Hot 90s Wife: The Mafia Boss Has A Goldmine - Chapter 22
Chapter 22 Self-defense
Chen Baiyi didn’t sleep the entire night. When she woke up in the morning, she didn’t feel energetic at all. She looked like a zombie as she went to get the goods with dark circles under her eyes. When she arrived at the place where Dog Two had brought her last time, she pushed open the door and saw He Xiao.
He Xiao saw that Chen Baiyi looked haggard and asked with concern, “What happened last night? You don’t look good.”
Chen Baiyi didn’t want to have anything to do with him anymore. She had already made things clear last time. Now, they were just business partners. She said perfunctorily, “It’s nothing. I just didn’t sleep well.”
When she saw He Xiao’s exposed muscles, an idea flashed across her mind. She could ask He Xiao to teach her some self-defense moves!
“Can you teach me some self-defense moves?”
Although He Xiao was surprised that Chen Baiyi would make such a request, he still agreed.
“Your body is relatively weak. You can use weapons to protect yourself first.”
Then, he found a slingshot for Chen Baiyi. “Watch my demonstration first.”
He Xiao aimed at a bird’s nest on the tree. The bird’s nest fell and the frightened bird that was about to fly away was hit.
How accurate! Chen Baiyi sighed to herself. She couldn’t wait to give it a try.
“I’ll give instructions while you do it,” He Xiao said to Chen Baiyi.
“Hold the bow with your right hand and focus with your left eye. Close your right eye when you use your left hand. When you hold the bow with your left hand, close your left eye. Fix it under your eye and maintain your line of sight parallel to the starting point of the string. This way, you can guarantee that you won’t deviate left or right.”
“The point above and below is the distance between the backhand positioning point and the aiming point. The distance between the positioning point and the eye is equivalent to half of the diameter of the bow gate. As long as the front hand is aimed at the target correctly, it can hit the target.”
He Xiao explained in detail, and Chen Baiyi understood it immediately. She aimed at the tree and hit the tree branch.
“Not bad. You were very accurate.” He Xiao didn’t expect Chen Baiyi to be so talented. He only gave a simple explanation, yet she understood it so quickly. As expected of the woman he fancied.
Chen Baiyi didn’t expect that she would actually hit the target. When she heard He Xiao praise her, she felt smug, but she still said humbly, “I was just lucky.”
“Practice a few more times. Your aim will get better and better.”
He Xiao encouraged her.
Chen Baiyi didn’t rest either. She had to practice this. That person didn’t succeed last night, but there was no telling whether or not he gave up on this idea. If he dared to come, she would definitely beat him up.
He Xiao was guiding Chen Baiyi the entire time. As long as Chen Baiyi made a mistake, he would immediately correct it for her. Chen Baiyi became more and more proficient in using it.
After practicing for a period of time, Chen Baiyi could basically hit the target 8 times out of 10. She was very satisfied with her current results.
She had already learned self-defense. If the criminal wanted to hurt her, it would not be so easy. However…
Chen Baiyi was also worried about something else. The wall in her courtyard was too short. It was very likely that the person had climbed over the wall last night. No matter what, it was best to be prepared.
Seeing that Chen Baiyi looked like she wanted to say something, He Xiao took the initiative to say, “Is there anything else?”
Since He Xiao asked, Chen Baiyi stopped hiding it.
“I also want to buy a batch of red bricks. The wall around my yard is too short and it’s a little dangerous. I want it to be higher and more stable.”
“Can you buy it?”
“Of course.”
Chen Baiyi finally relaxed a little when she heard He Xiao agree.
