Arsenal Military Academy Episode 31 Recap
> Arsenal Military Academy Recap
Qu Manting gathered the students from Chen Qianqian's Poetry Society together. They worked day and night to sort through the poems, while Xiao Tao served tea and water on the side. Qu Manting wanted to publish the poetry collection as soon as possible, hoping to use this opportunity to make a comeback. Xiao Tao brought the day's newspaper, which reported the signing of the Twenty-One Demands between China and Japan. Qu Manting was so angry that she stormed out.
Xie Xiang went to the hospital to visit Shen Junshan, but he had already been discharged. Xie Xiang walked down the street and saw students marching and demonstrating against the Twenty-One Demands, shouting "Down with Gu Zongtang." Xie Xiang couldn't help but worry about Gu Yanzhen. At the same time, Qu Manting also came to the military academy to find Gu Yanzhen, but he wasn't there.
Xie Xiang returned to the Arsenal Military Academy, and the cadets rushed into the dormitory, turning Gu Yanzhen's bed upside down. They also cursed him as a traitor. Xie Xiang tried desperately to stop them, but they wouldn't listen. They threw all of Gu Yanzhen's bedding and luggage onto the playground, threatening to burn it all. The cadets were in a frenzy, shouting slogans together: "Down with the traitor! Down with Gu Zongtang!"
Just as the cadets poured gasoline on the luggage, Xie Xiang rushed to stop them, but they refused to back down. In a fit of pique, Xie Xiang lay down on Gu Yanzhen's luggage, and she was doused in gasoline. Li Wenzhong, holding a lighter, threatened to burn Xie Xiang to death. At this critical moment, Gu Yanzhen arrived in time, knocking the troublemaking cadets to the ground.
The cadets left one after another, and Li Wenzhong had no choice but to return to the dormitory. Gu Yanzhen returned to the dormitory, complaining that Xie Xiang was too impulsive. Xie Xiang said that she was trying to retrieve the only photo of Gu Yanzhen and his mother. Gu Yanzhen hugged Xie Xiang tightly and confessed his feelings to her, saying that no one could stop their love.
Shen Tingbai brought his mother back and advised Shen Junshan not to be too impulsive, otherwise everything would be destroyed. Shen Tingbai learned that Oda Hiroshi had found a doctor to save Shen Junshan, and that Oda Hiroshi Hideyuki had been killed that very night. The Japanese Chamber of Commerce hastily cremated him without even holding a funeral. The Japanese garrison headquarters had not received any news.
It was not until Oda Hiroshi Hideyuki's ashes were sent back to Japan that they received the news. Shen Tingbai concluded that Oda Hiroshi had killed Oda Hiroshi Hideyuki, and he advised Shen Junshan not to get too close to Oda Hiroshi. Shen Tingbai learned that Xie Xiang had risked her life to save Shen Junshan and wanted to invite her to his home for dinner to express his gratitude. Shen Junshan readily agreed.
Huang Song returned to the military academy and learned about the farce that had taken place today. He couldn't help but sigh at Gu Yanzhen's situation, who had instantly gone from being a golden boy to the target of everyone's criticism. Xie Xiang desperately protected Gu Yanzhen, and Huang Song noticed that they were very close, teasing them about their relationship. Xie Xiang quickly changed the subject.
He found that Huang Song was in a great mood today, and casually asked about the matter from a few days ago. Huang Song claimed that it had been resolved satisfactorily. Xie Xiang originally wanted to borrow money to help Huang Song, but she didn't expect him to raise a large sum of money in such a short period of time. Xie Xiang suddenly noticed that Huang Song had a wound on his face and couldn't help but show concern.
Huang Song made an excuse to get by, and Xie Xiang didn't press him further. In fact, Huang Song was fighting in underground boxing matches to save his younger brother from prison. The next morning, Xie Xiang woke up and found a note on her bedside table, which was Gu Yanzhen reminding her to drink more hot water, and a message that said "Your loving Yanzhen." Xie Xiang was so startled that she quickly threw away the note.
