The Commander's Useless Wife Is Actually a Hidden Boss!-Chapter 286: Enemies on a Narrow Road

The same scene was being played out in over a hundred hotels at that time.

Their discussions were more or less about the same topic.

That topic was Lin Fu.

However, the attitudes of different military academies varied. First Military Command College chose silence out of respect for Senior Fu Xing, but silence was also a form of silent contempt.

Feng Lin, Fengye, and Violet faction military academy students had the most disdainful attitudes.

Of course, they would certainly not say it out loud.

But the private conversations were inevitable, and no matter how unpleasant, no one else could intervene.

The fundamental reason was that they and Elbert were the biggest competitors with major conflicts, and since they hadn’t seen Lin Fu demonstrate any skills, they wouldn’t easily believe the rumors without seeing it for themselves.

Then there were the Seven Guardian Star Systems.

Their attitudes were elusive, as the grievances among the Seven Guardian Families were very complex, which in turn affected the relationships between the military academies.

However, during each freshman competition, the seven military academies would form tacit alliances.

As for the Immolus Star System military academy directly involved, countless media blocked the hotel entrance, asking them what they thought now that the Duchess was also competing, whether as a competitor or not.

The school spokesperson was so frustrated that his nose was askew.

What could they think?

It was already awkward enough, wishing no one would notice them, but now, everyone was watching them.

Finally, the spokesperson blatantly lied, "We don’t know."

...

The next day, Lin Fu, as team leader, along with Xu Jinglan, Ivan, Archer, Marville, and a blonde girl Lillian—six people in total—went together to attend the press conference and the draw ceremony.

Lin Fu was the team leader, and the other five were deputy team leaders.

From the school’s side, Joter along with three other teachers whom Lin Fu was not familiar with and the spokesperson represented them.

The group of ten had breakfast and then headed to the press center led by the staff.

After verifying their identities, they entered the spacious venue and took their seats before their respective name tags.

As soon as she sat down, Lin Fu couldn’t help but laugh.

To the left was the representative from First Military Academy, led by Qin Mo.

To the right was a representative from Royal Starship Academy, a young girl with a curvaceous figure, dignified demeanor, and stunning beauty. Lin Fu did not recognize the team leader, but the person had pink hair, an unmistakable mark of her identity.

Even if she wasn’t a Princess, she must be a Prince’s daughter.

Indeed, enemies often cross each other’s paths.

Lin Fu mused to herself.

"Hello, Lin Fu. We meet again," said Qin Mo as he approached Lin Fu and greeted her politely, "I wanted to get to know you back at the Star Port, but the situation didn’t allow it. By the way, I haven’t introduced myself properly! My name is Qin Mo, and I’m an old friend of Captain Mervin."

"Hello, Captain Qin Mo, you need no introduction; I’ve long heard of your esteemed reputation."

Lin Fu stood up, shook hands with Qin Mo, and they exchanged pleasantries.

"By the way, where’s Mervin?"

Lin Fu could swear that Qin Mo was doing this on purpose.

"He’s unlucky, missing out on a grand event that a military academy student can only attend once in their lifetime," Lin Fu said with regret.

"That’s really a pity, I’ve been looking forward to this moment!"

"I believe there will be opportunities in the future since our two schools have many in-depth collaborations."

"That’s true," Qin Mo replied warmly and elegantly, "Next year in the first half, there is a mutant beast hunting mission; we’ll be able to cooperate again then."
