Xia Anyan looked out at the blue sky through the curtain at the rear of the car.
The closer you get to the north, the cooler the weather becomes.
Today is a rare good day. The sky is clear, a gentle breeze is blowing, and the surrounding area is covered with green grass. Occasionally, you can see wildflowers and even see wild rabbits passing by.
Xia Anyan really liked this scenery.
She nodded and jumped out of the car.
Perhaps because she had been sitting for a long time, or perhaps for other reasons, she almost lost her balance and fell.
Fortunately, Zhang Junan appeared just in time and helped.
The young man standing behind Xia Anyan was almost scared out of his wits.
He was at a loss for what to do – whether to help or not.
Just as he was agonizing over it, someone else made their move first, and he finally didn't have to worry about it anymore. Whew!
Zhang Jun'an frowned at Xia Anyan: "Why are you still so reckless? What if you hurt yourself?"
Xia Anyan stuck out her tongue, looking playful and cute.
She giggled and said coquettishly, "Oh, Dad, I was sitting in the car for too long and my legs got a little numb, that's why I couldn't stand up. I just wanted to get out and walk around a bit. There are so many comrades here, do you want me to embarrass myself in front of them?"
"If you want to discipline me, wait until we get back to the unit, then we can discipline you slowly. I promise I won't talk back then."
Zhang Junan found it funny.
When did he ever actually scold this girl?
Even though they are now father and daughter, he has never thought of making decisions for this girl.
I just felt that what she was doing was really too dangerous.
If he hadn't reached out to catch the person in time, they might have fallen face-first to the ground.
Such a beautiful face, it must not be injured.
Thinking of this, Zhang Junan spoke again firmly, warning, "Next time, you must keep your body steady."
“Look, there’s a rock here. If you had fallen on it, your face would have been ruined.”
Medical conditions aren't that good these days. If her face is ruined, and she's still so young, how will she live in the future?
And then there's Gu Shen. Although he's liked Ya Tou for many years, who knows if that brat is just after looks?
So, just in case, we still need to be extra careful.
"Okay, okay, I know, Dad, please stop talking."
Xia Anyan pulled Zhang Junan away, while the young comrade behind them looked pale and somewhat annoyed.
He hadn't noticed any of this; if Comrade Zhang hadn't arrived in time, his sister-in-law might really have...
He stood there motionless. When Captain Gong returned from hunting, he saw the kid standing there from afar, as if he had been frozen in place.
"You brat, what are you standing there for? Have you finished setting up everything I asked you to? I've already brought the meat, don't tell me you haven't finished yet."
After being kicked, the young man finally realized what was happening.
His face was a little pale, and he looked at his captain, as if he was about to cry.
"Captain, I...I think I just messed up."
Captain Gong's forehead vein throbbed: "What have you done now, you little rascal?"
Seeing his murderous look, the young comrade's face turned even paler.
Captain Gong rubbed his temples and handed the rabbit and pheasant in his hand to the people behind him, telling them to take care of them.
He himself pulled the young comrade aside.
With no one bothering him, he softened his tone: "Tell me, what exactly happened?"
The young man trembled slightly and stammered out what had just happened.
After he finished speaking, his eyes were already red and tears were streaming down his face: "Captain, I... shouldn't I have thought so much?"
"My sister-in-law is my sister-in-law, but she's also just an ordinary comrade. Helping comrades is something we should do, so I shouldn't overthink it, right?"
Captain Gong sighed and patted him on the shoulder.
He looked up at the sky and thought of something that happened a few years ago.
He, Gu Shen, and several other brothers went out on a mission.
At that time, their team needed a female comrade, so they applied to the women's corps unit for one to be transferred.
That woman ate and lived with them, and didn't act like a woman at all.
But they had many concerns and were hesitant, which almost led to the failure of that mission.
If that woman hadn't stood up and yelled at them, they might still be confused.
So now, he's going to tell his comrades about this.
Let them know that helping others is the right thing to do.
Even if they know the other party did it on purpose, they still have to help and save them.
Moreover, Xia Anyan didn't do it on purpose.
She and Gu Shen seem to be truly in love, so what's there to be afraid of?
Even if Gu Shen finds out, it's still because the young comrade saved Xia Anyan and prevented her face from being scratched. When he comes back, he might even have to thank this young comrade.
"Captain, I...I want to go apologize to your wife."
Captain Gong patted him on the shoulder: "Go ahead."
After figuring it out, the young man stopped being timid and hesitant.
He walked up to Xia Anyan in a very natural and confident manner and gave her a military salute.
Xia Anyan was still a little confused and didn't know where to put her hands.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry."
ah?
Xia Anyan was stunned by this sentence.
Wait, what's going on?
An apology? Why should I apologize?
“Sister-in-law, when you got out of the car just now, I actually had a chance to help you, but I was worried that it might not be a good thing to do so, so I… I’m sorry, sister-in-law, next time I encounter something like this, I will definitely not hesitate again.”
Xia Anyan suddenly realized.
She smiled.
"Oh dear, I thought it was something big, but it's just this."
“You don’t need to worry about it. I’ve already thought about it. Although I’m a little unsteady, my arm is fine, so even if I fall, I will protect myself and not get hurt.”
"There might be some scrapes, but that's unavoidable. You guys get quite a few injuries during training, and I'll be living with you in the military from now on, so isn't this even more common?"
Xia Anyan smiled gently, and the young man's face turned slightly red.
Sister-in-law Xia is so beautiful.
They're so lucky to have Commander Gu!
After speaking with Xia Anyan, the young man left.
After everyone left, Zhang Junan snorted coldly, "That kid, I wanted to say it before. He was so close to you, he could have just reached out and grabbed you, but he didn't."
"If I hadn't known that the kid meant no harm, I would have taught him a lesson on the spot."
Xia Anyan sighed helplessly, "Dad, please don't be impulsive."
