Chapter 9：Wanna Be My Trainer?

Aslan eyes still gazing at Athena for a some time before Jye Yin hold his hand and led him to take a seat. He follow her to the bench.

"So, since we have eight people here, how about we split into two group." Yu Zhin suggestion makes all of them turn look each other.

When Athena's eye met with Aslan, she immediately lowered her gaze a little.

"Okay." Adrian and Zoro said while others nod in agree.

"So, team up now."

Yu Zhin, Yu Luan, Aslan and Jye Yin in one group while Adrian, Athena, Zoro and Lee Zenith also in one group.

"So, the group who lost will pay for the lunch today. Agree?"

All of them nod.

"Okay. Let's start now."

The first group is Yu Zhin's group. Starting with Yu Zhin. He was a quite good with the shooting.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"9,8,9" the system count, and display it on the screen.

Adrian smirking. "Heh..not bad."

He take his gun and put the earmuff to cover his ear.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"9,9,8"

Athena clapping on her brother score.

"Not yet Athena..Look at my skill." Yu Luan smile and take his gun afterward.

She chuckles. Zoro beside her place his hand behind Athena's seat and chatting with Lee Zenith. That caught Aslan eyes. He feel a bit irritate with this Zoro guy.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"9,9,9"

"See…my lucky number!" Yu Luan smile widely.

"Okay, my turns up." Lee Zenith took out his gun and start to pointing on the shooting board.

"Good luck Zenith." Athena cheer him up.

"Thanks sis.."

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"9,9,10."

"Ahh..Amazing." Athena clap again and shake Zoro's shirt.

"Whoa, princess, calm down. I know your favorite cousin just hit the point." he patted on her head lovingly. It's been his habits to care and touch her with gentle. However, it's make certain someone's eyes turn sore by just looking at it.

Lee Zenith is the youngest elite squad in Lee base at the Imperial City. He surely follow his father's step. He also the only one heir for Lee Zhing and Jack. Thus, he more closed with Athena. Since Athena also the youngest daughter.

Jye Yin wear a knee-length pink dress. Her long hair is tied up with a bun hairstyle and she even wear a fur boot. She really look like a bunny. Cute and soft from the outer.

She stand up and smile to Aslan. "It's been such a long time since I let out some steam off. So, if I can't cope up with your score, Aslan..you need to win it for me, okay?"

Adrian look at Athena. So with others who know about their marriages.

The word 'win it for me' and gesture she gave all along toward Aslan make all of them wonder about their relationship.

Aslan just nod and smile before he wish her a good luck. Athena? Of course she saw everything and heard every single word.

However, she still keep composed and act like nothing happen between them before.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"7,8,9"

Take off the earmuff, she groans. "Aww..I thought I've been improving."

"That's okay. Still impressive result." Aslan comforting her.

Sit back beside him, she said with a pitiful voice. "I need to train more. You can train me right?"

Aslan smile and nod his head. "Sure."

Athena rolled her eyes secretly. She stood up and went to reload the bullet.

She forgot to bring her hair band, so she had to deal with her messy hair. When she want to put on the earmuff, Zoro help her with her hair.

"I have your hair band inside my pocket. Here, let me help you tied your hair first before you put on the earmuff." he said and touch her hair gently.

Tied up her hair with a short ponytail, she thank him and put on back her earmuff.

Aiming at the shooting board, she shoot three time.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"10,10,10." for the straight 3 times.

All eyes fixed on her.

"What?" she ask as she put down the gun and take off the earmuff.

"Whoa! When did you train? I didn't know you're good at guns too." Yu Zhin and Yu Luan was so shocked.

"It's just my luck I guess." she smile and sit down back to her sit.

This time, its Aslan time to shoot at the board.

When he point the gun at the shooting board, his eyes still fixed on Athena.

Athena hid her gaze and look at somewhere else. Didn't dare to look at him. She knew that he is now looking at her.

Jye Yin grit her teeth seeing Aslan start to distracted by her.

"10,10,10"

Also same with her. For the three time in a row. But he didn't even look at the shooting board.

Put down the gun. Zoro take his turn.

He didn't wait long to shoot because he was a bit hungry and he want to settle the bet faster.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"10,10,9"

"Hey princess, wanna be my trainer?" he actually mocking Jye Yin.

Athena smile. "Be my guest."

Aslan divert his eyes to somewhere else. While Jye Yin already cursing both of them inside her heart. But, outer she keep act calm and cool.

"So, our group has lost. It seem it was my fault to be so bad at the shooting. Hmm, how about I treat you all for a lunch, another game and drink at private party tonight?"

"Uhh..I can't. I need to take care of my wife. But you guys go ahead." Adrian rejecting politely. He really need to take care of her wife.

"So, you guys?"

Yu Zhin and Yu Luan look at each other. "Your girl?"

"She at the outside of town right now."

"Athena?"

"Huh?" she turn to look at Zoro, it's look like she was asking for permission.

"Why not? Once in while. It's been a long time since last we hang out together right?" Zoro said on Athena behalf.

"Zenith?"

"I'm free for today."

"Great! Shall we go lunch first?"

"Yes, please. I'm famish." Zoro said.
