Chapter 52 - Accident

When the morning light shone upon Mt. Qimin the next morning, Su Yan was still blissfully unaware of the accidents and traps her group would be facing.

They were still following behind Wu Mu and Yuan Yang, evidently wanting to continue leeching off the two of them. But was Wu Mu such a fool? Clearly not.

As a result, Su Yan and her group had suffered many “accidents” that day, such as traps that suddenly appeared under their feet, broken branches above their heads, unknown plants that caused their bodies to itch, various poisonous insects, mosquitoes, and even poisonous snakes!

The entire group was on the verge of a mental breakdown. There was not a single part of their bodies that wasn’t in a sorry state. Their experience today was a thousand times more painful than the day before!

Yuan Yang and Wu Mu hid in a hidden place. Looking at the group’s miserable expressions, they almost died of laughter.

Yuan Yang patted Wu Mu’s shoulder and touched the tears at the corner of his eye with his other hand. He said, “Your insects and snakes were released at the right time! Amazing!”

“The itchy grass you found is also very bad! It’s not inferior to mine!” Wu Mu smiled and punched Yuan Yang lightly.

Their military training today was very entertaining and enjoyable!

Some people were happy, while others were sad. While Wu Mu and Yuan Yang were still feeling happy that Su Yan and the others had been tricked, Su Qian looked at Su Qing, who was sitting opposite him and eating quietly. He was so worried that she was not going to forgive him.

Kong Yue had already told him what had happened. Knowing that he had misunderstood her and even caused her to be reprimanded, Fifth Young Master Su felt a little guilty.

Su Qian coughed lightly and said awkwardly to Su Qing, “Where are you going today? I’ll give you a lift.”

Su Qing didn’t stop what she was doing; it was as though she didn’t hear Su Qian’s words at all.

When Kong Yue saw this, she smiled and became the peacemaker. She said, “Qingqing! Coincidentally, your fifth brother doesn’t have many classes today, so let him send you there. Didn’t you say yesterday that you still have something to do today?”

After drinking her milk, Su Qing picked up a towel to wipe her mouth and said calmly, “There’s no need. Someone will be picking me up.”

She looked at her watch. It was almost time. After bidding farewell to Kong Yue, Su Xing, and Su Lu, who had just returned from a business trip, she turned around and left. She didn’t look at Su Qian the entire time, as if he wasn’t there at all.

Su Lu had just returned and didn’t know what had happened. Seeing that the atmosphere was off, he asked, “Su Qian, what did you do? Why did you make Su Qing ignore you?”

Su Qian looked at his third brother with a helpless expression. This little girl, Su Qing, was quite angry. He had already taken the initiative to talk to her and given her a way out, so why wasn’t she willing to give in?

Su Qing couldn’t be bothered to think about Su Qian. In her eyes, she couldn’t acknowledge Su Qian as her “brother” for the time being, because he didn’t have the ability to distinguish right from wrong at all. He was a little similar to the domineering Su Zheng. What a waste of his good looks!

Su Qing actually liked good-looking people very much. She had a natural liking for such people, even though it wasn’t obvious, just like how she liked her three other brothers and even Huo Qi. Although this liking was rarely shown on her face, it was really there.

Take Huo Qi for example. If it weren’t for the fact that he was really good-looking, Su Qing would have broken his hand when he touched her.

Speaking of which, today was the last day of military training. At about three in the afternoon, the new students in Mt. Qimin had already started to gather at the foot of the mountain. They had to reach here before the school’s transport arrived. Otherwise, they would have to think of a way to return on their own.

Xing Lei was standing on the same gigantic rock he stood on the first day of the training. He held the loudspeaker in his hand and shouted at the students sitting scattered below, “Stand up! Why are all of you seated on the ground? Has this low level of training worn you down to this state? Find a pond and take a look at yourselves. All of you look like you escaped from a famine. You’re really useless!”

The reason why Xing Lei was so angry was because the freshmen this year were not as good as the previous batch. Half of the supply points set up in the mountains had not been found by them. The stamina and survival skills of these students were really too poor.

The new students lowered their heads and let Xing Lei scold them. They felt that it was already very impressive that they could come out alive. This Xing fellow was simply a pervert!
