Chapter 96 Peking University Military Training
Seeing through Shen Sisi's intentions, Song Ci chose to keep a distance from her again. This was good for both of them, and he responded casually.
"The book has been completed and will be published in September."
Just then, noticing the roommates passing by to get their military training uniforms, Song Ci said quickly without waiting for Shen Sisi to speak again, "Sisi, it's too hot, go back to the dormitory and rest, I'm going to get my uniforms, we'll talk another day when we're free."
After saying that, he caught up with Lin Hao and the other two, leaving Miss Shen alone in the sunlight.
Shen Sisi could do nothing about Song Ci's lack of understanding of romance. Apart from his good looks and talent, perhaps she liked his loyalty to love.
Perhaps, it is not a bad idea to be a pair of close friends!
Shen Sisi looked at Song Ci's receding back and her heart began to waver for the first time. However, she was unwilling to give in. She didn't know whether to continue to insist or let go. She was confused and lost!
At six o'clock the next morning, when the golden sunlight of August filled the earth, the shore of Weiming Lake was quiet.
All the students of Class 2004 of Peking University, wearing camouflage uniforms, are ready to go to the training base to officially start their two-week military training.
In the large parade ground of the military training base, the bright red military flag fluttered in the summer breeze and looked particularly solemn in the morning light. The students lined up in neat and orderly formations, with expectations and challenges flashing in their eyes.
On the podium, the school leaders were mobilizing for the start of the training, repeatedly emphasizing that Peking University students must recognize the importance of military training, and that any student who has not undergone military training or has failed the training will not be allowed to graduate.
This made the few people who were planning to pretend to be sick and take leave suddenly face the reality and no longer dare to take chances and cheat.
Song Ci was wearing a dark green military uniform. He was tall, handsome and imposing. He stood out in the crowd and attracted the attention of the girls in the finance class and the accounting class next door.
"Old Four, they are all secretly looking at you!"
In such a solemn occasion, Lin Hao couldn't control his mouth. He gently touched Song Ci, who was standing on his right, with his arm, and yawned while whispering a joke.
Song Ci glanced at Fatty Lin and squeezed out two words: "Shut up."
Fearing that Lin Hao would be singled out by the instructor as an example, Lu Yugang lowered his voice and reminded him, "What a fuss! Is this your first day meeting Lao Si? The instructor is patrolling nearby, Fatty, you should say less. If you are caught, you will be punished."
During military training, classes were changed into companies, and Song Ci's class 04 Finance was numbered as the Second Company of the First Regiment.
The second company’s military training instructor was named Wang. He was a strong veteran with dark skin, a loud voice and an upright posture.
From his self-introduction, everyone knows that Instructor Wang is the squad leader of a certain unit's wireline class. He has been awarded the second-class merit once and is an excellent old squad leader.
Song Ci looked at Instructor Wang's face and felt that he must be hot-tempered and could not tolerate any sand in his eyes. Such people are usually strict and responsible.
During these two weeks at the base, Song Ci didn't want to offend the instructors, he just wanted to get through it smoothly and leave himself with some beautiful memories of his youth.
After the mobilization meeting, each company followed the instructors for training. The first day of training started with the most basic drills, such as standing at attention, marching in step, at ease, and changing formations.
These are basic movements that we have been exposed to since childhood, so students can basically stick to them.
After his rebirth, Song Ci was in good health and had been exercising regularly, so this level of training was a piece of cake for him.
However, the always spoiled Fatty Lin also persisted, which made him look at him with new eyes.
The morning passed quietly with repeated basic training, and everyone had lunch in the camp canteen at noon.
The food in the army was good, with four dishes and one soup, and plenty of rice and steamed buns. The training was very physically demanding, so Lu Yuguang and the other two ate voraciously. Song Ci shook his head when he saw their anxious eating habits.
After lunch, everyone went to the assigned barracks to rest. There were eight people in a room, and the simple accommodation conditions were certainly not comparable to those in school dormitories.
Four people were assigned to a room in Songci dormitory 310 and dormitory 308. They were all students in the finance class and were familiar with each other.
However, Cai Jie from dormitory 308 is a well-known troublemaker in the class. He likes to stir up trouble. After getting familiar with the environment of the barracks, he started to tease Lin Hao.
Cai Jie wiped the sweat off his face with a towel and said with a smile, "Fatty Lin, you're great. You managed to persevere through the training this morning. That's great."
The tone sounded somewhat contemptuous, which made people feel uncomfortable.
Lin Hao lay motionless on the hard wooden bed, too lazy to pay attention to the sarcastic Cai Jie. He and Cai Jie had always been at odds.
Lin Hao was very unhappy. This guy relied on his older girlfriend to show off his affection in front of single guys like them.
