Chapter 34

Chapter 34

Chloe was never the type to sit still, as everyone around her knew clearly. No one knew how a proper young lady like her could be so energetic and mischievous.

She had numerous minor injuries all over her body, but Ren Yunying was wary of Chloe's young age and also genuinely liked this student, so she held back and did not hit heavily.

But it did hurt badly. Chloe leaned against Anderson, her face pale.

Noticing the commotion, Qin Huaibei and Daniel came over.

"What happened? Why did the instructor suddenly hit you?" Qin Huaibei asked with a frown.

His gaze fell upon the cuts on Chloe's arm, full of concern.

Chloe herself did not think it a big deal and casually waved a hand. "It's no big deal."

As soon as she finished speaking, Anderson's cold voice sounded from behind her: "Oh really? Then shall the young miss walk back herself?"

Chloe quickly grabbed Anderson's arm, looking up at him with an innocent smile, "Now look at you, always saying things to irritate me. How could you bear to leave me?"

Moreover, if Anderson really abandoned Chloe and left, once her injuries healed, she would definitely skin him.

Watching on the sidelines, Daniel clicked his tongue. "So even good students like you get beaten by the instructor? I thought only I would."

A good student? Hearing this title, Chloe almost laughed out loud.

She would be lucky not to cause trouble, yet people expected her to be a good student?

Just as Chloe let out a mocking laugh, Ren Yunying walked over from afar.

Chloe quickly fell silent, blinking innocently at her.

With such a well-behaved appearance, no one could tell she was rebellious enough to steal her instructor's whip.

"Humph." Ren Yunying took out a box of medicated ointment from her pocket. "Here, so others don't say I mistreat my students."

Chloe happily took it at once. "Thank you, instructor! Are you busy, instructor? Would you like to come to my dorm and sit for a while?"

Ren Yunying completely ignored her and walked away, whip in hand.

Seeing this, Chloe felt rather regretful.

If she had invited the instructor to her dorm, she might have been able to take a close look at that whip.

One glance at her thoughts and Anderson felt a headache coming on. "Don't get any ideas. Come on, I'll carry you back."

With that said, he walked around to stand in front of Chloe and went down on one knee, offering his back.

Chloe naturally lay down upon him, letting the boy a whole head taller easily carry her as he walked.

From their posture and actions to their words, the two seemed very familiar with each other, like old friends who had known each other for years.

Qin Huaibei's expression was complicated. He volunteered, "Do you need any help?"

Chloe tilted her head to one side, a casual look in her dark red eyes. "That wouldn't be proper, would it? Men and women should keep their distance."

Daniel did not understand. "Then why is it okay for Anderson?"

"Because he belongs to me," Chloe said matter-of-factly. "He is mine, so what's the problem with him entering my dorm?"

She had saved Anderson's life, so exchanging that for over a decade of companionship and care was not excessive at all.

Thinking this, Chloe hugged the man in front of her tighter around the neck.

Hearing her words, Qin Huaibei's expression turned somewhat strange and he stood frozen in place.

Anderson, up ahead, spoke up, "Shall we go now?"

"Let's go!" Chloe made a casual salute at Qin Huaibei with two fingers pressed to her brow, then left the training ground.

Leaving Qin Huaibei and Daniel standing there.

Qin Huaibei frowned, seemingly lost in thought about something.

Unable to figure it out, he nudged Daniel beside him. "What do you think?"

The vague question could have referred to any number of things, yet Daniel understood his meaning.

Excitedly, Daniel said, "That's so cool! What do you think are the chances of me going to the tribal lands to rescue a wolf cub and have it grow up to work like an ox and horse for me?"

Qin Huaibei froze for a moment, his expression hard to comprehend. "You're an idiot."

Daniel: "???"

Why was he suddenly called stupid when nothing was wrong?

...

Anderson used the key Chloe had given him to unlock the villa door.

Chloe had not lived here long. The entire villa was abnormally tidy and clean.

After looking around, Anderson lifted the tablecloth and found a pile of items shoved underneath, just as expected.

He let out a sigh.

Oblivious, Chloe sat down on the sofa and opened the medicated ointment Ren Yunying had given her, sniffing it closely. She was immediately smoked by it, "It smells awful!"

She wondered what the ingredients were that made it smell so bad.

Chloe was a little reluctant to use it now.

She secretly tried to hide the ointment away, but before she could, Anderson caught her.

The boy's emerald eyes were full of gloom as he pried open Chloe's fingers and took the ointment.

Annoyed, Chloe narrowed her eyes. "What's with you being so aggressive?"

As soon as she said this, Anderson lowered his eyes. "I'm sorry, I lost control."

Having said so, he squeezed some ointment out and pulled Chloe's arm over to apply it to her wounds.

The stinging sensation of the ointment was intense, directly irritating the injured skin and flesh. Chloe didn't even blink, instead urging him on, "Hurry up, I still want to go to the training room to play later."

Hearing this, Anderson slowly raised his head, his eyes clearly showing disapproval.

Chloe looked away, pretending not to have seen it.

"You can't," Anderson directly refused. "Your injuries are serious."

"What's so serious about it?" Chloe did not understand. "I can still run and jump. It's just some wounds, not like I'm disabled or anything."

But this time, Anderson's attitude was unusually firm. "No, Kewen ordered me to take good care of you, that is my duty."

Upon hearing this, Chloe frowned in irritation, "Kewen can't control me either, so it's meaningless for you to use him to pressure me."

"I just want to tell you, if you insist on going out now and something happens again, they will determine that I was negligent in my duties and impose punishment. "

Anderson's voice softened as he bit his lip, looking somewhat sad, "My lady wouldn't bear to watch me get punished, would she?"

"......"

To be honest, Chloe wouldn't mind.

But she somehow inexplicably felt a little guilty for no reason, and didn't say it out loud.

Besides, she had shielded Anderson for so long and harbored an indescribable motherly protectiveness over him.

If Anderson really got punished because of her, Chloe herself probably wouldn't feel good either.

She had no choice but to concede, "Fine, I won't go today."

As soon as she said this, Anderson's lips curled up slightly as he gently said, "Shall I go make dinner for my lady?"

Chloe reluctantly nodded.

After Anderson left the living room, Chloe shamelessly rested her legs on the sofa armrests, her military uniform worn casually.

At the same time, the doorbell at the entrance rang.
