Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion

Chapter 73: What Happened? Are You Unhappy With Me?

Not far from them, the target was already all set.

Mo Jiangye took the bow and arrow next to him, got into position, pulled the bow, pointed at the target, and sent the arrow flying straight across to hit the bull’s eye.

“So cool, so cool.”

“Now, you teach them.”

“Understood.”

“Coach Lee, come and demonstrate!” Chen Zhanxiao called out.

Coach Lee stepped up and got into position as the head coach explained. “Your left hand has to hold the bow steadily before you use your right hand to hook the arrow on the arrow rest and the string. For the second step, lift the bow and point at the target. Your left hand has to hold the riser, and your right hand is supposed to hold the nook. Use your left eye to aim at the target and take some time to get the target right. Make sure your hands are not shaking as you stare straight ahead. Once you nail down the target, you can release the arrow.”

An arrow shot forward.

“Cool...”

The boys could not contain their excitement as they looked at the arrow on the target board, rubbing their fists against their palms.

They had tried archery at some amusement spots, where they had gotten to try their hand at shooting arrows at balloons. This would be their first time shooting arrows at a target outdoors.

“Raise your bows and get into position like Coach Lee.”

Curious, everyone picked up their bows instantly as instructed. As they imitated Coach Lee’s stance, they turned to interact with their mates beside them.

The rest of the coaches started to correct their standing position while giving out pointers.

“Ye Erruo, your stance is wrong,” Coach Lee walked over to the protagonist, reached out with his arm, and tried to correct her from the back.

However, his hand was blocked by Mo Jiangye ‘accidentally’ before he could even touch her.

The man took over without a hitch and said to her while holding her arm, “This hand has to be placed in this position.”

Coach Lee could only retreat and turn his attention to other students upon seeing this.

While the man was explaining the steps to the woman in all seriousness, her head was buzzing with alarm.

“I understand.”

As he adjusted her tilting head, he commented, “Pay attention.”

Trying hard to avoid any unnecessary attention, she shrugged the man off.

Mo Jiangye did not prevent her. Instead, he let her go.

“What is she trying to do?”

“Why is she so uncooperative when Young Master Mo is kind enough to coach her personally?”

Many girls could not wait to replace her as they stared at her with jealousy.

“What is it? Are you unhappy with me?” he whispered softly in her ear. Although his tone was frigid, in reality, he sounded more resigned than anything else.

“Not at all, Young Master Mo,” she replied solemnly while holding her back ramrod straight.

“If you’re displeased with me, you can come over and talk to me.” Upon saying that, he turned around and walked away.

“What an idiot! She drove away Young Master Mo. How frustrating!” The girls started to grumble.

“Ye Erruo, why aren’t you moving?” The head coach ranted at her.

Meanwhile, she stood there unswerving. “Coach Chen, I’m not unhappy with Young Master Mo.”

Hence, there was no need for her to follow him.

“Ye Erruo, go over.”

“Yes, sir.”

Fuming inwardly, she reluctantly followed him.

Chen Zhanxiao and a few other coaches looked at her sympathetically and told the rest, “You’ll have to be punished if you don’t follow instructions.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Now, look at the target in front of you.”

The man led the woman further and further away until they reached a place she was unfamiliar with.

“Boss!” A passerby greeted him.

The woman stopped walking.

“Mo... Coach Mo, I really have nothing against you. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back now.”

Seconds later, Ye Erruo was mercilessly thrown inside a room.

After swiftly climbing back to her feet, she stared straight ahead and continued to ignore the other person.

Bang! Mo Jiangye kicked the door shut.

“Are you hiding from me? Don’t you wanna see me?” He carefully sized her up.

“You don’t know me? The gall of you! How dare you say such things to me and throw a tantrum? Hm? Ignoring me for the past few days wasn’t enough for you?”
