A story of mutual crushes and reuniting after a long separation, mainly set on campus. It's a sweet romance.

Su Xun falls in love with a boy, only to discover that the boy likes her too.<...

Chapter 74

After everyone was ready, Su Xun put on the hat that was beside him and said, "Is everyone ready? Let's go."

Seeing that everyone was standing still and just staring at her, she wondered if there was something wrong with her clothes. "What's wrong? Am I not dressed properly?"

She checked it again; the camouflage uniform had to be worn correctly, otherwise the instructor would pick her out and punish her.

Wen Yanyan spoke first, saying quietly, "Su Xun, what did you eat to grow up like this? Why are you still so beautiful even after removing your makeup?"

Liu Wei commented from the side, "Your current image is very similar to a character I saw in a game, both beautiful and cool."

Zhou Qin: "Yes, I was amazed when I first saw you yesterday."

Wen Yanyan: "If I had to choose a class beauty, I would definitely vote for Su Xun!"

"I feel a little embarrassed to receive so many compliments from you all first thing in the morning." She cleared her throat. "If I hadn't gone out, I would have been late."

Everyone then snapped out of their daze, grabbed their hats, and rushed towards the door.

Today is the first day of freshmen military training. The campus is full of little green men in camouflage uniforms walking around, which is quite a sight.

All the green dots on campus seemed to be heading towards the school. The first track and field stadium was already packed with people. Each class's assistants and the temporarily selected class leaders were using megaphones to call their students to line up. Only then did Su Xun see the faces of everyone in his class.

As soon as she appeared in the crowd, whispers began to circulate around her.

Since her photos were posted on the forum a couple of days ago, they have attracted everyone's attention. Now, anyone who has ever browsed the campus forum knows who Su Xun is.

I hadn't expected to become the talk of the school so early in the semester.

I never imagined I would have such a prominent day.

For nearly two hours, they gathered at the track and field, where school leaders took turns speaking about the upcoming two-week military training.

Those on top are very comfortable, while those on the bottom are suffering.

The sun at around 8 a.m. was so strong it could practically burn a hole in you.

Finally, just when they were about to give up, the opening ceremony ended, and the instructors led them to the designated training ground.

The students from the Chinese and Japanese departments were reluctant to leave the barren land.

As per tradition, the military training grounds for both the Chinese and Japanese departments are located at the second track and field stadium. This stadium is used for the school's simulated training camp's daily training. Every year after the military training, the school selects a group of students to enter the training camp for a year of intensive training, in order to select instructors for the following year's military training.

Although this field is called an athletic field, it doesn't have the facilities of an athletic field. Looking around, it's actually just an empty space covered with grass.

Because it was a training ground, the grass had long been trampled flat, leaving only yellow soil and weeds in the corners that hadn't been affected.

They couldn't believe that such an undeveloped area existed within the beautiful campus, which seemed to blend retro and modern styles.

Everyone in the crowd was shocked by the sight, but dared not openly complain, as they had been reprimanded by their instructors after the opening ceremony.

There was no reason given; it was just to establish authority.

They then realized that the senior students could not only be as warm and gentle as they were during the orientation days, but could also be so fierce and unreasonable.

Compared to high school military training, where everyone could persevere despite the fatigue, university is an even more intense version; they are tired but cannot keep going.

On the first day, a large number of them fainted and were admitted to the wounded and sick corps.

The next day, someone twisted their ankle and was admitted to the wounded and sick ward.

On the third day, someone... was admitted to the wounded and sick corps.

Then the wounded and sick corps quickly grew to a size of several hundred people.

Privately, everyone was saying that the senior students who came out of the simulation camp had been trained hard for a year, and their skills finally had a chance to be put to use, so they were "torturing" the freshmen.

Because they seem to have come up with a new game: standing at attention and reciting texts. The person chosen has to recite ***'s poems or military posture instructions in their entirety. If they can't recite them, they have to do push-ups as punishment.

Su Xun remembered that he was selected twice within half an hour one day, which was quite lucky.

However, in the later stages, these demons also became kind and mischievous, and would joke around with them.

Occasionally, several classes would sing together, which was one of their few forms of entertainment. The classes would compete to see who could sing the most military songs and who could shout the loudest.