She went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face and saw that the toothpaste had already been squeezed out, and there was a loving note under the teacup. Xie Xiang went to put on her leather boots and found that Gu Yanzhen had already polished them. This time, the note was even more outrageous, directly signing as Xie Xiang's husband. Xie Xiang angrily tore the note to shreds.
She came to the cafeteria to eat and found that Gu Yanzhen had already gotten her food and was enthusiastically inviting Xie Xiang to sit next to him. Huang Song earnestly advised her from the side, and Xie Xiang finally sat down to eat. Gu Yanzhen tried every means to please her, peeling an egg for her and personally feeding it to her mouth. Xie Xiang was very embarrassed. The classmates all stopped eating and looked at them.
Xie Xiang swallowed the egg in one gulp and choked, coughing uncontrollably. Gu Yanzhen quickly brought her a glass of water and fed it to her. Ji Jin and Zhu Yanlin, who were sitting there, were stunned. During class, Gu Yanzhen continued to pester Xie Xiang, and Guo Shuting kicked him out. Gu Yanzhen made faces at Xie Xiang through the crack in the door and flirted with her. Xie Xiang felt very uncomfortable, but Gu Yanzhen enjoyed it.
Xie Xiang angrily threw a book at him, and Guo Shuting kicked her out as well. Gu Yanzhen took the opportunity to approach Xie Xiang and was severely reprimanded by her. Qu Manting saw the abuse and ridicule of Gu Yanzhen in the newspaper, and she was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. She rushed to the newspaper office to make a scene.
Xiao Tao tried desperately to stop her and advised her kindly, but she insisted on going her own way. Shen Tingbai arrived in time and laughed at Qu Manting for being a hooligan. Shen Tingbai remembered that when his family was down on their luck when he was a child, he was ridiculed by his classmates, and Qu Manting was the one who stood up for him. From that time on, Shen Tingbai had a soft spot for Qu Manting.
Qu Manting pretended not to remember, and Shen Tingbai repeatedly confirmed whether Qu Manting really loved Gu Yanzhen. He promised that he could cancel the engagement with both sets of parents to help Qu Manting and Gu Yanzhen. Qu Manting told him to keep his word, and that she was determined to get Gu Yanzhen. Shen Tingbai's heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Gu Yanzhen followed Xie Xiang every step of the way, trying every means to please her, but Xie Xiang ignored him. Xie Xiang accidentally found Huang Song limping back to the military academy and quickly went over to press him for the reason. Huang Song made the excuse that he had fallen, but Xie Xiang didn't believe it at all.
Director Sheng was explaining the scene to Yuan Pingting, but Qu Manting appeared, and Director Sheng immediately greeted her with a smile, leaving Yuan Pingting aside. Qu Manting started filming. In the scene, the character played by Qu Manting threw money at Yuan Pingting, who took the opportunity to throw a glass of water on her. The director immediately called to stop the scene, demanding that she act according to the script.
After Qu Manting's makeup was touched up, they did it again. This time, Yuan Pingting threw water again. On the third take, Qu Manting directly slapped Yuan in the face, telling her to be careful of what she said and did. The director chimed in, saying that she acted too well. Director Sheng sent Qu Manting out and agreed that Qu Manting would play the leading role in his next film.
On the other side, Yuan Pingting vented her anger on the servants. Qu Manting took a car to find Gu Yanzhen. The people at the military academy were playing cards in Xie Xiang's room and discussing Gu Yanzhen and Shen Junshan. At this moment, Gu Yanzhen's piano music rang out outside the school. Gu Yanzhen was in the middle of the square, elegantly playing the piano with heart-shaped roses arranged around him. Everyone started to tease Gu Yanzhen, and Gu Yanzhen said that this song was dedicated to Xie Xiang.
