Chapter 719: Chapter 719

Throughout the military training, Minal lazed around every day.

Almost every afternoon she’d feel dizzy at least once, and although it was just once, Instructor Chen remembered it well...

Instructor Chen took into consideration that she was a girl and didn’t say anything. If she had been a boy, she would have long been singled out for a lecture.

"Anyhow, watch yourself. If you slack off too much, I won’t let you off," he said.

And so, Instructor Chen gave Minal quite the lecture.

Minal stuck out her tongue and could only nod obediently, "Oh, got it..."

"Alright then," he said.

Instructor Chen then waved his hand, "I’ve said all that needs to be said. If you can sleep, sleep now. Don’t bother showering since you’re going to exercise when you wake up. It’s also fine to shower when you return tomorrow morning."

"Yes, Instructor," the girls replied, nodding.

Having said that, Instructor Chen turned to leave, and the girls craned their necks to watch him go...

But as he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and pointed specifically at Minal, "Remember what I said!"

Minal quickly reacted, responding loudly.

Afterwards, Instructor Chen finally really left, and the remaining four girls visibly relaxed...

"Let’s sleep, let’s sleep, I’m not showering!"

Minal raised her hand and waved, "Zixuan, let’s sleep together!"

"Ah, you’re not showering..."

Wei Zixuan adjusted her large-framed glasses, "Then I’ll go shower first. I sweat a lot this morning; it wouldn’t be comfortable sleeping."

Thinking about being lazy, Minal sighed, "Alright then, I’ll shower with you. Otherwise, you’ll despise me for sleeping in your bed..."

"Yes, yes," Wei Zixuan nodded.

"My goodness, you really do despise me..." exclaimed Minal in surprise.

And thus, the two of them chatted idly on their way to the communal bathroom with their clothes to shower.

Back in the dormitory, Pu Sangzhi and Mu Mu, both in a daze, suddenly looked at each other for a second...

Mu Mu tried to avoid the awkward silence by frantically thinking of a topic. She finally came up with one and hurriedly said, "Oh right, I heard from a senior that it’s best to put a couple of sanitary pads inside the insoles of your shoes. It will make the marching much easier."

Pu Sangzhi was taken aback, "Does that work?"

Mu Mu nodded, "The senior said so. And these past two days when I browsed the forums, I saw a lot of people mention that putting a sanitary pad under the insole can absorb sweat, and it’s soft to step on... Do you want to try it?"

"Hmm, I could give it a try."

Pu Sangzhi quickly took a sanitary pad out from her cabinet to have it on hand.

Before she closed the cabinet door, Pu Sangzhi suddenly thought of Huo Feng and hurriedly took an extra pack of sanitary pads...

Thinking that she should also give a pack to Huo Feng.

The boys certainly wouldn’t have thought of this method.

"I’m going to look for my boyfriend, don’t lock the dorm door when I’m out," she said.

Pu Sangzhi hurriedly packed the sanitary pads in a colored bag, grabbed her phone, and rushed out of the dorm.

Huo Feng’s dormitory building was in Zijing No. 1, which was very close to Pu Sangzhi’s Zijing No. 5.

Pu Sangzhi ran to find Huo Feng, and upon arrival, she also called Huo Feng to let him know she was there to see him.

Pu Sangzhi had no intention of entering the male dormitory; it was a signal for Huo Feng to come down and get it himself.

At that moment, while Pu Sangzhi stood outside the male dormitory waiting for Huo Feng, a few scattered freshmen walked into the male dormitory, and they couldn’t help but give Pu Sangzhi an extra glance.

Of course, many of the boys recognized that Pu Sangzhi was the beauty of the Civil Engineering Department...

Just then, the twins were chatting along as they walked towards the dormitory building...

As they passed by Pu Sangzhi, and about four meters beyond, they both turned their heads! Both sets of eyes were fixed on Pu Sangzhi in unison!

For an instant, their gazes seemed frozen, unable to move away for a long while!

Gu Erhao elbowed Gu Yihao, "Bro, am I seeing things, or has our chance just arrived?"

Gu Yihao, with a stoic face, nodded, "Yeah, it has..."

After a two-second freeze, the brothers simultaneously rushed forward, with Gu Erhao stretching out his hand in front of Gu Yihao in a blocking gesture!

Gu Yihao, too, brushed his hand aside, as the two of them vied with each other, sprinting down the steps towards Pu Sangzhi with reckless abandon...

