Chapter 51: Pledge of Allegiance
“I’m sorry,” Zhong Ling said ashamedly, feeling that she had caused Wu Mei to suffer ridicule and cold eyes.
Wu Mei, however, didn’t seem to mind. She simply held Zhong Ling’s waist firmly and used her movements to get Zhong Ling to feel the new and key points to exerting strength.
“Use your own strengths to train instead of just following fixed methods. Brute force is not advisable.”
“It seems… possible!” Zhong Ling’s eyes were instantly filled with joy.
When Wu Mei let go of her hand, Zhong Ling tried using her method. She actually lasted a few seconds longer than when she used the method Bai Xue had taught her!
Those few seconds were enough for her to see hope.
Zhong Ling followed Wu Mei’s instructions and continued to train. However, this attracted the attention of the surrounding new cadets. They sneered and asked, “Zhong Ling, what are you doing?”
“This is the method that Wu Mei taught me. It’s very effective in training.”
Zhong Ling demonstrated it in front of everyone. The rookies were all amazed. The truth was right in front of them, and it went to show that it was effective. Hence, they were all tempted and started training the same way.
When Bai Xue returned and saw the chaos, she was extremely unhappy when she heard that it was Wu Mei’s method.
“You’d better focus on your training. Don’t think about any unorthodox methods. Although it can improve the effectiveness of your training in a short period of time, it will destroy your foundation in the long run and cause you to fall behind your companions! Don’t you have brains? Don’t you know how to distinguish between what’s real and what’s fake?!”
In order to save her face as the instructor, Bai Xue mocked.
The rookies were all fence sitters. They were afraid and quickly gave up on Wu Mei’s training method. Only Zhong Ling secretly continued. After all, this was her only chance!
Leaning against the parallel bars, Wu Mei looked at Bai Xue with a mocking smirk. She found Bai Xue’s actions childish and laughable.
In the world of special agents, abilities were everything!
During the break, Wu Mei looked at Zhong Ling, who was able to grasp the key points with just a few pointers. She admired her comprehensive ability and nodded in relief. She took out two handkerchiefs for them to wipe their sweat and said, “Drink some water. Health is wealth.”
“Okay.”
Looking at the new cadets who had gathered in twos and threes, Zhong Ling realised Qi Feng was nowhere to be seen. She asked in bewilderment, “What’s he up to now?”
When Wu Mei heard this, she looked towards the instructors’ resting area and smiled.
Holding a bottle of mineral water and a bottle of energy drink, Qi Feng looked at Bai Xue who was sitting on the steps. He faced the glass and deliberately neatened his messy hair. Then, he walked over and said, “Instructor Bai, which one would you like to drink?”
Bai Xue was upset. When she turned around and saw that it was him, she remembered that he had helped her fight Wu Mei. She took the bottle of mineral water and said, “Thank you.”
Qi Feng noticed that she did not look happy. He turned to look in Wu Mei’s direction and asked, “Instructor Bai, are you unhappy because of Wu Mei?”
Bai Xue said, “As instructors, of course I hope that all of you are outstanding. If all of you can enter the Ministry of Defense, I will definitely be happy.”
“But…”
Out of the corner of her eye, Bai Xue saw Qi Feng’s confused expression. She sighed and said on purpose, “Wu Mei has messed up the relationship balance in the Ministry of Defense because she came in through connections. If she successfully passes the evaluation, there will inevitably be more of such people joining in in the future.”
“Then wouldn’t our honor as agents be ruined by her?”
“By then, will the identity of the Ministry of Defense Special Agent still intimidate the terrorists? Wouldn’t it become a joke?”
Bai Xue pretended to be troubled as she said, “Actually, I’ve told my superiors about this, but… Wu Mei’s connection is really too strong.”
“I’m frustrated at myself for being useless!” Bai Xue watched as Qi Feng clenched his fists and frowned. She was secretly laughing inside.
His skills were not bad and he was simple-minded. He was a ‘good sword’ that could be used!
Qi Feng looked at Bai Xue and thought about her every word. He understood Bai Xue’s so-called “difficulties” and patted his chest as he assured her, “Don’t worry, Instructor Bai. As long as I’m here, I won’t let Wu Mei pass the evaluation!”
“This…”
Bai Xue pretended to be troubled and tried to persuade him, “You and her are both new cadets. Don’t be rash.”
Qi Feng stood up and said, “I definitely won’t use any dirty tricks. Of course, this is a personal grudge between Wu Mei and me. It has nothing to do with Instructor Bai!”
His words were a pledge of allegiance to Bai Xue. If he can help her resolve this problem…
Perhaps, he would be able to get a leader in the Ministry of Defense who would take care of him! Qi Feng thought to himself. He looked at Wu Mei and scoffed as he thought about how he could defeat her!
