Bang bang bang!

Gunfire suddenly intensified again. Lin Chuchu carefully discerned the sounds and realized they were coming from different directions—reinforcements had arrived!

Lin Chuchu still dared not move. She was waiting, waiting for the captain to let her get up.

After an unknown amount of time, the gunshots gradually faded away.

The leaves on Lin Chuchu's head were brushed aside, and she was helped up. Her body was somewhat numb from not moving for a long time.

For the first time, a gentle expression appeared on the captain's face. "Comrade Lin, you cooperated very well. Let's go, we should rejoin the team."

Lin Chuchu nodded and followed behind the captain with weak steps.

"Captain, will they... die?"

The captain paused, "No, some of them will survive."

He believed in his team members; it was impossible for them all to die, but some would be injured.

Lin Chuchu knew he was trying to comfort her, but she still unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

They arrived at the location quickly; the ground was riddled with holes, and there were many bullet casings and bloodstains.

Lin Chuchu glanced at the team members and noticed that two of them had bloodstains on their clothes.

Her expression immediately tensed up. Were they injured?

The smell of blood was too strong, and Lin Chuchu could only suppress her nausea and rest on the side, watching the captain examine their wounds.

Lin Chuchu, afraid of seeing her wound, turned her head away to look elsewhere.

Just then, Lin Chuchu suddenly felt the grass in a certain spot move.

Lin Chuchu shouted a warning.

He then hid behind a tree nearby.

The soldiers who were bandaging the wound acted swiftly, immediately raising their guns, locking onto their targets, and firing.

Gunshots rang out from the opposite side, and Lin Chuchu felt a loud bang from the tree behind her.

Lin Chuchu stared wide-eyed, too afraid to move.

Luckily, I was close to the tree, and luckily, I reacted quickly and immediately hid behind it.

It's likely that the person on the other side wasn't initially targeting her, but only opened fire on her after she noticed them; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to dodge.

The captain rushed towards Lin Chuchu, and when he saw her stunned expression, his heart skipped a beat.

"Comrade Lin, are you injured?"

He grabbed her shoulders and examined Lin Chuchu's body repeatedly.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no blood.

After a moment's hesitation, the captain hugged the person tightly. "It's alright, the enemy is dead, you're safe now."

He knew Lin Chuchu must be scared.

Lin Chuchu took a while to come to her senses, then pushed the person away and said in a hoarse voice.

"I...I'm fine...Ugh..."

She couldn't hold it in any longer and vomited. Lin Chuchu felt it was a miracle that she had been able to endure it until now.

My back was gently patted.

"Comrade Lin, I'm sorry for what I just said. I was being presumptuous."

Lin Chuchu shook her head and waved her hand to indicate that she was alright.

Then came a few more dry heaves.

The captain and his team members remained silent. They were used to life and death, but when they saw a battle scene for the first time, some of them were not as brave as Lin Chuchu.

Lin Chuchu vomited for a while and felt a little better, then wiped her mouth.

She took the water bottle and gulped down a few mouthfuls before she recovered.

The captain stood in front of Lin Chuchu with a serious expression.

Lin Chuchu took two steps back. "What's wrong? Why are you so serious?"

The captain put his legs together, shouted "Salute!", and the team members behind him raised their hands to salute Lin Chuchu.

Lin Chuchu subconsciously raised her hand to return the greeting, but then felt it was inappropriate.

"Hey? What are you doing? Why are you saluting me?"

It made her quite nervous.

The captain shouted, "Thank you so much, Comrade Lin, for saving us. If it weren't for you, some of us would definitely have died. You deserve it."

If Lin Chuchu hadn't reacted quickly, the enemy would definitely have opened fire on them.

Caught completely off guard, someone is bound to die.

Lin Chuchu waved her hand hastily, "It's all what I should do."

The captain lowered his hand and said nothing more.

Gratitude is kept in the heart.

However, Lin Chuchu's composure is truly rare; she remains calm and collected, unlike ordinary women who would scream when faced with a problem.

The supporting troops cleared the battlefield and headed back to the camp with everyone.

Lin Chuchu was too tired to walk on her own, so she was carried on someone's back.

What to do? It seems to have become a burden.

Lin Chuchu felt incredibly guilty, but there was nothing she could do.

They soon arrived at the military camp, where conditions were harsh. Tents were everywhere, and only one house had been built; the rest were still under construction.

The only house was left for Lin Chuchu to live in.

Knowing that Lin Chuchu was coming, the kitchen specially prepared three dishes for her.

One serving of stir-fried pork with green peppers, one serving of stir-fried eggs with tomatoes, and one serving of cold shredded potatoes.

Two meat dishes are the best they can offer right now.

Even so, he kept apologizing to Lin Chuchu, promising to prepare something delicious for her tomorrow.

This made Lin Chuchu very embarrassed.

He waved his hands repeatedly in refusal.

"Commander, there's no need to cook separately for me. I can eat the same food as the soldiers."

The environment on the frontier was too harsh, and she didn't want to cause trouble for the army.

After finishing her meal, Lin Chuchu lay down on the wooden bed and quickly drifted off to sleep.

The next morning, Lin Chuchu woke up to the sound of a whistle.

I haven't heard it in a long time, and I miss it a little.

Since she was already awake, Lin Chuchu simply got up, washed up, and walked out of the room. The two soldiers guarding the door immediately noticed her.

"Comrade Lin is awake. The captain told us not to disturb you. Are you hungry? Would you like me to bring you some food?"

The special forces team is not only responsible for escorting Lin Chuchu, but also for her safety.
