Although the negotiations were over, it would take some time to prepare the drugs. Pei Yingchun sat down and chatted with Shi: "Doctor Shi, besides your job of developing drugs, what else do you like? Riding horses? Shooting?"
Shi also took a sip of water, without even looking up, and said calmly, "Sorry, I don't like any of them."
Pei Yingchun didn't feel that he was being treated coldly at all. Instead, he became more enthusiastic: "Oh? I wonder where Doctor Shi is from? He must be an educated youth who suddenly came to the border to participate in the construction? Doctor Shi is really very conscious."
Shi also raised his eyes to look at Pei Yingchun. This guy's endless praise was really unbearable.
Bao Qing couldn't stand it any longer and stood behind Shi Ye, looking at Pei Yingchun with a look of guarding against him.
This guy, even though he’s not good-looking, he’s pretty good at fooling little girls. Why hasn’t Xiao Yue come back yet?
"To be honest, Comrade Shi, I admire you very much. Perhaps if there is a chance, I can invite you to visit Annan?" Pei Yingchun kept asking some irrelevant topics, and Shi responded incoherently, showing a lack of interest.
Annan is not a big place, but its people are cunning and always causing trouble from time to time.
In her previous life, she often heard Jiang Zishan talk about Annan. Every time he mentioned it, he always looked worried and had a headache.
Shi also raised his eyes and glanced at Pei Yingchun, admiring her?
Haha, she is not some young girl in love who gets so excited when she hears a senior military officer praising her. Pei Yingchun said this just because she developed streptomycin and he was trying to win her over under the guise of admiration.
Bao Qing was furious, his eyes widened. Just as he was about to yell, he heard a clear and crisp voice coming from outside the barracks: "Captain Pei, you should put your little thoughts aside. Comrade Shiye is a Chinese border defense doctor. I'm sorry that I can't accept your invitation."
Shi also looked up at the barracks entrance and breathed a sigh of relief, finally he was back.
Pei Yingchun had bad intentions. Although she cooperated in signing the drug transaction contract and helped her complete the task, it was obvious that she was being targeted. This man had a good brain but a bad heart, so there was no guarantee that he would not do something like robbing people.
To be honest, she didn't like Pei Yingchun. He gave people a sinister feeling, like a poisonous snake that would bite people at any time.
Xiao Yue pushed the door open and walked in. He looked up and met Shi Ye's pitiful little eyes. He pursed his lips slightly, looked away and looked at Pei Yingchun. A warm and cool voice poured out from his lips, with a lazy taste: "It seems that I am back late."
When Pei Yingchun saw Xiao Yue, although there was a smile on his face, his spirit became tense.
In his opinion, talking with Shi Ye was far less dangerous than being with Xiao Yue. This man had changed a lot.
"Captain Xiao, you are joking. If Doctor Shi had stopped being a military doctor, she would have been an excellent diplomat. I believe in her ability. I am very satisfied with this deal. Similarly, I will keep Doctor Shi's words in mind and will always remember the friendship between Annan and China. Although I was rejected, I still want to say, Doctor Shi, Annan welcomes you at any time."
After saying this, Pei Yingchun stood up and left the barracks with Ander. When passing Xiao Yue, he whispered, "Goodbye."
Xiao Yue's eyes were deep and he replied indifferently, "I'm sorry I can't see you off."
As soon as the people left, Bao Qing rushed over to complain: "Why did you come back just now? You don't know how annoying Pei Yingchun is! I suspect he has set his sights on Comrade Shi Ye, like a cat in heat! He just wants to seduce women!"
Xiao Yue frowned and looked at Bao Qing unhappily. This man always spoke without restraint.
When Bao Qing saw his gaze, he was speechless, coughed lightly, and pointed outside the barracks: "Well, I'm going to see how the medicine preparations are going, and send the person away. It always feels unsafe for Pei Yingchun to stay in our camp! I'll keep an eye on him!"
After saying that, Bao Qing ran away.
As soon as he left, the atmosphere in the barracks became cold, and Shi looked at Xiao Yue suspiciously: "Where have you been?"
Somehow, she always felt that Xiao Yue was in a bad mood, and there was even a hint of fatigue between his brows.
Xiao Yue's eyelids trembled, and he looked up at Shi Ye, sizing her up calmly.
Being controlled by others, unwilling to marry him, forced, all the words Zhou Yunce said gathered in his mind, making him uncomfortable.
Xiao Yue was annoyed and turned around to leave, but as soon as he turned around, he was held by a pair of soft and cool hands.
The next moment, a hand was placed on his forehead, accompanied by Makiya's puzzled voice: "You don't have a fever, you're not sick, where have you been? Why do you look so worried?"
Xiao Yue lowered his eyes and looked at Shi Ye's slightly worried eyes. His Adam's apple rolled and he bent down to look at her at eye level. Such a close distance made Shi Ye feel a little uncomfortable. She wanted to step back, but Xiao Yue held her wrist and she couldn't move.
He looked at her, his voice was not loud but clear, and every word was meaningful: "Shiye, you agreed to marry me because you were controlled by me and forced by me?"
Shiya nodded frantically in his heart, what else?
However, looking at Xiao Yue's expression, she always felt that she couldn't say this honestly.
After thinking for a while, Shi didn't retreat but moved forward, bumping into Xiao Yue's arms. The two of them were closer, and their hot breath could almost spray on each other's face. She blinked, with a curve at the corner of her lips: "What are you talking about? Wasn't it me who proposed to you first?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yue's eyes fell on her face. His expression was calm, without any trace of excitement. On the contrary, there was a flash of indescribable loneliness in the depths of his eyes. No matter how stupid he was, he could see that Shi Ye was pretending.
Xiao Yue showed a hint of alienation in his expression. He straightened up and said, "Li Xiulian called Yandu to confirm your engagement with Zhou Yunce. Perhaps, it's my fault. Shiye, just pretend I never mentioned the engagement."
Hearing this, Makiya's face showed a stunned expression, then turned to surprise: "What did you say?"
Xiao Yue took off the ring on his hand and handed it to Shi Ye, saying nothing: "Zhou Yunce is a good man."
Shi also lowered his eyes to look at the ring in his palm which still had warmth in it, and tightened his grip, then raised his eyes to look at Xiao Yue, not missing the expression on his face: "You mean, you don't want to marry me? You want me to marry Zhou Yunce?"
Xiao Yue didn't say anything else. He glanced at Shi Ye calmly, turned around and walked out of the barracks: "Go back."
Shi also looked at his somewhat lonely figure, looked at the ring in his hand, and suddenly sneered, thinking he was really fickle.
Just as she was about to put the ring away, her expression suddenly changed. She rushed towards Xiao Yue, grabbed his hand, put the ring back on him, and said in a cold tone, "Marriage is such a big thing, it can't start or end just because you say so! Xiao Yue, things have come to this point, and the final result must be decided by me."
She frowned and looked so angry that Xiao Yue was stunned.
"Wear it! Don't take it off again! We are grasshoppers on the same boat, and you want to jump off the boat without caring about my life or death?"
"Xiao Yue, I have decided it's you."
