I raised stunning young ladies, but they all wanted to possess me.

"That's more like it, my sister."

"They've grown up and know how to fight for what they want."

In his mind, Shen Youwei's smiling voice rang out at just the right moment, full of teasing.

Shen Youyao felt incredibly ashamed at that moment, and the tips of her ears turned almost transparently red.

How could I be so bad...

In order to get Gu Yan closer, he actually did it on purpose...

After a long while, Gu Yan remained silent.

Shen Youyao felt sad and was about to give up on this bold request when Gu Yan walked over.

"There's nothing to be nervous about."

His voice sounded calm. "I'll demonstrate it for you again."

After saying that, he stood to the side and behind Shen Youyao.

However, Gu Yan soon regretted it.

This position inevitably requires being very close to guide the movements.

Shen Youyao has a typical slim waist and perky hips; her hips are full and firm under her jeans.

As soon as Gu Yan stood still, she clearly felt her lower abdomen being firmly pressed against by that soft and elastic touch.

Gu Yan froze instantly, her mind going blank for a moment.

Shen Youyao immediately felt the warmth of the boy's body and a subtle change coming from behind her.

All the blood in her body rushed to her head, and she felt so hot that she couldn't even breathe.

Gu Yan had no choice.

The girl's figure was so good that if he moved away even a little bit, he wouldn't be able to hold her hand to adjust his position.

The only option is... to finish this quickly.

He took a deep breath, forced himself to concentrate, and tried to keep his voice steady. He reached around from behind and grasped Shen Youyao's hands that were holding the gun.

"Relax your wrists, don't tense them."

"Look here...yes, just like that."

His voice was very close, almost touching Shen Youyao's ear, "Come on, get ready... to fire. I'll teach you."

His palms were warm, guiding Shen Youyao's hands to adjust the angle slightly.

"laugh!"

This time, the energy beam was fired, and although it didn't hit the bullseye, it still managed to hit the target, showing a "6 ring".

"See, it's much better, isn't it?"

Gu Yan stepped back slightly, but her hand was still loosely supporting her.

The next ten minutes were spent in this extremely ambiguous and agonizing hands-on teaching.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Shen Youyao's forehead, her body was burning hot, and her breathing was somewhat unsteady.

Gu Yan appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly she was in agony.

If this weren't a solemn and serious military region, and if he didn't still have a shred of reason left... he might not have been able to hold back.

Those ten minutes were pure torture for him.

Finally, a cell phone rang out like a savior.

Gu Yan almost immediately released Shen Youyao's hand, quickly took two steps back, and answered the phone.

"Feed? Boss Chen?"

The call was from Chen Sinian.

He first inquired about Gu Yan's decision, whether or not she would meet with Lin Zhenting.

Then, hesitantly, he said that Cecilia had been acting strangely since she woke up that morning, locking herself in the Glass Bamboo Sea without saying a word, and hoped that Master Gu could come and take a look if he had time.

Gu Yan responded that she would go to the Chen family to check on Cecilia's situation first.

As for Lin Zhenting... let's give him some space first, so he doesn't think he'll agree too easily.

"Okay, I understand."

"I'm going there now."

Finally, Gu Yan hung up the phone and turned to Shen Youyao, who was still standing there, her cheeks flushed and breathing softly.

After Gu Yan released her, Shen Youyao's legs felt weak. She quickly reached out and braced herself against the table next to her where training ammunition was stored. She was slightly out of breath and her heart was pounding like a drum.

"How dare you say I was too forward back then?"

"Now it seems, little sister... you're just as good as her."

"Heh, you really are a lecher, little sister."

In his mind, Shen Youwei's voice, tinged with a mischievous smile, rang out.

However, whether it was Shen Youyao's imagination or not, she felt that Shen Youwei's voice seemed to carry an inexplicable urgency when she said this.

Shen Youyao was extremely embarrassed and weakly retorted in her heart, "I can clearly feel it."

"You...aren't you the same, sister?"

The voice in my mind suddenly fell silent.

At this moment, Gu Yan had composed herself and said to Shen Youyao, "Youyao, I suddenly have something urgent to attend to, so I have to go first."

"I can't be with you anymore."

Upon hearing this, Shen Youyao disregarded her burning body and overwhelming shyness.

A wave of disappointment washed over me.

Clearly... I finally got to be alone with Gu Yan, clearly that so-called condom hadn't even been used yet, clearly the atmosphere was so good.

Why is it like this again?

She mustered her courage, raised her watery eyes to look at Gu Yan, and whispered, "Brother Gu Yan..."

"I... I'm not quite there yet."

"How about... you teach me some more before you leave?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan felt a chill run down her spine and instinctively took a deep breath.

Still teaching?

He was almost unable to control his gun!

This is the military region!

A few more blows and even a saint would break down.

But under Shen Youyao's expectant and affectionate gaze, he hardened his heart and shook his head in refusal: "Next time, Youyao."

"It's really urgent."

The light in the girl's eyes dimmed instantly, and a layer of sadness seemed to envelop her, making people feel sorry for her.

Gu Yan sighed inwardly as she looked at her like this.

This might truly be the last time I interact with the most tragic heroine of the first book in the original series.

He walked over and, just like the first time he comforted her in the hallway, reached out and gently ruffled Shen Youyao's hair.

"good."

It's just a simple action, a simple "good boy/girl".

Shen Youyao, who was still immersed in disappointment and sadness, suddenly felt that the bitterness and sadness in her heart was strangely soothed.

She subconsciously tilted her head slightly and rubbed against Gu Yan's palm, like a wronged and affectionate kitten that had finally been comforted by its owner.

"From now on, I must learn to protect myself."

Gu Yan's voice was gentle, "Even if... if I leave one day and I'm no longer by your side, you must make your own judgment and be brave."

"I'll get angry if I get bullied again."

Hearing these warm words, Shen Youyao felt a sweet warmth welling up in her heart, but then she suddenly remembered the part about what if one day I wasn't by your side anymore.

She froze instantly, a sudden, inexplicable panic gripping her.

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

"Gu Yan-ge, you can't say things like that!"

"Don't say things like that!"

"I will definitely listen to Brother Gu Yan and protect myself!"

May Brother Gu Yan live to be a hundred years old.

Suddenly, she mustered an unprecedented amount of courage, stood on tiptoe, and gently covered Gu Yan's mouth with her hand.

Feeling the girl's soft, slightly cool palm against her lips, and seeing the genuine panic in her eyes, Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, then her heart softened.

He pulled her hand down, held it in his palm, and smiled, "Okay, I was just talking nonsense."

I apologize.

"Practice your pistol skills a bit more, Youyao. You go back with Minister Li, be careful on the way."

"I'm leaving now."

He released his grip and took one last look at Shen Youyao.

This can be considered a final farewell to the girl.

He turned and quickly left the training ground.

Shen Youyao stood there, watching Gu Yan's slender yet upright figure disappear through the door, her eyes filled with unbearable sadness and unease.

She felt that Gu Yan was acting strangely today.

It's really strange...

At this moment, Shen Youwei's voice rang out again, but this time it lacked the previous teasing and instead carried a hint of inexplicable sadness.

"Your brother Gu Yan..."

"He's really popular with girls."

"Countless girls must like him."

"Who do you think he'll marry in the future?"
