Chapter 4904: Remember

Qiu Tong’s words made Gao Xiao blame herself even more. How could she use force on her comrade because of a liar?
How could she?
Gao Xiao, who was crying until she choked, held Qiu Tong’s wrist tightly. Her voice was completely hoarse as she cried uncontrollably. "No, no. It’s my fault.
"I should’ve listened to your explanation. It’s not your fault. It’s all that bastard’s fault. He lied to me and you. We’re both victims.
"I was too narrow-minded. I couldn’t vent my anger on that bastard, so I could only vent all my anger on you.
"I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I hope you can forgive me."
The two of them, who were once incompatible with each other, were punished, and their comrades were implicated by them. Finally, one of them could muster the courage to explain while the other could listen to the explanation calmly and understand that it wasn’t the other party’s fault.
Although Ye Jian was relieved that the biggest problem was solved, her anger didn’t disappear.
She asked Qiu Tong to help Gao Xiao stand at the side to watch as their comrades held their knives and stabbed each other. When she saw that the two of them were crying and swaying, Ye Jian ordered all the female soldiers to stop.
Twenty minutes had passed. The camouflage cotton clothes on the female soldiers were cut by the sharp daggers, revealing the thermal layer. The moment they heard the command, all their strength disappeared. They didn’t even have the strength to put the daggers back into their sheaths.
Qiu Tong supported Gao Xiao. The two of them staggered and cried as they walked toward their comrades who were implicated. Ye Jian, who was watching from the side, heard the two of them apologizing to their comrades and hugging them along the way.
"It doesn’t matter, but the two of you can’t make the same mistake again. Especially Gao Xiao. Every time you provoked Qiu Tong, she would give in to you. You were simply pushing your luck. You deserve a heavy punishment."
"Stop crying. You’re so ugly. Do you want to make me laugh with how ugly you look? It’s fine. It’s just a few cuts on our clothes. It’s fine. We’re not hurt."
"Do you regret it now? You even stabbed Qiu Tong with a dagger. I thought the instructor’s punishment was too light for you."
"The grudges between the two of you will end today. Remember not to play with your lives like today. I’m the oldest among all of you. Alas, I’m old. My heart couldn’t help but tremble."
Gao Xiao’s apology was exchanged for the forgiveness of his comrades. Not only were they not angry, but they also comforted Gao Xiao, who was crying until she was out of breath.
"Oh my god, look at how badly you’re crying. Those who don’t know might think that we’re ganging up to bully you. Stop crying. You look like a clown. Your face is all black and yellow. I want to laugh when I see you like this."
A female soldier couldn’t help but laugh when she saw Gao Xiao crying until she almost fainted.
Ye Jian gave all the female soldiers five minutes to rest. When the five minutes were up, her cold voice was heard again. It was a simple and effective command. "Gather."
The squad leader, Yang Zhen, stood up immediately and shouted, "Everyone, gather! Hurry!"
After a series of footsteps, the 19 female soldiers gathered. Yang Zhen clenched her fists and ran to Ye Jian’s side. Then, she stood at attention and saluted. "Reporting, Instructor. There should be 20 people in the female soldier class. All 20 are accounted for. Please give your instructions."
"Return to the team."
"Yes!" Yang Zhen jogged back to the line.
At this moment, almost an hour had passed since Gao Xiao stabbed her knife at Qiu Tong. Gao Xiao, who was reprimanded by Ye Jian, stood in the line and kept praying that it would end quickly. She didn’t want to see her comrades implicated because of her anymore.
