Meng Qidi took a shower and changed into clean clothes. She hadn't showered for several days in the car, so her body was greasy.
"Where?"
Meng Qidi locked the door and went downstairs. Ling Xiao was standing in the yard downstairs. Under the moonlight, the yard was quiet.
There weren't many people in the family building to begin with, so naturally they all went to join in the fun of the two troops' get-together.
"Come with me." Ling Xiao stretched out his hand and looked at Meng Qidi.
Meng Qidi hesitated for a moment, but after a moment she gave up and put it on.
They have slept in the same bed, it's just holding hands, he is not shy, why should she be shy.
Originally Ling Xiao really didn't expect that she would extend her hand, but now when he held the slightly cold little hand, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
As he walked towards the social gathering with Meng Qidi, he hummed a song unconsciously.
Meng Qidi pricked up her ears curiously, and heard what Ling Xiao was singing. The corners of her mouth twitched, "A green flower in the army..."
Well……
The association is on the westernmost side of the playground, and the family building is on the east side, which is quite a distance to walk.
"Ling Xiao, will everything be over by the time we get there?" Meng Qidi asked. Probably to cooperate with her, Ling Xiao took small steps, making the two of them walk slowly, as if they were taking a stroll.
At this snail's pace, how long will it take to get there...
"No, the best part of the sorority is yet to come."
Meng Qidi raised her eyebrows, "Oh, you know all this? It seems like you have participated in many social gatherings? Then you have high standards, don't you like any girl?"
She even suspected that if she hadn't been so shameless, he wouldn't have been able to find a wife.
When she first found Ling Xiao after her rebirth, she almost treated him as a tool.
The more he gets along with her now, the more he feels that in his previous life, even if his leg couldn't be cured, he probably wouldn't look down on Meng Yuzhen...
Ling Xiao coughed lightly, "It's mainly because we didn't see eye to eye."
"Eh..." Meng Qidi said disdainfully, "You haven't even made eye contact with me yet. It would be strange if the people in the art troupe didn't dislike you..."
"So this is called self-awareness." To be honest, although he felt that the female soldiers in the art troupe looked familiar, he really didn't remember any of their names...
Meng Qidi was amused. "You are quite self-aware. Aren't you afraid that I will dislike you too?"
"So, I'm trying not to let you dislike me."
"Then you work hard." Meng Qidi snorted, he was confident.
The two arrived late, and the social gathering had already begun. There was singing and dancing on the stage, and thunderous applause and cheers from the audience.
Ling Xiao was at a leadership level and was assigned an independent front-row seat.
Because it was a social gathering, originally intended for singles in the army to find partners, so the seats were not only for the recruits and the art troupe to sit together, but were even mixed up, so they could sit anywhere...
"Sister-in-law, I thought you weren't coming." Ling Jinyue saw Meng Qidi and greeted her excitedly.
Her seat was Shen Xing's, and officers usually had a family seat in the front row.
"I overslept, and your brother Xiao didn't call me. I took a shower and came out, so it was late."
Meng Qidi glanced around and sat down next to Ling Jinyue.
Maybe they’re afraid people will sit in the wrong seat, so each seat has a name?
Ling Xiao glanced at the female soldiers from the art troupe sitting next to him, and then looked at Meng Qidi who was talking to Jin Yue and didn't care about herself.
Knowing that his daughter-in-law had forgotten about him, Ling Xiao sighed and sat down, but he moved his chair a little closer to Meng Qidi.
A female soldier next to him turned around and saw Ling Xiao, who had arrived late. She was surprised and asked, "Captain Ling, why are you here so late?"
Ling Xiao's eyes, which were originally full of tenderness, had become indifferent when he turned around. He nodded politely to the female soldier, "Platoon Leader Qian, what's the matter?"
Qian Wenxi covered her mouth and said coquettishly, "Captain Ling, I've told you so many times to call me Wenxi. It's nothing. The social gathering has already started. I'm afraid that Captain Ling won't be able to make it."
Qian Wenxi's voice was gentle and his eyes were eager.
"It took a while."
The light was dim and Ling Xiao couldn't see anything at all. Even if he saw it, he probably didn't pay attention.
He suddenly turned around, stretched out his hand and brought Meng Qidi, who was talking to Ling Jinyue, over, with a bit of show-off.
"By the way, Captain Qian, this is my wife. Isn't she pretty?"
Although he was not very familiar with the female comrades in the art troupe, it did not stop him from showing off. He suddenly understood why Mr. Zhao liked to show off his students every day. It gave him a special sense of accomplishment!
Ling Xiao has a wife? Qian Wenxi was stunned. She hadn't been here for only half a year. Did he go back home to get married during the Chinese New Year?
No, he had an accident half a year ago, and he probably got married in his hometown at that time.
She's just a country girl, what kind of power can she have...
Qian Wenxi looked up at the extremely beautiful woman next to Ling Xiao and was stunned.
Meng Qidi was talking to Ling Jinyue when she was inexplicably brought over by Ling Xiao. When she raised her eyes, she saw a beautiful face and was stunned.
The women in this art troupe are pretty, but their eyes are a little dull.
Not interested in caring about strangers, she calmly withdrew her gaze and looked up at Ling Xiao, "What's wrong?"
Facing Meng Qidi's puzzled eyes, Ling Xiao coughed lightly, "I just wanted to introduce you to others. You came here with me, so how could you keep talking to Jin Yue?"
Ling Xiao's subsequent words were full of grievance, as it was a rare opportunity for him to show off his wife.
Meng Qidi slapped him in anger, "I'm asking Jin Yue about something, don't just introduce me, at least introduce her as well, otherwise I won't know her, right?"
"No need to know him..." Ling Xiao paused as he felt a pain in his waist. "Is this the platoon leader of the art troupe? Shen Xing, come here."
Ling Xiao shouted to Shen Xing who was watching carefully. He only knew that the woman was Platoon Leader Qian, and he didn't know anything else...
It was not until Shen Xing introduced them that Qian Wenxi came back to her senses. Looking at the white hand extended by the woman opposite her, she took a deep breath and forced a smile on her face, "Hello, sister-in-law. Nice to meet you."
Qian Wenxi shook his hand and quickly pulled it back.
Meng Qidi didn't think much about it. After taking her hand back, she asked with a smile, "Platoon Leader Qian, may I ask what are the conditions for recruiting people for your art troupe?"
Qian Wenxi asked, "Do you want to join the art troupe?"
"Me? Not me, but my sister. Your art troupe often organizes social gatherings, and I want my sister to go in and find a date."
Qian Wenxi...
She suspected that the woman did it on purpose. She must have discovered her feelings for Ling Xiao, so she took the opportunity to warn her.
She's not here to act as a matchmaker...
Ling Jinyue, who was standing by, blushed with shame and quickly pulled Meng Qidi's sleeve, "Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense, I'm still young."
Ling Xiao nodded in agreement, "Your sister-in-law is right. You are not young anymore, it's time to find a partner."
Otherwise he would be like he is still breastfeeding and stick to Xiaoqi every day. She is his wife!
"Sister-in-law, Brother Xiao dislikes me."
The two of them interrupted the conversation with one sentence each. The platoon leader Qian on the opposite side did not say anything, and Meng Qidi no longer wanted Ling Jinyue to join the art troupe.
Seeing that he was no longer needed, Shen Xing quickly sat back down, but he kept glancing at Ling Jinyue from time to time.