The fourth son of his family has a celebrity girlfriend and a beauty from Peking University pursuing her, but he doesn't show off at all. Why are you pretending in front of everyone?
They were all young and energetic guys, so it was inevitable that there would be friction between the two dormitories. Lu Yugang also couldn't stand Cai Jie, so he directly confronted him, "If you have nothing to do, take advantage of the time to rest more and talk less nonsense."
Cai Jie was unruly and said provocatively: "I have good physical fitness. I can hold on in the afternoon even if I don't rest at noon."
Song Ci, who was replying to "Shi Bao"'s text message, saw Cai Jie was so arrogant and wanted to suppress his arrogance, so he said coldly:
"Since you have so much energy, let's ask Instructor Wang to be our witness this afternoon. Let's compete in push-ups. The loser will do all the laundry for the other's dormitory for the next two weeks. Do you dare?"
Cai Jie was eager to try and compete with Song Ci. He felt that apart from his appearance, he was not inferior to Song Ci in any way.
Just when he was looking for an opportunity to save face in front of his classmates, he couldn't stand the fact that Song Ci always acted so cold in front of everyone.
Before he could open his mouth, his roommate Li Haiya tried to persuade him: "It's so hot, Lao Cai, you should take a break. It's only the first day and you are so energetic. Who knows what kind of training will come later? We are all in the same class, so there is no point in wasting time."
Li Haiya knew that Song Ci was the class teacher's favorite student, and several professors in the college also admired him.
People have different relationships with each other. Cai Jie was not popular in the class to begin with. If anything happened, the teacher would definitely side with Song Ci. Why bother making yourself unhappy and causing trouble?
The other two roommates in Room 308, Jian Mingyu and Chen Li, also tried to persuade Cai Jie, and he finally gave up. He snorted in dissatisfaction, climbed onto the bed, and closed his eyes to rest.
The quarrel that occurred in the barracks at noon was just a small episode in the military training life. At 1:30 p.m., the instructor blew the whistle to assemble. Everyone woke up from their nap and hurried to the training ground to line up again for training.
The afternoon sun was quite scorching, and soon, sweat started to run down the students' cheeks and soak their clothes.
Just when some people began to give up, the instructors ended the physical training and instead taught everyone how to fold bedding and tidy up their rooms to give the students a break.
After all, it was the first day of training, and the military training schedule was a combination of dynamic and static activities, giving students a step-by-step and gradual adaptation process.
Soon it was evening, the gorgeous sunset dyed the sky a beautiful orange-red, and the first day of training was coming to an end.
After dinner, everyone was arranged to study the "National Defense Law", "National Defense Education Law" and other laws and important guiding documents on college students' military training. This was naturally easy for a group of academic elites from Peking University.
The students worked until nine o'clock in the evening, and then returned to the barracks. Today's military training was finally over, and they could enjoy a moment of relaxation and freedom.
However, since we were in the training base, there was no internet or electronic equipment, so we couldn’t do anything. We could only take a shower and rest.
On a hot summer day, Song Ci took a cool shower, feeling refreshed and comfortable. He washed and hung his clothes before going to bed early.
He sent several text messages to Liu Shishi, but there was no reply. Many scenes of "Nightclub" need to be shot at night, and maybe Miss Liu is filming at the moment and has no time to reply to him.
After taking a shower, everyone felt bored and naturally could only gather together to chat and kill time.
Lin Hao really couldn't sit still. He had been holding back his anger at noon and hadn't let it out yet, so he met Cai Jie and hung up the phone with his girlfriend.
He immediately took notice and said, "Old Cai, you are the one who shows off your affection every day and makes people hate you. You also don't allow others to talk loudly. If you want to make a phone call, go to the corridor and don't be an eyesore in the dormitory!"
Lin Hao wasn't annoyed that the other person had a girlfriend, nor was he so petty.
The main problem is this guy Cai Jie. When he makes a phone call in the dormitory and everyone chats loudly, he starts to complain and says that others are disturbing his phone call and why others have to accommodate you. This kind of behavior naturally makes people dislike it.
Cai Jie laughed when he heard this: "If you have a girlfriend, you can show off too. I'm not stopping you. But with your chubby appearance, I guess no girl would be interested in you!"
Lin Hao was furious and argued unconvinced: "Song Ci's girlfriend is the beauty queen of Beijing Dance Academy. Our beauty queen of Peking University is also pursuing him, but she has never been like you. Showing off affection leads to death quickly. If you have the guts, you can compete with Song Ci!!"
Song Ci is known as the most handsome boy in Peking University in the past century. Cai Jie knows how popular his handsome face is with girls. He is not stupid enough to compete with Song Ci in terms of appearance.
