Chapter 1423 I“m Not A Profligate SonWhen Lu Beichen was gone, someone still said resentfully, “What’s the matter with Lu Beichen? He left after taking a look. Why didn’t he even come over to say something?”
Another person who heard this said in consolation, “I think that Lu Beichen probably just wants to come over to take a look first, and only officially get to know each other after he is certain.”
“Is that so?”
“Of course. If he isn’t interested, he wouldn’t even come.”
“Moreover, the most important thing is that Lu Beichen isn’t like other people. He is the young master of the Lu family. His character is arrogant, to begin with, and he definitely won’t say anything outright.”
Cheng Naixin felt that what they said made sense. Her countenance turned back to normal by now. “Forget it. I said that we should let these matters occur naturally. There isn’t anything that’s definite.”
“That can’t do. The two of you must get together. Naixin, even if you don’t fight for it, we’ll help you.”
“That’s right, that’s right. The two of you are the most compatible with each other.”
Everyone was saying this and Cheng Naixin’s eyes lit up.
Who wouldn’t want to be with Lu Beichen?
She already knew about it when Lu Beichen said that he was going to transfer here, and couldn’t help but develop a yearning in her heart. When she came to this school, her family had said that there were a lot of people from rich families here. As long as she could catch onto one, the rest of her life would be taken care of.
And on the other side.
Lu Beichen went back.
Gu Jingyan asked, “Where did you go?”
“Oh, I went out to take a look.”
Gu Jingyan smiled. “Why? Did you go and take a look at the school’s top beauty?”
Lu Beichen assessed her. “How did you know?”
Gu Jingyan looked up. “There are people looking at you no matter where you go. The moment you stepped out of the classroom, someone was already saying that you had left the classroom and went to another class. Later on, someone else said that you went to the top beauty’s classroom. If you want to meet the top beauty, then just say it outright. Why did you have to sound so disdainful about it earlier?”
“…”
Lu Beichen didn’t expect that people would already spread news of him after he walked such a short distance. These people must be too bored.
“So what? I only went to take a look at how the so-called top beauty looks like.”
“Oh? Then how do you feel now after seeing her?”
“Sigh, I can only say that these people are blind. There’s nothing I can do about it.”
Gu Jingyan shook her head. “You’re the one who is lofty and arrogant. It’s true that the Lu family’s young master must have seen all kinds of beauties. Girls from such insignificant families aren’t to your liking. Oh right, you better start making preparations. The military training will be starting in a few days. The notification was just sent out earlier.”
“Military training?”
“Yes.”
“It has already been so long since school started.”
“It has only been about a month. It was too hot when school started, and they were worried about us. Therefore, the training was pushed back for one month. You came at such great timing.”
“…”
The day for the start of the military training came quickly.
During these few days, lessons would be stopped and military training would be conducted. The school was filled with people dressed in green camouflage uniforms early in the morning.
Gu Jingyan and Fu Chenxi arrived very early.
Everyone arrived very quickly and started doing warm-up exercises. Military training also started officially.
However, Fu Chenyi realized that Lu Beichen hadn’t come.
“Lu Beichen isn’t here yet. The instructor would be angry.”
Their instructor looked very fierce and had hollered at them from the very beginning, giving a few girls in the class a bad scare. Fu Chenxi was also so scared that she stood very straight, not daring to make any mistakes.
Gu Jingyan looked around. “Who knows where he went off to. We’ll see how things go later.”
They were saying this when the rumbling sound of an engine rang out.
A bright red Ferrari appeared outside the parade square.
Lu Beichen hadn’t been able to wear his camouflage uniform in time either and had just draped it over his shoulder. He wore light blue and white clothing and came running over.
“Wow, Lu Beichen is here.”
“He’s so handsome. Lu Beichen’s car is so cool.”
“He can drive such a great car at such a young age.”
“His driving skills seem good too.”
The instructor felt greater contempt toward Lu Beichen after seeing that he alone had stirred up the entire class, and no one was standing at attention anymore. All of them were just admiring Lu Beichen’s good looks.
This was just a young master from a rich family, pampered since young, and probably hadn’t been through any hardship at all.
Lu Beichen came over.
“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m late.”
The instructor assessed him.
Although Lu Beichen was only a high school student, his height was already over 1.8 meters. However, his figure was still lean like a young man’s and wasn’t burly like an adult’s.
The instructor wore a cold expression and snorted. “From the moment military training started, this place is no longer a school. It’s now a training ground. You guys are soldiers, military soldiers who might have to enter the battlefield at any moment. There are no rich young masters or pampered little princesses. Those who wish to drink milk can go back and do that. This isn’t a childcare center, and I won’t give anyone face. So…” He let out a snort and said, “Don’t think that you’ll be given any privileges. You’re dressed like this and are even late. Heh, this isn’t the way for you to attract attention. Do you really think that you’re special? Go and stand at attention under the sun for four hours. Don’t come back until the time is up.”
Everyone looked at Lu Beichen pitifully with him having to stand at attention for four hours under the sun.
Lu Beichen narrowed his eyes as he looked at the instructor. “Although I feel sorry for being late, what do you mean that this place isn’t a childcare center? What do you mean by a rich young master?”
Lu Beichen rebutted, and everyone was shocked.
To think that he had spoken up against the instructor.
Lu Beichen had just felt that the instructor had gone overboard. He hadn’t thought much of things, even if it meant that he had to be punished. However, the way the instructor said such prejudiced and contemptuous words made him felt very uncomfortable.
And Lu Beichen was clearly not someone who would hold things in.
The instructor expected this and said while letting out a snort, “There’s no nanny here to feed you milk. Why? Do you think that you’ve reason on your side when you’re late?”
“It’s one thing about me being late, but that has nothing to do with me living up a pampered life. I just feel that military training is a little childish. It’s just standing at attention and marching. It’s very boring.”
“Ha! You’re saying that this is boring?” The instructor said, “This is the basics of being a soldier! All of us had been through this, from standing at attention to being able to go into the battlefield. What do you know?”
Lu Beichen said, “That’s enough. One doesn’t rely on their mouth to go into battle. I said that I don’t care about this, which means that I don’t care about this. If you are unconvinced, we can have a competition. The one who wins has the right to speak.”
The instructor frowned.
However, he didn’t feel that a pampered young master would know much about anything.
This was especially after he saw how Lu Beichen drove and flaunted that expensive car. He knew that this was a weakling who only knew to show off his wealth to attract attention. They had seen many such profligate sons before and didn’t care for Lu Beichen at all.
“Ha, you want to compete against me? In what? In fighting? I know that people of your age like to fight, but you have to be clear about things. The way we fight is different from those street brawling.”
Lu Beichen said, “You can show me what you’ve got. I’ll take it the challenge.”
