Chapter 355 Clam Oil
"What's wrong with him?" Ji Lianqi's voice suddenly became tense.
"You, don't be so nervous! Things are not what you think." Ye Ying comforted: "The situation sounds okay, I feel it should be..."
"I hope so." Ji Lianqi sighed and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of calling them?"
"Weren't you in Zhurihe for some combat training? I thought you didn't have time to call them, so, well, that's what happened."
Ye Ying didn't elaborate; she didn't want to be so sentimental.
Ji Lianqi suddenly fell silent again.
Although Ye Ying said it lightly, he actually understood it.
Even though I have thousands of words in my heart, only three words come out of my mouth: "Thank you".
As for the rest, let’s talk about it when we get back.
His words of thanks stunned Ye Ying. Why was this guy so reserved?
Before she could say anything, he said anxiously, "Let's stop here first. I have five minutes left. I'll make a quick call home."
"Hey, that..."
Before Ye Ying wanted to say something, the person on the other end had already hung up the phone.
They finally got through to each other on the phone, but before they could even exchange two sentences, it was over. It was impossible to say that she had no resentment in her heart.
But given his identity, she had no choice but to go back in confusion.
On the other side, Ji Lianqi used a brief five-minute conversation with his parents and then hurried back to the camp, as he had a night operation half an hour later.
They spent nearly half a month in the desert.
In addition to the vast grassland, there is also yellow sand all over the sky, and sandstorms are common.
After staying there for a while, my hands and face became dry and cracked, and several layers of skin peeled off. The conditions were very harsh.
He took out the "clam oil" that Ye Ying had stuffed into his bag on the eve of his departure, hesitated for a moment, and opened it.
It is made of two small pieces of shells and contains a white paste.
Ye Ying said that this is called clam oil, which can prevent skin damage and will definitely be useful in the desert where you are exposed to wind and sun every day.
He just smiled and said, "This is something for women. Men don't need to be like women, especially since I'm a soldier. If I use this, people will laugh at me."
But Ye Ying insisted that he take the "clam oil" with him and forced it into his bag.
Now looking at this delicate and small shell, it seems quite pleasing to the eye.
He applied a little with his finger and was about to wipe it on the peeling area when Ye Ning suddenly came in.
Ji Lianqi hurriedly stuffed the clam oil into his pocket.
"What are you doing? Are you sneaking around and doing something shameful behind my back?" Ye Ning teased.
He is not much better.
Not only did he get tanned, but his skin peeled even more severely than Ji Lianqi's.
Ji Lianqi shook his head, stood up and poured Ye Ning a glass of water, "Nothing, aren't we preparing for a night operation? Why are you running over here?"
As he turned around, the clam oil in his pocket accidentally fell out.
Ye Ning picked it up quickly.
"Oh my god, you're getting too hypocritical? You're secretly using this woman's thing?"
"Give it back to me." Ji Lianqi reached out to grab it without saying a word.
"No." Ye Ning dodged cleverly, "Let me use it first before I give it back to you."
As he spoke, he opened the clam oil.
"Give it back to me!" Ji Lianqi frowned and quickly snatched the things back.
Ye Ning's arm was restrained, and he looked at Ji Lianqi in disbelief: "Oh my god, Ji Lianqi, are you really that serious? It's just a piece of clam oil, why do you think it's a treasure?"
"This crap is not worth the money!"
"You don't understand." Ji Lianqi stuffed the things back into his pocket without looking up.
Ye Ning sneered disdainfully: "What don't I understand? How could I not know that this was given to you by my asshole sister?"
"Just know it."
"Tsk, you two... forget it, I can't say that about my sister and brother-in-law." Ye Ning immediately stopped complaining and suddenly looked a little depressed, "Hey, seeing that all of you have wives, even Lin Jie has found one, so I'm the only one left."
"Didn't you say you weren't in a hurry?" Ji Lianqi raised his eyebrows.
"It's not urgent, but I feel uncomfortable watching you guys showing off your affection in front of me."
"Didn't Political Commissar He introduce a girl to you? You even showed us her photo."
Speaking of this, Ye Ning had even more headaches.
The girl got along fine at first, but one time they were late for a date and the girl said she couldn't go home. He thought he couldn't let her out on the streets, so he took the girl to a hotel and went home after making arrangements for her.
A few days later, when I tried to make a date with the girl again, it was no longer possible.
When asked about He Siting, she just said perfunctorily: "It's not appropriate."
He still doesn't understand what the problem is. How could this person just disappear like that?
"Mr. Ji, tell me, what happened to that girl?"
Ji Lianqi shook his head seriously: "If you don't know, I don't know either."
At this time, a hearty laugh came from outside the door: "Ye Ning, I won't say anything else, but you really deserve to be single."
He Peng walked in quickly with a smile on his face. "The Blue Army is almost at the door, why are you two still wasting time here? Hurry up, Hao Yonggang asked me to call you."
The three of them looked at each other, put on their military caps, and hurried out.
As soon as he arrived at the training base, yellow sand hit his face and Ye Ning swallowed several mouthfuls of sand.
Tonight is another tough battle.
The next day, Ye Ying woke up and found that she seemed to be sick.
Her throat was smoking, her muscles ached, her head hurt terribly when she shook her head, and she felt chills. She had a fever.
This symptom is definitely a viral cold. It may be due to the change of seasons and I caught a cold.
I've been wearing it for more than a year, and this is the first time I've had a fever, and it seems to be quite serious.
My throat felt like it was cut by a knife, and it hurt terribly every time I swallowed.
She struggled to get up from the bed and almost lost her balance.
I shook the kettle, wanting to pour a glass of water to moisten my burning throat, but there was not even a drop of water.
Putting the kettle down slowly, Ye Ying had to put on her clothes with great difficulty and took the kettle out.
It is said that people tend to become psychologically fragile when they are sick. When she felt like she would be scalded by boiling water, she suddenly felt lonely and helpless.
Ye Ying stared at the water bottle that fell to the ground and kicked it irritably.
The kettle rolled further.
She suddenly felt a little regretful and went to pick up the kettle. Only to find that the lining was broken and it was unusable.
She had no choice but to go back and take out the military water bottle that Ji Lianqi used during his daily work.
As soon as she saw the military water bottle, Ye Ying felt even worse.
