"It's almost time. I have to go back to cook for Wang Ye. I guess your battalion commander will be taking a lunch break soon. Let's go back together!" Bai Cuiping suggested. She was not at ease leaving Zheng Xinyi here alone.
"Okay." After the words fell, Zheng Xinyi turned around and left with her.
After separating from Bai Cuiping, Zheng Xinyi looked up and was stunned. Huang Lei had appeared at her doorstep out of nowhere. He walked a few steps forward and asked, "Huang Lei, when did you get here?"
"Xinyi, the battalion commander needs to work overtime training at noon and can't have lunch with you, so let me accompany you to the army canteen to get food." Huang Lei said everything.
"Oh! Let's go then!" Zheng Xinyi said gracefully.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them ran towards the cafeteria side by side. There were quite a lot of people in the cafeteria, but everyone was queuing in a very orderly manner.
"Xinyi, let's line up here? There are fewer people here." Huang Lei saw that the lines at the three meal times were quite long, and this one was slightly better.
Zheng Xinyi smiled and nodded at her, then stood in front of Huang Lei, waiting for her meal.
The pace of progress was quite fast. Inexplicably, Zheng Xinyi felt that there was a familiar figure in the next team. Looking around, she saw that the familiar figure was staring at her. She was none other than Xiao Ying from the Art Department.
Zheng Xinyi tightened her grip on the lunch box. It was true that enemies often meet in a narrow road. The more you don't want to meet someone, the more likely you are to run into them.
The front had already started to move forward, but Zheng Xinyi stood there like a statue.
After a moment, Huang Lei fainted and reached out to pat her shoulder gently: "Xinyi, what's wrong with you?"
Zheng Xinyi came to her senses and saw that she had fallen far behind the people in front. She ignored Xiao Ying and passed by her and chased after her.
After waiting in line for half a day, the food finally arrived. Glancing at those who were still queuing for food, Huang Lei happily took a big mouthful of food: "Xinyi, it's a good thing we came early. Look, there are more people waiting for food now."
"Well! Huang Lei, Haoyu is training overtime at noon. Doesn't he need to eat?" Zheng Xinyi asked with concern.
"Don't worry, I've already sent him two buns." Huang Lei said with an expression that said, "I'm so loyal, how could I let my brother go hungry."
"Isn't this Captain Cheng's wife? Why is she having lunch with Doctor Huang? Where is Captain Cheng?" Xiao Ying came over with the freshly prepared meal and asked with a smile.
"Oh! The battalion commander had something to do at noon, and my sister-in-law just arrived and is not familiar with the army, so I brought her to the cafeteria to get food." Huang Lei was afraid of being gossiped about, so he quickly explained.
"Didn't Bai Cuiping take my sister-in-law to familiarize herself with the route this morning? Why is she asking Dr. Huang to have lunch with you now?" Xiao Ying said unhappily.
"Xiao Ying, what nonsense are you talking about? Xinyi and I have known each other for a long time." Huang Lei became unhappy when he heard this and immediately retorted.
Just as Xiao Ying was about to speak again, a girl carrying a lunch box suddenly ran over and sat directly between Zheng Xinyi and Huang Lei: "Xiao Ying, this is the army, and she is the wife of Captain Cheng. There are some things you can say casually, but there are also some things you can't say casually."
From beginning to end, Zheng Xinyi didn't say a word. For someone like Xiao Ying, the best way is to talk less and pay less attention to her. Otherwise, the more you argue with her, the more excited she will be.
"Sister-in-law, I forgot to tell you that our show will be on next Monday. I hope you can prepare well." Xiao Ying said gritting her teeth.
Zheng Xinyi looked at her with disdain, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Okay, I understand."
After she finished speaking, Xiao Ying rolled her eyes at them and turned away.
