Chapter 90

Qingyuan water is not ordinary water. It was brewed by Lin Fan using a recipe from the cultivation world, not only with unique effects but also an unparalleled taste.

As soon as the Qingyuan water entered their throats, everyone felt that their originally burning, almost smoking throats instantly became cool and refreshed. The Qingyuan water soothed their throats, and a refreshing aroma continuously teased their taste buds. After drinking it, they felt their entire bodies become much more refreshed, even the sore muscles in their limbs felt much better.

The first feeling was a refreshing coolness, making their spirits soar.

The second feeling was the relief from fatigue, making their bodies feel comfortable.

As they drank more, everyone became more enthusiastic. Ah Bao even crushed the bottle to drink the Qingyuan water faster.

After finishing, many people smacked their lips, still wanting more. They even tilted their heads to drink the last bit of residue at the bottom of the bottle.

Hero reluctantly put down the empty bottle, swallowed, and asked curiously, "Instructor, what kind of water is this?"

Lin Fan said, "This is the Qingyuan water I specially brewed for you, to help your bodies adapt to high-intensity training. In short, no matter how you train, as long as you drink a bottle of Qingyuan water, you will quickly recover, with no need to worry."

"Is that so? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe such a miraculous thing exists in the world. Isn't this like the Senzu Beans in 'Dragon Ball'? Even if you're on the brink of death, one Senzu Bean will make you lively and energetic again."

Ah Bao looked at the crumpled bottle in his hand and muttered.

"Haha, Ah Bao is right. With Senzu Beans, we don't have to worry about not being able to quickly improve our strength!"

Hero laughed.

Lin Fan clapped his hands and said, "After drinking the Qingyuan water, rest for five minutes, and then start the next set!"

"Yes!"

With such a miraculous thing as Qingyuan water, the special forces members had no more reservations and enthusiastically shouted.

Sure enough, after five minutes, everyone not only felt no fatigue but also seemed to have gained strength like Popeye after eating spinach. Ah Bao even patted his chest and said he could now kill a cow.

Seeing the time, Lin Fan gave the order, and the special forces members ended their rest and started doing push-ups again, still a thousand. This time, there was a noticeable improvement, both in speed and the maximum number of repetitions.

In the morning, the special forces members completed five sets of push-ups. The first two sets were a thousand each, and the last three sets were two thousand each. The rate of improvement was astonishing.

Gu Chengyuan, seeing the exaggerated progress of the special forces members, couldn't stop smiling, his face full of wrinkles.

At noon, at the special forces members' enthusiastic invitation, Lin Fan and Gu Chengyuan had lunch at the special forces base canteen.

Lin Fan held Qiqi and sat at the same table with Gu Chengyuan, Yang Song, Hero, Ah Bao, and the team leaders of B and C teams, Dahu and Gangzi. The special forces' meals were already very good, and today the canteen had added extra dishes, making the meal quite sumptuous.

Yang Song raised a disposable paper cup and said to Lin Fan, "Instructor, we have discipline and can't drink alcohol in the base, so I'll toast you with tea."

Lin Fan was feeding Qiqi and, upon hearing this, put down his chopsticks, picked up his disposable paper cup, and clinked it with Yang Song's, saying, "No need to be formal."

After that, both of them took a sip.

Gu Chengyuan said, "Don't just stand there. Come, let's all toast to Instructor Lin and thank him for his contribution to our Feilong Special Forces!"

Saying this, Gu Chengyuan stood up with a disposable paper cup. As soon as he stood up, not only Yang Song and Hero at the same table but also the special forces members at the neighboring tables stood up with their disposable paper cups and said in unison, "To the instructor!"

The enthusiasm of the special forces members made Lin Fan a bit embarrassed. He put Qiqi on the chair next to him, stood up, and raised his paper cup, saying, "Thank you all."

As he spoke, everyone took a sip from their paper cups.

Qiqi tilted her head, but the people around her were all taller, blocking her view. She tugged at Lin Fan's clothes and said in a baby voice, "Daddy, daddy, I want to toast too."

"Haha."

Lin Fan laughed, picked up Qiqi with one hand, and brought the paper cup to her mouth.

Qiqi held the cup with both hands and drank elegantly, but because Lin Fan was clumsy, some of the water spilled from the side of her mouth and dripped onto her neck.

Qiqi blinked her big eyes and said in a clear voice, "Daddy."

Lin Fan looked down at Qiqi and smiled, "What's wrong, Qiqi?"

Qiqi tilted her head and pointed to the water flowing down her neck, saying, "Water, it's flowing out. If we don't do something, it will flow onto Qiqi's tummy."

"Ah?" Lin Fan realized and quickly put the paper cup on the table, picked up a napkin, and wiped the water from Qiqi's mouth and neck. When he reached her neck, Qiqi giggled, wriggling her little body.

"Ha ha ha..."

Seeing this, the surrounding special forces members laughed. They never expected that this formidable instructor would be just like an ordinary young father in front of his daughter, a loving dad and a doting father.

This made everyone feel much closer to Lin Fan, finding him less intimidating and more approachable.

After everyone sat down, Hero hesitated for a long time, then stood up, raised his paper cup with both hands, and said, "Instructor, I had a misunderstanding about you and was disrespectful. Please don't take it to heart. I apologize to you here."

After saying this, Hero tilted his head and finished the water in the paper cup in one gulp.

Lin Fan looked at Hero curiously and said, "You mentioning this, I do have a feeling. We've never met before, so why did you have an inexplicable hostility towards me?"

Hero scratched the back of his head, a bit embarrassed, and said, "Yingzi is my sister... Yesterday she said someone bullied her, and the person who bullied her was the special consultant about to join our police force... After the training, I called her and found out it was a misunderstanding... She's just a kid with a temper..."

Hearing Hero's words, the A team members felt a bit awkward, as they had all been indignant and wanted to take revenge on Lin Fan.

"Uh..." Lin Fan instantly thought of the big-chested, brainless, and overly righteous little policewoman he met yesterday. He turned to Gu Chengyuan and smiled, "Brother Gu, you really kept it from me."

Gu Chengyuan laughed and said, "As the saying goes, no fight, no acquaintance. Such a way of meeting is not a bad story."
