After the training was completed, the cadets from each row followed their instructors back to the mess hall in an orderly sequence.
Each class had one dining table; the class monitors went to the food distribution window to collect the meals and came back to divide the dishes among their classmates.
Zhong Xing and Gu Jiajia were punished and not allowed to eat. Since Zhong Xing, as the class monitor, could not collect the food, the student standing behind him took his place.
After an afternoon of training, they were both hungry and tired.
After the class monitors had collected the meals and returned, the students looked at each other, asking with their eyes, "Are Zhong Xing and Jiajia really not allowed to have dinner?"
Perhaps knowing that training consumes a lot of energy, the food provided at each table was very abundant.
They could empathize, feeling hungry and tired themselves. If Zhong Xing and Gu Jiajia were not allowed to have dinner, wouldn't they starve?
