Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law-Chapter 1125 - 1124: The Outcome

Wei Qin pursed his lips, suddenly no longer feeling the urge to look for his younger brother. Still, he eventually smiled and said, "Okay!"

Huo Beijiang couldn’t stand watching anymore; the elder and younger interacting as if it were a life-and-death parting. Did they think they were in a movie?

"Alright! If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going first." He was very busy after all, swamped with work to the point of exhaustion. If it weren’t for the fear that Wei Qin might not make it back alive, he wouldn’t have bothered coming.

It had been three days since he’d sneakily gone to see his wife, and he had no idea if the bruises on her had faded.

Once the training was over, he would make sure to give Yu Xiaoxiao a beating so severe she wouldn’t recognize her own mother.

"Brother-in-law, when is Sister Nan Fei coming to see me?" Jiang Yang walked up to Huo Beijiang, looking up at him with hope in his eyes.

"One more month." Huo Beijiang’s expression gradually softened, "If you miss your sister, I’ll take you to see her. But it has to be done secretly, without letting her know."

"Like how you hide and watch every day?"

"Cough cough..." Huo Beijiang coughed uncomfortably, "Don’t talk nonsense."

"Then I won’t go. I’m afraid seeing how hard Sister is pushing herself, I wouldn’t be able to resist pulling her back."

Hearing this, Huo Beijiang felt a surge of gratification as he affectionately ruffled Jiang Yang’s hair.

Two months flashed by, a time span that for many would not signify any change. But for Nan Fei and He Shasha, it was like an eternity. Each day was a living hell, and every minute was an ordeal.

Since being brought into Jilan Mountain by Yu Xiaoxiao two months ago, the two of them had not left the team. They faced various extreme training exercises that could result in severe injuries if not careful. Starting with physical fitness, followed by hand-to-hand combat, rock climbing, marksmanship...

All training was devised to push the human body’s potential to its limits. Marksmanship, in particular, involved live-fire exercises, requiring at least five hundred bullets fired per day. Over two months, Nan Fei and He Shasha had each fired a total of thirty thousand bullets.

That number would shock anyone on the outside; no unit or force could afford such an expenditure. Only in the 36th Division, only the Great Devil, Major General Huo, could afford to throw such resources around. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

In Yu Xiaoxiao’s words, even a pig could be trained into a sharpshooter.

Each task was foreign and brutal, yet it also stirred their blood with exhilaration.

In a word, it was painful but joyful.

At first, the two of them had significantly held back the progress of the first and second teams, causing everyone to be punished together. Nan Fei felt quite embarrassed, but not a single teammate complained or pointed fingers; instead, they helped her to improve together.

The camaraderie among the team members moved her to tears and made her train even more fervently. Only now did she fully understand why Huo Bei cherished the identity of a soldier so much and dedicated his life to it.

That experience of completely trusting your comrades with your life and death was something other professions could never offer. The fervor that oozed from their bones, and the patriotic sentiment to serve the country, was mesmerizing.

In these two months, Nan Fei slimmed down visibly, but her physical fitness and strength improved tremendously.

Activities like rock climbing and hand-to-hand combat, which had seemed impossible for her, had now become second nature.

Although she was still at the bottom of the rankings, she had undergone a transformative change.

"Today is the day to assess the results of the past two months of training."
