Chapter 237: The Clown in the Joke

"Xia Nuannuan, was your Qin Tian's temper originally this big? Scared me to death!"

Beside Xia Nuannuan, a girl who was slightly taller than her lowered her voice and said.

The girls around all pricked up their ears with curious expressions.

"No, Brother Tian's personality is very gentle, he rarely acts like this."

Xia Nuannuan defended Qin Tian with a serious face.

"Then when you were in high school together, did you ever see him get this angry?"

The girl asked again.

"No!"

Xia Nuannuan shook her head decisively.

Actually, there was, and that was the day she was bullied by Xu Ying. When Qin Tian stood up for her, he also got angry like he was now.

But she naturally wouldn't say it.

And in her eyes, Qin Tian, who was furious to protect her at the time, wasn't scary at all, but very handsome and domineering, as if his whole person was shining.

"Then it seems Qin Tian is really angry today."

The girl curled her lips.

Xia Nuannuan nodded slightly, agreeing: "It was originally that boy who went too far. Qin Tian had already discussed it with him nicely, but he was completely unreasonable."

"Qin Tian is your boyfriend, you definitely take his side!"

The girl said with a teasing smile.

"How come, it was originally like that!"

Xia Nuannuan's face flushed slightly.

"Alright, alright, what you said is also right, I was just joking, it's indeed Qin Tian who is in the right."

"That's right!"

"What's 'that's right'?"

A familiar voice rang out.

"Ah?"

Xia Nuannuan was startled, looked up at Qin Tian who appeared beside her at some point, and waved her hands in a panic with a blushing face: "Nothing, nothing."

Standing between the two, the tall girl looked at the two with bright eyes and teased with a smile: "Your wife is taking your side!"

"Cheng Meng!"

Xia Nuannuan patted her with a blushing face.

This girl was from the dormitory next to theirs, a tomboy with an open and carefree personality.

"My wife, isn't it a matter of course for her to take my side?"

Qin Tian said with a smile.

Including Cheng Meng, the group of girls around were stunned for a moment, then all felt as if they had eaten a whole lemon, feeling very sour.

"Mom, can't stand it, why did I stand here."

"God, so cheesy, goosebumps are coming up."

"I'd rather be shorter than be willing to stand here and eat dog food."

"Qin Tian, don't be here, go to the front, go to the front."

"Military training hasn't even started yet, and my mental level has already been hurt."

Several girls shouted one after another.

Xia Nuannuan lowered her head, her small face blushing as if it were about to drip blood.

"My Nuan Nuan is easily shy, don't bully her!"

Qin Tian reminded with a chuckle, then stopped paying attention to the chattering girls and walked to the middle position in front of the square formation to stand.

Before long, counselor Shu Peng also came over. Seeing that the team of Class 1 had already been organized, she first praised Qin Tian, the temporary person in charge, for doing a beautiful job, and also gave praise to the classmates in the class.

Until the counselor went to the square formation of Class 2 next to them, Qin Tian didn't mention a word about the disputes with Feng Jun just now.

In the square formation, Feng Jun, who was hanging his head, breathed a sigh of relief.

But his hatred for Qin Tian didn't decrease at all.

Those who could get into Jiang University were, without exception, study gods in the eyes of classmates, "fragrant buns" in the eyes of teachers, and "other people's children" in the mouths of parents during high school.

Being flattered and praised too much, over time, their personalities became a bit too proud, starting to center on themselves, thinking that the whole world should revolve around them.

Just having arrived at Jiang University, their mentality hadn't had time to change yet.

Therefore, when Qin Tian asked him to change positions and stand well, Feng Jun felt unconvinced.

So what if he was a College Entrance Examination Top Scholar?

Since everyone came to Jiang University, they

Furthermore, having always been the center of attention in his high school class, he now felt as if he had been reduced to an ordinary person, with all the spotlight focused on Qin Tian.

Consequently, deep down, Feng Jun instinctively felt jealousy and hostility toward Qin Tian; in a moment of hot-headedness, he went head-to-head with him.

What he never expected was that Qin Tian would be so tough, showing him absolutely no face.

There was no doubt that today's incident would be treated as a joke by everyone in the class from now on, and he would be the clown in that joke.

The pride and intense self-esteem in Feng Jun's heart made it impossible for him to swallow this insult.

While he harbored hatred for Qin Tian in his heart, Qin Tian didn't even take this clown seriously, gazing into the distance and looking around.

As far as his eyes could see, he saw the instructors in military uniforms with upright postures, jogging toward them in neat rows.

As the formations of each class stood in line one after another, and with the control of the counselors, the noisy sounds on the athletic field gradually subsided.

From the two loudspeakers on the stage, a stirring march suddenly began to play, drowning out all the clamor on the athletic field.

The school leaders, along with the military leaders responsible for this year's freshman military training at Jiang University, soon appeared on the rostrum together and took their seats one after another.

The host was a senior from the school's broadcasting and hosting major; after the music stopped, he began the opening remarks for the military training mobilization meeting in standard, fluent Mandarin.

The first item was the raising of the national flag and the playing of the national anthem.

Immediately following that, school leaders and instructor representatives spoke one after another.

Next was a formation demonstration by the instructors for all the freshmen, as well as the full set of movements they would need to perform in the final review after the military training ended.

Time passed nine o'clock, the sun had risen high, and the athletic field felt as if it were being baked by the scorching sun.

In the formations of each class, many students were already covered in sweat, their faces flushed red from the sun.

Throughout the entire third year of high school, everyone had basically been sitting in classrooms gnawing on books, lacking physical exercise.

Now, before the military training had even begun, just the rise in temperature was already making many students feel like they couldn't take it.

Around nine-thirty, the mobilization meeting ended; after the school leaders left the stage, the host told the students in the class formations to stay where they were and wait for the instructors to arrive.

"So hot, it's only morning, what are we going to do at noon!"

"This sun... it's over, I didn't even have time to put on sunscreen this morning, I'm going to get tanned."

"If we really have to train under this sun, sunscreen won't be any use; you might as well paint yourself."

"Pfft, you're a ruthless one, go paint yourself then!"

"Xia Nuannuan, look at the sweat on my forehead, it's really going to be the death of me!"

"Jiangcheng is just like this, you're from the north, you must be more afraid of the heat than us!"

Behind him came the chattering discussions of the girls.

Qin Tian turned around to look at his classmates and said loudly, "While the instructors haven't arrived yet, let a few boys go to the supermarket and buy some water and drinks for everyone; it's on me."

Hearing this, the classmates were instantly excited, cheering and showering Qin Tian with flattery.
