Chapter 310: Chapter 310 He Teng Enters Military School 3_1

When Feng Zheng heard He Zhilan was heading back with Gu En, his smile froze on his face. Yet, he still eagerly escorted He Zhilan to the dorm door before reluctantly waving goodbye to her.

As soon as Feng Zheng mentioned he was going to walk He Zhilan home, He Teng gave him a mysterious look. He didn’t take his eyes off him until Feng Zheng had seen He Zhilan back to her dorm, oblivious to He Teng’s scrutiny.

"He Teng, your sister is so cute!" Feng Zheng flopped down next to He Teng as soon as he got back to the dorm, nearly touching He Teng’s arm, as if they’d known each other for years. "And your sister is so pretty. I never expected that from you," he jabbered on, "You’re quite dark, yet your sister is so fair!"

"Am I dark?" He Teng asked in a stiff tone.

"Yeah, you are!" Feng Zheng confirmed, seemingly afraid He Teng wouldn’t believe him. He held up his hand next to He Teng’s, "See? You’re way darker than me."

"I’ve been a soldier for twelve years. What about you? Barely 120 days, right?" He Teng shot Feng Zheng a disdainful glance. "If you’d been a soldier as long as me, constantly exposed to sun and wind, I bet you’d be so dark we couldn’t see you even with the lights off."

Feng Zheng was left speechless by He Teng’s retort. As he rubbed his nose, he kept glancing at He Teng and wondered why he was different from what others described. The school leaders had given Feng Zheng this task, stating that Commander He was always silent and rarely spoke. However, Feng Zheng found He Teng quite talkative and somewhat sarcastic.

After feeling gloomy for a while, Feng Zheng shook off his thoughts and focused on what he had to ask. He hastily filled a cup of water for He Teng, giving it to him only after He Teng took it. "(Hey) He Teng," Feng Zheng began to ask, grinning all the while, "Can I ask you something? Does your sister have a boyfriend? If not, what do you think of me becoming your brother-in-law? I think I might be falling for your sister! He Teng, don’t underestimate me because I’m a soldier from a village. My family is not poor! You don’t need to worry that marrying your sister off to me will make her suffer. I’m the only son in our family. We have vast farmland and even run a distillery. It’s quite profitable. So, if you agree to let your sister marry me, I guarantee she will live a good life."

Upon hearing Feng Zheng’s words, a mouthful of water stuck in He Teng’s throat, neither going up nor down.

As He Teng didn’t respond, Feng Zheng thought he was considering his proposition. He started to further present his case. "My parents are so kind and loving. They really want a daughter, and your sister is so pretty. They would certainly adore her. I don’t have any sisters, so you don’t need to worry about any sisters-in-law bullying your sister. It seems your sister likes me too. She kept smiling at me. I can guarantee that she won’t hate me. As her brother, if you speak well of me in front of your sister and let me spend more time with her, I’m sure things will work out between us."

"All be damned! I want to change my roommate!" After a while, He Teng shouted, almost splashing the water in his hand on Feng Zheng’s flattering face.

He Teng knew it! He should have never let He Zhilan accompany him to what was basically an all-male military school! Within moments of showing up, his wife had caught someone’s eye! And this guy had the gall to express it to his face!
