Chapter 186 - 186: Amazing Eunji
"It's okay to change my weapon right?" She asked the in-charge.
"O-f course! Please choose one."
Eunji approached the table on her right and then placed the gun there.
Without an ounce of hesitation, she picked up a real warrior bow and the quiver full of arrows.
She picked ten target knives just in case she would need them.
She wrapped the strap around her shoulder and made sure that it was secured in place behind her back.
She then walked towards the line and closed her eyes.
Then while closing, she could hear that the machine started and the targets were moving rapidly.
For ordinary people, it seemed like the targets had disappeared in the air because of how fast they were moving.
But for Eunji, she could see them clearly with her eye.
It seems like the targets were talking and laughing to her.
She draw two arrows behind her back and aimed at the targets all these while closing her eyes.
She heard the in-charge counting on a descending order starting from the usual number, three.
As soon as she heard him say 'start' Eunji opened her eyes and started shooting the arrow.
After she released, she grabbed another two behind her and then placed it on the bow string and then pulled it towards her as she aimed for her second shoot.
Everyone gasped when the two arrows she had released earlier had managed to hit two targets.
Before they could even recover, the second batch of arrows she released also hit another two targets.
Eunji smirked as she started to have three arrows at a time.
Just like her first and second attempt, Eunji managed to hit three targets using three arrows in such a short span of time.
In fact, her drawing and shooting was so very fast, steady and most importantly, accurate. No arrows and chances were missed. It was like archery was just a play thing to her.
Ten seconds had passed and Eunji managed to topple down twenty five of the fifty targets.
She kept drawing and drawing until she could feel that there were no arrows behind her back.
She now had ten targets left.
Eunji heaved a huge sigh of relief as she draw three daggers and placed it in between the crook of her fingers and started throwing them in the air.
Truth enough, those three daggers hit three targets.
Hearing that she only had five seconds left, Eunji picked six daggers with three daggers each in both hands and threw it in the targets.
She then spin the last dagger around her hand and then threw it towards the target on a curve motion and everyone was shocked to see the dagger piercing two targets in one.
Satisfied by what she had done, Eunji removed the quiver off her shoulder and then placed it back on the table where she got them.
She turned around and saw Nathan with a proud smile plastered on his handsome face.
And then Nathan mouthed something to her and she did what she was told and looked at the crowd.
When she did, she was slightly taken aback when she saw the crowd with their jaws hang open and their eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
Even the military man could not believed what had just transpired.
Eunji felt like she had fun so much that she lost control and went overboard in showing off.
However, when she looked back at Nathan, the latter was now standing and walking towards her in a light and steady pace.
Now, everyone was waiting if Eunji had successfully managed to clear the targets.
When the machine finally stopped, there were no targets left.
"Woah!!!!"
"Wow!!!"
"Daebak!"
"Sugoi!"
Then a huge uproar erupted from the crowd.
Nathan who was now standing in front of her had subconsciously placed his huge palm to cover her ears.
He was afraid that with this loud noise, Eunji may go deaf.
Eunji could only shook her head because of Nathan's antics.
"Done having fun?" Nathan asked her.
"En!"
"Did you enjoy it?" He followed-up.
"So much. But still, shooting with a running target was better than just shooting a very predictable target." She honestly answered.
"Oh!" Nathan made a mental note to remember that.
"Congratulations Student Kim! Master Bai! You won the pink bear and a trip for three days and two nights in South Korea this winter break!" The in-charge enthusiastically told them the prize.
No wonder they were so eager to win this stuffed toy as it also comes with another prize.
"Nah. Give that trip ticket aside from that stuffed toy to them. That's all that I wanted to give my wife aside from the fact that I wanted her to have fun." Nathan said to the in-charge.
"Are you okay with it, Student Kim?" He asked in hesitation.
"Yes. I don't think we would be travelling too soon for now. So, it would be a good idea to give them, each couple who participated in this contest, the trip to South Korea. Nathan and I will be arranging the best accommodation there so you could enjoy your intimate vacation as a couple. But if course, since two pairs of our three couples are students, a parent's consent should be presented."
"Well. That would be so kind of you! Isn't it, everyone?" The in charge asked and everyone nodded.
"It's our form of giving back to everyone. And we have had recently received such wonderful blessing and we wanted to share it to everyone. Oh! And expect more like this to come all through out this week long celebration!" Nathan added.
After they got their stuffed toy, Nathan and Eunji walked out of the stall or the booth while holding each other's hand and with Eunji hugging the stuffed toy on her chest.
She was humming with a joyful melody like a happy kid who had just gotten her favorite toy.
Nathan and Eunji didn't realize that it was already four in the afternoon and an hour more to go before the sun would set.
