Zhang Rui narrowed her eyes and said, “Aren’t you afraid that Chief Lu will know that you were the one who caused Chu Yue’s accident?”
Shi Man seemed to have heard a huge joke. She curled her lips into a mocking smile. “Your name is Zhang Rui, right?”
Her gaze shifted away from the tag on her chest and she sneered. “I didn’t expect you to have such an innocent side. Don’t tell me you really think that Chief Lu doesn’t know anything and asked me to replace Chu Yue?”
Zhang Rui was shocked, and her heart was in turmoil. “Are you saying that Chief Lu knows everything, but he still chose to let you replace Chu Yue?”
Shi Man looked at her calmly and said, “Otherwise, do you think Chief Lu is a fool? Why would Chu Yue suddenly go crazy for no reason? Coincidentally, 1 was at the scene.”
She deliberately slowed down and emphasized the last few words.
Zhang Rui’s thoughts were involuntarily led by her, but she instantly understood and her eyes lit up again. “No, 1 don’t believe it. I’ll personally verify if Chief Lu knows the truth of this matter. It’s just that if Chief Lu gets angry at you and doesn’t put you in an important position, you can’t blame me.”
Shi Man shrugged her shoulders indifferently and stood up to leave the office. She couldn’t be bothered to waste time with her.
The army occupied a large area. Although it was lunch break, there was no mess under the office building and on the training ground.
Every phalanx was still lined up in an orderly manner, waiting to enter the canteen.
Therefore, it didn’t take long for Shi Man to find the canteen.
The conditions here were harsh, and the diners could not see any meat or fish compared to the military school. In the army, they would only eat some meat dishes during festive seasons to train their minds. However, there would definitely be the necessary nutritional combination.
Shi Man was very used to such a life. After queuing up to get a meal, she found a corner and sat down.
During this period, from time to time, inquisitive gazes would glance at her from the canteen. She pretended not to see them and kept lowering her head to eat quietly until a man sat down opposite her with a plate.
Shi Man had always been very vigilant. Even in the army, she always raised the spikes on her body.
As soon as the man opposite her entered her safe range, she immediately narrowed her eyes and looked up.
The man’s face was thin and his bones were well-defined. His deep eyes seemed to have magic that could penetrate people. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His rolled-up sleeves revealed half of his thin and strong tanned arms.
He seemed to have just noticed an unknown woman sitting opposite him. After frowning slightly, he looked away and continued to focus on eating.
Shi Man lowered her guard slightly. After eating, she placed the plate in a fixed position according to the rules and turned to walk out.
The most leisure time in the army was the free time after eating.
At this moment, most of the instructors were resting. They did not control the soldiers under their hands, allowing them to do whatever they wanted.
When Shi Man walked out of the canteen, she remembered that there was no dormitory here that belonged to her, so she walked towards the office building, wanting to return to the office to take an afternoon nap.
Unexpectedly, she had only taken a few steps when she was surrounded by a few soldiers in camouflage uniforms.
Shi Man stopped in her tracks and frowned. The smell of sweat from the men wafted through her nose. “What’s the matter?”
The men smiled at each other and sent out an amiable-looking man to inquire. “Sister, are you a new female soldier? Why aren’t you wearing the military training clothes like us?”
Shi Man denied expressionlessly, “No.” Then, she refused to say another word.
Her coldness made the men feel that they had bullied her. That person immediately touched his nose awkwardly and said, “Sister, don’t misunderstand. We’ve been in the army for so long and have never seen such a beautiful female soldier like you, so we’re just curious. Since you’re not here to train, could it be that you’re a new leader?”
However, when they saw that she was about the same age as them and did not look like a leader, they immediately frowned hesitantly.
Shi Man was not a warm-hearted person. She was especially impatient with men, and her expression became colder. “I’m the new instructor here. One of my work arrangements in the afternoon is to be in charge of training. You can meet me then.”
Hearing this, the few of them were stunned.
After being tortured by the inhuman training in the army for a long time, they subconsciously stood up in a military posture when they heard the word instructor.
However, as soon as they straightened their backs, they smiled. “Sister, stop joking. I’m afraid you’re only old enough to join the army and become a recruit.”
Shi Man could not be bothered to explain herself. She turned around and was about to leave.
Unexpectedly, a cold voice suddenly came from behind.. “Who allowed you to put your arms around each other’s shoulders in the army and not follow the rules?”
