Chapter Four

Song Xingchen felt a gentle warmth by her ear, and only then did she realize that the distance between the two had closed to the point of breath. Slightly taken aback, she quickly took a step back and smiled at Su Qingche. "Then I shall thank the captain in advance." With that, she turned and strode away.

Song Xingchen's expression changed slightly, "So?"

Su Qingche stood with her hands behind her back on the steps, and upon seeing Song Xingchen approach a few steps, she cast a sidelong glance at her and shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone is present, stand at attention."

This is not the usual style of the leader, to be so contentious with a young girl

Song Xingchen couldn't help but take another glance. Although this glance revealed Su Qingche's chaotic reactions following the command, it made her want to laugh.

Although Su Qingche stated that strict punishment would be enforced without delay, there were still no significant actions taken; the only consequence was to run a lap around the playground and then return to assemble

Song Xingchen had just run a short distance, but his voice still carried clearly over. She paused, turned back fiercely to glance at Su Qingche standing over there, and gave him the middle finger

Song Xingchen turned around leisurely and, upon seeing Su Qingche, felt no surprise whatsoever. She merely raised an eyebrow and cast him a calm glance.

Su Qingche glanced at the item she was holding, and couldn't help but curl the corner of his lips with interest. He then slightly leaned forward towards Song Xingchen, parted his thin lips, and softly said: "I'll prepare a little something special for you, but you can only keep..."

As soon as the words were spoken, the instructor's lips twitched, and he turned to the side to salute. "Commander!"

Song Xingchen was busy organizing her belongings and almost arrived late to the training session when she heard it was time to head to the playground

However, Su Qingche did not seem to care much; she merely furrowed her brows slightly and continued in a lowered voice: "Be quiet. Now I will explain the precautions for this military training."

Mother, why didn't you tell me that I came to Suqingche here

His hat brim was pulled down low, casting a shadow that faintly obscured his deep-set eyes. He stood a short distance in front of her with his hands clasped behind his back, the bright sunlight streaming in from behind him, making his tall figure appear even more upright and dashing.

She remembers that the address she wrote for her delivery is this place, so there is a fifty percent chance of encountering him

Su Qingche happened to walk right in front of her and found her frowning expression rather amusing. However, he maintained a composed demeanor and said rather coldly: "I am fully authorized to handle matters related to military training, so just report to me."

She cast a cold glance at Su Qingche, who was standing under the shade of the tree not far away, and ground her teeth fiercely

At her pace, which is just a bit faster than walking, she cannot complete two laps in five minutes. She usually does not exercise and particularly dislikes running, so she knows herself very well. Completing one lap in three minutes might even be quite challenging, let alone two laps in five minutes.

Su Qingche watched her leave in a hurry, then straightened up and stroked his chin, smiling with a wicked and thoroughly scheming expression. "It's still too early to express gratitude... Song Xingchen."

With just a gentle call from Su Qingche, the entire venue fell silent, not a sound to be heard.

Song Xingchen followed his gaze to the computer bag in his hand and the bulging handbag, "Is it this strict this year"

At that moment, she lifted her chin and looked at him provocatively, saying, "I do not agree to hand over the computer"

Song Xingchen carefully read through it once and, not finding Su Qingche, finally breathed a sigh of relief

This is not the first time Song Xingchen has seen Su Qingche in military uniform, but this time he is wearing a training outfit

He seemed to finally be somewhat satisfied, his slightly cold gaze surveying the room. Although he said nothing, the mere presence of his gaze, which could not be described as particularly severe or icy, caused everyone below to become entirely serious.

Next, we will count the number of people, and then the instructor will come to take over the class and lead us to the dormitory to drop off our luggage. Just before reaching the dormitory, the instructor paused for a moment, glanced at the large bag in Song Xingchen's hand, and said: "Instructor, you will also participate in military training; these are probably not needed."

The instructor nodded slightly, seemingly feeling a bit uncomfortable under Song Xingchen's direct and fiery gaze, and blushed slightly. "The commander has stated that the military training will be fully closed and treated equally."

Just as the instructor was about to speak, Song Xingchen interjected, "It's just military training, and it's aimed at the freshmen. Isn't it a bit excessive for your commander to arrange it this way? The instructors we have here have families to take care of, and they occasionally need to use computers to assist students with their assignments. Please convey my disagreement on this matter."

