Chapter 18(1): Angry and Jealous

 

Even though he said those words, but Ling Xuan did not intend to attack Ling Yaoyao.

Regardless of his momentary restlessness, he wants to maintain the status quo as much as possible and not cross the line. He does not want to destroy Ling Yaoyao's pure attachment and trust in him.

The love between brother, sister, and family members is far more reliable and long-lasting than the love between lovers.

She liked Xiao Ming a while ago, but now that she doesn't like him. When she really doesn't like a person anymore, that is it. There is no nostalgia towards the person.

This is how Ling Yaoyao likes Xiao Ming. Maybe when she likes someone else someday, it will still be like this.

Ling Xuan didn't think it was strange. After all, Ling Yaoyao is just an immature little girl who was only eighteen years old.

But he is different. If one day he is really unwilling to be just her elder brother and decides to cross the line, he will definitely leave her nowhere to escape... He will never allow her to like a man other than him or like him for a while, then turned around and said she no longer like him.

It would be more desperately painful to get something and lose it than never get it at all.

And Ling Xuan thought that currently, his slight feelings were not so strong. His endurance will be able to handle this.

Ling Yaoyao, who had been subconsciously teasing her brother all day, didn't know about it at all.

The military training in the morning includes military postures, military steps, military physical boxing, etc. It is conducted in an outdoor training ground.

When Ling Yaoyao arrived at the auxiliary therapy camp area of ​​the training ground, there were still ten minutes before the morning training starting time. Many people paid attention to her along the way, pointing and whispering from time to time.

When her gaze swept away at them coldly, those people were silent again or pretended to change other topics.

'Gee, these guys must be talking bad about me!'

But Ling Yaoyao didn't really care. As Miss Ling, a bunch of people spoke badly about her behind her back. To put it bluntly, it was all out of jealousy!

Seeing her appear, Zhen Rou took the initiative to greet her and said in a low voice, "Yaoyao, have you offended a girl named Wu Lili? You were taken away by your brother last night, and many people saw it. But then, you did not come back to the dormitory the whole night..."

"That Wu Lili knew about this from somewhere and said today you would be exposed publicly about your absence at night. According to the military training rules, your points will be deducted, and you should be punished. If Major General Ling does not do it, he is deliberately shielding you."

Ling Yaoyao had no impression of this name, she said silently, "I don't know. Is there something wrong with this woman?! Even if I didn't go back to the dormitory, did I hinder her?"

The original owner has been arrogant and domineering before and has offended many people. She can't figure it out if this Wu Lili is one of them.

Zhen Rou hesitated and continued, "Someone explained to her that Ling Xuan is your brother. She still doesn't believe it, saying that you have the blood of the Green Star people at first sight, while Major General Ling is of pure Huanuo blood. Everyone said that even though you were not biologically related, you are still siblings, but she just did not believe them. She said, she said... In short, it's awful..."

Ling Yaoyao stood with her arms crossed in front of her chest, her eyebrows raised. Although she was petite, she was full of the aura of an arrogant lady. She said coldly, "In the end, what did she say? Just tell me!"

Zhen Rou thought, if Yaoyao heard those words from her, it would be better than if Yaoyao heard from elsewhere. So she told her, "She said that you were openly hooking up the second prince, Xiao Ming, before. Now because the second prince didn't like you, you had to change your goal and look at Major General Ling. She also said that you didn't come home at night because you wanted to climb Major General Ling's bed. You were not satisfied to be the adopted daughter of the Ling family and still want to be the young madam of the Ling family... Even your own elder brother was not let go..."

Ling Yaoyao suddenly remembered who is this Wu Lili... After the senior entrance exam, she openly wrote a love letter confession to Xiao Ming on Weibo. She also tagged him and got Xiao Ming's reply.

Her Weibo name is Wuli Kanhua (Looking at a flower through the mist). However, the original owner found someone to check her information, and her real name is Wu Lili.

At that time, the original owner asked the water army to expose some of the things Wu Lili had done in her life, such as hanging several spare tires simultaneously, did not like them but did not refuse. She enjoyed the favors of her suitors with peace of mind. She accepted a hand-made gift from a suitor from an ordinary family background. On the surface, she pretended to be very moved and liked the gift very much, but then she turned around, said "poor ghost," and throw the gift into the trash can without even opened it. She also seduced the boyfriend of a girl who didn't like her, and only a few days after getting together, she broke up with him with the reason that she lost interest...

The original owner exposed all of these green tea bitch behaviors, except for Wu Lili's real name.

Originally, Xiao Ming had a good impression of Wu Lili because of her poetic literary meaning of this girl's Weibo and her innocent and unpretentious style, but because of the meddling of the original owner, Xiao Ming directly blacklisted Wu Lili.

