that he glared at her and was about to grab her. Ji Xin'an, of course, wouldn't stand there waiting for his revenge, hiding from him in this small space, but before long, she was caught by Yao Wenhuo.

  Ji Xin'an immediately begged for mercy in a very unmanly manner.

  Just as the two were having a good time, someone interrupted them, "Wen Hao, playing with your little girlfriend? You two haven't been together for a long time, are you making her unhappy?"

  The two of them saw someone coming and quickly separated, both feeling a bit embarrassed.

  "Uncle Li, this is my classmate Ji Xin'an. She quite likes it here, so I often bring her to play." Yao Wenhuo explained somewhat awkwardly.

  That man smiled and turned to look at Ji Xin'an, "I've seen your marksmanship, it's much better than this kid. Why don't you come more often? I'll get you a membership card?"

  "Then thank you." Ji Xin'an smiled, not minding his joke. Just now, the two of them did look like they were in a compromising position, but Ji Xin'an also knew that the more she explained, the more confusing it would become, so it was better to just drop it and move on.

  "I've come to find you all, I was thinking of asking for your help with something." Li Shu said directly after the small talk.

  "What else can we use to make up for our shortcomings?" Yao Wenhao smiled.

  "It's like this, we just opened a new shooting range today and plan to find a few good shooters for a demonstration match. We're still short of two people. I trust your marksmanship, so I'd like you both to join in." Li Shu explained patiently to the two men.

  "No problem, but Uncle Li, you can't let us two fight each other to the death, we have to be on the same side." Yao Wenhao agreed with a smile without even thinking about it.

  "This is of course, how could Uncle Li do such a thing as hitting a mandarin duck!" He still couldn't forget this matter.

  After he left, Yao Wen-hao suddenly remembered that he had agreed without asking Ji Xin-an's opinion. "An An, sorry about this, I didn't ask for your opinion and you might not want to go, so I'll go tell him to find someone else."

  "It's okay, I also wanted to go and take a look." Ji Xin'an didn't mind, smiled and followed him walking over.
