The squad leader was sweating profusely. He never smiled during training with the deputy regimental commander, and if he did, things would get really bad.

Sure enough, the next second, their deputy commander's face turned cold: "You run ten laps right now! If you don't finish within fifteen minutes, you'll be punished with ten more laps!"

The new recruits were all sweating for their squad leader. They wanted to plead for him but didn't dare to. How could they possibly run ten laps in fifteen minutes on such a big parade ground? This was practically a punishment of running twenty laps. If it happened to them, they would be half dead.

"What, you all have something to say?" Xiang Hengxi looked down and glanced around at the group of people who were kneeling on the ground.

They all immediately shook their heads, fearing that they would be implicated.

"Then hurry up and do it! Everyone, count yourselves!" Xiang Hengxi ordered, then shouted, "Louder! Haven't you eaten yet?!"

Suddenly, a chorus of voices announcing numbers rang out.

Jing An'an watched her squad leader run off into the distance, pursed her lips, and felt that she had dragged him into this mess. She stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the deputy regimental commander, it was my fault just now. If anyone should be punished, it should be me."

Xiang Hengxi looked at her tense face, her face was as red as a sweet potato after running, and her features were somewhat indistinguishable, but you could vaguely see that she was pretty.

He didn't speak, but carefully examined her. By his precise estimation, she was about 1.58 meters tall and weighed no more than 90 kilograms. She was thin and small, wrapped in a large camouflage military uniform, like a child wearing an adult's clothes.

Under his scrutiny, her trouser legs, which she had just rolled up, slipped down again, making her look utterly ridiculous.

Ha, he looks so frail, yet he dares to argue with him.

"This is the army. You only need to remember four words: obey orders!" Xiang Hengxi couldn't stand seeing her legs still shaking after running, as if she was about to collapse at any moment. So delicate and weak, she should be at home embroidering, what is she doing causing trouble in the army?

With a stern face, he continued, "Since you're so eager to share the burden, go run ten laps right now. If you can't keep going, Squad Leader Chen will add another ten laps as punishment."

Jing An'an frowned. The last lap and a half had almost killed her; she couldn't imagine running ten laps.

She didn't move, staring wide-eyed at Xiang Hengxi, her face tense: "Reporting to the deputy regiment commander, the commander's order means that our group is to assist the 309th Regiment in carrying out electronic counter-reconnaissance missions, and we don't need to undergo high-intensity physical training."

Ha, he actually dared to talk back and challenge his authority.

Xiang Hengxi raised an eyebrow, stood in front of her, and remained silent, as if simply watching her quietly.

However, this has already created a huge sense of pressure. At least when the teammates who were doing push-ups saw it, they couldn't help but worry about this outspoken little woman.

However, Jing An'an simply kept a blank face, expressionless, staring straight ahead, as if he wasn't standing in front of her.

"Did the commander's order say anything about you disobeying your superior's orders and showing no respect for military discipline?" Xiang Hengxi said, his voice cold and stern. "The 309th Regiment doesn't need a weakling, whether mentally or physically! If you don't follow military discipline, leave the 309th Regiment immediately!"

Jing An'an pursed her lips, feeling that today was truly an unlucky day, as she had run into this fierce god.

She grew up surrounded by praise, and even when she joined the army, she was recruited through special talent recruitment. The superiors were very kind to her, but who knew this guy would be so ruthless.

She cannot be transferred, otherwise the word "deserter" will be branded on her future career.

"Run or not run!" Xiang Hengxi asked her excitedly.

"Run!" Jing An'an shouted.