In her real-life circle of friends, many people are aware of Wu Lili's Weibo account, and now they all know her black material.

Even if Wu Lili later bought a lot of water army to cleanse herself, her reputation could not be as good as before. Her image suddenly changed from a pure little white flower to a shameless wild rose.

Wu Lili thought that she would be in the same school as Ling Yaoyao. Even if she becomes an honest person, Ling Yaoyao, the arrogant young lady, would never let her go. So she simply acted first--grabbed Ling Yaoyao's rumor first and then poured dirty water on her.

It's not her fault that the brother and sister behave so intimately. Afterward, they live together at night. Nothing can be made to be a little something!

Wu Lili thought that her reputation is stinking, so Ling Yaoyao should not be allowed to continue to hook up with the second prince cleanly!

After Ling Yaoyao heard what Zhen Rou said, she angrily smiled, "Me? Hook up with my brother? Hahaha... How could I be attracted to Ling Xuan's old-fashioned style who only puts an ice cube face on me all day? Don't you know that he controls me super tightly? This is not allowed. That is not allowed. I like him? Do I have no taste at all?"

Ling Xuan, who went out much later than Ling Yaoyao, just walked into the training ground. The whole training ground instantly became silent. Ling Yaoyao's words were neither too loud nor too quiet, but it became extremely clear at this time. A large group of people nearby could hear her clearly... So, of course, Ling Xuan could hear it with his excellent ears from his SS-plus physique.

Chapter 18(2): Rotten Peach Blossom

 

Although Ling Xuan's iron-fist rule the entire auxiliary therapy department, no one care how it was implemented. Even though he occasionally scanned the students, Ling Xuan only stared at his sister most of the time. The more talkative deputy instructors open one eye and close the other as if they haven't seen any lazy students. Once they fainted, they get the medical robots to inject stamina supplements and awakening agents to wake them up. However, there is no need to double the time strictly like it was in original regulations. As long as they could exercise within the time period, it will be fine.

But poor Zhen Rou has the same weak physique as Ling Yaoyao's and always has to share training equipment with her. She is within Ling Xuan's line of sight. Even if Ling Xuan did not stare at her, she has to follow the double-time punishment obediently. Once again, Ling Yaoyao and Zhen Rou finally left the indoor physical training hall and helped each other to buy nutrients liquid.

Zhen Rou was depressed and said, "Yaoyao, can you suggest to your brother to add a few more flavors of nutrients drinks in the self-service convenience store?"

Ling Yaoyao also had trouble swallowing.

In the morning, she can eat the exquisite breakfast she made herself, which is a treatment comparable to an emperor. At noon, she can eat leftovers from the cafeteria, like a poor person. But this thing for dinner... even a beggar would hate it!

Ling Yaoyao said with a bitter face, "You haven't noticed that my brother has been in a particularly bad mood since he discovered that I was talking about him behind his back?"

However, no matter how ruthless Ling Xuan treated her on the training ground, he just wanted to fulfill her wish that her physique could advance to C-level as soon as possible. He even uses a Biying fruit and mysterious gifts to lure her, so she can't even resist.

There is no other way. Zhen Rou recalled her experience today that was a bit more painful than yesterday and nodded painfully. "...Not only he has no sunshine, but he is also almost frozen."

They sat on the chairs in front of the self-service convenience store, facing each other. When they were about to take nutritional drinks, two food boxes were suddenly handed to Ling Yaoyao.

A tall boy with a mecha badge on his jumpsuit stood in front of Ling Yaoyao. He has a very sunny disposition and a handsome face. Seeing Ling Yaoyao raising her head to look at him, he immediately showed a gorgeous smile. Then he looked a bit shy while scratching his head. "I didn't know about your auxiliary therapy department until I went back last night. I heard that you couldn't keep up with dinner. I have nothing to do anyway, so I got you two more portions."

Food in the cafeteria is not for take-out, only dining plates to be eaten on the spot. This boy can take the food away. Naturally, he has some unusual abilities...

This is the third prince Xiao Zhen, Ling Yaoyao's nominal high school classmate for three years... and someone who has a crush on her.

The current third queen, Mo Ya, is his mother, and Mo Qian, commander of the Glory Legion, is his uncle. It happened that he is also the prince who had the least ambitions for the throne. He is impulsive, passionate, and naive.

In the original novel, he finally moved the original owner by persistence and sincerity so that she agreed to his marriage proposal. However, his immaturity and willfulness could not protect her and only brought trouble to the girl he liked.

For Ling Yaoyao, besides the original male and female protagonists, this person is also listed as a person that she must keep a distance from!

