Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Ten Rings, Ten Rings
Sheng Ning’s shoulder ached from the recoil of the semi-automatic rifle, but she still gritted her teeth and endured, striving to maintain the standard posture.
“Ten rings, ten rings…” the voice counting the score was hoarse from shouting.
Dai Bin stared with wide eyes, unable to believe the results, and dashed over to see for himself. It really was ten rings. Could it be that he had trained a genius?
“Ten rings, two tens… Impossible!”
“Why impossible? The instructor personally went to check and didn’t say anything.”
“You mean she’s that skilled?”
“If she isn’t, who is? After all, she is Living Yama’s wife. I heard Living Yama is a Sharpshooter with dual pistols. Like family, like door, isn’t it!”
Qin Cuifen was dumbfounded; her shooting was terrible. She had assumed Sheng Ning was no better than herself, but now that Sheng Ning had stolen the limelight, didn’t that mean she would be overshadowed?
The bitch, the more she looked, the more hateful she became. To think she was so foolish before, it all must have been an act to deceive her.
Chen Huaying’s face showed a complex expression; she had just felt smug moments ago. To think that in less than ten minutes, she would be upstaged by a girl from the countryside, it was hard to swallow.
It wasn’t that she looked down on those from the countryside; if truth be told, generations of her family came from muddy farmlands!
She just hadn’t expected someone from the General Union Dance Troupe would outshoot her!
“Sheng Ning, you’re incredible, I’m convinced!” Liu Yilan, usually proud, nodded continuously, her expression a mix of frustration and adorableness.
“Can’t be, right? Instructor, you didn’t see it wrong?” Sheng Ning was a bit incredulous; she had merely followed the instructor’s guidance while firing, and both bullets hit ten rings?
It was just like cheating; if only she could switch this luck to dancing, she’d be ecstatic.
Dai Bin nodded with a complex look in his eyes. His own shooting scores were not even as good as a female comrade he trained! To speak of it would be humiliating beyond belief.
A buzz of amazement erupted from the crowd of onlookers.
Kong Jie, who originally had a fierce and formidable appearance, now widened his eyes in surprise, which made them look like bull’s eyes. “Go, go over there and see if it’s true!”
Kong Jie’s assistant hurried over to verify, while people from the War Wolf Rescue Team were dissatisfied, suspecting them of cheating. Were they asking for a beating?
If it weren’t for Kong Jie’s higher rank, they would’ve beaten him on the spot.
Chen Yingjie and Li Duoxi eagerly looked at Xu Qigang, hoping the Captain would show his strength and give Kong Jie a thrashing.
As the center of attention, Xu Qigang had his full attention on Sheng Ning at this moment. Although he appeared calm on the surface, the turmoil in his heart was no less than a tsunami.
Each time they met, she always brought him surprises and repeatedly made him feel unworthy of her.
Although he usually never let himself be distracted by women, he knew that the entire rescue world took pride in being able to marry a female comrade. Among them, those from the General Union Song and Dance Troupe were one in a hundred, even many from the big compounds would choose a female comrade.
Sheng Ning was so beautiful; it was no surprise many people pursued her.
At the thought of the scene he witnessed last time at the hospital, a hint of malice flickered in Xu Qigang’s eyes, but his strong self-control quickly dispersed it.
Shen Jianguo’s emotions, well-hidden as they might be, couldn’t escape his observation.
“Captain Kong, I think that female comrade must have extraordinary talent,” Hai Shen, who had a clear view from the front, couldn’t help but speak on behalf of the War Wolf Rescue Team.
“Captain, aren’t you going to say something?” Li Duoxi was anxiously fidgeting.
Xu Qigang shifted his gaze away from Sheng Ning and shot Li Duoxi a warning look, then watched Kong Jie expressionlessly.
