Chapter 240

Training started around ten o'clock and ended at eleven-forty.

In the morning, they had actually trained for less than two hours, learning a few of the simplest movements.

During this time, Instructor Qi appeared very strict on the surface, but the number and duration of breaks he gave were clearly more than the other formations around them.

Even so, when the instructor announced dismissal for lunch, most of the students in the class were still exhausted.

The more exaggerated ones, like Cao Mingliang, even had to lean on Chen Zhuang to walk.

Plus, because there was a significant height difference between the two, Cao Mingliang couldn't lean on his shoulder and could only hug one of his arms with both hands to borrow strength, making their posture look very subtle.

Everyone headed toward the nearest canteen.

Xia Nuannuan and Shen Siqi walked arm-in-arm, stealing glances at Chen Zhuang and Cao Mingliang in front and giggling.

Beside them, Qin Tian and Zhuang Zhe also couldn't bear to look at the two, unwilling to go up and pretending they weren't familiar with them.

"Cao Zei, get lost, stop leaning on me, will you? You smell like sweat!"

"Don't be like that, Brother Zhuang, help me out, I can't stand steadily."

"Damn, are you disgusting or what? Look behind, they're all watching us like a joke!"

"Doesn't matter, let them watch!"

"It matters to me! You're a grown man, aren't you ashamed? Lv Yanran is still watching you from behind!"

Chen Zhuang reminded him with a look of disdain.

"Let her watch, anyway, when I chase a woman, I don't rely on being strong."

Cao Mingliang was covered in sweat and panting, not even bothering to look back.

"Damn, isn't that the most important thing? Then what do you rely on?"

"Bullshit, that's not the most important. I rely on talent and looks."

"Pfft! Get lost!"

Chen Zhuang pushed him away with a look of disgust.

Cao Mingliang stumbled a few steps, then jogged to catch up.

"Brother Zhuang, carry me!"

"Get lost!"

Chen Zhuang didn't say another word and took off running.

Cao Mingliang knew he definitely couldn't catch up, so he stopped and turned to look at Qin Tian and the others.

Qin Tian and Zhuang Zhe's expressions changed suddenly.

"Nuannuan, come here, I'll carry you!"

Qin Tian decisively looked at Xia Nuannuan beside him and said.

"Huh?"

Xia Nuannuan was stunned.

Shen Siqi and Lu Lei were also dumbfounded.

"Hurry, hurry, I don't want to be stuck with that guy!"

"This... there are so many people here, I don't want to!"

Xia Nuannuan blushed deeply, shaking her head in refusal.

"Then just hold my arm."

Qin Tian settled for the next best thing.

"Oh!"

Xia Nuannuan blushed and nodded, let go of Shen Siqi, and held his arm with both hands.

"Tsk, truly forgetting righteousness for love!"

Shen Siqi curled her lips and took Lu Lei's arm.

"Holding hands like this, isn't it hot enough?"

Lu Lei said with a bitter smile.

"Not hot, not hot, I don't have a boyfriend, I have to have a good sister to hold onto!"

Shen Siqi said sourly.

Cao Mingliang in front saw this and his gaze fell on Zhuang Zhe.

Zhuang Zhe's mouth twitched, and he actually stopped walking, refusing to move forward.

"Zhe, what are you doing? Let's go!"

Cao Mingliang shouted.

Zhuang Zhe cleverly chose to be selectively deaf, looking up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle.

"Are you guys still my brothers? I'm almost exhausted, and you won't even give me a hand?"

Cao Mingliang shouted in exasperation.

"Nuannuan, what do you want to eat?"

Qin Tian also pretended not to hear and chatted with Xia Nuannuan with a bright smile.

"I, I haven't decided yet, let's go to the canteen and see."

Xia Nuannuan answered a bit shyly.

While talking, the two walked past Cao Mingliang hand-in-hand.

"Sorry, Lu Lei and I aren't your brothers, we can't help you."

Shen Siqi gave Cao Mingliang a playful smile and walked past with Lu Lei.

Zhuang Zhe still stood there admiring the blue sky and white clouds, not moving an inch.

"I can't carry you."

When Lv Yanran walked past Cao Mingliang, she shrugged with a helpless smile.

"Sigh!"

Cao Mingliang sighed with a melancholy expression and reached out to her, saying, "Can I hold your little hand? Then I won't be tired anymore."

Lv Yanran's pretty face flushed, and after hesitating for a moment, she still took his hand.

Cao Mingliang was truly like he had been injected with adrenaline; he wasn't panting, his legs weren't soft, and he walked briskly to catch up with the others while holding her hand.

Not far behind, another group of boys in the class saw this scene and were dumbfounded.

"Damn, that bastard is so fast?"

"Who told him to have money at home? That's a huge advantage."

"Whatever, I don't have feelings for Lv Yanran anyway, Lu Lei is my goddess."

"Get lost, Lu Lei is mine."

"You two should just forget it, there's no hope. Girls like Lu Lei, we're destined to only be able to admire from afar; Shen Siqi is my target."

"But looking at the situation, Shen Siqi won't also..."

"Get lost, shut up!"

While the few were arguing, they didn't notice Zhuang Zhe, who was like an invisible man beside them.

After Zhuang Zhe heard the words about Shen Siqi, he suddenly spoke up: "He's right, you have no chance."

"Ah! Who, who's talking?"

The few were startled and stared at Zhuang Zhe beside them in unison.

"When did you start following us? Do you know you almost scared us to death?"

"I've been here the whole time!"

Being stared at by them, Zhuang Zhe felt a bit cowardly, but maintained his composure on the surface and continued: "Our Brother Zhuang also likes Shen Siqi, you should change your target!"

"Why? So what if Chen Zhuang likes her? We can just compete fairly!"

The boy who claimed Shen Siqi was his target said unconvinced.

"I'm afraid if I tell Brother Zhuang later, he won't be able to control his fists!"

Zhuang Zhe said solemnly.

The boy opened his mouth, and the tragic image of Chen Zhuang pinning him to the ground and beating him with sandbag-sized fists appeared in his mind, so he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

The seniors had all finished their classes.

After entering the canteen, Qin Tian and the others discovered that many windows already had long lines.

These windows with lines, without a doubt, sold the most delicious and popular food in the canteen.

"Nuannuan, what shall we eat?"

Qin Tian looked at Xia Nuannuan beside him and asked.

"There are several things I want to eat!"

Xia Nuannuan looked around and said with a conflicted expression.

"Then shall we split up to queue?"

Qin Tian suggested with a smile.

"Mm-hmm!"

Xia Nuannuan nodded excitedly.

"Nuannuan, Qin Tian!"

Suddenly a shout came.

The two looked over and saw a pretty girl in a camouflage uniform not far away, waving at them with a beaming smile.

"Su Yan!"

Xia Nuannuan waved back excitedly.

That's right, the girl was none other than Su Yan, who had come to Jiang University with them.

Jiang University campus was really huge; if you weren't in the same major, it was normal not to run into each other for a month or two if you hadn't arranged to meet somewhere. They didn't expect to run into her right here in the canteen.

"Brother Tian, I'm going to queue with Su Yan."

Xia Nuannuan looked at Qin Tian and said.

"Alright, go ahead!"

Qin Tian nodded with a chuckle.
