Chapter 786: Shooting Lesson
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The afternoon sun shone through the windows of the shooting classroom and onto the classroom floor, reflecting bright spots of light.
The students in the class focused on aiming at the target and tried to adjust the muzzle to find the best angle to shoot.
Lin Yin stood at the firing line, her hand holding the gun tightly, her deep eyes fixed on the target in front of her.
Her index finger pulled the trigger again, and there was a vibration from her palm. The next second, the bullet deviated from the target.
Even though Lin Yin felt that she was already aiming seriously, her shooting was not ideal.
In the past, when she threw stones, she had never missed so badly. Lin Yin couldn’t help but feel a little depressed.
Hou Ning walked to Lin Yin’s side with a cold gaze. Looking at the results of Lin Yin’s shooting, she said calmly, “Lin Yin, there’s still a lot of room for improvement in your shooting skills. A great deal!”
Lin Yin could hear the mockery in Hou Nings tone, but she did not refute. She said frankly, “Instructor, you’re right. I wonder if you have any guidance for a student like me? After all, I took ten days off. I only started shooting after asking my classmates. Instructor, you haven’t taught me.”
Lin Yin looked straight into Hou Ning’s sharp but mocking eyes without any anger or frustration.
Hou Ning smiled. She didn’t expect Lin Yin to be so calm. She silently gave her a secret shot.
“That’s true. I didn’t teach you.” Hou Ning wasn’t angry at Lin Yin. She just sneered and nodded. “I can teach you, but shooting is about talent. Even if some people learn, they might not be able to hit accurately.”
With that, Hou Ning didn’t even put on her protective gear. She took the gun from Lin Yin’s hand and smiled at her. “Watch carefully.”
Hou Ning retracted her gaze from Lin Yin. The moment she turned to face the target, her body straightened and her expression turned serious.
Lin Yin had to admit that Hou Ning was like a natural warrior. She stood tall and was solemn. As she stood there, her entire body shone, making it impossible for one to look away.
The classmates beside her also stopped and watched Hou Ning shoot.
Hou Ning stood at one end of the range, her eyes focused and determined. The gun in her hand seemed to be an extension of her. The gun shone with a cold silver light that could not be ignored. As soon as she raised the gun, it was as if she had raised an invitation to challenge. It made people hold their breaths and wait for the gunshot.
Lin Yin, who was standing beside Hou Ning, could clearly feel that Hou Ning’s breathing was starting to slow and deepen.
The moment Hou Ning pulled the trigger, the entire world seemed to have stopped. The next second, a sharp gunshot cut through the silence and was shocking. The bullet flew out of the muzzle and cut through the air. Its trajectory was like a silver snake that quickly hit the bullseye. The target shook violently under the impact of the force.
Lin Yin’s eyes lit up slightly. She wanted to learn how to shoot. She yearned for the sense of security of having everything in her hands and the feeling of strength from shooting.
Hou Ning lowered her gun and turned to smile at the students. Her eyes were filled with confidence and pride, as if she was saying that this was her home ground.
The students looked at her and applauded thunderously. Lin Yin also applauded sincerely.
Hou Ning looked into Lin Yin’s eyes in surprise. There was a clear light in her eyes without any other bad expression, as if she was really admiring her. Perhaps because Lin Yin’s gaze was too sincere, Hou Ning’s expression softened.
She began to teach Lin Yin how to hold the gun correctly, how to aim accurately, and how to shoot forcefully.
She explained every move and step clearly, not caring that she was still looking down on Lin Yin just now.
In her opinion, teaching was her responsibility, so she would do her best to teach. However, how much Lin Yin could absorb depended on Lin Yin. If Lin Yin couldn’t learn it, she would laugh at her.
She would even laugh at Lu Ming, he was a sharp shooter but he liked a delicate girl who could not shoot no matter how hard she tried. How embarrassing would it be to tell others.
Besides, Lu Ming had once said that he wanted a woman who could fight alongside him.
In Hou Ning’s opinion, this was also why Lu Ming did not reject Grandpa Lu’s matchmaking back then. It was because she, Hou Ning, was also quite capable and worthy of Lu Ming.
She would let Lu Ming know that a delicate girl like Lin Yin was not suitable for him and would even drag him down.
At this moment, Lin Yin, who was already immersed in shooting, had no idea what Hou Ning was thinking. All her thoughts were that if she learned a new skill, she might be able to use it in the future..
