43: 013 The New Recruit’s Slightly Abnormal Life 7

“Yes!” Zhang Jingyue immediately stood up and performed a military salute.

She felt somewhat unsteady, unsure whether Quan Shaoqing still remembered her.

Zhang Jingyue trotted over and saluted everyone.

Gao Xiong sized up Zhang Jingyue and encouraged her, “Work hard, everybody is rooting for you.”

“Yes!” Zhang Jingyue responded loudly, with a strong and resonant voice.

Her clear and beautiful voice made the men feel as if their ears had turned to jelly.

Young Master Quan looked at her, finding her familiar.

It was as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn’t recall at the moment.

Upon hearing from Zhang Jingyue that she came from a military family, was a postgraduate with dual degrees, and her grandfather was a high-ranking official, Gao Xiong’s tone became much more polite, “Perform well!

Off you go!

Our military needs talent like yours.

You’ll definitely be entrusted with important tasks in the future.”

“Yes!” Zhang Jingyue’s gaze swept toward Young Master Quan, noticing that he was also looking at her.

She suddenly lowered her head, her ears turning slightly red.

Lin Mi touched his nose, his glance shifting back and forth between the two, having understood the situation.

Zhang Jingyue had been completely charmed by Young Master Quan’s magnetism.

Dark eyes of Young Master Quan roved over to the training field, searching for Gu Xiaoxi, when suddenly his gaze landed near the parallel bars.

There sat Gu Xiaoxi, cross-legged on the grass, casually chewing gum.

She was definitely chewing gum sneakily, taking a few chews whenever the instructor turned away.

Whenever the instructor wasn’t looking, she continued to act cool and detached on her own.

Young Master Quan scowled; this girl was treating the new recruit training as a joke.

He had heard it from Lin Mi before but hadn’t believed it; now, seeing it with his own eyes was hardly bearable.

There she was, chewing gum on the training field.

Just ten seconds after Young Master Quan’s gaze had shifted toward her, Gu Xiaoxi, feeling alert, turned around.

Through a row of verdant fir trees outside the training field, her eyes met directly with Quan Shaoqing’s.

The next second, Gu Xiaoxi scrambled to her feet and ran towards Yuan Shang, “Reporting!

I need to go to the restroom!”

Yuan Shang looked at Gu Xiaoxi, “Didn’t you just go?”

Gu Xiaoxi chuckled, “I ate too much this morning!”

Speechless, Yuan Shang said, “Go then!”

He pointed towards a group nearby and instructed Gu Xiaoxi, “Leaders are inspecting up there, make it quick.”

Gu Xiaoxi saluted, flashed a brilliant smile, and then ran off like a breeze.

She was clearly going for a pee break.

Watching Gu Xiaoxi head towards the restroom, Young Master Quan and Lin Mi exchanged glances, the former’s eye twitching.

Was this girl deliberately avoiding him?

Gu Xiaoxi dawdled in the bathroom for half an hour, watching from the restroom window as Young Master Quan and the others moved across the training field.

Only then did she whistle cheerfully, sauntering out of the hallway.

Little did she know, as soon as she exited the hallway, she ran smack into the group that had just crossed the training field.

Gu Xiaoxi felt utterly frustrated inside; unable to avoid them, she decided to pretend she didn’t recognize them.

She stood up straight, puffed out her chest, pulled in her stomach, and saluted, “Greetings, officer!”

Gao Xiong raised an eyebrow, and Hu Ba hurriedly explained, “This is our squad’s vanguard.

The one who just went to the restroom.

Gu Xiaoxi!”

Gao Xiong nodded.

He then asked Gu Xiaoxi, “Do you have any special skills?”

Gu Xiaoxi grinned innocently, “I run fast!”

“What else?” Gao Xiong inquired.

“Lots!

Which area are you referring to?” Gu Xiaoxi replied earnestly.

Gao Xiong took an interest and bombarded her with a plethora of questions.

