Chapter 55: The Unyielding Battalion Commander

  Before dawn, Lu got up early to go for a run. After taking a shower and just entering the kitchen, he saw Mei Qian with a smile on her face. After being slightly stunned, Lu naturally went over to pick up the knife and chop potatoes while asking Mei Qian how she knew he was there.

  Mei pointed to the cucumber that had already been peeled, "Because I was idle and had nothing to do here, Agatha arranged for me to come to the kitchen to help out. Before coming, I didn't know that the so-called 'head chef' was you."

  "Ha! How's that? Pretty thrilled, huh? Getting to work with your big brother?"

  Mei smiled slightly, "Oh no, if I knew you were the head chef, I absolutely wouldn't have come."

  The second battle after the reunion ended with Mei Qian's victory.

  Breakfast was simple anyway, and with Mei Qian's help, the time spent was also greatly reduced. At the dinner table, I didn't see Livial's usual scolding of a certain someone, and after quickly finishing eating, I went back on my previous principle of only helping once and packed another bento for Livial, ignoring Mei Qian's evil gaze as I left the dining hall.

  That training enthusiast was indeed on the training grounds. After running to Llewellyn's side and handing him a bento, Ritsu spoke up. "What should I do today?"

  Naturally, he opened the bento in his hand and said to Rivaille with a raised eyebrow, "I've made you a training schedule. From now on, everything you should do every day is listed on it, so you don't have to come ask me every day."

  Lü Weiwei was slightly stunned, didn't say anything, nodded and took the paper handed over by Liewei. Liewei didn't pay attention to him anymore, but turned around to continue instructing the soldiers. Although this wasn't out of the ordinary, Lü just felt that something was a bit off.

  Looking at the dense training schedule, Lü felt that he didn't have the time or energy to worry about whether Li Weier was being awkward or not. All of this would be enough to crush him.

  But even if these contents are obviously difficult for him, it can't be that just because of this the task can't be completed. Let's take them one by one, fortunately these contents indeed all have benefits for enhancing various strengths.

  Actually, Lewell said he wanted to find some trouble for Lut to do, but this list was something he had practiced before. If he took it seriously, even if he didn't see much improvement in the short term, it would still be beneficial for him in the future.

  For this apprentice who always inexplicably gave him a headache, Llewellyn thought that temporarily letting him train on his own according to the manual would make his military life much more peaceful.

  While Lv Zheng was fighting on the front line, Mei Qian suddenly appeared at the training ground with a handful of melon seeds and sat down to watch. Every time Lv made a mistake, she would laugh with a face full of wrinkles, looking like a bright tea chrysanthemum flower.

  At this point, Lü was already able to go from the initial stomach ache to now being calm and composed. He thought that Mei Qian's existence was probably meant to constantly train his originally not-so-strong but now rock-solid heart. He even felt that now, even if Li Wei wore a sexy bikini and batted her eyelashes at him, he wouldn't be moved ——— okay, this was still an exaggeration. It was impossible for him to remain completely unmoved, because it was just too shocking, even if he were told now that Mei Qian was actually a man, he wouldn't find it more astonishing and heart-pounding than this.

  After a day, Lv struggled to finish all the training items on the list, but it was clear that dinner would be late. Fortunately, Mei Qian finally came in handy at this time. When Lv was taking a bath, Mei Qian had already completed most of the preparatory work, and Lv only needed to stir-fry the dishes for a while before they were ready.

  Thanks to Tomé's luck, dinner time didn't get delayed too long.

  Slumped down at the dinner table, listlessly holding a spoon, head nodding slightly, almost burying it in the plate.

  It's probably because he had been ridiculed enough for the whole day, so Mei Qian didn't make any personal attacks on this matter, which made Lv feel relieved. However, it turned out that Mei Qian really wasn't favored by heaven, and after calming down, Li Weier, who hadn't been seen all day, sat down beside Lv.

  He tried his best to maintain the image that was already almost ruined, but a day of high-intensity training was really too exhausting, and he didn't have much energy left to maintain his table manners.

  Contrary to expectations, Lyle didn't comment on his appearance. His tone was calm, yet it suddenly made Ruri's eyes widen with a spark of spirit that had long been extinguished.

  "He said, 'Not bad.'"

  Did he just say something? Ritsu thought she was hallucinating, staring at the nonchalant and expressionless Sergeant who continued eating, Ritsu asked, "Just now, were you praising me? That was praise, right?"

  Leweil didn't react and continued eating.

  Lu Bu's eyes did not leave, and he asked again, "Bing Chang, can you say it again? I want to confirm that I'm not tired and hallucinating."

  Lewell's spoon-wielding hand paused, and he turned his head to glance at a certain someone who had gotten a good deal and was now acting smug. He forced out a stiff smile and said, "As I said earlier, your training tomorrow will be much tougher than today's. Good luck."

  Law: "......"

  Sitting on the other side, supporting her ears and listening to the conversation between the two people clearly, Mei didn't give face at all and splashed a mouthful of soup, ignoring the stone-like expression of the person opposite her. She said sincerely to Lv, "Dear, your current expression is really like when you're starving but food gets stuck in your throat, oh, this feeling of being pressed into a water tank...... Ah, wow."

  Lu Yi thought to himself as he rolled up his sleeves, there are indeed people in this world who deserve a beating.

  Liu Wei raised his bowl and took a sip of the soup, "Hmm, tonight's moon is really nice."

  The next day, after finishing the morning training, Ritsu saw Mei Qian in the kitchen with an eerie excitement. Ritsu didn't want to ask what was going on but couldn't avoid being directly told that Mei Qian had found an organization here. In fact, Ritsu really suspected whether those creatures called "rot" were distributed everywhere in every world. This possibility was too high because no matter where Ritsu went, he could always meet this kind of person, and Mei Qian could live a carefree life wherever she went as long as she held the banner with the word "rot".

  In response, Lü stated that he refused to comment on this matter.

  Ritsu hastily finished eating and continued training, while Mei Shian continued to wander around somewhere.

  The days passed quietly and strangely for a month, and the content of the single sheet given by Rivaille to Ruti was basically completed and met the requirements, so Ruti finally didn't feel tired all day long.

  Ritsu was able to take a break for a few days, but he didn't know what to do with himself. Life in the military wasn't always serious, but most of the time people were training or practicing, and there weren't many activities to relax with. So Ritsu thought it would be fun to bother Llewellyn, but as for Mei Shallow, if he really went to find her, he would definitely be asked to do some strange things, which Ritsu was absolutely not interested in. As the person who knew Ritsu best, Llewellyn became the perfect target for teasing.

  So in the following days, Lut continued to appear in places where Lewell was, occasionally making some harmless small movements. At first, Lewell didn't react much, until on the fourth day when Lut smiled and greeted him in his bedroom, Lewell paused for a few seconds before directly and neatly throwing Lut out.

  Before closing the door, Liewell threw out a sentence. "Starting tomorrow, I'll arrange for you to be an assistant beside Hanji."

  Stroking his chin, thinking about what to do when he gets to Hanji's place. The assistant probably just does tasks like serving water and handing over documents.

  Can't help but say, you really think too simply, would Lieutenant Rivaille only let you do that kind of work, dear Lutz?

  The author has something to say: The first update ~ the second update will probably be finished in the evening, because there are also classes in the afternoon o(∩_∩)o~
