Arsenal Military Academy Episode 19 Recap
> Arsenal Military Academy Recap
Huo Xiaoyu readily agreed to help Cheng Rui Beile rob the batch of national treasures lost from Yuanmingyuan, she just didn't understand why he was so particularly concerned about these treasures. Cheng Rui Beile dodged the question, and Huo Xiaoyu no longer pursued it. She clearly stated to his face that if this business was delayed because of his secret, the deposit he paid would not be refunded one bit. The two immediately hit it off.
In fact, what Cheng Rui Beile cared about most was that the batch of goods contained the Emperor's golden seal. His master would retrieve it at all costs. At night, Xie Xiang hid in the bathroom, just about to wash her face and brush her teeth, when Li Wenzhong suddenly opened the door with a key and came in. Xie Xiang mistakenly thought it was Gu Yanzhen returning to school, and quickly opened the bathroom door.
Unexpectedly, it was Li Wenzhong who came in. Li Wenzhong claimed that Gu Yanzhen would not be returning, and Instructor Lv Zhongxin had agreed for him to move into Gu Yanzhen's bed. Xie Xiang didn't want to live with him and slammed the door shut in a fit of pique. Xie Xiang came to find Instructor Lv Zhongxin that night, but his room was locked. Xie Xiang had no choice but to sit outside and wait all night.
Early the next morning, the cadets were fully armed for a drill. Xie Xiang, due to a sleepless night and catching a cold, had a high fever and was weak all over. Huang Song showed concern for her well-being. Although Xie Xiang was at the back of the line, she still persevered. As soon as she reached the destination, she collapsed from exhaustion. Guo Shuting sent someone to take Xie Xiang to the infirmary, but the doctor was not there.
Guo Shuting wanted to lower Xie Xiang's temperature and accidentally discovered her female identity. Guo Shuting was stunned and speechless, but still helped her conceal the matter. Xie Xiang finally woke up. Guo Shuting inquired about her family situation and her original intention for applying to Arsenal Military Academy. Xie Xiang tried her best to conceal it.
Guo Shuting thought her physical fitness was too poor and she was completely unsuitable for being a soldier, but Xie Xiang was not convinced and wanted to strive for qualification through her own efforts. Guo Shuting specifically approved her to not participate in training today. Xie Xiang returned to the dormitory and saw Li Wenzhong rummaging through her locker. Xie Xiang quickly stopped him, but he was indifferent, lying that he had lost something and was looking for it.
Xie Xiang was made to lose her appetite by Li Wenzhong. Huang Song advised her to find an instructor to change dormitories. Ji Jin unintentionally said that there was a girl mixed into the military academy. Xie Xiang had just taken a sip of water and immediately spit it out nervously. Ji Jin, Shen Junshan, and Huang Song were all greatly perplexed. Ji Jin repeatedly stated that someone was a girl disguised as a man.
Huang Song and Ji Jin both felt that they had never bathed with Xie Xiang. Xie Xiang quickly asked Shen Junshan to testify for her. Shen Junshan admitted that he had bathed with Xie Xiang, and Gu Yanzhen was also there. Late at night, Gu Yanzhen wanted to escape by jumping out of the window, but unexpectedly, he was caught red-handed by the butler. He had no choice but to return to his room the way he came.
Huang Song excitedly brought the day's newspaper early in the morning. It published the news of Gu Yanzhen's engagement to Miss Dong, the daughter of General Dong. Xie Xiang was very impatient. Qu Manting was confined at home. She had no choice but to hide in her room listening to records and singing opera, and they were all tragic operas. Qu Huaishu only then relaxed his guard and ordered those responsible for watching her to withdraw.
Seeing this, Qu Manting quickly used the sheet she had prepared beforehand to climb down from the window. Qu Manting quickly went to the train station to buy a ticket to Nanjing, but the tickets for the next three days were all sold out. Qu Manting had no choice but to leave glumly. Shen Tingbai had been following Qu Manting all along.
He sent someone to buy a ticket to Nanjing and give it to Qu Manting, and also instructed people in Nanjing to protect Qu Manting at all times. Li Wenzhong deliberately used the news of Gu Yanzhen's engagement to provoke Xie Xiang. Xie Xiang was so angry she gritted her teeth and proactively suggested sparring with Li Wenzhong. Instructor Lv Zhongxin readily agreed to their fight.
Xie Xiang turned all her anger into martial arts, beating Li Wenzhong until he repeatedly begged for mercy. Qu Manting successfully boarded the train to Nanjing. She was quickly recognized by the students in the same carriage. Qu Manting learned that the students were going to Nanjing to petition against the government signing the Twenty-One Demands with Japan.
The students believed that Qu Manting was going to Nanjing to "snatch the groom" and fully supported her efforts to get Gu Yanzhen back, even shouting slogans to cheer her on. Qu Manting was very touched. Gu Yanzhen refused to accept the engagement. The butler kindly tried to persuade him, advising him to meet Miss Dong tomorrow and explaining the advantages and disadvantages to him. Gu Yanzhen was very impatient.
Just then, the servant at home called Gu Yanzhen and told him the news of Qu Manting's arrival in Nanjing. Gu Yanzhen immediately had a flash of inspiration and came up with a good idea. Huo Xiaoyu laid out the plan to rob the national treasures to her subordinates. Everyone split up to prepare. Gu Yanzhen found out Qu Manting's arrival time and came to the station early to wait for her. The students escorted her off the train.
Gu Yanzhen came to meet her, holding a large bouquet of roses. The two embraced affectionately, and the students all applauded to congratulate them. Gu Yanzhen immediately brought Qu Manting to meet Miss Dong, and deliberately showed concern for Qu Manting in front of Miss Dong. Miss Dong was very jealous. She boasted about her strict family upbringing and spoke coldly to Qu Manting, also mocking her for being tainted by the air of dance halls.
Qu Manting didn't show weakness either, wanting to take Gu Yanzhen to a bar to catch up properly. Neither person backed down, and they argued until their faces were red. Just then, fans came to ask Qu Manting for her autograph. Qu Manting readily agreed. Miss Dong was not convinced and continued to insinuate and mock Qu Manting. Qu Manting and she engaged in a battle of wits.