On Star Network, this guy gave her a full negative review of the virtual supplementary food "Fried Cucumber with Perilla" that she sold for the first time, and he also left a message, "It's unpalatable and expensive, everyone shouldn't buy it!"

It is said that because she did not participate in his Xuelan Star travel party, it ruined his romantic confession plan. He turned his anger to her, who was just an "innocent passerby" on the Star Network.

She thought she had already expressed her refusal attitude very clearly by not going to the party, but now it seems that Xiao Zhen obviously didn't mean to forget her.

In other words, he didn't care about her refusal. He just enjoyed the process of his infatuation. He is not reconciled that he knew her first, he liked her first, but in the end, she liked his hypocritical second brother.

Ling Yaoyao looked at the food box that he handed to her and neither accept it nor refuse it.

Compared with the "feeling of eating soil", she was more afraid of picking up his food box. Maybe he would regard it as a signal that he could continue to pursue her.

But if she doesn't pick it up, it will also make him embarrassed... After all, Xiao Zhen is a prince. She can't embarrass him in public.

Zhen Rou only has delicious food in her eyes. Occasionally she pays attention to Ling Yaoyao out of her love of beauty. This sister is more beautiful than her. However... she does not recognize the third prince.

She looked at the two food boxes eagerly, then at Ling Yaoyao. The meaning in her eyes was very obvious—I really want to eat!

The food box contained ordinary meals made by the canteen robot. It was better than "eating soil"!

Just when Ling Yaoyao was hesitant, Xiao Zhen has noticed Ling Yaoyao's unwillingness to pick it up. He directly put the food container on the chair next to them and said, "You guys eat it. I've already eaten. If you don't want it, you can only throw it away. It's not good to waste food. Our camp training is about to begin. I'm leaving now!"

After talking, Xiao Zhen trots away. He just ran a few meters, then looked back at Ling Yaoyao, and found that a girl who was as exquisite and beautiful as a doll was also looking at him. His handsome and sunny face was dazzled. Then with a grinning smile, he waved his hand. "Yaoyao, see you tomorrow!"

The little girl, Zhen Rou, had already swiftly opened the food container. First, she handed one to Ling Yaoyao and took the other one for herself.

The dishes are better than expected. The canteen robots can make the best dishes, and they are also still a bit warm as if they have just been out of the pot.

Zhen Rou assuredly said, "That handsome guy like you!"

Then she ate a bite of the dish and urged Ling Yaoyao, "Yaoyao, eat quickly. We will start running with weights soon!"

They have to run 20 kilometers in the evening, and Ling Yaoyao wouldn't want to trouble her stomach, so she picked up the food box.

Then she secretly made up her mind. She must communicate with her brother about dinner when she goes back tonight!

In the evening, when the load-carrying run was over, Ling Yaoyao was still tired like a dead dog. However, she didn't have the feeling of resentment towards Ling Xuan like last night. On the contrary, she was full of anxiety at the moment.

She put the loaded bag in the designated place, dragged her tired body towards Ling Xuan slowly, and asked in a weak voice, "Brother, are we going back?"

At the night gathering, Ling Yaoyao was fined a lot for being late for half a minute. Zhen Rou, who was only a few steps ahead of her, was not punished. It can be seen that Ling Xuan is deliberately looking for her fault!

She was the last to complete the load-carrying run. Even the two deputy instructors had already left.

Ling Xuan glanced at her and walked ahead with a cold hum.

Chapter 18(3): Selecting a Team

 

Ling Xuan still had some impressions of Xiao Qi, a genius born with SS-level mental power.

If it weren't for an accident that happened afterward, Xiao Qi would have been the second person in the Huanuo Empire, who had the possibility of reaching SSS-level spiritual power, besides him.

Strictly speaking, Xiao Qi could not be considered as part of the Xiao family. And if it is not because he is mentally crippled, he would be a good target for marriage.

"By the way, before I entered school, my mother also introduced me to a beautiful little brother who is said to be the son of her best friend. What is his name... Qiao Ming... something. He is pretty good-looking. He didn't like me, so we wouldn't work out, but fortunately, I didn't like him either."

Ling Yaoyao said this to prove that she was really ordinary.

She even secretly wondered whether Xiao Zhen, who liked the original body, was "Lolicon"? After all, in this era, there are not many sisters who have not reached 165cm in adulthood.

Ling Xuan was in a very bad mood. He felt that his baby was coveted by a bunch of stinky men. Not only these people but there will also be more men in the future.

As an elder brother, he can still disagree with the boys from the Xiao family. But the boy from the Qiao family... he heard that Qiao Mingyuan has a younger brother who is a freshman in the Mecha department?

His sister is so good, but that stinky boy didn't like Yaoyao. He is really blind! But it is also good blindness!

