<strong>Capítulo 1372: Chapter 1373: Bumpkins Who Only Know How to Run</strong>


    Cheng Wn waited there for quite a while before Li Bingbing finally ran back.


    Her entire body was drenched in sweat, her hair disheveled. You could vaguely catch a whiff of sweat from her, just like a man, which somewhat contradicted her perfect goddess image.


    Fortunately, she wore a pair of sneakers this time; otherwise, she’d be showing off her toes again with this long run.


    Seeing Cheng Wn standing there, Li Bingbing hurried over.


    “Sister Lan, why are you here?” Li Bingbing panted heavily as she spoke.


    Seeing Li Bingbing’s exhausted appearance, she asked, “What are you training for?”


    “I don’t know either; he just has us running,” Li Bingbing confessed.


    “Why are you back sote, while Xiang Yu returned ages ago,” Cheng Wn questioned in confusion.


    Li Bingbing looked a bit embarrassed. Only after running personally alongside Xiang Yu did she realize how astonishingly strong this guy’s stamina was.


    “We started running from here and then ran all the way there…” Li Bingbing exined her route.


    “What?” Cheng Wn was shocked, her mouth agape. She asked with some doubt, “Are you saying, that’s your running schedule?”


    Li Bingbing wasn’t surprised by Cheng Wn’s astonished expression, so she nodded, “Who’d have thought Xiang Yu’s stamina would be this good.”


    “What else are you doing besides running?” Cheng Wn asked, still surprised. Simple running could only improve stamina and wouldn’t necessarily boost fighting ability.


    Li Bingbing shook her head; she wasn’t sure what training Xiang Yu had nned.


    Just then, Xiang Yu emerged from his shower, dressed in fresh clothes. He looked at Li Bingbing and said, “Ten minutes to prepare, there’s another training task soon.”


    Having said that, Xiang Yu directly returned to his room.


    Upon hearing she had only ten minutes, Li Bingbing went inside to wash up.


    Cheng Wn walked in and sat opposite Xiang Yu, asking, “Do you have any ns for the training?”


    Xiang Yu casually shook his head, “No n, just doing whateveres to mind.”


    Cheng Wn was somewhat frustrated but, since Xiang Yu was the instructor, she seriously said, “You must take this seriously. It’s not child’s y. This concerns their safety during future missions.”


    “Oh, got it.” Xiang Yu nodded earnestly.<fn005a> ???s ??????? ?s ?????? ?? Find?Novel</fn005a>


    The reason Xiang Yu agreed to join the mercenary group was to get closer to Cheng Wn. Now was a prime opportunity.


    “How long has Commander Cheng been here?” Xiang Yu tried to appear amiable, like he was harmless.


    “You don’t need to know that, just focus on training the team well,” Cheng Wn quickly interjected upon seeing Xiang Yu trying to pry into her background.


    “If I train them well, is there any reward?” Xiang Yu asked.


    “No. Training them well means you get to live; training them poorly means you may die at any moment,” Cheng Wn replied bluntly.


    Xiang Yu was left speechless. Getting close to Cheng Wn wasn’t going to be easy. This would have to be done gradually; rushing would only make her wary.


    “We’ve recently epted a small task. I’m nning to let your two groups carry it out. Be prepared,” Cheng Wn nced at Xiang Yu.


    She expected to see some reaction on Xiang Yu’s face at the mention of a task, but he only nodded without any change in expression.


    “When?” Xiang Yu asked.


    “In two days. We’re currently negotiating the price. You’ll be notified in two days,” Cheng Wn said as she stood up.


    And Xiang Yu remained sitting there, lost in thought.


    “I’m leaving now,” Cheng Wn reminded Xiang Yu.


    Xiang Yu quickly stood up and smiled, “I’ll see you off.”


    Cheng Wn was a bit speechless; it seemed Xiang Yucked the notion of seeing someone off.


    Cheng Wn turned to look at Xiang Yu after reaching outside and said, “Get prepared. This is just to give you some exposure. The main task lies with Ivan and his team.”


    For Cheng Wn, this was the first task since forming the mercenary group, and it had to bepleted well.


    She believed this task should bepleted by Ivan and his team. For Xiang Yu and the others, it was merely to gain some experience.


    Ivan used to be a special agent, so this small task shouldn’t be a problem for him.


    Just as Cheng Wn was about to leave, a car drove up from a distance.


    The car stopped next to Xiang Yu; the window rolled down, revealing a familiar face.


    “Xiang Yu, long time no see,” the personughed heartily.


    The man had regr features, a fairplexion—a handsome guy, you could say. He was Wang Li from the old second group.


    In the passenger seat was Wen Shengbao.


    Xiang Yu nced at him but didn’t respond, turning to head inside instead.


    Even though he wished to deal with Wen Shengbao, they were all part of the mercenary group now; it wasn’t the right time.


    “Xiang Yu,” Wang Li shouted mockingly when he saw Xiang Yu ignoring him, “I heard your team only runs every day—is that true?”


    “Hey, don’t walk away, I’m not finished talking.” Wang Li said, jumping off the car.


    When he jumped off the car, he noticed Cheng Wn standing in the distance.


    “Sister Lan, you’re here too?” Wang Li said awkwardly.


    When he had driven up just now, he had his eyes on Xiang Yu and hadn’t noticed the person beside him.


    “Why aren’t you training? What are you doing here?” Cheng Wn frowned at Wang Li.


    She knew the bad blood between Wang Li and Xiang Yu—he was clearly here to cause trouble.


    “I’vee to deliver the instructor’s orders,” Wang Li said cautiously.


    Though he was now a team leader, his status was far below Cheng Wn’s.


    “What orders?” Cheng Wn questioned.


    “The instructor said we have a task in two days, and we’re here to inform Xiang Yu’s group—to see who canplete it first,” Wang Li said.


    Cheng Wn nodded briefly; she had divided her Lanhua Mercenary Corps into two teams, and letting thempete was not a bad idea.


    Moreover, it would intensify their training and invigorate theirpetitive urgency.


    “You can discuss matters, but there can’t be any trouble here. If I find out, there won’t be any leniency,” Cheng Wn said coldly.


    “Understood, Sister Lan,” Wang Li replied seriously.


    With a nod, Cheng Wn left.


    Wang Li exhaled audibly once Cheng Wn left, then looked at Xiang Yu standing there, “You heard what I said, right? The instructor sent me to tell you—we’ll see whopletes the task first.”


    “Not interested; you can leave,” Xiang Yu replied curtly.


    First of all, he didn’t know what the task was. Xiang Yu rarely made decisions on things he didn’t understand.


    “Don’t dare topete?” Wang Li sneered.


    “If you’re scared, just say it. You better stop training—just a bunch of hillbillies who know how to run.” Wen Shengbao loudly mocked from the car…
