125: Chapter 105: The Reason Why the Leader’s Face is Swollen 125: Chapter 105: The Reason Why the Leader’s Face is Swollen Usually, Zhou Hanliang would ask Zhou Mikang to go to the canteen for breakfast together, but now, he wished he could hide from Zhou Mikang all the way in outer space, so he certainly wouldn’t take the initiative to approach him.
“Instructor, are you taking the Regintal Commander’s portion back?” Old Chang’s question from the canteen put Zhou Hanliang into a dilemma.
Could it be that he really had to face the scolding?
Being scolded was a minor issue.
If he were really sent into outer space, that would be a major problem.
Well, outer space was impossible, but being transferred to another regint was possible.
Maybe…
wait until the Regintal Commander cald down?
Thinking this, Zhou Hanliang quickly said, “No need…” His gaze fell upon the two portions of food Old Chang had already prepared, and he quickly corrected himself, “Since it’s ready, give it to .
I was planning not to take any, to wait until I finished eating.”
Old Chang grinned, “You gave a scare; I thought you and the Regintal Commander had a disagreent, heh heh…” The two of them had been in the sa squad as recruits and used to share bunk beds; even today, despite the stark difference in their ranks, their interaction remained as informal as before.
“You, Old Chang, are you hoping the Regintal Commander will lecture ?” Zhou Hanliang glared at him, carrying the two boxes of food out.
Usually, he and Regintal Commander Zhou were as close as Jiao and ng; if he dared to eat in the canteen alone, it wouldn’t be a quarter of an hour before the news that he was despised by Regintal Commander Zhou would spread throughout the entire military region.
Alas, what a bad influence of a friend!
Incidentally glanced at by Zhou Hanliang’s lancholic eyes, Old Chang imdiately felt goosebumps all over, and couldn’t help but speculate in his heart.
He heard that Laowu (Zhou Hanliang was called Laowu when they were in the sa squad) managed to get a beautiful girlfriend.
Could it be that having a girlfriend made him more feminine?
Speaking of which, that little look just now was too much to handle!
A veteran coming to get food teased Old Chang, “Seeing the gap between a good brother and oneself widening, are you feeling a bit envious?”
“Talking nonsense!” Old Chang shot him a look, perfunctorily spooning food into his bowl and grabbing two rolls, “Go eat.”
“Hey…” the old soldier moved closer to him, lowering his voice, “Guess why Regintal Commander Zhou isn’t coming to the canteen to eat today?”
“I dare not speculate on the matters of the superiors…” Old Chang said indifferently, “Also, don’t talk to about any gossip.”
“You…” The old soldier shook his head helplessly, “You really scared once and feared for ten years.
Fine, if we’re not talking, we’re not talking.” With that, he took his food to find an empty table and stretched his neck to gossip with others.
Zhou Hanliang, carrying his al, stopped in front of Zhou Mikang’s office door, hesitated for a mont, then stepped back to peek through the window—Regintal Commander Zhou was sitting at his desk, reading docunts.
To enter or not to enter?
To enter or not to enter?…
Seeing soone approaching from a distance, Zhou Hanliang clenched his teeth, steeled his heart, and pushed open the door to the office: “Regintal Commander, it’s ti to eat.”
“Hmm,” Zhou Mikang responded without looking up.
Huh?
No outburst?
He had fled early yesterday, and Regintal Commander Zhou just let him off like that?
This…
sothing was off!
Big ti off!
Zhou Hanliang even felt that he was masochistic.
Did he need the Regintal Commander to yell at him, hit him, then transfer him to another regint to feel it was right?
He moved forward and placed the food box on the desk, and still, Zhou Mikang did not look up.
“Regintal Commander…” Zhou Hanliang stuttered, fearful of the Regintal Commander’s indifferent attitude towards him, “Regintal Commander, are…
are you still angry with ?”
“…”
After waiting for a while without a response, Zhou Hanliang shuffled his feet on the floor, feeling uneasy, “Regintal Commander, I promise I will never do sothing like that again.”
“…”
Still, no response!
Zhou Hanliang gritted his teeth, “Regintal Commander, since I’ve been with Doudou, I’ve increasingly felt that having a woman you constantly think about, having a woman you’re willing to share heart-to-heart conversations with, is especially…
especially great.
Seeing how you treat Lin Chuxia differently from other girls, I started plotting.
I admit, telling the Division Commander’s Wife was deliberate.
I just thought that if it were only pushing you, it probably wouldn’t be of much use, but if the Division Commander’s Wife could give you a push, maybe this thing could really happen.
I was just thinking, it’s so rare to co across a girl that catches the Regintal Commander’s eye, whatever it takes, we can’t just let it slip by.
However, I assure you, the Division Commander really didn’t know anything about this matter.
His involvent this ti was a true accident, also because he cares about you…”
Cut off by a cold glance from Zhou Mikang, Zhou Hanliang’s following words got stuck in his throat, his mouth gaping open, unable to close for quite a while…
There’s nothing wrong with his eyes, right?
What’s going on with Regintal Commander Zhou’s face?
Below the eye socket was bruised, the tip of the nose had a scratch, and there were bloodshot scratch marks on the brow and cheek—already scabbed over, but it was clear they were made with fingernails!