They nearly collided with Pu Sangzhi...

Pu Sangzhi, frightened, stepped back two paces, her shoulders tensing up, a look of wary bewilderment on her face.

Two incredibly similar faces...

Pu Sangzhi almost recognized them as Huo Feng’s roommates at first glance!

But she didn’t say anything.

In the end, it was Gu Erhao who stopped in front of Gu Yihao, baring his white teeth with excitement. He took a couple of hurried breaths and said, "Hello, I’m Gu Erhao from the Computer Science Department. I know you. Can we be friends?"

"I’m Gu Yihao from the Computer Science Department."

Gu Yihao, standing beside him, also nervously held his chest as he introduced himself.

The brothers had been paying attention to Pu Sangzhi for several days and finally found the opportunity to talk to her!

Originally, they were a bit cowardly and had planned to chase after her after military training...

But they heard that the freshman dance was soon after military training, and such an important dance was naturally an event they both very much wanted to invite Pu Sangzhi to!

So, for a top-class beauty like Pu Sangzhi, they figured they had to make a move early!

At this moment, this rare opportunity was right before their eyes, and they had to grab it!

Pu Sangzhi nodded awkwardly, not knowing how to behave towards the two men.

"Although you might not recognize us, Pu, my brother and I have long heard about your prominent reputation. You see..."

Gu Erhao, bursting with enthusiasm, pulled out his phone and anxiously licked his dry lips, "Is it okay if we add each other on WeChat and become friends? Isn’t the freshman dance coming up? I’m sincerely, wholeheartedly inviting you to be my dance partner, hehe..."

After speaking, Gu Erhao smiled shyly, a blush spreading over his sun-tanned skin.

"Pu, you have a choice. You can choose me too..."

Gu Yihao hurriedly took out his phone as well, even clicking on the WeChat QR code, his face full of expectation as he looked at Pu Sangzhi, "He’s my younger brother, I’m definitely more reliable. Rest assured, if you agree to be my dance partner, I’ll make sure everything is well-arranged for that day! Is that okay?"

"I’m absolutely more reliable than my brother! Not only will I arrange everything perfectly for that day, but I also know how to ballroom dance. I can teach you in advance!"

Gu Erhao nudged Gu Yihao with his elbow, while mocking his brother and promoting himself at the same time. The most update n0vels are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚✦𝕟𝕖𝕥

"I can ballroom dance too, I can also teach you!" Gu Yihao immediately retorted.

Thus, the brothers sincerely made their pitches, offering their WeChat QR codes to Pu Sangzhi as if waiting for her to make a decision.

Pu Sangzhi was a bit frightened by this display.

Her gaze drifted around before she unconsciously looked towards the male dormitories, and just then...

She saw Huo Feng leaning against the door, arms crossed, relaxed posture, and observing the scene with amusement.

So Huo Feng, seeing this scene, didn’t come to intervene?

Isn’t that a bit too laid-back!

Pu Sangzhi sighed to herself.

"I’m sorry, I can’t accept your invitation."

Pu Sangzhi declined, "I already have a boyfriend."

"That doesn’t matter!"

Gu Erhao argued, "See, your boyfriend isn’t at the school. I just want to be friends. It’s not good for such a pretty girl to be alone at the freshman dance..."

Gu Erhao assumed that Pu Sangzhi’s boyfriend definitely wasn’t attending the same school, so he said this.

After he finished speaking, Pu Sangzhi looked behind them with an embarrassed expression...

Because by then, Huo Feng had silently appeared behind them...

"Yeah, we just want to be friends with you."

Gu Yihao insisted, "You said your boyfriend isn’t here, having a few more friends is good, right? We can look after you."

"Sorry, I can’t add you," Pu Sangzhi said.

"Pu, let’s just be friends..."

Seeing Pu Sangzhi’s refusal wasn’t very decisive, Gu Erhao thought that if he persisted, he could succeed!

After all, they had mustered up the courage to approach her...

If they failed this time, they would definitely not dare to try again!

So since they were already being thick-faced about it, they decided to go all out!

"Really, rest assured, I won’t mess with your relationship with your boyfriend."

Gu Erhao raised three fingers swearing to the heavens, "We just want to team up with you for the freshman dance. You’re a beautiful girl; you deserve to have someone take care of you... and your boyfriend isn’t here..."

Then someone interrupted Gu Erhao.

The voice came from behind Gu Erhao...
