Chapter 51 Commendation Conference
Zhou Xiaohong had no choice but to go to the military camp with Ye Wangshu the next day.
The families of the military camp leaders sat in the first row of the audience stands, while Ye Wangshu and Zhou Xiaohong sat in the second row because Zhou Jincong won first place.
The position arrangement was very loose, with three empty seats on the left and right of Ye Wangshu and Zhou Xiaohong.
The military commendation meeting was not as drawn out as Ye Wangshu had experienced before. The leaders spoke first, and soon after, Zhou Jincong, who won the first place in the competition, spoke.
Ye Wangshu looked at Zhou Jincong with admiration, his eyes never moving.
Zhou Jincong stood on the podium, holding the microphone and delivering his award speech.
His tall and straight figure and deep voice made the female soldiers in the art troupe beside him all glare at him. Even the married ones couldn't help but be infatuated with him.
"Hey! So you're a military family member!"
Ye Wangshu was suddenly slapped on the shoulder. She turned her head and saw an acquaintance.
"Hello, soldier sister!" Ye Wangshu immediately recognized that this person was the soldier sister who caught the pervert when he went to the city to buy vegetables before, and hurriedly greeted her.
"You still remember me!" Sister Bing looked surprised, and then she put her arm around Ye Wangshu's shoulders. "Calling you Sister Bing is too weird. My name is Gu Hongqi, I should be older than you. You can just call me Sister Hong from now on."
"Sister Hong," Ye Wangshu called out softly, and then added, "My name is Ye Wangshu, and the one on the stage is my husband."
"So you're Zhou Jincong's wife!" Gu Hongqi looked at Ye Wangshu with curiosity, then nodded, "Indeed, this look is perfect for Zhou Jincong. You two are a match made in heaven!"
Ye Wangshu blushed, then said, "Sister Hong is also very beautiful!"
"Me? Good-looking?" Gu Hongqi looked at Ye Wangshu with an exaggerated expression, as if Ye Wangshu was joking.
"Of course!" Ye Wangshu nodded. "Sister Hong's beauty isn't feminine; it's cool and handsome! You're more attractive than any of those guys!"
"Hahaha! That makes sense!" Gu Hongqi was successfully amused by Ye Wangshu. "With my looks, I can indeed rank among the top three men in the barracks."
Gu Hongqi has a resolute face, short hair and a tall stature.
If you don't look closely, you would think she is a man, and a good-looking man at that.
"They all call me a tomboy, and now it seems they think I'm blocking their chance of romance!" Gu Hongqi was in a very good mood and moved closer to Ye Wangshu again.
"By the way, Song Ruanruan is always clinging to your husband. You have to pay attention to her."
Gu Hongqi pointed at Song Ruanruan and showed it to Ye Wangshu. Only then did Ye Wangshu realize that Song Ruanruan had also attended the commendation meeting.
But it’s true, Zhou Jincong had said before that military families could participate.
As a nominal military doctor in the army, Song Ruanruan naturally had to participate.
"If anything had happened to them, it wouldn't be my turn to marry Jin Cong." Ye Wangshu didn't take Song Ruanruan seriously, but sometimes her actions were really disgusting.
While Zhou Jincong was speaking, he kept staring at Ye Wangshu, and felt very jealous when he saw her hugging Gu Hongqi.
After finishing his speech, Zhou Jincong walked down the stage and headed towards Ye Wangshu.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the stage, Song Ruanruan came over.
"Brother Jin Cong, you were so handsome just now! Many sisters in the art troupe are fascinated by you!"
Song Ruanruan blushed as she followed Zhou Jincong. To outsiders, they looked like a couple.
As soon as he saw Song Ruanruan, Zhou Jincong subconsciously dodged backwards and kept a distance from her.
Song Ruanruan noticed his action and was very sad, "Brother Jin Cong, are you really going to abandon the friendship we have had since we were young?"
Song Ruanruan looked at Zhou Jincong with a wronged expression, her eyes moist, as if she was about to cry in the next second.
"If you continue to pester me, I don't mind being a stranger to you."
Zhou Jincong frowned slightly, left Song Ruanruan and walked towards Ye Wangshu.
Song Ruanruan felt a pang in her heart, and followed Zhou Jincong towards Ye Wangshu.
As soon as he saw Zhou Jincong coming, Ye Wangshu separated from his former friend.
"My husband is so great!" Ye Wangshu looked at Zhou Jincong and couldn't help but praise him.
Zhou Jincong glanced at Gu Hongqi, then sat between Ye Wangshu and Gu Hongqi.
Seeing this, Gu Hongqi couldn't recognize it and sneered, "I didn't expect that our army sergeant would be jealous! How could I, a female soldier, steal your wife?!"
After hearing this, Ye Wangshu finally reacted and whispered in Zhou Jincong's ear, "Hubby, it turns out you like me so much!"
"Yeah." Zhou Jincong blushed and immediately turned away.
Song Ruanruan followed behind. There was no room for another person to sit next to Zhou Jincong, so she had to move closer to Zhou Xiaohong.
At this time, the female soldiers of the art troupe were performing a drama. When the story reached a passionate part, it instantly attracted applause and cheers from the crowd.
Gu Hongqi stepped forward and patted Ye Wangshu's leg across from Zhou Jincong, saying, "By the way, Miss Wangshu, you have to pay attention to the female lead on the stage too!"
"ah?"
Ye Wangshu felt a little doubtful, but when he glanced at Song Ruanruan, he realized that the heroine of this opera was also his love rival.
The opera was quickly performed, and because of the interlude of Zhou Jincong, the few people had no idea what the story was from beginning to end.
The only impression that the female lead gave Ye Wangshu was that she looked pure and had a good voice.
But everyone else in the audience cheered 'Lark' and 'Encore'.
"Thank you all for your kindness. I, Jiang Zhang'er, am deeply grateful. However, today's main event is for the award-winning soldiers, not our art troupe."
Jiang Zhang'er smiled at everyone, then rolled his eyes and said, "Today is the home day for the award-winning soldiers. Why don't we have the wives of the soldiers perform for everyone?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a cheer from the audience.
Ye Wangshu's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that this person was coming for him.
"Why don't we have the wife of the captain of our first-place team, Team Three, perform a show?"
Jiang Zhang'er's eyes were full of smiles, and she looked very gentle and lovely, but what she said did not take into account the thoughts of the person she named.
"I knew that this little white flower was going to do something bad." Gu Hongqi glared at Zhou Jincong, then looked at Ye Wangshu with a worried look.
Mrs. Chen, who was sitting next to them, was unhappy when she heard this and stood up with her hand raised.
"I'm the wife of the team captain, why don't you let me put on a show first!"
Jiang Zhanger smiled at Mrs. Chen and then gave up the stage.
But when he passed by Mrs. Chen, he glared at her fiercely.
Jiang Zhang'er has always liked Zhou Jincong and deliberately created several chance encounters with him. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jincong was like a piece of wood and didn't notice her at all.
It would be fine if she couldn't get such a man, but why should she let a country bumpkin who suddenly appeared get him?
