Chapter 12:

Condolences

So What If I'm a Girl



Lan Du entered her dorm room and made sure no one was in it, the other three were still in their classes so the room was empty.Lan Du picked up her phone and began calling her mother.


"Mother, could you send a few rolls of bandages over?"Lan Du asked


[What happened, did your chest jump out in front of the class?]


The voice was full of concern and a bit of anticipation which annoyed Lan Du


"Nothing, it is about to break"She said


{Ah, my genes are truely work of Gods, isn't that right?]


Lan Du clenched her fists and replied:


"Indeed your genes are amazing, so amazing I wish I did't have it"She said


[Aw, don't be like that, I'll send it over immediately]


The call then hung up, Lan Du sighed and placed her hand over her face.Today was such a hellish day for her, not only did the instructor increase her training in the middle of the session, her gender almost got busted as well.Now her mother was teasing her through the call.


She quickly went to take a shower to clean herself up and had a change of cloths, but her bandages were now looser than before so she had to be careful.


But before the bandages were delivered, her three room mates came back to the dorm.Lan Du became wary of them and laid on the top bunk with her back facing them so no obvious hints would be shown.


"Eh, Lan Du, its not even the evening and you're already tired?"Fatty asked


Lan Du said with annoyance


"Not only did the instructor increase my run today, he even had me wear forty kilos of weighted gear as I ran the last two laps"Lan Du groaned


"Forty kilos!Damn, you're a monster, even Tie Wang can't run with those wights for long"Fatty said


The other two nodded in agreement.


Lan Du chuckled


"On the plus side, I had the Xie sisters support me for some time, heh, teasing them just can't get old"Lan Du said with a smile


The three booed at him


"Hoes over bros, Lan Du, you two timing playboy"They shouted


Lan Du turned her head and sneered


"At least I have girls to play around with, look at you three, I'm sure you get avoided more than I get attention"She said with a grin.


The three felt like they were dealt a heavy blow, Lan Du's words has struck them where they were the most vulnerable.


Lan Du began laughing, soon after, a knocking was heard and a woman's voice called out.


"Du'er, I brought you the things you wanted"


Lan Du got up slowly so the bandages won't break.She opened the door to see her mother holding a small box in her hand.


"Thanks"She said and took the box.


"Whats in it"Her three curious room mates poked their heads in trying to find out what Lan Du got.


Lan Du pushed them away


"Don't get too close to me, you three are still covered in sweat"She said with annoyance and went to the toilet.She locked the door so none of them could get in.


Lan Xin smiled and took a seat without them knowing.When they turned around, they saw her smiling at them as she sat on the bed.


"How have you three been doing?Thanks for taking care of Du'er all this time"She said with a smile


Fatty scratched the back of his head with embarrassment and replied


"Nonsense, he was the one looking after us, the day we look after him is the day he is crippled"Laughed fatty


The other two agreed, Lan Du was just too monstrous, if she needed taking care of, then no one in this world didn't need to be taken care of.


"haha, don't be like that, although Du'er seems hot headed, he actually has a weak heart at times, you three and the two adorable girls need to support him"She said and stood up, preparing to leave.


Lan Du walked out the toilet at this moment and whispered to her mother


"thank you"she said and went back to her bunk.


Lan Xin smiled brightly and left off in a joyous mood.


Lan Du smiled at her mother's figure as she left, she sat on her bed and looked down towards the other three who were now talking with each other.


"You three should take a shower, I can smell you from here"


The three took a whiff at each other but they acted as if they smelled nothing.


"Do we really have to?"They asked as they looked up


Lan Du was too tired to do anything, she sighed and shook her head.


"No you don't, I'm too tired to do anything, turn on the fan as well, I'm feeling hot in here"Lan Du said as she tugged her shirt.


When she did so, her thin waist was revealed when the three looked up, Lan Du's skin was white and smooth.Ling Shou and fatty suddenly, they felt their nose become runny and noticed a few drops of blood, they quickly covered their noses but felt a hot sensation from below.


"i-its really hot in here, Tie Wang, turn on the fan"fatty said quickly


Lan Du didn't realised, she wiped the trickle of sweat from her forehead and sat back.


"Thanks"she said as she sat back, not noticing their reactions.


Tie Wang looked at the two weirdly


"You two...have a thing for guys?"he asked, their actions were extremely questionable


"Of course not, its just hot in here"Fatty and monkey shouted at the same time


Lan Du threw a pillow down at them


"Noisy"she said as she tugged her shirt again, the bandages made it very stuffy for her so it was easy for her to sweat.


Fatty and Ling Shou felt their lower half rise slightly when they saw her slim waist again, they covered and jumped onto their beds.


