Since the school leaders paid special attention to the military training this year, the required hours of military training are also longer than in the previous years.
The students shall gather at 8 o'clock in the morning and be dismissed at 9 o'clock in the evening.
Between lunch and dinner is a four-hour break.
It was five-thirty in the afternoon when the instructor disbanded them.
Everyone let out a sigh.
Wang Zejing's physical condition is too poor. At this moment, there is a possibility that he will collapse. His whole body is completely lying on and depending on Lei Hongguang and Zhang Kai's bodies.
Upon seeing this, Arthur joked: "Lao Wang, with your physique, you still want to be famous in the entire school? Be careful as it might break your waist!"
"Brother Arthur, aren't you tired?"
Wang Zejing looked at him in disbelief.
You must know that in addition to standing all afternoon, Arthur also did a hundred pushups.
"A little tired, but not as exaggerated as you."
Arthur's physique has been greatly strengthened by the system. What's more, he also set a strict exercising schedule for himself. Thus, both his strength and endurance are incomparable with these guys.
After having dinner in the cafeteria, everyone went back to the dormitory to rest for a while. They waited until 6:30 in the afternoon to set off again to the school grounds.
Not only is the temperature cooler at night, but military training has also become more relaxed. The activities included military songs, chatting, showcasing talents, and the like.
About three hundred students of the Finance Department sat on the ground cross-legged and forming a big circle.
The instructor stood in the circle. His expression was not as serious as in the daytime. And then he asked, "Who can sing military songs?"
The whole audience was silent.
In fact, there must be someone who can sing but was too embarrassed to stand up.
Upon seeing this, the instructor continued: "Since no one knows, then I will teach you a military song. I will sing some lines and then you follow!"
"Being a soldier, I have no difference! Sing" (T/N: from the song 'Being a soldier' - The Military Anthem of the People's Liberation Army)
"Puff!"
It was just the first sentence, but it already made everyone laughed.
They laughed not at the lyrics but at the voice of the instructor.
He was not in tune at all.
The instructor was not angry and instead joked: "You can't stand this already? If you listen to our leader singing, you will laugh to death."
"Hahahaha!"
Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter again.
It is needless to say that a joke has brought the relationship between the instructor and the freshmen a lot closer.
After singing, the instructor also sat cross-legged on the ground and said with a smile: "I can't sing alone. Anyone can show off whatever talent they have."
There were some freshmen who love to express themselves who were about to go ahead and volunteer. But when they saw that no one is taking the initiative, they all held back.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, the instructor glanced at the crowd and called out, "Arthur, come here!"
Arthur was originally blending with the crowd and was bowing his head while messaging Feng Yang.
Despite trying his best to reduce his sense of existence, he didn't expect the instructor to call his name.
No way!
Today is just the first day of military training and the instructor is still completely unfamiliar with the freshmen.
But his performance today impressed the instructor and so he was naturally remembered by him.
He reluctantly stuffed the phone into his pocket and then stood up and walked into the center of the circle.
The instructor patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Be an example. You start!"
"But I don't know what to perform!" Arthur said helplessly.
He had been chatting with Feng Yang and he was not prepared at all at this moment.
"Perform whatever you are good at!"
"I can play the guitar, but my guitar is in the dormitory." Arthur said.
"It's okay, Arthur. I will get it for you!" Wang Zejing shouted from the crowd.
The instructor nodded and said to Wang Zejing: "Okay. I order you to run forward and bring the guitar over in three minutes! Remember, only three minutes!"
"Hahahaha!"
Arthur couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Wang Zejing's face was bitter. He didn't expect to get the guitar voluntarily, but it came with a time limit.
Three minutes later, Wang Zejing came to the school grounds panting with the guitar case.
Seeing him looking like he was going to die any time, the instructor joked: "Oh I didn't know. I thought you were holding a missile!"
"Sit down and rest!"
Arthur took the guitar case and took out his guitar and asked loudly, "What would you want me to play?"
"Far away!"
"Sunny day!"
"Huangmei Opera!"
For a time, everyone spoke out.
Listening to the increasingly outrageous suggestions, Arthur realized that he could not get any ideas from these unreliable fellows.
Holding the guitar, Arthur's eyebrows furrowed as he contemplated.
At this time, Arthur suddenly found Wu Daojun whose big figure could not be hidden behind the crowds.
At this moment, the big guy was blinking his clear eyes and showed an innocent smile and looked at him expectantly.
He smiled and showed two cute dimples.
Seeing this scene, the calm Arthur somehow felt his heart became so fluttering at this moment. Then, a song unconsciously appeared in Arthur's mind.
"Your requests are too difficult to meet. I will play freely!"
After Arthur said that, his fingers gently plucked the guitar strings and a beautiful melody was suddenly heard.
When the melody flowed freely, everyone couldn't help but feel relaxed.
Staring at Wu Daojun, Arthur started to play the guitar and sing. (T/N: Song name: Little dimples – JJ Lin ft. Charlene Choi)
"I'm still searching for
Someone to rely on, and someone to hug
Who will pray for me? Worry for me?
Get mad and fight for me?
…
Little dimples, long eyelashes. These are your most beautiful features
Every day, I can't sleep well, longing to see your smile
You don't know how important you are to me
With you, my life is perfectly complete
Little dimples, long eyelashes.
So irresistibly mesmerizing.
I slowed my pace. It's as if I'm drunk"
…
Daojun's small dimples and long eyelashes are just so recognizable that Arthur can't help but put it in a song.
Arthur's singing skills are actually average. However, he plays the guitar very well and his amateur voice at this moment, brings an untouched sense of affection.
In addition, the song is really great and sweet. Anyone can easily relate to it.
Wu Daojun had already noticed Arthur's gaze and so at this moment, his face was flushed like being drunk.
Because of the tension, his two hands held the military uniform tightly.
This may sound embarrassing. He felt that the song seemed to be dedicated to him.
Thinking of this, Wu Daojun shyly raised his head and took a quick glance at Arthur, and then quickly lowered his head.
Arthur's voice continued sounding in the crowd.
'Badump! Badump!…'
In so quiet crowd, when only that single voice was heard, Daojun somehow his heart settled into a deep, steady thump, a warm melody that resonated throughout his body. It's the first time ever he ever got this feeling.
Is he slowly falling in love right now?
Is it so fast to fall in love?
Is it so easy to fall love?
These abstract and cheesy questions had not ever come to him before. But Daojun is no fools. He thinks... he is slowly getting the hang of it.
Because Daojun knew that he had never been an aggressive person, but right now he just really wanted to be the only one in the audience to hear this song, and wanted Arthur to be near him.
…
'Pa pa pa!'
After singing a song, everyone applauded.
Many girls stared at Arthur with hot eyes.
He is both handsome and talented, who can stand it?
Wang Zejing and Zhang Kai applauded loudly.
"Arthur you are awesome!"
"Arthur, one more song!"
"Arthur, I want to give you a monkey!"
At that moment, many girls also followed and shouted that Arthur play another song.
This lively atmosphere of the Finance Department has attracted the attention of other freshmen from the other departments who cast their curious eyes.
Upon seeing this, Arthur waved his hand and said helplessly: "This is not a solo concert, handsome guys and beauties, please start with your performances!"
