Schaffler has never felt the road to the training ground is so long as it does today.
After being reserved at first, Chen Nian gradually opened up and started chatting with Antonio.
Antonio is a close friend of Shafla, and he had even chatted with Chen Nian at the banquet. This time he seemed much more relaxed and seemed to truly regard Chen Nian as a friend.
But Shaflay felt something was wrong when he heard it.
After understanding Chen Nian's true character and how good he was at acting, Shafley was able to see through the boy's disguises.
Chen Nian deliberately pretended to be shy and weak in front of Antonio, as if she was really the prince's consort who had been kept in seclusion for eighteen years and rarely communicated with others.
But Antonio didn't know that Chen Nian was just pretending.
The boy's quick look of looking away after their eyes made contact pierced his heart, and made him feel pity and even more certain that "Chen Ci" was not happy.
Chen Ci needs someone to slowly guide him, love him, and help him get in touch with the outside world. That person must be careful and gentle.
Instead of being like his dull and unromantic friend, who not only brings people to such a boring class, but also just listens to himself the whole time and doesn't care about the other person at all.
Since Shafley can't do it, there's nothing wrong with him helping out, right?
The ten-minute journey was spent in Antonio's sympathy, Chen Nian's suppressed laughter, and Shafla's speechless stomachache.
Finally arriving at the training ground, Shafley immediately opened the car door beside him, trying to escape the suffocating environment.
Chen Nian originally wanted to go down from the other side, but Shafulai patted his arm lightly.
Chen Nian understood, and he moved his body to get out of the car from the side where Shafulai opened the door. Alpha held his wrist politely, and the two of them were very close to each other for a moment.
Shaflay was about to take this opportunity to whisper something to Chen Nian.
The moment he opened his mouth, Chen Nian, who knew what Shafley was thinking, raised his finger and put it to the Alpha's lips, signaling him not to make a sound.
Chen Nian pressed his index finger on his lips, using a little force, blocking all of Shafulai's words.
Shaflay did not miss the momentary nervousness and mockery in the boy's eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and the troubled heart in his chest suddenly calmed down inexplicably.
Antonio, who got off the front seat, knew nothing about this.
Chen Nian lowered his eyes, his thick black eyelashes hiding the expression in his eyes, and he once again regained the image of a docile little animal.
The three of them walked into the training ground together. Just as Shafley said, they trained with the cadets. As soon as Chen Nian stepped into the field, he was overwhelmed by the overwhelming Alpha pheromones.
The young cadets were sweating profusely, and their sweat released a unique aura that was intertwined with each other.
For Chen Nian, an Omega, it was like a gust of cold wind blowing into his warm quilt, instantly making him as clear-headed as could be.
...was also obviously excited.
But before he could feel more, the aroma of sherry filled his nose and the breath of the Alpha beside him surrounded him tightly, blocking out all other smells.
Chen Nian: …………
Well, it's a shame, but it's not bad.
Shafulai had no ill intentions. The Alpha pheromones were simply too strong and he was afraid that Chen Nian would be affected and something unexpected might happen.
Not to mention that now Chen Nian is using the identity of Chen Ci, and it is his duty to protect his fiancée in front of everyone.
Chen Nian's appearance was like a drop of water falling into a frying pan, instantly causing an explosive sensation.
The training ground was filled with young and strong cadets. Normally, they were under closed management and had few opportunities to come into contact with Omegas. But when they suddenly saw the young man following Shaflay, they couldn't take their eyes off him.
Chen Nian seemed to be frightened by the cheers of surprise and moved closer to Shaflay's side. Unexpectedly, this action immediately aroused excited cheers.
The combination of Shafulai and Chen Nian is so pleasing to the eyes that even passing ants would say they are a match made in heaven!
Chen Nian could clearly feel the slight vibrations of Shafulai's pheromones and laughed secretly in his heart. He had no idea that the eldest prince was so thin-skinned.
