Chapter 50: Playing Hard to Get



He pushed Mu Qiao into the office, closed the door, and solemnly instructed, "Since the news about you going to Vice Captain Qiao's house for dinner has spread, you should ignore it and continue as before."

"Why?" Mu Qiao frowned, not understanding what Meng Qiancheng meant.

Meng Qiancheng said, "Deputy Captain Qiao didn't explain, so what are you going to explain?"

The implication is that Qiao Lubai cares so much about his reputation, but he didn't even try to clarify the matter, so why are you so anxious?

Mu Qiao thought about it and fell silent.

Seeing that she had suddenly realized something, Meng Qiancheng continued, "Qiao Lubai is a fickle person with a lot on his mind. You can't push him too hard. You have to learn how to make him anxious."

Learn to make him anxious?!

What kind of routine is this?

Mu Qiao looked at Meng Qiancheng with a pleading look.

...

...

As a close friend, Meng Qiancheng gave Mu Qiao a heartfelt suggestion, "Play hard to get!"

When it comes to feelings, Mu Qiao is a blank slate, he knows nothing but is full of passion. How is this so-called playing hard to get supposed to play?

Seeing her confused look, Meng Qiancheng scratched his head helplessly.

"Never mind, I'll help you!" Meng Qiancheng said, "Try not to be too enthusiastic towards Qiao Lubai these days. When you see him, just say hello and leave. Don't make too many eye contact with him. Just act like an ordinary colleague. Do you hear me?"

"And then?" Mu Qiao asked impatiently.

Meng Qiancheng thought back to the content of the romance novel, "Then do your own thing, in an orderly manner, just like usual."

"That's it?" Mu Qiao felt that Meng Qiancheng's playing hard to get seemed a little too bland.

If she really did that, would Deputy Captain Qiao think that she had given up liking him?

But Meng Qiancheng patted his chest and promised, "Just do as I say, and I promise you will get a handsome man."

Are you so sure?

Mu Qiao looked at him suspiciously, feeling that after doing this he and Deputy Captain Qiao would become more distant.

Unfortunately, there is no better way at the moment.

Perhaps Meng Qiancheng's tactic of playing hard to get is worth a try, maybe it will be effective.

In the next few days, when Mu Qiao saw Qiao Lubai, he would just saluted and greet him, then leave without looking back.

Qiao Lubai didn't feel anything at first, but after so many times, he began to wonder, "Didn't this woman agree to continue to like him? Why is she so cold to him all of a sudden? Is this a sign of liking someone?"

Sure enough, a tomboy’s love doesn’t last for just three minutes.

No, he had to observe her to see if she was pretending to be distant in front of him on purpose.

So, Qiao Lubai went to the training ground. Instead of practicing, he stood on the high platform, holding a telescope, searching for Mu Qiao in the huge training ground.

At this moment, Mu Qiao was doing ideological work for the new recruits at the Third Battalion Training Base.

In the past few months, Mu Qiao has been studying diligently as an instructor and finally has a new understanding of this position.

When people's concepts change and their ideological awareness becomes higher, it becomes easier to do ideological work.

Under her guidance, the camouflage soldiers of the Fourth Battalion are full of vigor and high morale, and Mu Qiao feels very proud of this.

At this moment, she used an extremely humorous and witty ideological education, winning warm applause from the recruits.

This scene happened to fall into the telescope of a deputy captain on the high platform, and his handsome face suddenly stretched long.

It turned out that she was not deliberately distancing herself from him, but she really wanted to distance herself from him.

Look how happy she is in private, and he came here to check on her because of her estrangement. It was really unnecessary.

Qiao Lubai put down the telescope angrily and walked into the camp with a sullen face.

It happened that at this time, the deputy battalion commander of the Second Battalion, Zhang Hao, came to deliver the overall performance report of the Second Battalion. This tactless man walked right into the trap.

"What kind of crappy result is this?" Qiao Lu's face was as dark as Bao Gong, and his aura was so cold that Zhang Hao shivered.

Zhang Hao felt bitter. "The overall score of the Second Battalion has clearly improved by 10% compared to last month. How come it has become shit when it comes to the deputy captain?"

"Last month, I asked for a 20% increase!" Qiao Lubai yelled, the reason for his anger.

Zhang Hao looked embarrassed and said fearlessly, "Deputy Captain Qiao, you know that the best ones in the Second Battalion have been selected by General Meng to join the Seventh Purge Team. The rest of the mediocre ones have only achieved mediocre results. A 10% improvement is already very impressive. You should..."

"Excuse!" Qiao Lubai's roar interrupted Zhang Hao's words, "During the most glorious period of the Snow Wolf's Second Battalion, all the soldiers in the battalion fought the enemy in the Black River primeval forest for three days and three nights without any casualties. Do you know why?"

"I know!" Zhang Hao was among them at that time. He was just a platoon leader at that time. Their platoon was responsible for bomb disposal and mine clearance. Under the leadership of this mine clearance expert, their platoon destroyed the enemy's minefield in just a few minutes, opening the way for the second battalion commandos to capture the enemy's heart.

"Since you know that, then tell me, what is the difference between the Second Battalion now and the Second Battalion back then?" Qiao Lubai tore the Second Battalion's performance report in his hand into two halves.

"The difference lies in the awareness of teamwork." Zhang Hao said with a serious expression, "The Second Battalion at that time focused on teamwork, and every soldier had a heart to strive for the honor of the team."

"You clearly know this, so why are you still so lax?" Qiao Lubai looked directly at Zhang Hao with sharp eyes, "Give him a clear path. If you want the Second Battalion to gather its original sense of unity, you must first strengthen its discipline. You can go to the Fourth Battalion and ask Battalion Commander Zhang Meng for advice. He will teach you how to do it."

"Yes!" Zhang Hao ran faster than a rabbit after receiving the order.

Today he finally experienced the true horror of the Thousand-Faced Fox when it showed its power.

Not long after, Mu Qiao learned that Qiao Lubai was angry with Zhang Hao.

She didn't think too much about it, and asked the messenger, "Why is Deputy Captain Qiao angry?"

"It seems that the performance of the Second Battalion is not optimistic." Camouflage also heard about it.

Mu Qiao did not make things difficult for the other person and went straight into Meng Qiancheng's office.

"Boss Meng, weren't you in charge of the Second Battalion's training this month? How come it still hasn't met Deputy Captain Qiao's requirements?" Mu Qiao asked as soon as he entered.

Meng Qiancheng was reviewing the overall training results of the Fourth Battalion. He glanced at Mu Qiao and said seriously, "The results of the Second Battalion are fine, the key is that the sense of unity is not up to standard."

"Then why is Deputy Captain Qiao so angry?" It was the first time that Mu Qiao heard that Deputy Captain Qiao was so angry with a deputy battalion commander.

Meng Qiancheng smiled but said nothing when he heard this.

Mu Qiao didn't know what he was saying, so he pressed on, "Why are you laughing? Now it's your soldiers who are being fired upon by Deputy Captain Qiao. If I were you, I'd be crying right now."

"It's all because of you." Meng Qiancheng revealed the secret.

Mu Qiao was confused, "Why are you involved with me again?"
