Chapter 1707 Self-Service Barbecue

The playground suddenly burst into warm applause and cheers, and Duan Jinglin's name echoed in the crowd, as if he had become today's hero. He walked up to the podium, took the trophy, and finally showed a rare smile on his face, which was a kind of satisfaction and pride that radiated from the inside out.

But Yue Ming, standing among the crowd, was filled with disappointment. He only finished fifth, which was far from his expectations. He looked down at his hands, as if questioning himself: "Why can't I do it? I've obviously worked very hard..."

After the game, Qin Yuan found Yue Ming. He saw the frustration in Yue Ming's heart and patted him gently on the shoulder: "Yue Ming, don't be discouraged. The competition is just a way to test your current level, it does not represent everything about you."

Yue Ming raised his head and looked at Qin Yuan, confusion and unwillingness flashed in his eyes: "Instructor, am I really not suitable to be a sniper? Why am I still not as good as Duan Jinglin despite working so hard?"

Qin Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, but quickly regained his composure. He pulled Yue Ming aside and said earnestly: "Yue Ming, do you know? A real warrior is not one who is always undefeated, but one who can still stand up and continue to move forward after failure. The reason why Duan Jinglin can Becoming a champion is because he has put in more effort and sweat than you, and he has rich experience and extraordinary talent, but this does not mean that you have no chance to surpass him.”

When Yue Ming heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, but was immediately replaced by doubt: "But, I have tried very hard, why can't I get the shot right?"

Qin Yuan smiled slightly and explained: "Effort is important, but method is equally critical. Your problem before was your ability to predict, but now, what you need is more refined training and an in-depth understanding of tactics. Remember "Shooting is not just about pulling the trigger, it involves the perception of the environment, the judgment of the target, and the adjustment of one's own state, which all require time and experience to accumulate."

Listening to Qin Yuan's words, Yue Ming gradually understood in his heart. He nodded, with a firm light shining in his eyes: "Instructor, you are right. I will not give up. I will continue to work hard until one day I can stand on the podium for everyone to see. My light!"

Qin Yuan nodded with satisfaction. He knew that Yue Ming had an indomitable spirit and perseverance. He patted Yue Ming on the shoulder and encouraged: "I believe in you, Yue Ming. You have extraordinary potential and talent. As long as you work hard, one day you will become the pride of our company."

The night fell, stars dotted the deep night sky, and the hustle and bustle in the company gradually subsided, leaving only the occasional chirping of insects and the rustling of the distant mountains and forests. On the playground, a dim yellow street lamp lit up alone, stretching Yue Ming's figure, making him look particularly lonely. He was holding an empty gun and was concentrating on the simulated gun practice. Every action of raising the gun, aiming, and pulling the trigger seemed so serious and decisive, as if he was engaged in a silent contest with an enemy in his heart.

Qin Yuan ended his day's patrol and was about to go back to his dormitory to rest when he accidentally saw the lonely and determined figure on the playground. He stopped and observed Yue Ming quietly, feeling a surge of complicated emotions in his heart. This young man has become more silent and persistent since he failed in the last shooting competition. In addition to completing the prescribed training tasks every day, he also gives himself extra meals and practices alone on the playground until late at night. Qin Yuan knew that Yue Ming was competing with him and was still brooding over that failure.

"Yue Ming, it's so late, are you still practicing?" Qin Yuan's voice sounded in the silent night sky, with a hint of gentleness that was not easy to detect.

Yue Ming looked up when he heard the sound and saw Qin Yuan. He was slightly startled. Then he put away the empty gun in his hand and stood up straight: "Instructor, are you still awake?"

Qin Yuan walked slowly to Yue Ming and gave him a deep look: "I saw you practicing shooting alone here, so I wanted to come over and have a look. Why, are you still worried about the last game?"

Yue Ming pursed his lips and did not answer directly, but the determination in his eyes betrayed his heart. He whispered: "Instructor, I feel that I am not good enough. I want to become stronger, strong enough to protect everyone and prove myself."

When Qin Yuan heard this, he sighed softly. He understood Yue Ming's mood, and also understood the unwillingness and desire in his heart. But he also knows that rushing for success is often counterproductive, especially for a skill like shooting that requires extremely high concentration and mental quality.

