Luo Ye’s lips curled into a bitter smile. Hadn’t she anticipated this possibility already? What more was there to pursue? She patted Xing Nong: "Qiu’er, why are you staring at her? Just focus on doing well yourself, that’s what matters." "Don’t you know it’s said ’When a girl chases a boy, it’s as if separated only by a layer of gauze’?" Xing Nong poked Luo Ye: "Come on, give me a straight answer. What exactly is your deal with Boss Ye? I don’t want to be meddling blindly and end up being a laughingstock." "Luo Ye..." Zhan Hao came over at the right time. "Hm?" Luo Ye looked at him with a questioning gaze. "Perform well!" Zhan Hao’s eyes were filled with concern. "Don’t worry, I will." Luo Ye gave him a reassuring look. She knew that Zhan Hao was aware of her discord with Feng Tianzhi, and figured he was worried she would let her emotions get the better of her. With a face full of gloominess, Wu Zetian squeezed over: "Luoluo, it wasn’t easy to finally be teamed up with you, and I even dragged you down before without a chance to make it up to you. Now we’re direct opponents, I’m really not feeling good about it." Luo Ye smiled: "Listen to you, as if it matters. When the exercise is over, won’t we be comrades and classmates again?" "That’s true, haha..." Wu Zetian chuckled: "Luoluo, don’t worry. If we meet in a narrow path, I will definitely make way for you." Zhan Hao slapped him on the back: "Cut it out. You have to be loyal to your own side, that’s the rule of the exercise. Are you thinking of being a traitor?" Puffing up his chest, Wu Zetian declared: "Even if I become a traitor, I would only be a traitor for Luoluo alone!" Xing Nong smacked his lips: "Male Emperor, at this moment, I feel like you’re surrounded by a dazzling halo, truly the epitome of manliness!" "That’s for sure!" Wu Zetian flicked his head with pride: "Don’t you think I’m even more manly than Zhan Hao?" Xing Nong spread his hands: "I did get that feeling just now, but... back to square one." "Everyone, hurry up and get back to your platoons!" Instructor Yue’s voice sounded. "I’m here with her, you all can rest assured." Liu Xing, who hadn’t spoken up until then, reached out his hand: "Our six-person team, no one gets left behind!" "Never fall behind!" Zhan Hao’s hand was the next to join. Six hands of different sizes and skin tones were stacked on top of each other, signifying the determination of the six to support each other all the way! "All present, board the vehicles!" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ noⅴelfire.net Before boarding, Luo Ye glanced at Ye Xuan, who was still busy with handover tasks. The so-called handover was Mo Datong providing detailed introductions on the actual situations of past students, which took quite a while. Feeling someone’s gaze on her, she turned her head and met Feng Tianzhi’s eyes, filled with laughter. She couldn’t help feeling stifled and swiftly entered the bus. Li Xiaobei sat beside Luo Ye: "Luo Ye, I really envy the deep bond you guys have. I didn’t dare to join you guys, afraid I would disturb you." "Yeah, I’m so envious and jealous," agreed Liang Xiaorao with a nod. Luo Ye just smiled at the two of them, saying nothing. Yan Han hesitated for a moment, then said loudly, "From now on, the eight of us are a whole, representing the image of GF University and the image of student soldiers. So, we must unite and not let the veterans look down on us." "Yan Han, we haven’t even chosen a class leader yet and you’re already singing a high tune?" "Liang Xiaorao, isn’t what I said true? Do you plan to let the veterans see us as a bunch of loose sand?" Yan Han looked clearly displeased. "Let me share my thoughts..." Ji Sisi took over the conversation: "I think Yan Han is right. When we arrive at the military base, we represent not just our own image, but also, we absolutely cannot lose to the recruits joining the Red Army..." "Luo Ye, come down for a moment." Instructor Yue called from outside. "Excuse me, please continue." Luo Ye waved at the others and jumped out of the vehicle. Instructor Yue pointed toward Ye Xuan in the distance: "Luo Ye, go over there." "Thank you, Instructor Yue." Luo Ye saluted and quickly ran towards the spot where Ye Xuan was standing. "Brother Ye," Luo Ye greeted and then, noticing Ye Xuan staring straight at her, she coughed uncomfortably, "Um, what’s up?" Ye Xuan’s expression was serious: "Ye’er, you’ve been assigned to Feng Tianzhi’s team, so you should perform well, for the sake of your goal as well." Luo Ye felt a burst of irritation. So calling her over was just because he didn’t trust her? Her face then turned a shade paler: "I will." "Not happy about it?" Ye Xuan’s lips curled up into a smile. "No!" Luo Ye turned her head away. "Clearly unhappy yet still pretending, silly girl!" Ye Xuan chuckled. "Don’t overthink the fact that you’ve been assigned to the Blue Army." Luo Ye raised an eyebrow and looked at him: "There must be a reason, right? Otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense to draw lots without announcing what numbers 1 and 2 represent." "Stop guessing. When the drill is over, I’ll tell you about it." Ye Xuan cleared his throat awkwardly: "I have to take my team back now; you should hurry back to the vehicle too." Luo Ye looked dissatisfied: "Why did you call me over? Do you think I’m a three-year-old who would throw a tantrum if placed under an auntie I don’t like? Why not just give me some candy to appease me?" "Here." Ye Xuan actually took out a few pieces of chocolate from his pocket and handed them to Luo Ye. "I don’t want it!" Luo Ye, annoyed, turned and walked back to the vehicle, thinking how detestable this person was, damn Miao! Such a wooden person! Ye Xuan wore a bitter smile. How did he manage to make the youngster angry? Actually... he really just wanted to see her and talk to her, which is why he called her over. And about the chocolate, he brought it specifically intending to give it to her secretly, but how... how did things end up ? "Ye, I still have a chance, haha..." Feng Tianzhi, who had just completed the handover, made a point of coming over to greet Ye Xuan and then turned away triumphantly. Ye Xuan’s eyes narrowed dangerously: "Feng Tianzhi, I’d advise you to watch yourself!" "Feng Tianzhi..." Feng Tianzhi turned back around: "Fair competition is my right, you have no power to interfere." "I have no power to interfere..." Ye Xuan’s lips formed a perfect arc: "But I believe she will not be interested in a madman like you!" "That’s not necessarily true. I understand the heart of a young girl better than you do." Feng Tianzhi waved his hand with a smug look: "Your performance just now, that was really something, really something, hahaha..." Ye Xuan clenched his fists and turned to walk towards the Red Army, a deep worry in his eyes, constantly comforting himself that she was different from other girls, she was different from other girls... Feng Tianzhi stopped in front of the vehicle, looked back at Ye Xuan’s figure with a complex expression, "When both are excellent, who can dismiss the other?" He blinked, and his signature smile returned to his lips. Nu’an updated in the morning in a rush but still late, and still didn’t reach three thousand words, covering my face... (To be continued...
