Rebirth Entertainment My Cold Gentle Husband - Chapter 157
Chapter 157: I’ll Teach you (2)
She knew that this wasn’t a house, but a hidden pathway. Beyond that door lay a tunnel where, during her disabled years in her previous life, Gu Yezhi had taught her how to protect herself.
If that was still true in this new life, then the reason he took her to the tunnel… Bai Qingyan tried hard to show that this was the first time she came, putting up a look of consternation. “What is this?”
Gu Yezhi led her around the brightly lit tunnel to a house with a target standing in front of one side of the wall. Obviously, this was a training shooting range.
Because the tunnel was built in the city, no matter how loud the noise was, it would not disturb the neighbors.
Walking over to the weapon rack, Gu Yezhi very naturally grabbed a silver pistol and handed it to Bai Qingyan, speaking in a very serious tone. “Yan Yan, you must learn to protect yourself. I’ll teach you marksmanship first, and then I’ll teach you self-defense. Even if I’m not with you, you won’t be powerless to fight back when in danger.”
Bai Qingyan naturally understood his intentions and felt touched. She looked up at her husband and met his deep, dark eyes. With great effort, she managed to refrain from asking him if he loved her.
She was still scared.
She was afraid to hear the answer she didn’t want to hear. She really wasn’t sure about Gu Yezhi in this life.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Yezhi looked down at her, and her beautiful face was reflected in his eyes.
She reached out and hugged his sturdy waist, hiding her small face on his chest. “Yezhi, thank you.”
In response to her affections, he bowed his head and softly pressed his lips to the crown of her hair. Then, still holding her in his arms, he began teaching Bai Qingyan marksmanship.
Of course, Bai Qingyan was already proficient in it, but she tried very hard to pretend she wasn’t. Instead of hitting the target several times, she made several holes in the wall.
Gu Yezhi’s expression showed no impatience or disdain. He calmly demonstrated to her how to properly shoot.
Bai Qingyan looked at him standing in the middle of the room, clad in black high fashion shirt and pants. His clothes had been neatly ironed, to the point they still didn’t show any wrinkles. He stood in a standard posture while holding the pistol with both hands, exuding a sense of justice and indifference that could deter ordinary people.
“Bang!”
—One shot, bullseye.
Bai Qingyan took off the safety headphones and rushed over to embrace him. “Yezhi, you are so great!”
Being praised by his woman boosted his spirits. Gu Yezhi couldn’t hold back his excitement and said, “You’re also great! Yan Yan, try again!”
He stood behind her, helping her hold the pistol with both hands. He spoke directly to her ear and his hot breath hit the shell of her ear, making her flush. “Lower your hand.”
“Bang!”
She felt like his breath had invaded her ears and headed straight to her heart. With the warm feeling on her chest boosting her, she tightened her grip on the weapon and shot the bullseye, completely forgetting how she wanted to fake being bad at shooting so Gu Yezhi could continue teaching her.
“Yan Yan, you did it!” He said proudly.
“Beginner’s luck. You have to teach me again.” Turning her head, Bai Qingyan stood on her toes and took the initiative to kiss Gu Yezhi, immediately hiding her face in his arms afterward and feigning shyness.
Pursing his lips slightly, Gu Yezhi felt a remnant of her kiss on them. He raised his eyebrows at her, pleased, as he grabbed her hand and tightened her grip on the gun again. “Ok, I’ll teach you again.”
The couple spent the weekend inside the tunnel. It wasn’t until Bai Qingyan’s phone rang that she suddenly remembered that she had an appointment with the director to see the investors.
