"What kind of interview?"
Lin Yi slightly frowned.
Could his identity have been exposed?
"Here’s the thing. Today, we want to interview the special forces and would like to invite you to have a competition with them."
Lin Yi smacked his lips. Did they really recognize him?
Are they trying to make an example out of him?
Set a benchmark for them?
It seems that’s the only explanation.
"Alright then, how should we compete?"
"Come on, follow me first."
Lin Yi, along with Little Lin Cheng, went to the front of the team.
"Sir, may I interview you? What do you do?"
"I’m a full-time dad at home."
Zheng Tingting nodded with a smile; the situation was just as she thought.
He must be a resident of the compound; because he’s handsome, he became a stay-at-home son-in-law. After having a kid, he started staying home full-time to take care of the child.
"Actually, our competition is quite simple."
Zheng Tingting walked over to two gigantic round logs.
"They use these two logs during training. We want to invite you to try lifting them to experience their life."
The ordinary soldiers standing behind had a smile on their faces.
During regular training, it usually takes two people to carry one log during a weighted run.
Now asking him to try it alone, that’s definitely not possible. Even for us who train daily, lifting it is just manageable.
"Got it."
Lin Yi put Little Lin Cheng to the side.
Walking to the two logs, Lin Yi effortlessly shouldered them with a gentle sweep of his hand.
"Do I need to run a lap?"
Hiss—
Everyone witnessing this scene gasped, completely dumbfounded.
"Did he lift them by himself?"
However, Zheng Tingting didn’t think much of it.
She instinctively believed that if a homemaker like Lin Yi could easily lift two logs, it should be no problem for others.
"No need to run; we’ll conduct the running competition later. You can put the logs down for now."
Zheng Tingting looked towards Captain Gao.
"Captain Gao, let’s have our soldiers give these logs a try. It would be best to bring two more."
"Hmm? Two more?"
"Since he can easily lift two, I think it shouldn’t be a problem for our soldiers to lift four."
Gao Wenqiang’s face twitched; he felt troubled.
This is someone who freely interacts with Elder Lu. Do you really think we can compete with him?
"I think we should just forget about it. Let’s keep to our own training, and you just conduct your interviews."
"It’s mainly through comparison that we can better showcase your prowess."
Gao Wenqiang’s expression darkened even further.
Pointing to the two logs, he said:
"Each log weighs 120 kilograms. Our people can barely lift one. Don’t you think four logs are a bit excessive?"
"What? 120 kilograms each?"
Zheng Tingting and the others were stunned, instinctively looking at Lin Yi.
"But, but he’s just a stay-at-home dad. How did he do it?"
"He’s not your ordinary person; you picked the wrong guy." Gao Wenqiang said:
"You should consider, anyone appearing in this compound couldn’t possibly be ordinary."
"Ah... this..."
Zheng Tingting was embarrassed, momentarily at a loss for words.
Originally, they intended to use him as a foil to highlight the interview.
