Chapter 81 The Marshal Insists on Hindering Me (6)
An Jianxing walked over and sat down naturally. Compared to his casualness, Huo Yan politely asked first, "Would you mind if we added two more people?"
Shen Nian and Chen Ziyang were both stunned. What a grand scene! Three big shots of this caliber were sitting next to them at a meal. Compared to the two of them, Qiao Yue appeared calm on the surface, but his clenched hands betrayed his nervousness.
Shen Nian quickly shook his head: "No problem, no problem, please make yourselves at home."
"It's nothing, I just miss the days when I first joined the army." Qi Ye said this in response to An Jianxing, but his eyes didn't leave Shi Qi.
Upon hearing this, An Jianxing exchanged a meaningful smile with Huo Yan opposite him, their eyes both showing disbelief.
Qi Ye didn't come here to reminisce about the past, but because he wanted to figure out why he felt that way when he saw Shi Qi. He's always been a man of action, and since he had the idea to investigate, he simply came to find Shi Qi.
And this had a surprising effect; her gaze was involuntarily fixed on Shi Qi, refusing to leave him. Even watching him drink his nutrient solution, she inexplicably thought: "He looks so handsome eating..."
"Qi Ye's favorability +10"
While she was calmly drinking her nutrient solution, she suddenly heard about this inexplicable increase in goodwill and couldn't help but glance at Qi Ye next to her.
He was still smiling at him, his expression showing no sign of anything amiss. Shi Qi thought to himself: "So it really was my looks that caught my eye. In just one morning, without doing anything, I've already gained a full 20 points of favorability."
Seeing Shi Qi looking at him, Qi Ye asked, "Have you finished eating?"
Shi Dian nodded and called to the other three people to leave together.
"Brother Shi, you actually knew our Marshal before, right?" Shen Nian's face showed three parts curiosity and seven parts excitement.
Shi Qi shook his head: "I really didn't know him before. At most, I'd seen him before, but we'd never spoken a word to each other."
Chen Ziyang offered his perspective: "But the marshal clearly came for you."
Shen Nian nodded repeatedly: "That's right, that's right! I think his eyes are practically glued to you."
Shi Qi: "..." What could he say? After all, Qi Ye's behavior just now didn't seem like he didn't know him. He even asked him so naturally in front of them if he could eat it.
"That's enough." Qiao Yue's cold voice rang out: "Shi Qi already said he doesn't know him, why are you asking so many questions?"
These words pulled the two back from their previous emotional outburst, and they realized that their continued insistence on the matter had indeed taken Shi Qi's feelings into account. So they both apologized to Shi Qi.
007: "This Qiao Yue seems like he doesn't care about anything, but he's actually quite thoughtful. He even knows how to help you out of a tight spot."
Huo Yan: "Everyone's gone, are you still going to stay here?"
Qi Ye: "What do you mean by that? I didn't come here for him."
An Jianxing patted him on the shoulder: "Boss, you can fool others with what you're saying, but don't try to fool us. It makes you seem like you're deceiving yourself."
Qi Ye glared at him coldly: "Have you not been getting hit enough lately? Do you want me to practice with you more?"
An Jianxing stood up from his seat and then darted behind Huo Yan: "Old Huo~ Look at the boss, why is he in such a hurry? And you didn't say how many people there were, so why did the boss just say 'him'?"
"An, Jian, Xing!" Qi Ye gritted his teeth and called out his name word by word, his smile quite terrifying.
Huo Yan tried to pull An Jianxing, who was hiding behind him and trying to draw the fighting to him, but he couldn't budge him no matter how many times he tried. In the end, he just let him be: "Boss, let's go out first, so the other soldiers don't laugh at us."
Although Huo Yan tried to quell the conflict in this way, he couldn't stop An Jianxing's stubbornness: "Fine, let's go outside and continue our discussion. Someone's eyes are practically glued to him, but he still won't admit it."
Huo Yan turned around and silently glanced at An Jianxing: It's not that your brother won't help you, it's that you insist on courting death.

During the morning shooting practice, Shi Qi did not see Shi Shuo, presumably still being punished.
The instructors first introduced them to the various types of firearms and ammunition, and then began to teach them how to use standardized training firearms for target practice.
The original owner had already begun systematic training in the skills learned in the military long ago. Combined with the relevant experience from the previous two worlds, Shi Qi was incredibly accurate when shooting at targets. Not only did he not miss, but every shot hit the bullseye.
Everyone present was drawn to him, and even the instructor came up to ask, "Have you studied shooting before?" His shooting skills were already better than many veterans, and even comparable to those of the marshals of yesteryear.
Shi Dian nodded and admitted, "I did study it before."
This was not unexpected for the instructor. He knew Shi Qi's background; children from their social class were usually exposed to these things early on. "You don't need to continue using training guns." He took out another gun from a pile of guns and handed it to Shi Qi. "Try this one."
Shi Qi took the gun, weighed it in his hand, and noticed it was much heavier than the training guns he had used before. After getting used to the feel of it, Shi Qi raised the gun, aimed at the stationary target 100 meters away, and pulled the trigger, firing three shots in quick succession, all hitting the bullseye!
Shi Qi rubbed his reddened tiger's mouth. The recoil of this gun was much greater than that of the one used in training, but it was still completely within his control.
"Qi Ye's favorability +5"
The system notification suddenly sounded, and Shi Qi subconsciously scanned his surroundings, but didn't see the person. Finally, his gaze locked onto the camera in the corner.
When 007 saw this, he looked at the camera and felt a chill run down his spine: "Is he spying on you?"
In the main control room on the other side, Qi Ye and the other two were gathered around. Qi Ye was secretly watching Shi Qi shoot when Shi Qi suddenly started looking around and then fixed his gaze on this spot. Through the camera, he met Qi Ye's eyes.
"Holy crap! Why did he suddenly look this way?!" came An Jianxing's exclamation from the side.
Qi Ye, who had initially told them he was there to observe the new recruits and assumed they had come for the same reason, was speechless.
Seeing this, Huo Yan looked at him and kept coughing and winking.
An Jianxing then realized he had been exposed, so he looked at Qi Ye, whose face darkened, and tried to cover it up: "Boss, don't misunderstand! I wasn't watching him the whole time, I just happened to see him!"
