Chapter 15 Translation Completed

As the vehicle drove away, Aunt Wang's complaints gradually faded away.

Lin Anan frowned slightly, feeling annoyed by Aunt Wang's groundless accusations, but she didn't say much, just looked out the window quietly.

Wang Hu glanced at the rearview mirror and cleared his throat awkwardly, "Comrade Lin, don't take it personally. My mother has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She's not a bad person, she just has a sharp tongue."

Lin Anan just hummed lightly and did not answer.

How can a person with a sharp tongue, who can hurt others with just one word, have a kind heart?

Along the way, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere in the car was a bit depressing.

After a while, the car arrived at the Northwest Military Region Army Special Operations Battalion.

There were already many people busy at the scene, and various equipment were neatly arranged.

After Lin Anan got off the car, she saw Chu Mingzhou at a glance. He stood out in the crowd with his tall posture.

"Comrade Lin, you're here! Today we'll have to rely on you to cooperate with us." Reporter Chen waved at Lin Anan with a smile.

Reporter Chen was dressed very formally today. A dark blue thick wool coat made him look very energetic.

Lin Anan smiled and nodded, then walked towards him. "Don't worry, I'll do my best."

The recording equipment of that era was relatively backward, and film cameras were even more cumbersome, requiring staff to carry them around. After shooting a segment, they had to quickly carry them to another location.

"Are you all ready? Let's get started while the weather is nice."

Following the order from Captain Xu, the soldiers fell silent and stood in line under the leadership of Chu Mingzhou, ready to demonstrate at any time.

"start."

After the recording started, Lin Anan immediately entered working mode and focused fully.

In front of her stood reporter Chen and his colleague, one was responsible for explaining in Mandarin, one was responsible for English translation, and Lin Anan was naturally responsible for Japanese translation.

Each of them had to be very careful, because every time they made a mistake, they had to re-record, which was not only time-consuming and laborious, but also delayed everyone's progress.

As the recording progressed, the atmosphere on site became more and more tense and heated.

Fortunately, 80% of the shots were completed in one take, and the team members worked in perfect harmony.

"Our Chinese soldiers not only have excellent military qualities, but also have noble morals and sentiments. They love the motherland, are loyal to the people, and make selfless contributions. They are willing to give everything for the peace of the country and the happiness of the people. They are role models of the times and the backbone of the Chinese nation..."

"stop."

As Lin Anan finished her last word, the cameraman called for a stop. Everyone had a smile on their face, and their expressions were full of excitement as they gave a thumbs up to several people.

Lin Anan's eyes subconsciously looked in the direction of Chu Mingzhou, and happened to meet his gaze. They only looked at each other for a moment, her face slightly reddened, and then she pretended to look away naturally.

"The recording work has been completed and our mission has been successfully completed."

Reporter Chen whispered to a few colleagues for a moment, clapped his hands, and announced the end.

Lin Anan let out a long sigh, rested for a while, and prepared to go back.

She had nothing to collect, so she just chatted with the comrades from the Military Translation Office.

"Are you tired? You performed very well today."

Seeing that it was Chu Mingzhou coming, Lin Anan raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

"That's right, don't you see how powerful I am~"

Chu Mingzhou paused, and then the corners of his mouth raised a beautiful arc, "Well, very impressive."

The two looked at each other again, and the atmosphere became a little subtle.

Chu Mingzhou wanted to say something, but was a little hesitant. In the end, he just nodded gently, "I'll take you back."

"Okay, Mom will definitely be waiting for us to go back for dinner."

Lin Anan kept coughing along the way.

Chu Mingzhou looked at her from time to time, worry rolling in his eyes, "Is it because of your throat?"

The translation was follow-up throughout and could not be stopped in the middle, which was equivalent to Lin Anan speaking for the entire morning.

She was weak to begin with, and unlike them, the soldiers could not train in the cold wind.

"Well, my respiratory tract is a little sensitive. The weather here is cold and dry, and my throat is always itchy."

Lin Anan raised her hand and patted her chest, then coughed twice. "It's not a big problem. Thanks to the medicine Professor Liang prescribed, it's effective. It's a great cough suppressant and didn't make me look bad in front of the camera. Otherwise, it would definitely delay the progress."

Lin Anan didn't have any symptoms the whole morning. Her voice was steady and her tone was smooth, just like a normal person. It turned out that it was because of the medicine she took.

Chu Mingzhou moved his lips twice, wanting to say a word of thanks...

But Lin Anan didn't give him a chance!

"Hey, Mingzhou, are you really touched? I risked my life for you~"

Chu Mingzhou:?

Meeting his surprised gaze, Lin Anan blinked at him, "We two should not be polite. If you really want to thank me, tomorrow...can you help me pick up Lin Zihuai from the train station?"

"Lin Zihuai? Your brother?"

"Yes, he particularly admires you as his officer brother-in-law. If you go to pick him up, he will definitely be very happy, and it will also be very face-saving in front of his future comrades."

Chu Mingzhou: "..."

"Everything I said is true."

Chu Mingzhou was so angry that he laughed.

"He came here to contribute to the country. Military service is a badge of honor. He is not here to show off his military brother-in-law."

"I know, it's mainly because you're handsome! There's another guy coming with him this time, he's the son of our sugar factory director, he said before that he was interested in me..."

"I'll go."

"Okay~" Lin Anan's eyes curved, with a smile in her eyes.

When they got home, Lin's mother was sitting in the main hall with a gloomy face. Chu Minglan sat not far from her, pursing her lips, looking timid.

"Mom, we're back."

It was a great day, and according to Lin's mother's personality, she should be overjoyed.

But her mood was not right at the moment. She lowered her head and didn't respond when Lin Anan called her. She just sat there and tried to hold back her tears.

There was a hint of smile in Chu Mingzhou's eyes, but it disappeared the moment he saw Lin's mother.

"What happened?"

He was asking about Chu Minglan.

Chu Minglan pursed her lips, "Brother, someone said that sister-in-law..."

"Are you talking about me?" Lin Anan pointed at herself, also surprised.

Chu Mingzhou frowned, his face stern, "What did you say?"

"They say, they say my sister-in-law is a bad person..."

The girl talked for a long time, but she couldn't say the word "slut". Finally, she changed the point and said, "It was Sister Lihua who said that."

"Dai Lihua?"

"Well, today my aunt and I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things, and we ran into Sister Lihua, and they started arguing..."

Lin Anan lowered her eyes and thought for a moment.

Dai Lihua?

There seems to be such a character in the original book, but I can't remember it for the moment...

Lin Anan wanted to comfort her mother first, but she never expected that Chu Mingzhou was one step faster than her.

He poured a glass of water and handed it to Lin's mother, "Don't be angry, I will handle this matter and will not let Lin Anan suffer any loss."

Mother Lin snorted, turned her head away and did not answer.

She is so angry, it can't be solved with just a few words!

“There must be a misunderstanding.”

"Misunderstanding? That woman said that our An An was having an affair in the military compound, and you said that this was a misunderstanding? She said that she is a family member to you and can be the head of your family, and this is also called a misunderstanding?"

Chu Mingzhou's expression suddenly froze and he glanced at Chu Minglan.

Chu Minglan pursed her lips and nodded immediately.
