15 Chen Ran's Decision, It Is Time to Take Action

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhang Tianyang really could not understand why the company commander would target him when he had never mentioned Chen Ran's name in the entire incident. 

"Company Commander, that's not good. Just now, only Xiao Yunjie and Yan Poyue took the lead to cause trouble. It has nothing to do with Chen Ran. His performance was not bad."

Chen Mintao, who was standing at the side, was also a little puzzled. "Sir, I think Chen Ran is a good lad. There's no need to punish him, right?"

"Punishment? What punishment? In your eyes, am I such an indiscriminate bad person?" Li Xiang scolded with a dark expression.

"Then what do you mean, sir? If it's not to punish Chen Ran, why don't you let him eat?" Chen Mintao smiled.

"Come, take a look for yourself. What's the situation with this guy who wants to prove his strength to his aunt?" Li Xiang handed the binoculars in his hand to Chen Mintao. 

Puzzled, Chen Mintao took the binoculars.

He looked at the running team with his binoculars and found Chen Ran among them.

At this moment, Chen Ran was running at an average speed in the middle of the team.

"Isn't he just running like the others? There doesn't seem to be anything special about him. He didn't run too slowly and fall behind the team, nor did he rush to the front to show off." 

Li Xiang said coldly, "Take a closer look. Look at his face." 

When Chen Mintao heard this, he picked up the binoculars again and took a closer look. He was shocked to find that there was no sweat on Chen Ran's face as he ran. His face was still fair and clean, and his breathing was very natural. He could even look around leisurely to observe others' situations. He looked like he was taking a walk and was in a very relaxed state. 

Then he looked at the others beside him. All of them were panting from running. Their faces were flushed, their expressions twisted, and they were sweating profusely. 

"Why does this guy look like he's taking a walk? He's too relaxed. There's no pressure at all. It's indeed abnormal." 

"It can't be, right? They've already run so many laps, and it's still like he's taking a stroll?" Zhang Tianyang said.

Chen Mintao handed him the binoculars and said, "Take a look for yourself."

Zhang Tianyang took the binoculars and took a look. He said, "It's true. His stamina feels even stronger than those two troublemakers. He must have even greater potential."

Chen Mintao nodded and said, "That's right. He has great potential." 

Li Xiang said, "This kid is not ordinary. I asked him to continue running because I wanted to see his limits. Don't think that this kid looks fair and innocent. He looks harmless, but he has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

"He's clearly very strong, but he doesn't show it. He deliberately keeps a low profile and doesn't want to stick out. What does this mean? It means that he has seen through our methods and doesn't want to attract our attention. However, he's still a little inexperienced. That little trick can't fool me.

"You don't want to stand out, right? I just have to force him to stand out."

When Chen Mintao heard this, he finally understood. He smiled and said, "Sir, your eyes are really accurate. The older the ginger, the spicier it is. I was almost fooled by this kid's appearance."

"Are you praising me or scolding me? Am I older than you or younger?"

"Hahaha, no, no. Speaking of which, this batch of recruits doesn't look easy to lead."

"What's wrong with that? In front of me, even if they're dragons, they have to lie down for me. If they're dishonest, I have plenty of ways to deal with them!"

"That's true. There's no soldier in the company that you, Old Li, can't handle," Chen Mintao said with a smile.

Then, he turned around and said to Zhang Tianyang, "Go and carry out the company commander's orders."

"Yes!" Zhang Tianyang saluted and replied. He quickly turned around and left, walking quickly towards the training ground.

After arriving at the training ground, Zhang Tianyang carefully observed Chen Ran again. 

"This kid has been running for so long. He doesn't look tired at all. 

"Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie both seem to be in good physical condition. They are sweating profusely from running, but Chen Ran still looks fresh. How did he do it?

"Is it really as the company commander and the others said? Chen Ran looks simple, but is he actually a wily old fox?

"Interesting."

Time passed by slowly. Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie were the first to complete ten laps. After reaching the finish line, they slowly stopped to rest.

With the two of them leading the way, the others finally arrived at the finish line one after another. Their legs went limp and they collapsed to the ground. 

Unlike them, after Chen Ran reached the finish line unhurriedly, he calmly stretched. His state was so relaxed that it looked like he had just started running!

"Oh my god, I'm finally done running. My legs are going to be crippled." 

"I didn't expect that I could really run so far!"

Everyone was panting. 

At this moment, Zhang Tianyang walked over and shouted, "You've only run for a short while and you're already lying on the ground like a piece of trash? Get up!"

Everyone stood up with difficulty and lined up.

"Yan Poyue, Xiao Yunjie, and Chen Ran, stay behind and continue running. The rest of you can go and eat!"

The recruits heaved a sigh of relief. They supported each other and stumbled towards the dining hall, leaving Yan Poyue, Xiao Yunjie, and Chen Ran behind.

When Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie heard that they could not eat, they did not find it strange.

"Poyue, it seems that we have indeed offended the squad leader today. The squad leader will not let us off easily. I wonder how long we have to run."

"It's just running. It's not a difficult task. Let's run. It won't be a problem until it's dark." Yan Poyue said indifferently and immediately ran forward.

Xiao Yunjie also started running. As he ran, he asked, "Hey, poyue, you said that it's fine if the squad leader punished us, but why is the model punished too? He didn't do anything, right?" 

"I don't know. Why should I care so much?" Yan Poyue ignored Xiao Yunjie and quickened his pace.

At this moment, only Chen Feng was left standing on the spot. He was indeed a little depressed.

"It's normal that Yan Poyue and Xiao Yunjie can't go to dinner. It's said that the bird that sticks out gets shot. The two of them are definitely going to be taught a lesson today. Why can't I go to dinner too?

"I've been low-key enough. Why am I being punished? What went wrong?

"Is it because of that sentence that I have to prove my strength to Aunt?

"Forget it, let's not think about it anymore. It's useless to think so much. Let's just run obediently."

Chen Ran also started to run forward.

There were many people just now, so he did not want to show off too much, so he deliberately controlled his speed. Now was different. There were not many people in the training ground, so there was no need to deliberately keep a low profile. Now was the best time to show that the strong were respected.

According to the original plot, these two guys who undermined him ran until it was dark without eating. This was completely self-torture.

Chen Ran, who had a strong physique, would definitely not do such a stupid thing.

"I have to speed up. It's time to stand out!"

Chen Ran immediately rushed forward like an arrow.
