Chapter 535 A Refined Young Lady from the Republican Era Gets the Male and Female Protagonists Killed (37)

"There's no need to scare these two little girls. They're both born of mothers and fathers, and it would be a pity if they got hurt."

"There are so many soldiers in Commander Liu's camp, let's find two to stand guard."

Since Jiang Beilou has said so, Commander Liu has to give him face.

"Okay, we don't need them. Let's just get two more capable ones instead."

Ji Sheng! A Yu! You two come here! Keep me and Chairman Jiang company for a bit!

Zhang Jisheng and Gao Yu were two major generals serving under Commander Liu.

Upon receiving the order, two young men marched over and stood upright on either side of him about twenty meters away.

"Not enough, not enough! Go back a bit further, at least fifty meters!"

Fifty meters?

All the guests present couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

Setting up live targets fifty meters away is one thing for others, but these two are major generals who have risked their lives alongside Marshal Liu!

If something goes wrong, at best you'll have a lot of holes in your body, at worst you could lose your life!

But who could control Commander Liu's decision here? The two major generals had obediently retreated to a position fifty meters away and stood still. Then, each of them placed an apple on their head, in both hands, and below their legs.

Shooting from fifty meters away, let alone being able to shoot accurately, you might not even be able to see clearly.

But Commander Liu remained calm and confident, toying with his pistol and looking at Jiang Beilou with a half-smile.

"President Jiang, don't worry. I understand your concern about those girls. Now, these two are the people I trust most. I've put these two important people out there as targets. President Jiang, you'll have to give me face and have a match with me no matter what."

General Liu thought that Jiang Beilou's words were just excuses. What was there to regret? What was there to regret about the lives of two poor girls? Half of the people in BH City were working for him, Jiang Beilou. Why would he care about the lives of two such lowly girls?

Therefore, Commander Liu became even more certain that Jiang Beilou was afraid.

He dared not compare himself to himself, because he was afraid of revealing that he was holding a fake gun.

So Marshal Liu directly sent out his two most important major generals as targets.

In this situation, he wanted to see what excuse Jiang Beilou could possibly have to refuse.

Jiang Beilou smiled helplessly to the side.

"General Liu may not know this since he is new here, but the whole of BH City knows that I have an eye disease and rarely use a gun. This competition is indeed a bit difficult for me."

Excuses, all of them are just excuses.

Commander Liu was determined to have a contest with him today, so no matter what, he had to force him to take out his gun and show it off.

"It's okay, you can compete with someone else."

Jiang Beilou's eyes were slightly cold and deep, as if he was thinking about something.

Just then, Jin Shu spoke up.

"Then let me give it a try."

Jiang Beilou watched her quietly.

How's your aim?

"I just learned it when I went out to deliver goods with you last time."

Jiang Beilou laughed as soon as he heard that.

"That's enough. Go ahead and fire. I'll take care of the rest."

This statement carries considerable weight.

Jin Shu took the gun from her and walked up to Commander Liu.

"President Jiang asked me to compete with you."

Commander Liu looked her up and down, then smirked and chuckled.

"you?"

"Hmm, is that not allowed?"

"Sure, why not? But you'd better be careful later. If you hurt my major general, don't blame me for getting angry."

That might sound a bit petty, but so what? Right now, Commander Liu has weapons in his hands—the most advanced modified version of the German Mauser C96 pistol. Once it's mass-produced, he'll be in charge of the entire BH city.

In other words, no matter how arrogant he is now, and no matter how uncomfortable others feel about it, they can only keep it to themselves.

Jin Shu weighed the gun in her hand, then raised it and tested it.

"Don't worry, Commander Liu. The Mauser pistol I'm holding has a range of over 200 meters and is equipped with a crosshair. Even I can easily hit the target."

"Hahaha, you're just as arrogant as your boss. Don't let things go wrong and hurt your pretty face, or Chairman Jiang will be heartbroken."

The implication is the same.

Jin Shu is just a pretty face, and her relationship with Jiang Beilou is not a simple one.

Before Jin Shu could even speak, Jiang Beilou, who had been sitting calmly and leisurely to the side, slowly stood up. His slender figure stood in front of Commander Liu, exuding an undeniable sense of oppression.

"General Liu, Miss Jin is an important member of our Beihai Chamber of Commerce. Her family background is impeccable. I cannot tolerate others insulting the people around me like this. Otherwise, I will turn against them."

The man's voice wasn't loud, but it was clear enough for Commander Liu and those around him to hear it perfectly.

Even the usually smug Liu Dashuai, facing the absolute ruler of BH City, instinctively flinched in fear.

"I didn't mean it as an insult. I was just joking. Why would you turn against me over a woman?"

"Just kidding? Then what about the time I promised Commander Liu I'd borrow money? That was just kidding too."

"You... Ha, Chairman Jiang is really impressive. Alright! I was wrong just now. I apologize to this young lady."

"Now, let's have the competition. We can talk about everything else after the competition."

Jiang Beilou turned to look at Jin Shu and said with his eyes lowered.

"Go ahead and compete, don't worry. Even if you kill someone, I'll take responsibility for it."

"Don't worry, I have great confidence in the gun I have."

Before the competition began, Commander Liu was testing his gun when Zhao Hanying, who had been standing to the side, suddenly stepped forward.

"General, why don't I help you with the competition? If the goal is to highlight the weapon's effectiveness, you shouldn't be the one to compete. Otherwise, if you win, others will think it's because your marksmanship is superior."

But if I were on the field, it would be different. That way, I could thoroughly humiliate them and make them feel utterly ashamed.

Upon hearing this, Commander Liu nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, that makes sense, and I heard from Jisheng that your marksmanship is quite good."

“I studied in the military camp for a while when I was away fighting before. I wasn’t particularly good at it, but it was more than enough to deal with a pretty face.”

Upon hearing this, Commander Liu laughed heartily.

"Okay, then you'll take my place! Don't hold back for them, just give it your all!"

After today, I'll see who in BH City dares to swagger in front of me!

Zhao Hanying took a deep breath, took the gun from Commander Liu's hand, her hands trembling slightly.

It wasn't fear or nervousness, but rather overwhelming excitement and exhilaration.

She was really looking forward to embarrassing Jin Shu in front of so many people.
