Chapter 85: She hurts, I also hurt; Qin Hanyue appeared in the military Area
Chapter 85
"Then why did she say Li Shiyin wanted to trip her up?" Tang Xiaoguo retorted immediately.
"Jealousy, obviously. Anyone with eyes can see it clearly."
The male students echoed in agreement.
"You..."
With her scheme exposed, Tang Xiaoguo was both angry and unable to refute.
"Ins...Instructor Hou, I just saw, they took the initiative to get close to student Qiao." The pimple-faced male student who sat next to Qiao Ying on the bus plucked up the courage to speak up.
After speaking, he quickly glanced at Qiao Ying, his face flushed red again.
"Don\'t talk nonsense. You guys are clearly helping her because she\'s pretty..." Tang Xiaoguo was unwilling to admit it, but was secretly extremely anxious.
"All of you shut up and keep running. Don\'t you guys want breakfast anymore?" Instructor Hou\'s sentence caused the students to disperse like birds and beasts.
Instructor Hou could see through these little girls\' tricks.
He squatted down to piggyback the severely injured Li Shiyin and then looked at Qiao Ying before heading to the infirmary with the girl on his back.
The instructor had not come back for a long time.
The students had almost puked from running, but none of them dared to stop. Seeing the next class taking a break, they dared to take a rest under the trees.
One by one, they collapsed on the ground, hot and hungry.
Only Qiao Ying sat alone playing on her phone as if nothing had happened, looking exceptionally refreshed and relaxed compared to their sweat-drenched states.
Everyone eyed her enviously.
They envied her for having a phone to play with and for her freakishly good physical fitness.
Finally, the instructor came back and everyone gathered immediately.
"Attention, at ease, turn left. Destination, canteen, 1,500 meters away. Move out!"
It was ten o\'clock and they could finally eat breakfast. The students almost cried since the class next door had finished eating and only their class was left.
The starving students charged towards the canteen with eyes red.
Qiao Ying lagged behind the team, walking unhurriedly.
A person suddenly appeared beside her and she heard Instructor Hou\'s sonorous voice: "You kicked quite fiercely back there. You almost broke her leg."
"Hasn\'t Instructor Hou learned physics? The effect of force is mutual. She\'s hurt, I\'m hurt too." What Qiao Ying wanted to say was: She had already reduced most of her strength. Otherwise, Li Shiyin\'s leg bone would have snapped.
"Sharp tongue. I hope you can maintain such composure in a few days." Instructor Hou said.
Qiao Ying: "I hope so for Instructor Hou too."
Instructor Hou: "..."
To call her a troublemaker was right indeed.
After a day, the students\' initial anticipation and excitement had completely cooled down. Supporting each other with their folded beddings, they dragged their exhausted bodies back to the dormitory and collapsed onto their beds. They didn\'t even want to shower, completely unwilling to move a muscle, and even envied the injured Li Shiyin for not having to take part in military training.
In the instructors\' dormitory, Instructor Hou had his shirt off, exposing his muscular torso.
His comrade was applying medicinal wine to his left shoulder.
"Why don\'t you go see Dr. Ming again? You can hardly hold a gun now with that arm. If this continues, even eating will become a problem in the future. If it\'s money you lack, the brothers and I can chip in to help."
Instructor Hou shook his head. He had long lost hope and looked to be taking things optimistically, saying, "My left hand can still shoot pretty accurately now."
Seeing his reaction, his comrade could only change the topic: "Was it that troublemaker from your class who kicked and almost broke her classmate\'s leg this afternoon? I saw you in the..."
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
After Instructor Hou got dressed, he let the person in.
Seeing that it was the sentry bringing a female student, Tang Xiaoguo, whom he recognized.
Instructor Hou knew something must have happened again.
Indeed, when he asked, that was the case.
"Instructor Hou, Qiao Ying is missing."
His comrade laughed. "That troublemaker again?"
Instructor Hou frowned, rage welling up: "Didn\'t I say not to leave the dormitory building? Are you guys treating my words as farts?" This was the military base, not their backyard to run around recklessly.
Instructor Hou got up and walked out.
Tang Xiaoguo hurriedly followed, feet stepping lightly. She thought gleefully that Qiao Ying would have no way of quibbling her way out this time.
When Instructor Hou arrived at the dorm, the girl was indeed not there.
A few girls began riling things up. Despite her numb and painful leg, Li Shiyin\'s mouth did not forget to wag.
Just as things were getting intense and Instructor Hou was about to look for Qiao Ying, Li Shiyin suddenly shrieked at the door, scaring many people.
A cold female voice followed lightly: "You guys are talking about me?"
Everyone looked back.
They saw Qiao Ying standing at the door somehow unnoticed, like a ghost. She had her arms crossed lazily against the doorframe looking at them.
"Where did you go?" Instructor Hou asked heavily
"The toilet. Need a report?" Qiao Ying retorted.
"You\'re lying. You didn\'t go to the toilet at all. The toilet is on the left but you clearly went downstairs on the right just now. Also, who takes that long in the toilet?" Li Shiyin swore to expose Qiao Ying: "Your lies totally suck."
Instructor Hou asked again: "I\'m asking you one more time, where did you go?"
Qiao Ying: "The toilet."
Alright, she did sneak out. Out of boredom, she had wandered all over the military base and even took a stroll around the office of their highest-ranking commander. But she really didn\'t do anything else. She was a law-abiding citizen.
Instructor Hou stared at Qiao Ying for a few seconds without saying anything more, only reminding them again not to leave the dorm building.
As he walked past Qiao Ying, he lowered his voice: "Behave yourself. This is not a place for you to fool around."
Qiao Ying did not react much. She only lightly turned her gaze to Li Shiyin\'s group, and while her eyes held no emotion, it made Li Shiyin and company feel a ghastly chill and pressure.
Once downstairs, Instructor Hou asked the sentry: "Did any female students come back just now?"
The sentry said: "No."
Instructor Hou looked up towards the third floor.
Two days later,
A large truck full of new thermal weapons drove into the military base.
In front was a black Maybach with the license plate [京A0000].
Upon seeing the visitor, the base commander Major General Shangguan Qingmu was even happier than when seeing his own eighty-year-old dad. He personally came out to welcome them and brought the guest into his office, serving good tea.
Personally handing a cup of hot tea, Shangguan Qingmu confirmed again: "Master Qin, all this just for free?"
"With greater power comes greater responsibility. As a Hua Country citizen, contributing within my capacity for the country is only right." Qin Hanyue sat leisurely on the sofa, legs crossed.
Shangguan Qingmu happily slapped his thigh.
"Good man! I\'ll definitely have a banner personally delivered to your residence later as thanks. It will read: Warm-hearted Citizen Qin, Hanyue, Moving Hua Country\'s Top Ten Sweethearts."
"Reporting Major General, counting complete. 95 assault rifles, ten boxes, Barrett sniper rifles, five boxes..."
Listening to the soldier\'s report, Shangguan Qingmu grinned from ear to ear. Half a pot of tea later, he enthusiastically invited Qin Hanyue to the canteen.
Qin Hanyue: "No need to entertain me. Carry on with your matters."
Shangguan Qingmu: "Really nothing else?"
It was rather suspicious that he had personally come sending so many valuable goods without the slightest sign. It left Shangguan Qingmu feeling rather uneasy.
"I just drove by and saw many students. Are those Capital University\'s freshmen in military training?" Qin Hanyue suddenly asked.
"Yes! Shall I bring you to take a look? To feel the vigor of the youths." Shangguan Qingmu said.
