 The movie Like love was adapted from this novel.

 *******************************

It is the fourth day of military training and the sun is still scorching. The whole field is very quiet as everyone is wearing their camouflauge uniform and standing under the burning sun. They are not allowed to move and they can only stand upright for 2 whole hours. Although it is supposedly to train your persistence, Mai Ding’s both legs are aching badly and he wants to bend or sit down. But the strict look on the instructor’s face only allows him to remain in position. Beads of perspiration flow down bit by bit as his head is starting to have fainting spells.

An hour has passed just like that as Mai Ding’s eyes starts to show double visions. It seems like he is experiencing heat stroke and about to faint. He slant his head to look at An Ziyan as he staggers to walk towards him with only one thought in his mind: if I want to faint, I want to faint in front of An Ziyan so that he can bring me to the infirmary. For the sake of friendship, for the sake of bisexual, fighting!

But Mai Ding eventually didn’t managed to endure that far as he couldn’t stand already when he is just left with one more step. A super plump guy caught the skinny and frail Mai Ding before shouting, “Instructor, someone has fainted!” The plump guy’s bad breath was all splattered over Mai Ding’s face which made him even more giddy. He stretched his hand towards An Ziyan requesting for help but An Ziyan only stood by the side and looked at Mai Ding coldly.

“Quickly send him to the infirmary!”

“Yes.”

Plump brother carried Mai Ding and because of the sweat smell emitting out from his body that attacked Mai Ding’s nose once again, Mai Ding finally fully fainted without any reaction or struggle. By the time Mai Ding woke up, he is on the bed in the infirmary. He looked at the time and he realised that it is already in the afternoon as he can’t believe he slept for so long.

Li Ming carried some food and walked over while throwing it on the bed saying, “ You must be enjoying now since you got to sleep for so long.”

Mai Ding wolfed down the food and he asked Li Ming with his mouth filled with it saying, “How did you manage to come here?”

“Just resting and I remembered that you haven’t eat yet so I brought you some stuff over. Oh and instructor told me to tell you that you can rest till afternoon but you have to be there for night’s practice.”

When it was night time, Mai Ding is already feeling much better. He waited till the night is darker before sneaking to the back of An Ziyan.

“Hey, classmate, it’s me Mai Ding. I am behind you.”

An Ziyan rolled his eyes.

“Why didn’t you save me just now? To think that I still gave you a bottle of sunblock lotion.” Mai Ding move closer to An Ziyan as he whispered to him.

“I still thought we are friends already? Is this how you treat your own friends?”

An Ziyan then raised his hands saying, “Instructor, this asshole is not standing behind me.”

The instructor looked at Mai Ding and shouted to the loudest volume with ease, “Why are you standing there again? Stand back at your original position! You don’t have the slightest idea of teamwork is it? Short people should stand at the short people area.”
