Chapter 597: Turmoil in the Hostel
Zhao You’er sat down next to Li Beinian and said, “Oh, here you are. I’ve been looking for you.”
From her tone, those who didn’t know better would have thought that Zhao You’er were on close terms with her.
Li Beinian smiled and said, “Finish your food quickly then go back and take a short nap. We have to gather again at 2 pm.”
“Yes, yes!” Zhao You’er smiled and quickly lowered her head to eat.
Li Beinian didn’t mind her. She glanced around the cafeteria and saw Guan Yueyun and Li Xueqing sitting at the same table. Wang Shao, on the other hand, was sitting with another actor and they appeared to be chatting happily.
After the meal, Li Beinian felt exhausted.
She took the basin and went to wipe herself down. Then she changed into a fresh set of clothes and got into bed.
However, just as she laid down, she heard Li Xueqing’s voice. The girl said, “…When I go back, I must ask my mother to cook more delicious food for me. Although the food here isn’t bad, it’s not what I like.”
Li Beinian was speechless.
She turned around, reached for her earplugs and eye shades that were in her cabinet, and closed her eyes.
However, very soon after she had fallen asleep, she was woken up by a loud noise. It was the sound of a basin dropping onto the ground.
Startled, Li Beinian sat up and looked up. She realized that she wasn’t the only one awake. Guan Yueyun and Liu Wei were also awake.
Li Xueqing picked up the basin and immediately said, “It slipped. You guys get back to sleep.”
Liu Wei frowned fiercely. She wasn’t a good-tempered person, so she replied impatiently at once, “You’re so annoying. You can’t even sleep quietly. Can’t you just stop for a bit???”
Li Xueqing did not speak, but Li Beinian could see the disdain in her eyes.
Liu Wei had already crawled back into bed and did not notice it.
Guan Yueyun, too, saw what had happened. She glanced at Li Beinian and exchanged a look. Then they laid back down as if nothing had happened.
However, Li Beinian was unable to fall asleep again after being woken up.
She tried hard to take a nap, but the shrill whistle sounded.
Liu Wei was furious. She got up and started changing.
Li Xueqing mumbled unhappily, “I haven’t slept yet.”
As she spoke, she got up and looked at the others who were still sleepy. Without saying a word, she started changing.
Female celebrities had to wear makeup at all times. Obviously, other than Li Beinian and Liu Wei, everyone else had this awareness.
After Li Beinian had changed and folded the blanket, she realized that everyone’s face was dolled up.
This time, it was no surprise. Li Beinian and Liu Wei were the first to arrive, followed by Wang Shao, Zhao You’er, and Li Xueqing.
Although there was a time difference, it was less than three minutes apart.
Yang Dawu frowned in dissatisfaction and said, “Female soldiers, you have to have a sense of time. The next time you hear the horn, you must come down within five minutes. Otherwise, you will be punished.”
“Yes!”
The early stages of training focused on improving physical strength and comprised various physical training.
Running, sit-ups, push-ups, frog jumps, and planking.
On the first day, they practiced for an hour in the afternoon and rested for an hour. Then, they gathered together and jested around. After that, they practiced for more than an hour.
The day finally ended at 5: 30 pm.
After that, everyone gathered in the bathroom to take a shower.
The bathhouse was very wide and this floor was specially set aside for the female soldiers. There was more than enough room for six people.
Li Beinian was resourceful and brought her own laundry soap. Liu Wei saw it and said, “Give me some.”
