Gu Jianing closed his eyes and tried to hypnotize himself to sleep. After a long while, he opened his eyes reluctantly.
She murmured helplessly: "Gu Jianing, you are no longer a child. Do you still need someone to accompany you to sleep before you can fall asleep?"
"In the past seventeen years at home, you also slept alone, and slept well."
“Adapt, adapt.”
He tossed and turned until the second half of the night when Gu Jianing finally fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, Sheng Zexi and his comrades stopped for a rest in a remote village. Because they were in a hurry on the road, all the comrades fell asleep.
Sheng Zexi looked out the window with his hands behind his back, also missing his young wife in the military region.
I don’t know if my wife sleeps well when he is not around. What if she kicks off the quilt and catches a cold?
Before, he was the one helping to tuck in the quilt, but now Ningning is the only one left.
Northwest Army Flag, when he woke up the next day, Gu Jianing found that most of the quilt had fallen under the kang, and he also found that his nose was a little blocked.
But after she got up and walked around for a while, she felt better.
She knew that she must have had a bad sleeping posture last night and kicked off the quilt again, but fortunately, she had the pregnancy comfort pills given by the system, which ensured that she would not get sick throughout her pregnancy.
Gu Jianing discovered that habits are really scary things.
In just a few months, she adapted to life with Sheng Zexi, or rather, Sheng Zexi had infiltrated every aspect of her life.
Nowadays, many times, when she does something or thinks of something, she will subconsciously call out "Xi Ge".
Whenever the door rang, she always wondered if someone had completed his mission and returned.
Unfortunately, I am disappointed every time.
However, Gu Jianing had been trying hard to comfort herself until the fifth night after Sheng Zexi left. She slept hugging Sheng Zexi's pillow, but when she smelled the familiar scent on the pillow, she could no longer hold back her tears.
Gu Jianing pursed her lips and her voice was a little choked, as if she was complaining about her grievances to the pillow in her arms as if it were Sheng Zexi.
"When will you be back?"
"This pillow, if you haven't used it for a few days, it no longer smells like you."
"Brother Xi, I miss you, please come back soon."
After hugging the pillow and muttering for a long time, Gu Jianing finally fell into a sleepy state with a crystal tear hanging from the corner of her eye.
At this time, Sheng Zexi in the distance had just completed a battle and achieved success.
Moreover, Sheng Zexi always ran in the front, made the greatest contributions, and killed the most enemies.
At this time, during the rest after the battle, comrades praised Sheng Zexi for his bravery and said that it was only Sheng Zexi who rushed to the front, otherwise they might have been injured or shot.
Sheng Zexi raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
In fact, Sheng Zexi did this because of the invisible bulletproof vest he was wearing.
The day before yesterday, they encountered an ambush. At that time, for the sake of his comrades, the bullet from the enemy went directly to Sheng Zexi's chest and heart.
At that time, Sheng Zexi had no time to react.
In that situation, the only thing he could do was to try to avoid the heart.
But getting shot is inevitable.
In fact, Sheng Zexi was not shot.
When the bullet was about 5 centimeters away from Sheng Zexi's chest, it suddenly fell to the ground as if it encountered some obstacle.
Only Sheng Zexi saw that magical scene.
Sheng Zexi's shock was naturally beyond words.
He immediately realized that it was the invisible bulletproof vest that Ningning mentioned that was working.
Although he believed Ningning's words, what she said was not as real and shocking as what he saw with his own eyes.
Throughout the whole process, Sheng Zexi didn't feel anything else, nor did he discover anything else.
He remembered what Ningning said, that this invisible bulletproof suit covered his entire body, including his head, body, hands and feet.
Moreover, the number of bulletproof times is unlimited. As long as Ningning doesn't let her take off the bulletproof vest, the bulletproof vest will always be effective.
Sheng Zexi thought: If that's the case, then is he invincible in the hail of bullets? Then can he rush forward a little further?
Thinking so, Sheng Zexi also did so.
So, Sheng Zexi rushed to the front.
Just when his comrades were worried that Sheng Zexi might be injured or killed in such a hail of bullets, unexpectedly, Sheng Zexi not only annihilated all the enemies, but also returned safely without any injury.
If Gu Jianing were here, she would know that in the future flash she saw, people had been sacrificed and injured in this battle.
Even Sheng Zexi was seriously injured in this battle.
And now, because Sheng Zexi was not injured and because he rushed to the front and annihilated most of the enemies, this battle not only achieved a quick victory, but also had 0 injuries and 0 sacrifices.
When everyone was praising Sheng Zexi for his bravery, if the enemies who had been annihilated could still speak at this time, they would definitely say: Yes, he is really brave, as if he was wearing a golden bell and an iron shirt, the bullets fell off before they even reached him. Then what are they fighting for? Who wouldn't be brave like this? What are they fighting for? Just when he reacted, he was shot in the head.
In order to stop herself from missing Sheng Zexi so much, Gu Jianing had to keep herself busy.
During the day, I go to training classes. At night, I go into the space to study or make ointments and pills.
It turns out that being busy does have some effect, and Gu Jianing's mood has improved.
Zhang Shuwan naturally also saw that Gu Jianing missed Sheng Zexi. Sometimes when they were eating or chatting, she would see Gu Jianing in a daze, with longing in her eyes.
As someone who had experienced this, Zhang Shuwan could not help but understand that Gu Jianing was thinking about Captain Sheng.
Zhang Shuwan could only comfort Gu Jianing. As military wives, their men were heroes defending their country, so they had to be braver.
"Sister Shu Wan, I understand."
In order to make Gu Jianing feel better, Zhang Shuwan would come to chat with Gu Jianing whenever she was free, and would also let Guoguo accompany her.
That day, Zhang Shuwan knocked on Gu Jianing's door. "Tonight is the Lantern Festival. The Beijing Art Troupe will be performing tonight. Do you want to go and watch? Bring a message. Let's go together."
"I heard that they will finish their performance tonight and leave tomorrow."
Gu Jianing thought for a moment and nodded, "Then let's go together."
She hasn’t settled the score with Li Shuyao about the human trafficker incident last time, and Gu Jianing is very vindictive.
Soon, it was night. Gu Jianing and Zhang Shuwan were walking with Guoguo at the back, while Lin Xing was walking in front. They soon arrived at the auditorium.
Sitting in the auditorium, Gu Jianing couldn't help but think that the last time she came here was with Sheng Zexi, but this time, Brother Xi was not around.
Suppressing the sadness in his heart, Gu Jianing leaned over to chat with Zhang Shuwan while searching for something in the system's exchange mall.
