Chapter 844: Just Showing Off
The instructor saluted her back. He looked at Jiang Hua and asked. “Have you learned how to shoot before?”
He had seen the girl shoot earlier, but he was not impressed by it. Instead, he found that every move she made was pretentious and unprofessional. She was undoubtedly trying to show off.
Jiang Hua looked at the instructor and nodded. “I went to the shooting club with my friends before, so I do know how to shoot.”
No wonder.
The instructor nodded. He pondered before he suggested. “The way you aim and shoot is a little showy. The girl in the team next door was pretty good. You can learn from her. Since you have a foundation in shooting, you ought to be able to learn more quickly than the other students.”
The instructor raised his hand and pointed in Huo Yao’s direction.
Jiang Hua looked at where the instructor was pointing. Even though he did not take names, she knew he was talking about Huo Yao.
What did he mean by calling her movement to be showy? She clearly looked like a professional when she shot. If anyone was showy, it was Huo Yao.
Huo Yao was simply acting cool and pretending. Couldn’t the instructor see?
Jiang Hua felt a little angry inside, but she did not show it on her face. Instead, she nodded and pretended to be humble. “Thank you, Sir. I will definitely learn from her.”
The instructor acknowledged softly. He proceeded to give the other freshmen some pointers. When Director Min was done answering the phone, the instructor walked up to him.
Min Jian put away his phone and did not continue looking at the students. Instead, he said to the instructor, “I have to go.”
The instructor knew his boss was a busy man, so he nodded. “Yes, Director Min.”
Min Jian nodded. He turned to walk off the field and headed to the chancellor’s office.
The chancellor of Tsing University was a fellow at the school of Mathematics and Systems Science and also happened to be the director of the Ministry of Education.

After leaving the office, Min Jian drove to the Min residence.
He had not been home for months. Since Old Master Min knew he was coming back today, he kept nagging about Min Jian being late.
“… You are barely home all year round.” Old Master Min looked at Min Jian and felt slightly annoyed.
Even when Min Jian was at home, he sat on the couch with his back straight. “I am busy.”
Old Master Min thought about his son’s profession and sighed. “How long will you be staying this time?”
“About five days.” Min Jian picked up the teacup and took a small sip.
Old Master Min felt disappointed the moment he heard this. “That’s all?”
Min Jian glanced at Old Master Min and cleared his throat without explaining and simply changed the subject. “Where is my older brother? Is he doing archaeological studies somewhere?”
“I don’t know either. Don’t ask me.” The moment he brought up his older brother, Old Master Min looked angry.
Both his sons were like decorations. His youngest boy worked in the army and was barely home while his eldest boy was always out doing archaeological research, so he rarely saw them throughout the year.
At his age, other elderly would get to enjoy family life with their grandchildren. For him, it was as good as having no sons.
Min Jian put down the teacup. After chatting with Old Master Min briefly, he felt like smoking, so he went out to the garden for a cigarette.
Min Yu’s mother had just come home, so she did not know her brother-in-law was back. The moment she saw him, she was clearly surprised. “Jian, when did you get home? Why didn’t you call ahead?”
A young pretty woman was standing beside Mrs. Min.
Min Jian greeted Mrs. Min before he put out the cigarette. “It was a last minute decision.”