"Yue Ming, do you know? Shooting is not only a competition of skills and physical strength, but more importantly, mentality." Qin Yuan said earnestly, "Your skills are already very good, but your heart is not calm enough. If it is quiet, the gun will be unstable, and if the gun is not stable, the bullet will not be fired. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hearing this, Yue Ming fell into deep thought. He recalled his training during this period. He was indeed too impatient. He always wanted to improve his marksmanship in a short period of time, but ignored the most essential thing in shooting - inner peace and concentration.

"Instructor, you are right." Yue Ming raised his head and looked at Qin Yuan, his eyes flashing with determination, "I am too impatient. I always think about getting stronger quickly, but I forget that shooting requires Be patient and calm. From today on, I will adjust my mentality, take my time and go one step at a time.”

Qin Yuan looked at Yue Ming, a hint of relief flashed in his eyes. He knew that this young man had understood his words and found his own direction. He patted Yue Ming's shoulder and encouraged: "Yue Ming, I'm very happy that you can think so. Remember, the real strong man is not the one who is always undefeated, but the one who can stand up again after failure and become more powerful." People who keep moving forward with determination. You have extraordinary talent and potential. As long as you can maintain inner peace and concentration, I believe you will be able to become an excellent sniper.”

Yue Ming nodded, his heart full of gratitude and motivation.

The setting sun is like blood, falling on every corner of the military camp, casting a soft glow on this land full of fortitude and passion. On the training ground of the Women's Special Forces Team, a group of female soldiers with strong figures and firm eyes were sweating profusely. Their figures looked particularly heroic in the sunset. At this moment, their instructor, Ye Cunxin, was standing in a corner of the training ground, looking deeply into the distance, thinking about something important in his mind.

Ye Cunxin is a female instructor with a soft name but a strong personality. She not only has excellent military qualities, but also has a heart that is unwilling to be mediocre and has the courage to challenge. She knows very well that although the women's special forces team has natural disadvantages in some aspects, as long as they undergo scientific training and unremitting efforts, they can also become the best on the battlefield. Therefore, she has been committed to improving the overall strength of the team, and this time, she has a bold idea - to hold a skills competition for the women's special teams, and invite Qin Yuan, the recognized tactician of the entire company, to be the judge and guide.

Thinking of this, Ye Cunxin decided to go find Qin Yuan in person. She adjusted her military uniform, took firm steps, and walked towards Qin Yuan's office.

Qin Yuan's office is simple and plain, with several maps and tactical boards hanging on the wall, and some military books and documents scattered on the table. At this time, Qin Yuan was immersed in a pile of data, his brows furrowed, as if he was troubled by a certain problem.

"Report!" Ye Cunxin's voice sounded outside the door, breaking the silence in the room.

Qin Yuan raised his head and saw that it was Ye Cunxin. He was slightly startled, and then motioned for her to come in: "Cunxin, what's the matter?"

Ye Cunxin walked into the office and stood up straight, with a determined light in her eyes: "Instructor Qin, I'm here to ask you a favor."

Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows and signaled Ye Cunxin to continue.

"Our women's special team is planning to hold a skills competition. We would like to invite you to be a judge and give us some guidance." Ye Cunxin said straight to the point, her tone full of expectation.

Qin Yuan frowned slightly when he heard this, as if he was weighing something. After a moment, he shook his head: "Cun Xin, it's not that I don't want to help, it's that I've been too busy recently. There are so many things at hand that I really can't do anything at all."

When Ye Cunxin heard this, she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, but she did not give up, but tried to find reasons to persuade Qin Yuan: "Instructor Qin, I know you are very busy, but this competition is of great significance to our women's special team. We hope that through this competition, we can not only improve the morale of the team, but also discover our shortcomings so that we can better improve. As the recognized tactician of the whole company, your guidance and suggestions are priceless to us. .So please do this.”

Qin Yuan looked at Ye Cunxin, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes. He knew that Ye Cunxin was a pursuing and responsible instructor. Since she made this request, she must have her reasons. However, Qin Yuan was still a little hesitant. After all, he did have a lot of things at hand, and this game had no direct interest for him.

