Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1354

Considering the unshakable military discipline, Edgar and Maggie had to keep a distance from each other while on campus no matter how close they usually were outside the school. After all, Edgar was the commander in chief of instructors, while Maggie was only a trainee.

Being mobbed by Benjamin and Monica for details of her holiday, Maggie took advantage of what happened on Dragon Island to evade the crucial point, while gifting them with presents. After all, the fact that she and Edgar had visited the base camp of Dragon Island and that she and Addison had then studied further how to alter ballistic range was confidential and could not be revealed.

"Well, it's rumored that we will have two new instructors tomorrow," Benjamin suddenly shared.

Maggie frowned and looked at Benjamin with confusion.

"Don't you know?" Benjamin found she had not expected the news so he questioned, "Your captain never told you about it?"

Maggie shook her head frowning.

Amy couldn't tolerate Benjamin anymore and laughed at him, "As you know, her captain is always busy flirting with her, so how could he possibly find the time to tell her something like that? It will be announced tomorrow after all." When she finished speaking, she winked and gave Maggie a broad grin.

Maggie was thick-skinned when it came to her acquaintances, especially with Monica and Benjamin. Hearing her sarcastic remark, Maggie shook her head with pride and didn't give a damn. However, she froze after hearing from Benjamin who exactly those instructors were.

"It's reported that one of them has overseas experience, while the other one is a military genius who, although not involved in a field of study, is still a legend." After a second's thought, Benjamin lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "In addition, there's another girl who comes from S Army. She's already made the rank of lieutenant at such a young age. Well, what's her name..." Through great effort, he eventually remembered and uttered words Maggie didn't want to hear. "It's Claire Qin! She is well-known in the artillery brigade."

Maggie's lips trembled with instant rage and she couldn't believe her ears. "Pardon? What's her name again?"

"Claire Qin!" Benjamin was one hundred percent sure, but he was confused by Maggie's pale face. "What's wrong? Why are you acting so weird?" The colour had left Maggie's face completely and she trembled violently.

She glanced at Monica who was also curious about her reaction, and then looking at Benjamin, she ground her teeth and admitted, "She is my rival in love."

"A-ha..." Monica had never imagined such an answer from Maggie, so she rolled her eyes to show her contempt to Maggie. "Is that all? Please don't forget that you're now married to your captain. Is there still any need to treat her like an enemy?"

"Couldn't agree more!" Benjamin echoed, and then shifted the topic to something else. "I think you shouldn't forget about the military genius." He was really excited and kept talking. "Although I'm not sure about his name yet, and didn't manage to get any more juicy details, it is widely reported that he is quite a handsome guy. What matters the most is that he is supposedly very nice, and was elected as the perfect companion at night and the ideal partner by local voters." He held an evil grin and finished his disclosure dramatically. "And someone you would want to sleep with!"

Maggie was struggling with an awkward mixture of emotions and she couldn't explain it yet, but she knew that it had to do with Claire coming to serve as her new instructor. However, she had no idea why, but when Benjamin was talking about the new talent, she felt uneasy as if it was a natural instinct to react to the unknown risks or dangers.

Formal training was scheduled to kick off tomorrow.

Since there were quite a large group of people due to receive the training, and the two newcomers would also be joining in, it was necessary for Edgar to organize a brief meeting beforehand.

It didn't take a genius to see that Claire was incredibly feverish when she again got the chance to meet Edgar. However, as an instructor who had just come to the school and hardly even had a chance to unpack her belongings, Claire had heard nothing about the gossip concerning Maggie and Edgar, since most of the students were still on their vacations. This was why she immediately flashed an air of romance in front of Edgar. Besides, her designs on him could not be hidden by any ambiguity at all despite their long separation.

Edgar, however, kept a distance from Claire while remaining silent and aloof. Meanwhile he looked at the gentleman with a plain smile who was sitting not far away from him. So after exchanging a brief greeting with Claire, Edgar stretched out his hand and greeted the man, "Hi, I'm Edgar Gu."
