Chapter 257: This mouthful of dog food is enough to fill me up!
"Come on, come on, run faster. The last four will do extra sit-ups later!"
After standing in military posture for nearly the entire morning, Tan Na suddenly suggested thinking of an activity to help everyone stretch their muscles. The activity she came up with was two laps of long-distance running...
You should know that the large playground of Li Ning University is 600 meters long for one lap, and 1,200 meters for two laps.
Most of the girls here have only practiced the 800-meter race for their junior high school physical exams, and they all find it painful to run on the playground.
"My eyesight isn't very sharp, but luckily your school's playground is big enough. There are only two laps of 1,200 meters, so I can still tell who finished two laps and who was lazy and only ran one lap!"
Shouting at the top of her lungs on the playground, Tana instantly became the focus of the entire audience.
"What are you looking at? Stand up straight. If you can't stand straight, our company will immediately start running!"
Some onlookers were warned by their own instructors because they turned their heads to look at which female instructor was being so fierce.
"After these two laps, we'll disband!"
Tana anticipated that some girls at the back would give up and walk, so she told the last four people to practice for another ten minutes after they finished the run, in order to prevent those at the back from giving up too easily.
She planned to wait until everyone had finished running and then say that everyone had run well and no punishment would be imposed.
Xia Jinxi originally thought that she was quite capable and that a mere 1200 meters was no problem.
But after she finished her summer job, she seemed to have not done any serious exercise, and she had been standing in military posture for the whole morning...
After finally crossing the finish line and achieving her goal, Xia Jinxi felt so exhausted that she took a few steps off the track and sat down on the plastic turf.
"Dismiss! Have lunch!"
Now they were the only company running on the track in the playground. After all the girls had finished running, Tana loudly announced the disbandment without asking them to gather again.
"You've worked hard. Would you like some milk tea? Not too cold."
As soon as Xia Jinxi's team disbanded and she was about to stand up from the lawn and go to the cafeteria with Bai Die, she ran into Tang Yuze.
Then, Tang Yuze handed the cup of milk tea in his hand to Xia Jinxi.
Originally, Tang Yuze was planning to give the unfinished cup of milk tea in the bag to his sister, but he didn't expect that his sister was already staying with her roommate as soon as the Third Company of the Third Battalion was disbanded.
And seeing as they were sitting together on the plastic lawn, perhaps they were assigned to the same company?
So he handed the cup of milk tea that had not been taken out yet to Baidie, and gave the milk tea he had taken two sips of to his sister.
When she saw Tang Yuze handing her the milk tea, Bai Die wanted to refuse at first, but then Xia Jinxi whispered in her ear, "It's okay, I just like to have a drink with my brother," and she accepted it.
There is no doubt that drinking ice water after strenuous exercise is unhealthy, but the paradox is that most people will want to drink ice water after being hot for a long time even if they know it is unhealthy.
Fortunately, the two cups of milk tea that Tang Yuze brought had less ice. The ice cubes had melted, but the milk tea still felt cool to the touch. The temperature should be just right now.
"Thanks..."
Baidie took the milk tea but didn't rush to remove the straw. She needed to wait a little longer.
Xia Jinxi started drinking it directly.
"Don't sit there, get up and walk around."
Sitting down to rest immediately after strenuous activity affects the body's oxygen replenishment and can cause various adverse reactions. So no matter how tired you are after running, it is best to get up and walk around.
"I don't want to move..."
"Let me carry you, come on."
After pulling his sister up, Tang Yuze took her for activities.
The young man in a military cap who suddenly appeared in the group of girls and looked strong and heroic made people who happened to see him imagine a lot.
"Look at those two bastards over there."
"Wow, aren't we still training? How can someone buy milk tea from outside?"
"I'm not sure, maybe he's from the senior year?"
"The seniors nowadays are too much. They start to attack the junior girls so early. How can we freshmen survive?"
This is the speech from the boys' camp.
"Wow, why don't I have milk tea to drink and my boyfriend to support me after running? This is not fair!"
"No way, we don't have that kind of luck."
"What's the name of that senior? He's so handsome. Do you think I can have another chance with him?"
This is the speech from the girls’ military camp.
Just at this time, the instructor of the 3rd Company of the 2nd Battalion to which Tang Yuze belonged also looked over.
