Chapter 19: Learn marksmanship

Shang Yucheng immediately closed the door and locked it casually. She walked quickly to the bedroom and said in a low voice, "The people of the Lu family and the police will arrive soon, so you should hide in my room first." I'll wait for the wind to pass and I'll find a chance to escort you out. ”

"Yes, Miss Shang."

The black shadow who came in took off his hat and revealed a pair of radiant eyes, it was Shu Qiang.

Shang Yucheng looked at him and smiled slightly, "Thank you, Mr. Shu." ”

There was a hurried knock at the gate and Lu Jingcheng's eager voice, "Yucheng!" Yucheng! Are you okay? ”

Shu Qiang bowed slightly, turned around and walked into the room.

Shang Yucheng turned around and walked towards the door, his voice had lost his calmness, "Jing Cheng!" ”

As soon as the door opened, the frightened Shang Yucheng threw himself into Lu Jingcheng's arms and asked one after another, "What's wrong with Fang Cai?" How can there be gunshots? Are you okay? ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Lu Jingcheng gently patted Shang Yucheng's hair and whispered comfortingly, "Everyone is fine." I'll take a look at you, you're okay. ”

"I'm fine." Shang Yucheng shook his head in shock and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Shu Qiang shook his head, "I don't know yet." Maybe the police are chasing the culprit! Don't be afraid, the police station will be there soon. ”

Shang Yucheng breathed a sigh of relief, and frowned again, "The responsibility of the police is to protect the citizens, and they can't come until something happens, isn't it too late." ”

Lu Jingcheng saw that Shang Yucheng was a little impatient, and hurriedly followed her tone, "Yes." I'll talk to the police chief tomorrow and make sure they find the person who fired the shot. Also, as soon as the morning dawns, I will find a few people for you to protect you, and you will be safe. ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head with an annoyed expression, "Let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

The police quickly arrived at Lu's house and began a door-to-door investigation, but unfortunately nothing was achieved until dawn. Shang Yucheng, who had not slept all night, looked at the policemen coming and going outside the door, and gently closed the curtains.

Lu Jingcheng handed over a cup of hot water and said with concern, "After making trouble all night, you must be tired." Why don't I call to school and ask for a day off for you? ”

Shang Yucheng shook his head, "Don't bother, I happen to have no class today." She looked up at Lu Jingcheng and smiled reluctantly, "You don't have to be nervous, I won't be so timid, I just feel a little emotional." I don't know when such troubled times will come to an end. ”

Lu Jingcheng shook her hand, "You don't have to think about anything, I will definitely protect you." ”

Shang Yucheng nodded with a smile and gently leaned on Lu Jingcheng's shoulder, "I naturally knew you would." ”

After saying that, she seemed to have an idea. "That's right! Why don't we learn how to shoot? Shang Yucheng raised his head and said.

"Learn marksmanship?" Lu Jingcheng looked at Shang Yucheng with some astonishment, and then frowned again, "What are you doing as a girl learning this?" Do you really dare to shoot? ”

Shang Yucheng said with a smile, "When I was in the United States, many girls knew how to shoot. Although I don't mean to hurt others, if something happens, can't I protect myself? ”

Lu Jingcheng still shook his head, "I will arrange someone to protect you, don't think about these things about using knives and guns, it's not suitable for you." ”

Shang Yucheng turned his head a little unhappily, "You arranged for someone, I'm a womanβ€”do you want people to follow you all the time?" I'm just learning casually, if I can't learn, if I learn, it's a gain. She stood up, "I didn't expect our Young Master Lu to look down on women, I thought you would respect women, it seems that I want to get to know you again." ”

After speaking, Shang Yucheng was angry and was about to walk away.

Lu Jingcheng grabbed her and said with a smile, "If you don't learn marksmanship, it's disrespectful to women?" I don't admit that you want to add to this sin. He brushed the broken hair that was scattered on his shoulders, "If you want to learn, I'll find a way to arrange it." ”

Shang Yucheng showed a smile at this time, "Thank you, Jingcheng." ”

This novel idea aroused Shang Yucheng's great interest, and she said excitedly as if a child had gotten a candy, "That's right! If we learn how to shoot, we can go hunting together and hang out with friends like in the movies. Isn't that interesting? I said, we should call everyone to join in the fun! ”

"Good! It's all up to you. Lu Jingcheng smiled and shook his head, "It's just that if you can't learn, you can't be angry." ”

Shang Yucheng glanced at him, "I'm so smart with ice and snow, how can I not learn?" You will destroy my prestige. ”

"Good, good! You are majestic, you are majestic! When you learn marksmanship, you'll be a majestic cowgirl! Although Lu Jingcheng didn't approve of Shang Yucheng really learning marksmanship, he was a little glad that this new interest had diluted the uneasiness caused by Shang Yucheng's fright. He coaxed Shang Yucheng until noon before he left her and went to the company.

