Chapter 65: Bigger Trouble

  Zou Weiguo handed Ji Xin'an the familiar August 1st rifle, and Ji Xin'an smiled mysteriously. With a nearly practiced ease, he loaded the bullets, assumed a prone position, aimed at the bullseye, and pulled the trigger.

  Watching Ji Xin'an's movements, Zou Weiguo was first stunned, and then seeing the final result of 90 rings, he was even more surprised, "How did you...?"

  "How's that? I told you I wouldn't let you down." Ji Xin'an smiled triumphantly.

  "You don't look like you're shooting for the second time, it seems you've found a place to practice for a while." Zou Weiguo thought of this immediately, because all great shooters are born from bullets, even if Ji Xin'an is a genius, it's impossible that he only held a gun once and could still shoot such a high score after several years.

  Ji Xin'an chuckled and said, "I found a commercial shooting range, so when I'm free, I go there with friends to shoot guns."

  "It seems I'm redundant this time." Zou Weiguo finally realized, but felt very pleased.

  "How could it be? Master brought me here, which is much better than there. This is professional, and Master is the best." Ji Xin'an immediately pulled his hand and said with a flattering tone.

  "Stop flattering me and go practice your shooting instead." Zou Weiguo was already basically immune to her coquettish ways.

  "Oh." Ji Xin'an saw that he was no longer fooled by his own tricks, and felt very depressed. He turned around and ran to continue practicing his marksmanship.

  Here, everything is different from what Ji Xin'an had contact with before. It's all professional training and the guns are also the kind used by active military personnel. However, Ji Xin'an has been playing for two years now, so the only thing he needs to adapt to now is the recoil of the gun.

  Ji Xin'an can't play as long as she wants like before, the training time and projects have strict restrictions, one of the reasons is that her age is still young, afraid that her body can't bear it, so even if Ji Xin'an wants to play a little longer, it's not allowed.

  "Little girl, if you pout again, I won't let you go next time." At dinner, Zou Weiguo saw that she was still unhappy and reached out with his left hand to tap her on the head.

  "Bad master, can't you let me play for a while longer?" Ji Xin'an covered her head and complained.

  "This is for your own good. You're too small now and the recoil of the gun is too great, I'm afraid you can't take it." Zou Weiguo explained with a smile.

  "I know, but it's not that bad, I just found the feeling and you pulled me away." Ji Xin'an made a bitter face while putting food into her mouth.

  "Not even a minute, I still don't know you. If I give you ten more minutes, you'll want half an hour; if I give you half an hour, you'll want an hour. So I absolutely cannot give you any chance. Next time you do this, I'll tell them to reduce your time again." Zou Weiguo glared at her with a knowing look.

  "No, no, I know you're the best to me, Master. The timing is just right now. Come on, Master, have a bite of something delicious." Ji Xin'an heard that he was going to reduce his sentence and immediately showed a flattering smile, even personally picking up some food to feed him.

  "What the...?! You want to choke me to death?!" It turned out that Ji Xin'an didn't have any good intentions, and before Zou Weiguo could even finish what was in his mouth, she had already stuffed a large handful of food into his mouth, causing him to choke and roll his eyes back.

  "Master, you must be exhausted, have another bite." Ji Xin'an said with a sly smile as he picked up more food.

  "Eat well, or else I won't let you go play basketball." Zou Weiguo hurriedly covered his mouth and handed over the plate to receive the dish.

  Ji Xin'an smiled and started eating with a smile, no longer feeling depressed.

  The two of them were eating happily, unaware that all their movements were being watched by others. At this time, not far away, there were two women staring at them, one with a face full of anger.

  After watching for a while, I wanted to go forward, but was pulled back by another person. "Lihua, it's not clear what's going on yet, if you go over now, you'll only make things more complicated. If it's not as you think, not only will he be embarrassed, but you'll also be awkward. Better go back and figure it out first."

  "What's unclear about this? Just look at them, even a blind person can see it." Li Hua gritted her teeth, wanting to rush over and interrogate Zou Weiguo.

  "Don't be like this, even if it's what you think, now is not the time to bring it up, making a big deal out of it will only give him an excuse for divorce. Do you really want a divorce? Can't you think about yourself or at least think about Xiao Zhe?" The woman grasped her tightly, her voice tense.

  "Can it be just like this?" Looking at their movements, her heart was even more furious.

  "Of course it can't be like this, let's go back first and talk about it later when things are clear." He said, pulling her along as he walked.

  "Hmph." He glared at them fiercely and stormed off in a huff.

  On the other side, the two people who were eating delicious food had no idea that their unconscious joke had caused such big trouble.

  Yao Wenhao's family finally gathered together to have lunch, but Yao Wenhao's mother Wei Yan was still nagging there.

  "You said that you men are all like this, I thought that being a soldier would not be as messy as the locals, but unexpectedly Old Zou who seemed fine on the surface actually had someone outside." Wei Yan said with some emotion, occasionally glancing at Yao Wenhu's father Yao Baixiang, seemingly to strike first and gain an advantage.

  "Don't talk nonsense, Lao Zou is not that kind of person, I've worked with him for so many years and I know him too well." Yao Baixiang became somewhat displeased when he heard her talking about someone behind their back.

  "What nonsense are you talking about? You understand him, but don't you understand me? I wouldn't make up baseless things. Zhou Weiguo came back this time and didn't even go home, he just went to have dinner with some young girl. As it happened, Lihua and I ran into them, and the two of them were being all affectionate, passing dishes and touching each other's hands and feet. Anyone could see that there was something wrong with their behavior. If I hadn't been there, Lihua would have definitely rushed over. It seems like you can know someone's face but not their heart. Who knows what kind of person he really is behind his respectable appearance?" In an instant, Zhou Weiguo became a hypocrite in her eyes.

  "That's not necessarily what you think it is, sometimes what the eyes see isn't true. You'd better not follow others and get involved in their affairs." Yao Boxiang still didn't believe that Zou Weiguo would do such a thing.

  "It's all laid out in front of us, what's uncertain about it? You say nowadays young girls don't know how to think, they look pretty but insist on being the third party, there are plenty of good young men she could have found, but instead she had to find old Zou who is almost old enough to be her father. I mean, Liu Lihua and her husband were already apart a lot, now this thing has happened, sigh." Wei Yan seemed to be looking down on the 'third party', while also feeling sorry for Liu Lihua.

  "It's probably just friends or something, just having a meal, doesn't mean anything." Yao Boxiang continued to defend his old friend in a calm and unhurried manner.

  "That little girl is almost young enough to be his daughter, how can he have such a young friend?" Apparently she had made up her mind and wouldn't believe whatever anyone said.

  "Clang." Yao Wen-hao couldn't take it anymore and slammed his chopsticks on the table. "I'm done eating, you guys eat slowly."

  "How can you eat so little?" Wei Yan saw that he hadn't eaten much and was worried that he would go hungry, wanting to call him back, but Yao Wenhuo simply didn't pay attention to her anymore.

  "What's the point of calling, didn't you see that Wen Hao didn't want to listen to your nagging and left? Hurry up and eat, he'll come out when he's hungry." Yao Bo Xiang looked at her for a moment and stopped talking, lowering his head to start eating.

  Yao Wenhao returned to his room and lay on the bed, covering his head. He knew they were talking about Ji Xin'an, who had left with Zou Weiguo early in the morning. Hearing them say such terrible things about Ji Xin'an was unbelievable, but thinking of their intimate appearance made him waver a little more.

  Just thinking about it makes my heart ache with a sharp pain.
