Chapter 11 Bloody Fight

[T/N: literally gave him a pair of white eyes without mercy]

　　Because of her ankle injury, the instructor gave Xie Xiang a week off. Seven days later, Xie Xiang's injury was completely healed, and she resumed training.
　　In this class, the instructor asked the trainees to do sit-ups in pairs. Xie Xiang was unlucky and put in a group with Gu Yanzheng, so he had to kneel and sit on Gu Yanzheng's feet, pressing his legs with both hands.
　　"Hey, don't you think that Hua Mulan* has been in the army for so many years and no one has discovered that she is a woman. How did she pretend?" Gu Yanzheng took a look at her thin body and thought that there is little hope of thinking about letting her take the initiative to confess, but it is still necessary to casually tease.

[T/N: Hua Mulan is a legendary folk heroine from the Northern and Southern dynasties era of Chinese history. According to legend, Mulan took her aged father's place in the conscription for the army by disguising herself as a man. I'm pretty sure that almost everyone who will read this already knows her
^ - ^]

　　Xie Xiang's face changed slightly, her expression became a little unnatural, and she just bowed her head and ignored him.
　　Xie Xiang ignored it, and naturally Huang Song rushed to talk, "Maybe her teammate is too stupid."
　　Gu Yanzheng immediately retorted vocally, "Do you think everyone is as stupid as you? This is unscientific."
　　Instructor Song came over and kicked Gu Yanzheng fiercely, "Do it well, what's the matter with you!"
　　Gu Yanzheng had a pain in his calf and sat up abruptly, ignoring that Xie Xiang was right in front of him.
　　Two pair of lips met, Xie Xiang was stunned, and leaned back and sat on the ground. When she reacted, her heart throbbed so hard, her cheeks burst red, and she kicked Gu Yanzheng's calf fiercely, looked around for a while, and ran out with her mouth in a panic.
　　"Xie Liangchen, what are you going to do, is the training over yet?" Instructor Song was about to catch up, but was pulled by Gu Yanzheng. Gu Yanzheng looked like he had gotten a big deal at this time. "Instructor, Instructor, I just kissed her and Xie Liangchen ran away because of her thin skin and embarrassment."*

[T/N: Gu Yanzheng was indeed using 'her' here. It's just that both he and her in Chinese sound the same, so they didn't know]

　　"What are you doing as a big man kissing him?"* Instructor Song glanced up and down at Gu Yanzheng, shook his head, and turned around to ignore him.

[T/N: now I'm confused ಥ_ಥ, the instructor used her but I don't think he knows Xie Xiang is a girl, so probably it's just a typo]

　　"Instructor! What is with your look!"
　　The students all laughed, only Li Wenzhong was looking at the direction Xie Xiang was leaving.
　　The kissing incident in the morning hit Xie Xiang quite a bit, and she was depressed all day. As soon as the sky darkened, Huang Song took Xie Xiang out to play, claiming to take her to relax, but in fact he was a drunkard. Xie Xiang knew it, but didn't tell it. With this friend by her side, her heart doesn't seem to be so uncomfortable anymore.
　　Arsenal Military Academy is located in a remote area, there are no recreational places within a few miles, there is only Shannan Tavern. The proprietress of the tavern is Xie Xiang's old acquaintance. Because Tan Xiaojun works here, Xie Xiang always came to her, and became acquainted with the people in the tavern.
　　The name of Shannan Tavern's owner is Huo Xiaoyu. She is still in her early forties. She has a pair of slightly raised peach eyes and a mole at the corner of her eyes. She is very attractive. She is also well-maintained, exquisite, and elegant. The strange thing is that such an all-powerful resource is not matched by unscrupulous people.
　　Listening to Xiaojun, there is a box of costumes and tiara in Huo Xiaoyu's warehouse. When she was young, she should have been a famous character. If you don't talk about it, she will definitely be sought after because of this figure, not to mention that she still has one. Good voice, but have never heard her sing for so many years.
　　Could it be a love story between an actor and an officer? Xie Xiang once heard such a passage in a teahouse, saying that it was a Peking actor who admired a young officer who admired her back. The officer promised that he would marry her when he came back from the battlefield. However, this return trip never happened again. Since then, the actor only sang the play "The Peony Pavilion".* I heard that this was what she sang when she met the officer for the first time. In this way, in the endless waiting and suffering, the actor passed away suddenly.
