Chapter 143: Going to Have Some Fun in the Military
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jian Dan took a cab to the campus. Upon reaching campus, Jian Dan made a beeline for Xiaoyang’s dormitory…
Unexpectedly, when she arrived at his dormitory, she realized that he was carrying his luggage.
Jian Dan ran over and asked breathlessly, “It’s not vacation yet. Where are you going with your luggage?”
Ling Xiaoyang did not expect Jian Dan to suddenly appear at this time.
He was going to tell her after he left. Although he wanted to see her again before he left, he was afraid of seeing her. Hence, he decided to leave straight.
Before he left, he was still wondering if she would suddenly appear. Unexpectedly, she really appeared. At first, he thought that it was an illusion from his intense longing and he dreamed her into life.
It wasn’t until Jian Dan’s hand was on his shoulder that he realized it was not an illusion. She was really here.
The moment he saw Jian Dan, his emotions were indescribable. He was completely out to lunch as he stared at her.
“Earth to Ling Xiaoyang! 1 asked you a question!”
Why was this guy out in space?
Only then did Ling Xiaoyang recover from his emotions. “Oh! 1 dropped out!”
“Drop out? Why did you drop out?”
He was the most outstanding student in this batch of Computer Science cohort. If nothing went wrong, he was definitely comparable to her. Why did he suddenly drop out?
“I’m enlisting!”
“Enlisting? Why do you suddenly want to join the army?”
He was doing well in college but suddenly wanted to join the army. What was up with him?
Ling Xiaoyang smiled and looked at Jian Dan without saying anything…
The reason why he chose to join the army was entirely because of Jian Dan because of what happened last time. If he had not been so weak, Jian Dan would not have been so seriously injured and almost lost her life.
He really did not want to experience that feeling of powerlessness again. He wanted to become someone who could not only protect himself, but also had the ability to protect the people he cared about.
“Say something!”
The corners of Xiaoyang’s lips curled up into a smile. “I feel that what 1 learned in school is too simple. It’s not challenging and too boring! So I’m going to have some fun in the military.”
He pretended to make a joke out of it.
“But…”
Although Jian Dan had never been to a real military camp, she heard that life in the military was very hard. Could a young master like Xiaoyang—who had been pampered since he was young—really adapt to military life?
“Don’t worry! A mere military camp won’t be a problem for me! I’ll come back when I’ve had my fill of fun!”
Ling Xiaoyang reached out to pat Jian Dan’s head, but just as he was about to touch her head, he patted her shoulder instead.
“Have you really decided?”
“Don’t act like we’re going to part forever, okay? It’s not like I’m not coming back! Why? Can’t bear to part with me?” Ling Xiaoyang said in a playful tone.
“Oh, please! 1 was just wondering if your parents would agree.”
“I decide my own life. They can’t control me.”
“How willful!”
“By the way, you must have a reason to be here for me! Tell me before I leave!”
“Sigh! It’s all because of Uncle and his bright ideas.” Jian Dan handed Xiaoyang the training regimen that Chu Liyuan had devised for her.
After reading it, Xiaoyang immediately understood why she pulled such a long face.
Based on what he knew about Jian Dan, it would really be easier to just kill her than to make her follow this training regimen!
“Uncle Chu is so ruthless to you!”
Other than basic physical training, there was also professional training such as combat skills, shooting, and so on.
“Precisely! I’m so screwed.”
A huge dark cloud loomed over Jian Dan’s head.
“Then you came to me because…”
“I wanted to see if you have any way to help me deal with this training, just like how you helped me with my PE credits.”
Jian Dan looked at Xiaoyang with a face of anticipation, hoping that he could help her.
Xiaoyang shook his head… “I’m not familiar with many programs in the regimen, so I’m afraid I’m of no help this time.”
In the past, Ling Xiaoyang had always felt that he was outstanding in many aspects, be it sports or studies. However, through this incident, he distinctly understood that he was lacking in many things and was not as outstanding as he had previously thought.
This was also why he had to join the military to train himself.
Jian Dan sighed in disappointment. Even Xiaoyang could not do anything about it.. It seemed that she was really… screwed this time!
