After having breakfast, it was time for the appointment with General Du. Wang Ji walked down the corridor, greeting one person after another.
"Hi!"
"Hi!"
Good morning, Wang Ji.
Good morning, Sister Huidan.
Good morning, Wang Ji!
"Good morning, Sister Hanshu."
"Hi!"
"Um……"
"Hey, hey, what are you doing?"
In the corridor, Wang Ji was suddenly grabbed. He was stunned for a moment, then turned around to look at the person who had spoken and realized... Why was he being grabbed?
Du Qiangwei frowned slightly and looked at him with a hint of reproach: "I greeted you and you just gave a perfunctory 'hmm'? So you've become this arrogant just because you won a battle?"
It turned out to be Du Qiangwei, wearing a perfectly fitted dark green uniform, with smooth, wine-red long hair, and a fair and delicate face lightly made up. She was biting her thin lower lip, looking somewhat indignant.
“Uh…” Wang Ji hesitated slightly, then thought for a moment before saying, “I’m not arrogant, I’ve always been humble to others…”
Du Qiangwei rolled her eyes speechlessly, wanting to laugh but holding it back.
"I guess I've gotten used to greeting you these past couple of days."
Wang Ji continued, "I say 'hi' to you, you say 'uh-huh', I say 'hi' again, you say 'uh-huh' again... and then suddenly you steal my line, so I subconsciously recite yours, right?"
It's like... you know the Pythagorean theorem, right? Well, it has nothing to do with that.
Please don't take offense, I am still very approachable.
Du Qiangwei's expression softened slightly upon hearing his explanation, though she remained as cold as ever. She didn't nitpick anymore, instead scoffing, "You call yourself 'I' and 'the people'... you can't even tolerate ordinary self-addresses, can you?"
She let go and stopped holding his arm.
The corridor was bustling with people in the morning, which is why so many people kept greeting Wang Ji.
This guy has a pink voice and is a walking embodiment of hormones; girls should be careful when they're with him.
“I don’t care about self-address or not, all self-address and other-address are just code names… What are you going to do? Go to the gym to work out your abs?” Wang Ji said.
"Uh... sort of." Du Qiangwei paused for a moment, then looked at Wang Ji and asked, "It's rare to see you not clinging to Qi Lin. So, you're free... to come along?"
Although Wang Ji doesn't train much, he does go to the gym. While a super soldier's body may be indestructible, muscle definition doesn't appear out of thin air.
She looked at him, her expression calm and composed.
"Du wants to see me about something..." Wang Ji tilted his head to indicate the direction he should go.
"My father... is looking for you? What's the matter?" She was somewhat surprised.
"They're not going to recruit me as their son-in-law... I'm leaving now~"
"You!" Du Qiangwei raised her hand with a hint of amusement, only to see Wang Ji slip away.
In a short while, they disappeared from sight.
She watched him leave with amusement, but her smile gradually faded as he turned the corner.
I stood quietly in the corridor for a while before leaving.
The rising sun outside the window resembled the blazing sun of yesterday, reminding her of the bright moonlight of last night.
The moon was very bright last night... but its brightness didn't matter.
...
Juxia
A small meeting room that felt somewhat familiar.
"Hehe, our hero has arrived!"
A hearty laugh greeted him as he entered the room. Wang Ji remained calm and composed, offering his greetings before taking his seat at Lianfeng's prompting.
There weren't many people in front of him, but Wang Ji recognized them all: Du Kao, Huang Ze, Lian Feng, and Wang Ji himself, making a total of four people.
"To help you relax, we specially invited Chief Huang Ze. What do you think?" Lianfeng asked Wang Ji to sit next to her, with Huang Ze and Du Kao opposite them.
She smiled gently as she looked at Wang Ji, though her words still carried a hint of teasing.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Commander,” Wang Ji smiled slightly. “I want to say that I’ve always been very relaxed. The environment is easy, the officers are kind, and I don’t even need to participate in training. Sometimes I feel a little guilty.”
"Hehehe..." As soon as he finished speaking, Dukao laughed at Huang Ze, "What he said is true, but his relaxation... Anyone with his ability can relax anywhere!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Ji simply smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
"Hmm..." The usually stern-faced old man Huang Ze also showed some kindness as he looked at Wang Ji and nodded with satisfaction.
"Some things are better left unsaid," the old garrison commander said bluntly, without any preamble.
"The country still trusts Xiao Du... ah, Du and the others very much." When it came to serious matters, the old man's face became serious again, a seriousness that came naturally.
"As for you, everyone has always been very satisfied with you."
Although there were some misunderstandings when we first asked you to come back, and you were a little wary, everyone knows about your later statements. In fact, I believe that everyone, including you, had a very positive and sincere attitude in this regard.
That is, to unite and fight against interstellar invasion.
Huang Ze nodded: "I believe the misunderstanding has been cleared up. There's no need to believe in aliens or the child's naiveté. We don't need to bring it up again."
The nation trusts them, and it trusts you too.
His words were so direct that Wang Ji also became serious, nodded, and remained silent.
"It's like some kind of relaxing environment where you're not involved in training or anything, which at least seems right for now."
You have the ability and the ideas.
He looked at Wang Ji seriously and said, "For someone with ideas, too much guidance can be a constraint. I think you can still choose the way you like in the future."
