After being startled by Ye Sanshi’s voice, the recruits swiftly turned around and stood at attention. However, fear was no longer present among them. Some even eagerly made way for Ye Sanshi to see the blanket on Wang Ye’s bed.
...“Hmm?” Ye Sanshi expressed his surprise and promptly got up, not even bothering to put on his shoes. He rushed over to Wang Ye’s bed and carefully examined the blanket. Then, he turned to Wang Ye and inquired, “Did you fold this yourself?”
“Yes, 1 spent quite a while on it!” Wang Ye responded.
“So what if it took that long? Even if it takes a day, or even two or three, I would be satisfied if it can be folded like this!” Ye Sanshi’s words revealed his genuine delight.
Initially, when the company commander announced that there would be a competition the following week, Ye Sanshi didn’t have much confidence. As he stood outside the company commander’s door, he exuded only the demeanor of a soldier. However, now he had the urge to burst into laughter. What a talent! It was truly remarkable!
He couldn’t even fold the blanket this way.
Indeed, compared to the one Ye Sanshi had folded earlier, Wang Ye’s blanket was undoubtedly more aesthetically pleasing, resembling a cube of tofu. However, one shouldn’t overlook the fact that his blanket wasn’t new. It had already been compressed and tightly packed, enabling him to achieve such results.
…..
But Wang Ye’s blanket was brand new!
Even though it was still slightly puffy, when placed alongside Ye Sanshi’s blanket, it appeared taller and wider. Even a careful examination revealed that it wasn’t perfectly flat. Yet, didn’t this prove that it was a new blanket? To accomplish this in less than two days, Ye Sanshi was tempted to take the blanket and display it at the entrance of the dormitory building. He would gather the other class leaders and even the company commander to witness and challenge, “Is there anyone else?”
“Excellent! Very impressive!” Ye Sanshi stood up, reaching out to pat Wang Ye’s shoulder. The anger he had displayed when he woke up had completely vanished, and a smile emerged on his tanned face. Wang Ye returned the smile without saying a word, and Ye Sanshi didn’t mind. He stared into Wang Ye’s eyes once again and asked, “How did you fold it? Are you confident in your folding abilities?”
“Yes!” Wang Ye responded loudly.
In truth, Ye Sanshi was merely asking for the sake of conversation. If Wang Ye could fold it once, folding it a second time wouldn’t be an issue. He was just overly concerned about this matter. It wasn’t only a reflection of a soldier’s glory but also had implications for his marriage.
“Alright… Alright… Gather around! Those outside, fetch the recruits from the water room!” Ye Sanshi called out from the door. The recruits from other squads in the corridor looked up in surprise but none dared to approach and observe. After all, it wasn’t their class monitor speaking.
Soon, the entire class returned to the dormitory, and the door was closed. On the floor lay a blanket—it belonged to Qin Li. Seizing this opportunity, when Ye Sanshi asked Wang Ye if he could fold another blanket, Qin Li, without waiting for Wang Ye to respond, mustered up his courage and volunteered, “Use mine, use mine!”
Wang Ye squatted on the ground, pressing down on the blanket. Beside him, Ye Sanshi also squatted, looking around and speaking with a serious tone. “Pay close attention! Anyone who doesn’t watch carefully will face consequences!”
“Don’t worry, class monitor. I’ll do my best!” one recruit exclaimed.
“Yes, yes, yes! This blanket almost drove me crazy. 1’11 study hard and strive to fold it in one go!” another recruit chimed in.
One by one, the recruits hastily expressed their determination.
“Alright, be quiet now and watch attentively!” Ye Sanshi’s final sentence silenced the dormitory of Class Five. Of course, this silence was broken whenever Wang Ye offered instructions while under the blanket. Time passed slowly. This time, it took Wang Ye even longer to fold the blanket compared to before. This was because Qin Li’s blanket had looser cotton than Wang Ye’s, and he was not as skilled as Wang Ye in compressing it.
However, the result was satisfactory.
After about an hour, a tofu-like blanket, similar to the one on Wang Ye’s bed, took shape. Even though some faint marks remained on the blanket that couldn’t be entirely removed, it was due to Qin Li’s restless sleep the previous night. It couldn’t be remedied simply by pressing with hands or a stool. Other methods, like using hot water in a stainless steel cup, were required.
Nevertheless, it wasn’t a significant issue.
With the blanket folded and everyone still absorbed in Wang Ye’s teachings, Ye Sanshi took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart. He stood up, raised his hand, and once again patted Wang Ye’s shoulder.
“Well done, Wang Ye. I have made a decision. From now on, you will be the vice class monitor of Class Five.”
Wang Ye was momentarily taken aback, but he immediately saluted with a smile. “Yes, sir!” It was an unexpected pleasant surprise. He had anticipated waiting until the 12th, but now the term “deputy” was dropped!
“Does anyone object?” Ye Sanshi kept his hand on Wang Ye’s shoulder, looking around at the recruits.
“No!”
“Absolutely not. He’s incredible!”
“Wow! Tonight, I’ve decided to sleep without a blanket!” Qin Li exclaimed.
“Ah!” However, the next second, he let out a pained cry.
Ye Sanshi bent down and removed the blanket, leaving Qin Li clutching his head. Ye Sanshi scolded, “What were you thinking? Having Vice Class Monitor Wang fold your blanket was for instruction, not for you to slack off. You have to learn to fold it yourself.”
Ye Sanshi’s smile disappeared, replaced by seriousness. He glanced around the room and continued, “Fold your blankets in the dormitory, not outside. There isn’t enough space outside, so fold them on your beds!”
Ye Sanshi didn’t want anyone to discover their progress in folding the blankets. Tomorrow, he would surprise the other squad leaders and company commanders during the evaluation. He thought with satisfaction that the competition was in the bag.
He turned to Wang Ye, who was standing before him, feeling increasingly content with his choice for the vice class monitor.
However, at that moment, Wang Ye’s attention wasn’t on Ye Sanshi. He was examining his personal attributes page.
