"Wait until the flowers bloom next year."
"What? What will happen then?"
"Next spring, when this flower blooms, we will surely have overcome this crisis and happily returned to Lanjing. We can even graduate early. I want to dig up this rose and bring it back so that it can sprout new buds and bloom again. I want to live a good life."
After she finished speaking, she turned her gaze away from the rolling mountains, lowered her head, placed her hands on her knees, then stretched out her arms wide and lay down on the soft grass. Her nostrils were filled with the fragrance of grass, and she could hear the chirping of insects at dusk.
Zhao Xuerou turned her head and glanced at Ke Bing, who was smiling broadly. She fidgeted with her fingers, hesitated for a moment, and then looked away.
"The scars on your body..." She paused, then finally spoke, "What happened? I've never heard you mention them before." After asking, she added, "If it's inconvenient to talk about, then never mind."
Ke Bing lay on her own arm, turned to her side, and showed no intention of hiding anything; on the contrary, she laughed more and more happily.
"I'll tell you later, I'll tell you if I win."
On April 29th of the first year of the Federal Calendar, at 5:42 PM, there was no sunset, and the sky was very gloomy.
Two women sat on the lush grass, a gentle breeze around them, and dozens of silver buildings behind them. Ke Bing talked about the rose she had grown.
We will win.
They firmly believed this, without any doubt.
Xiao Rou remembered this minute; she was waiting for Ke Bing to tell her.
They made a pinky promise, waiting for a tomorrow that was yet to come.
Last night, Zhao Xuerou took out a bag of potato chips. It was quite a rare sight in this desolate place. Ke Bing put his arm around her waist and reached out his wicked hand.
Xiaorou said she feels like she's in her senior year of high school, waiting for exams, facing a major life decision that seems both rushed and solemn, as if she's suddenly about to make a big decision, even though she's still a child.
My life is very fulfilling every day.
Training, eating, sleeping.
I have no mood to do anything else. When I have free time, I just want to close my eyes and rest to relax my nerves.
Ke Bing stuck his sinful hand out of the potato chip bag, put it in his mouth, made a "crunch" sound, and hummed a couple of times in response.
Xiao Rou said she was determined to stay, but she lacked confidence in herself. She wasn't good at physical training, and during the five-kilometer run, she wanted to give up at every step of the second half.
But seeing others running, I mechanically started moving forward, waiting for a seemingly endless finish line, thinking, "When will we get there? When will we get there? I'm so tired, I really don't want to run anymore..."
As she spoke, she forgot to eat the potato chips she was holding, and stared at Ke Bing earnestly, telling her not to laugh at her. While running, she was actually cursing the people in front of her, wondering why they were running so fast, making her look so useless.
When she reached the finish line, she was so anxious that she almost cried. She really wanted Jiang Cheng to see her and know how deep her love was. She wanted him to be moved.
Ke Bing echoed, "What a good woman!" Zhao Xuerou immediately smiled and said she thought so too, adding that good women are rare these days.
Unaware that she was getting carried away, Ke Bing ate a lot more potato chips.
Zhao Xuerou tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and stood up. She said she really wanted to be Iron Man, charging through physical training without getting dizzy at all in the cockpit, invincible in every training exercise, and able to run 800 meters in one step.
Halfway through her sentence, she reached out her hand in a diving gesture, then, realizing it was inappropriate, withdrew her hand, feigning modesty.
Oh, actually, I don't need to be so strong. I've already got Adela under my thumb and she doesn't dare to say a word. It's all because of that You Lixuan who insisted on not letting us fight. Otherwise, I would have beaten that woman up until she was covered in bumps.
She raised an eyebrow, and Ke Bing agreed, giving a thumbs-up as she ate.
Zhao Xuerou said, "Little girl, why don't you come with me to study something new? I've been wanting to practice Tai Chi lately. Let's practice secretly without Luo Xiaoli knowing."
When it came time to fight the big boss, a Tai Chi move stunned the ancient creature. Saving the world was a piece of cake. That's ancient martial arts.
Ke Bing said something that made sense, watching Xiao Rou perform what was nothing but a ridiculous Tiger Crane Double Form.
After eating the potato chips for a while, Ke Bing finally finished them. She stopped pretending, stood up, threw the bag on the table, and went back to her bed to rest.
Zhao Xuerou looked at her with dissatisfaction, saying that she hadn't finished demonstrating yet, so why was she leaving?
Ke Bing told her to get lost.
Xiao Rou glared at her, put her hands on her hips, and asked her if she knew how to speak properly.
Ke Bing twisted his neck and loosened his muscles, then grabbed her hand, pinned her down, and gave her a good beating, proving that her Tiger Crane Double Form or Tai Chi was completely useless.
A few minutes later, Luo Xiaoli returned from outside. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Ke Bing hitting Zhao Xuerou's trousers. Zhao Xuerou scolded her, "Stop hitting them! They weren't even there to begin with. If you keep hitting them, they'll dent!"
She was silent for a moment, then took a piece of paper out of her pocket and placed it on the dormitory table.
She told the two of them to stop fighting for now, as the latest elimination list hadn't been announced yet, but she secretly got it from Jiang Cheng.
Of the 1,500 people who came, nearly half have already left. Those people were completely unable to adapt to the high-intensity training, and more importantly, the cockpit dizziness was too severe, so they had no potential to become war maiden pilots.
Taking advantage of Ke Bing's inattention, Zhao Xuerou broke free from her restraints and picked up a piece of paper to study it.
Her expression was extremely serious, and she would frown from time to time while making clicking noises.
The other two women came over and watched with her for a long time, but Zhao Xuerou remained silent, focused only on her research.
The two waited in silence, feeling that Xiaorou seemed to have some brilliant insight.
