Chapter 71: 075 He’s not helping me, he’s helping you

"If I don’t mince words, it definitely throws this normally arrogant and domineering daughter of the mayor off her game."

There is a glimmer of tears in her eyes that is somewhat pitiable.

But Duan Chen isn’t swayed by that,

"You should think about it for yourself. You have plenty of time to play, but don’t waste other people’s time!"

With that, he left without looking back.

Lin Xinglan stood there, stunned, as large teardrops started to "plop" onto the ground.

Song Lili pursed her lips,

"Actually, what Company Commander Duan said is quite right."

"Right about what! Right about shit! What does he know, just blabbering on!"

Lin Xinglan wiped away her tears and glared at Song Lili with reddened eyes,

"What exactly is your relationship with Duan Chen? Why does he help you?"

Song Lili blinked,

"He helps me?"

"You must have snitched to him, telling him I’m not taking training seriously, and that’s why he came to lecture me!"

Song Lili thought to herself, she really is old already, totally unable to communicate with young girls of this age.

"Tang Xiaohua, I didn’t expect you to be this bad!"

"Lin Xinglan, Company Commander Duan isn’t helping me, he’s helping you!"

"You think I’m an idiot?"

"You are an idiot! Do you plan to live off the tagline ’daughter of the mayor of Xilin City’ for your entire life? You should be grateful that, at your age, you have someone like Company Commander Duan who will scold you without any consideration for your feelings!"

"...Tang! Xiaohua! You’re dead meat!"

"..."

"I always follow through on my words!"

Lin Xinglan gnashed her teeth, enunciating each word through clenched jaws.

Indeed, Lin Xinglan followed through on her words, not only showing no signs of reflection but instead intensifying her efforts.

The instructor checked on the one-to-one training results every two days, and Song Lili went from training an extra hour a day to three, and from running five extra laps a day to twenty.

During the lunch break, only Song Lili was left on the parade ground, enduring the punishment under the scorching sun.

As she grimly took her punishment, Lin Xinglan watched on happily.

"That’ll teach you to show off in front of me!"

The instructor frowned slightly and walked over to Lin Xinglan, "Student Lin, you should stop at the right time. It’s not that difficult to train in formation. Tang Xiaohua has been teaching you one-on-one for over a week now; you’re clearly just tormenting her on purpose."

"Instructor Gao, how can you say that? It’s the commander’s order, and she’s being punished because she didn’t train me properly. That’s her own problem."

Gao Jun’s face was square and stern.

Since she was Lin Han’s daughter, he didn’t feel it was his place to say much more. If anyone was to blame, it was truly Lu Ziqing who had given such orders.

"Reporting to the instructor, the twenty laps are completed. May I rest now?"

Song Lili finished the last lap and stood before Gao Jun.

"Go ahead."

"Thank you, Instructor."

As soon as Song Lili finished speaking, she finally relaxed, sweat soaking through her training uniform, whereas Lin Xinglan looked comfortably relaxed.

"Tang Xiaohua, do you admit defeat?"

"Admit what?"

"I told you I’d make your death a miserable one."

Song Lili stood still and smiled lightly at her, "Am I dead?"

"You..."

"What about me?"

"You’re so exhausted! Your training is already twice as much as everyone else’s; what would happen if you just backed down a little?"

"It’s alright, I guess. It’s tiring, but it beats trying to make you train."

"Tang Xiaohua!"

"After spending so many days together, I’ve realized that all you seem to do is glare and shout, holding the group back, and sneaking off to rest in the shade."

"I... "

"Little miss, how about you stop following me around, alright? You make it seem like we’re close."

Song Lili gave her a glance and continued walking.

Lin Xinglan furrowed her brow, muttering, "What little miss, you’re just a little miss yourself..."
