Chapter 86: On Teachers' Teaching
The military training ground was quiet for a long time, with only the sound of most of the instructors, whose voices had turned into hoarse croaks, shouting "One, two, one" through megaphones.
Xu Yihuan stood in front of the target, and thanks to being ridiculed so much, she and Tan Zhixu now had their own targets.
Xu Yihuan stood in front of the target, and Tan Zhixu stood behind her.
The height difference between the two is exactly half a head.
Xu Yihuan's fluffy head was pressed against Tan Zhixu's body.
“Stand up straight and tense up. You just fired a gun, so you should have felt the recoil. So hold on tight, Xu Yihuan.”
Tan Zhixu stood beside Xu Yihuan and helped her adjust her posture.
Xu Yihuan felt like she was about to be shot.
That eagerness to try it out came back to me.
But looking at Xu Yihuan, Tan Zhixu felt that something was off.
Xu Yihuan blinked: "Can I shoot now?"
Tan Zhixu frowned, touched his chin, and paced back and forth around Xu Yihuan.
Finally, Tan Zhixu's gaze fell on Xu Yihuan's pistol.
His eyes lit up, he snapped his fingers, and found it!
Xu Yihuan looked at Tan Zhixu with a blank expression, not understanding what he was doing.
Tan Zhixu looked at Xu Yihuan, and after a few seconds of eye contact, he suddenly smiled.
Under the blazing sun, Tan Zhixu's eyes curved into crescents, the corners of his eyes slightly upturned, making the red mole between his brows even more alluring.
"Xu Xiaohuan, did you peek at me shooting just now?"
These words seemed to touch a nerve with Xu Yihuan, and she didn't even notice how Tan Zhixu addressed her.
She looked away as if she'd been electrocuted.
"What... what nonsense are you talking about? I didn't see you shoot. So what if you got a ten-ring? Not everyone cares about that."
Tan Zhixu didn't say anything, just smiled and looked at Xu Yihuan.
Xu Yihuan's guilty conscience caused her language system to become disordered.
Once the words were out of her mouth, Xu Yihuan realized why she had denied it. He had clearly shot at her in front of her; she had seen it as soon as she looked up.
Xu Yihuan was annoyed; she should have known better than to deny it.
Looking at the vivid micro-expressions on Xu Yihuan's face, Tan Zhixu could almost immediately understand what she was thinking.
This is because they're annoyed that they didn't perform well.
Tan Zhixu grinned slyly: "Then tell me, was my shot just now good or bad?"
Xu Yihuan pursed her lips and remained silent for a long time, but her posture suggested that she wished she could hold the gun in her hand to his head.
Tan Zhixu noticed Xu Yihuan's awkwardness, coughed lightly, and finally restrained his attitude.
"Ahem, that's all." Tan Zhixu's expression turned serious and solemn.
He said helplessly, "Since it's your first time shooting, you can't use only one hand. The recoil of the gun is very strong when the bullet is fired. Before you get used to it, it's best to use both hands."
As he spoke, Tan Zhixu reached out to help Xu Yihuan adjust her posture.
She placed her other hand on the gun.
However, Tan Zhixu himself did not leave.
With both hands holding Xu Yihuan's hands, he gripped the control panel, his legs shoulder-width apart. This simple posture made it seem as if he was enveloping Xu Yihuan.
Summer is already hot, and a boy's body temperature is more like a moving lava; you'll sweat if you get too close.
Unable to contain herself, Xu Yihuan's heart pounded wildly.
He licked his lips and subconsciously looked up at Tan Zhixu.
Tan Zhixu lowered his head slightly, raised his eyes, and stared sharply at the bullseye.
He noticed Xu Yihuan's gaze.
"Focus."
The boy's magnetic, husky voice rang out right next to Xu Yihuan's ear.
The warm breath he exhaled reached Xu Yihuan's ear.
Xu Yihuan felt a tickle in her ears, and her heart started racing.
Xu Yihuan frowned, suppressing the discomfort in her body, and tried to focus her attention on the pistol in front of her.
After sensing that Xu Yihuan was ready, Tan Zhixu led her to pull the trigger.
"Bang--"
The bullet passed through the target and made a hole in the bullseye of the ten-ring.
She hit the bullseye?! And she hit the bullseye?!
Before Xu Yihuan could react to the unusual sensation in her body, she immediately looked up at Tan Zhixu with surprise.
Tan Zhixu smiled and didn't hold back his praise.
"Xu Xiaohuan, you're amazing!"
Xu Yihuan's eyes crinkled with smugness; if she had a tail, it would wag so fast it could take off.
But he remained very modest, saying, "No, no, it's all thanks to Teacher Tan's excellent teaching."
Looking at the person in front of him who resembled a little fox, Tan Zhixu tried his best to restrain himself from rubbing her head.
He gave a casual reply.
An afternoon passed by in training.
Under Tan Zhixu's tutelage, Xu Yihuan made rapid progress.
At least if I shoot by myself, I could get into the fifth ring if I were to shoot alone.
After the song before the meal, the group disbanded.
Lu Anlan pounced on her like a butterfly.
She looked up at Xu Yihuan with starry eyes and said, "Huanhuan, you're so amazing!"
"At first, I would miss the target, but later I hit the target every time."
Xu Yihuan smiled modestly: "It's all thanks to your brother's excellent teaching."
Lu Anlan covered her mouth and chuckled. There was one more thing she hadn't said: from that perspective, she and Tan Zhixu were quite a good match.
The idea had just been formed.
Tan Zhixu walked past them, stirring up a gentle breeze.
He stood in the middle of a group of people, some of whom were unbuckling their belts and others taking off their hats.
Only Tan Zhixu, though neatly dressed, exuded a more relaxed and carefree air than anyone else around him.
Even if they occasionally can't hear what others are saying, they just tilt their heads slightly in that direction.
Xu Yihuan's heart started pounding again.
Feeling out of control was very uncomfortable, and Xu Yihuan subconsciously frowned and covered her chest with her hand.
Lu Anlan was startled.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? She hasn't forgotten that Xu Yihuan fainted on her very first day here."
Xu Yihuan shook her head: "I don't know, maybe I'm just too tired today. My heart is beating a little fast."
Lu Anlan believed it to be true.
He quickly helped Xu Yihuan up.
"Let's hurry up and pack some food to go back and enjoy the air conditioning."
Xu Yihuan nodded.
The training continued in the same manner for the next few days.
In addition to shooting, crawling training has been assigned.
Xu Yihuan was lucky enough not to be selected, so all she had to do was practice shooting.
Until the day before the performance.
Outstanding students from the Foreign Languages Department were chosen as the main infantry to lead the opening act.
Pei Yutang was one of them.
The day before the performance, Pei Yutang returned to her dormitory, which was a rare occurrence for her.
"Huanhuan, I heard that a company can only have two model soldiers. Who do you think the Black Bear Spirit will choose?"
"A black bear spirit?"
Upon hearing Xu Yihuan's question, Lu Anlan slapped his forehead.
"I forgot you've been doing military training with the guys next door all this time. Black Bear Spirit is our instructor, that's what everyone calls him."
"I think one of them is definitely Li Li, after all, she's the top leader of our model battalion, but the other one..."
Before Lu Anlan could finish speaking, the dormitory door was pushed open.
Pei Yutang walked in with a cold face.
When Lu Anlan saw Pei Yutang, she was stunned for a moment, and then she shut her mouth.
The dormitory wasn't very soundproof, and Lu Anlan's words could be heard clearly from the doorway.
Pei Yutang sneered inwardly.
The other spot for outstanding employee will, of course, go to her.
She was confident that she was the best one besides the team leader.
