Later on, the facts proved that Ye Yao was the brave rescuer who saved Huo Buyu’s life. At that time, the Huo family had retrieved the dashcam video footage, and apologized to Ye Yao after confirming that she was, indeed, innocent. However, Ye Yao was very angry. Anyone would be angry if they were wronged for doing a good deed. She left without saying a word. Subsequently, she was sent overseas. When her life was hanging on a thread, it was Huo Buyu who appeared and rescued her. Then, for some strange reason, the two of them ended up being together. Ye Yao felt that everything that had happened was too mysterious. It seemed that initially, Huo Buyu felt that her ability to jinx things was too strong, so he kept a tight watch over her and wouldn’t let her do anything rash. Gradually he started to treat her as his girlfriend and they even slept together.
Ye Yao suddenly felt a little regretful! Back then, she had been too charmed by Huo Buyu’s good looks and lost control of her own emotions. She had been deceived by Huo Buyu so easily! The fact was, Huo Buyu was a very old-fashioned man! Other than his good looks, there was nothing else good about him! If anyone asked, she would say she regretted it! She regretted it so much that her intestines were turning green!
Huo Buyu raised his eyebrows when he saw Ye Yao’s expression. “What’s on your mind now?”
Ye Yao put her palms together. “It’s too annoying for Qin Jiao to pester you like this. I hope someone will appear and teach her a lesson so that she never dares to bother you again.” Ye Yao prayed silently for this to come true. Whether she could lead a peaceful life in the future would now depend on this.
Huo Buyu snorted. “Might as well help your ex-boyfriend make a wish at the same time. I’m also very annoyed that he keeps pestering you.”
When Ye Yao thought of Zhou Chen, she could not stop herself from laughing. “He probably won’t be able to pester me for a while. I heard that he’s laid up in the hospital, almost going crazy. This person must have done too many bad things. Otherwise, why would he have such a big reaction?” When she thought of Zhou Chen’s fate, she couldn’t help but gloat. He really deserved it!
Huo Buyu did not comment. Gao Qiao, who always enjoyed a good show, had already sent him a video that showed Zhou Chen panicking. It was indeed scary, especially if one watched it at night.
Huo Buyu stroked Ye Yao’s head. “Behave yourself. Your military training starts tomorrow.”
Ye Yao nodded solemnly.
Huo Buyu was compelled to remind her again, “There are many people around on campus. Don’t spout nonsense, understand?”
Ye Yao nodded obediently again.
Huo Buyu sighed. He swore that if Ye Yao was taking his words seriously, he’d eat sh*t hanging upside down!
The next morning, Ye Yao changed into the camouflage uniform distributed by the university and went to school under Huo Buyu’s escort. All the first-year students enrolled in the university were here. There were 50 of them in a team. At first, they were made to run. The four teams ran together. The instructor said that the top four runners could rest under the shade of the trees and would not have to file in for the military formation. Of course, the most important thing was to assess the physical fitness of the students.
Ye Yao had been very pampered by Huo Buyu. After running for a while, she couldn’t take it and found herself muttering, “Those who are running in front of me should all lie down before reaching the finishing line, until I’ve run past it.”
Then… the next scene was nothing short of spectacular! More than 200 students were running together. The girls didn’t have good stamina to begin with. Even with Ye Yao running very hard, she found herself being taken over by one person after another. Looking up, she saw a black mass of people. The boys basically rushed to the front while the girls lagged behind, panting.
The instructor stood at the finish line, waiting to record the first four finishers. A few students at the front ran very fast. The instructor was about to record the results when suddenly, the person closest to the finish line slipped and he fell to the ground. He wanted to get up, but the person behind looked as though he did not notice him. With a thud, he fell onto his legs. Then, the third, fourth, and fifth persons… Like dominoes, they fell one by one.
The people who witnessed this started raising their phones to take images of the strange scene.
At least a hundred people fell between Ye Yao and the finish line. Ye Yao did not stop and ran forward with all her might. Behind her were mostly girls. When Ye Yao finally became the first to cross the finish line, the people behind stopped tripping. Everyone arrived at the finish line safely, and those who fell also arrived at the finish line eventually.
The instructor looked at the cohort of 200 and gave the boys a thumbs up. “You have a sense of propriety. You know how to give way to girls. Not bad!”
It had to be said that this was a beautiful misunderstanding. The instructors didn’t think that it was an accident that more than a hundred people fell at the same time. They only thought that the boys were being gentlemanly and were deliberately giving the girls the opportunity to rest..
