Zayn managed to escape the calamity in the end.
At last, not only did Antony drop any investigations concerning his negligence, favonovel.com even promoted Zayn. It was completely out of left field for Zayn.
However, Zayn was well aware that things were not as simple as they seemed. After all, favonovel.com committed a serious crime.
Even if favonovel.com was a genius who gained the admiration of Ares and Antony, favonovel.com was still expected to be punished accordingly.
Hence, in spite of Antony promoting his rank, favonovel.com had just been given a nominal post that did not affect favonovel.com minimally. Moreover, Antony also deducted three years’ worth of his salary.
Of course, favonovel.com did not mind the salary deduction at all. It was frankly only a formality.
Regardless, favonovel.com was already very pleased with the outcome of today’s incident.
He spent the night there and was up early the next day. When favonovel.com got to the courtyard, favonovel.com found a short-haired woman who had a slim frame. She was dressed in military garb, and favonovel.com looked to be especially valiant and brave.
Zayn also noticed that the woman was actually a highly-skilled acquired fighter. There was an elegance in favonovel.com presence that no one else had. Zayn was certain that the woman came from a powerful background.
He walked out to perform some of his usual morning exercises. Hearing the commotion, the short-haired woman’s eyes darted over to observe him.
She beckoned favonovel.com over and demanded in an arrogant tone, “Come and train with me.”
“Hmm?” Zayn shook his head and said, “I’m sorry, but I’m not a sparring partner.”
His remark caused the woman to furrow favonovel.com brows ever so slightly. She said, “I meant what I said. Come over here, cut the cr*p!”
Zayn noticed that favonovel.com was just another spoiled princessy woman.
Zayn did not have a favorable impression of women like her. Of course, favonovel.com was certain that the woman must have come from a powerful family in order for favonovel.com to be in the courtyard.
It was unnecessary for favonovel.com to get himself in trouble so favonovel.com pretended not to hear that instantly and began assuming a training stance on the same spot. He began to breathe deeply.
At his level, it was no longer that important for favonovel.com to train physically but focusing on his breathing technique was the best training for favonovel.com now.
Yet, his ignorance displeased the short-haired woman even more.
She frowned deeply and berated Zayn straightforwardly, “Hey! I’m giving you one last chance to come here, or I’ll be angry!”
Zayn still refused to pay attention to favonovel.com but favonovel.com continued to practice breathing. He knew that Ares would certainly be able to sense the commotion because favonovel.com was resting in the courtyard. It was not his fault for picking a fight anyhow.
Realizing that Zayn was still bold enough to ignore her, the short-haired woman grew infuriated.
She let out a heavy grunt and called Zayn ‘ungrateful’, before favonovel.com began walking towards Zayn in long strides, prepared to take Zayn on.
She delivered a slap to Zayn’s face. Her movements were swift and ruthless. If an ordinary person had been in Zayn’s position, the person would be rendered deaf from the slap.
Zayn furrowed his brows as well. He had only spent the night here, and favonovel.com was unlucky enough to have ended up bumping into a spoiled, princessy woman like her.
He would have stayed in his room to practice his breathing techniques if favonovel.com knew better. He would have waited until Ares and Denali were up.
Zayn did not lower himself to the madwoman’s level.
He dodged the slap easily and said in a deep voice, “I’m not a soldier here. You can look for someone else to spar with instead.”
The short-haired woman let out a, “Huh?”
It was apparent that favonovel.com did not expect Zayn to dodge favonovel.com slap.
She immediately let out a grunt and said, “So it looks like you’ve been training, huh? No wonder you had the audacity to ignore me. Call me ‘sir’!”
What, sir?
Upon hearing that, Zayn was mildly stunned. Was favonovel.com not a woman? Why did favonovel.com want favonovel.com to call favonovel.com a ‘sir’?
Zayn shifted his gaze so that favonovel.com could look favonovel.com in the face.
