Couple profile photo?
Eileen was shocked.
She felt like her phone was suddenly on fire.
She quickly pushed the phone back to Egbert.
Then she turned around and run, faster than a rabbit!
Egbert stood outside the campsite, watching her retreat at lightning speed.
It left him feeling a bit helpless.
Was it too sudden?
Eileen ran like a dog was chasing her, all the way back to the morning jog team.
Seeing her return, Eddie purposely slowed down, wanting to chat with her.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stunned, “You…”
Eileen frowned at Eddie, impatiently asking, “What’s up with you?”
Eddie blurted out in panic, “Did you get scalded by hot water? Why is your face so red?”
Eileen was taken aback, she reached up to touch her own face.
It was indeed very hot.
At this point, the others turned around, surprised at the sight of Eileen’s flushed face.
Eileen silently scolded herself.
Then she ignored them, angrily snapping at Eddie, “None of your business! Don’t talk to me, I don’t know you!”
After saying that, she left the team again, rushing to the sink to wash her face.
After Eileen washed her face with cold water, she finally felt the temperature on her face drop.
As she wiped her face with her sleeve, she thought about Egbert.
That man was too cunning, talking about couple profile photos…
She must be more careful in the future!
He really knew how to sweet talk.
He seemed to be a man with a lot of dating experience, not a good guy at all!

After giving Egbert a good scolding in her mind, Eileen felt a little better, having regained some dignity.
After finishing the morning exercise, the first day of air force training officially began.
Air force training is different from army training.
་་་་་འ་མཐའ་བ་�ོམས་པ་འག
For example, giant ladders, high-altitude broken bridges, rapid descent, peak climbing and danger crossing, these are all regular items for airborne troops’ training.
Today the instructor was training the eight guests on the giant ladder.
This was a huge soft ladder, on which many people can climb at the same time.
After a whole day of training, it was five o’clock in the evening.
Eileen was in front, queuing up to get food.
Everyone else was exhausted, lying on the table, unable to move.
Eileen got her food and started eating, and only she was eating on the entire table.
Colin was puzzled, “How can you still eat?”
Eileen swallowed the chicken, happily saying, “Because it’s delicious.”
Eddie patted Colin’s shoulder, shaking his head, “Don’t mind her. She’s like that, even if the sky falls down, she can hold it up while eating.”
Colin thought it made sense, so he didn’t say anything.
Eddie started sighing again, “If I knew it would be like this, I would rather go parachuting…”
Because he had parachuted once, Eddie always showed off that he was an experienced parachutist.
But the air force’s “high-difficulty aerial combat training” was indeed not something that anyone could easily complete.
Take this example, you had to put on a safety rope, then carefully moved on the huge climbing ladder, which was difficult enough, not to mention avoiding obstacles.
A slight oversight, a footstep unsteady, you would fall down. You might think that with the protection of the safety rope, even if you fell, it didn’t matter.
Don’t be naive, that rope was only to ensure that when you fell, you wouldn’t die. But it wouldn’t stop you from falling.
In a critical moment, you still had to hold on to anything you could to keep your balance and climb up again.
But could you really climb up again? The people above would attack you, and the obstacles would hit you.
After going through a round, it was simply a double torture of physical and mental!
Recalling it now, Eddie still felt the pain, he lamented again, “Parachuting may be considered easy, but I didn’t cherish it yesterday…”
;
Colin also complained, “I used to think army training was tiring, but at least I just felt tired, and my feet were at least firmly on the ground. But for air force training, my feet are always on all sorts of strange places, I even need to relearn how to stand…”
At this point, there was a faint snoring sound from the side.
Everyone looked over and saw that it was Jaqueline who had fallen asleep on the dining table.
Seeing everyone talking, Eileen also voiced her opinion, “I actually find it quite fun.”
In an instant, six pairs of eyes were locked onto her.
Eilean’s cheeks were full, she lowered her head and mumbled while chewing. “There are tricks to all these, I can tell you if you need.”
Colin’s eyes lit up, he quickly asked, “Tell me! What are the tricks?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Eileen said, “It’s simple, just be me.”
Colin was speechless.
So was everyone else.
While Eileen was training in the military, the Lopez family in the USA was holding an emergency meeting!
On the TV wall in the audio-visual room, they were playing the live broadcast of Defender’s Honor.
On the couch sat several members of the Lopez family.
Derek was the first to speak, “Who wants to say something first?”
Chad gave his opinion, “The birthday party must be grand, because it’s the first time we’re throwing her a party, so it must leave a deep impression.”
Blake didn’t fully agree, “If it’s too grand, she might feel uncomfortable.”
Chad said, “But the grandeur shows class, it shows her noble status, she’s now our family’s darling!”
At this point, Karin Lopez raised her hand.
Chad nodded at her, “Go ahead.”
Karin said, “I think the birthday party is secondary, but the gift must be prepared in advance. There are only five days left until her birthday.”
Sawyer enthusiastically interrupted, “About the gift, I…”
“Shut up!” Blake didn’t even look at his eldest son, scolded him and then asked Karin, “You have known well of your aunt, what kind of gift do you think she would like?”
Karin thought for a moment, “Let me think.”
Simon couldn’t help but say, “I’ve also known my aunt…”
“Didn’t you hear me tell you to shut up?”
Blake was getting annoyed with his two sons, why were they so noisy?
Karin had a sudden realization and blurted out, “I got it!”
Blake asked, “What is it?”
Karin replied, “My aunt loves anything that’s free!”
Blake fell silent.
Chad burst into laughter, saying, “Well then, seems like she’ll like whatever we give her. Now, back to the birthday party, who should we invite?/After all, it’s our little princess from the Lopez family’s first birthday party. I wonder if the President is free on that day.”
Blake said, “I’ll have someone check.”
Derek waved it off, “I’ll handle that, you just focus on the party decor.”
The three men were having a ball.
Chad’s wife, Flossie, holding Isabel, quietly asked Sonia Lopez, “Did I miss something? Have we already acknowledged Eileen as our family member?”
Blake’s wife Sonia shook her head, replying in the same hushed tone, “Nope, didn’t we agree not to jump the gun?”
Flossie looked puzzled, “Then what are those three so excited about? We invite all the guests, even the President, and then tell everyone, Thanks for coming to my daughter’s birthday party, but she won’t be here today, so that’s it?”
Their voices gradually got louder.
Chad overheard and turned around, nonchalantly saying, “No worries, if she doesn’t show up, we’ll just call E
Flossie was taken aback, “Egbert?”
Chad said matter-of-factly, “Who else are we gonna call about Eileen? He’s the one blocking our reunion.”
Egbert.”
Flossie hesitated for a moment, “But, how do you know Egbert would be willing to help? You called off his engagement, even sent him some mocking messages. He’s still mad and has blocked all of you, remember?”
Chad shrugged it off, “No biggie, I’ll use Isabel’s kiddie phone to call him, he hasn’t had the chance to block Isabel yet!”
