Sweet Beauty

Chapter 314 - We Can’t Be Lovers, But Can’t We Be Friends

Yao Xiaosheng was very angry. It was one thing for Liang Zixuan to take revenge on her, but what was this Shi Jian's worth?

What right did she have to take revenge on her?

"Who do you think you are? It's not your turn to speak here!" Yao Xiaosheng had a condescending look on her face, as if she was looking down on everyone.

Shi Jian became furious when she heard this. "So what if I say something? Can't we have freedom of speech? Oh, so you're the only one who can say it, but others can't? Who do you think you are?!"

"Shh..." Liang Zixuan suddenly raised her hand, put her index finger to her lips, and whispered, "The instructors are here. Stop talking."

Shi Jian took a glance and everyone immediately rose from the ground and stood up.

Each class had two instructors. Liang Zixuan's class instructors were tall and strong. They wore the same camouflage uniform as them, but their temperament was clearly stronger than these eighteen or nineteen-year-old teenagers.

"Hello everyone! I am your instructor. My name is Gong Enlai. You can call me Instructor Gong. And this..." He pointed at the person standing next to him and said, "Instructor Bai. I will be responsible for your daily training. He will take care of your meals and rest time."

"Gong Enlai?" Yao Xiaosheng laughed softly. "This name is the same as the hero in a wuxia movie."

Although she spoke softly on purpose, her voice still reached Gong Enlai's ears.

Gong Enlai's face turned serious, and his eyes locked onto Yao Xiaosheng with absolute precision. "When I speak, please be quiet! If you can't do it, then don't blame me for teaching you the rules!"

Yao Xiaosheng anxiously stuck her tongue out at him, then closed her mouth, not daring to say anything else.

When Gong Enlai saw that everyone was silent, he opened the folder in his hand and said, "Let's start the roll call now!"

One by one, the students responded with a loud "here." Gong Enlai looked at each and every one of them. With his memory, he had memorized the students' names.

When Gong Enlai called out, "Liang Zixuan", Liang Zixuan immediately stood at attention, clasped her hands behind her back, and shouted loudly saying, "Here!"

Gong Enlai looked at Liang Zixuan's face as if he wanted to carve her face into his heart. He looked at her face deeply, and Liang Zixuan's gaze happened to meet his.

Gong Enlai's heart was stiffened for no reason.

Liang Zixuan didn't know if she was imagining it or what, but when Gong Enlai pointed at another person, even though he was also looking at the person, but the way he looked at them was different from the way he looked at her.

After standing there for half an hour, Gong Enlai finally let them rest for 10 minutes. Shi Jian, Xu Qigang and Cai Yuhan sat together with Liang Zixuan.

Cai Yuhan whispered, "Zixuan, why do I think Instructor Gong is different to you? When he called your name, he deliberately looked at you for a few more seconds. Then, when you stood there in a military stance, he also seemed to glance at you intentionally or unintentionally."

Shi Jian immediately nodded. "I feel the same way too. At first, I thought it was just my imagination. I didn't think Yuhan would feel the same way too."

Xu Qigang asked, "Zixuan, did you know Instructor Gong before?"

Liang Zixuan shook her head blankly. "I don't know him. This is the first time I met him."

With these words, she raised her head, and her gaze quickly found Gong Enlai's direction. Suddenly, their gazes met, and Liang Zixuan felt awkward for a moment before she immediately averted her gaze.

It really wasn't their imagination. Gong Enlai did look at Liang Zixuan from time to time.

For some reason, Liang Zixuan was a little nervous. She had been looked at by many people before, but Gong Enlai's gaze made her nervous to the core.

Throughout the morning, everyone was exhausted from Gong Enlai's training.

Just as they were about to disperse, Liang Zixuan saw a figure she recognized standing outside the stadium.

Her face immediately sank and her brow furrowed.

Gong Enlai straightened up and said, "Dismissed."

The figure immediately ran towards Liang Zixuan happily.

"Zixuan, I saw on Weibo that you came to study here. I came to check it out, but I didn't think you'd actually be here!" Hou Yingyi looked at Liang Zixuan with a surprised and fawning expression. He handed her the drink in his hand. "You must be thirsty. It's a hot day today. Here, drink this water."

Everyone looked at a handsome man running into their stadium. When they saw that it was Hou Yingyi, they fell silent and stayed behind to watch the nice show.

Especially Yao Xiaosheng, whose eyes filled with disdain. "Yo, I really didn't expect you to have so much charm after getting married. He even came to deliver the water himself."

Liang Zixuan tried her best to control her emotions and looked at Hou Yingyi expressionlessly. "Mr. Hou, I don't know you, so please stop bothering me. Thank you!"

"Zixuan." Hou Yingyi stepped forward and held her hand. "I just want to see you. We can't be lovers, but can't we be friends?"

Liang Zixuan angrily shook off Hou Yingyi's hand and moved away in disdain to prevent him from grabbing her hand again. "Impossible! My husband will be furious if he sees me talking to another man. So please leave, and don't look for me again!"

Yao Xiaosheng laughed. "He won't be angry. There's no other way. Liang Zixuan's charm is too great! The list of her ex-boyfriends is endless!"

"Shut up!" Hou Yingyi immediately shouted at her. "Don't talk such nonsense! Zixuan isn't like that."

"Tsk." Yao Xiaosheng smiled mockingly and looked at them without saying anything.

However, the surrounding students were looking at Liang Zixuan with an unclear look. An indescribable feeling that made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Enough, Hou Yingyi!" Liang Zixuan said angrily. "Don't pretend to be a good person here. I asked you to leave, so leave! Don't come looking for me in the future!"

"Zixuan..." Hou Yingyi panicked. He boldly walked over to Liang Zixuan's side and reached out his hand to hold hers. "No, I can't do that!"

When Liang Zixuan was so irritated and wanted to push Hou Yingyi away again, a large and strong hand suddenly grabbed his wrist.. Hou Yingyi was in so much pain that tears flowed from his eyes and he cried loudly. "Pain! Pain!"
