Chapter 1004: Cringe
After making a trip to the military base to meet her commander, Xiang Wai didn't know where to go when she suddenly planned to go find her boyfriend. Lately, he had been coming to find her whenever he had time, so today she decided to go and look for him instead.
Thinking of this, she changed her direction and drove toward the old military training ground. Arriving at her destination, she just had to go through an identity check and she was let in.
As she walked in, she could hear the voices of trainees.
She looked at the young trainees who looked very weak and were barely holding up. They were in such a bad state that she thought something might happen to them. But of course, instructors knew their limits too at this time, a whistle rang out as a loud voice, "Take a break!"
Once that loud voice was done, everyone fell to the ground as if they were dominoes. Xiang Wai found it kinda funny. But she didn't laugh and instead, kept her posture straight and let out her awe-inspiring aura.
"Major Xiang!" The instructor found Xiang Wai and gave her a proper salute.
"You don't have to do that," said Xiang Wai. "I'm still on break."
The instructor didn't listen and made his attitude clear.
"Is Major looking for our Captain?"
"Yes," replied Xiang Wai. "I'm looking for Captain Zhai. I don't see him here. Isn't he here?"
A few of the soldiers shared a look and they avoided her eyes making Xiang Wai frown slightly. "Is everything okay?"
The instructor standing in front of her chose to answer, "Captain is in the infirmary."
"What? Why? Did he get injured?" But then she denied her own words. How was it possible to get injured while training a few college students from the Performing Arts College? She didn't think it was possible. "What's going on?"
"A student got injured and Captain had to take her to the infirmary," replied the instructor while praying silently for his Captain right now.
"Being a Captain, he had to do it all himself?" asked Xiang Wai with a smile. "How interesting." With that, she walked towards the infirmary as the smile vanished from her face instantly making her look really scary.
Feeling the coldness emanating from her, all the soldiers gathered around and whispered, "Do you think Captain is gonna be in trouble? I have heard that Major Xiang likes to talk with her fists a lot more. I pray for Captain's safety."
"Don't talk nonsense!" said the instructor to these gossiping men and women. "Captain did nothing wrong."
"We know that," said one of the female soldiers. "But Major doesn't know that. You know, women can find a bone even in eggs if they want to. You shouldn't underestimate their ability to make a mountain out of a molehill."
"Stop talking and get back to your positions!"
On the other side, Xiang Wai arrived at the infirmary and heard a very sweet voice calling out, "Yanjun Gege, it hurts."
Xiang Wai cringed at that sticky sweet voice. It was very uncomfortable.
"If you cooperate with the doctor, it won't hurt!" came Zhai Yanjun's voice from inside, and from Xiang Wai's experience she could tell he was very impatient right now.
"I'm scared," said the girl in an even sweeter voice.
Xiang Wai got curious to know what was so scary so she walked inside to see. She almost cursed when she realized that the girl's ankle was slightly grazed. You get it? It was barely even bleeding! What the fuck was scary about that?
Xiang Wai felt her temper rising up when she realized it.
The girl tried to hold Zhai Yanjun's hand when the doctor was applying the antiseptic on her teeny tiny wound but Xiang Wai walked over before her brain could stop her and held those sticky paws from approaching her boyfriend.
Did she look like a radish? Or a bloody vase?
How could anyone just assume they could take advantage of her boyfriend? 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m
"Ah!" the girl screamed in pain before Xiang Wai's grip wasn't gentle. Not gentle at all. It was just as hard as her. "Who are you? How dare you hurt me?!" Her eyes instantly tear up as if the tears would fall at her command and it really made Xiang Wai want to applaud her talent. Seeing this, she couldn't really evoke the feeling of protectiveness towards the fairer sex!
Bleh! She was also the fairer sex here!
And she felt nothing for this actress!
"Yanjun Gege, she hurt me," said the girl looking at Zhai Yanjun and complaining with her pitiful look.
Zhai Yanjun was stunned for a moment because he didn't expect to see Xiang Wai here and when he registered that she was really here, he was too happy to even pay attention to the injured girl. He held Xiang Wai's hand and took out a wet wipe to clean her hand saying, "What are you doing touching anything? What if it's dirty?"
The girl was stunned shock to hear that and forgot to continue her act.
Xiang Wai gave him a contented look before saying, "Who asked her to extend her hands towards what's mine?" With that, she even shot a glare at the girl who was still sitting frozen.
Zhai Yanjun patted her head as if soothing the ruffled fur of his precious cat and said, "It's okay. No one can touch what's yours. Stop frowning." He pressed on the crease between her brows. "Wait for me for a minute." Then he turned to girl and said, "Miss Du, if you can't handle the training, I can let the commander know about this. Your injury isn't serious. But if you insist that you're in pain, we can send you the military hospital for a check up." Saying that, he turned to the doctor, "You should send her to the hospital."
Then without waiting for the girl's response, he pulled Xiang Wai out of there.
