Chapter 106
Sophia’s mouth fell open. She had been to the barracks’ infirmary, and it was well equipped to even
conduct minor operations. If the infirmary couldn’t handle it, then it must be a serious injury.
Stunned, she asked, “That serious?”
The lieutenant nodded. “Well, your punch managed to dislocate her nose that had undergone stic
surgery. We really aren’t equipped for this, so we had to send her to a specialized stic surgery
hospital. If we dy any longer, her face will be disfigured.”
Sophie was speechless. It turned out that Faye’s entire face had undergone stic surgery, and it was
filled with hyaluronic acid and prosthesis. Unfortunately for Faye, Sophia’s punch had dislocated the
prosthesis in the nose.
The barrack’s infirmary could handle most basic medical issues, but they had no expertise in cosmetic
repair, so they could only send Faye out of the barracks. This incident would be regarded as a mistake
by the barracks, and Faye would bepensated with at least eighty points.
Even after understanding what had taken ce, Sophia still had lingering fears. The lieutenant
continued, “I will take you to the new barracks. After you have unpacked your things, you will train
ording to your usual schedule. Your training location is now on the special training field behind me.”
Sophia then followed him to the new barracks.
There was a row of bungalows, with one room per person. Her room was a standard single room and
could notpare to Bayside University’s student dormitory, but it was much better than therge
barracks she used to live in. At least she now had a room to herself, with an en-suite bathroom, air-
conditioning and a TV.
After Sophia settled down, she immediately went to the Third Canteen to eat; those in the Superb
Company had their meals here. There were many canteens in the military camp, and the Third Canteen
is the legendary high-level canteen, for it was where the officers in the army ate.
The atmosphere here was different from the student canteen—very quiet with no one talking. What they
ate was a real battle meal, and they usually finished within a few minutes. There were not many people
in the canteen, and Sophia immediately spotted her cute little boy.
The seat beside Nathan was empty, and a meal was already set, with a big special-made chicken
drumstick dripping with oil. It was obvious that the meal was prepared for her. Sophia ran toward it
happily and ruffled Nathan’s head while saying, “Such a good boy, preparing a meal for me!”
Famished, she sat down and started eating immediately. She ate half of the chicken thigh in one bite!
She then sighed and said, “The food in this canteen is much better than the food in other canteens!”
Sophia gobbled it up, but after a few bites, she realized that something was odd.
Nathan was looking at her weirdly, and those around her were staring at her in horror. Sophia continued
to eat, absorbing everyone’s reactions the whole time. Why do they look like I have grown two heads?
She rolled her eyes twice. Suddenly, she felt the hairs on her nape standing, thereupon a cold voice
came from behind her, “Edwards!”
It’s Joel Fletcher! Sophia jumped in fear, and immediately stood up and gave a military salute. Joel
looked at her nkly and nodded. He had put his food down and went to get some soup. Little did he
know that someone would finish his meal by the time he returned.
Sophia looked at the soup in Joel’s hand and then at the meal she was eating, as well as a man’s mobile
phone that was ced next to that meal.
She then looked at Nathan, who had a “you’re so embarrassing—I don’t know you” look on his face. It
was only then that she realized she was eating Joel’s food.
Feeling like she had been struck by lightning, she stood there not knowing what to do. The special-made
chicken thigh piece was still in her mouth, and it was too big to swallow without chewing. Half her cheek
was bulging and she lookedical, to say the least.
What should I do now? I can’t spit it back out for him, can I? As her mind whirled with these questions,
Sophia decided to y dumb. So, with her cheek bulging, she looked at Joel with a piercing gaze.
The both of them just stood there looking at each other, and the atmosphere was filled with
awkwardness. Joel didn’t call Sophia out, and she, too, pretended that she didn’t know that it was his
food. One was standing upright, and another was holding the soup bowl, while everyone around them
was frozen.
The silencested for more than ten seconds, and it was Joel who broke the silence in the end. He
looked at the chicken thigh that had been gnawed by Sophia, and said in a serious tone that held a trace
of helplessness, “Let’s eat.”
Sophia then answered quickly, “Yes, general.”
She sat down and continued to eat calmly, finishing the chicken thigh in a few bites. After putting down
his soup, Joel went to get another meal. The students seated at this table were all from Superb
Company. Sophia managed to take the General’s food, and became famous before she even started
training!
As such, everyone looked at her, holding back smiles. Joel soon got a meal and sat in front of Sophia.
She pretended to ignore him and continued to eat, her face bent low. After finishing her meal, she wiped
her mouth and left hurriedly, for fear of being punished by Joel.
Nathan followed closely behind. After she was long gone, Joel was still staring at the lunch tray opposite
him. He had been the general for quite some time, and it was so long since someone had taken his lunch
that he was unused to it.
The young man sitting next to Joel suddenly stopped eating and burst outughing. He clutched his
stomach and hit the table whileughing, “Uncle Joel, your special-made chicken thigh—”
Joel stared at the young man angrily, and thetter shut up immediately, but couldn’t resist smiling. It was
probably because his special-made chicken thigh was eaten by someone else which made Joel
unhappy, so he left after taking only a few bites.

As soon as Joel left, the young man couldn’t help butugh, which caused those around him tough as
well.
After they had their fill, they began to ask, “Stan, who is the neer?”
The young man responded to the question with a dignified look, “Uncle Joel said that she is a student
from an ordinarypany with good grades.” He only knew that the neer was called Sophia
Edwards, and was one of the best in ordinary training, hence her reassignment to the Superb Company.
Because of that, she had sessfully attracted his attention. There were still a few days left in military
training, and he would be able to have a good time.
Sophia fled back to her new dormitory and was vexed as soon as the door closed. Oh my goodness! I’ve
managed to snatch the general’s chicken thigh on my first day here, and I’m pretty sure he’s now mad at
me!
Nathan carried his bag and ced it on Sophia’s bed. Sitting on the bed, he regarded Sophia in disgust.
How can she be so good in gaming yet so stupid in real life?
She can’t be my mother! Even so, Nathan still expressed concern about her embarrassment today.
“Don’t worry, it’s just a meal; he won’t mind.” Sophia patted her face helplessly, feeling beyond
embarrassed. What’s done is done! There’s nothing I can do! With that, she freshened up and headed to
the training field for the evening practice.
On the way to the training field, Nathan reminded her, “Those from Superb Company have pretty strong
backgrounds, so do be careful.”
Sophie nodded and said, “Yes, I will restrain myself from punching anyone freely.” Because of her punch,
she was assigned to Superb Company. Is this a punishment or a promotion?
Nathan rolled his eyes and said, “You have to make sure to eat until you’re full. Only then will you have
the strength to fight.” Otherwise, Sophia would be beaten badly.