The police conducted a carpet search of the neighborhood, but they never expected that the shooter was hiding in a nearby business. After several days of no gains, I finally closed the team in despair.

Shang Yucheng heard Lu Jingcheng say that the police had ended the investigation, although there were quite some complaints, but there was nothing he could do. Fortunately, except for the gunshots that night, there was no news that anyone was injured, and the Lu family also arranged for someone to guard the entrance and exit near the two houses, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.

Lu Jingcheng saw that Shang Yucheng was not very happy, so he smiled and diverted the topic, "Don't you want to learn marksmanship?" I've made arrangements and will go this afternoon. ”

Shang Yucheng looked at him in surprise, "Really? ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded and said with a smile, "I asked a few people to go together to join in the fun." ”

Shang Yucheng looked at the clock on the wall, "Okay." I'll go out in the morning and look for you at the company at noon. ”

Lu Jingcheng snorted, got up and prepared to go out.

Shang Yucheng seemed to think of something, and said, "Jing Cheng, I plan to donate some books to the church orphanage and send them over this morning." If it's convenient, can I borrow your car? ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded, "Of course you can." I'll just take my eldest brother's car. I'll tell the driver, you can use it. ”

Shang Yucheng smiled and nodded, "Thank you." ”

Lu Jingcheng said goodbye and went out.

Shang Yucheng watched him go out the door and turned back to his bedroom.

Shu Qiang sat on the sofa and looked at a book, without a trace of impatience on his face, when he saw Shang Yucheng coming in, he got up and said, "Miss Shang." ”

Shang Yucheng smiled, "I have wronged you Mr. Shu in the past few days." I've already arranged that Jingcheng's car will take me to Xujiahui Church later, and I will ask the driver to park the car outside the back door and then lead the driver away. If you hide in the trunk, you can avoid the eyes of the Lu family and leave here. ”

Shu Qiang bowed his head and said, "Okay, Miss Shang." After a pause, he asked, "There's nothing wrong with our plan?" ”

Shang Yucheng nodded and smiled faintly, "If there is no accident, Zhao Wenxuan will know whether he can marksmanship - we will see this afternoon." ”

β€”β€”

At noon, Shang Yucheng went directly from the church to the Huijin company. Lu Jingcheng really followed his promise and took Shang Yucheng out of the city.

Shang Yucheng looked at some familiar scenery along the road, and frowned slightly, "Where are you going to take me?" ”

Lu Jingcheng said as he drove, "Of course, I'm taking you to the shooting range." He smiled and said, "It took a lot of effort to borrow this place from Ye Shen." ”

Shang Yucheng turned his head to look at him, "Ye Shen? ”

Lu Jingcheng nodded, "This was originally a military shooting range, but then somehow it fell into his hands. Although it is abandoned now, it can be used if you ask novices to practice. ”

Shang Yucheng was surprised, "Ye Shen has a shooting range, so his marksmanship is very good?" ”

Lu Jingcheng smiled and shook his head, "It's better to ask him to spend kung fu practicing marksmanship and such a boring thing as cutting meat." I think he just took the land and was ready to sell it at a high price. ”

Shang Yucheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, "I see. ”

The time between the words has arrived. Shang Yucheng got out of the car and couldn't help but look at an abandoned warehouse not far away, which was where she and Ye Shen went to find Wu Hong last time.

Thinking of Ye Shen, Shang Yucheng couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, if she could have been more cautious, maybe Ye Shen was still her temporary friend at this time, rather than an insider who worried her.

Since the last time he left the Ye family, Shang Yucheng had never seen Ye Shen again, I wonder if he had heard about the mysterious shooting near the Lu Mansion, and would he suspect him?

Shang Yucheng carefully thought about every detail of her and Shu Qiang's arrangement, and made sure that there was absolutely no evidence left, so he felt slightly relieved. If there is no evidence, even if Ye Shen has doubts, I believe he will not act rashly.

Shang Yucheng was thinking about it when she suddenly heard someone calling her name. She looked up and looked forward, Jia Wenxin was waving to her warmly, and there was another familiar person standing beside her, Leng Hui.

Shang Yucheng smiled slightly and walked towards them.

Ye Shen, Jia Wenxin, Leng Hui and Zhao Wenxuan arrived one step ahead of Shang Yucheng and Lu Jingcheng, and were sitting comfortably under the umbrella enjoying freshly mixed cocktails and snacks.

