บท 26: Punishment
บรรณาธิการ: Henyee Translations
Zhang Ji could not be bothered to say anything else. He asked the few of them to follow him and finally stopped at an empty space behind the Academic Affairs Office.
This empty space was really an eye-opener for Miao Dong. The professionalism of the training equipment here was far from what the training equipment on the field could compare to. It was really used to train soldiers.
The equipment for low crawling, high crawling, climbing and other activities are all well-prepared.
Zhang Ji pointed at the empty space and said, "The few of you, run two laps! Then stand under the sun for half an hour as punishment! If you don't finish, you're not allowed to go to class or return to the dormitory!"
Miao Dong looked at the equipment in front of her. Although she was a little afraid, she was still relatively at ease. The time for her Combat Power Boost Card was not up yet. Although it would be a little tiring to run two laps, it should not be a problem to complete the mission before the time for the function card was up.
In order to save time, as soon as Zhang Ji gave the order, she immediately ran, ignoring the gazes of the others.
Seeing how enthusiastic she was, Zhang Ji silently agreed that her attitude was not bad. He didn't wait any longer and got up to go to the Academic Affairs Office to deal with Zhou Feng.
Zhou Feng stood obediently in the middle of the Academic Affairs Office, the electric fan above his head spinning leisurely.
The moment Zhang Ji entered, he apologized, "Teacher, I'm sorry."
Zhang Ji closed the door and found an angle where he could see those people running outside the window. Then, he stood upright and looked at Zhou Feng. "You sure know how to enjoy yourself. Stand under the fan and don't let yourself get hot."
After Zhou Feng heard this, he silently took two steps to the side.
Zhang Ji didn't care about his actions and said in a low voice, "Do you think I gave you special privileges to indulge you? It's fine if you climbed over the wall yourself, but you actually dared to bring Miao Dong over the wall last night! Are the school rules just decorations in your eyes? Do you ignore everything I say?"
Zhou Feng lowered his head even more. "Teacher, I wouldn't dare. Yesterday, Miao Dong was locked up in the equipment room by Shen Ming and didn't eat anything for the entire night. I had no choice but to bring him over the wall."
"You can turn to me for help!" Zhang Ji scolded angrily. "Zhou Feng, do you think that I've indulged you too much? That's why you dare to fight so openly! You even dare to fight today. What are you going to do tomorrow? Are you going to fight me too?"
Zhou Feng immediately said, "I wouldn't dare…"
If Miao Dong was here, she would definitely be shocked to see Zhou Feng like this.
Was this still the Zhou Feng she knew? That Zhou Feng who would never let teachers have an easy time even if he had a hard time himself, that Zhou Feng who would never admit defeat and would confront teachers to the end, that Zhou Feng who never listened to class and hit his roommates easily. How could he be like this? He admitted his mistake obediently and even felt a little guilty and regretful!
Zhang Ji exhaled through his nose and calmed himself down a little. He asked, "Tell me, how do you want me to punish you?"
Zhou Feng gritted his teeth and replied after a while, "Teacher, as long as you still let me go out to study and don't expel me, I'll accept any punishment."
"Heh." Zhang Ji was so angry that he laughed. "You still know how to be afraid and how to learn! Why didn't you think it through before you fought today?! If it weren't for your mother, I wouldn't have let you go to the Math Olympiad training class! I've only let you go there for less than a week, and you've already turned the world upside down!"
Zhou Feng clenched his fists even more tightly and obediently accepted the scolding without saying a word.
At the mention of his mother, Zhang Ji's emotions slowly calmed down. His tone softened. "Don't you like to fight? You never get tired, huh? Go out and run ten laps!"
Zhang Ji pointed at the people running and panting outside the window.
Zhou Feng followed Zhang Ji's hand and looked outside. Shen Ming and the other two were still working hard to complete the last part of the second lap. Miao Dong had already finished running and was slumped in the corner, lying on the ground in a sorry state.
Zhou Feng looked at Miao Dong in a daze.
There was something about Miao Dong that attracted him, making him want to approach her involuntarily, but even he couldn't tell what it was.
Now, he looked at Miao Dong lying on the ground without any scruples, panting heavily. Although he was in such a sorry state, Zhou Feng suddenly couldn't look away from him. He finally understood what attracted him to Miao Dong.
It was freedom.
