Chapter 167 Cezar Perth
Wen Ni suddenly snapped back to reality, a self-deprecating smile playing on her lips. "The red of a rose is dyed with blood. And it is the thorns that make it so beautiful!"
“Since you’re so curious, Mr. Lu…” she said, slapping the PowerPoint presentation into his arms and slightly increasing the distance between them. “Get ready to be tortured for the next seven days!”
"I'll wait and see." Lu Jinye raised his hand to catch the falling manuscript, and coincidentally, he also caught her hand that she hadn't had time to pull back!
Her palm landed on his chest, and through the thin shirt, she could feel his heart beating!
Thump, thump, thump...
It seems to be speeding up a little?
"Master Lu! I found it!" Qin Yuan seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, a smile still on his face. "I found out the white man's identity. Wasn't I quick?"
"..."
Wen Ni swiftly pulled her hand back.
Lu Jinye's hand was still hanging in front of him, clutching a few scattered manuscripts. He slowly raised his eyes, looking at Qin Yuan with displeasure. "Fast, you are the fastest man in the world."
"...Mr. Lu, you can't say things like that!" Qin Yuan's face turned red. "Miss Wen Ni is still here!!"
"It's okay, she doesn't understand."
"Um?"
Wen Ni wanted to say that she could actually understand.
"Tell me, what did you find out?"
"That white man is called Caesar Perth, he's thirty years old, a Russian businessman who has been doing quite well in foreign trade in China in recent years. He's very wealthy! Other than that, there's nothing special about him."
"Is that so?" Wen Ni asked thoughtfully.
"Send some men to keep a close eye on Xize's movements," Lu Jinye said.
"Okay!" Qin Yuan stood still.
"Contact me immediately if anything seems amiss." Wen Ni stood up. "The car is waiting for me, so I'll head back to the unit now. See you on set!"
"good."
Lu Jinye watched her retreating figure, his eyes filled with tenderness...
The filming location for "The Brave Man" was arranged in the subordinate 357th Company.
9 a.m.
The bus carrying the participating celebrities and the filming crew passed through the guard checkpoint and drove into the No. 1 training ground of the 357th Company.
Led by Lu Jinye, the group of six stood in a neat row.
Instructor Liu Shu was standing in front of them, wearing a brown-green training uniform, the tight short sleeves of which couldn't even cover his muscular physique!
Xiwen stared, completely mesmerized.
If the camera hadn't been pointed at her, she probably would have had to wipe away her embarrassing drool...
"Welcome to our 357th Hero Company! I am your instructor, Liu Shuzheng!"
"Good morning, instructor!"
"Once you've entered the military gates, you're soldiers. You must abide by the military's requirements in everything you do!" Liu Shuzheng said loudly, then picked up a stack of training uniforms and placed them in front of them!
"You have one minute to change your clothes!"
"Huh? One minute?"
While Xiwen was still in surprise, Liu Shuzheng's timer had already started counting down!
"The last person to finish putting it on has to do ten push-ups!"
"What?! I don't know how to do push-ups!?"
Amidst the commotion, a minute quickly passed.
Apart from Lu Jinye, who dressed the fastest and most properly, the others could only be described as 'putting on'.
Especially Xiwen, she wore her top and jacket inside out!
"Xiwen, do ten squats! Finish them right now!"
"Huh??"
Before Xiwen's mind could process it, her body had already obeyed the command and begun to carry it out.
The training proceeded in an orderly manner.
As dusk fell and the setting sun cast its glow, an officer walked over from a distance. He stood by and watched for a while before turning and heading towards the military building with a box of cake in his hand.
Office of the 357th Company Building
Near the window, bathed in the glow of the sunset, Wen Ni sat at the table, writing furiously.
She already had a thick stack of papers on hand, the handwriting strong and powerful, with a unique style of hers!
A small box of cakes landed on top of her table.
"Leng Feng, what brings you back?" She knew who it was without even looking up, and wrote the last word with her pen: "Not planning to slack off, are you back to continue training?"
"I went to 77515 because of you, boss. Now that you're not there anymore, what am I still doing there? I might as well come back and train the troops!"
As Leng Feng opened the box of small cakes, he glanced sideways at what Wen Ni was writing. "Boss, what are you writing? Why are you so focused?"
"Training reports are just things to get by with the higher-ups." Wen Ni stretched her limbs and then asked, "Did you come from the training ground?"
"yes."
Leng Feng rolled his eyes, then sat down opposite Wen Ni, his face brimming with undisguised gossip. "Boss, do you want to ask how the show recording went? Or do you want to ask... how Lu Jinye's training went?"
You can answer whichever one you like.
Wen Ni shot a sharp glare at Leng Feng, then picked up a piece of cake and put it in her mouth.
"Well, Lu Jinye's overall abilities are much stronger than those minor celebrities! It's just that his physical strength is relatively weak. He looked a bit weak after being out in the wind and sun all day." Leng Feng said while secretly glancing at Wen Ni's expression!
Wen Ni's expression remained indifferent, without the slightest change.
She slowly put the last piece of cake into her mouth before picking up the landline and making a call.
"Hey? Shuzheng, talk to the film crew and let them rest for a while, stop practicing here for now."
"Okay, bye-bye."
After hanging up the phone, she looked up and met Leng Feng's meaningful gaze.
"Why did you stop practicing? I never expected our heartless boss to feel sorry for people like this! If that kid Fengsui finds out, he'll be heartbroken!"
"Feeling sorry for you? What are you thinking?"
Wen Ni blinked her cold eyes and shook her finger. "A short rest is for better extra training!"
"Huh?" Leng Feng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something. "Wait, you're not going to... fail, are you? Boss? After all, they're used to being pampered and have never experienced hardship. They can't handle you torturing them like this, can they?"
"No matter who they are, once they enter the military, they should all be treated equally!" Wen Ni shoved the cake box into Leng Feng's hand, giving him the order to leave. "Alright, don't bother me while I'm writing my report."
"oh."
Just as Leng Feng was about to leave, he looked down at the empty box and his face instantly fell. "No, boss, you didn't leave me a single piece of cake!?"
"If you keep talking nonsense, you'll stay and write my report."
"Hello, boss! Goodbye, boss!"
Leng Feng vanished in a flash.
On the training field
The film crew has suspended filming.
Lu Jinye sat alone on the grass to rest. His face was slightly pale, and the hair on his forehead was wet with sweat and stuck to his head.
Li Shu and Xi Wen sat together, gazing in Lu Jinye's direction for a long while.
"Brother Lu is really amazing! He can perfectly replicate all the demonstrations the instructors gave!"
“His family is all in the military, so he must have been exposed to this kind of thing since he was a child. What’s so strange about that?” Cai Wenyou turned his face away and snorted coldly.
Beside her, Xiwen rubbed her sore wrists. "Shall we stop practicing here for today? When can we eat?"
"I don't know, the instructor didn't say." Li Shu turned to Xi Wen and whispered, "Although today was tiring, the training was manageable. The training these special forces teams do isn't that difficult. I knew they wouldn't make things too hard for us..."
Just as they were feeling relieved, a loud bang was heard!
A military green SUV sped up and screeched to a halt right in front of them!
The film crew, who were resting, were taken aback when they saw this.
They then quickly raised their cameras, aimed them at the military vehicle, and began recording within seconds!
Military off-road vehicles have no canopy or doors.
A female officer dressed in jungle combat uniform jumped off the vehicle!
