It’s mandatory, unless she was willing to carry a load for twenty kilometers. Then, do five hundred push-ups.
Of course, she chose to write a testimonial.
If they weren’t all soldiers, Lu Xingzhi really wished they’d never find girlfriends.
Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Xingzhi instinctively got up from the ground quickly and replied, "Here!"
"Pfft!!" Li Chengqian was amused by her. With a smiling face, he said, "Sit, sit, sit, the military training is over, no need to react so strongly."
Lu Xingzhi then realized that she didn’t need to be so tense anymore.
"Instructor Li." She greeted, then sat back down with composure as if nothing had happened.
"Little Zhi Liao, that’s what they call you, right?" After she sat down, Li Chengqian also sat beside her. "Why don’t you go and say goodbye to your instructors?"
"No rush, let them speak first." Lu Xingzhi actually didn’t want to say anything.
But since he asked, she couldn’t say so directly.
Li Chengqian smiled like a fox, "The young lady performed well, have you considered joining the military academy? After all, your classes haven’t started yet."
Lu Xingzhi almost choked on her saliva upon hearing him.
"Thank you for your appreciation, but with my thin arms and legs, I’d rather not trouble the troops."
"With more practice, you’ll definitely build some strong muscles." Li Chengqian continued.
Lu Xingzhi stiffly tugged at her lips, "I really thank you!"
"So you don’t want to?"
"Instructor Li, are you a straight man? I don’t want to be muscular." Lu Xingzhi’s expression was hard to describe as she politely said, "I have a fiancé, and he wouldn’t agree with me joining the army."
Li Chengqian’s expression was as if Lu Xingzhi was engaging in superstitious nonsense, loudly criticizing, "What era is it now, why are you still listening to your fiancé? Where’s your family?"
"They’re all gone, only I’m left." Lu Xingzhi didn’t know how many times she had said this and could guess the usual reaction, "Don’t feel sorry, I’m just stating a fact."
"Then give me your fiancé’s contact, I’ll talk to him." Li Chengqian intended to apologize, but since Lu Xingzhi put it that way, he didn’t dwell on it.
"Instructor Li, have I not made my refusal clear enough?" Lu Xingzhi asked, her eyes clear and innocent.
"Give me his number, I’ll have him persuade you. Even joining as an art soldier would be great!" Li Chengqian was persistent.
Lu Xingzhi curled her lips, "You’re adorably persistent."
Li Chengqian was somewhat embarrassed, and to cover it up, he raised his voice, "Don’t think by saying a few nice words I’ll give up. Hurry, give me your fiancé’s number."
"Fine, I’ll give you the mobile number. But, isn’t there no signal here?"
"Use the landline, come with me." Li Chengqian said as he got up.
"Instructor Li, you can make a call. But, did you know I’m this year’s top scorer in the liberal arts in the college entrance exams? I managed to get into Jing University, do you think it’s appropriate to drag me into the army?" Lu Xingzhi felt very tired.
"Alright then!" Lu Xingzhi said no more.
As they walked, until standing in front of the landline, Li Chengqian handed the phone to Lu Xingzhi.