The instructor in charge of training came over, and naturally he did not expect that the noble prince's wife would appear here.
"He wanted to come over and take a look," Schaffray explained.
Chen Nian's eyes were filled with just the right amount of timidity: "I'm just watching from the sidelines. I won't affect everyone's training."
No Alpha could say anything harsh in front of this look, not even the instructor.
He naturally treated the matter as if a member of the royal family came to inspect the work. After all, this was the prince's consort who had always lived in the White Tower and never went out. There was no reason for her to suddenly come to the training ground.
No, maybe the princess came here specifically to watch His Royal Highness Shaflay’s training?
The instructor immediately arranged for students to bring up a sunshade. No matter whether the Crown Princess came to inspect or to watch the Crown Prince train, he couldn't let anyone sit under the blazing sun.
"Thank you." Chen Nian gave a grateful smile to the instructors and the cadets who had brought the awning. He sat in the shade and watched the Alphas undergo training.
Shafley went to the locker room to change into a training suit, and when he came out he was wearing a dark suit. Alpha had broad shoulders, and the hem of his close-fitting inner shirt was tucked into his belt, outlining his slender waist and abdomen, and his legs were long and strong under his trousers.
The dark military boots were shiny and had thick soles, which made people imagine what they would look like when they were crushing something with great force.
Antonio was equally handsome, with his slightly long brown hair tied behind his head, giving him a completely different sense of competence from his usual self.
Chen Nian admired the beauty in front of him politely. To be honest, perhaps because they had been together for a long time, he still liked Shaflai more.
Shafulai looked towards Chen Nian, and seeing that he was sitting there well, he was no longer too worried.
Shafley lay on the ground, raised his sniper rifle, and began training with full concentration.
Without any prejudice, I can say that Shafley was indeed the best among the many Alphas that Chen Nian met after reaching the top.
He is at the best age, has the most distinguished family background, is so handsome that the more you look at him, the more you can't take your eyes off him. He is low-key in his dealings with others, has a great temper, is easy to talk to, and does not have any of the bad habits of a rich kid.
Although this person can be a little dull at times, his merits outweigh his flaws.
Chen Nian thinks there is nothing wrong with the best Alpha matching his best brother.
With loud gunshots, Alpha's body shook due to the recoil, and his strong muscles tensed to hold up the thin clothing.
Shafley does not have muscles that are deliberately developed for fitness. All his lines are formed naturally from high-intensity physical training, and he has excellent endurance and explosive power.
Targets hundreds or even thousands of meters away were hit one after another, and none of the dozens of shots missed their target.
Chen Nian looked at Shafulai's figure and suddenly felt a little strange.
Is this still his nerdy brother who only thinks about playing games?
The appearance of Chen Nian has greatly stimulated the potential of the Alphas. In this training, everyone has shown extraordinary excellence. Who wouldn't want to perform well in front of the princess?
The instructor was very happy. He thought that if these guys could perform so diligently and above their level every day, there would be no need to increase the amount of training so exhaustingly.
During the halftime break, Shafla brushed off the grass and sand on his body and walked towards Chen Nian.
Chen Nian handed over a bottle of water at the right time. Shafley twisted it and found that the bottle cap had been opened.
It was the first time that Shafley received Chen Nian's kindness so directly, and he felt somewhat flattered.
He drank half a bottle of water and took a towel to wipe the sweat off his body.
A thin layer of sweat formed on Alpha's body, which shone in the sunlight, making his muscular figure look even more muscular.
Due to racial reasons, tsavorite will not turn brown no matter how much it is exposed to the sun. At most, it will turn a little red, which will quickly fade away once it is in the shade.
"Is it fun?" Chen Nian asked.
Shafle realized what was behind him: "Want to try it?"
Chen Nian nodded: "Is it okay?"
"Okay." Shafley sat down next to him. "I'll take a break for two minutes."
