Chapter 244: Can You Do One-handed push-ups
Chapter 244
"Who wants to compete with Qin Wei?" Ye Jiahe raised her hand.
Instructor Zheng glanced at her with a serious expression on his face:
"Her teammates are not good enough and neither are her fans. I don\'t know if you guys will go easy on your goose."
Ye Jiahe was dissatisfied:
"Going easy on the injured goose is what\'s fair!"
Instructor Zheng ignored her existence and raised his hand to point at someone who had always performed diligently:
"Little Mango, you go."
"Reporting to the instructor, it\'s Mango Feng Guo!"
As she spoke, a rather good-looking girl walked out of the line-up, went in front of Qin Wei on her own initiative:
"Teacher Qin, I\'m actress Feng Guo, stage name Mango. My major works include..."
"Feng Guo!"
Zheng Qiancheng felt his head buzzing,
"What? Is she acting for you now?"
Feng Guo spread her hands helplessly:
"Reporting to the instructor! This concerns my future so I have no choice but to make this decision against your order..."
She then continued speaking to Qin Wei:
"Teacher Qin, I\'m honored to finally be able to talk to you. I\'m not hiding this from you, I\'ve been paying attention to you ever since you arrived. It may seem like I really want to make it big but that\'s not true, I just have a passion for the acting profession. I was originally an internet celebrity but I really want to act so I entered this industry. However, my career has just started so I\'m hoping esteemed veterans in the industry can give me some guidance. I\'m also your fan, and I wanted to say..."
"Feng Guo! Push-ups! Get ready!"
Instructor Zheng bellowed, interrupting Feng Guo\'s spell. Feng Guo looked at Instructor Zheng regretfully then silently started doing push-ups.
Ye Jiahe nodded to herself and mumbled:
"Mm-hmm, that language organization ability, she\'s definitely a fan..."
Instructor Zheng asked:
"No one dares to challenge Qin Wei? Are you all that much of a coward?"
"I will."
A voice came from within the line-up and everyone looked over. The one who raised her hand was Zhou Fang.
Although she was previously injured, it wasn\'t too serious. She recovered within a week and spent another week rehabilitating. She\'s fine now.
"But she\'s quite nice to Qin Wei too, she wouldn\'t go easy right..."
Someone whispered.
Zhou Fang glanced calmly at the speaker:
"Don\'t worry, as Teacher Ju\'s fan, I definitely won\'t lose to the rival camp so easily."
With Zhou Fang\'s statement, no one doubted that she would go easy on her opponent.
Moreover, she had missed some training previously so her abilities should be on par with Qin Wei\'s.
By now, Zhou Fang was ready.
The two laid side by side on the floor ready to crawl. Instructor Zheng drew a line not too far away then blew the whistle.
The competition had begun.
Zhou Fang advanced at top speed but the one-handed injured Qin Wei was not to be trifled with either.
Unexpectedly, despite her injury, her speed was unaffected. Not only that, she had overtaken Zhou Fang!
"Damn! Qin Wei won even with a limp!"
Someone in the line-up exclaimed in surprise.
Instructor Zheng announced: "Competition over, Qin Wei wins!"
Zhou Fang was not unhappy at all. She had given it her all so winning or losing was acceptable to her and she had good sportsmanship.
Instructor Zheng asked her: "What training do you want to do? It\'s up to you."
"Rock climbing."
...
As one of the more interesting training options with limited choices, everyone was very happy to hear that, certainly more fun than other options.
Outsiders all thanked Senior Sister Qin Wei while her fans thanked their Goose...
And her husband.
Qin Wei asked:
"Can you not call me husband?"
"Then would you prefer we call you wife?"
Qin Wei shook her head as she looked at those fans calling her husband:
"Don\'t call me that so much you actually start believing it. It\'d be pitiful to run into someone as outstanding as me, your husband, yet unable to have me."
"...Oh just shut up..."
...
