Chapter 1494: The Selection. A Good News
“Cough, cough! Haha, it’s fine, it’s fine! The young lady is cool!” Princ.i.p.al Ma grinned embarra.s.sedly, looking quite young himself, as he looked at Yun Jian like he admired her a lot.
Princ.i.p.al Ma was a funny man. He was Min City Military School’s princ.i.p.al but he did not usually stay in school because not only was he a princ.i.p.al, he was also in the military.
Yun Jian refused to shake hands with the princ.i.p.al but that did not mean that she had ill feelings about him. Each person expressed their feelings in different ways; Yun Jian simply did not have the habit to shake hands nor did she like shaking hands with males.
That was the simple reason why she had rejected the handshake.
Princ.i.p.al Ma was a smart man. He did not feel awkward hearing what Yun Jian said but smiled at her. He took a pause before telling her, “It’s thanks to you this time. If it weren’t for you…”
Princ.i.p.al Ma wanted to say more to thank Yun Jian but the latter cut him off.
“It was just to save my dad, so you don’t have to thank me.” Yun Jian did not mean anything by saying this—she had really gone just to save Ge Junjian.
“Cough, cough! Haha! I understand. But uh… you’ve still contributed a great merit!”
This was the first time Princ.i.p.al Ma was chatting to a student so kindly. Even when Yun Jian was quite blunt, she meant no harm, so Princ.i.p.al Ma talked to her warmly.
The scene felt unbelievable to the teachers in the office. There were also drillmasters around but most of them were currently tuning in to the conversation between Princ.i.p.al Ma and Yun Jian.
“Cough, cough! Right, Yun Jian, Princ.i.p.al Ma actually has an urgent matter to talk to you about this time. It’s… Why don’t we talk about it elsewhere?” Yu Shaoluo spoke up when the atmosphere felt a little awkward.
...
“Mn, let’s speak outside,” Yun Jian replied with a nod, knowing that certain topics were unsuitable to be brought up in front of others, especially when there were teachers in the office.
Hence, Yun Jian, Princ.i.p.al Ma and Yu Shaoluo left the office.
…
Yun Jian, Princ.i.p.al Ma and Yu Shaoluo stood at one of the pa.s.sages in a certain garden in school.
Not many people came around here and students did not usually hang out here during breaks. The garden was actually closer to the teacher’s dormitory, so some teachers would go through the garden as a shortcut to reach the cla.s.srooms faster.
“Go ahead if you have something to tell me,” Yun Jian said lightly looking up at Princ.i.p.al Ma and Yu Shaoluo as she stood before them.
Normally, a student standing before the princ.i.p.al and drillmaster should be too scared to look up at the two latter figures, but when it came to Yun Jian, why did it look like she was the princ.i.p.al while Princ.i.p.al Ma and Yu Shaoluo were the students?
“Cough, cough. Xiao Yu, you go,” Princ.i.p.al Ma asked Yu Shaoluo to explain it for him.
“Okay! This is the case. Princ.i.p.al Ma has heard about what you did and in addition to your impressive performance all this while, he’s agreed to let you join the selection of Country Z’s Special Forces to the hunting school.”
“You must already know what kind of place the hunting school is and with the high casualty rate of the school, we don’t simply send anyone there.”
“Country Z’s Special Forces will have a selection before they’re chosen to go. There will be two cla.s.ses with over a hundred Special Forces soldiers joining the selection. The top three will then officially represent Country Z to the hunting school.”
“Initially, you’ll have to enter the elite cla.s.s and be observed to see if you qualify to join the selection but Princ.i.p.al Ma thinks you’re outstanding, so he plans to make an exception and let you join the selection this year.”
“As for whether you’ll be chosen to represent Country Z to the hunting school, it’ll depend on your own abilities.”
