Chapter 159
“Two hundred?”
The male officer was taken aback, voicing his surprise, “Mr. Reed…”
Egbert cast a casual glance at him.
The words on the tip of the officer’s tongue instantly retreated.
Actually, two hundred squats were not a big deal for female soldiers, and this level of intensity wasn’t
even worth mentioning.
But these stars, they were not professional soldiers, how could they endure such hardship? They
wouldn’t be able to complete it.
The three female celebrities were also frightened.
Jaqueline’s eyes reddened instantly, she said fearfully, “Mr. Reed, we didn’t mean to
Egbert said coldly, “Before you speak, report. Didn’t you hear just now? Three hundred squats, begin.”
He just added another hundred?
Jaqueline was so scared that tears instantly fell.
Edna and Patti immediately fell silent.
In the end, the production team stepped in to negotiate.
Three hundred squats were simply too much, even the director, a former soldier, thought it was a bit
excessive.
The director asked if they could stick to the original twenty squats, just for show.
Egbert glanced at the director and said sarcastically, “Sure!”
The director sighed in relief.
Egbert added, “You can even do zero, just take your people and leave.”
The director was speechless.
Edna, Patti, and Jaqueline were completely clueless about how things had turned out this way. They
were delicate girls. Shouldn’t girls be treated favorably under any circumstances?
This was still a television program, in front of an audience, why couldn’t Egbert take more care of the
girls?
The director was having a headache, so he went aside and called Major Warner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtInviting Egbert as an instructor was due to Major Warner’s connections.
After the call connected and Major Warner heard the situation, he said directly, “Egbert’s way of doing
things is not something that others can interfere with.”
The director was anxious, “But this isn’t his Moonlight Raptors Team 1, these aren’t his soldiers.”
Major Warner clicked his tongue, “When you invited him, you promised, all actions follow his command,
zero intervention in the program, if you now want to break his rules, you tell him yourself, it has nothing
to do with me.”
With that, Major Warner hung up directly.
With Major Warner unwilling to help, the director could only go and communicate with the three female
guests.
The three were almost driven mad when they heard that they really had to do three hundred squats.
At this time, Egbert was already impatient. He gestured “start” at the two officers.
The male officer immediately shouted to the remaining five guests, “Left turn.”
Eileen followed and turned left.
The officer led the five guests to start their morning run.
Eileen was at the back, her head occasionally turning back to look at Egbert in front of the building.
Every time she turned around, she could see that Egbert was also looking at her.
He stood on the steps, straight and proud, his face was solemn and detached.
He looked quite real.
Only when she couldn’t see Egbert anymore, Eileen turned her head back and continued running, her
face full of confusion.
Meanwhile, a female officer had come over to Edna and the other two.
She ordered, “Begin.”
The three girls looked at each other, then turned their sad faces towards Egbert, hoping he would show
mercy.
Seeing that Eileen had run far away, Egbert turned and walked into the lounge, not sparing a glance at
anyone else.
The female officer said, “Mr. Reed’s military discipline is strict. You either comply or drop out. You
decide.”
In the end, all three obediently squatted down and started doing squats.
Edna and Patti each did two hundred squats, and Jaqueline did three hundred. There was no time limit,
they just had to finish.
At this time, the live comments were flooding in.
-[Didn’t I say it earlier, what good comes from being late?]
[Egbert is too strict. These three girls have to do hundreds of squats, that’s cruel.]
Does Patti not know this is live?]
Have you seen Twitter? Patti’s agentis questioning the production team, why they didn’t inform them
this was live.]
Wow, that’s too much. The production team didn’t tell them in advance?]
-[Did Eileen scold Patti in the car, did she not know this was live?]
[Does Eileen scolding people have anything to do with the live broadcast? Isn’t she always cursing
during her live broadcasts?]
Am I the only one surprised that Egbert is the instructor?]
You’re not alone, didn’t you see how scared Eileen was?]
Egbert holds Eileen’s chin, LOL!]
-[Egbert being the instructor, the show is super cool, and he acts like it’s real.]
[Egbert is professional, whatever he acts is realistic!]
An hour later, Eileen and the others’ morning exercise finally ended.
Next, they had to go eat.
Hearing about food, Eileen happily rushed to the canteen.
As they passed by the lounge, they saw the three girls still doing squats.
Eddie was already half dead from exhaustion, he leaned on Colin and said weakly, “I’d rather do squats
than morning exercise.”
Colin was also exhausted, “Who knew the first day would be weight training. I can hardly stand now.”
The other two male guests were also exhausted.
At this time, they arrived at the canteen entrance, Eileen who was leading the way, dashed in and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpicked up a food tray to join the queue!
Eddie was dumbfounded, he pointed at her shaking, “Look! Why isn’t she tired at all?
With the same amount of training, how could she still be so energetic!
Actually, Eileen was also tired, so during the meal, she ate twice her usual amount!
She needed to replenish her energy!
The four guys didn’t have an appetite, so they quickly finished their meals and could only watch Eileen
eating heartily.
It seemed like she could never finish.
Colin sighed, “You eat so much, where does it all go? How come you never gain weight?”
In the middle of their conversation, more people came to the canteen entrance.
Eddie looked over and suddenly yelled, “Hey, there’s Lucas! Lucas! Over here!”
Eddie’s voice was so loud that the entire cafeteria turned to look at him in an instant.
Lucas, who was originally in line for food, jumped at Eddie’s shout. He quickly turned around,
pretending not to know this goofball.
Eileen took a bite of her food, chewed it while telling Eddie, “Don’t shout like that.”
Eddie felt upset seeing his jungle-war buddy ignoring him.
He was about to say something, but the words got stuck in his throat.
Eddie, Colin and two other guys looked surprised and scared, abruptly turning their gaze behind Eileen.
Eileen noticed their stares. She didn’t understand so she turned around to look.
When she turned around, she saw Egbert.
Egbert was still wearing his training suit. He held his tray in one hand, walked steadily towards them.
Eileen blinked, and suddenly, she heard some noises.
She turned around again to find the four guys who were sitting across from her were gone.
Eileen was speechless.
Then Egbert sat down across from Eileen.
Eileen still had food in her mouth. She continued chewing while staring at Egbert.
Egbert glanced at her, paused for a moment, then suddenly reached out his hand.
Eileen looked at Egbert’s clean and nice hand but didn’t react.
Egbert’s hand crossed over the table, with two fingers he held Eileen’s chin.
Piş thumb moved, wiping away a grain of rice from the corner of her mouth. Then he softly said, “Focus
on your food.”
