Chapter 16: Brother's Gift

As a major general, Ling Xuan lived in a high-ranking officer's villa complex. It has a quiet environment and is big enough for a single family.

The Y-717 military asteroid has no shortage of space. The students had to live in an eight-person dormitory room just to cultivate a sense of teamwork and a sense of collective honor.

Ling Yaoyao was not used to living in an eight-person room. After all, she lived in a single dormitory during her previous life in middle school and university.

After seeing the environment in which Ling Xuan lived, she couldn't help but envy and hate!

Spacious, bright, concise, and atmospheric four rooms and two halls! The master bedroom, the guest room originally reserved for the adjutant, the study room, the training room... even the kitchen is very large.

After they entered the house, Ling Yaoyao refused to get down and began to turn into a koala, holding Ling Xuan's neck sweetly and acting like a baby. "Brother, compared with our dormitory, your place is almost heavenly. I don't want to go back anymore. Can I live with you?"

Ling Xuan easily took off her small arms from his neck, threw her on the sofa, and ruthlessly refused. "No."

Ling Yaoyao was just dead angry. She thought that Ling Xuan was here to help her, but his instruction was even more psychotic and harsher than the instructor of the mecha department. Now that she was rejected, she was almost furious!

She grabbed the pillow on the sofa and slammed it to Ling Xuan. "Then why are you here? You said you are going to bring me a gift. Is this the gift?!"

Who knows that Ling Xuan would just catch the pillow she threw and then let out a faint "um"!

Ling Yaoyao's face was like struck by lightning: '...Are you kidding me?'

Ling Xuan knew that this little girl would be angry with him for a long time if he didn't make it clear.

"At the Border Star auction, I got a level-seven Biying fruit by chance. If you have a physique below B level, you can forcibly increase your physique by 1 level when you take it. Your current physique is D-level, and taking it now is not cost-effective. But if you continue to train, squeezed your physical limit, you can easily upgrade level D to level C in about a month."

With that said, Ling Xuan took out a vacuum-preserved delicate transparent fruit box from his portable space button. A baby's fist-sized fruit was quietly embedded in the groove of the light green ice stone box. The skin of the fruit was glowing with light green fluorescence. It looks very beautiful.

This is also why Ling Xuan was particularly strict with the auxiliary therapy department and focused on Ling Yaoyao.

With Ling Yaoyao's personality, it is impossible to squeeze her limit and train herself that long without something she really cares about.

So this military training is a great opportunity.

Although the D-level physique does not affect their daily life, as an auxiliary therapist, Ling Yaoyao will often use mental energy to process food in the laboratory, which is also a physical task.

When Ling Yaoyao is promoted to a senior food assistant therapist, she would need to deal with advanced ingredients. Before her SS-level mental power was exhausted, her body might not be able to support it first.

More importantly, the physique is also closely related to the life span. Someone with a B-grade physique can live a few decades longer than someone with a D-grade physique.

Such a high-grade ingredient that can improve physical fitness is a very rare thing.

Ling Xuan was able to get this level-seven Biying fruit because he wasted a lot of effort and an astronomical number of credit points.

However, Ling Yaoyao couldn't think about so much information hidden behind a small fruit. There is only one thing she paid attention to. "Oh oh oh! I can grow taller after eating this!"

Ling Yaoyao reached out and took it to take a good look at this baby.

She doesn't know what is Biying fruit. But she only knows that this era's medicinal materials/food ingredients are divided into levels one to seven. Level seven is the highest level, and it rarely appears.

Ling Xuan took the fruit box far away so that she could not reach it and asked, "You have to make your own choice. Do you want to insist on the ultimate physical fitness training until you can upgrade to C-level?"

Ling Yaoyao: "Yes!"

Ling Xuan nodded. "Then I will give it to you when you advance to C-level."

Biyingguo can be kept for another month and a half at most. If Ling Yaoyao can't reach the C level by then, he can only let her eat it. Of course, this cannot be said yet.

Ling Yaoyao could only watch the beautiful fruit being collected by Ling Xuan. During the military training, she could not bring any space button and could not store the fruit herself.

She stared blankly and said pitifully, "Can't you let me look at the Biying fruit and touch it..."

Ling Xuan remained unmoved. "No."

"What about the other gift? You said two gifts."

Ling Xuan brushed her off. "The other one is not available for you now. You have to wait until you advance to the C-level. If you can't make it, I won't give it to you."

No matter how hard Ling Yaoyao pressed him, Ling Xuan would not change what he had decided.

Ling Yaoyao had to give up. It seemed that she has to accept his destructive training to advance to the C-level.