The warm aroma of sherry wafted through the chaplet's body, and Chen Nian couldn't help but raise her hand to tighten the necklace around her neck.
It’s true that he is very resistant to Alpha pheromones, but Shaflay is the top Alpha, and the smell of pheromones is still his favorite wine aroma.
Shafley rested for ten minutes and stood up again, "Come on."
Chen Nian immediately became excited. He took off his coat, revealing a white cotton shirt underneath.
He followed Shafulai to where the gun was held. Shafulai knew that Chen Nian would not care whether his clothes would get dirty, so he instructed him to lie on the ground in the appropriate posture.
Chen Nian's hips and legs were pressed against the ground, his arms supported his chest and abdomen, and his spine bent backwards in a wonderful arc. Perhaps because of the concave lower back, his buttocks wrapped in thin pants looked more upright.
He touched the cold sniper rifle with both hands and tried to squint one eye and look through the eyepiece.
Well, a little tired.
It would not be possible to achieve standard movements just by verbal instructions, so Shafley squatted down and helped Chen Nian get into the right position himself.
His palms were warm, and he could clearly feel the temperature even through a layer of clothes.
After all, this was Chen Nian's first time using this kind of weapon, so he found it a little strenuous. After several minutes, he still couldn't get the posture right. He sighed and felt a little annoyed.
Seeing this, Shafley asked softly, "I'll just help you, okay?"
"good."
With permission, Shafley knelt down beside Chen Nian, with his arm around the boy's shoulders in a standard teaching posture.
This posture is like holding Chen Nian in his arms.
Chen Nian was instantly surrounded by pheromones that smelled like sherry.
There was a moment of uncontrollable distraction.
Shafley was very careful and hung on Chen Nian in a particularly tired posture, minimizing physical contact with Chen Nian as much as possible.
He straightened Chen Nian's posture and whispered to the boy to put his hand on the trigger.
Chen Nian had never realized that Shafley's voice could be so deep. It vibrated very close to his ears, and the air flow it brought swept through the strands of hair at his temples, making him feel a little itchy.
"Keep your posture and don't move. Look into the scope. Keep your eyes about two centimeters away. Don't cover them completely."
"Now aim, just aim as you think. If you think it's right, hold your breath and pull the trigger."
Alpha's voice seemed to cover the sound of his heartbeat. The wind was blowing, taking away the growing heat from his body, which might affect his aiming accuracy.
Both hands were sweating, and the knuckles on the trigger were even a little slippery. Even though he didn't touch it, the heat from Shafulai's body seemed to steam Chen Nian, causing beads of sweat to appear on his back and forehead.
His heartbeat was speeding up, making that brief moment even harder to find. Chen Nian held his breath, but even so, he couldn't seem to escape the smell of sherry.
In the high-power scope, the slightest tremor can cause the crosshairs to shift drastically. Chen Nian tried his best to control the force. The gun was very heavy and moving it required extremely delicate control.
Mental power radiates unconsciously, sensing wind direction, strength, target, and crosshairs.
The world through the narrow lens seemed to become clearer.
Chen Nian pulled the trigger.
Bang--
Amid the loud noise, the recoil caused his whole body to shake violently.
Chen Nian didn't expect the force to be so exaggerated. His back hit Shafulai's chest. Shafulai's taut chest muscles were like a soft yet strong cushion, slowing down Chen Nian's body from losing control.
The large-area contact allowed them to feel each other's warmth more clearly; even their heartbeats overlapped for a moment.
Shaflay stood up immediately, even a little flustered, while Chen Nian fell to one side, supporting himself on the ground with his hands, with fine grass growing out from between his fingers.
Chen Nian raised her eyes and met Alpha's violet eyes——
Forced to calm down.
The Omega boy struggled to move his arms that were numbed by the shock. He slowly climbed up, trying to hide his rare moment of gaffe.
His eyes swept across Shaflay's broad chest, then moved to the location of the distant target, and he said to himself softly:
“Not bad.”
