Flora had just taken a sip of water and almost choked on it. 

Out of the corner of her eye, Jillian shot her a sneering glance. Sure, Flora might have her beat academically, but Jillian was determined to outshine her in every other way! 

Coming from a family of distinguished military doctors, Jillian was not only exceptional in medicine but also incredibly fit. Flora’s delicate frame didn’t stand a chance against her. 

During the upcoming boot camp, Jillian vowed to show Flora a thing or two! 

Unaware of Jillian’s thoughts, Flora couldn’t care less about her plotting. She climbed into bed, grabbed her phone, and texted Connor. 

**Flora:** Was the boot camp your doing? 

Connor replied quickly. 

**Connor:** Looking forward to it? 

**Flora:** 

… 

**Connor:** Sorry, I missed you too much. 

The next day, at 9 AM, two thousand freshmen dressed in camouflage uniforms boarded buses and headed to the training base. 

They arrived at the base at 11:05 AM. The winding mountain roads made the two–hour bus ride feel endless, leaving some with weaker constitutions feeling dizzy and nauseous. As soon as they disembarked, some couldn’t help but vomit. 

Cynthia was among them, looking utterly miserable and weakly collapsing into Eilies’s arms. 

“Pull yourselves together! Gather at the field!” one of the teachers, responsible for the students‘ safety, shouted through a megaphone. 

Following the teachers, the freshmen made their way to the field. At the entrance, soldiers stood guard every ten meters, lining up on both sides. 

Once all the freshmen had assembled, a group of men in military uniforms strode onto the stage. 

“Is that our chief instructor? He’s so handsome!” a wave of gasps echoed through the crowd. 

Flora lazily lifted her eyes to see Connor standing at the forefront in a military green uniform. His stature was imposing, his features sharp and clear, and his dark, icy eyes carried an air of aloofness and unapproachability. 

Flora clicked her tongue. Such a charmer. 

Connor stood on the stage, his gaze sweeping across the crowd, quickly locking onto Flora, who was positioned towards the back of the third squad. 

Seeing her looking at him, the corners of his lips couldn’t help but curl up into a soft smile, melting the ice like the thawing of the northern glaciers, reviving all things in spring, causing the hearts of many girls to flutter wildly. 

Jillian, standing just in front of Flora, mistook his gaze as directed at her. Such tender and affectionate eyes… 

Jillian blushed, straightening her back, flattered by the thought of her own allure. 

On the stage, Jason, Pax, and Zack saw Connor smile, their expressións one of disbelief. Following his gaze,

they then saw Flora. They were utterly baffled. No wonder the boss suddenly insisted on training the students at the University of Maple Grove; it was all because Ms. Flora was here. 

“Cough, cough!” 

Noticing that Connor’s gaze was nearly glued to Flora, Jason couldn’t help but cough lightly as a reminder. Only then did Connor avert his gaze, the warmth in his eyes dissipating, leaving only a deep, cold silence. 

“Welcome to Empire Base. You will spend the next twenty days of boot camp here…” Connor spoke in a cool tone, his voice deep and resonant, like the most melodious tune played on a cello. 

The female students were so captivated by his voice that they hardly paid attention to his words. 

After Connor finished speaking, all the new students were dismissed to check into their dormitories before heading to the cafeteria for their meal.
