Chapter 58: Provocated Time and Again
Bai Xue rushed in and saw Wu Mei standing in front of the wardrobe with a flustered expression and her eyes were darting around. She was certain that someone was hiding inside!
“During the training period, no outsiders are allowed to enter the dormitory. Have you forgotten?” f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮
“Open it, let me take a look!” Bai Xue used her status as an instructor to oppress her.
Wu Mei pressed the closet door with her hand and said to her, “What do you want to see, Instructor Bai? It’s all private stuff inside. It’s not good to mess around with that, right?”
“Cut the crap!”
Bai Xue pushed her away and opened the door, only to realize that there was nothing inside except a few sets of clothes!
Unwilling to give up, she rummaged through everything and nearly removed the wooden plank. Standing beside her, Wu Mei crossed her arms and smiled sarcastically.
“What’s wrong? Are you disappointed, Instructor Bai? Or do you think the uniform for new cadets looks better and want to wear it again?”
Wu Mei smiled and leaned against the cabinet.
Bai Xue’s face turned pale, but she stubbornly retorted, “As an instructor, I have the right to check your dormitory! Who knows if you’re hiding a wild man and damaging the reputation of the Ministry of Defense!”
“Hey, don’t accuse me. Instructor Bai, take a mirror and look at yourself… Tsk, does Ben know what you’re like?” f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
Wu Mei deliberately jabbed her in the heart. Bai Xue wasn’t willing to give up, but she was afraid that things would get out of hand. If the Ministry of Defence said that she had failed in supervision, she would have to leave.
Leaning against the door, Zhong Ling watched as Bai Xue’s figure disappeared. Clutching her beating heart, she turned to run to Wu Mei’s side and asked, “Where did you hide him? It’s been so long, but I didn’t notice him either!”
The entire dorm room is just a few square meters. Did he disappear into thin air?
“Hurry…”
Wu Mei dashed to the bathroom. She pushed the bubbles in the bathtub aside and hauled Li Nanchen out of the water!
His eyes were closed and his lips were pale. Even though his wound was wrapped in waterproof cloth, it still showed signs of being soaked.
Wu Mei patted his face lightly and tried to wake him up. Her voice was a little panicked. Seeing that Li Nanchen was not responding, she turned around and said, “Zhong Ling, give me a hand!”
“Okay!”
Zhong Ling was about to step forward when she saw Li Nanchen’s hand on Wu Mei’s waist. “No need, I’m fine.”
He could not hide the smile on his lips. He gently held her back and brought her close to his chest. The hot temperature caused the flirtatious atmosphere in the bathroom to intensify.
Zhong Ling sighed and left out of habit.
“Sorry, I couldn’t control myself and woke up early,” Li Nanchen said in a low voice. His thin lips brushed against her earlobe. Feeling her shiver, his smile grew wider. “If my acting was more realistic, would someone perform mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on me?”
Hearing his frivolous tone, Wu Mei knew that he was recovering pretty well and would not die for the time being. She raised her fist and punched his shoulder twice.
She pulled two towels over and threw them to Li Nanchen. She watched as he propped himself up against the sides of the bathtub with both hands and slowly stood up…
His abdominal muscles were clearly defined. She subconsciously glanced at them and caught Li Nanchen’s teasing smile from the corner of her eye. She coughed and crossed her arms as she urged him, “Hurry up.”
Outside the dorm room, Feng Yue had caught wind about Bai Xue barging in to conduct a search. When she passed by their windows, she said loudly, “Aiya, our training camp is really full of strange things. Previously, there was a piece of trash who could get first place. Now, there might be someone hiding a wild man in the dormitory!”
“I think it’s time to do some investigations on the Ministry of Defense’s Special Agents! Let’s see if someone is a third party of theirs…”
Feng Yue was grabbing a towel. The next second, a throwing knife flashed past her eyes and stabbed into the pillar she was leaning against. It went half an inch deep!
Feng Yue swallowed her saliva silently. Horrified, she watched as the two wisps of hair that had been cut off floated onto the ground…
Feng Yue refused to admit defeat. She mustered up her courage and continued shouting at the window, “Why? Are you afraid of people talking about what you did? Are you trying to silence me?”
“If you have what it takes, come out and compete with me!” Feng Yue was filled with restrained anger but unable to vent it.
Wu Mei stood by the window and looked at her quietly as if she was an idiot. “If I were you, I would be so embarrassed that I would want to crawl into a hole in the ground. Is being treated as a joke something to be very glorious and proud of?”
After she said that, Feng Yue realized that all the new cadets were standing in front of the window and watching her throw a tantrum!
That sense of shame almost made Feng Yue break down. She pointed at Wu Mei and shouted, “Tomorrow’s outdoor competition! You will definitely be eliminated! I will definitely surpass you…”
“Okay.”
Wu Mei looked at her and ignored her. She pulled the curtains gently.
Swoosh…
The curtains completely blocked Feng Yue’s line of sight, leaving only an awkward aftertaste.
