“Captain Lin didn’t...” Xu Yue and her fellow soldiers couldn’t resist arguing.
Lu Ye threw a sharp and piercing glance in return. He sneered, “If you didn’t see him grab Gu Yan’s wrist, then you won’t need to administer injections to patients in the future.”
Xu Yue and the rest of the female soldiers were at a loss for words.
These soldiers from the Medical Department couldn’t handle Lu Ye’s death stare. With their timidity, they took a few steps back.
If eyes could be used as actual knives, Lin Haoran’s wrist would have been hacked to pieces.
If this situation occurred outside the special training camp, the scene might be far from harmonious.
On the side, Guo Rou felt fortunate. Although the Demon King was so terrifying right now, at least his anger wasn’t directed at them.
Simultaneously, she gloated over the other party’s predicament. These soldiers from the Medical Department usually acted high and mighty. Although most of them were quite nice, some really thought they were angels after donning the white coats.
Just when the tension was about to burst, a clear voice interrupted, “Captain Lu, you’ve misunderstood Captain Lin. He didn’t harass me.”
Lu Ye turned around and saw Gu Yan smile, which resembled a blossoming flower.
He frowned, but he was not in a rush to speak.
As for the others, including Lin Haoran, they relaxed a bit deep inside.
Gu Yan explained, “Captain Lu, we mentioned the matter in the afternoon as a friendly reminder. But clearly, they couldn’t be bothered to remember it. Not only that, Captain Lin especially came over to educate us about valuing unity and foregoing grudges.”
Then, Gu Yan spread her hands. “We did keep the spirit of unity in mind. That’s why we gave a friendly reminder to our comrades in the Medical Department that people should be honest. More importantly, we soldiers should possess a genuine heart. If you break your promise, then you lack integrity.”
‘Who didn’t know how to accomplish great tasks with minimal effort?’
They felt entitled to call other people the ‘bottom of the bunch’, but they didn’t have the guts to admit defeat when they lost. Much worse, they even blamed her?!
Only a handful of people were familiar with the situation. However, after hearing the exchange, several discussions started.
“What happened in the afternoon?”
Of course, soon, there were ‘enthusiastic’ soldiers from the Logistics Department who recounted the events.
Quickly, the word had spread across the hall. Hence, numerous people were up to date regarding the afternoon incident.
Now, the crowd directed an odd look towards the soldiers under the Medical Department.
It seemed they planned to humiliate the other party, but it backfired on them instead. And yet, how come they were shameless enough to refuse to admit defeat?!
The faces of the soldiers in the Medical Department became flushed. Some couldn’t even eat anymore. They immediately fled the scene after putting their trays back.
Lin Haoran fell silent for a while and looked up. His face still appeared warm like usual. “Mhm, it was their mistake today. I will remind them not to say words such as ‘bottom of the pack’.”
Gu Yan looked down. Lin Haoran really knew when to retreat. A person like him would always appear faultless on the surface, but they always plotted things covertly.
He was a tricky scumbag.
Lu Ye nodded after hearing the words.
Captain Lu wasn’t even fully satisfied. He wanted to personally teach him a lesson.
This matter came to an end. Even though the Medical Department didn’t fulfill their part of the deal, the Logistics Department still felt great.
With the departure of Lin Haoran, the dining hall calmed down again. Lu Ye looked seriously at Gu Yan. “Comrade Gu Yan, come out with me.”
Gu Yan’s mouth twitched. ‘Why did it seem like she was in trouble now?’
She nodded and put away her tray before following Lu Ye.
By the entrance, Gu Yan noticed that Shen Nana hadn’t left yet. She looked at her with a complicated expression.
Gu Yan smirked and took a deep look at her before catching up with Lu Ye.
But... Lu Ye was in a rush to leave.
