A powerful, spirited chorus startled Xie Changning.
She truly hadn't expected these young soldiers to salute her. Flustered, she returned the gesture. "Hello there, hello..."
As she did, she made sure to fix her gaze on Yue Yihan, her eyes carrying a clear warning.
Sensing the look from his partner, the satisfaction on Yue Yihan's face vanished instantly. He barked, "What do you think you're doing? Why aren't you training? All of you, ten-kilometer run with full packs! Now!"
"Yes, sir..."
The young soldiers, full of vigor just a moment ago, instantly deflated like wilted greens. Heads hung low, they trudged off one by one to begin their run.
Yue Yihan came over to Xie Changning and naturally took the bag from her hand.
"Did you get carsick? Are you feeling dizzy?" Yue Yihan noticed Xie Changning looked a bit pale. Worried she might have motion sickness, he immediately checked on her.
Xie Changning shook her head. "I'm fine, just a little tired."
