I casually flipped through the college entrance examination application book, and the words "National Defense University" immediately caught my eye. That's it.
With my current knowledge, I should have no problem getting in.
At the beginning of June, the weather was both stuffy and hot. As soon as the bell rang, I put down my pen and walked out of the classroom.
I spotted Zhu Wan surrounded by her few followers, chattering away.
Seeing me, she rushed over with a feigned concern and said, "Sister, how did you do? The questions were quite difficult this time; it's normal not to finish. Don't be too upset."
I didn't want to engage with her and casually replied, "Yeah, I didn't do well," before pretending to be impatient and walking away.
The college entrance examination was over; now it was my turn to take action.
I spent a large sum of money hiring a well-known private investigator to specifically look into the activities of those three over the years, especially Lin Qingge.
I always felt there was something off about her.
After half a month, the investigator sent me a report.
Nan Shan had been up to no good over the years—bribing officials and taking advantage of young girls, some even minors.
The more I read, the more disgusted I became; such scum was beyond redemption.
Lin Qingge transferred money to different accounts every six months.
Zhu Wan didn’t have any new tricks up her sleeve; her brain couldn't come up with anything too clever.
A few days later, the college entrance examination results were released, and I scored 736 points.
The whole school was in an uproar.
Based on Zhu Fan's previous performance, she would only score around 670 or 680 at most.
But what could I say? After all, I was a genius in science in my past life.
The expressions on that mother-daughter duo were priceless, especially Zhu Wan’s; it seemed she only scored in the 500s?
I didn’t pay much attention; most of my classmates probably scored in the 500s as well.
Nan Shan smiled with a kindness I had never known in my memories of Zhu Fan.
"Fan Fan is back? Are you tired?"
I scoffed inwardly and replied coolly, "Not tired."
He seemed unfazed by my indifference and continued,
"Which school does Fan Fan want to attend?"
"National Defense."
His smile brightened even more. "National Defense is great!"
I couldn't be bothered to engage further and simply responded before heading back to my room.
Sure enough, I was accepted into the National Defense Military Academy.
On the first day of school, I glanced at the list of new students and saw that Zhu Wan was also on it.
She truly was an inseparable shadow.
Fortunately, we were not in the same department.
During military training, I spotted Qin Lang; this was our first meeting since the last time.
It seemed he was… my instructor?
"Hello everyone! I will be leading the military training!" Qin Lang said with a serious expression.
He caught my gaze and looked over at me for a moment.
The military training turned out to be more boring than I had anticipated, not reaching the physical limits I expected.
However, for others, it seemed far from easy, especially for Zhu Wan, who looked like she was on the verge of breaking down.
A week later, military training entered a new phase.
Qin Lang scanned us all and declared, "From today on, ten kilometers every day! No one is allowed to fall behind! Otherwise, we all fail!"
The September sun blazed down mercilessly, and even the breeze felt like a wave of heat.
Ten kilometers were a piece of cake for me; by the seventh lap, some people had already started to fall behind.
I watched as they helped each other, feeling puzzled. I could barely take care of myself, yet they were willing to assist others.
Qin Lang had been staring at me, and I felt his gaze. I turned to meet his eyes and nodded slightly.
I was the first to finish, and half an hour later, everyone else managed to complete the task, albeit with difficulty.
"Gather up!" Qin Lang commanded loudly.
"Today counts as you completing the task. Starting tomorrow, you must finish within sixty minutes! Until everyone can complete it in fifty minutes!"
After saying that, he looked at me again.
"You are a team! This is not about individual heroism! On the battlefield, you must entrust your lives to one another!"
Was Qin Lang saying this for my benefit?
During my time as a mercenary, I never relied on anyone else. The weak only drag down the strong, so I was used to going solo.
Back in the dormitory, my roommates looked at me with admiration.
