Chapter 210 - Handsome Instructor (2/2)

Qiao Nan felt perplexed at everyone’s enthusiasm. Yesterday, when Zheng Lingling and the rest of them asked her about her relations.h.i.+p with Zhu Baoguo, there was a little disdain in their tone, as if they were sounding her out. Yet, they appeared to be infatuated when they saw the instructor today. Was that alright?

“Good morning, my surname is Zhou. From today onward, I will be your instructor.” Instructor Zhou saluted the students of cla.s.s one in a serious and formal manner. When he saw Qiao Nan, his eyes lit up.

“?” Qiao Nan who did not have a close look at the instructor heard his voice and found it familiar as if she had heard it before.

Qiao Nan looked up and took a closer look. She almost choked. Instructor Zhou was the son of Zhou Bing who stayed in the same hospital ward as Qiao Dongliang half a month ago. She had called him Brother Zhou back then.

They were acquaintances!

“The instructor is looking in this direction, smiling! His teeth are brilliantly white, and his smile is so beautiful. Who is he smiling at?”

When Zhou Jun saw Qiao Nan, he curled the corner of his lips. Although he did not break out in a big smile, his tanned face made his teeth appear to be particularly white. This slight smile of his did not go unnoticed by the female students who watched his every move!

When he heard the speculation, Zhou Jun quickly recovered and maintained a stern face. “Quiet. The first thing you must learn in military training is to maintain silence. In the army, you must maintain absolute discipline. Without the approval of the instructor, you are not supposed to make any comments or actions. Understand?!”

“Yes.”

“Understood.”

The group of students responded lazily, not in unison.

Zhou Jun frowned. His jet-black eyes which caught all of the students’ attention now gave off a ferocious look. The students of cla.s.s one did not dare to fool around. “Did you hear what I said?!”

“Yes!” This time, the students from cla.s.s one answered very neatly in unison.

As soon as Zhou Jun put on a stern expression, the students in cla.s.s one did not dare to play around. “Okay, now we shall start the military training. If there are any questions during the training, one must ask for approval to speak or act. Understand?!”

“Understood!”

The Indian summer in September was still very scary. The sun was scorching hot on the body. Fortunately, the camouflaged uniform had long pants and long sleeves. Although one would not suffer sunburn, it was particularly stuffy and hot.

It had only been more than an hour and many of the students were drenched in perspiration, their s.h.i.+rts plastered to their back.

Zhou Jun looked at Qiao Nan from time to time to check whether she was fine. When he noticed that Qiao Nan’s cheeks had turned red, her hair wet and plastered to her face—that she was drenched in perspiration to the point of having difficulty keeping her eyes opened, Zhou Jun said, “Let’s have a ten-minute break.”

“Phew…” Qiao Nan let out a long breath. Even though they had just finished training, her legs feeling so tired as if they were lead, she did not dare to sit down. Instead, she walked a few steps before leaning against a tree and sipped at her water, hydrating herself.

“Very good, some students are very experienced. When you are tired after exercises, don’t sit down right away. You may also feel very thirsty, but you must not gulp down your water. It is better to take small sips.” There was a hint of praise in Zhou Jun’s eyes. This was the first time he taught students, but he had trained a lot of new recruits.

The new recruits who just entered the army were mostly fools who did not have common sense. They had to teach and guide them along the way.
