The Lin family's little boy returns to being eight years old, taking his family to new heights.

Chapter 183 Dormitory Environment

Shen Shu smiled and said in a deep voice, "Xiao Xi, come back!"

Lin Xiyi returned to her place, still feeling unsatisfied.

Seeing that the farce was finally over, Shen Shu stepped forward and said, "Commander Ge, it's been a long time."

Ge Bing deeply regretted going downstairs. Tsk, he had embarrassed himself with these guys.

"Instructor Shen, you're amazing! You've trained such talented people in just one week."

"Hehe, it really has nothing to do with me. She trained on her own. She only arrived a few days ago and gave us a hard time. Chen Liang was beaten by her and he's still not fully recovered."

Chen Liang coughed a few times. The captain was really something else. He was even worse than his own students. When his students supported him, he would sabotage them.

But after hearing this, Ge Bing and the others felt much better. Being beaten like this by a child had made them somewhat withdrawn, and they wondered if they had wasted their years of military service.

If Chen Liang also gets beaten up, then he won't become withdrawn.

Ge Bing understood Shen Shu's good intentions and patted him on the shoulder, "Captain Shen, these kids are being silly and causing you trouble!"

Then he looked at Lin Xi with affection, his eyes revealing admiration.

"Little girl, what's your name?"

Lin Xiluo replied gracefully, "My name is Lin Xiluo."

"Oh, okay, Lin Xi, you can spar with them more often when you have time."

"Haha, especially this young man, his name is Sun Dazhuang, he's the toughest, you can beat him up however you want."

Sun Dazhuang took a step back, "I don't want to!"

Lin Xi's eyes lit up. "Really? But I want to fight him."

Seeing Lin Xi point at Jiang Feng, Sun Dazhuang, who had been somewhat resistant, suddenly felt uncomfortable. Was she implying that he was too incompetent?

Jiang Feng didn't dodge. Fighting Lin Xi would actually benefit him the most. Even if he couldn't learn a move or two, his reaction speed would improve. As long as he could become stronger, he could endure any hardship.

Ge Bing's smile widened. "Hahaha, no problem."

No one expected that this long-awaited competition would end like this. Instead of facing the Fierce Tiger Commando Team, they were utterly defeated by a little girl.

Ge Bing had already arranged the children's dormitory and personally led Shen Shu and the others to rest.

Sun Dazhuang quietly followed and pulled Chen Liang aside, saying, "Instructor Chen, I apologize for what happened earlier."

Chen Liang had already heard Su Ming's explanation, so he laughed heartily and extended his hand, "It's okay, I understand."

The moment Sun Dazhuang grabbed it, he felt a sharp pain in his tiger's mouth, as if he were being clamped by iron pincers, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.

Just a few seconds later, Chen Liang let go and followed the group away.

Sun Dazhuang stood there, staring blankly at Chen Liang's departing figure, his eyes filled with admiration. He truly lived up to his reputation as a fierce tiger!

The dormitory was very different from what everyone had imagined; there were signs of repairs and maintenance everywhere.

Looking at the bed legs propped up by wooden blocks and the mottled walls, Lin Xi sighed inwardly, thinking that soldiers are the ones who endure the most and enjoy the least.

Li Xiaonuan patted the old bed board, "I hope it won't collapse while I'm sleeping in the middle of the night."

Jianxi climbed onto the bed with her luggage. "You sleep on the lower bunk, I'll sleep on the upper bunk."

Lin Xi pushed open the window. The glass was so bright it was almost transparent, but the window frame had peeling paint and was covered with nails, indicating it had been repaired many times.

If she had enough money, she would definitely donate it to the military so they could improve their environment.

She turned to look at Shu Zhi, "Shu Zhi, we'll do the same. You sleep on the lower bunk, and I'll sleep on the upper bunk."

Shu Zhi waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no need..."

Lin Xi interrupted, "It's okay, I'm short and light."

To everyone's surprise, these dilapidated dormitories were actually the best-equipped in the entire regiment.

To make the children more comfortable, the soldiers voluntarily gave up their old dormitory and moved in.

At this moment, Shen Shu, carrying the ointment, inquired his way to Jiang Feng and the others' dormitory.

It was a cluster of low, single-story houses, with ruins everywhere and hardly any decent rooms.

Meanwhile, some soldiers were repairing the roof, while others were cleaning cobwebs.

Shen Shu frowned and walked in. A sense of antiquity washed over him. Under his feet was an uneven cement floor, and in front of him was a creaking wooden door. Looking up, he saw that the roof tiles were scattered here and there, some broken and some missing.

Even the bed boards were incomplete; the best were missing a plank, and the worst were just a metal frame.

He originally delivered the ointment to Jiang Feng and Sun Dazhuang, but after looking around, he left with the ointment without saying a word.

The whistle blew, and Lin Xi jumped out of bed. She hadn't even finished getting ready, and they were already starting training?

Everyone hurriedly lined up downstairs, and everyone was assembled.

Shen Shu said in a deep voice, "I'll take you to see where the soldiers are living now."

As you walk along the narrow paths, the environment becomes increasingly desolate until you reach the low-rise bungalows.

Everyone was stunned. This...this is habitable?

Lin Xi looked at the soldiers busily working in the ruins, her eyes slightly warming. Everything was clear now; the dormitories they had complained about were given up by these people.

She stepped forward, raised her hand, and said, "Reporting, Instructor! I request to step down!"

Chen Liang nodded. "Permission granted."

Lin Xi ran to the front of the house, silently picked up the bricks scattered at the door, and threw them into the ruins beside her.

A soldier turned around, saw it was Lin Xi, and snatched the scrap bricks from her hand. "What are you doing here? Go back now!"

Just then, a startled cry came from the rooftop, "They're all here!"

A large group of students suddenly appeared from a short distance away, rushed into the dormitory, snatched brooms, rags, and basins from their hands, and started cleaning up.

The soldiers, who were left dumbfounded, started scrambling at each other after they came to their senses.

"You don't need to clean up, get out!"

"Oh dear, this place is filthy, you should all go back!"

"Seriously, where are your instructors? Aren't they going to do anything about it?"

……

Shen Shu stood outside the door with a satisfied smile, while Chen Liang felt honored and smug.

Jiang Feng and his group were afraid of hurting the students, so they didn't dare to snatch it forcefully and were even pushed out of the room.

Upon seeing Shen Shu, he asked, "Instructor Shen, did you arrange this?"

Shen Shu remained unmoved, saying, "It wasn't me; they wanted to help themselves."

"Aren't you going to have military training? Call them back right now."

Shen Shu remained motionless. "I can't control them. They even said the scenery here is beautiful and they want to stay here."

Jiang Feng glared at him, "Nonsense!"

Chen Liang gestured with his chin, "Battalion Commander Jiang, why don't you go in and take command? These kids aren't very good at working, don't let them tear down the house."

Ultimately, a harmonious scene was created in the bungalow.

Soldiers repaired the roof from the beams, while students passed tiles below. Soldiers laid out bed boards, and students carried wooden planks in pairs.

The girls took rags and brooms and cleaned the dormitory spotless, wiping the windows until they shone.

Lin Xi was strong and used stones to repair the broken leg of the bed.

With a large number of people, the place was quickly cleaned up and looked brand new.

Before the soldiers could even express their gratitude, the children rushed to their instructors to report that they needed to go back and retrieve their luggage.
