When he saw Fu Haitang again, Xiang Lifeng's eyes were dim. He didn't understand how he had given Fu Haitang the illusion that he only treated her as his younger sister.
Xiang Lifeng wanted to change the status quo, but he had no experience.
Border defense troops cannot drink to relieve their sorrows and can only bury their depression deep in their hearts.
He would still give Fu Haitang special treatment as agreed, but he was always worried about what kind of behavior his brother had done and wanted to avoid it.
Fu Haitang was slow in some aspects, but quite sharp in others. She sensed that Xiang Lifeng was in a bad mood, and asked anxiously, "Where did I fail to meet the standards?"
"Not bad." Xiang Lifeng came back to his senses and corrected some of his movements.
Fu Haitang always felt a little guilty. Xiang Lifeng helped her with good intentions, but he was still rumored to have an affair with her by the female soldiers... She felt that he must know something.
When she was about to leave, she thought for a moment and said, "Brother Lifeng, I'm so sorry."
Xiang Lifeng's heart sank and he couldn't help but think wildly, doesn't she need him to help her with special treatment?
Fu Haitang didn't know that he had such a rich inner world, and said sincerely: "It was you who helped me, but you were misunderstood by others. I..." He tried his best to explain.
Before she finished speaking, Xiang Lifeng interrupted her, "They didn't misunderstand."
This could be considered an analysis of his inner thoughts, and also the sentence he wanted to say the most. However, after telling Fu Haitang this, she was obviously a little confused.
No one else misunderstood? What does that mean? Did Xiang Lifeng not hear those rumors?
In this case, Fu Haitang felt relieved.
She smiled, "That's good."
Xiang Lifeng: “…” He once again felt a strong sense of frustration.
Not long after, Fu Haitang received a letter from home about her nephew. Looking at the photo of her brother, sister-in-law and Uncle Qin, she could hardly control her tears.
I miss my parents and my sister-in-law.
The other female soldiers watched her wiping tears while looking at the photo, occasionally glancing at her once or twice, and looking at Qin Dongling's many military medals, they felt that Fu Haitang's family background was unfathomable, so no one spread such rumors anymore.
In the entire army, everyone only knew that Xiang Lifeng and Fu Haitang were like brother and sister, and no one spread any rumors about the relationship between a couple of marriageable age.
Xiang Lifeng became more and more silent. Now, not only he and Fu Haitang were training alone, but even if they were seen walking side by side, they would not be misunderstood.
He didn't understand how things turned out like this.
In a blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching.
Almost all the border defense troops were unable to leave. Fu Haitang missed his family and was in a bad mood.
In order to appease the soldiers, several leaders decided to hold a Mid-Autumn Festival party. Everyone sang and admired the moon together to comfort everyone's homesickness.
As soon as the talent show began, the male soldiers performed wrestling and fighting, and some even performed backflips, which drew continuous applause.
Amidst the cheers, Xiang Lifeng's eyes were fixed on one direction, which was very similar to the time when he was in the 22nd Division. The difference was that Fu Haitang was in high spirits at that time, but now he seemed a little uneasy.
Xiang Lifeng knew that she was homesick. After all, she was only in her early twenties and had a harmonious family, so how could she not miss her?
"We can't just perform, the female volunteers have to perform too!" Someone shouted at this time.
A crowd of people echoed, "Yes, female volunteers also hold up half the sky."
In the end, even the group leader asked everyone to join in the fun.
