She was born to stand out, but then she met her natural nemesis. She wasn't even one of his soldiers, yet whenever she faced his imposing presence, she couldn't help wanting to give in.
"Are you afraid of me?"
At last, one day, he realized this was a serious problem. It was only natural for people to fear him, but she couldn't be one of them. She was his beloved wife! Putting on his icy expression, he prepared to gently coax her.
"N-no, I'm not afraid."
The delicate little thing, as timid as a rabbit, stammered out a reply, but her trembling voice and body gave her away. Come on, who was he? Did she dare tell him the truth?
"Zhong Qing!"
"Yes!"
"Are you afraid of me or not?"
"I am!"
By a twist of fate, when she finally had the good fortune to become one of his soldiers, her courage burst forth under all that pressure.
"Zhong Qing, you're late. Run ten laps as punishment!"
"I'm not running!"
"Not running? You've got some nerve!" he roared inwardly, though he couldn't help feeling helpless.
No matter what, he was a senior commander, and he would never allow his beloved wife to keep acting like a deserter. He would show her the authority of a commander. Until his mission to train his wife was complete, the revolution could not succeed!
