Qin Ran packed two sets of three dishes and one soup from the canteen and sat in the dormitory with Su Nan, eating with relish.

  On the second day of military training, they stood in a military posture for two hours. The sun in September was bright, and many male students began to sway after persisting for an hour. Even though Qin Ran deliberately faked it, her figure was still quite straight. When the instructor walked past her, he couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.

  From the first time she met the instructor, Qin Ran felt that his gaze was especially sharp, as if he was hiding a secret. However, some of the instructor’s actions were usual, so Qin Ran didn’t think too much about it.

  When they finished the two hours of military posture, the instructor brought the entire square team to run laps. One lap, two laps. When they reached the fifth lap, almost all the students could not lift their feet. Qin Ran also sighed.

  The instructor stopped in his tracks, but Qin Ran never expected him to walk straight towards her.

  “What’s your name?”


  “Qin Ran.” Why did he ask her name for no reason?

  “Run the remaining five laps!”


  Qin Ran was confused. Why did he let her run alone? It wasn’t that she couldn’t run, but there had to be a reason.

  “Why?” Qin Ran asked weakly.

  “You can do it.” He directly encouraged her without giving a reason.

  “I really can’t run anymore.” Qin Ran continued to say weakly. Wouldn’t everyone be discussing it when they found out that she had stood in a military posture for two hours and completed ten rounds without panting?

  “Instructor, don’t make things difficult for Qin Ran. Her physique has been very poor since she was young.” When had her physique been poor? Su Nan would really say anything to help her.

  All the students were present, so the instructor could not deliberately insist on his own views and could only give up.

  During the military training in the next two weeks, the instructor also made things difficult for Qin Ran from time to time. However, Qin Ran either showed weakness or pretended to be uncomfortable and escaped. At the same time, the doubts in her heart became deeper and deeper. Instead of saying that this instructor was making things difficult for her, it was more like he was testing her, as if he wanted to know what Qin Ran’s limit was.

  The military training was over at five o’clock on the last day. In addition, there was no evening self-study, so she had a lot of free time.

  “Qingqing, there are many delicious food and branded shops on the business street in the university town. Let’s go shopping together,” Su Nan said to Qin Ran as soon as she heard the news.

  “Don’t you complain every day that training is tiring? You still have the energy to shop?” Qin Ran teased Su Nan.

  Su Nan smiled and continued to pester Qin Ran, “It’s precisely because I’m tired that I have to relax. Shall we go together?”


  Qin Ran shrugged. What could she do with such a playful best friend?

  After the two of them finished eating and drinking, it was already past eight o’clock when Mo Chi called.

  “Isn’t there no evening self-study today?” Mo Chi asked directly.

  “Yes, Nannan and I are playing outside!” Mo Chi had probably called when he returned home from work.

  “Be careful and come home early.” Mo Chi cared about Qin Ran as if he was instructing a child.

  When Su Nan heard that there was someone waiting anxiously for Qin Ran, she said with a mischievous smile, “Alright, alright. Go back quickly. That’s all for today. I’m going back to the dormitory to rest.”


  After Qin Ran saw that Su Nan had taken a taxi back, she took a detour and walked along the dark path. That night, she could still feel someone staring at her from behind even though there was a lot of traffic on the business street.

  Qin Ran was naturally generous and took the initiative to create an opportunity for the people following her to attack.

  As expected, as soon as she turned onto the path, the footsteps behind her sped up a lot. Qin Ran slowed down and deliberately led them out. It was not easy to attack snakes who were in the dark, so it was easier to clean them up in the open.

  Suddenly, the person behind her walked quickly to her side. Her temple felt cold.

  It was actually a gun.

  Qin Ran was shocked. It seemed that the enemies this time had a powerful backer. Those who could hold guns were either officials or top-notch gangs.

  “Qin Ran, please come with us,” the other party said.

  He had a gun in his hand and even pressed it against her vital points, but he didn’t kill her. It seemed like the person behind this didn’t just want her life. That was even worse. Her reputation as an agent of the National Security Bureau would be ruined if she was captured alive by the enemy.

  “Where are you taking me?” Qin Ran looked flustered, but she was actually thinking about how to escape.
