Chapter 1033 - Chapter 1033 Chapter 1032 Rumors

Chapter 1033: Chapter 1032: Rumors Chapter 1033: Chapter 1032: Rumors Lu Jin stuck his head in, his body still outside the door, and asked cautiously, “Boss, are we heading back?”

“No! I need you to do something for me.”

“You just say the word, Boss.”

“Have Yu Xiaoxiao give Owl Dragon and the military academy a heads-up, and let Huo Kewei go get He Shasha out.”

“Sure thing!”

Lu Jin vanished like a puff of smoke.

October had arrived, but the sun was still scorchingly hot, making it half a month without rain, training under the glaring sun every day. The freshmen, who at the start were whining incessantly and collapsing left and right, had now become accustomed to the routine.

On the training field, today’s much-anticipated shooting practice was taking place.

In the queue, Zhuo Xiaoxiao followed behind He Shasha, whispering, “When’s Nan Fei coming back? I’m dying to see her.”

He Shasha gave her a cold look and said impatiently, “What are you pining for? I bet you’re just missing her snacks!”

“It’s all the same,” Zhuo Xiaoxiao said nonchalantly.

Just then, Chen Yuanyuan, who had already had a turn at the shooting range, came scurrying over like a monkey. She whispered excitedly, “Have you heard the latest rumors?”

“Who has the energy for rumors when we’re this exhausted?””

“You’re not busy?”

Chen Yuanyuan looked at them as if they’d disappointed her. “It’s about Nan Fei. Aren’t you guys curious?” Were these two dense? No matter how tired she was, nothing could suppress her curiosity!

Every great scientist nurtured their curiosity from a young age.

“Out with it! What’s the rumor?” Zhuo Xiaoxiao was indeed interested.

He Shasha rolled up her sleeves in anger, “Whoever dares to talk smack about Nan Fei behind her back, I’ll beat them to a pulp.”

“It’s nothing like that. Everyone’s whispering that Nan Fei has a really impressive background!” Chen Yuanyuan said, her eyes shining with excitement. “Everyone’s saying Zhou Xiang amounts to nothing! Her background’s only impressive in front of us, but it’s worthless in front of Nan Fei.”

“For real? Doesn’t look like it. Doesn’t Nan Fei’s family own a food factory?” Zhuo Xiaoxiao was still hung up on all the tasty snacks Nan Fei brought from home!

“I know her family owns a food factory, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t another background!”

“Where did you hear this?”

“Remember, the last time Nan Fei took leave, two men came to pick her up? Some classmates overheard the instructors talking about it in the cafeteria.”

Chen Yuanyuan’s expression turned even more mysterious, her voice trembling with excitement.

“Those two men are said to be special guests for the military exercise. One’s a regimental commander and the other’s a naval ship captain. How about that? Impressive, huh? I really regret not taking a closer look back then. When Nan Fei comes back, I’ll have to get the full story.”

They were in the middle of their conversation when suddenly, someone outside the field yelled, “He Shasha, someone’s looking for you!”

Everyone turned their heads and saw a figure standing in the distance outside the shooting range. He was in a crisp military uniform, standing tall and distinguished.

The major’s insignia glittered in the sunlight.

Zhuo Xiaoxiao stared at Yu Xiaoxiao, forgetting to breathe.

Chen Yuanyuan’s mouth hung open, and it took her a while to come back to her senses, exclaiming, “Holy shit!” So, was this the impressive background they were talking about?

At six in the evening, Fu Xinwu paced back and forth across the street from his villa, a bag emblazoned with the medical college’s logo in his hand, muttering, “Why aren’t they here yet? Could my aunt have forgotten? I should have never bailed this afternoon.”
