Dressed as a peasant girl, full of happiness

Chapter 394 This is a secret

After Ji Huaian finished speaking lightly, the soldiers all shuddered. The more lightly their company commander spoke, the more serious the consequences would be.

Rather than offend this eccentric company commander, they would rather offend the open-minded and tolerant instructor.

"Captain, we will definitely listen to you!"

"If you want to listen to me, tell me what you know!"

"Okay, Captain, let me tell you..."

So everyone reported to Ji Huaian:

"Captain, you took part in the military skills assessment a few days ago. I heard that you defeated the top soldier and became the top new soldier. You also won the decathlon championship! Our instructor Lu said that the military will give you a large bonus. Some soldiers said that for this bonus, it is worth marrying a wife like you."

"What? If there's no bonus, then I'm not worthy of marrying?" Ji Huaian was not angry, but instead made fun of himself.

"How could that be? They say that just out of envy, jealousy and hatred. In fact, they can't even reach you." The scholars quickly flattered Ji Huaian.

"Is that all?" Ji Huaian asked doubtfully. She couldn't believe that others looked at her in such a strange way just because of a bonus. There must be other deeper reasons.

"Well, Captain, you are so strong that some soldiers said they became autistic because of your comparison."

"Hahaha, that's how low your self-esteem must be. You'll become withdrawn when compared to others! Okay, stop lying to me. Do you think I'm that easy to fool?"

As Wei Yuchen spoke, he looked around and found that the platoon leader Zhang Zhao was relatively close to him, so he said to Zhang Zhao∴

"Zhang Zhao, tell me, why are you looking at me so strangely?"

"Me? Well, I heard that Deputy Colonel Lu wants to give himself to you as a gift to congratulate you." Zhang Zhao saw that he could not hide it anymore, so he betrayed their acting instructor, Deputy Colonel Lu.

After saying that, he quickly hid behind the crowd. Although Deputy Captain Lu would find out sooner or later that he was the one who betrayed him, he still wanted to hide a little longer. Maybe Deputy Captain Lu would forget about it, Zhang Zhao thought to himself.

Ji Huaian looked up at Lu Yu who was giving instructions to other soldiers not far away, and thought to himself:

"No wonder he kept silent when I asked him just now. It turns out that this guy is actually doing something behind my back. I will definitely teach him a lesson when I get the chance in the future!"

Thinking of this, she seemed to have seen Lu Yu begging for mercy loudly at her feet, and the corners of her mouth could not help but rise slightly, revealing a sly smile.

But this smile was short-lived. She immediately turned stern and said loudly:

"Coach Lu was just joking, but you guys believed it. Look at your IQ, it's really worrying!"

At this time, a soldier spoke up:

"Captain, we all sincerely hope that all this is true! As a woman, you are so strong, how can an ordinary man have the courage to marry you? If Deputy Commander Lu really confesses his love to you, you must happily agree to him!"

Then, another soldier echoed:

"Yes, Captain, you are so amazing that even we old men are ashamed of ourselves. If someone wants to marry you, you should marry him/her quickly. We think this for your own good."

Ji Huaian did not show much emotion when she heard this, but she felt relieved in her heart:

So that’s all. I thought someone had discovered the secret in my heart.

Since it was confirmed that it was no big deal, Ji Huaian shrugged indifferently, walked aside to drink a glass of water, and lectured them:

"When you have time, think more about your results. Don't worry about it all the time. Use your energy where it counts and work hard to improve your training results. Getting a good score in the skill assessment is the most important thing."

After spending some time together, the soldiers no longer kept their distance from Ji Huaian as they did at the beginning, and would often joke around with him. So a fearless soldier asked, "Captain, do you really not have a crush on someone?"

"Yes!" Ji Huaian pondered for a moment and decided to seek truth from facts.

"Who is it? Is it our Deputy Colonel Lu?" the soldier asked.

"It's a secret." Ji Huaian replied with a smile.

"Is this our Deputy Regimental Officer Lu?" asked another soldier.

"It's a secret." Still the same answer.

"Captain, you really don't care at all?" Zhang Zhao took a tentative step forward and asked tentatively.

Seeing that everyone was so concerned about his personal problems, Ji Huaian decided to explain everything to everyone.

She put her hands behind her back and dodged back and forth in front of the soldiers for a few steps. Finally, she walked in front of everyone and asked seriously:

"You expect me to care?"

She thought that these young boys would shake their heads, but they just nodded repeatedly and made "hmm" sounds.

Ji Huaian said the word "stop" twice in disdain before he stopped the group of obviously excited recruits and scolded them:

"Look at you guys, you are so short-sighted. You care so much about a little bit of honor? And you expect me to care! You don't expect me to beat drums and hold banners, do you?"

Ji Huaian deliberately joked with them, and everyone shook their heads.

Zhang Zhao shouted, "Captain, you are being cunning. You clearly know that this is not what we are talking about. You are trying to change the concept."

Several other brave soldiers also echoed: "Captain, you are changing the concept."

Ji Huaian tightened his face and said seriously: "Don't think too much, let's start training as soon as possible!"

Everyone looked at her and finally realized that she really didn't care, and they were a little discouraged. They thought the company commander and the acting instructor would write a pure military love story together, but this is it? Boring!

At the end of the training, when Ji Huaian passed by Lu Yu, he whispered, "Wait for me for a moment, I have something to ask you."

Lu Yu nodded and slowed down.

In the evening, as the sun set, Geng Changshuo bathed in the afterglow of the sunset and slowly returned home.

When he saw Liu Chunmei sitting in her home, he immediately knew that Political Commissar Xu had woken up, so he quickly took off his coat, changed into light and comfortable home clothes, and hurried to Political Commissar Xu's home.

At this moment, Political Commissar Xu had sorted out everything. If it weren't for the obvious bruise on his forehead and his overly pale complexion, he looked no different from usual.

He was seen sitting upright on the sofa, his body straight and motionless, like an unshakable mountain.

But if you look closely, you will find that his right hand is trembling slightly.

He held a cigarette in his hand, but did not light it. He just kept twisting it gently between his index finger and thumb. The cigarette seemed to have become the sustenance of his thoughts, and every twist was filled with endless meaning.

Geng Changshuo strode forward, his steps steady and powerful, as if every step contained firm determination.

He came to Political Commissar Xu, patted him on the shoulder, and then sat down opposite him. Although the two did not speak, they seemed to have communicated thousands of words through their eyes.

Time passed by, and the air was filled with tension. Finally, Geng Changshuo broke the silence and asked softly:

"When are we leaving?"

His voice was low and concerned, as if he was asking a question of life or death.

Political Commissar Xu took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, as if exhaling the annoyance in his heart. He stared into the distance, as if he saw a distant place through the wall. He was silent for a moment, then replied:

"Tonight! After all, Chunmei doesn't want to see her..."

There was a hint of helplessness and determination in his tone.

Geng Changshuo then asked: "So, what are your plans for the future? Have you decided on a response strategy?"

There was anxiety and worry in his eyes, as if he was worried that Political Commissar Xu would make an impulsive decision.

Political Commissar Xu's eyes became firm and decisive, and he responded without hesitation:

"Well, it's confirmed!"

There was an unquestionable power in his voice that made people feel trust in him.

Geng Changshuo did not ask about the specific plan because he knew that since Political Commissar Xu had already made the decision, he must have his own considerations.

Moreover, he could sense the unwavering faith in Xu Zhengwei's expression and tone. However, even though he did not ask, he already knew in his heart that Xu Zhengwei's stepmother must be resolved once and for all.

This is not only for themselves, but also for the overall situation. Only by solving this worry can they face future challenges without distraction.
