Chapter 114: Aren’t You Dumb?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Ye subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth and acted casually. “It’s nothing, I accidentally fell.”

Gu Yan was speechless. “Captain Lu, how did you fall? Only the corner of your mouth is affected… Did you bump into someone’s teeth while kissing?”

Lu Ye: …

There was no one around. Upon hearing the accusations of his wife, he couldn’t sit still anymore.

“Nonsense!” Lu Ye’s ears were burning. He glared at the girl beaming cheekily before him.

She was too bold. How could she mention kisses so casually… He didn’t even get to kiss her lips yet!

“If you don’t want to tell me, never mind.” Gu Yan shrugged her shoulders and was about to return to her dormitory. She would study some more.

Lu Ye quickly grabbed her wrist and then declared proudly, “I beat Lin Haoran up.”

Gu Yan didn’t respond.

Lu Ye insisted, “Really, I just got a little bruise on my mouth, but that bastard’s eye sockets ended up black!”

At this moment, Lu Ye laughed like a big child. Gu Yan didn’t know what to say, but her heart felt warm.

She smiled softly. “Aren’t you dumb?”

“… No one has called me dumb before.” Captain Lu was a little offended. He touched his nose. “Gu Yan, you’re the second, and the first is you too.”

Gu Yan reached out her hand. Green light swirled around her finger as she gently rubbed the bruise on Lu Ye’s mouth.

“The next time you beat someone up, remember to not hurt yourself.” When she saw that a major portion of the bruise had faded, she continued, “I would feel hurt too.”

Lu Ye: …

When Gu Yan’s figure finally disappeared, Captain Lu still felt lightheaded.

Her words tickled his heart like a soft feather.

It felt itchy, warm, and tender.

Lu Ye remembered the kiss at the infirmary. It was sweet, deeply engraving itself in his memory for a long time.

He touched his mouth. It didn’t feel painful at all.

‘This must be the power of love!’

The days in the training camp passed by rapidly. Twenty days were gone just like that.

Tomorrow, the major competition will commence. The soldiers of the different departments were eager to compete.

Shen Nana blocked Xu Yue’s path and smiled. “Xu Yue, let’s chat privately.”

Xu Yue knew Shen Nana but wasn’t familiar with her. She frowned and was a little hesitant.

Shen Nana’s eyes flashed with jealousy. “I have something, it’s about Gu Yan. I want to know more from you.”

“…Okay.”

During the midday break, the two went to an empty corner.

Xu Yue asked, “What do you want to say, Shen Nana?”

“It’s said that the Logistics Department is formidable. However, I don’t want them to win. I don’t want Gu Yan to win. Do you have any way to prevent it?”

The Logistics Department who were usually at the very bottom in the previous years were abnormally hard-working this time.

Some people say this could be attributed to Lu Ye training them. Regardless, they might turn the tables this time.

Shen Nana hated Gu Yan. Her platoon leader, Xu Wenjuan, was rivals with the logistics platoon leader, Han Jiao.

Xu Yue fell silent for a while and said, “In terms of singing, your Arts Department should be fine. The outcome of the cross-country running is uncertain. Team competition is rather unpredictable as well. However, in shooting… According to what I know, no female soldier can beat Gu Yan currently.”

Shen Nana’s face fell briefly, but she smirked in the end. “Then, make her unable to participate in the shooting match tomorrow!”
