Chapter 1413: Awkward for a Woman
Ye Jian couldn’t help but smile when she heard that. She found out something about his past again… As she listened, she felt that it was actually happening around her.
There were too many traces of him in this school. She could even learn about his past from the teachers. For some reason, Ye Jian felt happier.
He had always been her goal. Now, she was walking along the path he had walked before, chasing after him step by step. And he was not far away, waiting for her to reach.
Ye Jian closed the photo alb.u.m and became the representative of the freshmen, becoming the flag bearer.
At this moment, the freshmen started the marching training. The marching training consisted of keeping pace, running, and marching. Marching was the best way to show a soldier’s valiance and vigor. The majestic aura could intimidate everyone and create a strong and shocking effect.
When Ye Jian went back, Cla.s.s Three was resting. Everyone was sitting under the sun and laughing until their shoulders were shaking.
Xu Wen and He Jing sat far away. They looked awkward. It was as if they had encountered something embarra.s.sing, they were uneasy.
When they saw Ye Jian walking over, the boys in the cla.s.s pursed their lips tightly again. They were laughing so hard that their internal organs hurt.
“What’s wrong?” Ye Jian didn’t know what was happening so she walked to her roommates. “There’s something wrong with the boys. Why are they laughing? What happened just now? The instructor isn’t here. Where did he go?”
Xu Wen covered her face and said with a m.u.f.fled voice, “Just now, when we were practicing keeping pace, the instructor said a mantra. The boys couldn’t hold their breaths and laughed. The instructor asked them to laugh for ten minutes then he will come over.”
“It’s so awkward for a woman like me to hear such a lecherous mnemonic.” He Jing fanned her hands unnaturally to cool off her burning face. “Fortunately, you weren’t here. If not, you would be embarra.s.sed too.”
Ye Jian didn’t know that there was a mantra for keeping pace. It was to display the posture of a soldier. Everyone stood upright with their legs straightened. Their footsteps were firm and powerful as they moved forward with a strong rhythm.
This was a very serious lineup. Why did it make the boys laugh and the girls feel awkward?
Although Xu Wen had a maternal grandfather who was a soldier, she grew up with her paternal grandparents who were professors. Although she was straightforward, she still had the temperament of a young girl. She was too embarra.s.sed to say it so she pushed He Jing. “Tell her, tell her. I really can’t open my mouth.”
Some of the boys stood up and moved their arms like they were keeping pace. Then, the boys laughed until they started pounding the lawn. They couldn’t laugh loudly and it was difficult to keep it in so they could only vent their frustrations with their physical strength.
Ye Jian’s eyes darkened. These boys are going to be punished.
They had to be serious and formal on training grounds. That was the only way to show the might of the soldiers. If they were laughing and hitting the ground at this time, the instructor might have left on purpose.
“It’s just a mantra. You don’t have to feel awkward. What’s a mantra? It only tells you to remember the trick of the action so that you can learn the key as soon as possible.” Ye Jian smiled and enlightened the two girls. “You have to differentiate between team training and physical training. During physical training, you have to shout loudly and be ambitious.”
“But it is a no during team training! We must be serious! All of you have seen the square formation during the National Day ceremony. It’s neat and orderly. The slogans were filled with killing intent and the military might was awe-inspiring. Who laughed? Who would laugh? No one would laugh! The only thing that comes out is the majestic aura of our army.”
The boys were still laughing. Under Ye Jian’s lead, the girls walked out of the awkwardness and even their seating postures became much proper.
