However, by the time he noticed that Flossie Wright and Janice Wood were engaged in a sparring exercise, about ten minutes had already passed.
Subconsciously halting his steps, Nathan Foster’s gaze rested on the duo for a moment, and a trace of surprise passed fleetingly across his eyes.
Since finding out that Rowdy Brightwill might have feelings for Flossie Wright, the usually obtuse Nathan Foster had finally had an epiphany. He had actively sought out Flossie’s platoon leader in the recruit company, Drake Easton, to ask about Flossie’s situation when she was in the recruit company. Although letting her slack off seemed impossible, it was indeed feasible to give some leeway to his brother.
However, based on what he learned from Drake Easton, apart from her inexplicable gun skills, Flossie’s other abilities were incredibly poor, such as physical fitness, combat, and more, Which would be hard to improve in a short time.
Yet, now Flossie and Janice could easily spar with each other. Although both were holding back, Janice was personally trained by Nathan Foster, so he understood her capabilities well. A "poor" person would not be able to last more than ten moves against Janice, a fact that was hard to ignore.
After a while, Nathan Foster, who held a bit of curiosity in his heart, proactively approached Flossie and Janice.
"Good day, Instructor!"
Janice was the first to notice his arrival, immediately paused her sparring with Flossie, and greeted Nathan Foster respectfully.
"Are you keeping up with the progress?"
His gaze circled the pair, and Nathan Foster settled his eyes on Flossie. He, who usually wore a stern face, surprisingly revealed a slightly amicable expression.
Flossie raised an eyebrow and stared at him strangely for a moment, then softly nodded, "Doing alright."
Ordinary instructors paying attention to new students was quite common. But when it involves Nathan Foster, it became exceptionally unbelievable.
The last time Flossie shot in the heavy rain, it was obviously to embarrass him and made him lose face in public, and his anger was clearly seen by everyone at that time. Later, some recruits caused a commotion in the cafeteria because of this incident, resulting in Nathan Foster having to personally apologize to the cooking class...
Logically speaking, they should be considered enemies.
Moreover, Nathan Foster was the type who would not bother about such matters, his mood was always irritable and fiery. Any mistakes made by the students would be criticized by him, even if you were dead tired, you could only die on the training ground. This kind of caring greeting he is doing now...
Was simply shocking.
Nathan Foster seemed oblivious to any unusual behavior. He scrutinized Flossie from top to bottom before asking again, "How did the training for the Falling Skill go today?"
Meanwhile, Janice, who was initially surprised, gradually pulled herself together. She mustered her courage, and helped to answer, "Reporting to the instructor, we haven’t started practicing yet!"
Thinking of Janice’s past seriousness and diligence, Nathan Foster slightly pondered and did not say much, "Carry on training!"
"Yes, sir!"
Janice promptly replied.
However, as he walked off, Janice couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
After hesitating for a moment, Janice carefully turned to Flossie and asked, "Flossie, has Instructor Foster... taken a fancy to you?"
Even though people can change, Nathan Foster’s transformation was quite extensive. Furthermore, his change in attitude only applied to Flossie. He never greeted the others who were half-dead from exhaustion, it was evident that he showed favoritism towards Flossie.
You could even see this peculiarity from Janice who was rather indifferent to emotions, hence, the likelihood was greatly increased.
