Mr. Yuan’s Dilemma: Can’t Help Falling in Love with You

Since the arrival of Su Qingcheng, life in this dull and boring military camp had suddenly become vibrant and alive.

Su Qingcheng loved to smile. Her eyes would curve and be filled with tenderness. Her skin that was fair from the inside and out was so extremely soft to the touch.

Everyone called her Xiaodai affectionately. They liked to tease her and “bully” her by asking her to help and wash their smelly socks.

As her skin was so fair to the point it almost looked translucent, those soldiers who were older than her would sometimes pinch her cheeks.

“How nice would it be if there’s a girl with such fair and beautiful skin! It’s such a waste for you to have it. We could only pinch your face!”

Su Qingcheng knew that everyone was treating her like a little brother and joking with her, so she took no offense.

Tian Qi often complained, “We’re all doing the same routine, but why am I so dark?”

After coming to the military camp for more than a month, Tian Qi succeeded in transforming into a “black fatty” from a black skinny dude. His skin was so dark it had shone brightly in the sunlight. He had also built up tons of muscles. He was literally black and tough.

Su Qingcheng could not help but laugh. “The ultraviolet rays in Yun Nan is naturally strong in the first place. I was born in Si Chuan though!”

Of course, there was another reason for it which was the fact that she was a girl…

She had to continue to keep this a secret since she was afraid that she would be forced to leave the military camp because of her gender.

Shao Yibai was rather sloppy in this respect, so he did not realize it at all.

If he were to observe carefully, he would have noticed it. At least, he would have observed that Su Chengcheng had never taken a shower with them.

This was the case every time. Su Qingcheng would only go to the bathhouse to wash up after everyone had gone back to rest, and every time the door on the inside and outside would be locked securely.

Additionally, although she was thin, the “pectoral muscles” on her chest were not small.

Although Su Qingcheng had three layers of chest strap wrapped around her breast, it had proved to be a hassle to masquerade as a man with that size of hers…

However, this point did not occur to Shao Yibai at all.

The weather had turned cold in late September. The smell of the autumn wind made people feel excited. Shao Yibai’s troops had been stationed in Yan Zhou for several months now. They had gone through mission after mission.

The training was also tough.

Weight-bearing running, exposure-endurance body training, target shooting, swimming, 25km off-road marching with 30kg of weights, skydiving training, field survival training…

Su Qingcheng saw Tian Qi participating in all of it. When the two of them first arrived, they were so thin. Now, he had successfully transformed into a handsome young man with a well-built physique and firm muscle blocks. She, on the other hand, was still mingling between the canteen and dormitory, growing fairer and fairer.

Su Qingcheng was really worried that one day her cheeks would be crushed between the fingers of these brothers…

Finally, she could not bear it anymore and went looking for Shao Yibai for a talk.

“Brother… Brother Shao…”

Su Qingcheng did not participate in the training, hence she had no idea what Shao Yibai’s rank was. She could only call him Brother Shao.

“What’s the matter?” Shao Yibai came back from the training camp and saw Su Qingcheng sitting on the steps with depression written all over her face. In regards to this “little brother”, Shao Yibai could not bear to let her go. After all, she was the one washing their smelly socks, uniforms, and blankets every day.

Then one day, he found that his underwear had even been hand-washed by her…

Shao Yibai was not into boys…

Now that he had known Xiaodai for quite some time already, he actually pitied her a little.

Such a tender little guy was actually a dude. Shao Yibai could not pinch her face or buttocks for no reason like the other soldiers due to his status.

If she were a female…

‘Bah! Shao Yibai, what are you thinking about with that mind of yours?

‘You’ve got a military rank and is a senior commander from the Capital City. How could you have such thoughts for a man who looks like a kitten…

‘It must be because this area is too secluded. I’ve indeed not gone out and wild for a long time…’

The man could not help but laugh at himself. A subtle trace of wickedness lingered on his handsome features, making one’s stirred at the sight of it.

