Chapter 38: Military Training in Progress
TL: Etude
The m at seven o’clock, the military training at Lin Uy officially began. Bck double-decker buses filled with armed police officers and soldiers ehe uy campus.
At the same time, a rge number of freshmen surged from the dormitory area into the drill ground.
he formation of Finance Css 4, waves of discussions rippled through the crowd, peppered with excmations like “Wow,” “So beautiful,” “Like a fairy,” and “I’m stunned.” The atmosphere resembled that of a celebrity meet-and-greet, drawing onlookers from even the neighb areas.
Jiang Qin, tossing his hat, ran his fihrough his hair, menting how unbearably hot the weather was.
It was only m, and the hat already felt unbearable. He wondered how much hotter it would get ohe training started.
Meanwhile, Cao Guangyu, Zhou Chao, and Ren Ziqiang were approag from the dire of Css 4, their faces filled with astonishment.
“Old Jiang, I’ve realized I’ve been living in a bubble!”
Jiang Qin grinned, “How e you only realized it now?”
Cao Guangyu uzzled: “????”
Ren Ziqiang, bypassing Cao Guangyu, said, “Old Jiang, don’t ugh. Do you think Hong Yan and Chu Siqi are the epitome of beauty? I’m telling you, there’s an even more stunning girl in Css 4. Her aura is simply dazzling.”
Zhou Chao nodded vehemently in agreement: “It’s the first time I’ve seen such a perfect girl. She’s like a star, no, even more beautiful than a star. My whole worldview is shattered.”
Jiang Qin fanned himself with his hat, casually asking, “Is it really that exaggerated?”
“It’s not an exaggeration at all. You won’t believe it until you see her. You’ll feel like you’ve been living in a well too!”
“Yeah, Old Jiang, go have a look. It doesn’t cost anything to appreciate beauty!”
Jiang Qin calmly waved his hand: “Fet it. In this scorg weather, I’d sweat just walking a few steps. I’d rather save my energy for the training.”
Cao Guangyu felt a bit upset: “Damn, you’re the only oing high and mighty in our dorm!”
“There’s half a month of military training; there will be plenty of ces to see her. Maybe she’ll e looking for me ter.”
“What? If she es looking for you, I’ll eat shit on the spot.”
Jiang Qin couldn’t help but g Cao Guangyu: “If you want to eat shit, just say so. Don’t use me as an excuse!”
As the guys from Room 302 were chatting, a group of girls from Css 3 in Finance suddenly surged from behind: “What are you looking at? Even if you look, she’s not yours.”
Cao Guangyu turned around and sain but pretty face: “Pan Xiu, I didn’t provoke you.”
“I’m just stating a fact.”
Pan Xiu’s military uniform hung loosely on her, making her look rather u, even her usual ess faded.
Cao Guangyu retorted righteously: “Everyone appreciates beauty. What’s wrong with just looking?”
Pan Xiu couldn’t help but snort: “Aren’t the beauties in our css enough for you? You prefer those unattainable ones?”
Ren Ziqiang, the hopeless flirt, quickly chimed in: “Xiu Xiu, I only have eyes for you.”
Pan Xiu coldly responded: “Ren Ziqiang, we’ve only talked a couple of times. We’re not that close.”
“Oh, this…”
Cao Guangyu immediately shot him a disdainful look: “Hopeless flirt. ’t move when you see a girl, and what do you get? A cold shoulder!”
Ren Ziqiang looked mournfully at Pan Xiu, then at Cao Guangyu: “Fine, fine, I’ll shut up. I won’t talk anymore.”
While the guys were teasing each other, the irls of Css 3 in Finance were all Jiang Qin.
Standing at 1.8 meters, Jiang Qin’s height was notable, especially uhe bright sunlight, making him look particurly upright and imposing. Such a stature wasn’t rare at Lin Uy, but it was unon in Css 3. His roommates couldn’t pare to him, with only Zuo Boqiang from the dorm able to match him in arm-wrestling.
However, Zuo Boqiang couldn’t pete with Jiang Qin in terms of facial features and skin tone, making Jiang stand out even more.
At that moment, Jiang Qin was grumbling about the day’s heat, using a chilled mineral water bottle to cool his face while listlessly watg the supermarket across, seemingly indifferent to the surroundis.
Seeing this, the girls of Css 3 couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.
“Out of all the guys in Css 3, Jiang Qin is the best at posing!”
“Yeah, if it weren’t for the rumor that he’s beely in love with someone for three years, I would have been totally fooled by him!”
“Did he really chase someone for three years? It doesn’t seem like it.”
“It’s true. Ren Ziqiang himself told Pan Xiu about it, so it must be true.”
“Qingqing, weren’t you really upset yesterday on the pedestrian street? Why don’t you tease him a bit?”
Song Qingqing looked coldly at Jiang Qin’s back, recalling how she was ignored yesterday. Her makeup-adorned face was covered with a frosty expression.
She had thought Jiang Qin was a low-key but exceptional person. However, st night, Pan Xiu shared the story she heard from Ren Ziqiang about Jiang Qin’s three-year ued love for a high school cssmate, which was cruelly rejected. She told the story in the dormitory vividly.
After hearing this story, they realized that yesterday’s i on the pedestrian street was a misuanding. Jiang Qin was just anuy who liked to please pretty girls, just that he seemed more posed on the surface.
“I’ll tease him a bit, make him pay fn me yesterday.”
Song Qingqing shooiled expression, stepping forward, but before she could speak, a ce of “left, right, left” came from the entrance of the drill ground. A troop of soldiers ran in, their steps uniform and their voices loud and deep.
Seeing this, the casually lounging freshmen instantly stood up straight and even began to form ranks spontaneously. Song Qingqing had to abandon her pns aurn to her spot.
The first day of military training at Lin Uy was simple but tough – standing at attention uhe scorg sun for an hour to wear down the freshmen’s wildness and build their endurance. However, being the first day, there were many is – some fainted, others vomited. Each time something happened, Jiang Qin couldn’t help but gnce worriedly towards Css 4’s formation.
Fortunately, until the mid-training break, Css 4’s formation remained i-free.
“Old Jiang, want to go to the restroom? Let’s go together.”
After a short break, Zhou Chao tapped Jiang Qin, who was standing in front of him.
Jiang Qin turned and looked at him: “Didn’t you just go this m? It’s beehan two hours, and you o go again? Do you have a kidney problem?”
Zhou Chao’s breath hitched: “Don’t you o go?”
“I hold it for at least three hours.”
“Then I won’t go either.”
For some reason, Zhou Chao felt his spirit ignited upon hearing the word “kidney.” He gritted his teeth and suppressed the urge, sitting obediently on the drill ground.
Meanwhile, Song Qingqing, Jiang Tian, Pan Xiu, and a few irls gathered around Jiang Qin, surrounding him casually. The mix of perfume sts i weather was overwhelming for Jiang Qin.
“Jiang Qin, I heard you chased a girl in high school for three years and failed?”