They had been strolling around the campus that Eunji suddenly asked if they could sit on the park bench to rest.
Maybe she had fun so much today that she easily got tired.
"Sleep. I'll wake you up when it's time for dinner." He lovingly told her.
Eunji didn't bother to argue with him and lay her head down on his lap.
Nathan automatically hummed some tune and Eunji had fallen asleep in an instant.
An hour later, Eunji woke up with Nathan's butterfly kisses all over her face not minding that they were showing affection in public.
Kim Eunji groan when she was about to open her eyes. She slowly got up and rubbed her neck.
"Good morning." Nathan greeted her. "How's your nap?" He added.
Eunji smiled and was about to got up when she felt dizzy all of a sudden and had the urge to vomit.
Nathan used his fast reflexes and immediately stood up to support her.
Eunji was covering her mouth as she felt a second wave coming.
"Are you alright?" Nathan asked worriedly.
He thought that her morning sickness was gone but what was happening to her now?
"I'm fine. I'm just a bit dizzy but it's not as severe as before." Kim Eunji said as she tried to reassure her.
"Oh. Come. Let's get inside. I'll let An Qi to go and check you." Nathan persuaded but Eunji felt that he's only overreacting.
"No. Not yet. Let's do that later. What time as it?" Eunji asked the latter part as she tried to change the subject.
"Almost five thirty."
"I am hungry. Can I eat an early dinner?" She asked sheepishly.
"Of course! Come. Dinner's about to start anyways." She invited.
While they were going towards the cafeteria, Nathan and Eunji happened to meet the girls.
"EJ!" Guo Xiaolan called her out.
"Xiao-xiao!" Eunji called her name back with the same enthusiasm.
"How are you? Wow! We have just separated less than a day and we heard that you had a little exhibition earlier? Girl! You're the talk of the entire school. Funny was that no one had managed to record that on tape just like the other time." Xiaolan emphasized the latter part and Eunji smiled knowingly.
"Good thing a lot have seen it live so they proved that it wasn't a lie at all." Xiaolan added.
"EJ, I didn't know that you're that amazing with every thing. What's that saying again? 'Jack of all trades but a master of none.' However, you mastered everything!" Yun Mei added.
"Well, it's just a pure luck and I happened to be playing archery back then. I just used that as my advantage." Eunji might have said that out of humility but to others she looked like she was boasting should they not known her and the things that she had done so far.
"So, where are you both heading now?" Xiaolan asked.
"Eunji here's hungry. No. More like my wife and babies are hungry. So I have to go and let them eat." Nathan answered on Eunji's behalf.
"Oh! That's great. Eat well Eunji! We're excited to meet them soon!" Though Xiaolan was excited, she still managed to tone down her voice as the news of Eunji's pregnancy should not be shared to the public yet.
"Thank you! My little dumplings are all eager to meet their pretty aunties, too." Eunji answered back.
The girls didn't delay Eunji any longer as they still had a few things to do.
"We still have to do something for the event tomorrow." Xiaolan answered.
"Do you need some help?" Eunji asked them.
"No need. We have enough manpower to manage everything. All you have to do now is to take a rest and be a pretty and cool momma." Xiaolan emphasized.
"Oh. Okay. But call me if you need an extra hand."
"Sure! We will do that!" Xiaolan said though they really have the intention to tire her out.
Nathan brought Eunji to this restaurant outside the campus that he knew the latter would love the food there.
The manager welcomed them at the entrance and lead them to their private room.
After eating, Eunji excused herself as she was going to use the bathroom.
Nathan wanted to go with her but Eunji told him that she's okay and besides, the toilet was not far from the private room that Nathan booked.
"Fine, if you won't be back after five minutes, I will come and find you not minding that it's a ladies room." Nathan said firmly.
"Fine. I'll be back before you know it." Eunji said and winked at him.
Eunji walked out of the private room and headed to the ladies room.
She heaved a sigh when she saw that it was empty.
She chose a cubicle and went in.
She locked the door and then did her thing.
She heard the main door opened and she heard foot steps entering the room.
From the number of foot steps she heard, there were two ladies who had juts entered the room.
Eunji was about to open the cubicle but stopped when she heard something.
"Are you out of your mind Aimee? You're planning to get back with him? For heaven's sake, the man's already married."
"It's just marriage. I won't believe that he's totally over me." The girl named Aimee confidently said.
"Gosh! You're talking like you are not married yourself. Your husband's in the hospital, in comma and then you're trying to commit adultery?"
"Are you really my friend? You should be supporting me and not do the opposite, Chloe."
"I'm just worried that you'll end up regretting in the end."
"No. He was once mine. He married someone who's not on the same level as I do. So I am sure it's easy to take him away."