Fortunately, his little girl said that she does not like any of these men...

However, from the perspective of finding a boyfriend, her dislike also includes him.

Ling Xuan asked a question that Ling Yaoyao once asked him, "Then what kind of boy do you like?"

Ling Yaoyao yawned and didn't want to discuss this topic in-depth with her brother. She prefers to go wash and sleep.

She lazily said, "I don't know, I will know when I meet the person. It's hard to say about this kind of thing. You originally thought you would never like the type, but maybe one day you will suddenly like it."

Ling Xuan feels like he got an arrow in the knee.

But seeing Ling Yaoyao's sleepy look, he didn't want to ask more.

The next day, Ling Yaoyao caught up with the cafeteria's dinner time for the first time in three days.

Although she still can't rest after eating but have to go back to the indoor training ground to make up for the delay of the physical training, and then go to the weight-carrying run.

However, this has brought up a new problem.

The lunchtime of the combat department and the auxiliary therapy department are different, which makes it difficult for people from different departments to meet, but the dinner time is the same.

Xiao Zhen sat opposite Ling Yaoyao with a dinner tray. "Yaoyao, what a coincidence! Can I sit here?"

'Dear, haven't you already sat down?'

A national-male-god-level prince sat opposite her, and Ling Yaoyao immediately attracted a lot of hatred!

Luckily she still had to go back and continue training after she had eaten.

It was this time that Zhen Rou found out that this handsome man is the third prince Xiao Zhen from the whispers of others. From Ling Yaoyao's attitude, she felt that Yaoyao didn't care about this highness, so she also accelerated her speed of picking up rice.

Only Xiao Zhen was talking, and the scene was a bit awkward.

However, Xiao Zhen seemed to be completely unaware. He eagerly asked Ling Yaoyao if she was full and if she wanted to add two more dishes. He also praised her, "Yaoyao is so cute when you eat. Your mouth is bulging like a little hamster. But eat slowly, it will be bad if you choke."

Ling Yaoyao's heart collapsed. 'I eat fast because I want to avoid you!'

Wu Lili was carrying a dinner tray and deliberately walked past Ling Yaoyao's dining table. She sneered, turned her head, and said to her roommate that some people are really capable, and they hooked up the third prince Xiao Zhen so quickly. 

However, everyone didn't take her words seriously. It was just the girl who stayed in the same dormitory with her who looked up then immediately looked down. She didn't want to offend Wu Lili, so she had to listen to her.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xiao Zhen is clearly chasing Ling Yaoyao, but Ling Yaoyao is very unwelcome to him.

Not far away, Yan Yifei gritted her teeth as she watched the scene. She walked over with her tray, facing the empty seat beside Xiao Zhen opposite Zhen Rou, and asked in a relaxed and natural tone, "No one sitting here, right? Yaoyao, we haven't eaten together for a long time!"

Ling Yaoyao felt completely lost. Her face was cold, and her tone was even colder when she said, "I'm full. You eat slowly."

In the evening, Ling Xuan, who recently suddenly turned into Ling Yaoyao's confidant brother, found the reason why she and Yan Yifei, who had played with her since elementary school, had recently been estranged.

Ling Xuan could only say, "You will eat dinner with me in the future."

Ling Yaoyao shook her head, "No, I'm afraid that people will say that our family abuses our privilege again. You can bring me two nutritional supplements that taste slightly better every day, and give them to me when we train in the afternoon."

Who said his sister was arrogant and ignorant? She is obviously very good and sensible.

After getting used to the days of military training, time flies quickly.

Soon, it was almost three days of field survival training, which will also mark the end of the military training.

In the past month, Ling Yaoyao's physique has improved to D+, which is always a little short of breaking through C-level.

Zhen Rou has also been promoted from D- to D+. She was originally puzzled at why Ling Xuan stared at Ling Yaoyao so sternly, but she suddenly realized that this is really for Yaoyao's sake!

Other auxiliary therapy students, as long as they strictly follow the standards set by Ling Xuan and do not get lazy sneakily, their physique has also been significantly improved. Some only got a slight improvement, but most of them get a lot of improvements in their physical fitness.

Only then did they realize the benefits of Ling Xuan's strictness. How resentful they were of his psychotic abuse at the beginning, but now they are so grateful to him!

After three days of field survival training, there will be a closing ceremony, and this military training will end.

The students who had originally hoped for survival training in the wild to come sooner to get rid of the psychotic instructor began to be reluctant to give him up.

Many people came to Ling Yaoyao to inquire about Ling Xuan and asked her where he was going to work in the future. Most of these people are girls. They were completely unafraid of the noble and glamorous lady's proud face that Ling Yaoyao pretended to be in front of others.
