Bab 31: Singing Competition
In the luxurious KTV in the King of Soldiers' training space, Zhao Rui was constantly training his singing ability. He knew that it was common to sing in the academy, so he would soon have the opportunity to show off his singing voice.
Just as he was engrossed in singing a love song, he suddenly stopped.
He said to himself, "Last time when I was competing with the female soldier, Qian Jiang seemed to be staring at the female soldier opposite him."
This memory was very important to Zhao Rui. If it was really as he thought, it shouldn't be difficult to persuade Qian Jiang.
Early the next morning, the wake up signal sounded...
The people in Dormitory 424 sat up upon hearing the sound. As usual, they washed up and sorted out their internal affairs.
However, only Qian Jiang remained motionless. They could vaguely hear his soft sobs. The others looked at each other in dismay.
Although Qian Jiang's cries were not loud, everyone's concern for him did not diminish in the slightest.
Zhao Rui thought of his past experiences and did not complain anymore.
Chi Heng rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked, "Old Qian, why are you crying again? Didn't we agree that it would only be for a week? What are you still thinking about?"
Qian Jiang heard this and quickly wiped the tears from his face. He sobbed and said, "Actually, I don't want to leave either. I have no choice. I really don't want to drag everyone down anymore."
Qian Jiang's personality made Zhao Rui and the others feel helpless.
"There's not much time left. Everyone, quickly tidy up your internal affairs and get ready to gather." Looking at his watch, Zhao Rui urged everyone.
Although Zhao Rui had already made a plan to convince Qian Jiang not to drop out of school, he still felt that he should report it because this plan might require the help and cooperation of others.
It was mealtime in the morning, and every team was singing a loud military song as they walked into the dining hall in an orderly fashion. However, Zhao Rui did not go to the dining hall as usual. Instead, he went to Instructor He Yingbo's office.
When he reached the door, he looked around and found that Instructor He was alone.
"Reporting!"
"Please come in!" Seeing that it was Zhao Rui, He Yingbo put down the document in his hand and asked, "Is there anything you need from me?"
"Sir, Qian Jiang is still determined to quit school, and he is still feeling down this morning. However, I have a plan, and I need your help, Instructor!"
"Please go ahead."
Thus, Zhao Rui explained in detail the plan that he came up with today.
Instructor He nodded after listening. "It's interesting. You can try it out. You have to unite everyone in your dormitory and think of a way together. You can't do it alone."
"Don't worry, Instructor He. I know what to do." With that, he left the administrative building.
Zhao Rui jogged all the way and found Qian Jiang. He decided to act according to the plan.
Zhao Rui patted Qian Jiang's shoulder and asked tentatively, "Qian Jiang, let me ask you something."
"That time when we were competing with the female soldier, I saw you staring at her. Did you fall in love with her?" The corner of Zhao Rui's mouth curled up, revealing a trace of a smile.
Qian Jiang was stunned.
"This..." Qian Jiang's face turned red. He was at a loss for words. He didn't know how to answer Zhao Rui.
He didn't expect Zhao Rui to care about him so much.
Speaking of which, Qian Jiang fell in love with that girl at first sight. Later on, he secretly asked around and found out that the girl's name was Lan Qing. However, up until now, he didn't know anything other than her name. He didn't expect anything.
At this time, Bai Xiaofei and Zhang Cheng seemed to have heard something and immediately surrounded them.
"Hurry up and tell us. In fact, I also found out last time."
"Yeah, yeah. You refused to tell us last time and covered it up. It's time for you to tell us now."
"Are you still my brother?Will we sell you out? Tell us now." They urged him while joking.
Qian Jiang scratched his head and stammered, "I asked around. Her name is Lan Qing. I really don't know anything else. Brothers, I'm telling the truth. You must keep it a secret for me!"
Bai Xiaofei had a playful look on his face and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Old Qian. We will."
Zhao Rui winked at the others, indicating for them to continue the topic.
After being together for a long time, they instantly understood that this time, Zhao Rui was going to use a "honey trap"!
However, this honey trap was not to let the girl contact Qian Jiang directly, but to give him a target! In other words, to give him a reason and motivation to stay.
For the beautiful female soldier Lan Qing, maybe Qian Jiang would stay.
"Brother, since you like her, then be bold and chase after her!" Chi Heng was also very direct. In Chi Heng's opinion, if there was someone he liked, then he definitely wouldn't just crush on her secretly. He would definitely chase after her.
"Maybe the other party has feelings for you too," the few of them agreed.
Zhao Rui sat on his bed and tidied up the military uniform he had taken off. He watched his roommate constantly persuade Qian Jiang. He felt that if Qian Jiang dared to take the initiative like this, then Qian Jiang wouldn't be himself, and he wouldn't have the thought of leaving the Military Academy due to this setback.
Therefore, when there was a goal, he had to strengthen Qian Jiang's heart and let him fight for this goal!
"Qian Jiang, I want to make a bet with you!" Zhao Rui suddenly said to Qian Jiang.
This sentence shocked Qian Jiang.
"Bet?" Qian Jiang was stunned. He shook his head and said, "What bet can we make? I will definitely lose whatever bet we make."
However, when Zhang Cheng heard this, he looked at the two of them thoughtfully and revealed a smile.
As expected, Zhao Rui said, "I won't compete with you in physical fitness or internal affairs. I'll bet with you on who will get with a girl first."
"Get with a girl?" Everyone was stunned and asked in unison. Qian Jiang was even more confused.
"Team leader, what do you mean? You also have a crush on a girl. Quick, tell me who she is." Bai Xiaofei started to gossip with interest.
Zhao Rui didn't directly answer Bai Xiaofei's question. Instead, he said to Qian Jiang, "Let's put it this way. You and I chase a female soldier at the same time. Let's compete to see who can achieve it first and make that female soldier our girlfriend!"
"What? Class Monitor, your competition is going to be interesting!" Zhang Cheng was a little surprised.
Then, Zhao Rui added, "Of course, I can't pursue Lan Qing."
"On one hand, if you succeed, it will be a little too awkward for me to see my younger sister-in-law in the future. On the other hand, it's not appropriate for me to pursue a girl that my brother likes. Although Lan Qing is beautiful, she's not my type, so I'll change my target."
After hearing Zhao Rui's words, Qian Jiang's worried heart finally relaxed.
Hearing Zhao Rui's words, Qian Jiang instantly became interested. "Zhao Rui, I agree to make a bet with you!"
"Okay, then it's a deal!" Zhao Rui was very happy.
