By the fourth day of military training, the focus of training for Class 1 of Clothing Engineering had shifted entirely to military boxing.

As a performance item during the gala, this set of boxing techniques requires that the movements be standardized and the momentum be powerful and abundant.

Lu Yuan was chosen as the team leader without any doubt because of his excellent military boxing skills.

Of course, in addition to his hard skills, his excellent appearance and upright posture also made him the undisputed "face" of the class.

In fact, although Lu Yuan in his previous life did not have the composure and leadership he has now, he was still very popular during his school days.

Whether it's a basketball game or a school sports meet, the teachers always recommend him first.

At that time, he only knew how to enjoy the thrill of looking cool, but he ignored the fact that this was actually a preferential treatment given by the teacher based on his outstanding appearance.

Without this innate advantage, he probably wouldn't have had so many opportunities.

Responsibility and reward have always been intertwined.

Since Lu Yuan is willing to take on the responsibility of being the leader, he can naturally enjoy the benefits that come with being the team leader.

In just three or four days, he became very close to several instructors.

While some girls were still racking their brains to please the instructors in an attempt to get an easier military training experience, Lu Yuan was already chatting with the instructors after class, arm in arm, about his feelings about university life.

Once we got to know each other better, the military training became much easier.

As long as everyone completes the day's lessons with high quality and quantity, it's common to take a break ten minutes or more in advance.

Sometimes the sun was so strong that the instructors, not wanting the young people to get sunburned, would wave their hands and tell them to go to the shade of a tree to cool off.

However, since Class 1 of the Clothing Engineering Department is a model class, they must not slack off in their hard work when they are going to perform on stage.

Unfortunately, the weather was uncooperative, with temperatures remaining high throughout the military training period.

On the afternoon of the fifth day, Lu Yuan was leading his team in practicing military boxing when Xu Lingjing, who was in the second row, suddenly collapsed to the ground without warning.

This sudden turn of events startled everyone, and the training came to an abrupt halt. The students quickly gathered around.

"What happened?" The instructor was also anxious and rushed over to check the situation.

Ning Xiao knelt down and helped the weak Xu Lingjing up, touching her forehead. Then she explained to the instructor, "Lingjing has a fever. It's probably because she's on her period these past few days and her body is too weak."

"You should have told us about this in advance!" The instructor's tone was anxious.

If anything were to happen to one of his students, he would be held responsible no matter what; of course, the students' health is the most important thing.

Xu Lingjing shook her head weakly and said softly, "It's okay... I just don't want to hold everyone back. Everyone is working so hard, it wouldn't be right for me to make excuses to slack off."

Her strong sense of collective honor moved all the students present.

"Alright, that's enough. Let's take her to the infirmary first." Lu Yuan looked at Xu Lingjing, wondering to himself.

Logically speaking, Xu Lingjing is an extremely selfish person who puts her own interests first in everything. How could she disregard her own physical condition?

"Yes, let's take her to the infirmary first." The instructor gestured for everyone to make way so that Ning Xiao could help Xu Lingjing to receive treatment.

Xu Lingjing tried to stand up, but because she was too weak, she couldn't put any weight on her legs.

"Who can carry Lingjing on their back?" Ning Xiao asked, looking around.

Xu Lingjing is nearly 1.7 meters tall, which is considered tall for a girl. It's obviously unrealistic for a girl to carry her on her back, so she can only ask a boy for help.

The boys around looked at each other, and for a moment no one stepped forward.

It's not that no one wants to be her protector, but Xu Lingjing is too beautiful. Carrying her on one's back would be tantamount to openly declaring war on the vast majority of men.

Unless you are strong enough, it's really not a good idea to be the one to stick your neck out.

"I'll do it!" Gu Xingzhou volunteered without hesitation when he saw the situation.

He felt this was a perfect opportunity to get closer to Xu Lingjing.

As long as you show "boyfriend power", you will definitely win Hsu Ling-ching's favor.

However, even though he had already half-squatted in front of Xu Lingjing, she shook her head and politely declined.

She turned her head, her eyes brimming with tenderness, and said softly, "Lu Yuan, could you take me to the infirmary?"

"Huh?" Lu Yuan was completely stunned.

What kind of show is this?

Gu Xingzhou volunteered, yet she still specifically asked him to come?

Isn't this deliberately putting himself in a difficult position and making him the target of public criticism?

"Hey, Lu Yuan, since Ling Jing trusts you more, why don't you take her there? You two know each other, aren't you? As friends, shouldn't you help each other out?"

Ning Xiao didn't care about anything else and half-helped, half-pushed Xu Lingjing to Lu Yuan's side.

"Lu Yuan, then you can go." The instructor went along with it and directly assigned Lu Yuan to the task.

Lu Yuan sighed silently, then bent down, picked Xu Lingjing up, and walked towards the infirmary.

"They're such a perfect match."

"Exactly, they're a perfect match, and they've known each other for so many years, they must be childhood sweethearts."

Wow! Childhood sweethearts in love, how sweet!

Watching their departing figures, the students in the class couldn't help but start discussing among themselves.

People seem more inclined to believe that they will cross the line of friendship and become a couple.

Little did he know that in Lu Yuan's heart, he and Xu Lingjing might not even be considered ordinary friends.

Hearing these comments, Gu Xingzhou felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Her resentment towards Lu Yuan deepened.

On the tree-lined path to the infirmary, I encountered many students who were training.

They all stopped and stared as Lu Yuan carried a beautiful woman past.

Some people couldn't help but mutter a few words, which were caught by the sharp-eyed instructors, and the whole class was made to practice for an extra ten minutes as a result.

Lu Yuan was extremely disgusted by the misunderstanding about his relationship with Xu Lingjing, and he seemed very uncomfortable the whole way.

If he weren't afraid that something might really happen to Xu Lingjing, he would never have had such intimate physical contact with her.

Sensing Lu Yuan's stiffness and discomfort, Xu Lingjing, who was lying on his back, suddenly spoke softly, "I'm sorry, Lu Yuan, am I causing you any trouble?"

Lu Yuan paused, intending to speak his mind, but considering how weak she was, he softened and said something against his will: "It's no trouble at all. I'm the class monitor; it's only right that I help you out."

"..." Xu Lingjing was silent for a while, then said softly, "Actually, I felt really unwell this morning. Ning Xiao told me I could take half a day of menstrual leave, but after thinking about it, I still didn't want to. I thought I could get through it."

"Are you stupid?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but speak his mind. "Other girls who aren't as bad as you are already thinking about asking for leave, and you have a leave slip but you still don't ask for it? You weren't this dumb before, were you?"

In Lu Yuan's memory, Xu Lingjing was an extremely intelligent person who would never do anything foolish to mistreat herself.

But her current behavior is really not rational.

Xu Lingjing smiled helplessly, "I guess so."

"Huh? What is it?" Lu Yuan asked, puzzled.

"It's because I'm so stupid." Xu Lingjing gently pressed her cheek against Lu Yuan's broad back, her voice revealing a hint of disappointment and grievance. "You know what? I really look forward to class time, but I don't like after-school time."

Why?

"Because I can only see you when I'm in class."
