Chapter 1140: Stay Away from Xu Zhenyu
It was no secret that Wen Xinya and Xu Zhenyu were close to each other . When she first returned to the Wen Family, she was embroiled in a scandal with Xu Zhenyu . Later on, Xu Zhenyu showed up to her coming-of-age ceremony out of the blue . His new image, which was worlds apart from his previous one, took everyone by storm even though they knew that he had become a military major . After all, they did not expect to see him at the coming-of-age ceremony because he was based in the Northwest region .
Although Wen Xinya did not intentionally hide the fact that she was close to Xu Zhenyu, she felt that she ought to keep a distance from him when they were at the camp since he was the commander in charge and she was a freshman going through the military training program . After a quick chat with Xu Zhenyu, she returned to her dorm .
Each dorm could fit at least 20 people . Wen Xinya and Ye Feiyu both chose to take the top layer of the bunk bed .
As soon as they entered the dorm, they heard the girls gathering together and swooning over Xu Zhenyu .
“Hey, did you guys know? That Major who took us on a tour around the camp is Xu Zhenyu, the second son of the Xu family . I heard that he just got transferred back to Capital city . ”
“Oh my god, I didn’t think he’d be this handsome!”
Wen Xinya could not help but take her hat’s off to them . Within just a short period of time, the girls managed to find out about Xu Zhenyu’s background, despite being in an unfamiliar place . Women were indeed not to be belittled .
“I remember that Xu Zhenyu is rather close to Wen Xinya . He was the one in charge of rescuing Wen Xinya when she got kidnapped . I heard that the abductors were ruthless and terrifying . Yet, Xu Zhenyu managed to rescue Wen Xinya in one piece . Oh dear… he’s really impressive!”
Wen Xinya pursed her lips and thought to herself, Si Yiyan was the one who rescued me, okay? Besides… I wasn’t completely unscathed . I suffered a concussion . These girls are helpless . They selectively choose to forget some details .
“Ah… Wen Xinya has returned . She used to be so close to Major Xu . She definitely knows a lot about him,” one of the girls said in shock .
“Ah, Xinya, you’re back…”
Wen Xinya stared at the looks of eagerness on everyone’s faces, after which she swallowed her saliva . Just as she was pondering about whether she should talk to them or not, her mobile phone began to ring .
As happy as a lark, Wen Xinya scurried towards the bunk bed and climbed up the stairs to grab her mobile phone which was sitting on her bed . She chuckled and said, “I’ll go answer a call first . ”
Wen Xinya then scurried out of the dorm with her mobile phone .
Si Yiyan was the one who called . “Are you done yet?”
Wen Xinya smiled and answered, “Yes, I just returned to the dorm . ”
She was just about to grab her phone to give Si Yiyan a call . Yet, he beat her to it and called her first . Seems like we’re telepathic! Wen Xinya thought to herself merrily .
Sensing the joy in her tone, Si Yiyan smile and asked, “How’s the environment at the training camp? It’s your first day there . Are you getting used to it?”
Although Wen Xinya had been through hardship, she had been living a sheltered and pampered life for the past three years and she was rather delicate too . Although Si Yiyan did not oppose to the idea of her joining the military training, he was still worried that she might suffer hardship .
Wen Xinya continued to rattle on and on about the environment of the base camp . First, she complained about the poor environment, followed by the food served at the canteen, then the lack of washrooms and having to share a public bathroom . At last, she complained about Xu Zhenyu . “That jerk Xu Zhenyu actually returned since a long time ago . Not only did he keep it from me, he even mysteriously showed up at our training ground . ”
Wen Xinya did not sound like she was complaining and instead seemed to be playing cute .
However, Si Yiyan immediately felt a sense of threat which gave him goosebumps when he heard Xu Zhenyu’s name . “Xu Zhenyu is your commander?”
He repeated his question .

Wen Xinya answered with pouted lips, “Yeah, you have no idea how shocked I was when I saw him at the auditorium this morning . ”
Wen Xinya knew that Si Yiyan saw Xu Zhenyu as his rival, though she was not bothered by it at all . She felt that she was doing enough by being honest with Si Yiyan as well as her feelings for him .
Si Yiyan’s face turned cold, for he did not expect Xu Zhenyu to return all of a sudden . He had only stopped paying attention to Xu Zhenyu for a while and yet, he had already returned .
Had he known earlier that Xu Zhenyu had interfered with the military training, he would have arranged for Wen Xinya to be away from him .
They will be facing each other every day for a month!
They will be sharing weal and woe for a month!
They will be full of enthusiasm for a month!
This thought made him feel extremely threatened .
However, it was too late to do anything now . Given how intelligent Wen Xinya was, she would definitely find out sooner or later that he had interfered, regardless of how hard he tried to hide it . He knew that he still could not take the gamble because he was aware of how much Xu Zhenyu meant to her .
Si Yiyan racked his brains to think of a way to stop anything from happening between Xu Zhenyu and Wen Xinya .
Feeling a little displeased because she did not get any reaction from Si Yiyan, Wen Xinya threatened . “Hey, why aren’t you saying anything? I’m going to hang up if you keep ignoring me . ”

Si Yiyan snapped out of his trance and said softly, “I was listening to you . ”
Wen Xinya smiled in satisfaction .
Si Yiyan called in a low and rumbling voice, “Wen Xinya!”
Wen Xinya immediately got goosebumps, feeling a sense of danger like she would whenever he addressed her by her full name in a low voice .
Si Yiyan’s voice was cold and his intonations were clear . “Refrain from hanging out with Xu Zhenyu . I don’t like it . ”
Since Wen Xinya was open with her feelings towards him, he did not mind expressing his jealousy and telling her about how he felt .
He’s jealous! Just like that? Wen Xinya thought to herself, feeling both elated yet a little disgruntled . After all, it was Xu Zhenyu, her close friend . However, if Si Yiyan doesn’t like him, he’ll definitely be upset, then he’ll get angry and subsequently, he’ll become sad . Once he’s miserable… my heart will ache .
It’s so hard to make a decision!
Feeling a little bad after hearing her silence, Si Yiyan added, “I mean, you don’t have to intentionally avoid him . Just let nature take its course . ”
Wen Xinya muttered softly, “I… I’ll try my best!”
Si Yiyan finally relaxed . The thin fabric of his shirt was stuck to his sweaty back . He was glad enough to have her agree . He did not need her to promise him anything . After all, the two of them would be training at the same camp where Xu Zhenyu was her commander . Hence, it would be impossible for them to not interact at all .

However, Wen Xinya soon changed the subject and groused . “We have to practice folding blankets this afternoon . They’ll be conducting a check tomorrow . I heard that we’ll be punished and made to stand for two hours if we fail the check . I’m sure you know how terrible I am at household chores . I really wonder if I can pass the check tomorrow . ”
Si Yiyan chuckled and exclaimed, “Folding blankets is really simple . I’ll teach you!”
Wen Xinya’s eyes lit up . How could I have forgotten about Si Yiyan, my super helper?
“That’s what you said! If I still fail to do it properly after you teach me, and end up getting punished tomorrow, I’ll definitely give you a hard time when I’m out of the camp . ”
Si Yiyan burst into laughter and thought to himself, Folding blankets is the simplest chore to do on earth . If she can’t master the technique, it’s definitely not my problem . The student is to blame for lacking talent . So… she ought to reflect on herself instead of blaming me . Wen Xinya is the only person who can be so self-righteous when she’s at fault .
