"Go next door, Austin Shepherd wants to see you."
As he spoke, Lin, the squad leader, pointed casually to the adjacent male soldier dormitory, indicating to them that Austin Shepherd was waiting next door.
His overall demeanor appeared perfectly normal. According to Becca Reyes and Flossie Wright’s understanding of him, the issue wouldn’t be heading in a "bad" direction.
Well, otherwise, he’d have already been hurling expletives ...
"Austin Shepherd?"
Becca Reyes furrowed her brows in confusion, apparently unsure of his intentions.
Of course she knew about Austin Shepherd, who had led them when they first joined the cooking class. He was a handsome man with a dazzling presence everywhere he went. More importantly, Yvonne Watson seemed quite fond of him. Whenever he came to the cooking class, Yvonne’s unique demeanor was clearly visible to everyone.
She had interacted with Austin Shepherd several times, especially during the last New Year’s Eve rehearsal. This high-achiever with knowledge in numerous fields, including military equipment, seemed quite interested in group entertainment projects. He effortlessly handled everything, from various instruments to back-end control equipment. These activities used to be coordinated by him and Rowdy Brightwill, but with Rowdy Brightwill gone, most of the responsibilities had fallen on him.
Not only was he attractive, but he was also extremely talented and, most importantly, unattached. Almost all the women on base were green with envy when they saw him, and there was no shortage of those trying to curry favor with him. If it weren’t for their hectic schedules at the base, they’d probably be surrounded by bright-eyed young girls all day long.
Flossie Wright pondered for a moment, she could roughly guess why Austin Shepherd was looking for them.
Earlier today on the plane, Commander Glenn Hutchinson had mentioned Austin Shepherd...
If her guess was correct, it should be about the upcoming training plan.
"Let’s go check it out."
Becca Reyes shrugged at Flossie Wright and strode toward the dormitory next door.
Normally, male and female soldiers shouldn’t casually visit each other’s dorms, but their cooking class was an exception. There were always some special cases. In the past, when they held meetings, they would choose the courtyard on nice days, but on bad days, the male dormitory became their gathering spot. They’d sit around a mat, listening to the squad leader’s brief report. If the squad leader wasn’t upset with their performance that week, it meant they could have a late-night snack together, making life quite enjoyable.
As expected, when they returned to the male dormitory, they saw Yvonne Watson bustling around. The male cooks had all tactfully disappeared into the dormitory. Aside from Yvonne Watson, only Austin Shepherd and the oblivious Neal Thompson remained.
Apart from Yvonne Watson, who was busy serving tea, it was Austin Shepherd and Neal Thompson who were engaged in conversation.
"You two are back."
Austin Shepherd stood up as soon as he saw them enter the room. He was smiling cheerfully, and when he saw Lin, the squad leader behind them, he even made a slight nod in acknowledgement.
"Why do you need us so late at night, Shepherd?"
Becca Reyes raised her eyebrows at him quite teasingly.
However, just as she finished speaking, Squad Leader Lin, who was right behind her, gave her a warning look. Left with no other choice, Becca Reyes abandoned her playful teasing, and cast a serious glance at Austin Shepherd.
