Chapter 178: I Do! (Part one)

Xu Cheng still didnt want to do the reality show. He said, Big Bro, you know I came back this time for the competition, why are you telling me to do some TV show? Those celebrities are all spoiled, I dont want to have to take care of them.

The head instructors face was bitter. Its still a month until the competition, and although I cant make you the tactical core of the team, I can still guarantee you a spot. But now, you saw as well, Hu Bing clearly cant get along with you. In this kind of situation, there are usually two options: you either beat him into submitting or vice versa. Ultimately someone has to compromise. However, this guys background isnt simple. Since the beginning, we constructed a game plan centering around him. To be frank, its to give him a platform that functions like a springboard, and thats the intention of those behind him. They dont need us to do anything else, as long as he behaves in the military camp, it wont be too much trouble for us too. Thats why I hesitated a bit when I heard that you were coming back.

Xu Cheng came to the sudden realization.

So, the participants list was already drafted a long time ago?

The head instructor nodded and sighed, I wont keep this behind you since we are pretty tight, and I know you really want another chance to join that division, but the most I can do is to get you a spot, and Hu Bing has to be the captain. This guy has a strong background and he wants to prove himself, so his family already came to greet us to make a game plan that centers around him for this years competition. Even if you came back, he will still be the captain.

Xu Cheng nodded. I understand, thats fine, I can accept this. Im fine if they just let me train with them.

But you saw as well, this brat really doesnt like you and he would rather train with just 14 people instead of including you. A country cant have two kings, so your situation is a bit awkward. Also I forcefully put you onto the list, and Hu Bing wants to marginalize you. I think you have to be prepared.

Xu Cheng bitterly smiled. Do you have a cig?

The head instructor took out a pack from his drawer and tossed it at him. Xu Cheng took one out and lit it. After awhile, he took a breath and said, Big Bro, do you know that this time, to participate in this competition, I already declined invitations from 2 military regions?

The head instructor paused for a moment. He did indeed know that the 8th MR came over and tried to headhunt Xu Cheng, but there was one more?

The head instructor from the 8th MR did indeed come before, whos the other one?

The 13th MR, replied Xu Cheng.

The head instructors eyes stared wide open. Why didnt you accept? The 13th MR was in the top 3 last year! You couldve had the best chance at winning the competition this year, are you stupid?!

Xu Cheng: I would be stupid if I went. I grew up in the 5th MR, and if I won for another MR when Im at my prime, wouldnt that be ironic?

The head instructor didnt know what to say. He bitterly laughed. Whats more ironic is that the 5th MR cant even give you a promise right now, right? Brother, I wish I could do more, but you know our country places heavy emphasis on networks and backgrounds. Sigh, if Hu Bing was not here, the 5th MR would for sure construct a game plan centered around you for your return, thats undoubted, but

I dont care about those resources, even during competitions, I can listen to Hu Bings commands. Just let me join them and train together, said Xu Cheng.

The head instructor shook his head and said helplessly, We only have the right to suggest and train them, as for what the team does, its all up to Hu Bing. I already got scolded by the commander for squeezing you onto the list, and the situation will be worse for you if you dont get along with Hu Bing during training.

Xu Cheng lowered his head. I know now, thanks Big Bro.

Head Instructor: Dont be discouraged, you can still train by yourself and everyone else is here to help. Also, this time being the instructor for the reality TV Show was also me wanting to give you more opportunities to showcase your skills. It wont be filming every day so it wont affect your training too much. If the show does well, it will help a lot with recruiting next year, and thats a way of contributing to the military region too. Oh, this is the celebrity list thats coming, take a look. Their whole crew will be coming to station here in two days, make sure you give me a reply before tomorrow.

Xu Cheng absent-mindedly took the list and walked out of the head instructors office. He was planning to do great things after coming back, and he didnt expect this kind of event right after his return.

Xu Cheng clenched his fist, looked at the starry sky, and said with determination, Dont want me to train with them? Whatever, solo works too, then I will show you all the absolute power of a soloing ace!

Looking at the list, Xu Cheng suddenly paused for a moment.

He saw that the first special guest on this list was actually Lin Chuxue!

Was this woman crazy? Coming to the military region to suffer? She had been spoiled since birth, when had she gone through hardships of this level?

Xu Cheng immediately went back to his dorm, took out his phone, and called Lin Chuxue.

On the other end, Lin Chuxue was in her condo creating music on the piano. Hearing the phone ring, she turned to look at the caller ID. Seeing the call coming from the contact nicknamed Little Boy, she smiled, picked up the phone, and gently answered, Hello?

Why are you participating in the reality show? Not to mention its a hard one called True Men.

Lin Chuxue chuckled. Are you surprised? I seemed to have grown up under extreme care, like a flower in a greenhouse. Ive never touched any of the events that were planned for this show, maybe I wont be able to stand it.

Xu Cheng: Then why are you still joining?

Lin Chuxue: Because Ive never tried any of it, and I want to give it a shot. If you really want to ask why, then I can answer you. Do you want to hear it?

Xu Cheng, let me try and learn more about you. After hesitating for a moment, she softly said on the phone, I want to go to the military and see how you lived these years, and I also want to see what kind of pain you had to endure to change into a new person. I feel that if I dont try to learn this part of you, I will regret later on missing out on something.

Xu Cheng became silent on the phone.

On the other end, Lin Chuxue said, If you always treat me like a goddess thats out of your reach, Im willing to cut off my wings or take off my crown and make myself ordinary. The ordinary me, will you still like it?

Xu Chengs eyes became slightly red, and he simply replied, I do!
