Chapter 926: Accident

Little Xingxing had been in poor health since he was young, so he was thinner than children of his age.

There was not much meat on his small face, his eyebrows, nose, mouth and facial shape were similar to when Shangguan Wan was young. Only his eyes were different, beautiful and upturned.

Sometimes Shangguan Wan would think of that man when she stared at that pair of eyes.

Perhaps she missed him too much, but she felt that the lazy and handsome expression Little Xingxing sometimes showed looked like him.

Little Xingxing inherited Shangguan Wan’s talent and grew up interested in firearms. Normally as long as school ended or during school holidays, he would come to the camp.

The maid taking care of Little Xingxing was chasing after him. Little Xingxing was small and thin but he ran faster than anyone else. When the maid caught up with him, she was slightly breathless.Seeing that Shangguan Wan was training, she was nervous. Little Xingxing hastily replied for her, “I wanted to come over myself, it’s not Nanny Mary’s fault.”

Mary was the maid brought by Shangguan Wan from the Shangguan house. She had served Shangguan Wan’s mother before and was always loyal to her.

But in the camp, she had always been strict and did not allow her family to come during her training periods without letting her know first.

Before Shangguan Wan could say anything, she heard Little Xingxing say, “I only came because I heard Uncle Wu mention me!”

The little thing was gangster-like and mischievous.

Instructor Wu could not help but laugh and he nodded. “Yes, it’s like what Little Xingxing said, I did mention him.”

Instructor Wu took Little Xingxing to the front of the new recruits and put his hands on Little Xingxing shoulders. “Are you all still unconvinced when I said that your level of shooting is not as good as a child?”

A bold rich young man came forward and said, “Instructor, don’t fool us. He’s such a young child, even if he’s the son of the lieutenant, it’s impossible for him to know how to shoot! No matter how bad we are, we’ve been learning for a few days already!”

Instructor Wu looked at Little Xingxing. “How about it, do you want to compete with them?”“Rather than talk, let’s learn from one another!”

Shangguan Wan heard her son’s words and the corner of her lips twitched. “Xingxing, don’t play around.”

Instructor Wu looked at Shangguan Wan. “Lieutenant, let Xingxing show them and let this group of brats see their own level. They don’t find it embarrassing, but I do!”

“Instructor, we’re all new recruits and it’s already good that we are able to hit the mark. Do you have to put us down like that? How can you compare us to a little kid.”

Instructor Wu’s expression darkened and he commanded order in the team before passing the gun to Little Xingxing.

Little Xingxing lay on his stomach on the ground and looked every part the professional while holding the gun.

Several rich second-generation heirs did not take a child’s shooting skills in their eyes and whispered, “The instructor’s bragging, let’s see how he clears this up!”

Bang. Bang. Bang!

The gun went off.Little Xingxing did not pause or hesitate. When he fired the gun, his small face was very serious.

After he had finished shooting, the rich young man who had spoken first volunteered to look at the target.

Instructor Wu agreed easily.

Running to the target, the young man laughed. “Instructor, only one shot hit the target…” As he laughed, he found that something was wrong and he looked at the target closely. “Oh my god, what the heck? Am I seeing things? Every shot hit the tenth ring? And all were bull’s-eye?”

Little Xingxing stood up from the ground and looked at the young man who was shaking his head in disbelief. He ran to Shangguan Wan and raised his eyebrows, looking like a little bully. “How is it? Wanwan, I didn’t embarrass you, did I?”

Shangguan Wan’s eyebrows jumped when she heard him call her ‘Wanwan’.

This child had been weak and sickly since he was small and she thought he would be well-behaved and sensible when he grew up, but in fact, he was very playful.

“Call me mom, don’t call me Wanwan anymore.”

Little Xingxing stuck out his tongue, straightened his body and saluted to Shangguan Wan. “Yes, Mom Wanwan.”The new recruits were all amused by the little fellow.

Shangguan Wan held her forehead. She instructed for Instructor Wu to train the new recruits well and left, pinching the naughty boy’s ear.

Although she was pinching him, Shangguan Wan did not exert any strength.

“Madam Shangguan, be gentle. Our family does not advocate violence!”

Shangguan Wan stuffed the naughty little thing into the car.

The chauffeur covered his mouth and laughed when he saw the scene behind. The past few months, Young Miss did not talk or smile much and seldom relaxed the frown on her face.

If it was not for Little Young Master’s liveliness at home, he did not know how solemn it would be.

On the way back, Shangguan Wan was angry with the little fellow again. The teacher had sent a message to her, saying that the little fellow declared in front of the teacher that studying was useless, holding guns and leading an army was where the real talent lay.

After reading the message, Little Xingxing ignored Shangguan Wan and his handsome and exquisite face approached her. “Wanwan, don’t be angry. If you’re angry the wrinkles at the corners of your eyes will come out.”

Almost instinctively, Shangguan Wan immediately raised her hand to touch her face.“Hahaha, I’m kidding. Our Wanwan is a natural beauty, you’re beautiful even when you’re angry.”

Shangguan Wan glared at the naughty boy, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She raised her index finger and poked his forehead. “You must behave yourself in school in the future.”

“It’s not that I’m not well-behaved, but the things we’re learning are too easy. It’s an insult to my intelligence!”

Shangguan Wan was speechless.

The chauffeur and maid were laughing at the conversation between mother and son.

By now, the car had arrived at the city. They passed an intersection and after waiting for the traffic lights, a hurrying figure suddenly burst out from the road just as the car was about to move.

The chauffeur slammed on the brakes.

But he was a step late and the woman who had run out fell to the ground.

The chauffeur let Shangguan Wan know before he hurried down the car.

Fortunately, the woman who was knocked down was not seriously injured, only her knees were scraped. The woman knew that she was knocked down because she dashed out and she did not blame the chauffeur. “I was in a hurry to catch the bus across the street.”

Shangguan Wan also got out of the car and looked at the woman who was in a hurry. She frowned and said, “Auntie, it’s dangerous for you to do that. Your knees are injured, we’ll take you to the hospital first!”

The woman waved her hand hurriedly. “No, no. I still have to go back to cook dinner for my employer. To tell you the truth, my employer is a strange-tempered person and doesn’t like people being late. If I don’t arrive on time, he will fire me! The pay is good, so I don’t want to lose this job. I’m really okay, thank you all!”

Looking at the frightened woman departing, the chauffeur could not help muttering, “What employer would be so unreasonable?”

Not wanting to gossip about people, Shangguan Wan said, “Let’s go back,” before getting back into the car. But in her heart, she did not have a good impression of the employer mentioned by the woman.

Shangguan Wan had finally decided to settle down in Yukou Border and she built a three-storey house here.

The courtyard was full of flowers and plants and the servant had grown vegetables in the backyard.

Little Xingxing went next door to play with his friends, and the maid was cooking while Shangguan Wan sat on the swing of the yard, answering her phone.