Cai Jie casually glanced at the four people in dormitory 310, did not argue, chuckled, picked up his toiletries, and left.
Seeing Cai Jie walking away, Lu Yugang turned to Li Tianya and the other two in Room 308 and asked, "I'm curious how you can stand him normally. This guy really does what he wants."
The way Cai Jie looked at me just now made me feel really uncomfortable, and I wanted to go up and punch him hard.
"Mr. Cai is usually fine at school, I don't know why he is a little abnormal after coming to the base."
Chen Li smiled bitterly and helplessly told the four people in Room 310 that although Cai Jie was a bit domineering on weekdays, since they were assigned to the same dormitory, they could only get along with each other and seek common ground while reserving differences. After a school year, the four people in the dormitory got along quite harmoniously.
Song Ci Weiwei agreed with Chen Li's point of view. He, Lin Hao and the other two got along very well, but it took a long time to get used to the little things in daily life.
For example, Lu Yugang snored heavily at night, which greatly affected his sleep quality. He always liked quietness, and the snoring made him very uncomfortable at first. It took him half a year to gradually adapt.
So a person needs a certain degree of adaptability to constantly adapt to the new environment, just like now they have to adapt to the simple conditions in the barracks.
Li Tianya sighed. Seeing that everyone was disgusted with Cai Jie's behavior, he slowly explained the reason in order to ease the conflict.
"Because Song Ci is here, Cai Jie is feeling competitive, so he is acting a little different than usual."
He has the best relationship with Cai Jie in the class, so he knows a little about his friends' thoughts. It cannot be said that he is jealous of Song Ci, but he is just holding back his desire to compete with Song Ci, the school's big celebrity, so he is provocative to the students in Room 310.
After that, Li Tianya asked Song Ci, "We are all classmates. Song Ci, you should be a big man and don't bear grudges. Don't bother with him these days. I will also persuade Cai Jie. We usually see each other every day in school. There is no need to confront each other."
Song Ci looked at Li Tianya's pleading expression and nodded slowly. He now holds a high position in his career and his Qi cultivation skills have reached a certain level.
Since his classmates had talked to this extent, he would naturally give face. As long as Cai Jie did not touch his bottom line and made a few verbal provocations occasionally, he would pretend that nothing had happened.
Lin Hao changed the subject, "Let's not talk about Lao Cai, it's a bummer! It's rare for our two dormitories to get together, so let's talk about something else during the long night."
Chen Li asked curiously: "Speaking of which, there will be a cultural evening on the last day. Are you going to perform this time, Song Ci?"
Last year, a poem by Song Dynasty poet, "The Wind Rises", became a classic in the history of Peking University's art performances. Students are all looking forward to his new work.
It's amazing to say that now there are all kinds of pirated and cover versions of "The Wind Rises" rampant on the Internet. Everyone only knows that the original author of "The Wind Rises" is the best-selling author Yun Zhiyi, but few people have explored the fact that "The Wind Rises" was introduced at the party as an original work of Song Ci.
Song Ci shook his head, "I didn't sign up for the show this time."
With the development of Tengda Group, he has to focus more and more on company affairs. He has already told his class teacher that he will basically not participate in non-essential school activities in the future.
Chen Li felt a little bit sorry. He hoped that Song poetry could be revived as a classic. "I heard that the host of the evening party is still Shen Sisi."
Jian Mingyu curled his lips, "Tsk, you make it sound like Shen Sisi is the host of every large-scale school event."
Lu Yugang smiled and said, "Shen University's campus beauty wants to be a host at CCTV in the future. These school activities are just small events."
He is dating Sun Jingyi, and he has heard her say several times that Shen Sisi's ambition is to become a CCTV host.
It was a rare opportunity to chat with Song Ci. Jian Mingyu hesitated for a long time, but couldn't help asking, "Song Ci, how do you get along with the school beauty Shen?"
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Song Ci replied unhappily, "What do you mean by how we get along? I have a girlfriend, and Sisi is just an ordinary friend!"
"Song Ci, if you don't like Shen Sisi, just say it clearly and don't get entangled with her."
Jian Mingyu was both happy and regretful. He was an admirer of Shen Sisi, but he knew that he had no chance. He hoped that his goddess would be happy, but he also didn't want her to fall deeply in love with him.
Song Ci sighed silently, thinking that how could outsiders know his own affairs? Wasn't what he expressed to Shen Sisi clear enough? From the beginning to the end, he had never shown any love between men and women towards Miss Shen, not even the slightest ambiguity!
It's not that he intends to fight with Miss Shen, he has a cold personality, it's rare to have a friend, so he still cherishes it. We are all smart people, if we really want to make things clear, we may not even be friends!
