"Letâs go in."
"Wait a minute, who is this lady? Please show your pass." The person, who previously looked straightforward, immediately blocked Sheng Ning with a cold face. "Although you are a beautiful lady, I still canât let you in without a pass."
"This is specially approved by Arthur."
"Then please show Arthurâs special approval document."
Gu Yunbo slapped his forehead, forgetting to take it last night.
"Just give him a call."
"Please wait a moment." He went back to the duty room to consult on the phone, and within ten minutes, Arthur had rushed over personally. Upon seeing Gu Yunbo, he looked displeased.
"Gu, youâre late again. Are you even a coach? How did you promise me yesterday?"
"Iâm not a coach by profession! Iâm just an external hire coach."
"Alright then, no bonus for you this month."
Upon hearing Arthurâs words, Gu Yunboâs face changed dramatically, "Boss, Iâm wrong, Iâll definitely correct myself next time."
"Youâve been guaranteeing me this yesterday, the day before, and the day before that too." Arthur sternly refused her, "So this time, absolutely not."
Gu Yunboâs eyes darted around, and he pulled Sheng Ning to his front as a shield, "Iâm late today because of her. If she hadnât been busy taking care of Hao Zi, we wouldnât be late."
"Alright..." Arthur was about to agree but reconsidered due to Gu Yunboâs repeated offenses and changed his mind, "Even so, your bonus will still be deducted; Sheng canât be your excuse for being late."
"Youâre wrong about that." Gu Yunbo casually blocked Arthurâs shoulder, "Sheâs a top expert. I was late because I persuaded her to show up."
"What do you mean?"
"Itâll surprise you." Gu Yunbo winked at Sheng Ning and whispered, "Show your skills later."
"Is that suitable?" She just wanted to learn combat, not to show off.
Moreover, she wasnât keen on Americans.
"Donât worry, theyâre easygoing. Theyâre just a bunch of simple-minded, physically strong gorillas."
The two spoke in Mandarin, thinking no one would understand, but Arthur got furious upon hearing them.
"Gu, youâre too much."
"Huh? You can understand?"
"Of course! I mentioned before, on the Southern Border Battlefield, I interacted with rescue comrades and can understand Mandarin."
Damn! Gu Yunbo silently cursed.
"Besides the bonus, your salary will be deducted too." After Arthur finished speaking, he greeted the guards and left in a huff. Gu Yunbo quickly followed, while Sheng Ning strolled behind, leisurely taking a tour.
Visiting Xilin University and learning combat was a unique experience.
She wasnât very familiar with the path, walking on the school road surrounded by people dressed in American combat uniforms. Mostly white and black, with a height generally above 1.8 meters, passed by her in teams and columns, some hooligans deliberately whistling.
Sheng Ning calmly observed without taking their teasing to heart.
As for these hooligansâ whistling behavior, if you donât mind, itâs fine. Showing shyness or fear, on the other hand, would encourage them to be more audacious.
She quickened her pace, following in Gu Yunboâs direction, but as she passed a training ground, a tall figure blocked her. Looking up, to her surprise, it was a woman.
She stood at roughly 1.8 meters tall, looking muscular.
