No one expected He Sizhao to say such a thing. Everyone was stunned except Jiang Chuyi.
Su Mo was the first to react. He had an expression on his face that was about to laugh but not smile, and looked extremely distorted.
Lu Qianzhi's reaction was obviously much slower. He was still staring at the two of them until He Sizhao folded all the skirts and put them away.
Jiang Chuyi didn't say anything. Someone helped her fold clothes. She just watched and didn't react to what He Sizhao said.
She grew up in a laboratory and had very limited access to entertainment programs. She didn't know that there was a species called "green tea" in the world and that it was despised by others.
She just felt that there was something strange about those words coming out of He Sizhao's mouth.
But it doesn't matter.
Anyway, He Shizhao is very skillful and can fold clothes neatly and beautifully.
After He Sizhao finished folding, Jiang Chuyi winked at Lu Qianzhi and said, "Come here and take it."
Lu Qianzhi agreed in a daze, and just as he was about to come over, both bags were picked up by He Sizhao.
"I'll do it." He Sizhao looked at Jiang Chuyi with clear eyes, his mind seemingly pure. "These are your personal clothes. I don't feel comfortable leaving them with anyone else."
"?" Lu Qianzhi reacted, took three or two steps forward, and stood in front of Jiang Chuyi, with a twitching expression on his face.
"Captain He..." When he called out this name, his expression suddenly became dazed for a moment.
He carefully studied the man before him. He was over 1.9 meters tall, no doubt about it. He was wearing the iconic black combat uniform, no doubt about it. And he had those unique amber eyes, no doubt about it.
This was indeed the He Sizhao he knew.
But why is it that everything this man says and does is so different from what is said in the legend?
Let him think that this person is someone else pretending to be him.
He Sizhao looked at him expressionlessly, the purity and innocence in his eyes instantly disappeared, and he became so cold as if those emotions had never appeared.
While the two were in a stalemate, Jiang Chuyi raised his leg and walked down.
Now the men didn't care about glaring at each other and hurried to follow.
When Jiang Chuyi was walking down the out-of-service elevator, she ran into Cheng Yi and others who were walking towards the supermarket downstairs. She saw that they were holding large and small bags with abundant gains.
"Hey," Cheng Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw her coming down alone, "Xiaoyi, where's Captain Lu?"
Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps coming from the second floor.
Several people looked up, their eyes filled with surprise.
How come there were two people when we went up, but four people when we came down?
They took the central escalator which had been out of service. The steps were too narrow to accommodate two grown men at the same time. Lu Qianzhi was about to catch up with Jiang Chuyi, but He Sizhao got there first. The corners of his mouth twitched, and when he came down he saw the astonished expressions of his companions, which gave him an even greater headache.
"Go out first, and talk later."
Jiang Chuyi glanced at the two large bags in He Sizhao's hands, and made sure that her skirts were intact, then followed him out with satisfaction.
When they got outside, the few people who were left guarding the vehicle were still maintaining the same posture as before they went in. Just as they were about to ask why it took so long, they saw two people who suddenly appeared.
When they got outside, they were obviously much more relaxed. Lu Qianzhi looked at Jiang Chuyi who was indifferent to the matter, and then looked at the two people who showed no signs of leaving, and his head swelled.
"Let me introduce..."
As soon as he calmed down his tone, Su Mo spoke with a smile.
"Hello everyone, I'm Su Mo, and this is Major General He Sizhao. From today on, we are companions."
"What?!"
"Major General?"
All the team members except Lu Qianzhi exclaimed in astonishment. They stared at He Shizhao as if they were looking at a legendary figure.
He Sizhao turned around and explained to Jiang Chuyi who had raised the question: "He made several military achievements before the end of the world, and the rank of major general was awarded at that time."
He spoke lightly, as if obtaining the rank of major general was as easy and nonchalant as picking up a cabbage from the supermarket. The faces of several grown men twisted when they heard it.
"Is it really Major General He? The one who fought his way in and out of Country A's presidential palace seven times during the war between Country A and Country M, not only breaking into the secret room but also killing the president in front of all their generals and bodyguards, and who was promoted to Major General at the age of twenty... Major General He?"
Someone spread the rumor without hesitation, causing others to be shocked.
Jiang Chuyi also looked at He Sizhao in surprise.
She only knew that he was the captain of the special forces team, but she didn't expect that he had such a powerful identity in this world.
No wonder he disappeared in the later period. With such a powerful figure in front of him, the male protagonist Lu Qianzhi would never be able to shine.
If that's the case, it's no wonder that He Sizhao dared to kill Zhou Chao directly without worrying about retaliation. Considering their identities, it might be hard to say who is suppressing whom.
Jiang Chuyi was thinking about something, and his eyes were a little dazed.
Then she noticed that a hint of pink gradually appeared on He Sizhao's handsome face, which was always calm.
Fortunately, He Sizhao turned his face away in time and no one else noticed it.
He quickly cooled the heat on his face, then quickly turned his face back, his expression still cold and unpredictable, as if he didn't care at all about his military achievement.
