Chen Chunyan turned around in surprise and found that the person standing behind her was Liu Jincai:
"...Captain Liu?"
She and Liu Jincai had only exchanged a few words. First of all, his big and strong appearance did not appeal to her.
What's more, what does he mean by that? What does he mean by saying he thinks it's good?
Who does he think he is, judging her?
Liu Jincai looked at Chen Chunyan, whose face was flushed red, and the more he looked at her, the more he felt that she was a good person.
I was a little angry at her before because she caused the battalion commander to be seriously injured, but then I thought that the encounter with the black bear was an accident and it was not entirely her fault. In addition, she had been taking care of the battalion commander carefully day and night these days, which showed that she was a grateful person, so I gradually changed my opinion of her.
I don’t know what happened these days, but ever since I changed my mind about Chen Chunyan, I like her more and more.
She has a round face, round eyes, two thick black braids, and a big butt. She looks like she is good at giving birth. She also has a good job as a nurse. She is capable, educated, and can take care of people. She is simply the perfect marriage partner in his mind.
It’s a pity that she has been busy taking care of Captain Lu these days, and her big round eyes have hardly ever been on him.
Liu Jincai is not the kind of person who hesitates. When he found that he had a good impression of Chen Chunyan, didn't he just come over to get close to her?
Although Liu Jincai is a rough guy, he has been in Ning City for so long that he knows that the girls in these towns are different from the girls in their village. He can't just talk about marriage if he likes a girl. He needs to cultivate feelings first.
Liu Jincai grinned and said:
"You don't know yet, do you? Actually, the battalion commander and I went looking for you that day. I was the first one to jump down the slope, but after I found you, I came back to get the rope."
Chen Chunyan felt that his words were incomprehensible. Why was he telling her all this now? Was he asking her to thank him again?
Although his position was not as high as Lu Zhan's, Liu Jincai was a company commander after all. Chen Chunyan still managed to be patient and forced a smile on her face:
"Really? I was unconscious at the time and didn't know about this. Thank you, Captain Liu."
Liu Jincai saw her smiling at him and thanking him again, and he felt even happier:
"It's okay, I just feel that we are destined to be together, otherwise why would I go to find you?"
But Chen Chunyan didn't want to respond to his words at all. She just laughed dryly twice, made an excuse that she had to go in to help distribute the medicine, and hid in the tent.
Liu Jincai stood there and looked at her back with a smug look on his face. After getting to know her, he thought, "If they get to know each other better, wouldn't the relationship be cultivated after just a few more words?"
......
Just after twelve o'clock, the refuge area began to count on time.
After patiently waiting for the count to be completed, Wu Dali walked over with a shy smile and asked for leave from the soldier in charge of his team:
"Sir, I want to go to the bathroom."
After staying in the shelter for a few days, he also learned how to make reports.
The soldier didn't think much about it and just corrected:
"Go ahead, move quickly, and be careful! Next time, don't call me commander, call me comrade!"
A trace of joy flashed across Wu Dali's eyes, and he quickly agreed:
"Okay, got it, thank you comrade!"
Not far away, under a tree in the quarantine area, a few men with crew cuts were still awake when they saw a figure resembling Wu Dali trotting into the woods. They immediately and excitedly reported to Li Yuan:
"Boss, that kid is gone!"
After drinking millet porridge all day, my stomach was rumbling and I was looking forward to the meat in the evening.
In the darkness, Li Yuan was heard coughing twice. He didn't even open his eyes, but only let out a muffled "hmm" with a heavy nasal sound from his nose, as if he was about to fall asleep.
Seeing this, the men with crew cuts didn't dare to say anything more. They leaned against the trees with their arms folded and closed their eyes to rest, waiting for Wu Dali to bring back some meat to satisfy their cravings tonight.
This time Wu Dali was much braver, and the road he walked last night was much smoother to walk tonight. He ran down the mountain faster than last night.
The journey was just like last night, except for a little drizzle in the sky occasionally. We didn't see any bears or even mice, and we arrived at the water's edge smoothly.
He picked up a thick branch from the shore with ease and went to the water's edge to fish it out.
Maybe he was too nervous last night and relaxed a lot tonight. This time, as soon as he approached the water, he smelled a bad rotten smell.
He frowned and picked and chose in the water, and sure enough, he found some bloated animal carcasses piled up among the debris on the water surface. It must be these things that emitted the stench.
Wu Dali still had some common sense and knew that bloated animals were inedible. He picked and chose and finally found two drowned chickens by the water farther away.
His eyes lit up with joy and he immediately fished out the two chickens.
But this time he didn't plan to just pick it up and run back like he did last night.
When criticizing Li Yuan and others during the day, he had said that it was strictly forbidden to privately salvage animals from the flood for consumption. If he took these two chickens back, he would probably be caught red-handed like Li Yuan and others before he could even roast them.
Wu Dali had already made up his mind before he came. No matter what he caught, he would roast it on the shore and then bring some back to Li Yuan and the others to report.
Now he had caught two chickens, which was just enough for him to eat one and give one back to Li Yuan and the others to share.
He had made all the necessary preparations before coming, bringing matches, dry paper and some dry weeds with him.
He had originally planned to make a fire by the water, but the water was too damp after the heavy rain, and there was a foul smell tonight, so he moved the fire to the edge of the woods. It was still half an hour's climb from here to the refuge area, and there was no need to worry about being seen because of the high mountains and dense forests.
Wu Dali hummed a little tune while plucking the feathers of two chickens with his bare hands. It didn't matter if he couldn't pluck them cleanly, he could just roast them over the fire and they would all be cooked.
Making a fire was no problem for him. He quickly picked up some branches to build a rack, threw in some dry paper and weeds and lit them, and a simple grill was ready.
He was so happy that he pierced both chickens with branches and placed them on the fire, one on each side. He felt so happy watching the pale chicken skin slowly change color under the scorching flames.
When the chicken skin turned slightly yellow, the aroma of roasted chicken came out and kept coming into Wu Dali's nose. He was so greedy that he wanted to have a bite of it right away.
But thinking that he was still trapped in the mountains surrounded by water, with no medical care or medicine, he was afraid of getting a stomachache, so he could only swallow his saliva and wait anxiously.
The aroma of roasted chicken drifted farther and farther with the night wind. Somewhere in the dense forest not far behind him, it suddenly became extremely quiet, with only the sound of raindrops falling on the leaves.
