They practiced shooting for the whole afternoon. They were all high-performing students from each province so their ability to learn was all top notch. Some people did not perform well in some of the cross-country activities with heavy loads, so they tried extra hard to shoot well.
Meanwhile, Gu Mang’s poor performance was hard to look at. Slowly, all eyes that were on her shifted to others. There seemed to be a smile on Gu Mang’s mouth and she spun the gun around her finger.
Her actions and posture made her seem extremely skillful.
At 6pm, the shooting training ended.
They had an hour of break.
…
In the office area.
Lu Chengzhou, Qin Fang, and He Yidu had just returned. Lu Wu followed them. The moment they entered, they saw a group of sorrowful people with their heads on the table. It was as if they had just encountered some great trauma.
Qin Fang went over and knocked on the table. “What’s the problem?”
All of them came back to their senses and stood immediately. They bowed respectfully. “Young Master Lu, Young Master Qin, Young Master He.”
Lu Chengzhou walked to the sofa and sat down. He poured himself a cup of water and looked at the screen at the surveillance footage. Gu Mang should have just finished her dinner. She was walking into her dormitory with her dorm mates.
Qin Fang glanced at the footage too. Then, his vision went back to the people around him. “Can you not even handle training a few students?”
No one answered.
Lu Wu looked at someone square-faced. “What’s the matter?”
“It’s just that, Ms. Gu…” The square-faced person stuttered. His eyes shifted towards the sofa.
Upon hearing this, Lu Chengzhou looked up. The square-faced person’s body went stiff immediately.
Qin Fang and He Yidu made eye contact with one another and they could see each other’s nervousness in their eyes. Could it be that someone who doesn’t know better had provoked the big boss again?
Qin Fang asked, “What about Ms. Gu?”
The square-faced person looked at Lu Chengzhou cautiously. He suddenly stood in a standard military posture and lowered his head. “I’m sorry, Young Master Lu. We did not carry out our duty well. We didn’t manage to teach Ms. Gu to shoot.”
After he said that, the room was silent.
Qin Fang, He Yidu and Lu Wu looked at each other. They were all speechless.
Teaching the Big Boss to shoot? She was a maniac who could shoot down an unmanned helicopter with one shot! They were teaching the internationally number one killer how to shoot?!
Lu Chengzhou recalled when Gu Mang threw darts. “…Which ring did she hit?”
The square-faced person had a complicated expression on his face. “1st ring. The first time, she shot at the target beside hers. She hit the 1st ring for the entire afternoon.”
Lu Chengzhou was speechless.
Qin Fang’s mouth twitched. “Is Big Boss trying to be the worst performer again?”
Lu Wu didn’t quite understand Gu Mang’s habits so he was confused.
Would someone as skillful as Ms. Gu really be bad at shooting?
He Yidu was long used to Gu Mang’s peculiar habits. When he understood that it wasn’t much of a big deal, he went to the fridge to get a bottle of iced water. He opened it. “Brother Cheng, what shall we do about Sister Mang?”
When the others heard how He Yidu addressed Gu Mang, they were all shocked.
Lu Chengzhou leaned back slightly. “Carry on with the training. Don’t annoy her.”
The square-faced person pondered and asked, “But Young Master Lu, the assessment requested for the end of the documentary…”
This year, the national news station recording team was following the whole program. The documentary was to let everyone see the way that military training for college students was carried out.
Of course, they would choose the top few students from each class who performed well during the military training to be showcased in the documentary. But as the Freshman Representative of the military conference, Ms. Gu had to be featured.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t feel so frustrated.
Lu Chengzhou sounded calm. “She’s not participating in the assessment.”
Hearing this, the square-faced person sighed in relief. “Alright.”
Where would their pride go if word got out that Red Scorpion had trained a noob who could barely shoot?
