Chapter 51
"Oh, here’s a lady. Come with us!"
Simon Chin seemed to have just seen her and raised his eyebrows to her.
Wendy Lim waved her hand in a shy manner, but she was pulled up by Charlie Hogg next to her. "I don't know how to..."
Charlie Hogg stabbed the cigarette in his hand when he reached the range.
"I'll do it first. Watch carefully!"
After saying that, Charlie Hogg put on the soundproof headset and took up a rifle. Then he loaded the bullet and pulled the trigger. He did all steps very quickly.
"Bang-"
Staff raised the sign to show that Charlie Hogg made the bull’s eye.
Wendy Lim watched him raised his hand, turned over the rifle, with no excess motion. He has worn a pair of yellow sunglasses and frowned because of concentration.
He was really charming...
In a trance, another man with a rifle appeared in her mind.
The man in her memory overlapped with the one in reality. Wendy Lim looked out into a distance, and she unconsciously muttered, "Why do you both like shooting..."
Charlie Hogg put the soundproof headset on her ears and picked up a lighter rifle.
Wendy Lim took it over but it was still heavy to her.
"Spread your feet to the width of your shoulders."
"Your left arm closes to your chest. Don't move your head, and put your cheek on the butt of the rifle."
Wendy Lim did as he said, and followed his instruction carefully.
She had never touched a gun, so it was difficult for her to understand his words. Her posture even was not correct after quite a long time.
All of a sudden, his hot breathing was approaching her.
With a strong chest on her back, Wendy Lim knew who it was without looking back. Even if she was holding her breath, she could still feel the faint smell of cigarettes as well as his steady and strong heartbeats.
She was wearing a pair of sneakers. Charlie Hogg was a head taller than her, and his chin was right above her head.
It was a very intimate posture.
Wendy Lim couldn't control her heartbeats.
Charlie Hogg held her hands from behind and helped to adjust her posture. "Concentrate, don't be so stiff." NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Because of the soundproof headset, he was afraid that she couldn't hear him, so he got closer to her deliberately. He seemed to be breathing on her ear. Even Wendy Lim could hear the sound of her swallowing.
"Can I have someone else to teach me?"
She licked her dry lips and couldn't bear it.
"No." Charlie Hogg refused. After a moment of silence, he added, "The coaches here are all men."
"..." Wendy Lim didn't know what to say.
She wanted to say that even a male coach was better than him, but she swallowed back her words when she met his eyes.
Charlie Hogg began to threaten her. "If you can’t learn how to shoot, I'll let you down on the ground and learn to shoot!"
"Okay!" Wendy Lim had no choice but answered.
A few minutes later, she could do better. Charlie Hogg asked her to pull the trigger.
"Bang-"
An extremely loud sound echoed in the range.
Wendy Lim was embarrassed.
She missed the target...
The red bull's eye was clear and there was no sign of being hit. Charlie Hogg's face darkened, and he said, "Once again."
Wendy Lim rubbed her purlicue, which had been numbed, and said in a weak tone, "Can I stop..."
To be honest, she was not interested in shooting. "Shooting can boost your concentration and release pressure." Charlie Hogg raised his arms to indicate she should continue, "You can imagine that a target is a person who you hate, and then you'll feel very good when you hit it."
A person who she hated?
Wendy Lim stole a glance at him in silence.
“Bang!"
She pulled the trigger again and hit the target.
Wendy Lim was surprised. She turned her head aside and found that he was squinting at her. "What's wrong?"
"You didn't compare the target to me, did you?" Charlie Hogg asked in a probing tone.
"No..." Wendy Lim swallowed guiltily after say that.
Simon Chin, who was in the next cubicle, came over with his mobile phone and said to them, "My father called me just now, so I have to go back. How about you? Are you going to leave with me or continue to do it here?"
Wendy Lim felt a little embarrassed when she heard the word “do".
Charlie Hogg looked at her red purlicue and said, "Let's leave together."
When they came out of the club, it was just getting dark.
When they stopped at the red light, Charlie Hogg suddenly asked, "Who is the man?"
"What?" Wendy Lim blinked. "What you have said in the club. Except me, what's the name of the other man who likes to shoot?" Charlie Hogg put his hands on the steering wheel and squinted at her as if he was very obsessed with the answer to this question.
"Uh!" Wendy Lim swallowed. It was impossible for her to tell him the truth, so she made up an answer, "I watched TV and the newspaper saying that..."
Charlie Hogg satisfied with the answer and changed the topic, "Did you have dinner?"
"No..." Wendy Lim shook her head.
She went directly to the hospital after work and then ran over to him.
Wendy Lim saw that he was searching the nearby restaurants. She thought for a while and said, "I went to the hospital after work. My grandma was transferred to an independent ward. The attending doctor said that it was you that arranged all. I... I really don't know how to thank you!"
Charlie Hogg glanced at her and flirted, "It's easy. You can thank me on the bed."
"..." Wendy Lim blushed.
This was the man!
He was lecherous as an animal. He was always thinking about the thing on the bed."
Seeing that he was replanning the route, Wendy Lim thought for a moment and said, "I don’t want to eat outside tonight. Let’s buy some foods and cook for ourselves."
The noodles that she cooked for him last time was thrown away. She wanted to cook it for him again, which was her own way to thank him.
"Sure." Charlie Hogg agreed happily.
Wendy Lim looked at her watch. The food market should still open. She pointed at signage in front of him and said, "I know there is a small food market nearby. It's just on the way. Let's go there. The foods there are fresher and cheaper than some big supermarkets!"
"Ok.”
Charlie Hogg followed her instruction from the beginning to the end, turned, and stopped as she said.
She didn't know that usually, it was other people to follow his instruction. He had never followed orders from a woman.
There was a large crowd of people in front of the food market. They stopped the Land Rover in a distance, got off the car, and walked to the market.
Lots of people lived nearby, and there was no large supermarket, so the small market was very crowded. There were many stalls outside. Even at night, when you looked in from outside, you could find that it was still quite crowded.
Wendy Lim followed closely behind Charlie Hogg.
She was afraid that she would lose him if she was not careful. When she passed by, she was knocked twice by peddlers’ baskets.
"Hold my hand."
Charlie Hogg suddenly stopped and turned back to her. Wendy Lim didn't understand. "Eh?"
In the next second, he held her right hand tightly and interlaced their fingers.
Wendy Lim was driven forward, and her eyes and his broad shoulders were in a straight line. She lowered her head and looked at their interlaced fingers. Her heart beat faster.