The result was like an unabating tai chi.

His questions were effortlessly dodged by Gu Xiaoxi, resulting in her abilities becoming even more enigmatic.

“Put on a good show!” Gao Xiong said with an inscrutable smile.

Gu Xiaoxi saluted everyone and ran faster than a rabbit.

She didn’t glance at Quan Shaoqing from beginning to end.

Lin Mi looked at Quan Shaoqing’s grim expression, her heart drumming with anxiety, not understanding what he was feeling.

The one who should be looking at him didn’t give him a single look.

The one who shouldn’t be kept stealing glances at him.

Hu Ba led the leaders to the restroom.

After coming out of the restroom, Quan Shaoqing and Lin Mi summoned Hu Ba, “Now that I’m here, I want to test the strength of the new recruits.

Gather all the top new soldiers together; I want to see their limits.”

He wanted to review personally?

Gao Xiong immediately agreed with Quan Shaoqing’s suggestion and, under Lin Mi’s cue, entrusted the matter to Quan Shaoqing.

Quan Shaoqing squinted his eyes, watching Gu Xiaoxi on the training ground.

This guy had made their relationship crystal clear.

Lin Mi was speechless, sweating for Gu Xiaoxi.

Pretend not to know him?

Gu Xiaoxi, you’re impressive!

At least glance at Quan Shaoqing to hint at your good relationship.

You should know, Quan Shaoqing came here especially for her.

Among the new recruits, numbering over five hundred, nearly thirty vanguards stood out after just over a week of training.

To Gu Xiaoxi’s surprise, among these vanguards, she also encountered Song Jingyi.

She might not have been the best, but she was one of those new recruits with strong physical abilities, so her class recommended her to make an appearance.

“Gu Xiaoxi, we meet again!” Song Jingyi stood beside Gu Xiaoxi with a grin, “The most beautiful new recruit!”

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at her, “Are you mocking me?” frёewebηovel.cѳm

“Well, if even a pig could become the most beautiful, who is playing this joke?” Song Jingyi teased.

Gu Xiaoxi snorted and stayed silent.

Seeing her cold face, Song Jingyi secretly handed her a few pieces of chewing gum.

“Here, don’t be so stingy.

We could still be friends in the future!”

Gu Xiaoxi flipped the chewing gum and tossed it into her mouth.

Right now, Hu Ba was gathering people, so no one was paying attention to them.

“Hey, I heard the highest-ranking leader who came today is a major general!

But why do I think that the man next to him, without any rank insignia, is even more handsome?” Song Jingyi recalled carefully.

Gu Xiaoxi chewed on her gum, looking disdainful, “Handsome?

I don’t think so!”

The mere thought of that face made her itch to smack it, to surpass him, to torment him a hundred times a day.

“Something about what you said doesn’t sit right with me!” Song Jingyi chuckled covertly.

“I remember, during that arrest, someone twisted their ankle, yet was begging to be held!”

Gu Xiaoxi’s face darkened, not speaking anymore; Song Jingyi was referring to the time they caught Mu Yong.

“Dare to blab to others, and see how I’ll deal with you!” Gu Xiaoxi said coldly, calmly continuing to chew her gum.

She wanted to surpass Quan Shaoqing on her own strength and naturally did not want to expose their relationship.

Otherwise, all her efforts would be overshadowed by Quan Shaoqing’s influence.

Song Jingyi giggled, “Good luck!

He looks like trouble is coming!”

Following Song Jingyi’s gaze, Quan Shaoqing and Lin Mi were walking out of the office building.

With a severe expression and a cold attitude, Quan Shaoqing approached the new recruits.

Thirty people stood in front of him, each brimming with energy and vigor.

His eyes briefly passed over Gu Xiaoxi, his voice resounding, “At ease, everyone!

I’ve heard you’re the sharpest among the new recruits, so today, show me your real skills.

Prove that you can, that you’re worthy of wearing this military uniform.”
