Chapter 136: Are You Happy to See Me Jealous?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The darkness made Lu Haiqiao feel like she was in another world.
A stern voice kept ringing in her ears.
“Yes, you didn’t hear me wrong. Today’s target is 30 km.
“You think it’s a lot? It’s not much compared to what we’ll face in the future.
“Are you tired? It’s good to be tired.
“Lu Haiqiao, get up!
“Do you know what training is? This is it! Training your physical fitness and training your heart are both indispensable!
“Hands! Don’t tremble!
“Hold it steady! Do you hear me!”
The dazzling sunlight, the blue sky, the scorching curved track, and drops of sweat and blood..
These were all steps that she had taken step by step to reach the top.
But…
Lu Haiqiao seemed to have thought of something, and her hand stopped trembling. She tightened her grip on the recurve bow.
At this moment, she heard light footsteps approaching from afar.
Lu Haiqiao frowned warily, but when she smelled the familiar fragrance of grapefruit, her expression instantly relaxed.
She was about to remove the blindfold that covered her entire vision when a warm hand was on her wrist.
“Shooting an arrow blindfolded indicates either self-confidence or fear. In your state just now, you were both self-confident and afraid. This is unacceptable.” That warm and soft touch moved from her wrist to her hand.
Immediately after, Lu Haiqiao felt like she was a puppet on a string. Xie Xuan controlled her hand and sent the arrow on the string out.
The moment she let go, she couldn’t wait to pull off the blindfold.
There were two results on the display above her head.
Nine points, ten points.
It wasn’t as bad as she thought.
Lu Haiqiao turned to look at Xie Xuan.
As expected of the person who knocked out three darts from her. Even though her posture just now was very inaccurate, she could still score ten points.
Xie Xuan glanced at the screen and fixed his gaze on Lu Haiqiao. “Have you been trained in archery before?”
He used “trained”.
To be able to score nine points blindfolded, it was impossible to reach this level just by casual practice.
Lu Haiqiao hummed faintly.
Hearing this, Xie Xuan pursed his lips. After a moment, he asked with obvious displeasure, “With Lu Yunge again?”
He deliberately emphasized the word “again”.
Lu Haiqiao was slightly stunned. After thinking about it carefully, she finally understood what he meant.
She suppressed the urge to laugh and deliberately said seriously, “Not with him this time.”
When she noticed his relaxed expression, Lu Haiqiao added, “It was with Lu Xuege, my other cousin.”
Xie Xuan didn’t know what to say.
That was still a man!
Xie Xuan puffed up his cheeks and pretended not to care. Lu Haiqiao took a step forward and gently bumped his shoulder. “My uncle and aunt only wanted to have a daughter, but their first two children were all sons. Fortunately, the third child was a daughter. Otherwise, I would have even more male cousins.”
Xie Xuan didn’t know what to say.
“You clearly know that I’m jealous, but you’re still saying such things!”
Fine!
Lu Haiqiao had a mischievous look on her face. Xie Xuan narrowed his eyes and suddenly held the back of her head with his palm. With a little force, he brought her closer.
He leaned over and smiled. “Are you happy to see me jealous?”
Lu Haiqiao blinked.. “Gosh, Yun and Xue are my cousins, my biological cousins!”