They went rock climbing while Qin Wei could only sit watch. When she saw Instructor Zheng going over to guide the others, Song Huan walked over and stopped behind her:
"What is it? You made such a big fuss yet now you\'re letting others take over so easily."
"Mm."
Qin Wei gave a sound of affirmation but didn\'t turn her head.
"You\'re highly cultivated. If it were me, I\'d have requested handgun shooting training. After all I could operate it single-handedly and test the results."
As Song Huan spoke, she took a step forward and realized Qin Wei was seriously reading a book.
There would be a closed-book exam on military theory and ideological education tomorrow.
So she just wanted to quietly read her book?
...
The next day, the big conference hall, exam time.
Some kept writing from start to finish during the exam, some scratched their ears and scraped their heads, unable to squeeze out more than a few words. Others had a calm, carefree attitude as they answered the questions.
Only the one-armed injured girl in the corner put down her pen halfway through the exam and took out a Sachima to start eating.
She didn\'t make any sound but Instructor Zheng still noticed.
He quickly made his way over and whispered:
"Qin Wei, who allowed you to eat..."
"Me."
Song Huan also whispered:
"Instructor, I brought her for rehab yesterday and the doctor said she\'s had low blood sugar recently. I was afraid she\'d faint during the 4-hour exam so I specifically went downtown to buy this yesterday when I came back."
Instructor Zheng nodded. After all, there was no rule against eating during an exam. Other than rest days, eating outside the cafeteria was allowed as long as you had the instructor\'s permission, anytime.
"But what\'s with going all the way downtown to buy it? The camp store sells them too, and they have more flavors..."
Song Huan sneered coldly:
"Just to make things difficult! She wanted the sugar-free Sachima from Xinghua Building. Where would we have that here?"
Instructor Zheng was a little confused:
"How did she get you to dote on her so much?"
Song Huan shook her head and pushed Instructor Zheng\'s shoulder to get him to move aside so Qin Wei could focus on her exam. She then said to the instructor:
"Captain, he told me to take good care of her and accommodate her requests if possible until she recovers then the matter will be considered settled. She\'s been wanting strange sugar-free snacks every day, no repeats and increasingly picky."
Instructor Zheng was shocked speechless to hear that. He thought Qin Wei had been going to train with Song Huan every day but instead, she was just eating snacks!
Instructor Zheng asked: "When will she recover..."
Song Huan sighed,
"The doctor said dislocations take longer to heal for adults and it could be minor or major so slower recovery is normal."
"I just gave her the Sachima and she told me she wants pasta now."
Instructor Zheng considered:
"The camp store doesn\'t have that... We don\'t have stuff like that here, not even Italian artillery. Song Huan, will the captain reimburse you for the money?"
"Nope, he said it\'s my retribution."
...
The morning exam ended and after lunch break, physical examinations continued in the afternoon.
With Qin Wei being temporarily unable to participate, there was only the squat stand, side push-up crawl, and 5km run.
Squat stand, good posture, 5 continuous reps, pass;
10m side push-up crawl in 30 seconds, excellent;
5km run in 23 minutes, excellent.
After running 5km, people were truly tired. Qin Wei at the side adjusted her breathing while listening to Song Huan reading out everyone\'s results to her.
"From my observation, with your results you can make top 5 for females but that\'s individual events."
Song Huan casually flipped through others\' results then looked at her:
"Want to try the one-handed push-up? 35 reps in 2 minutes 30 seconds should be enough..."
Qin Wei rejected without even thinking:
"No thanks. Even with both hands I\'d be struggling to meet the 35 reps in 2 minutes requirement. There\'s still the written test results right? Passing overall should be fine."
...
The written test results came out early next morning and Qin Wei was nervous for half a day.
She got her results slip, 190 points.
"Not bad. Our company got full points and you ranked 3rd for individual events."
She received Song Huan\'s approval.
Her fans were more excited than when they themselves scored highly upon hearing of her results —
"Goose is not illiterate! Not only that, she\'s more outstanding than many others!"
Qin Wei was happy for a bit before asking:
"But full marks is 200 points. Who were the top 2?"
