Chapter 4090: Can You Beat Me?
Editor: Henyee Translations
“That’s all you’ve got? What’s there to be afraid of? It’s not like you haven’t lived outside before. What are you afraid of?” He Jing glared at her and spoke as if she expected better from her.
Although Xu Wen was listening, she never stopped grabbing Ye Jian’s hand. She said, “I don’t want to be afraid either, but I can’t control it. It’s in the middle of nowhere. They’re even making us sleep in the mountains. We don’t even have tents. We have to pass through a piece of land in the middle of the night…”
As she spoke, Xu Wen shivered and asked Ye Jian weakly, “Ye Jian, do you think we’ll encounter ghosts when we pass through?”
“Do you think it’s so easy for you to see ghosts?” He Jing rolled her eyes and said to Ye Jian, “Ignore her. The more you talk to her, the more timid she becomes. This time, the results will be calculated. The fourth-year seniors have already reminded you that the outdoor assessment is a test of courage. The more you’re afraid of something, the more reason the assessment team will make things hard for you. Don’t scare yourself.”
Xu Wen was so nervous that she wanted to go to the bathroom. “What should I do? I want to go to the bathroom now…”
...“Hold it in!”
“I can’t hold it in. Who asked you to say that? The more you speak, the more nervous I get. I’ll want to go to the bathroom when I’m nervous and afraid.”
He Jing was almost confused by Xu Wen. Afraid that she would disturb the other students on the bus, she tried her best to lower her voice and grit her teeth. “Do you want to get good results?”
“Yes, of course!” Xu Wen replied firmly without any hesitation.
He Jing felt that there was a chance. She clenched her fists and made a cheering gesture. “What’s there to be afraid of? As long as you can good results, you don’t have to be afraid of anything.”
“I want to be fearless too, but I’m afraid. What can I do?”
He Jing wanted to pounce on Xu Wen and strangle her. Then, she closed her eyes and retracted her hands. “I won’t persuade you anymore. Ye Jian, I’ll leave her to you.”
Ye Jian, who was resting with her eyes closed, smiled and replied, “I’m not persuading her. If she has the ability, she can jump off the bus and return to school now.”
…
In that case, Xu Wen really didn’t have the ability!
With a ‘sad’ expression, Xu Wen held Ye Jian’s hand and squeezed her eyes open, trying to squeeze out a few tears to achieve a better effect. “Jian, I’ll leave my safety to you. Please protect me well. Thank you.”
Before she could cry, He Jing pinched her face. “Xu Wen, protect your dignity!”
“He Jing, if my face bruises because of you, I won’t let you off!”
“Ha, can you beat me?”
The two of them spoke one after another. In the end, Xu Wen was the first to fall asleep. It was already past two in the morning. According to their military school’s schedule, she would have fallen asleep long ago.
As soon as she fell asleep, He Jing stretched her sore waist and said to Ye Jian, who hadn’t fallen asleep either. “She’s finally asleep. What do you think we should do after she graduates?”
He Jing sighed worriedly. “Sometimes, she’s as timid as a mouse. Sometimes, she fantasizes about the sky. Usually, she’ll scare herself before anything happens. We still have a year as classmates. Where will she go then?”
Ye Jian couldn’t help but smile and shake her head. “You always say that I take care of Wen. Actually, you take care of her more than me. At least, I’m never worried about whether she’ll take good care of herself after separating from us.”
