Peng Jingwei paused abruptly once he was being shouted at by the girl who stood higher and slowed down to walk over. It was evident that the girl was influential in The Indomitables.
“Miss Chisi, I—I saw something surprising just now and wanted to hurry back to inform all of you. That’s why I walked so fast...” Peng Jingwei said.
He was interrupted by the girl named Chisi. “Alright, alright, spill it. What’s so surprising?”
The girl was Gu Chisi, the only daughter of a coal businessman in Min City and was quite famous in the military school. Her identity in addition to her innate sense of superiority caused those who were there with her to give in to her as they were peeved but dared not say a thing.
The reason they listened to her so well was not only because Gu Chisi was the vice president of The Indomitables, she was the younger sister of the leader, the president of The Indomitables.
Of course, Gu Chisi was not the president’s biological younger sister. She was the daughter of long-time friend of the president’s family. Simply put, she was the daughter of a friend of the president’s father in the business world.
As for the president of The Indomitables, the strong leader who Chu Ning mentioned to have defeated all six of them alone, he was Duan Xinchen.
The Indomitables was like a gang, or a cult, as its members sat on the field and listened to the vice president, Gu Chisi’s speech.
It was after Gu Chisi cut him off that Peng Jingwei hurried to tell them what happened just now.
When he brought Yun Jian up, he did not think she was Team Monarch’s Slashing God, so Gu Chisi and the other The Indomitables members did not relate the girl to Team Monarch either after listening to Peng Jingwei.
When Peng Jingwei went on to talk about Yun Jian’s looks, he described her seriously, “She’s so beautiful that... Tsk, I haven’t seen such a beautiful girl in my life!”
He even reveled in his recollection for a bit.
Gu Chisi who was also a girl was indignant and asked with a tinge of jealousy, “Is she that beautiful? Compared to me?”
She was only huffing casually but Peng Jingwei who was caught reminiscing about Yun Jian’s beauty blurted, “You’re not even on the same level. Her beauty’s really—”
Before he finished his sentence, Gu Chisi kicked him away. She fumed and led the group of members toward where Yun Jian was at once, grumbling on the way, “I’d like to see how pretty she is!”
...
Yun Jian did not even know that someone was leading several dozens of people to march toward her in rage.
The reality proved that a girl’s jealousy was scary. Girls in their adolescence, especially, could escalate things into an unsalvageable stage because of one petty issue.
Right now, Yun Jian had gone to the military school’s cafeteria with Chu Ning and others.
It was already noon and was time for lunch.
Cafeterias in senior high schools worked by ordering what one wanted and paying by the cafeteria card. Yun Jian was a guest, so her teammates rushed to buy her the meal.
Staring at the rice with four to five types of meat dishes and two to three types of vegetables dishes—courtesy of Chu Ning, Yun Jian paused. Regular students would order one type of meat dish and one type of vegetables dish for themselves at most.
“Hehe, let’s eat!” Chu Ning called out holding her chopsticks before digging into her meal.
As they had lunch, Chu Ning and Chu Xiangnan were still rambling about The Indomitables to Yun Jian.
“Yun Jian’er, you didn’t know huh, the reason the group The Indomitables even formed was because of us, Team Monarch!”
“Hah, they didn’t even have a name for the clique of people hanging out together but when they saw that we have a name, they jumped on the bandwagon and gave themselves a name too!”
“Pft, it’s hilarious. We, Team Monarch, are under an official troop and our name is registered in the military but The Indomitables isn’t even legit!”
