Chapter 435: Tossing and Turning ~ Captain Xu

"Isn't that right? Your army cafeteria still discriminates against female soldiers? Male soldiers are allowed to eat as much as they want, but are there any restrictions on the amount of food female soldiers can eat? They're not allowed to eat four steamed buns per meal?" Ye Zhaodi's eyes suddenly widened as she complained to Xu Feng, "How can an army cafeteria be like this? There are girls who eat a lot too."

Xu Feng moved his lips and actually wanted to say something, but looking at Ye Zhaodi's angry look, he felt that he couldn't explain it clearly.

So I let out a long sigh.

He said, "...anyone can eat it. No matter whether they are men or women, they can eat as much as they want."

Ye Zhaodi was delighted when she heard this. "That's what I said. How could the army discriminate against female soldiers? Being a soldier is so good. You can have a full meal every day. Captain Xu, you are so lucky."

Xu Feng had a smile on his face, but he felt bitter in his heart.

He originally wanted to explain clearly that even if he ate more, he would not eat his family into poverty, but why didn't Ye Zhaodi understand?

puff.

Suddenly there was a soft chuckle.

Ye Zhaodi and Xu Feng looked up at the same time and saw Chu Yue with a smile on her face.

They thought Chu Yue had just walked over, but in fact Chu Yue had been standing there for a while.

She listened in the corner again.

It was because Ye Zhaodi and Xu Feng didn't notice that she was a living person.

Chu Yue understood what Ye Zhaodi didn’t understand.

Xu Feng was worried that Ye Zhaodi would dislike his ability to eat and that he ate too much, and even more worried that she would dislike him for being poor.

It turns out that even rough guys can feel anxious and helpless sometimes.

Thinking back to when he was ignorant of the ways of the world and pushed the girl from the art troupe out, he was definitely a straight man.

Now, when a straight man meets a straight woman, Xu Feng also suffers.

Ye Zhaodi is a thoughtful person in her daily life. She is old enough to have a boyfriend, but she has always been burdened with the weight of life and her mind is full of her younger brother. She has never thought about having a boyfriend or getting married.

In other words, the girl just hasn't figured it out yet.

After seeing Chu Yue, Ye Zhaodi stood up immediately. Xu Feng looked embarrassed and stood up slowly.

Chu Yue still pretended to know nothing and reminded, "We're closing half an hour early today, Zhaodi, go home early."

The grocery store closed early. Xu Feng drove the car and originally wanted to take Chu Yue and Lu Yuanbao back to the military compound, so the three of them packed up together and closed the store.

Xu Feng drove Ye Zhaodi and sent her back first.

After Ye Zhaodi got off the car, she kept waving to Chu Yue, "Sister Yue, goodbye."

She smiled so brightly, but she didn't say goodbye to Xu Feng.

Xu Feng sat in the driver's seat, lowered the window, and said to the girl outside the window, "Ye Zhaodi, you still owe me a meal."

"Don't worry, I remember that I'll treat everyone to a meal after I move!"

Ye Zhaodi did not forget her original promise.

When Xu Feng heard Ye Zhaodi's answer, he was visibly happy. On the way back, he could still be heard humming military songs.

Lu Yuanbao asked Chu Yue softly, "Mom, why is Uncle Xu so happy?"

Chu Yue touched Lu Yuanbao's little face and said, "Maybe he's happy because he thinks he can have a big meal again."

Lu Yuanbao nodded, thinking that what Chu Yue said made sense. Eating a big meal was the happiest thing.

…

That night, the military barracks dormitory was pitch black.

There was a clang, and a figure quickly sat up from the narrow dormitory bed, accompanied by his heavy breathing.

The night was silent, so the exhalation seemed particularly loud.

Xu Feng sat there blankly. After the initial shock slowly receded like the tide, he was followed by a wave of regret.

Xu Feng, how could you have such a dream!

He cursed himself fiercely in his heart.

Xu Feng pulled back the quilt on his body. Even in the dim light, he could still see a circle of dampness.

For a moment, the dormitory was filled with the sound of men cursing rudely.

He cursed fiercely, then stood up, tore off the quilt and sheets, and walked to the bathroom without complaint.

Xu Feng lived in a single dormitory, surrounded by company commanders and battalion commanders in the army. Some of the company commanders and battalion commanders were also called "old bachelors".

If you are married and have a wife, you should apply for family housing and live in the family compound.

Each floor shared one bathroom, so Xu Feng walked to the public bathroom, filled with regret and anger, and washed the sheets and quilts vigorously with gritted teeth.

The splashing cold water couldn't dilute the irritability in Xu Feng's body.

How could it be...how could it be...her?

When Xu Feng returned to the dormitory, he lay down on the wooden bed without covering himself with anything, and fell asleep with his legs spread out.

Everything around returned to silence. It was the late night, two hours before dawn, which was the time when most people slept the deepest.

But—Xu Feng couldn’t sleep.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the dream he had just had appeared in his mind. It was so excessive and indescribable that it kept reappearing over and over again in his excited mind.

Whether he was silently reciting military songs in his heart or reciting the army's confidentiality code, the beautiful pictures in his mind could not be shaken off.

Xu Feng turned over and over on the wooden bed, and the bed creaked every time he turned over.

The noise made Xu Feng even more upset.

After being restless for a long time and tossing and turning many times, Xu Feng had to accept the fact that he couldn't sleep and his increasingly confused consciousness.

If this continues, it will definitely affect his daytime training.

Xu Feng stood up, walked out of his dormitory, pried open the door of the dormitory next door, and entered silently.

Huh—huh—huh—

The dormitory was filled with the sound of a man's snoring. Xu Feng stood at the head of the bed and stared at the person who was sleeping soundly on the bed.

He raised his foot and kicked the iron bed in the dormitory.

The bed began to shake, and the sleeper suddenly woke up.

"What happened? An earthquake?"

As a professional soldier, after being awakened by the "earth-shaking" sound in the middle of the night, he subconsciously thought it was an earthquake and immediately put on his clothes and entered emergency mode.

When the man looked up, he found a dark figure beside the bed.

Big and tall, silent, staring down at him.

"Ah—ghost—who are you—"

"Wang Cheng, what are you yelling about in the middle of the night?"

Xu Feng really couldn't help it and complained in a low voice.

The person who was awakened by his kick was none other than Xu Feng's old enemy Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng finally recognized Xu Feng's voice and almost gasped for breath. He said angrily, "Xu Feng, do you know it's late at night? What are you doing standing by my bed at this time of night? I closed the door last night, how did you get in? Xu Feng! You're trying to pry the door open again!"

Obviously, this is not the first time Xu Feng has done this, he has a long history of doing so.
