“Why are you here?”

“Hehe, Company Commander, I must confess that I don’t hold you in high regard. However, after careful consideration, I mustered up the courage to come here and seek your guidance so that I can improve!”

In the office of the company commander, the usually stoic Ye Sans.h.i.+ revealed a side that Cla.s.s Five had never witnessed before.

To his remark, the captain responded with an expressionless face, “Get lost!”

“Company Commander…”

“Humph!” The captain coldly snorted and took a sip from his teacup. After spitting out a tea leaf, he glanced at Ye Sans.h.i.+ and continued, “Blackface Ye, 1 don’t mind if you’re lazy, but there is a good soldier in your cla.s.s who also happens to be the vice cla.s.s monitor. Next time, don’t approach me with such a lifeless att.i.tude. Otherwise, i’ll reprimand you severely!”

“Yes, sir!” Ye Sans.h.i.+ immediately snapped to attention.

The captain waved his hand dismissively. “Alright, get lost. Go retrieve your phone. You have one hour!”

He already knew the purpose behind Ye Sans.h.i.+’s visit. They had a history together, and he understood that Ye Sans.h.i.+ had a girlfriend back in his hometown. It was natural for him to want to communicate with her, and the captain was pleased to see it happen.

In reality, the army wasn’t as strict as Ye Sans.h.i.+ had made it seem when it came to confiscating phones. His statement of “If I have the chance, I’ll distribute them on Sunday,” was simply a fabrication. It was still 2009, and the army only allowed phone calls during major holidays to contact family members. On weekends, phone calls were permissible, but only for official purposes, and using the company’s landline was the preferred method, as long as there was a valid reason. Technically, Ye Sans.h.i.+ hadn’t lied. If a soldier performed well in training and daily tasks, the company commander might occasionally grant permission to retrieve their phone during weekends for personal use. However, this privilege was often taken lightly by recruits in their first year.

“Just one hour. And make sure you bring something valuable back to your cla.s.s. The selection for the outstanding cla.s.s flag bearer will begin next week. If you fail to secure it, don’t bother me afterward. The same goes for the following week and even the next three months. If you can’t fulfill your duties as a cla.s.s leader, forget about pursuing romantic endeavors. You’ll remain a bachelor for the rest of your life!”

As Ye Sans.h.i.+ walked toward the door, the captain suddenly remembered something and turned around to shout, catching Ye Sans.h.i.+ off guard. Regaining his composure, Ye Sans.h.i.+ stood at attention and saluted before the door.

“Yes, I promise to complete the mission!”

Upstairs, the members of Cla.s.s Five were unaware of the events unfolding in the company commander’s office below. If they had known, they would have surely complained. After all, success couldn’t be achieved by simply idling away!

Moreover, the recruits were competing against each other within their cla.s.ses. If anyone wanted to stand out, they had to put in more effort than their peers.

To put it bluntly, they had to go the extra mile.

For the sake of his girlfriend and to avoid being single, Ye Sans.h.i.+ was determined to train everyone in the cla.s.s.

“Salutes can be divided into hand-raising, spear salutes, rifle salutes…”

An hour later, Ye Sans.h.i.+ returned to the dormitory right on time.

Under w.a.n.g Ye’s supervision and intimidation, even though the recruits’ scalps grew numb from reading regulations, and some even dozed off, there was no noise.

As Ye Sans.h.i.+ entered the room, everyone immediately sat up straight without a word.

Ye Sans.h.i.+ didn’t say anything. He looked at Gu Yingnan and asked a simple question: Tell me the different types of salutes and their requirements.

He didn’t expect them to elaborate on the specific details. After all, an hour wasn’t enough time for that level of comprehension.

Yet, even with this consideration, Gu Yingnan’s eyes darted around as she struggled to recall the information. He mentioned hand-raising and even stuttered while attempting to recall more.

“Look at what you’ve memorized. It’s such a simple thing. You should have remembered it after reading it once. Your lack of attention during the past hour is evident.”

Saying this, Ye Sans.h.i.+ threw the notebook he had taken from Gu Yingnan’s hand back at him.

“Anybody else wants to give it a try?”

His gaze turned towards w.a.n.g Ye, but after a moment’s hesitation, he redirected his attention elsewhere. As the one who had chosen the vice-cla.s.s monitor, even if it was just an act, he couldn’t let him lose face.

It didn’t matter whether w.a.n.g Ye knew the answer or not. It was safer to avoid embarra.s.sing him.

He decided to approach Qin Li, who was sitting beside w.a.n.g Ye.

“Qin Li, come here. Tell me, what are the salutes?”

At that moment, Qin Li’s scalp tingled with nerves.

While Gu Yingnan had tried his best to pay attention and remember, Qin Li was the kind of person who didn’t even bother trying. Although he had been holding the notebook, he had merely pretended to flip through it. He hadn’t actually absorbed any of the information.

Why did some students excel while others became slackers in compulsory education? They all attended the same cla.s.ses every day, yet the outcomes varied.

Unfortunately, most of the recruits in the dormitory were like Qin Li—students at heart.

“To… Salute… There are different types… Hand-raising… Spear salute…”

Qin Li strained himself to recall and glanced at w.a.n.g Ye.

But with Ye Sans.h.i.+ standing less than two meters away, w.a.n.g Ye didn’t dare utter a word.

Hence, Qin Li relied on Gu Yingnan’s previous answers. However, since Ye Sans.h.i.+ had explicitly stated that the spear salute was incorrect, Qin Li had to come up with an alternative. He improvised and blurted out “handshake” instead.

“Puff!”

Laughter erupted in the dormitory.

“What are you laughing at? Find something amusing?” Ye Sans.h.i.+’s face darkened as he pinpointed the source of the laughter—Liang Fan.

Liang Fan scratched his head sheepishly, and in his embarra.s.sment, he became the target of Ye Sans.h.i.+’s shoe, which was promptly thrown at him. Ye Sans.h.i.+ bent down to take off one of his shoes.

“I’ve mentioned discipline numerous times. Do you think I’m joking around? Why are you scratching your head instead of answering my questions? Drop down and do a hundred push-ups!”

“Yes, sir!” Liang Fan promptly responded.

After reprimanding Liang Fan, Ye Sans.h.i.+ turned his attention back to the rest of the recruits. “And what are you all looking at? If you can’t answer such a simple question, it proves that you haven’t been paying attention at all. Drop down and do 50 squats!”

With that command, he fixed his gaze on w.a.n.g Ye. “You’re the vice-cla.s.s monitor. 1 a.s.signed you the responsibility of managing everyone’s studies. Is this how you manage them?”

“Sir!” w.a.n.g Ye didn’t argue.

Though this turn of events was unexpected for him, he had to remember that he wasn’t just an ordinary person now. He held the position of vice-cla.s.s monitor and was a leader. He couldn’t complain about a little extra hards.h.i.+p.

Moreover, every situation had two sides.

By enduring this extra burden, he could pay closer attention to the others in the future. After all, he had to look out for himself. If they didn’t work hard, he would face even harsher consequences. In such circ.u.mstances, he had to be more diligent.

If they didn’t listen to him, it wouldn’t be his fault for making things difficult. Instead, it would be their fault for making things difficult for him.
