Chapter 46 Dust to dust, ashes to ashes

"yes!"

Chu Lulu looked at the people sitting upright, even Wang Ziqiang, who was usually unreliable, now had a serious expression.

"Have a meal."

Xiao Jinli picked up a large piece of stewed fish and put it into Chu Lulu's bowl.

"Eat slowly, there are many bones in the carp."

After putting it down, he gave me one last piece of advice.

"drink wine!"

"Boss, stop being so wishy-washy and come drink."

"Sister Lu, I salute you! That sneak attack with hidden weapons was absolutely brilliant!"

A soft silver needle can actually be used as a hidden weapon.

I've never seen Sister Lu make a move before, who would believe it if I told them?

Sister Lu said that if you practice well, not only can silver needles be used as hidden weapons, but even some soft objects can be used as hidden weapons.

He practiced with pebbles for half a month, but he still couldn't hit the target accurately.

Chu Lulu held her bowl and clinked it against Wang Ziqiang's. "Little brother, you need to practice cooking more."

Wang Ziqiang: ...

That's heartbreaking!

Sister Lu, we don't need to say that out loud.

Xiao Jinli turned his head and looked at her rosy little face.

Wait a minute!

Could it be what he's thinking?

"Xiao Jinli, you just wait!"

"Sooner or later, I'll steal a bandit's man!"

Chu Lulu's voice was soft and sweet. When she wasn't angry, her voice was a little low. In the noisy room, only Liu Juan, who was sitting next to her, and Huang Chendong, who was sitting next to Xiao Jinli, could hear it.

The two of them turned to the side in unison, changing their direction.

To protect oneself is wise.

It's better not to know what you shouldn't know.

Xiao Jinli sighed, gently pinched her chin with his hand, and made her look at him.

The dazed look in his eyes was completely different from his usual hazy expression.

My suspicions have been confirmed!

Who says you can't drink a lot of medicinal wine?

Although it has little alcohol content, it can be drunk by many people who brew wine.

"Are you hungry? Would you like to eat?"

"good!"

When Chu Lulu is drunk, she is very well-behaved. Apart from her sudden bursts of grand pronouncements, she does whatever she is asked to do, quietly and without making a fuss.

Xiao Jinli mixed the rice with vegetables, making two bowls, and placed them in front of her.

Then I went to the cutlery area and took a small spoon.

"Have a meal."

"good."

Chu Lulu lowered her head and obediently ate with her small spoon, like a three or four-year-old child, well-behaved.

Completely different from his usual quirky and mischievous self, the stark contrast made Xiao Jinli's palms itch.

But there were too many people, and he couldn't make a move.

Liu Juan lowered her head and shrugged her shoulders. Sister Lu is so cute. I really want to touch her.

She still hasn't mastered the skills. Didn't she see the victim on the other side? Was she calmly eating as if nothing had happened?

Huang Chendong felt the gaze, looked up at her, and then continued eating as if nothing had happened.

Only the chewing motion of his mouth can suppress the corners of his mouth!

Stop pouting!

"Sister Lu, let's drink!"

"Let's skip the food, eating is so boring, let's drink."

"From now on, I'll go hunting with you. Wherever you go, I'll go. I'll never go against you again."

Who else could be so talkative but Wang Ziqiang?

He was sitting next to Huang Chendong, which put him in a blind spot, so he didn't see the interaction between Chu Lulu and Xiao Jinli.

Just as Huang Chendong was about to burst out laughing, a suicidal person popped up.

Huang Chendong quickly covered Wang Ziqiang's mouth, saying, "You're asking for it, don't drag others into it."

Do you think you can mess with the current battalion commander?

"It's alright, you guys keep eating. He's drunk and talking nonsense!"

"Waaaaahh ...

Wang Ziqiang tried to dodge Huang Chendong's hand, but Huang accurately predicted his movements several times, giving him no chance to speak.

"I'll take him out for a walk, and we'll come back to eat later."

"Don't worry about us, you guys eat first, eat first."

Then Huang Chendong pulled Wang Ziqiang along, and the two of them staggered out.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

"Little Huang, this isn't how you hold grudges. I was exchanging feelings with Sister Lu."

Huang Chendong felt much better after laughing!

Finally remembering their camaraderie, he swung an arm over Wang Ziqiang's shoulder and then smacked him on the back of the head.

"If you can't use your brain, then don't use it at all."

"Want to show off your superior intelligence? Turns out you're in an intelligence vacuum."

“Wang Ziqiang, listen to my advice. From now on, keep your thoughts to yourself and don’t show them on your face, or the world will know.”

It will lower the overall IQ of the entire Independent Battalion!

Sister Lu is one of us, so it's okay if she makes a fool of herself.

But what about outsiders?

He lost face for the entire independent battalion; he was too embarrassed to go out.

Wang Ziqiang knew nothing, and was suddenly startled by the usually taciturn Xiao Huang, leaving him completely stunned.

"You've broken up with your boyfriend?"

Sudden……

Some people have their own thought processes, and no one can interfere with them.

Huang Chendong patted him on the shoulder, his eyes filled with concern, "You're doing well."

Wang Ziqiang scratched the back of his head, watching Xiao Huang walk into the cafeteria, "He must have broken up with his girlfriend, otherwise why would he be acting like this?"

"My brain is unmatched in the world."

Feeling defeated? Questioning the meaning of life?

You're overthinking it!

He will only become more confident and arrogant...

After Chu Lulu finished eating two bowls of rice, Xiao Jinli looked at Huang Chendong and said, "I'll take Lulu back. You guys finish eating and clean up."

"Liu Juan..."

Liu Juan is Lu Lu's friend, so naturally she can't be left here.

As soon as Xiao Jinli looked at Liu Juan, Liu Juan immediately stood up straight.

"Battalion Commander Xiao, don't worry about me. You take Sister Lu back first. What danger could she possibly be in the military region?"

and……

It's only five o'clock now, and the sky is just getting a little dark, not completely dark yet.

Huang Chendong went to find Xiao Xie and brought back two lunchboxes. "This is the food Xiao Xie prepared. Take it back to Sister Lu. She's asleep now and might get hungry in the middle of the night."

After serving the dishes, Xiao Xie saw that Sister Lu was enjoying her meal, so she didn't disturb her.

They found Huang Chendong, who was in charge of internal affairs in the independent battalion, and secretly told him that Sister Lu had asked him to take her lunchbox when she left.

"After we finish eating, we'll take Liu Juan home. Don't worry."

Everything was arranged. Xiao Jinli looked at the person beside her. Although she wasn't asleep, her eyelids were drooping.

"Xiao Jinli".

"Um."

"Xiao Jinli?"

"I'm here."

“Xiao Jinli…”

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Jinli responded helplessly to each name called.

That wine won't get you drunk, but some people get drunk after just a sip!

"Come here..."

Chu Lulu suddenly raised her head, her eyes blurry with drunkenness, her little mouth pouting, looking adorably dazed.

The index finger gently hooked, the sound somewhat indistinct.

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Jinli lowered his head and moved closer to her.

Unexpectedly...

Sister Lu's expression changed in an instant, "I feel like throwing up."

"Xiao Jinli, what I'm spewing out is gold, is knowledge, shining brightly, and profound in meaning. You better pretend it's real!"

Xiao Jinli closed his eyes briefly, because as soon as he finished speaking, Sister Lu vomited.

The food I just ate hasn't been digested yet!

At this moment, it was all given to the earth, and to Xiao Jinli's military overcoat.

It's like dust returning to dust, ashes returning to ashes, isn't it?
