Zhou Xuefeng silently stood closer to Lu Shouming, trying to find an ally and increase his sense of security.

Lu Shouming still didn't want to pay attention to him, but he rarely chased him away.

Before this, he thought Zhou Xuefeng was too weak and was unwilling to associate with him, but now, he found that he could only resign himself to the fact that all the people present were on Zhou Xuefeng's side.

Coming to be someone else's guard, but being unable to even beat the person being protected, what kind of thing is this?

But he had to admit defeat, and he promised Su Yuanyuan, "I will work hard to improve in the future."

Well, from now on he should get up two hours earlier every day and practice more.

Su Yuanyuan had no objection to this. She had previously asked Sister Min to help them get a feel for the situation. To test their strength was one aspect, but the main purpose was to subdue them so that they could get along better in the future.

Didn’t Xu Jiahe tell her to get used to it by working with them?

Now that she has taken action herself, it seems the effect is better than expected...

Su Yuanyuan nodded casually at Lu Shouming's assurance, "You must improve yourself. After all, the dangerous environment you will face with me may be more dangerous than what you encountered in the army. You must be mentally prepared."

"In this regard...you can handle it on your own. Protecting me is one thing, but the most important thing is to protect yourselves."

"I'm going to say something else."

Seeing that both of them were looking at her seriously and listening to her attentively, Su Yuanyuan felt satisfied.

He continued, "After all, you are my assistants, so you can't just stand there like bodyguards."

"When you are out, you can be bodyguards, but at home, you have to fulfill your duties as assistants. I will often give you some information to help me organize, or assign you some experimental tasks. You may not be able to do it well at the beginning, it doesn't matter, you can learn to do it slowly. You may not be able to do it well, but over time, you have to let me see your progress."

"Your room is right across from my master's room. It is both a bedroom and a studio. You will eat, live and work there from now on."

At this point, Su Yuanyuan glanced at the two of them and said, "Or should we arrange an extra room for you? If you are not used to living with others, you can ask for it now."

Su Yuanyuan looked at the two of them.

Zhou Xuefeng looked at Lu Shouming.

Lu Shouming said directly, "No need, the double room is already very good."

As a soldier, you have lived in rooms of eight or ten people. How could you not be used to living with others?

Su Yuanyuan saw that he didn't mean to force her, so she nodded, "Well, that's great. You can help each other. If you don't understand something, you can discuss it with each other. If you can't figure it out by yourself, come and ask me."

"Can I ask you?" Zhou Xuefeng asked weakly.

Su Yuanyuan smiled, "Of course, after all, you guys come to be my bodyguards for free and you didn't charge me any money, so I have to give you something in return."

Zhou Xuefeng felt inexplicably guilty and muttered, "I'm just afraid... you won't be able to use us at all."

He thought his voice was low enough, but Su Yuanyuan heard every word he said.

She said, "Of course it's useful. Two fists are no match for four hands. With two more of you, at least there are four more hands."

Zhou Xuefeng: “…”

Lu Shouming, who was caught in the crossfire, said: "..."

Well, they are just here to make up the numbers.

"Okay, I've explained everything that needs to be explained. Go clean up your room and get familiar with the environment. Since you just arrived today, I won't assign you any tasks. So arrange your time."

Su Yuanyuan walked back after she finished speaking. "I still have things to do. I'll go back first."

While she was explaining things, Sister Min had gone back to her room, so Zhou Xuefeng and Lu Shouming were the only ones left in the yard.

The two of them watched silently as Su Yuanyuan returned to her room and closed the door, then walked towards the room assigned to them with mixed feelings.

The room that Xu Jiahe had arranged for them in advance was simple but quite spacious. When they opened the door, they saw a simple square table in the middle with a thermos and a teacup for drinking water on it.

On the left and right sides, there are antique shelves with simple shapes, which separate the two areas into separate spaces.

There is a desk inside the antique display cabinet, and further inside the desk is a screen. Behind the screen, a corner of the wardrobe can be vaguely seen, and probably there is also a bed.

Zhou Xuefeng asked flatteringly, "Brother, which side do you choose?"

Lu Shouming stood on the left side when he entered the door, and went straight to the left. "It doesn't matter, it's all the same anyway."

"Well, I'll be on the right then."

Zhou Xuefeng walked silently to the right.

Walking into the antique display cabinet, he saw his own desk and a bed covered with a soft mattress behind the screen. He sighed to Lu Shouming on the other side, "These conditions are pretty good."

Much better than he imagined.

After hearing what Su Yuanyuan said before, he thought that two grown men might be asked to share one bed.

As a result, not only the beds were separated, but also the activity space was separated.

Lu Shouming rarely responded to him, but he warned him, "Speak softly, I can hear you."

Zhou Xuefeng looked through the two layers of antique shelves at Lu Shouming on the other side, "Isn't it a little far away? And why do you have to speak in a low voice? You have to speak in a low voice in your own room? Isn't this too weird?"

Lu Shouming: “…”

Lu Shouming had no choice but to deal with such a bad teammate. It seemed that he could not get rid of him at the moment, so he could only try his best to guide him.

So he walked to the square table at the door and sat down, waving at Zhou Xuefeng, "Come over here, let's have a small meeting."

Zhou Xuefeng thought that Lu Shouming wanted to establish a rule with him for living in the same room from now on, so he walked over reluctantly.

Although he admired Lu Shouming very much, but... when it came to such trivial matters, it did not prevent him from thinking that Lu Shouming was fussy.

A grown man... he is so particular about this and that...

Unexpectedly, Lu Shouming said, "Didn't you realize that Comrade Su and her master both have very good hearing? Not to mention your yelling just now, I doubt they can hear us talking like this."

Zhou Xuefeng was dumbfounded. He touched the chair and sat down in horror. "Ah? Is this true? How is that possible?"

"How is that impossible? Have you forgotten how Comrade Su invited her master out just now?"

When Lu Shouming thought of that scene, he felt that his speculation was not wrong. "Whether it is true or not, in the future, whether you are in the room or in the yard, try not to speak loudly, so as not to disturb them."

Zhou Xuefeng nodded stupidly, "Okay, okay."

Lu Shouming saw that although he was stupid, he was at least obedient, so he continued, "Also, what do you think about our next duty plan, training plan, and study plan?"