His face was full of calmness and he exuded a dignified demeanor.
This made others look even more adoring.
However, He Sizhao kept glancing at Jiang Chuyi from the corner of his eyes, obviously observing her reaction.
When he saw that Jiang Chuyi just glanced at him a few times and then looked away indifferently, the coldness on his face cracked for a moment, and a trace of loss quickly flashed through his eyes.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." When everyone was immersed in the admiration and awe of seeing the "legendary hero", Lu Qianzhi had something to say.
He stared at He Sizhao, but asked Su Mo: "Colonel Su, you just said you would become our companion, what do you mean?"
"Literally." Su Mo smiled with his eyes curved. "Since Xiaoyi wants to go play with you now, we don't want her to bother you too much. Besides, with our strength, we won't hold you back. What's the matter, Captain Lu, don't want to?"
He is gentle, but his words are full of profound meaning.
Lu Qianzhi was not stupid either, and he immediately understood what he meant.
He first revealed his own and He Sizhao's identities, took the lead, aroused everyone's admiration for He Sizhao, and first diluted the fear of strangers.
Now they have classified Jiang Chuyi, who has become familiar to them, into their own group, showing that they have known Jiang Chuyi for a long time, which makes them even less guarded.
The last question directly diverted the conflict, as if he, as the captain, would be unreasonable and inhuman if he disagreed.
Lu Qianzhi's mouth twitched: "With Major General He and Colonel Su joining us, we are certainly looking forward to it..."
Before he finished speaking, He Sizhao stepped forward quite consciously, opened the car door in front of Jiang Chuyi, and put his backpack and bags in the trunk.
Everyone was stunned as they looked at He Sizhao, who acted as natural as if he was at home.
"Isn't Xiaoyi taking this car?" He Sizhao raised his innocent eyes, "Then which car does Xiaoyi like? I'll put my things there."
Jiang Chuyi glanced at him and sat in the passenger seat.
He Sizhao immediately got into the back seat of the car, and Su Mo followed closely behind.
The others looked at each other, all stunned, not understanding what was going on.
"Major General He and his men knew Xiaoyi? How did they meet?"
"Isn't Xiaoyi a survivor who escaped from that base?"
"Is that really General He and Colonel Su? Why does it feel... so wrong?"
Lu Qianzhi watched numbly as these three people occupied his car. When he heard his friends' sudden gossip, he suddenly felt as if he had aged five years.
"Let's go first." He sighed, "Cheng Yi, you all go to other cars."
After redistributing the cars, Lu Qianzhi sat in the driver's seat and attracted the gazes of three people.
Lu Qianzhi: ...
I feel tired.
He started the car and glanced in the rearview mirror. Seeing that the eyes of the two people behind him were indeed focused on Jiang Chuyi, he suddenly felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, it is his fleet and his car now, otherwise the person sitting next to Jiang Chuyi might not be able to take the turn.
In this strange atmosphere, the convoy started slowly.
They originally wanted to leave Luyang City directly, but soon after they started, they received a call from the car behind them saying that their gas was running low and they needed to find a gas station first.
Lu Qianzhi looked tentatively at He Sizhao through the rearview mirror: "Major General He, do you think we should leave immediately, or find a place to refuel first?"
"This is your team, you make the decision." He Sizhao said without hesitation, "I'm just a member of your team now, you don't need to ask for my opinion."
Lu Qianzhi had a thought in his mind. He turned on the radio in the car: "Cheng Yi, where is the gas station nearby?"
If I leave here, I don’t know how far I have to run to find the next gas station. I have to take this risk when I don’t see any obvious danger.
Jiang Chuyi naturally had no objection. She had been thinking about He Sizhao's identity. Suddenly, she glanced at Su Mo next to him and became confused again.
"What about Su Mo?" she suddenly asked. "Colonel seems to be a high military rank. What did he do?"
When Su Mo heard Jiang Chuyi ask him, the smile on his face became even gentler.
"Xiaoyi, when Brother Zhao was fighting his way in and out of Country A, he wasn't the only one in the team."
Lu Qianzhi listened to the two big guys pretending to be so calm, and the expression on his face was extremely complicated.
Jiang Chuyi said "Oh".
She understood. Just like the current division of labor in the team, Su Mo and He Sizhao had known each other for a long time.
But it is obvious that Su Mo will become Lu Qianzhi's subordinate in the future.
Jiang Chuyi looked between Lu Qianzhi and Su Mo. No matter how he felt, he could only feel the subtle confrontation between them. He could not see that he would become Lu Qianzhi's younger brother in the future.
"He Sizhao, are you twenty years old now?" She saw He Sizhao again.
He Sizhao's eyes lit up when he saw that she was finally willing to talk to him: "I was just promoted to Major General when I was twenty years old. Now it's been a year."
"Twenty-one?" Jiang Chuyi had no idea and said subconsciously, "I'm only eighteen, you're so old."
There was a sudden silence in the car.
He Sizhao's voice sounded faintly.
"Being three years older is good," he said. "A man three years older is a treasure."
