Lisa was like a newly hatched chick who took to week to adapt to the new environment. Just as she became more familiar with her new lifestyle, she was hauled off in a bus to military base a hundred kilometers away from school.
They had a mandatorily spend a month in this place that was miles away from civilization. The one month stay coincided with the National Day Golden Week. This meant that students were going to spend the week long holiday celebrating their country's birthday carrying out military training.
The very thought of this could move one to weep large tears.

Park Chaeyoung that lass had exceptional acting skills. During training, with a pale face, she would often weakly sway and fall towards the ground before being allowed to rest at a corner. Lisa also tried this once but was exposed by the military instructor and sentenced to run additional laps. After that incident, she gave up resisting and carried out all assigned tasks with no further complaints.
A month later, Lisa ended the military training just in time to welcome the weekend. As a result, she headed home.
She was with Jimin. The two stepped out of the train station and Lisa gave her father a call. "Dad, where are you?"
"I'm at exit 1. Are you guys here yet?"
"Yup, we're at Exit 1 too...." As she spoke, Lisa saw her father heading towards her with a phone in his hand. She cheerfully waved to him.
Principal Manoban ignored her gesture and stepped past her.
Lisa: "????"
Over the phone, Principal Manoban was still sceptical. "I didn't see you at all. Have you gone to the wrong exit?"
"Dad...." Behind him, Lisa faintly called out.
Principal Manoban promptly turned. Upon seeing Lisa, his mouth fell open. A look of astonishment appeared on his face and he immediately burst into laughter, "Hhahahahaha!"
Lisa: "...."
Principal Manoban remarked, "How did you become so dark? Oh my heavens, I can't even recognize you anymore. You guys actually went to mine coals instead of going for military training, didn't you?"
Lisa was depressed. "I know I became darker. Stop reminding me".
"Alright alright, I'm sorry, It's daddy's fault. I'll stop reminding you". Principal Manoban held back his laughter and appeased Lisa while leading them to the parking lot.
On the way there, Jimin and Lisa went to the washroom. Principal Manoban waited outside and eagerly gave his wife a call. "I've picked them up. We'll be home in a while. Come back home earlier. You need to see how dark she's become. I walked past her earlier and didn't recognize her at all. She looks just like a stowaway from Africa....tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's like an egg becoming a century egg! Eh____" Principal Manoban was still chatting enthusiastically when he turned and saw his dear daughter standing there to catch him red handed.
Lisa stared impassively at her father.
Principal Manoban was somewhat embarrassed. He feebly reassured her, "It's perfectly fine. You look slimmer with a tan...."
In an especially innocent tone, Lisa deliberately shouted towards the phone, "Daddy, that lady just now seems to be going in the same direction as us! Do you want to give her a ride? It's the one that you said was really pretty and even added on WeChat! Have you already forgotten?" After saying this, she merrily stepped into the washroom.
Principal Manoban was left to fend for himself. "Wife, I didn't! Don't listen to her nonsense! You have to believe me, I'm not that kind of person...."
