Chapter 391: Domineering
She lifted her hand and clenched her fist.
“Live up to my conscience, for myself, for the people and for the uniform I am wearing!”
All the female soldiers shouted in unison with their powerful and roaring voice. Yes. This was the female troop’s slogan. In here, they were not normal women but female soldiers. They were expected to be able to fight and kill in the battlefield like a man.
An indistinguishable figure was walking toward them from a place not far away. Maybe the weather was gloomy, maybe everyone’s eyes were fogged up. All they could see was a man with a heavy accent approaching them as the blurry silhouette gradually turned into a clear portrait of a man.
That was a man in his thirties or maybe younger. His features were distinctive and mysterious like an European man, in the meantime, modest and exotic like an Asian man. He was neither a pretty boy nor a mature man. In fact, he was more vibrant than a young pretty boy, but also adorably awkward like a middle-aged man.
He’s so handsome.
He’s so robust and masculine.
These might be the first impressions the female soldiers had on this patriotic man.
The man approached them with his hands rested behind his back. Appearing smart, he walked with his head held high and chest stuck out. One could easily deduce that he had served in the army before. Only a man who had trained in the military base had a manly physique like this; only a man who had been a soldier acted as graceful as this; only a man who had defended their country would carry a menacing aura like this.
Yan Huan threw a glimpse at the man. Coincidentally, the man turned to look at her, causing them to lock eyes.
She turned around. She would have left the place if she was not bound by discipline.
“My name is Lu Yi.” The man scanned the present female soldiers and his gaze briefly paused on Yan Huan. However, he quickly shifted his gaze away from Yan Huan before any of the female soldiers noticed the affair between Yan Huan and him. To be honest, the word “affair” could not do justice to their relationship. It was barely suitable to describe their relationship as a “phenomenon”.
“From today onwards, I’ll be your new instructor,” his voice was not loud as he spoke. Yet, it sounded as though it could penetrate one’s heart and soul, deep, sharp, and painful.
All the female soldiers stuck their chests out. They were not wearing many layers. Underneath their camouflage uniform was merely a thin sweater. But, each of them stood straight and still in the wind and snow, not showing a hint of weakness.
The weather seemed to have cleared up, but was then followed by an extreme coldness.
Snow fell in Sea City. When it was snowy, the entire city could possibly be frozen up.
In the meantime, at a place not far away, the water was frozen under the gray light, appearing rigid with minimal gentleness.
“Who is Yan Huan? Come forward,” he was asking for a lady by the name of Yan Huan.
Yan Huan lowered her gaze as she continued to stand still.
“Who is Yan Huan? Come forward,” he repeated.
Finally, Yan Huan lifted her head. With her chin up, her expression was filled with stubbornness and willfulness.
“Yes, sir.”
“Step aside.”
Lu Yi kept his hands rested behind his back. His voice was so deep, to the extent that he seemed to not need any intonation in his sentences.
Yan Huan paused her action. She pursed her lips tight, blanching the colour of her lips. Coupled with her exceptionally fair complexion, she looked like a white steamed bun that was standing among the yellowish cornbreads.
Lu Yi turned around and his gaze landed on the rest of the female soldiers once again, “At my command, five kilometers of field training starts now!”
Upon his command, each and every one of the female soldiers promptly turned and began their training. Yan Huan, on the other hand, was left standing alone, as if she was but a pillar.
She seized the brief chance when no one was paying attention to her. She extended her leg and her kick landed directly on Lu Yi’s back. Lu Yi turned around to look at her. For a moment, his face, that had always been wearing an unmoved expression, was painted with helplessness and speechlessness.
Yan Huan gave herself a clap as she lifted her chin with immense stubbornness written all over her face.
Lu Yi turned around as he continued to stand on the same spot. One of his hands was rested on his waist with his fist clenched and his veins bulging and palpitating.
Yan Huan seemed to be abruptly reminded of something. She lowered her head and continued to tighten her fists as she listened to the synchronised footsteps as they marched further away from them.
Her dangling eyelashes were coated by a layer of unexplainable tears.
What was it? The thing that moved her heart, made her tear up and blinded her perception.
Running, obstacles and crawling.
This male instructor was merciless. He did not treat them like women at all. Huang Mengmeng was drowning in exhaustion, wishing that she did not have to move an inch. She sneaked a peek at the male instructor. Initially, she thought that he was a Prince Charming. Now, she only thought of him as a sicko, a middle-aged male sicko.
By the time they finished their training, all of them were worn out.
“Why did he not allow you to run?” Huang Mengmeng leaned herself against Yan Huan’s back, “You’re our Third Madam. Third Madam, oh, Third Madam...”
“Yan Huan, how heartless are you to watch us suffer from aside?”
Yan Huan took out a piece of paper from her pocket, unfolded it and swayed it before Huang Mengmeng’s eyes.
However, she held it upside down, causing Huang Mengmeng to tilt her head, again and again.
She was diagnosed with severe anemia and was required to recuperate. According to the certificate, she was not fit to join any aggressive sports. The certificate even came with the signature of the military doctor, a valid certificate from the military hospital. There was no way she could bypass this certificate.
“That’s not surprising. Your face looks pale.” Huang Mengmeng pinched Yan Huan’s cheek, “Your fans’ hearts will be wrenched if they find out what has happened to you.”
“They only have to see the result, not the process.” The strong-willed Yan Huan kept the paper back into her pocket.
Huang Mengmeng gave Yan Huan a thumbs-up.
Yan Huan was so domineering. She was completely different from the other actresses who were pretentious and liked to fish for sympathy. Huang Mengmeng used to think of Yan Huan as just another average person. Now, she had become the top fan of Yan Huan.
She was planning to brag about her relationship with Yan Huan when she returned to her hometown during the new year, that Yan Huan was her comrade. They shared a bed and a bowl of rice; they jogged together, did silly things together and got punished together.
“Assemble,” a low voice resonated across the atmosphere. Shocked, Huang Mengmeng hurriedly ran out. It was the Demon Lu again. It was as though he swore to torture them to death. Huang Mengmeng thought she was born a good fighter. She was confident enough to defeat five to six men. Hence, she was not worried.
However, Demon Lu was way more terrifying than they expected. His skill was extraordinarily cruel during a fight. His way to train the troops was even more frightening. Huang Mengmeng would never... fall for him. When he first arrived, everyone saw him as a Prince Charming, an idol with a pretty look, masculine physique and charismatic aura.
But, now, that was all bullsh*t. He had turned into Demon Lu.
When everyone assembled on the field, they expected either a five kilometers field training or a 10 kilometers one. They were not seen as women at all. Despite being a female troop and stronger than the men out there, they were nonetheless ladies.
