Chapter 47: Sharpshooter
It had been her first time ever in her life. It was unforgettable.
Today was their first day as a real couple, and Tang Yu was in a particularly good mood.
“I want to go visit my father in the hospital.”
Miles immediately brought her to the hospital where Tang Jian, her father, was resting.
Tang Jian was still unconscious. Miles had arranged the best ward in the hospital for him. It was spacious, comfortable, and fully equipped. Her father was well taken care of.
Tang Yu knew that it would not be cheap to stay in such a good private hospital, let alone in such a luxurious ward, and she was very grateful to Miles for treating her father so well. She wanted to thank him, but her words turned into a kiss on his cheek instead.
Miles smiled knowingly. Of course, it had been a piece of cake for him to arrange the best ward in the best hospital. He had opened this hospital under another identity, after all. He controlled 100% of the shares, and the decision-making powers were all in his hands.
Tang Jian was Tang Yu’s father, which also meant that he was his father as well. He would be absolutely safe here.
Of course, when Tang Yu asked, Miles patted his chest and said to her, “This hospital was opened by my best friend. We’re very close, to the point that we would die for each other. Father is very safe here. You can rest assured.”
She was gratified, but still showed a worried look. “You said something last time about my father being tested for long term usage of poison?”
Hearing this, Miles looked troubled and worried. “I’ve been investigating, but I haven’t found any clues.”
“Perhaps the answer to this matter is not in England…” Tang Yu’s expression was complicated. There were some things that she did not want to think about, but in the end, she could not escape.
“Miles, stop investigating. As long as you can cure my father’s illness, the past will be the past.” Tang Yu comforted him instead.
Miles pulled her into a hug.
Tang Yu lingered in his arms for a long time. Then she remembered that she was here to visit her father. She quickly walked to her father’s side and said to her father, “Father, I’m married now. I’m married to a handsome man. He’s treating me well, and he’s very gentle and kind. We’ll definitely be very happy.”
Miles was overjoyed as she said that.
In fact, he was so happy that it lasted a few days. When Adam and Adela invited him to a shooting range a couple days later, he still had a smug smile on his face.
“Married people are just different.” Adam tied up his long blond hair and put on his gloves. He kicked his armor aside beforeing firing a shot to the center of the target.
9 points.
Adela fired a shot as well.
8.5 points.
They went for another go, scoring 8.7 and 9.2 respectively.
They fired a total of 9 shots each.
After that, Miles walked to his window, taking his time. He picked up the pistol with his bare hands before firing continuously without stopping.
“Bang-bang-bang….”
After a total of 10 shots, the screen above displayed a score of 100 points. A golden trophy appeared after, bursting with colorful fireworks.
“Are you even a human?” Adam fired a shot casually, ending his nameless battle. “When are you going to tell her your true identity?”
As Miles put down his gun casually, he took out his phone and tapped out some transmission codes. Then, he raised his head to answer him, “I’ll focus on completing my thesis for now, since we’ll be graduating in six months. After that, I’ll enjoy a graduation trip with Tang Yu.”
“You’re really good, Miles. We’ve been busy for you while you’ve been enjoying yourself out there.”
“Don’t forget that you drank three million dollars worth of my wine,” Miles reminded him solemnly.
Adela had always been quiet. He walked over and patted Miles on the shoulder, meaning that he would take care of his best friend.
Miles returned the pat. Adela was the most loyal.
Adam pretended not to hear it, but when he mentioned wine, his mind immediately thought of the delicious cognac. That extreme enjoyment and the satisfaction that had filled his entire body had indeed been enough to take over one’s mind.
“I can help you with your work, but you have to bring us to play too.”
“I can’t promise that, I’ll have to ask my wife’s permission first.”
“Oh my god, I feel lonely. I have countless beautiful women around me, yet I can’t find a woman with both beauty and talent like my best friend’s wife…” Adam complained to himself, but Miles and Adela both ignored him. It took him a long time to react.
He shot an annoyed glance at the both of them. Adela was focused on practicing his firing, while Miles was lounging lazily on the chair.
There was a smile in his eyes as Miles checked his phone from time to time, looking to see if there were any new messages. When he received one, a happy smile would unconsciously fill his face.
