Chapter 310: Chapter 292: Secret Confrontation

"I fucking hate you, Master." Luo Qianqian, rubbing her sore legs, looked at Zhang Jin with a face full of grievances, "I’m still a girl, can’t you be a little gentler? The ground is so hard, what if I break a bone?" During the single practice, Luo Qianqian was very "honored" to receive personal instruction from the class leader, which resulted in dozens of intimate contacts with the ground over more than an hour of training. Even Luo Qianqian, who had maintained a ladylike demeanor while eating, couldn’t help but curse.

Zhang Jin raised an eyebrow, "If you were heavier, I wouldn’t be able to throw you, would I?" A dramatic eye roll expressed his disdain.

"Are you talking about Sister Xi? Sister Xi, the class leader is looking for you for single practice!!!" Hearing this, Luo Qianqian called out without any courtesy.

Chang Xi always ran circles alone during one-on-one training because her weight was too much to control. When she heard about the class leader’s single practice, she immediately rushed over at the fastest speed she had ever achieved in her life.

Zhang Jin looked at the dust Chang Xi kicked up, the corner of his mouth twitching, "Ye Meng, you’re ruthless."

According to Wei Guang, Chang Xi was nearly three hundred pounds even three years ago when she was a bit thinner than now...

"Class leader, the capable should do more work, right?" Although she had only been with them for just over a week, Luo Qianqian was clear that these people had already taken very good care of her and her companion. At the very least... They had even been provided with a separate washroom and hot water for showers. Although she had to admit, it seemed like a bit of an abuse of power on Wei Guang’s part, well, for girls under such harsh conditions, they would still try their best to meet their needs.

After a week of training, Chang Xi’s long hair had also been cut short because long hair takes a long time to dry and can get iced up. No one thought to bring a blow dryer. Compared with Luo Qianqian’s chin-length hair, Chang Xi’s was cut even shorter, to the length of her ears, and the person doing the cutting was Luo Qianqian herself. It was lucky she could even see properly, and incredibly, there was no bloodshed. Luo Qianqian herself marvelled at Chang Xi’s good fortune; her first attempt at cutting hair had gone without a hitch.

Zhang Jin couldn’t even begin to perform a shoulder throw on Chang Xi; he could only practice some punching and kicking techniques. However, Luo Qianqian on the side was still causing trouble, "Sister Xi, go for the nostrils!!!"

"Kick him in the crotch!!!"

"Poke his eyes!!!"

She successfully attracted the attention of everyone present, including Chang Xi’s brother, Wei Guang.

"Promising." Wei Guang murmured admiringly under his breath.

"Are you talking about your sister or the Little One?" Qin Liang rolled his eyes, "I don’t think anyone would dare lay a finger on your sister, so those moves would be pointless for her. And as for the Little One, that would be a crime, she’s a minor."

"You don’t know a thing. Look at my sister’s swift and decisive movements, taking action immediately after hearing Little One’s words, without a moment of hesitation. She’s worthy of being my sister," Wei Guang said, quite appreciatively.

"Get down!" Qin Liang suddenly shouted loudly.

Wei Guang instinctively lay down on the ground, looking up at Qin Liang somewhat confusedly, "What’s going on?"

"I just wanted to see if you would act immediately after hearing my word, with swift and decisive actions without hesitation," Qin Liang touched his nose and walked away.

Wei Guang watched Qin Liang in bewilderment, then looked at his sister with a sorrowful expression, "No way? It’s bad enough that I’m under the Great Demon King’s command; is my sister going to be under Little One’s thumb too???"

"Move it, what are you thinking about?" Qin Liang’s voice came from far away, and Wei Guang quickly got up and followed his pace.

Luo Qianqian was thoroughly enjoying her life, but the good times didn’t last long. A notice came, announcing that the entire row was to engage in field training tonight.

"??? Why are they doing this to us?" Chang Xi too was wide-eyed, incredulous as she looked at Zhang Jin, "We’ve been here for less than ten days, right? Is this the right way to treat us?"

"What’s wrong with that? It’s all something we have to experience sooner or later," Zhang Jin said in all seriousness, though inwardly he was also trembling. At night, with two girls, any little noise and wouldn’t they have to listen to a soprano duet???

Luo Qianqian felt a bit jittery inside, it was a dark and windy night, biting cold... She felt that it would be just perfect if a zombie or vengeful spirit appeared right now.

