47 Who Exactly Are You? (1/2)
When she worked at 'Fu Rong' that day, she still couldn't shake the uncomfortable feeling. She even made several mistakes that didn't go unnoticed by the others. The workers never saw the young mistress distracted like this, but they didn't dare to say anything.
Xiao Yu asked her several times, but she dismissed Xiao Yu's concern with a laugh. She didn't want to make the others worry because of something that she didn't know for sure. She had to tell Yao Ying. He was the only one that she trusted.

Yao Ying spent the day learning the basic just like other soldiers. He followed their morning routine. While the others were perfectly fine, Yao Ying was panting crazily. Although his foundation was good, the fact that he never trained his body made his current situation understandable. Experienced martial arts masters had to train every day to maintain and improve their skills. Yao Ying lost his memories for three months and he just trained randomly without the right method, this fact made his stamina level decrease.
General Lin explained this beforehand, so Yao Ying understood the concept perfectly. Although he felt like dying, he didn't complain and did all the challenge that was thrown to him. The other soldiers knew how hard it was at the beginning, but Yao Ying could do it all – albeit slower and far from perfect. Most of the soldiers could only finish halfway at the beginning! This made Yao Ying gain respect from the other soldiers.
General Lin followed Yao Ying's movement from the beginning to the end and he felt satisfied. He was indeed talented and his skill had been polished quite nicely. Yao Ying only needed guidance because he lost his memories.
After finished practicing, Yao Ying was called by General Lin. ”I want you to follow the soldiers' drills until I'm feeling satisfied with your stamina. It means no more panting after you finish all the drills. After that, I will teach you personally. I need to shape up your body first, so it can adjust perfectly with your inner strength. Otherwise, your body will be harmed.”
”I understand.”
”Good. Now, I need to ask you another important question.”
”Yes, General?”
”How was it?”
”The drill? I enjoyed doing it, although it was pretty hard.” Yao Ying answered honestly.
”That's not what I was talking about.”
Yao Ying furrowed his eyebrows. That wasn't what he meant? Then, what was that about? The general didn't specify anything, so he was feeling a bit confused.
”Did you enjoy yourself last night? Did you follow my advice?”
Yao Ying gaped at this shameless general. He really asked the question without batting eyelashes. ”General… I have to go home first. I have to work.” After he bade goodbye, Yao Ying quickly ran away in embarrassment. He didn't bother to answer the general's question.
Lin Zheng laughed out loud, looking at Yao Ying's expression. In a flash, his expression changed back into his aloof one. ”Xiao Qi.” In a flash, a young man in his twenty appeared. He had a soft temperament with a quite beautiful face. He wore an all black clothes with a small 'Lin' emblem on his right breast. He was General Lin's hidden guards' leader.
”Yes, General.”
