Chapter 706: The Captain Was Too Much

What Gu Mingzhe needed to do now was to let Zhong Qianqian return to the Nangong family and then let the Nangong family help the Gu family get out of their predicament. The rest was to get married and think of a way to get along with Nuannuan after they got married.

Right now, Nuannuan did not seem to like him much because of Zhong Qianqian.

It did not matter, though.

One day, he, Gu Mingzhe, would be able to soar to the sky. When that time came—when he became a second-tier wealthy family—he believed that Nuannuan would definitely realize who was the better one between Gu Mingzhe and the soldier, Chi Yang.

***

The next day, in the special forces team.

Everyone was undergoing rigorous training. On the field, all the soldiers in the special forces were performing difficult actions one after another without fail.

Ling Pinyuan had been observing Chi Yang’s expression. She expected Zhong Nuannuan to say something bad about her once she got back, so she wanted to see Chi Yang’s dissatisfied expression.

However...

None!

Chi Yang’s gaze was fixed on every soldier who was about to participate in the joint military exercise. Every time he glanced at her, he would only glance at her to see if she had completed her tasks. There was not even a hint of the knowing gaze that should have existed between a man and a woman, what more letting his gaze linger on her.

Ling Pinyuan was extremely disappointed.

She would rather Chi Yang call her aside and scold her than ignoring her like this.

Finally, when Ling Pinyuan was distracted, Chi Yang spoke.

“Ling Pinyuan, step forward.”

“Yes!”

Following Chi Yang’s shout, Ling Pinyuan responded loudly and stepped out.

“Your movement failed to reach standard completion. 20kg weight, ten thousand meters. Run!”

20kg weight and ten thousand meters???

Ling Pinyuan thought that she had heard wrongly.

After all, they usually trained with weights weighing 20kg and ran 5,000 meters. This was reserved for men too. Women usually ran 3000 meters while carrying 20kg of weight. They would rest for five minutes before running another 2000 meters.

However, Chi Yang made her run ten thousand meters!

When he saw that Ling Pinyuan did not move, Chi Yang’s expression darkened, and his usual grave expression became even more austere.

“Ling Pinyuan, are you resisting orders by looking at me like that?”

“Captain, I refuse!” Ling Pinyuan shouted loudly.

historical

The soldiers from the special forces team were shocked to hear that. They felt that Ling Pinyuan was too bold. They were very interested to see the consequences of her rebelling against the captain, but they did not dare to be careless in the movements that they were performing.

“You refuse?” Chi Yang’s austere face did not show any signs of anger.

“Tell me your reason.”

“Reporting to Captain, female soldiers have always been practicing 3,000 meters with a weight load of 20kg, but you made me run 10000 meters while carrying 20kg. I admit that I made a mistake earlier, but your punishment is too severe. You’re just using your official position to take personal revenge!”

Ling Pinyuan’s voice was very loud, so many of her comrades nearby heard her.

Personal revenge?

The Captain had a personal grudge against Ling Pinyuan? Had they not always been amicable with each other?

“I don’t think I have any personal connection with you. As for your punishment, if you complain and think it’s too heavy, from now on, you’ll have to run 15000 meters with 20kg of weight!”

“...!!!”

Ling Pinyuan’s face flushed red at hearing Chi Yang’s punishment. She was not afraid at all—her anger was more like the anger from a woman directed at the man who she liked. She shouted, “Captain, you’re too much! You’re treating your comrade like this just to avenge your girlfriend! I refuse to accept this!”