The instructors who come to the university to teach students are basically young guys between 20 and 30 years old, and basically all of them are single. It is rare to see a few beautiful female soldiers in the military camp. Now they have to face the love shows of college students as soon as they arrive at the school. It's really fucked up.
Of course, it is still possible for him to "take care" of Tang Yuze more.
Almost everyone at the scene thought that these were some junior and senior students chatting together at the beginning of the school year, but the people from the third company of the second battalion were more familiar with Tang Yuze and knew that he was actually a freshman.
On the first day of military training, Tang Yuze became the public enemy.
"So, where did you buy the milk tea?"
Xia Jinxi asked Tang Yuze.
Although the time when each company disbands may vary slightly, it is almost always around this time.
How come her brother came to see her after buying milk tea?
"Um... my roommate was exempted from military training and just brought me two cups of milk tea."
To be precise, it was Luo Mingcheng who got the leave application.
"My brother's roommate? Where is he?"
"See that big tree over there? That guy is taking shelter under the tree."
Tang Yuze pointed to a location next to the small gate of the playground a little further away, and Xia Jinxi and Bai Die both looked in the direction he pointed.
At this distance, they could only barely see a figure.
"Well...Brother Xiaoxi."
Bai Die, whose condition was even worse than Xia Jinxi's and whose nasal congestion was quite severe, came over.
"Just call me by my name."
"Well, classmate Tang Yuze, can I ask you something?"
"sure."
Bai Die said this very seriously, but because she was still panting after running, Tang Yuze couldn't hear the seriousness in her tone.
"I want to ask, have you and Xiao Xi... crossed the line?"
Bai Die said after thinking for a while.
She originally planned to ask Xia Jinxi directly after the training was over, but Tang Yuze happened to come at this moment, so she decided to ask him directly.
"Crossing the line? Crossing the line of what?"
Tang Yuze didn't react at first and didn't understand what she meant by crossing the line.
"It's just... Hey! Let me get this straight, are you two siblings dating?"
"Oh, you said this."
It seems that his Xiaoxi did not hide the other layer of relationship between them from her friends, but she did not explain it clearly.
"We are indeed dating, but don't get excited. She and I are not the forbidden love you imagine."
Since Tang Yuze was already explaining, Xia Jinxi concentrated on resting. After walking a few steps, she sat on the ground, closed her eyes and listened to the conversation between the two.
"what do you mean?"
"Xiao Xi and I are not siblings."
Tang Yuze seemed to feel that he might have to explain this issue to every person he met in the future, and it would gradually develop into something like the protagonist in a movie introducing himself every time he appeared on the stage.
"Not siblings?"
"Yes, a reconstituted family. There is no blood relationship between us."
"But even if that's the case, do your parents know about this?"
"Yes, they have agreed."
"That...!"
As she was asking questions, Baidie suddenly got stuck and didn't know what to say.
"Do you really agree?"
"Really? If you don't believe me, you can ask Xiao Xi again."
Bai Die turned her gaze to Xia Jinxi, who nodded slightly to her.
"so..."
It seems like Baidie can't do anything about them.
Although siblings are together, there should be many problems.
For example, Baidie herself has relatively traditional ideas, and she was somewhat unable to accept it after hearing it.
But they were not related by blood, and even their families had agreed. So what right did she, an outsider, have to make comments?
"I'm sorry, Xiaodie. I should have been the one to explain this to you, but the instructor just called us back to the team, so my brother had to do it for us."
Xia Jinxi clasped her hands together and apologized to Bai Die.
"It's okay. I was just a little surprised. To be honest, when I first saw Xiao Xi and your brother together, I felt that they were a little too close."
However, this is a bit like the situation in a romance novel she had read, in which a man and a woman became sworn siblings because of family changes, then healed each other's wounds, and became boyfriend and girlfriend as their feelings warmed.
What kind of magical realism is this?
"Yeah, my brother dotes on me so much, how could he have the heart to quarrel with me?"
"Hey, don't get carried away!"
"That's what it is."
Looking at the unconventional interaction between the brother and sister, Baidie could only sigh.
After a whole morning of military training, her stomach was rumbling.
After eating this mouthful of dog food, I feel full!