"Boss, are you sure this is okay?" Watching the platoon leader leaving, Wei Guang’s mouth twitched, feeling like it was all targeted at him?

Qin Liang pursed his lips and chuckled lightly, "You’re leading the team, remember not to show favoritism." He then raised his eyebrows and turned to leave.

Wei Guang’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. Had he offended this guy? Why did this kind of thing still require him, the deputy company commander, to follow? But thinking of his own sister, he shelved his complaints. He couldn’t rest easy if he didn’t go, it was better to follow along.

Feeling that the person behind him did not catch up, Qin Liang curled his lips, "Trying to compete with me? You’re still too green." Then he stealthily changed direction.

Luo Qianqian was packing up her bedding roll, even hiding two pieces of beef jerky inside her blanket. This was no joke; if she got hungry in the middle of the night, she could replenish some energy.

Chang Xi and Luo Qianqian looked at each other in the dormitory, neither sleeping, both lying neatly dressed on beds without blankets. Fang Rou, curious, looked at the two, "It’s just a drill, is it worth all this fuss? Your readiness for battle makes me think we’re going straight into combat."

Luo Qianqian grimaced, the night was so dreadful—so cold, yet having to exercise, and then get up on time the next day to continue training.

Chang Xi agreed to some extent, "I feel, according to what my brother usually says about him, maybe it really will be a direct confrontation."

If Qin Liang heard Chang Xi’s words, his jaw would surely drop in astonishment.

Luo Qianqian lay there unwilling to speak. Her biological clock ticked on, and after the fatigue of the day, she was very reluctant to get up. But she had received word that she must go.

"By the way, I heard there are wolves on that mountain," Fang Rou said with a hint of mystery.

"Stop it," Chang Xi said, looking at Luo Qianqian who was dozing off, pity washing over her. She was so young yet insisted on being tough, unwilling to give in or retreat. However, it was this perseverance that had won Zhang Jin’s appreciation, and Luo Qianqian had not lacked for one-on-one training. As ’Ye Meng’s’ sister, she naturally felt reassured, without a hint of jealousy. She was here to lose weight, while this child was here because she wanted to be.

Fang Rou pouted her lips and said no more, but her eyes held deep meaning as she looked at Luo Qianqian.

Luo Qianqian was dreaming about her brother when she was jolted awake by the assembly call. She grabbed her things and dashed towards the door, her movements smooth and fluid. Chang Xi, who had been sitting still, was stunned by this reaction speed. She was just rubbing her eyes and Luo Qianqian was already at the doorway?

"Let’s go, Sister Xi," Luo Qianqian called Chang Xi as she opened the door and looked back.

From the call to assembly, it was no more than five minutes. Informing the two in advance was to ensure they’d have enough time to pack without delay. Seeing that they were among the first to arrive, neatly packed, Zhang Jin nodded in approval.

A ten-kilometer cross-country run at night, with weight. Luo Qianqian didn’t put on airs, wearing her heavy coat and languidly following behind the team. She knew her physical stamina was bound to fall behind, so she might as well start slow and conserve her energy. Chang Xi fell behind from the beginning; managing to run half the distance was already a significant improvement.

Wei Guang disguised himself and followed at the back, watching two chubby figures trudge along, he couldn’t help but sigh. What were they doing exercising in the middle of the night instead of sleeping peacefully to grow fat and happy? Qin Liang was really a piece of work.

Qin Liang, who was crafting a plan in the office, suddenly sneezed, rubbed his nose, and plunged back into his work.

"Hand over the flag," the second squad leader suddenly emerged from ahead. The first squad leader hesitated for a moment, then grinned wryly, "The Boss really wouldn’t just do a simple drill, huh? Everyone’s here, scatter!"

Seeing everyone disperse ahead, Luo Qianqian was slightly startled and dived to the side, silently observing the situation.

"Is this guerrilla warfare in the jungle?" Zhang Jin’s eyes bulged as he saw the imposing Chang Xi getting spotted.

"This must be the Boss giving those two a heads-up, something like ’Don’t get cocky with any improvements you’ve made,’ right?" Wei Guang also noticed his very obvious sister, her plump figure prominent in the moonlight. He moved closer to Zhang Jin, "Where do you think the squad leader hid that thing?"

"Are you a spy sent by the second squad leader?" Zhang Jin rolled his eyes, "How would I know? Maybe the squad leader didn’t bring it at all."

Underneath the squad leader’s lunch box, a neatly folded blue flag lay silently.
