My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 57

Quinton greeted the crowd as he said, “I’m the lecturer in charge of looking after our faculty’s students this time, and I’ll join you in the army. Everyone, please do your best in your training, obey your instructors’ commands, and tell me in time if something happens.”

The ladies were elated, and one of them asked, “Does that mean we’re going to see you every day, Mr. Clark?”

“Oh my god, I’m so happy!” said another.

However, before the ladies could get carried away with their infatuation, they were interrupted by Commander Ford, who snapped, “Silence!”

Everyone at the scene fell silent at once. Glancing frostily at everyone, Commander Ford said, “From now on, you’re my soldiers, and I’m your superior. Tell me, what is a soldier’s bound duty?”

Intimidated by their company commander’s imposing manner, the group of ladies didn’t dare to speak. Sophia was the only person who answered in a sonorous voice, “To obey orders, Sir!”

“That’s right—to obey orders!” said Commander Ford as he glanced in exasperation at the few ladies who stepped out of the ranks. “Right now, I’m ordering you to put down the sh*t on your head, put on your army caps, take off your heels, and remove your makeup! Put your Chanel, Dior, and Hermès away; these things aren’t needed in military camps!”

Some of the ladies tremblingly did as they were told and got back in line after that. However, the ladies with powerful backing rebelled.

A lady who had exquisite makeup and wore a pair of heels noticed that Quinton was still over there, and she sneaked glances around her for a moment. Then, she suddenly cried out, “Ah!”

After that, she collapsed in a graceful fashion.

 

“Someone fainted from a heatstroke!” cried the students.

“Hurry and send her to the infirmary!” said a shocked Quinton, who quickly dashed forward and bent down under the envious eye of the ladies. However, as he was about to carry the seemingly unconscious lady to the infirmary, Commander Ford suddenly snapped, “Step back!”

Quinton didn’t know why Commander Ford said so, but now that the military training had started, it was inappropriate for him to step in. Therefore, he could only step aside.

Ford then called two big and burly soldiers over. He ordered
