Chapter 04: Physical Examination

When Xiao Jing was about to enter her room after taking a shower, she almost got frightened to death due to a certain person who suddenly emerged inside her room.

Why is that every time she sees Captain Lian Qing, she has this feeling of being scrutinized with the way he looks at her? Is his pair of peach blossom eyes too vulgar?

Yes, that"s right. That must be it!

“Where have you been?” Lian Qing heard the movement behind him, so he turned back, and looked at the figure that"s still standing motionless at the door of the room. He hurriedly stepped forward, and asked, “Did you take a shower?”

Xiao Jing felt embarra.s.sed and threw aside the underwear that she changed from after bathing, and tried to s.h.i.+ft the sensitive topic as she asked, "What does captain came here for?"

Lian Qing looked around and made sure that there was no outsider inside the room before he cautiously closed the door. Then, he sat down on a chair.

Xiao Jing knitted her eyebrows and frowned. She, yet again, allowed this man to smoke inside her own room.

After smoking a cigarette, Lian Qing  prudently said, “Today, your performance made me very surprised.”

Xiao Jing blinked and lightly coughed as she reasoned, “It was probably because I wasn"t able endure the other person"s questioning eyes. After all, the blood that runs inside my veins is that of the Xiao Family.”

“Therefore, I am going to let you enter the special forces team,” declared Lian Qing.

“…” What did he just say?! What had she done?! Why did the conversation suddenly turned into this?! When did she say she was going to the special forces team?!

‘With my thin and weak body, are you sure that you are not sending me there to become a laughingstock?!"

Lian Qing extinguished the cigarette b.u.t.t. His despise on worldly conventions in the past vanished, and earnestly said, “This time, the military division opened a back door for us. They deliberately arranged to choose an outstanding soldier from our camp to enter the elite special forces. I am very optimistic about you.”

“Captain, I think this opportunity is more suitable for you.”

“Hhha! Your name has already been reported. I am just here to inform you about it. You have performed well within these two days and tried to make a good impression in front of the superiors.” Lian Qing patted Deputy Xiao Jing"s shoulder, and wring her"s wrists while putting on a warrior look on his face.

As Xiao Jing looked up, she saw four characters from the depths of his eyes that says: Strive for more fortune!

‘Oh, he actually wants to push myself out as a s.h.i.+eld." Of course, his men are all hedonistic sons who are just here to eat, so who would have the ability to dare and enter the special forces team?!

‘What they"re doing to me now, isn"t this what people call oppression?"

“Xiao Jing, for the glory of our 525th battalion, I will be conducting your training starting today. This way, when you report to the special forces team next week, you could leave each and every one of them in awe till their eyeb.a.l.l.s come out.” Lian Qing placed both of his hands on her shoulder and then noticed something so he asked, “What are you wearing in your vest? Why is it bulging?”

“…” Xiao Jing"s big eyes suddenly opened wide. Just a moment ago, the cold water upset her and after that event, she had forgotten to tie that piece of white cloth around her chest.

Lian Qing"s hand slowly moved downwards, and when his hand was only one centimeter away from the position of heart, Xiao Jing knocked off his hand.

Without a change in her facial expression, Xiao Jing said, “Captain, I will not disappoint you. Starting today, I will practice all the fundamentals with great intensity and strive to achieve glory and honor for our 525th battalion.”

“Good. Sure enough, Comrade Xiao Xiao is really worthy of this captain"s favor.” Lian Qing rubbed Xiao Jing"s head and thought: Why is this little guy"s stature a little short? Is it because I have always kneaded this head from time to time in the past two years?

“Captain.”

“En?”

“Don"t touch my head just like you"re stroking a dog"s head.”

Lian Qing withdrew his hand and laughed heartily as he raised his head. “Take a good rest for now. At two o"clock, a.s.semble in the drill ground.”

When the captain left, the room finally became quiet again. Xiao Jing sat on the bedside, and wrapped a long white strip of cloth around her chest.

“Knock. Knock.” The sound of knocking on the door was once again heard and the next moment, the person at the other side directly pushed open the door.

“Shoot!” Xiao Jing didn"t have enough time to put on her coat, so she drilled herself into the quilt. She"s grinding her teeth while glaring at a certain someone whom she did not invite to come in.

Mu Xichi halted his footsteps as he was glared at by the other person"s sharp eyes. His sight fell on to the quilt covering the other party before he started talking. “Second Lieutenant Xiao, are you preparing to take a midday nap?”

Xiao Jing did not dare to move as her body turned stiff inside the quilt. She forced a smile before asking, “What matter does senior officer have for this soldier?”

Mu Xichi didn"t answer but instead circled around the room twice. He has to say that the treatment towards this soldier is pretty good. Really worthy of bearing the name with a famous background. Everyone knows that each and every soldier inside this courtyard is a child of the big shots in the capital.

“Sir, do you have something important to say to me?” Xiao Jing held her quilt tightly, fearing that the other person is currently trying to figure out how to s.n.a.t.c.h the quilt away from her body. She couldn"t imagine her reaction if her white and glowing skin will be exposed after her quilt was robbed off. But for sure, the other person"s expression would be more wonderful and brilliant as compared to a person who looked like he had eaten s.h.i.+t.

Mu Xichi threw his gaze on top of Xiao Jing"s body, and his eyes just happened to see a long bandage under the quilt and curiously asked, “What is that thing?”

Xiao Jing followed his line of sight and her heart suddenly stagnated. She forced both of her hands to grab the long white bandage back into the quilt, and then smiled bitterly as she replied, “My legs and feet aren"t a little bit agile so I used it to bind them.”

“Aren"t you feeling hot?” Mu Xichi pointed at Xiao Jing"s forehead and said, “You seem to be sweating.”

“I don"t feel hot. This is a good method for the body to detoxify.” Xiao Jing closed her eyes to indicate her refusal to continue with the conversation. “If senior officer has nothing else to say, I wish to take my midday nap.”

Mu Xichi nodded. “Captain Lian recommended your name. I came to tell you that our captain will personally conduct your physical examination. This is an essential procedure if you want to enter the special forces team.”

“What kind of physical examination?” Xiao Jing doesn"t know why her mind is quite restless after hearing this.

Mu Xichi answered without hesitation, “One-on-one, close combat training.”

“…”

“Be courageous. Anyway, we"re not going to leave this world alive, isn"t it?” The corners of Mu Xichi"s mouth raised as if he was rejoicing in other people"s misfortune.

“…” Suddenly, Xiao Jing wished to die and wanted to withdraw from being the sacrificial lamb of the 525th battalion.

“We all went through that step. You need not be afraid. Although the captain is quite fierce, he will never kill you. You will only need to lie down on bed for several months.”

“Sir, can I choose to abstain?”

Mu Xichi shook his head and said, “If these words that you spoke before me right now was said in front of the captain, I think you will be beaten miserably.”

“…” Xiao Jing suddenly thought of those eyeb.a.l.l.s resembling a pair of icicles. If those icicles fall down on her body, even if the other party wouldn"t do anything to get rid of her, she would certainly be jabbed with a few holes.
