In the first kilometer, everyone was able to maintain their formation, but later on, the team gradually dispersed. Qi Lei, who had the best physical fitness, ran in the front, and several female comrades fell behind.
"Adjust your breathing, hurry up." Li Wei urged as he stood by the road.
This bunch of noobs are really noobs.
Liu Yayi looked back at Su Ran, whose steps were heavy, and said worriedly, "Sister Su Ran seems unable to run."
This is less than two kilometers.
Ye Dansha disagreed: "You might as well worry about yourself instead of her."
Originally, she was most afraid of running, and usually she would just do yoga for fitness, but today she ran particularly vigorously. She was happy when she thought of Su Ran being punished. It was really gratifying. The big devil was clear about rewards and punishments, unlike that Li Heizi who always protected Su Ran.
"But... if Sister Su Ran hadn't woken everyone up, everyone would have been punished."
"They say you are young and easy to fool, and you can be bought off with a little favor. The entertainment industry is very complicated, and those who can thrive in this circle are not as simple as you think. Don't say I didn't warn you. You have seen how everyone treats Su Ran. If you don't want to be isolated and want to continue to develop in this circle, stay away from Su Ran." Ye Dansha acted like a senior to educate the younger newcomers.
Liu Yayi curled her lips and looked back at Su Ran, but ultimately she couldn't muster up the courage to help.
Su Ran looked at the person in front of her and tried hard to catch up, but she was powerless. Her stomach hurt more and more, and she kept sweating. A few years ago, she was filming a scene in the night rain in the middle of winter, and it happened to be her menstrual period. The actor who played opposite her always couldn't get into the state, and the scene was stuck dozens of times, causing her to be drenched in the cold rain for most of the night. From then on, she suffered from dysmenorrhea, and she was in excruciating pain every time she had her menstrual period.
"Comrade Su Ran, can you still hold on?" Li Wei was a little worried when he saw that Su Ran was in a bad condition.
Su Ran gritted her teeth and said, "Yes."
"If you really can't hold on, don't force it."
"Um!"
Su Ran felt warm at the monitor's concern. He had even spoken up for her before. He was really a good monitor.
"Keep your breathing even, try to breathe through your nose, and move your hands. You can think of something to divert your attention, which can relieve physical discomfort." Li Wei instructed her while running.
Han Dong stood at the edge of the playground, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and blew out a string of smoke rings. The smoke rings slowly spread out and merged into the faint morning light. Looking into the distance, the outlines of the surrounding mountains gradually became clear, majestic and handsome.
The recruits came back one after another, sitting on the grass and gasping for breath, like fish stranded on the shore.
The two male students who were running extra hours had no time to catch their breath. They gritted their teeth and rushed onto the track to continue the unfinished five kilometers.
Han Dong looked towards the gate of the military camp. Su Ran had not returned yet, but he was not worried because Li Wei had not returned either.
After more than ten minutes, two figures appeared in Han Dong's sight. They moved very slowly, like turtles, but were still moving forward.
"Su Ran, can you still hold on?" When they reached the playground, Li Wei asked again in a responsible manner.
Su Ran no longer had the strength to answer him. Her violent breathing made her trachea, throat, and lungs feel as if they were being cut by a knife. She just took heavy steps and ran towards the track firmly.
Li Wei has seen many determined soldiers who can always break through the challenges of their physical limits time and time again, but he has always believed that this is as it should be. Soldiers must constantly challenge themselves and break through their limits. However, today, when he asked Su Ran again and again whether she could still hold on, she did not hesitate at all, just two words... hold on.
Based on this point alone, Li Wei recognized this female comrade.
Yang Fan was recording the students' scores. When he saw Li Wei coming over, he asked in a low voice, "Did she run back by herself?"
Li Wei glanced at him and said, "What else?"
Did he carry it back on his back
"Tsk tsk, she looks so frail, but I didn't expect she is so tenacious." Yang Fan watched Su Ran staggering on the track with interest.
It's rare to see a woman so resilient.
You have to know that their five-kilometer cross-country race is on a mountain trail. Ye Dansha and Liu Yayi's three-kilometer run only goes to the foot of the mountain, while the five-kilometer run requires going up a mountain. Going up a mountain is completely different from running on flat ground, and the physical energy consumption is doubled.
"Do you think the captain will be gentle with women?" Yang Fan glanced at the captain and asked meaningfully.
Li Wei shook his head. It was hard to say. The captain's mind was unfathomable. Anyway, the captain never showed mercy to male comrades. Every year, the elites sent by various troops were full of vigor and vitality when they came, but they were all beaten to tears by the captain. The more stubborn you are, the more powerful the captain will be. The captain's way of valuing a person is to make you more and more tormented. Either you collapse and quit, or you hold on until you get his recognition.
However, Comrade Su Ran seemed to have some health problems, and Li Wei felt it necessary to report it to the captain.
"Report!"
Han Dong didn't look back, his eyes were still fixed on the figure on the track who fell, got up, and continued to stagger forward.
"explain."
"Comrade Su Ran may be unwell." Li Wei said.
Han Dong said calmly: "Isn't it normal to feel uncomfortable when undergoing high-intensity training for the first time
"Captain, what I mean is that Comrade Su Ran might be sick..."
"She said that herself?"
"No, I saw her holding her stomach the whole time."
Han Dong patted Li Wei on the shoulder and said, "You are the soldier with the biggest contrast between appearance and character that I have ever seen."
He looks rough and fierce in battle, but he is soft and kind at heart and easily becomes compassionate.
Li Wei was confused: What does the captain mean
Han Dong raised his eyebrows: Think about it yourself.
Ye Dansha and others sat on the grass and looked at the three people who were still running in circles with boredom.
"I'm starving." Qi Lei wailed while touching his stomach.
"Don't shout. My stomach will cramp if you shout." Song Haoyu had already started swallowing his saliva to satisfy his hunger.
"When will they finish running? Why don't they let us go eat first? Why do we have to wait here?" Ye Dansha muttered angrily, pulling out a piece of grass and holding it in her mouth, but unfortunately the grass was inedible.
"It's almost there. Chen Tao still has one lap to go, and Deng Zian still has more than two laps to go." Shen Yifeng was counting laps.
"They are almost there, but it's still too early for someone! Not only did she get punished, but she also made everyone go hungry with her." Ye Dansha was so depressed.
Song Haoyu shook his head: "Su Ran is also stupid. If she fell down, why not just pretend to be unconscious? But she insisted on getting up and continuing. What a stubborn person."
"She is cute, but she likes to act pitiful and weak. Look at our squad leader, he has been taking care of her all the way." Ye Dansha said sourly. She accidentally fell on the road, and the squad leader didn't react when he saw it.
Liu Yayi, who had been silent on the side, suddenly got up and walked towards the instructor.
She couldn't stand it anymore. Everyone said that Sister Su Ran was not good, but if it wasn't Sister Su Ran today, everyone would be punished. Now Sister Su Ran was being punished, but no one sympathized with her, let alone helped her. Instead, they were sneering and complaining. How noble was such behavior
Her sense of right and wrong does not allow her to stand idly by. She doesn't care whether she will be isolated or not. She only knows that if she does not stand up today, she will despise herself. If she has to rely on being a coward who cannot distinguish right from wrong to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, then she would rather not pursue a career in acting.
"Hey, where are you going?" Ye Dansha shouted.
Liu Yayi turned a deaf ear to him and walked straight to Instructor Han. She stood up straight and said, "Report."