At this moment, Ye Cunxin suddenly had an idea. She smiled slightly and said: "Instructor Qin, if you agree to be the judge and give us some guidance, I will treat you to a big meal. How about it? You choose the location. , you order the food, I’ll treat you!”

When Qin Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. He didn't expect that Ye Cunxin would "tempt" him in this way. However, to be honest, Qin Yuan is not a person who is easily tempted by material things, but Ye Cunxin's sincerity and determination moved him a little. He thought for a while and felt that maybe he could use this competition to observe the strength and potential of the women's special team, which would be a supplement to his work.

So, Qin Yuan nodded and said with a smile: "Cun Xin, you are really a master of negotiation. Well, I promise you, I will be the judge and give you some guidance. However, the big meal is waived, and I will not I don’t care about that. I just hope that you can truly improve your strength through this competition and become the best on the battlefield.”

Ye Cunxin was overjoyed when he heard the words. She excitedly held Qin Yuan's hand and thanked her repeatedly: "Instructor Qin, thank you so much! Don't worry, we will do our best to live up to your expectations!"

Qin Yuan smiled and nodded, full of expectations for this competition.

At dusk the next day, the setting sun filled the sky like molten gold, coating the small military camp town with a warm glow. Qin Yuan put on his casual clothes and walked out of the camp easily, his heart full of anticipation for the upcoming dinner with Ye Cunxin. Since he agreed to Ye Cunxin's invitation yesterday, images of various high-end restaurants and exquisite dishes have appeared in his mind from time to time. After all, in his impression, Ye Cunxin's perseverance and extraordinaryness should be worthy of a meal with everyone. Different dinners.

According to the agreed time, Qin Yuan arrived at a restaurant in the center of the city. The neon lights flashed at the door, and the four characters "self-service barbecue" were clearly visible. He was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart: "Buffet buffet? This... this is different from what I imagined." But then he thought about it, maybe Ye Cunxin wanted to give him a surprise, and experience a different style. Unknown.

Entering the restaurant, Qin Yuan looked around and found that it was indeed an ordinary self-service barbecue restaurant, full of people and filled with smoke, which was very different from the quiet and elegant dining environment he expected. He found the seat reserved by Ye Cunxin. Ye Cunxin was already sitting there, dressed in casual clothes with a bright smile, and was busy putting ingredients on the baking sheet.

"Instructor Qin, you're here!" Ye Cunxin looked up and saw Qin Yuan and greeted enthusiastically, "Sit down quickly, I specially chose this self-service barbecue restaurant with a good reputation for you. I heard that the ingredients are fresh and the taste is very good. Not bad!”

Qin Yuan forced a smile, and after sitting down, he tried to find a topic: "Cun Xin, actually I always thought you would take me to try some special cuisine, but I didn't expect it to be a buffet barbecue."

Ye Cunxin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Instructor Qin, don't tell me you haven't had a buffet barbecue? This is a down-to-earth enjoyment. You can do it yourself, have enough food and clothing, and experience the fun of cooking. I think this is better than those The stereotypical, high-end so-called high-end restaurants are much more interesting.”

Qin Yuan smiled bitterly. He had indeed eaten the buffet barbecue, but he never thought that it would be associated with Ye Cunxin's "big meal". What he wanted to express was the difference in expectations, but he didn't want to dampen Ye Cunxin's interest, so he changed the topic: "Cunxin, you did a good job in organizing this game, and the team members performed very well. You Indispensable. ”

A trace of pride flashed in Ye Cunxin's eyes: "That's all thanks to instructor Qin's guidance. Without your help, we wouldn't have made such rapid progress. Speaking of which, I also prepared a small gift to thank you for your help this time."

With that said, Ye Cunxin took out a delicate small box from her bag and handed it to Qin Yuan. Qin Yuan opened it and saw that it was a customized military badge with the words "Salute to the most beloved instructor - Qin Yuan" engraved on it, and the emblem of the women's special team on the back. Although this gift was simple, it was full of sincerity and made Qin Yuan's heart warm.
