Chapter 2839: Chapter 29: Second Night’s Drinking Practice (1)

Could it be that the scent of the body wash she chose is just so disliked by the young master?

Harrison Lucas felt depressed, deeply disappointed as her aesthetic was completely rejected by the young master.

Alright, she admits, although raised like a boy since childhood, taste is not something that is easily changed.

Harrison Lucas has a weakness that easily exposes her true identity, which is — a sweet tooth.

Harrison Lucas loves eating sweets, almost to the point that she can’t be happy without them.

But when following the young master, as a man, she could not show this preference.

Firstly, for the sake of her persona, secondly, to maintain her physique for the annual assessment, she had no choice but to redirect this love for sweets elsewhere.

Since she can’t eat sweets, she might as well use something sweet.

Perfume is off-limits, but she can at least buy a fresh body wash with a sweet scent, right?

Unfortunately now, the body wash she carefully selected has been disapproved by the young master she always looked up to... Harrison Lucas’s mood instantly plummeted.

In the afternoon, when Ben Lucas was working in the study room, Harrison Lucas specifically made a trip to the military headquarters, not only buying back that plain-scented body wash for Ben Lucas, but also gritting her teeth and replacing her own.

While putting away her ’collection’, Harrison Lucas held the bottle with some reluctance.

But thinking of the young master’s aversion to this sweet scent, she forced herself to throw them all away.

...

That night, after dinner, Harrison Lucas unconsciously started to feel nervous.

She knew the young master was going to taste red wine tonight, several times she wanted to persuade the young master to drop the idea, but feared he would insist on her giving a reason.

In Harrison Lucas’s anxious unease, Ben Lucas emerged from the training room after dinner and sat on the sofa.

Facing the tea table full of wine bottles, he picked up one of the red wines.

At this moment, Harrison Lucas heard the young master’s magnetic and indifferent voice: "Harrison Lucas, bring the wine opener and glass."

"..." Harrison Lucas swallowed, maintaining composure as she handed over a wine opener and wine glass.

"Major General." She saw Ben Lucas’s slender fingers take the wine opener, uncork the wine elegantly and nobly, and couldn’t help but say: "Well... I have a bit of a headache, want to go upstairs and rest."

Ben Lucas’s sharp brows slightly furrowed, his gaze that was originally focused on the wine bottle now turned to her: "Why would you suddenly have a headache, did you catch a cold?"

Harrison Lucas nodded with gritted teeth: "Yes, maybe last night I accidentally caught a chill while sleeping."

It’s winter now, getting uncovered by the blanket at night is easy to catch a chill, not to mention there was someone last night making her overexert, unable to care for herself.

Of course, Harrison Lucas only said that casually, she actually just wanted to hide early, to avoid dragging the young master into another ’mistake’.

Ben Lucas’s gaze darkened slightly, his angular face showed a hint of frost: "Your physique is too weak, you should exercise more regularly, don’t start slacking just because you entered the military headquarters.

This time we’ll let it slide, you go rest now, starting tomorrow morning you’ll join me for daily morning drills."

Harrison Lucas was so shocked, her jaw almost dropped: "..."

"Well, actually... Major General, I feel my head doesn’t seem as dizzy anymore, I..." is it too late to change her words now?

She really doesn’t want to get up early for morning drills with the young master, his training regimen... she can’t bear it.

Harrison Lucas is typically someone who transitioned to a desk job after joining the military headquarters, relying on intellect and writing skills for a living.

Special Training, especially with Ben Lucas, is extremely brutal for her.

Ben Lucas’s gaze was deep, giving her no chance: "This is an order, now... go upstairs, shut the door, and rest well."

Harrison Lucas: "..."
