Debra Huo went to a business trip in next day after the domineering words that he made that night.
He had been very busy in these years and he nearly spent all of his time on flying around the country.
Laura Su could feel free when he was out.
However, Uncle Pan would be stricter with her when Debra Huo was on business.
She was never allowed to go to visit her friends and she was required to go home directly when she finished the classes.
All the things that she wanted to do must be agreed by Uncle Pan.
And that annoyed her so much.
It was so lucky that there came the collective military training.
There was almost the end of such days of restraint.
Because military training was closed collective activity.
Besides, training was in deep mountains and forest, so the accommodation condition would be so bad.
For her, it would be okay once she was not restrained by others. So, she would not mind even if it was so bad.
However, she was so shocked when she arrived at the dormitory.
It was a room for four people and the bed was a wood board; even the hot water in the bathroom was under strict control.
Nancy Xi laid on the bed and she felt so disappointed, "Oh my, the closed one, fifteen days. Fifteen days!!!"
Although military training had been shortened, they could not contact with outside world and their phones were submitted too.
How could such isolated days be so long?
Fifteen days!
Laura Su put down the things and she encouraged herself, "Laura, you can make it!"
"Ding ding ding"
There came the belt of collective training before everybody got ready.
Their teacher had reminded them on their way to the training that they should obey orders when they came to the troop, and the belt was the order.
So, these ladies ran out when they heard the belt although they did not get ready.
Soon, the playground was filled with the freshmen of Xinghan College.
The military instructor was a 30-year old man. He looked so dark and strong. He was in a strict face with strong aura.
He was surrounded by four or five men in military uniform, but their titles were not as high as his.
"Hello, everybody. I am Scott Zhao and I am the chief instructor in these fifteen days. I know that you are from the most famous exclusive private school in Austral City, and all of you are from wealthy families with tens of millions of assets; however..." The instructor looked at them coldly, "You must obey our arrangement when you come to our training base, even though you are so wealthy; otherwise, we will treat you with the strictest method!"
Then, he looked at everybody and continued, "Do not challenge the authority of our instructors, and do not trick us. In the base, girls are deemed as boys and boys are deemed as animals. Now, you just run. 800 meters for girls and 1000 meters for boys!"
Many students were shocked, what?
They should run 1000 meters at the very beginning?
"Instructor Zhao, it has been eleven o’clock. We just arrive here by bus and we haven’t drink or eat a bit, but you tell us to run 1000 meters? Are you kidding me?" a boy was so unhappy, and he shouted there.
"Great, it is so great. Come here and tell me, what’s your name?"
"I, I am Frank Liu."
"Okay, Frank Liu, you should have a run of 1500 meters."
"What?" Frank Liu was shocked.
"Who allows you to speak without reporting? Who allows you to doubt your instructor? Go, now! It would be 500 meters more if you still have a complaint!"
The voice of Instructor Zhao sounded like a magic curse without mercy.
Other students also had complaints, but their parents had signed the paper before they came to the base, so they must obey the arrangement.
So, the cellphones were submitted, and it was a traffic jam. Besides, the door was closed.
So, it was so easy to torture them in such a desolate place.
Everybody thought about it and they decided to run. As to protest, they would discuss with each other after the running.
Hence, the group of spoiled students started to run.
After the 800-meter running and 1000-meter running, all girls were so tired, and the boys were out of breath although they were in better health.
After all, they were the wealthy offspring,
All of them were delivered by limo, one thousand meters?
They were reluctant to walk even though it was only five hundred meters.
"Now, it is time for lunch." Instructor Zhao shouted at the students lying on the playground.
They complained that they were so tired that they could not have lunch.
"It is only half hour for lunch and then you all would have meal at night. There is no snack or midnight snack!" Another instructor said loudly.
"Nancy Xi , stand up. Let’s have lunch." Laura Su was in red face, but she still stood up and dragged the still Nancy Xi .
"Holly! I am too tired, and I almost die…" Nancy Xi was gasping hand. All she wanted was to have a rest.
"Get up. I hold you there. There will be training afternoon and you must not bear it if you don’t have a lunch." Laura wiped her patiently and hold her up slowly.
Nancy Xi grabbed her arms and she put her whole body on the weak Laura, "Laura, you are so sweet. I am so painful since it is time for menstruation…"
"It doesn’t matter. I will stand by you. Let’s ask for leaving if you could not bear it!"
Nancy Xi nodded vaguely, and she was too tired, to say one word.
Actually, two legs of Laura Su were trembling, but no one would find it.
She knew that her father had told her that you should be brave no matter what happened to you.
Nancy Xi would not bear it if she collapsed.
Students came to the dining room and they were dazed when then looked at the food.
"Look, is it the food for pigs?" boys were shouting.
There was cabbage, fried meat with eggplant, seaweed soup, steamed bun, rice and one apple.
"You come for training, instead of enjoying!" Instructor Zhao looked at them and said directly, "You could get out if you dislike or hate to eat them, but you should not blame me if you guys could not bear the training in this afternoon!"
The girls were murmuring, and they thought their dogs would be treated with better food.
"So bad." Nancy Xi frowned, "I miss the meal made by the chef in my house. I want to have a steak and I want to have a French meal."
Laura Su ate a little bit. She said nothing but she stopped eating.
"Hey, Laura, Laura…" Looking at the dazed her, Nancy Xi could not help calling her.
"What?"
"What’s wrong with you?"