Tie Wang shook his head helplessly at them, and they still try to deny it.


'These two are definitely crooked, I need to be wary and warn Lan Du...'He thought as he sat down on his bed.


The whole room felt hot even though the fan was on, Lan Du's as pure heat but Fatty and Ling Shou's heat came from their...*cough* young men's nature.


Lan Du turned her head back to the book on her bed and picked it up.She began flipping through the pages as she relaxed herself, the day has been quite stressful.


Fatty and monkey were trying to calm down their little brothers between their legs.


'why does he have to be so pretty dammit!'


They both shouted in their heads but didn't dare say it out loud.


Tie Wang stared at them, there was both worry and fear in his eyes, his close friends has turned crooked and so he no longer knows what he should do to help them.


He can't just say Lan Du is too dangerous to love, can he?He wants to support them, its just that Lan Du was a guy!And one that can break their legs like breaking sticks!


Lan Du wasn't someone a boy can love, only one that a boy can fear.Why did they even feel this way anyways?


Tie Wang decided to not think about it instead, if he kept thinking about it, he might accidentally spill it in front of Lan Du.If he did that, he won't even know how he died.


Lan Du looked out the dorm windows.The sun was still up high but she felt like taking a nap, after all, the day has been quite the ordeal.


Lan Du put the book beside her pillow and laid down slowly.She closed her eyes and her mind slowly faded into dreams.


Hours passed before she knew it, Lan Du woke up in the evening and stretched her body.She felt stiff all over but her head feels lighter.


Lan Du got down the bunker and felt her stomach rumble.


"Lan Du, you're up?We got some cup noodles, want some"She turned to see fatty, monkey and Tie Wang sitting around on the floor eating cup noodles.


Lan Du replied as she wiped the drool fro the side of her mouth


"Yes please"


She grabbed a cup and boiled it.She waited patiently by the side but the three could tell she loved to eat.She had an eager expression as she stared at the cup noodles.


'i-its kinda cute'


They all thought before shaking their heads.


"I'm a guy, how can I think of such things!'


Lan Du was too focused on the noodles so she didn't notice, the moment the noodles softened, she grabbed the cup and began eating.


She stopped after a few seconds to blow on her tongue, the noodles were still quite hot so she burned her lips and tongue.The three watched as they saw her blow her small tongue, they blushed slightly and continued to eat as they shifted their gazes away.


Lan Du stared at the noodle, hoping it would cool down soon so she can start eating.She soon was tempted by the smell and began eating without minding the heat.


"Lan Du, do you like cup noodles so much?"fatty asked


Lan Du shook her head


"I have always been a glutton, also, after eating what my mother has made, do you think you can eat food without showing such bliss?"


The three looked at each other and nodded, Lan Du's mother was so bad at cooking, her food could kill people in the thousands if spread.


The smell alone made it hard to eat, much less the taste.They remembered how they passed out for an hour straight after having it.


"You're right"


Lan Du gave them a smug look and a smile that said 'I was right'.


Fatty and Ling Shou covered their mouths and turned to the side.


'Why is he so much like a girl at times like this...'


Lan Du didn't know why they were like so but she continued to eat like no one's business.After finishing, she wiped her mouth and stood up.


"Its almost night but we still have some time, don't be too noisy while I check the schedule tomorrow"She said and went back up her bed.She picked up the book she was reading before and took out a slip from within.


She began skimming through the pages and seeing if there was any oddity about it.She lanced and noticed that there is a lot of theory work hat day so she calmed down.


As long as it wasn't physical work, she was fine.With that demon of an instructor, she would die before she left for the main army.


"Fatty, Ling Shou, Tie Wang, you three are in the same class right?"She looked down and asked the three who were still seated on the floor eating cup noodles.


"Yeh, why?"Tie Wang asked


"Nothing, how is your classes physically wise"she asked


Fatty smiled and understood


"Compared to you, our class is considered a breeze, seriously, running eighty meters with forty kilos of weight on you, you are just too much of a monster, we only run about two hundred meters at most, three hundred if our instructor is in a bad mood, but you had to do four hundred, my condolences man"Fatty said


Lan Du wished her instructor was that light on physical training, but what she doesn't know what that whichever instructor she had, they would do the same.After all, she had immense physical abilities, so all the instructors wants to push her to the limits.


Lan Du smiled wryly


"You three are quite lucky, apparently instructor Lu used to be called a demon instructor that trains elites"She said bitterly.


The three stared at her in shock


"You have the demon as your instructor, good luck man, one of my friends quit this academy because of that demon"Ling Shou said


Lan Du sighed, he luck was just that bad, but she felt that instructor Lu's training was indeed effective for her.Jiust a bit harsh.