However, other people in the auxiliary therapy department also have to accompany her to suffer. Ah no, they are fighting to improve their physique... Ling Yaoyao felt a strange cool breeze. Fortunately, she is not the only one who is so miserable.

"Didn't you say your feet hurt and blistered? Let me see."

Now Ling Yaoyao knew that all Lin Xuan's evil deeds were actually to improve her physique. At the moment, her heart is full of happy little bubbles. And then, she felt embarrassed for the ill-spoken voice she just made against Ling Xuan.

She exercised for a day and ran with a heavy load at night. She didn't know how much sweat she had. How could she show Ling Xuan her stinky feet?

Even if he is her older brother, he's also a man!

Under the influence of the belated girl's shame, Ling Yaoyao squeezed and whispered, "...I'm all stinky in sweat, so I have to take a bath first. I'll do it myself later, and you don't need to worry about it."

Ling Xuan thought that after applying medicine, the wound shouldn't touch water, so he pointed out the direction of the guest room.

After resting for a while, Ling Yaoyao also had recovered a bit of strength. She got up with some difficulty, paced slowly, and walked towards the guest room.

Ling Xuan looked at the little girl struggling to walk and regretted that he was too cruel to her during the day. But it was necessary for her to advance to the C-level as soon as possible.

Ling Yaoyao went into the bathroom and put all the dirty clothes on her body into the washing machine.

The interstellar washing machine only needs to put the clothes in, and everything else is processed automatically. It only takes 20 minutes to wash it inside out and dry it completely!

There is also a cleaning instrument for washing shoes, but it takes a little longer to dry.

After doing all this, Ling Yaoyao couldn't wait to enter the great-looking jacuzzi.

After simply washing off the sweat stains on her body, Ling Yaoyao chose the rose essential oil bath option for half an hour.

After a tiring day, the most comfortable thing is to soak in a fragrant hot bath. Every inch of her strained muscles is warmed and softly soothed.

In order for them to experience the arduous military life, the dormitories only have simple showers with two toilets and bathrooms. There is only one washing machine. They have to line up so eight people could use it.

Ling Yaoyao squinted, leaning against the bathtub soaking in constant temperature hot water, enjoying the smart robotic arm shampooing her hair and massaging her acupuncture points with moderate strength, and felt a little drowsy.

She thought in a daze, 'If only I could come here to take a bath every day from now on!'

Half an hour later, the highly intelligent bathtub issued an electronic voice prompt, "Your bath has reached the preset time. Do you want to continue or end it?"

Ling Yaoyao rubbed her misty eyes and got up reluctantly. Her eyes are almost half-closed. She had to grope around to put on her washed and dried clothes and shoes.

Her body is much more refreshed and comfortable, but now her mind is groggy, clamoring to fall asleep!

Just when Ling Yaoyao got out of the bathroom and wanted to jump on the soft and comfortable bed in the guest room, she found that Ling Xuan had been waiting for her for who knows how long. There is a medicine box next to him.

He said with his cold voice, "Do I need to give you an awakening shot?"

Ling Yaoyao suddenly forced her own eyes wide open, and quickly said, "No, no, no need!"

Good Lord! The time limit for an awakening shot is at least one hour! It's half-past ten. If he administered an awakening shot, when will she go to bed?

Ling Xuan gave a brief instruction, "Sit down, take off your shoes."

Ling Yaoyao was dominated by Mr. Psychotic Instructor Ling Xuan for a whole day. In addition, her brain was a little sleepy, and her reaction was slow. She subconsciously followed his orders one by one.

Ling Yaoyao didn't come back to her senses until she saw Ling Xuan squatting on the floor, wearing thin medical gloves, holding up her calf, and carefully examining the soles of her feet.

My God, if her classmates who hated Ling Xuan but worshiped this undefeated God of War knew that she actually enslaved their Lord this way, she felt that she might cause public outrage!

Ling Yaoyao wanted to withdraw her feet. "Brother, I'll do it myself..."

Ling Xuan grabbed her thin white ankles, frowned deeply, and said in a cold voice, "Don't move!"

The little girl's feet are tiny, not as long as his palm. Except for the original skin tone of the feet, the heels, soles, and round and lovely toes are all swollen red, and there are dozens of large and small blisters.

It silently complained of the devastation it had experienced during the day.

Ling Xuan didn't know how many times he had suffered injuries ten times more severe than this, and he never called out pain.

But when he saw his baby sister, who has been spoiled by the Ling family since childhood and has never eaten a bit of pain, but because of him, her feet have become scarred like this...

Ling Xuan felt a lot of guilt and distress.
