Chapter 172: Chapter 171: Talent

After the incident with Song Qiuqiu, there was some awkwardness between the Chen Family and the Qi family.

Yu Shuhua cleared her throat and began, “I’m really sorry for making you witness that spectacle!”

Lady Chen tried to smooth things over, “Oh, it’s normal to have some noisy disputes with two kids at home! Qi Yue sees her sister inheriting their dad’s shooting talent, and being so outstanding, it’s inevitable she feels somewhat unbalanced…”

Yu Shuhua and Qi Wanli exchanged glances, and due to their consideration of Qi Zhen, neither contradicted Lady Chen and ambiguously replied, “Well, actually both my daughters are very talented in shooting, it’s just a pity Yueyue didn’t continue with it…”

…

Chen Jing and Qi Zhen walked behind their parents. Seeing Qi Zhen’s pale face, Chen Jing asked with concern, “Zhenzhen, are you okay?”

Qi Zhen came back to her senses and shook her head, “I’m fine, sorry to have you see that. My sister and I have never got along well, she’s always been… somewhat hostile to me…”

Chen Jing comforted her, “You two are sisters after all, any misunderstandings, just talking them out would help.”

Qi Zhen shook her head helplessly, “You don’t understand. Ever since we were young, she would take whatever was mine, whether it was our parents’ attention or shooting… moreover…”

Qi Zhen said, glancing at Chen Jing beside her, “Moreover, now there’s you. I’m afraid my sister hates me even more now. I can tell she probably likes you a lot. Ever since that competition years ago, she left home and whenever the family meets, it always ends badly without her speaking much to us…”

Hearing this, Chen Jing immediately clarified, “Zhenzhen, I don’t have any special feelings towards your sister, that day at the dinner table, I was just being polite when I talked more with her…”

Qi Zhen gave a wry smile, “Actually, I never thought about competing with her… I really don’t want to compete over anything…”

From Qi Zhen’s implication, if Qi Yue really had feelings for Chen Jing, then she would not compete with Qi Yue for him.

Hearing this, Chen Jing immediately became anxious and quickly said, “Zhenzhen, how can you see it as competing with her? Whether it’s your parents or shooting, those were originally yours!”

Chen Jing paused, then continued, “And me… you know, I originally came here to see you. Our parents also introduced us, hoping we’d get to know each other, it has nothing to do with your sister…”

Qi Zhen shook her head, “How can it have nothing to do with her? After all, she’s my sister… I don’t want to make our parents choose sides and make it difficult for them…”

Hearing this, Chen Jing became somewhat agitated, “Even if your sister has any ideas about me, that’s her business, it’s irrelevant to me. You can’t sentence me to death over this, can you?”

Chen Jing stared at the girl in front of him, speaking emotionally, “Zhenzhen, I’ve met many girls, but none of them have ever attracted me like you, especially how you are on the field, truly dazzling.

If you are having reservations because of Qi Yue, I’ll find time to clarify things with her, not putting you in a difficult position. I just want to ask you one thing, what do you think about me…”

Qi Zhen didn’t speak, merely lowering her head with a slight blush on her cheeks.

Seeing Qi Zhen’s expression, Chen Jing understood her feelings towards him. A surge of warmth filled his chest, “Tomorrow after the competition ends, I’ll go clarify things with Qi Yue. I’ll handle everything, you just relax!”