Lu Jingcheng looked at everything with admiration and said with a smile, "Brother Ye's ability to turn waste into treasure is really impressive. ”

Ye Shen got up quite complacently, "Since you insist on spending an afternoon in this place, of course I will do my best to make the guests feel a little more at home." He pulled back the chair beside him and greeted with a smile, "Miss Shang? ”

Shang Yucheng smiled reservedly and walked over to sit down.

Lu Jingcheng also sat beside her, and said with a smile, "You also brought a bartender?" It just so happens that I do want to have a drink. ”

Ye Shen smiled narrowly, "The bartender is me-" He made a standard bow for a waiter, "I'm always at your service." He walked over to the table with a lot of wine and tools, "What do you want to drink?" ”

Lu Jingcheng looked at him unexpectedly and said with a smile, "Do you know how to bartend?" ”

Jia Wenxin replied first, "Not really." That's what I didn't know until today. She turned her head to Ye Shen and smiled, "If I had known that you had such skills, I would have saved a lot of money for wine." ”

Ye Shen smiled, "Although I don't have the time to mix wine for you back, it's not difficult to save money for you." Wherever you drink, let them hang on my account. ”

"Really?" Jia Wenxin picked up a piece of cake and sent it to her mouth, and said in surprise.

Leng Hui covered her mouth and smiled, "Miss Jia, don't be fooled. I don't know how many young ladies are on Mr. Ye's account, the wine money is small, and the reputation is big. It would not be good to say that Miss Jia was also on Mr. Ye's list. ”

Everyone burst out laughing. Ye Shen shook his head with a smile and didn't say anything more.

Jia Wenxin came to Ye Shen's side, watched with an obsessive look at Ye Shen's skillful preparation of the wine, and hurriedly said, "I'll give it to Yucheng them." ”

Ye Shen hurriedly blocked her hand, "I'll do it anyway." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the tray and walked in front of Shang Yucheng, "Miss Shang." ”

Shang Yucheng hurriedly took a cup and said casually, "There is Mr. Lao Ye, Mr. Ye is really versatile-"

"Miss Shang has won the award." Ye Shen had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he looked at Shang Yucheng without a smile in his eyes, "I have always liked to spend my time on these side doors, it is really not worth mentioning. I'm afraid that Miss Shang won't be able to see it, so I ask Miss Shang to take care of her and be merciful. ”

She naturally understood what Ye Shen meant, and his words were both a request for peace and a threat. It is not only to ask her to keep his secrets, but also to remind her to keep boundaries and not to continue to pursue those secrets about him.

It seems that he really saw through her plan, and knew that today's so-called learning marksmanship was just a trick for her, and what she really wanted to know was whether some of these people were masters.

It's just that he thought that Shang Yucheng's goal today was him.

Shang Yucheng lowered his eyes lightly and smiled faintly, "Mr. Ye is too modest. ”

She couldn't explain the misunderstanding, so she had to let him continue the misunderstanding. Maybe it's not a misunderstanding, if Ye Shen didn't notice anything from beginning to end, today's game might not be aimed at him.

It's just that for some reason, Shang Yucheng was faintly and a little aggrieved.

Lu Jingcheng took another glass of wine on the tray, walked to the side with Ye Shen, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry." Yucheng will never tell your secrets. He smiled and shook his head, "If you ask her to help you cheat, you're pulling her into the water." Believe me, Yu Cheng didn't want to mention it to anyone. ”

He thought that Ye Shen's words were alluding to the fake academic certificate, so he hurriedly clarified for Shang Yucheng.

Ye Shen glanced at Shang Yucheng, who was looking up at Shang Yucheng in the distance, and nodded, "That's the best." ”

After sitting for a while, everyone got up and walked to the shooting range with great interest, picked up the gun that Ye Shen got out of nowhere, and was eager to try.

Jia Wenxin took the lead, raised the gun with it, and asked, "Is that so?" ”

Zhao Wenxuan was standing opposite her, and when she saw her gun pointed at her, she hurriedly flashed to the side, grabbed the gun in Jia Wenxin's hand, and said with a smile, "Miss Jia, be careful." Don't let the gun go off. ”

Jia Wen nodded as if she didn't understand, and said with a smile, "How does Mr. Zhao teach me?" ”

Zhao Wenxuan took the gun in her hand, "Miss Jia, please." ”

With that, the two of them walked to the shooting position and learned in style.

Shang Yucheng looked at Zhao Wenxuan, he skillfully demonstrated for Jia Wenxin, obviously, he did know how to marksmanship.

The fact that he saw it with his own eyes made Zhao Wenxuan's suspicion even greater. Could he be the same other gangster five years ago?

Shang Yucheng's fingers gripping the handle of the gun couldn't help but clench a little.