Zhou Mikang’s eyes flashed with discomfort, silently picking up the food box…
and started eating!
Snapping back to reality, Zhou Hanliang quietly moved back and sat down on the sofa, holding his food box, eating while stealing glances at Regintal Commander Zhou.
Who would dare to leave his face scratched like that?
The Division Commander’s Wife?
Not likely!
Well, it’s just not possible!
The Division Commander’s mother?
“`
Not a chance!
The Division Commander’s Wife?
Impossible!
Who else would have the guts?
Suddenly, the image of Lin Chuxia from their first eting, staring down Regintal Commander Tongzi and forcing him to apologize, popped into his head.
No…
could it be?
Zhou Hanliang sneakily glanced at Regintal Commander Tongzi, then took another look, finding it hard to imagine that his own fearso and powerful Regintal Commander Tongzi had actually been beaten by a girl who fainted after running five laps.
Although Zhou Mikang was looking down at his food, he caught every expression on Zhou Hanliang’s face, which only added to his discomfort.
After returning to the dormitory last night, he had to deal with cold compresses and dication for most of the night, yet his injury still looked as conspicuous the next morning.
That frail girl fought viciously!
But upon reflection, it wasn’t surprising; if it weren’t for her personality, she wouldn’t have left such a lasting impression on him the first ti they t.
Up to now, he had more admiration for her than anything else.
As for love…
In this lifeti, he might find it difficult to truly fall for a woman.
Why not marry a girl he admired?
But what would her final answer be?
She didn’t seem to think much of him, which left him sowhat uneasy about the outco in three days.
If he missed his chance with her, who knew when the next one would co.
He clutched at air with his chopsticks before suddenly snapping back to reality.
Instinctively, he looked at Zhou Hanliang, and their eyes t—Hanliang’s filled with a teasing smile.
Mikang imdiately scowled, “Is this little bit of food enough for anyone?”
Zhou Hanliang struggled to hold back a laugh, “How about I go get you another al box?”
“No need,” Zhou Mikang pushed the al box away and glanced at the ti.
“Get ready, let’s go.”
Zhou Hanliang’s eyes widened, “You’re still going?”
“Why so nosy?” Zhou Mikang frowned and glanced at him before walking out.
“Commander…” Zhou Hanliang anxiously grabbed him, a conflicted look on his face, “Your…
your face…
Shouldn’t you…
take so ti to heal?” After speaking, he instinctively shrank his neck.
He had overstepped.
Zhou Mikang stared at him intently for a mont before saying, “Want to know what happened to my face?”
Without a second thought, Zhou Hanliang quickly shook his head, “Not interested.”
“Really not interested?”
“Not interested!”
“Is that so?” Zhou Mikang’s eyes narrowed dangerously, “Are you sure?”
“I…” Zhou Hanliang tensed up, then quickly added, “Commander, next ti we spar, I definitely won’t cheat.”
“Hmm.” Zhou Mikang nodded, “Good to know.
Pack up, let’s leave.”
…
The dical team’s temporary training plan included morning exercises, scholarly lessons in the morning, and physical training in the afternoon.
A new training plan would be developed after half a month.
Following morning exercises, each mber holding a copy of ‘Human Anatomy,’ lined up and headed to the conference room, which served as their temporary classroom.
Once seated, Zeng ili briefly went over the classroom rules and left.
Whether it was just their imagination or not, Captain Zeng seed to leave with a haste that resembled escaping.
Waiting was boring.
Luo Xiaoqiong suddenly rembered a rumor she heard while going to the bathroom and nudged Chuxia, whispering, “I heard that Commander Zhou’s face was scratched by Instructor Zhou.”
“Cough!
Cough!
Cough…” Chuxia choked on her saliva.
Luo Xiaoqiong quickly patted her back, “This morning, soone saw Commander Zhou bruised and swollen, heading to the office.
Everyone thought his girlfriend had scratched him, but later, Instructor Zhou admitted that he challenged Commander Zhou and lost.
Not convinced, he took his chance and scratched Commander Zhou’s face when he wasn’t looking.
I always thought Instructor Zhou had a good temperant.
Who would’ve thought he could do such a shrewish thing?
Tsk tsk, looks like we should avoid provoking him.” She said, sneaking a sympathetic glance at Yun Doudou.
“Oh.” To conceal her emotions, Chuxia didn’t dare say much and just responded with an ‘Oh,’ without further comnt.
Luo Xiaoqiong pouted in displeasure, “Annoying, why have you beco so boring?”
Chuxia’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.
How could she find this situation amusing?
Poor Zhou Hanliang was taking the rap on her behalf.
She couldn’t clear his na, and joining others in saring him would make her inhuman, wouldn’t it?
It also proved that Zhou Hanliang and Zhou Mikang had a solid relationship—Hanliang was even willing to take the fall for sothing like this.
Tsk tsk…
Thinking of Zhou Mikang’s bruised and swollen appearance, Chuxia’s mood strangely improved.
Hmph, that’s for annoying , for being so arrogant.
Did he really think this Miss was so easy to provoke?
“Sorry to keep you waiting.” Accompanied by a rich baritone, Jing Zhe entered, smiling at everyone before standing on the podium, “Let introduce myself.
My na is Jing Zhe, and I’ll be studying with you all for the next while.”