“Brother Shao, I want to join the training too…”

Su Qingcheng was not a hesitant person, but she was feeling a little shy at the moment.

She was aware that with this physique of hers, the chances of her getting accepted was extremely low. Moreover, she would feel a kind of inexplicable guilt every time she came face to face with Shao Yibai. His identity was too noble, whereas she was just a country bumpkin…

The kind of background gap caused her to have a heart that desired to approach and respect him but also made her felt supremely inferior to him.

Shao Yibai regained his neither-good-nor-evil expression and chuckled softly. “You want to be like Tianqi?”

“Mm, mm!” She nodded like how a chick would.

Shao Yibai stared at “his” pink and tender face and “his” pair of pitch-black large and animated eyes. A feeling of tenderness suddenly arose in his heart.

“From tomorrow onwards, I’ll teach you combat skills. It’s absolutely useful for fighting against others and for self-defense. The special forces training isn’t something you can endure for sure!”

Shao Yibai patted Su Qingcheng’s shoulder with his shovel-like big hand as he spoke. Su Qingcheng felt her shoulder burning and that her feet had sunk three inches into the ground below…

She could not be bothered about the pain in her shoulder at this time though. Did Shao Yibai just promise to teach her fighting skills?

Teaching her in person?

“Oh my, I can learn kung fu now? Thank you, Brother Shao…”

Su Qingcheng was so delighted that she wanted to bounce about.

In fact, that was what she did, and she even hopped onto Shao Yibai’s back…

“Muacks!” She planted a kiss onto the back of Shao Yibai’s neck…

Shao Yibai was speechless.

Su Qingcheng was at a loss for words.

“Uhm… I’m just overjoyed, Brother Shao…”

Su Qingcheng realized that she had forgotten herself amid the excitement. She quickly jumped down from Shao Yibai’s back and tidied her clothes. Her tiny face was burning hot, and the tinge of redness on it was seductive!

Shao Yibai touched the spot that she had kissed on the back of his neck and felt a throbbing heat there. There was an inexplicable kind of feeling.

Was he just kissed by a dude?

What a f*cking sensation that was!

Shao Yibai coughed uncomfortably.

Although he was not as serious as the other military officers, he would also fool around in private in the military camp, get wild and unruly. His level of indulgence would even surpass the rest, so his subordinates feared and loved him at the same time.

Like a moon that was surrounded by a myriad of stars, this arrogant man was a revered leader, and he had an excellent family background and upbringing. He was like the devil in training sessions, while he was their leader in private. Everyone would “dally” with him on and off, but being kissed by his men, this was a first…

“Your… Your clothes seem to be too small for you… Your belly is always exposed. The next time when you collect a new shirt, ask for a bigger size…” Shao Yibai pointed at Su Qingcheng’s shirt and said quietly in order to alleviate the embarrassment and change the topic.

Su Qingcheng looked down. She gave a shout, covered her chest and ran away, leaving Shao Yibai alone and stunned. He wondered if this little fellow was sick in his head. The shirt might have been smaller, but what was there to be excited about?

Su Chengcheng cursed herself for being stupid as she ran!

Damn. She had forgotten to wear her chest strap. No wonder Shao Yibai thought that the front of her shirt was too short…

She had even jumped on his back just now. Did she want to die?!

Su Qingcheng covered her face in embarrassment and could not bring herself to see anyone. It was just her bad luck that the team had just come back from their training when she had run all the way to the dormitory. Everyone was exhausted after the day. Each of them took off their shirt and was naked for the top half of their bodies. Wearing only underwear, they brought their toiletries to the shower.

Su Qingcheng usually would avoid this moment deliberately by hiding either in the canteen or somewhere around the training ground. She had gotten agitated and forgotten all about this today. She had run into the dormitory straight away…

Oh man, this was a house full of walking hormones…
