Chapter 682: Su Ruanyi’s Decision ( 1 )
Although the mixture contained sand, the ratio was 1:4 for cement and sand. Therefore, Su Ruanyi had to use more energy to make sure that the cement wouldn’t fall apart when she controlled the sand.
Because of this, she felt more tired than usual. Currently, she has been working non-stop since morning. Besides 1 hour of break for lunch and several minutes for toilet breaks, she was not allowed to stop.
After she finished moving the mixture, Su Ruanyi couldn’t hold on anymore and collapsed. She lay on the ground while gasping for breath. Her face was flushed from the heat, but her body was drenched in cold sweat.
Standing not far from her, Zhang Yuan noticed her situation and walked over. Squatting beside her, he carried her in his arms and said, "Your physique is too weak. After we finish with the wall construction, we will train your stamina."
The moment she heard this, Su Ruanyi’s eyes reddened, and she said weakly, "V-Vice Captain, you are a devil."
Hearing her words, Zhang Yuan was not offended and laughed instead. He shook his head and replied, "Compared to others, you are already having a good time."
Seeing that she was sulking, he sighed and explained, "The body is the fundamental constitution to contain your energy."
"If your body is weak, not to mention the danger during the breakthrough process, even if you are able to reach a higher level, you will be injured by your own energy when you use your ability."
When she heard this, Su Ruanyi thought about Mo Junjie’s situation and shuddered. Even though she knew that her training was important for her own good, she was only 19 years old.
Before the apocalypse, she was a popular internet celebrity.
Not to mention experiencing vigorous military training, it was rare for her to visit the gym. So when she was training under Zhang Yuan, who used the military training method on her, she felt like dying.
Feeling exhausted and wronged, her eyes reddened, and she cried suddenly. "Waahh! I’m so tired! I want to rest!"
Zhang Yuan was startled by her sudden outburst. He was good at handling his soldiers and knew how to keep them in check. But this was the first time he had faced a young girl who cried like this. He was at a loss.
He looked around and saw that more and more people were staring at them. Under their accusing gaze, he carried Su Ruanyi to a less crowded area and fled from there.
He placed her down and let her sit on a box before he squatted in front of her. He looked at her for a long time and asked helplessly, "Are you done crying?"
Su Ruanyi was feeling better after crying out her emotions. She sobbed and hiccupped as she reached out her claws. The next moment, she pulled at the hem of Zhang Yuan’s T-shirt and used it to wipe her face.
"I’m done," she answered hoarsely.
Looking at the tears and snot stains on his clothes, Zhang Yuan sighed and said, "Go back and have a rest. Tomorrow, you can have a day off."
Su Ruanyi thought that she would be scolded by her Vice Captain. So when she heard his words, she was stunned. She looked at him and asked, "Vice Captain, you are giving me a day off?"
Zhang Yuan nodded and replied, "It’s my fault for treating you like the other members. You are not a trained soldier, and this type of intense training is unsuitable for you."
After a moment of pause, he added, "I will discuss this matter with Sikai and see if he can take over your training."
"Why do you want to change my trainer?" she asked with widened eyes.
"Sikai is used to training new recruits. His method will be more suitable for you."
"But Brother Sikai is a lightning-type ability-user."
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "Right now, you need to build your physique first. Whoever trains you will focus on this. So, it doesn’t matter who your trainer is. If you have a question regarding your ability, you can still come to ask me."
Before she could argue, he patted her head and said, "Rest here for a while before you go back." Before leaving, he gave her a bottle of pond water and several earth-type crystal cores.
After he left, Su Ruanyi was still stunned by the sudden situation. She looked at the crystal cores in her palm and felt confused.
While he was strict, Zhang Yuan did treat her very well. Being her mentor, he was not only responsible for her training, but he also paid attention to her daily life, such as her meals and needs.
The last time they went out on a mission, and she suddenly got her period, it was he who helped her get clean clothes and sanitary napkins. He even accompanied her when she had a nightmare and couldn’t sleep.
She didn’t know if Li Sikai would treat her the same as Zhang Yuan. With complicated feelings, she drank half of the water before she walked back to the villa.
At 7 o’clock in the evening, the Phantom Team members finally returned from the mission outside. After everyone took a bath, they were too tired to prepare dinner and went to the cafeteria for a meal.
As they walked together, Zhang Yuan pulled at Li Sikai and said, "Sikai, are you going out again tomorrow?"
Li Sikai looked at his brother and asked, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?"
"I have something to ask you."
Hearing this, Li Sikai raised his eyebrows and asked with curiosity, "What is it?"
"I want you to take over Ruanyi’s training."
When he heard this, Li Sikai was taken aback. He looked at his brother and then looked at the young girl’s back before he asked, "Isn’t she doing well under your training? Why do you want to transfer her so suddenly?"
