After standing at the same spot for a long time, his assistant finally spoke up. “Major, isn’t it about time for us to head back as well?”
Duan Yanhao nodded his head. “Yes.”
Although he acknowledged his assistant’s statement, he did not move.
The assistant thought, “Could it be that this female soldier was someone special to the Major?”
All he knew was that this new recruit entered because of the Major’s recommendation, but for the past few days, the Major did not talk to that soldier at all.The strange thing was that the Major would spy on their training. At first, he thought that he was just observing the training situation in the army, but now that he thought about it, that wasn’t true. The Major was only watching a single person.
But as an assistant, he should not be such a busybody.
Even though he knew he shouldn’t be a busybody, he couldn’t help but want to find out more. After all, he had been by the Major’s side for over two years, and he had never seen a woman by his side, nor had he seen him get interested in anyone.
That was why when he saw the amount of attention the Major had on this soldier, he couldn’t help but be curious.
This new recruit did have a certain charm that impressed people. Perhaps one day, she would become the pride of all the female soldiers.
However, becoming a soldier was a difficult process, especially if they wanted to be an outstanding one. They had to go through even tougher training. He would look on and see how determined she was and how long she could persevere.
The Major would probably look over her during this period of time as well.Moreover, there was a test every month, so he hoped that she would be able to impress everyone.
If she were to become an exceptionally outstanding soldier, she would be part of the Major’s personally-led troops. Perhaps that would be more interesting.
The assistant suddenly felt that his days in the army wouldn’t be boring from now on.
Duan Yanhao stood there for a long while before he turned to leave.
After Bai Yaoyao returned to the barracks, she fell asleep on her bed. She woke up before the sun rose and showered before she started training again.
“Bai Yaoyao, you wake up so early to train?”
Bai Yaoyao looked at her bunkmate and smiled kindly, “Yes, I wish to do it to the best of my abilities.”
“Gosh, I was forced to join the army because of my father, so I’m just letting each day pass by. When I finally leave this place, I will be able to fly high without any restrictions. But I’ve never seen someone as serious as you before? Everyone is always resting after they wash up, waiting for breakfast to be served.”
“My dream is to become the most outstanding female soldier, so I have to work harder and cherish this chance.” Because she knew that she had never trained before, her physical condition was not as good as the rest. That was why she decided to train harder.
“I’ve never seen someone so serious, but seeing how hard you’re working, I suddenly feel like I’m too lazy. How about I join you in your next training?”
“Okay!”
…
Later, when she was returning from dinner, a soldier approached her quietly and informed her that the Major wished to see her.
Bai Yaoyao could only sit on the military car and go to Duan Yanhao’s quarters.
This was her first time meeting Duan Yanhao ever since she entered the camp. Clad in his uniform, he was exceptionally moving. Just by standing there, he created the most magnificent view, making it difficult for people to avert their gaze away from him.
Bai Yaoyao stood there and looked at him, not knowing what to say. Suddenly, it felt like they were worlds apart.
Duan Yanhao eventually sighed and walked to her side, pulling her closer to him.
Before Bai Yaoyao could recover from her trance, Duan Yanhao rolled up her sleeves and looked at the bruises on her elbow. He then gently applied some ointment on them.
