Chapter 395: Yet Another New Instructor

This was Old Master Lu’s certitude.

However, only later did she find out that it was not the truth. What Old Master Lu truly despised was not her occupation as an actress.

Lu Qin was an actor, but Old Master Lu had never condemned him; Su Muran was also an actress, but Old Master Lu was always courteous to her. Finally, Yan Huan understood. Old Master Lu abhorred her for her family background, for her being an orphan, for her not having parents.

When he battered Lu Qin, Yan Huan swore to stay forever faithful to Lu Qin.

When Old Master Lu was young, he had a wife and a mistress. Polygamy was not something unusual back in that time. Lu Qin’s father was the son to the mistress. Hence, he was hardly respected in the family. On the other hand, Lu Yi’s highly educated grandmother came from a noble family. After Lu Yi joined the military and was given a military title, his footing in the family had become unyielding.

However, after Lu Qin’s father passed away in an accident, Lu Yi was ostensibly the lawful descendent of Lu Family, causing Lu Qin’s standing in the family to become rather awkward. Therefore, if Old Master Lu could punish Lu Qin, there was no reason for Lu Yi to be excused.

Little wonder that she found a number of scars on Lu Yi’s body.

“The old man gave you these scars, right?”

“He’s my grandfather,” Lu Yi gently stroke her hair as though he was combing her hair, “I triggered him when I married you. I was certain that he would intervene in my marriage by force. To prevent that from happening, I prepared everything before I was 30 years old. However, that provoked him as well.”

“I deserve this.”

Yan Huan gave a chilling and scornful smile. Other than the three of them from Lu Yi’s instant family, none of the Lu Family, including the Old Master Lu, was a kind soul. Since the previous life, the Old Master Lu had always been a brute.

However, she had nothing to be afraid of if she had money and power.

Therefore, she wanted both money and power.

What wrong had she done in being an actress? An actress was not a thief, robber or murderer.

“I dislike your grandfather,” Yan Huan said in a straightforward manner, “If I happen to fight with your grandfather, whose side will you take?”

As he tidied her hair, Lu Yi answered, “You’re my wife. If that happens, I’ll defend you.”

Yes. He would defend her. He would protect her with his life.

Yan Huan opened the door and exited the car. Neither did she explicitly offer her forgiveness, nor did she exhibit her resentment. Nonetheless, a small damper in her heart had been solved although the major hindrance had yet to be removed as the time had not come. She needed more time.

Lu Yi leaned backward. For the first time in his life, he thought that strong-willed lady was adorable. His smile grew broader and broader.

Half a month later, she had almost recovered completely. She was able to carry out the basic training even though she could not train for a prolonged period of time. There was only a month left before Yan Huan’s departure from the army.

The new year was around the corner.

White snowflakes fell from the sky. She reached out to catch one of the snowflakes. The moment the snow touched the tip of her finger, it began to melt, causing her to feel a chill down her spine.

Huang Mengmeng walked in her direction and took a seat beside her. She exhaled gently before she caught one of the snowflakes too.

“New year is coming.”

“Yes...” Yan Huan raised her head, allowing the snow to fall on her skin. After the winter, her complexion had returned to being fair. Her initially pale face seemed to be even fairer, almost diaphanous. Despite exposing herself to the sun and the rain everyday, her skin remained perfect. Now, she appeared to be even healthier with her rosy cheeks.

“The weather has been good.” Huang Mengmeng leaned on Yan Huan’s shoulder as she stared at the woman before her. Yan Huan’s lips were red and teeth were white. Standing under the strong winds and freezing weather, she continued to stay like a pure, soft and delicate tofu.

Yan Huan touched her face as she replied with a silent smile.

“Tell me what have you been eating to gain yourself these healthy rosy cheeks?”

Huang Mengmeng leaned closer to Yan Huan. Just like every other woman in this world, she constantly wanted to look prettier and was dying to know Yan Huan’s secret to the perfect skin. Being a female soldier who worked under the scorching sun all day, their skin was rough like the men. However, Yan Huan’s complexion remained fair, soft and smooth. It made Huang Mengmeng envious, wanting to kneel down before Yan Huan, the goddess, and worship her.

“I merely ate as usual.” Another flake of snow landed on Yan Huan’s hand. It was impossible for her to produce meals different from her comrades’ in the military base. Their meals were all cooked by the kitchen. Three meals a day with meat, vegetables and soup. Even their meal times were fixed. These meal plans were more than sufficient to sustain one’s health. Thus, she had never had extra meals or dietary supplements. Moreover, the man was in the military base with her now and could not smuggle food for her anymore. Despite the fact that she had once or twice snuck in some food, that was not enough for her to gain any fat or nutrients from it.

She had a long way to go before she could grow fat.

“Then...” Huang Mengmeng gently poked Yan Huan’s cheek, “Are you keeping any secrets to yourself or taking any dietary supplements?”

“No.” Yan Huan removed her hand. She exhaled, releasing a cloud of warm breath, as her lips slowly formed into a grin. If I have to list out something, then...

Maybe it is caused by the merging of two souls and bodies?

“Tell me. What happened?” Huang Mengmeng was still an innocent young girl.

Yan Huan smiled, not saying a word.

When Huang Mengmeng was about to throw another question at Yan Huan, she heard the command to assemble the soldiers.

“What is this?” Huang Mengmeng pouted, “I’ve barely sat down for a few minutes. Now they’re assembling us again. Do they not know that we’re supposed to rest after a meal?”

“Exercise is essential for our lives.” Yan Huan stood up, ready for the training.

“Nonsense!” Huang Mengmeng cursed furiously, “Rest is essential for our lives. Look at the tortoises that hardly move around. How long is their lifespan?”

Yan Huan could not argue with that.

Regardless of their reluctance, they had to gather.

Lu Yi stood by the side. His gaze paused on Yan Huan, as though he wanted to express something but his words were stuck in his throat. Yan Huan could not comprehend his gaze. She stood still as her hunch told her that something bad was going on.

It seemed like an important person was coming.

The instructor walked to the front and clapped her hands.

“I’m very honoured to introduce you all to a new instructor today. She will be in charge of your combat training in the future. She’s a female soldier, just like the rest of you. Yet, she is adept at combat and wrestling. Let’s give her a round of applause.”

The troops proceeded to applaud to welcome the new instructor.

Before long, a female soldier who was in her military uniform, walked to the front. She was decent looking and carried a distinctive aura. It was evident that she was a seasoned soldier with years of experience. Her chin was up and her nose was tall. The only thing that did not look good on her face was her rather big nostrils which compromised her appearance. Without the big nostrils, her look would be slightly above average. But, with the big nostrils, she barely looked average and would never stand out among the crowd.
