The women stood idly while waiting for their instructor to come. Among them, the people from Arts Department and Medical Department stood out of the crowd.
The Arts Department had different requirements for joining the military which made their physique relatively better.
Even their most basic female soldier was eligible to join the dance squad.
Shen Nana, from the Arts Department, looked at the Logistics Department unit.
The Medical Department unit was mostly from theatrical academies. Originally, Gu Yan’s plan was to join them.
The nursing soldiers arrived just now. They resembled swans as they stood tall and pretty.
On the other hand, the presence of soldiers from other units was rather low-key.
Save for some exceptions. Guo Rou, who was tall and strong, stood out among her peers and caught plenty of attention for herself.
Quite some people recognized her, including Lin Xiaoyu, who was standing next to her.
It was no surprise, however. Guo Rou and Lin Xiaoyu both came from elite families. Their distinction was well-received even from the Arts and Medical Department units.
Some people took notice of Gu Yan as well.
In the past few months, Gu Yan has bloomed. No longer hampered by her difficult background, her beauty seemed to have blossomed, and her temperament deepened.
Of the things that changed, her patience was most admirable. Calm and graceful, but ruthless when necessary.
All of the women were clad in the same uniform which made the collective appear cohesive.
Safe to say that everyone was unaware of each other’s backgrounds and personalities.
The only point of comparison was… their faces.
As the female soldiers were whispering amongst themselves, someone suddenly yelled, “Greetings, Commander!”.
The crowd went quiet immediately and assumed their ‘at attention’ stance.
The commander of the twenty-six special training squads, Tang Ruidong, was walking at the very front. Next to him was Jiang Wanglin, and a few steps behind was Li Haili with the captains of the other squads.
Gu Yan was not familiar with any of them, but she was aware that this group was at least captain-level.
She briefly remembered that Tang Ruidong was collected and righteous. He was quite capable and had a great future ahead of him. Unfortunately, he fell ill and developed lung cancer which forced an early retirement. It was quite a pity.
Tang Ruidong was still young. Not even in his fifties yet. Gu Yan wondered, ‘If he dropped smoking and alcohol, would it relieve his body of the illness?’
Suddenly, Gu Yan sensed a stare directed at her.
She glanced around and spotted at the back of the crowd, the handsome Lu Ye in his uniform, looking sharp as always. He was staring at her. He was smiling, and his eyes flashed with vibrance.
Gu Yan understood, just from the look of things, that he had a lot to say to her.
She felt the same.
Yes, they shared a mutual feeling despite having not spoken to each other yet.
It was rather bitter-sweet. An itch that cannot be satisfied. At the back of their minds, they were longing for privacy to talk.
Gu Yan looked around and sighed. There were at least a few hundred light bulbs here. She really couldn’t ignore it.
Clearly, Lu Ye could tell this wasn’t the right time as well. He was fixated on Gu Yan, until Tang Ruidong exclaimed loudly.
