Chapter 108: 107 Chapter 108: 107 It wasn’t just Xia Zeyang, in fact, Jing Youlan and the others were also constantly watching Mu Lin.
In a short while, all of them rushed to Mu Lin’s side, instantly shoving Ye Xiwen, who was originally running alongside Mu Lin, to the sideline.
Ye Xiwen was a bit aggrieved. However, she truly realized that Mu Lin was really…quite popular. The people surrounding her now were the ones who were usually aloof and unapproachable, but they were all bustling around her now with concern.
Strangely enough, Ye Xiwen’s young girl’s heart was bursting with jealousy.
“You guys really don’t have to run with me.” There was a set time for the three-kilometer run, which would ultimately be factored into their new recruit training scores, and she didn’t want to be the one dragging them down.
“We share in both good times and hard times.” Jing Youlan said, jesting.
“But don’t you guys feel that crowding around me like this is a bit too high-profile?” Hasn’t she noticed that the eyes of some other soldiers have started to stick on them?
“I thought you liked being high-profile.” Ji Shubai rarely joked.
Mu Lin raised an eyebrow, “Actually, I prefer keeping a low profile.” She knew Ji Shubai was referring to what happened yesterday and…the situation during the last auction, but, she really couldn’t be blamed for that, she was forced to be high-profile because of the circumstances.
Really, Mu Lin never liked to be high-profile, it’s just that sometimes when she was, it wasn’t her.
The people beside her scoffed.
…
“Alright, don’t tempt me to chat. Don’t you know talking consumes energy.” Mu Lin was panting from running, “you guys can just run at your usual pace and wait for me at the finish line.” She is a military doctor, and already has a secured position, so her score here really didn’t matter to her, even if she finished last, it wouldn’t matter; besides, she was a practitioner of martial arts, she was just in the adaptation period now, she just needed a few more days to get accustomed.
But the situation was different for Jing Youlan and the others, their performance was directly linked to their families; the most important thing was!
Mu Lin looked at Jing Youlan, “You’re already far behind your mortal enemy Xue Jianbing.” Losing was quite embarrassing.
Upon hearing Mu Lin’s words, Jing Youlan and the others subconsciously looked over.
Indeed, it seemed they had been left far behind, they should still have time to catch up.
Ji Shubai looked at Jing Youlan, “Why don’t you go ahead, we’ll stay with Mu Lin.”
Unfortunately, Jing Youlan still shrugged indifferently, “If he wants to win, let him win. Even a pet needs a sweet date to get excited sometimes.” Winning or losing didn’t matter to him, as brotherhood was more important.
However, whether that certain pet would willingly eat that “sweet date” was another question, especially if he knew about Jing Youlan’s thoughts at this moment.
I don’t know whether he sensed Jing Youlan’s “affectionate” gaze or felt that he was badmouthing him, but the man who was referred to as a pet turned his head to glance in Mu Lin’s direction, scoffed, and turned away. The bruise on his face shone strangely under the sun…
As for Jing Youlan’s face, which was almost completely healed in just a day, and expressed his minor grievance, he could guess the probable reason.
It’s just a pity, he knew very well: Mu Lin doesn’t like him; this time, he did not shamelessly ask for her attention.
A minor injury, after all, isn’t Mu Lin the only doctor in this huge military area?
A certain ‘pet’ was already “tired of love”.
