Chapter 188: Chapter 188: So the Newcor Competition is Basically the Interstellar Olympics
Lin Fu woke up again to find it was already the afternoon of the next day, and the scene in front of her startled her so much she almost pulled the blanket over her head.
“Butler… Butler?”
“Good day, Lady.” The butler bowed respectfully, revealing a kindly smile, his tone brimming with joy.
“To see that the Lady has awakened safely brings great joy, thank heavens above.”
Lin Fu muttered to herself, wondering if people in the interstellar era were superstitious too?
“Thank you!” She gave the butler an embarrassed yet polite smile, having forgotten how long it had been since she had presented such a professional smile.
She had no choice at Duke Mansion, she wasn’t intimidated by Fu Xing, the male master of the house, but she was indeed terrified of the butler.
It wasn’t fear, but rather the kind of respect and fear that a schoolchild has for their teacher.
She couldn’t quite understand why that was the case.
After all, she faced the head of Land War Academy without the slightest hint of stage fright.
“Why are you here? It takes half a month to travel here from the Capital Star.” Lin Fu wiped the nonexistent sweat from her brow, wanting to ask if it wasn’t too much trouble for him to co such a long way.
“If the Lady is ill, of course, I must visit you! Taking care of your daily life and wellbeing, as the most loyal servant of the Fu Family, how could I leave the mistress alone in the hospital without anyone to look after her?” the butler said as a matter of course.
“Uh… isn’t this a bit inappropriate? I’m enrolled in Military Academy, ant to undergo the Empire’s most stringent training, to beco a qualified soldier in the future.”
Lin Fu really wanted to ask if Fu Xing knew about such attentive care on his behalf.
“Why would it be inappropriate? Had I known earlier about the unfortunate situation with the Lady, I should have co sooner,” the butler said, appearing very thoughtful and playfully winking at Lin Fu.
“Please rest assured, Lady. Although Mr. Major General had previously concealed the nature of your injuries from us, preventing us from providing you with imdiate care, this ti he has personally inford the mansion.”
“Are you saying it was Fu Xing who told you to co?” She was sowhat incredulous.
“Of course.”
Lin Fu fell silent, her expression complex as she appeared to be deep in thought.
“Moreover, the freshn competition is in three months, and our Lady must have her own grandeur, just as others do.”
“Grandeur?” Lin Fu thought she had heard wrong.
“Yes! The freshn competition is a highly anticipated event by the public, with all participating academies and individuals having supporters and sponsors. Many have already started live streaming, interviews, and pre-event hype.”
The butler spoke with a hint of regret, “Yet our Lady has been subjected to criticism without any supporters; this must be redied! The Lady must be properly represented on the Star Network.”
“??? ???? ????”
Lin Fu was puzzled and decided to boot up her Light Computer to look up information on the spot.
The more she read, the greater her headache grew.
But the more she read, the more energized she beca.
She now understood that the Military Academy’s freshn competition was sowhat like the Olympics back on Earth, only with a higher-end nature and more intense competition.
However, dia hype, reporter interviews, Star Network live streams, magazine covers, public voting, and popularity PKs were all prevalent.
And the dals won in the competition were similar to Olympic dals,
all representing honor.
For those participating in the freshn competition, there were exclusive follow-up reports and popularity forecasts. Even though the various Military Academies had yet to announce their contestants, the hype on Star Network had already skyrocketed.
In the top ten popular War Generals, Elbert was the only one nominated, but rvin’s popularity, as well as Nolan and Celia’s, was not lagging far behind.
