After being apart for a year, he was now so close to her. Even though he was acting so cold, Ye Qiao had the urge to just run toward him and hug him in front of thousands of people.
"Everyone in the front row, lift your arms toward your left and right. Those in the back row, lift your arms forward to keep a fair distance from the people around you. Let's start the training with military postures to get your patience tested!" Instructor Peng said as he whistled.
Instructor Lu, who was standing still with a stern face, finally moved.
Ye Qiao's heart was racing as she watched him drawing closer and closer; his scent was getting stronger as he drew nearer. To her, it felt as though her heart was reaching her throat. She just could not keep her eyes off him.
Meanwhile, Lu Beixiao looked so cool and calm on the outside, which was completely different from her internal feelings.
Soon, his muscular body was right beside her and he bent down a little. His lips almost touched her cheek as he whispered, "Silly girl, do you miss me?" A magnetic voice was lingering around her ear.
This man's odor felt hotter and stronger than the sun!
Ye Qiao's heart was racing.
She had imagined the day he returned and how they would be reunited many times. However, none of her daydreams were comparable to the situation at hand.
He was now an instructor, and she was his trainee! Such a boring way to be reunited!
Swiftly, Instructor Lu straightened his body and stood upright. He was a cold and strict trainer; hence, none of the students from the back rows had the courage to look at him.
'Did brother Beixiao recognize Ye Qiao? What did he say to her?!' Although Ye Zhenzhen was standing at the most left corner, she saw them talking when she stretched out her neck to check.
"You may rest in the tent if you're not feeling well!" Instructor Lu said to Ye Qiao with a serious but gentle tone as he turned back after taking a few steps forward.
Ye Qiao was initially stunned. But soon, she got his message.
She immediately left the troop and walked toward the green tent located tens of meters away.
'Wow! Instructor Lu looks cold, but he is actually very caring!' All the female students secretly thought. However, only God knew that Ye Qiao was the only person entitled to that privilege!
Every single student was standing straight with their heads high up under the sun.
Five minutes later...
"Report! I'm feeling dizzy!" Ye Zhenzhen was the one reporting with her eyes locked on Lu Beixiao. Did brother Beixiao not recognize her anymore?
As soon as Ye Zhenzhen finished reporting, she ran toward Lu Beixiao right away, and everyone was shocked by her action! She was so daring!
"Brother Beixiao, I'm a Zhenzhen!"
Maintaining his cold and stern appearance, Instructor Lu whistled. "Run around the field for two rounds for neglecting the rules and discipline!"
Wow! Instructor Lu was such a selfless person!
All the female students secretly applauded and even admired him more now! They were happy that Ye Zhenzhen failed to stand out this time!
They were against her because she could not stop boasting about her family since last night, and that irritated all the girls.
She deserved it! Who knows if she really knew Instructor Lu! Furthermore, she neglected the rules by addressing him as 'Brother Beixiao'. How annoying!
Ye Zhenzhen was shocked and gazed at the cold-looking Lu Beixiao for a moment.
Again, he whistled.
The sound from the whistle was very sharp and caused Ye Zhenzhen to turn around and run as she was frightened.
Meanwhile, Lu Beixiao headed to the tent.
To the rest of the girls, Instructor Lu was just being caring and paying a visit to the girl who got a heatstroke.
Inside the tent, there was a table, a chair, a water dispenser, a disposable cup, a fan on the table, a pot of cold water, a towel, and a few big gallons of distilled water.
Ye Qiao's heart went racing as she heard someone walking closer and closer to the tent.