Song Xingchen has always felt that her sixth sense is more reliable than her menstrual cycle, and indeed, it has once again proven to be true

Su Qingche obviously did not take her seriously, glancing at her before walking over casually. "Whether you agree or not, it is a matter of discipline; violating discipline will result in punishment"

Last year, when she was teaching, she also participated in military training, but it was not in this military camp. As an instructor, she was quite lenient, and as long as she did not violate any discipline, she could tease the soldiers.

Su Qingche pressed her lips together slightly, and her pair of deep-set eyes slowly narrowed. "Instructor Song."

His voice was not as calm and clear as usual, but rather carried a hint of thunderous power

As the only instructor present, Song Xingchen's face turned slightly red. In the end, she merely bit her lip, took off the loose camouflage uniform, revealing a tight-fitting camouflage tank top underneath, and ran a lap.

Still having a little temper

Is that so

Several other students were also found to be hiding mobile phones, but none had a pile as large as that of Song Xingchen at their feet

Upon hearing this statement from afar, Song Xingchen glanced at the vast playground and immediately quickened his pace to run

Several officers have already disembarked from the leading military vehicle, and on the parade ground, 6 soldiers are lined up, casting sidelong glances in this direction

Song Xingchen suddenly felt her whole body stiffen, and she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, realizing that it was over; she had been caught speaking ill of someone behind their back

Indeed, it is too early to express gratitude

"Instructor, we have arrived." As her sleeve was tugged, Song Xingchen realized that the vehicle had stopped, and she needed to organize her classmates to disembark and line up

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Xingchen's eyelids twitched, and an ominous premonition arose within him

You are quite ruthless

Song Xingchen almost gritted her teeth and sneered, but she held it back and coldly stated word by word: "Captain, I have special reasons for applying not to submit the computer!"

The instructor noticed her pale complexion, stole a glance at her, and continued, "The team leader has stated that everything except for clothing must be submitted for safekeeping first"

However, she is merely contemplating; she has not forgotten the deep rift that has developed between the two of them

Su Qingche smiled faintly, the smile, though subtle, was quite dazzling. He lowered his gaze and glanced over at Song Xingchen, stating word by word: "We will now inspect the dormitory. Any items that have not yet been submitted will be dealt with severely."

Su Qingche smiled faintly, recalling the first time she met Song Xingchen when they parted on bad terms, and the arrogant middle finger she had raised while standing outside the door

When she saw the class monitor take a bag of skincare products and a mobile phone out of her room without a sideways glance, she no longer harbored any illusions that Su Qingche would show her any mercy

Song Xingchen could only see the instructor hesitating to speak, increasingly feeling that the regiment commander was bullying others with power. "Is there something wrong with your commander's brain structure, or is there a flaw in his character?"

Su Qingche did not even blink and commanded: "Gather here in three minutes, or run another lap!"

Song Xingchen's eyes blazed with anger, "I want to report this to your superior!"

Song Xingchen arrived at the military camp on the school bus. Before entering the gate from a distance, she looked at the houses surrounded by layers of mountains and was almost moved to tears.

There seemed to be a faint smile in his eyes as he looked into her wide-open eyes, speaking word by word: "One bag"

Seeing that the situation was not right, the instructor glanced back and forth at two individuals, confirming that his own regiment commander would not mistakenly crush this young instructor. Only then did he find an excuse to slip away.

to be identical

He pressed his lips together and said, "That one who raised his middle finger in defiance, let him run a lap. If he doesn't complete the task within five minutes, he will have to do a five-kilometer cross-country run with my soldiers"

Song Xingchen's face darkened completely as he glanced at the classmates who had already settled into their dormitory. "Who is your team leader?"

As Song Xingchen was about to turn around, the moment he heard that cold yet familiar voice, he was instantly petrified

Song Xingchen could not deny that Su Qingche looked truly handsome in that fitted military uniform, to the point that it made her want to bleed from the nose, especially those long and straight legs, which were finally encased in black military boots; the beautiful lines made her want to go up and touch them a few times

The instructor was about to speak when he caught sight of the person walking behind Song Xingchen, and he obediently closed his mouth.

Although Song Xingchen's figure cannot be considered extremely sultry, it can definitely be described as curvaceous, with a perfect body proportion that truly captivates the eye when revealed

As soon as the words were spoken, the instructors below exchanged glances with one another

He listed several things that cannot be done, and then spoke in an official manner about some formalities before announcing the tasks to be undertaken next. "The class leaders have already reminded the students and instructors just now that, apart from changing clothes, all other items must be submitted and will be returned after the military training concludes"
