Chapter 16
Neither Chen Baozhen nor Gao Jianguo knew that it was Gu Cheng who went on a blind date with Qin Yao that day. Qin Yao didn't tell anyone because she didn't want it to become big news as she still had to work in a military hospital in the future.
Head Nurse Ge and Nurse Xiao Ma did not tell anyone about this, so the matter became a secret that very few people knew about.
Qin Yao couldn't hold it in anymore and said it out jokingly to Zhou Jingjing, an outsider who knew nothing about it.
Even if she told it, Zhou Jingjing wouldn't believe it.
As expected, Zhou Jingjing burst into laughter, "Yaoyao, you may not believe it, but I am already the mother of three children."
They both laughed out loud.
Qin Yao was embarrassed for a moment when she saw Gu Cheng, but it didn't matter if she couldn't see him. There are differences between men and women anyway, so what could Gu Cheng do to her?
Even now, Qin Yao still doesn't know what kind of man Gu Cheng is, but since he can reach this position at such a young age, he is probably not a petty man.
To him, she was just a tiny episode in his life.
After that, Qin Yao no longer went with Zhou Jingjing to meet the "chief instructor". She ran in the sunset. Although she looked cute with her fat, she wished she could get rid of the fat as soon as possible and return to her slim figure.
Gu Cheng stood on the third floor and watched her running.
In the setting sun, she looked like a miserable little swallow. Other swallows were light and could travel easily from south to north. They migrated south in winter and north in summer, but she, a fat little swallow, stayed there all year round and just kept circling around.
In Gu Cheng's eyes, Qin Yao ran very slowly, almost unqualified. Why did she run? Gu Cheng never thought she would last so long.
Thinking back to Qin Yao's gloomy expression on the boat that day, was she bothered by others mocking her for being fat?
From that day on, Qin Yao no longer liked to get close to him.
Is she feeling inferior about her fat body and afraid that others will say she is not worthy of him?
Qin Yao was tired from running and wiped the sweat off her face. She had to admit that after running, the sweat was like detoxification and it was very comfortable. She was just about to find a place to stretch when a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of her.
Gu Cheng stood in front of her.
She didn't go to meet other people's chief instructor by chance, but was met by other people's chief instructor by chance.
Instructor Gu had a stern expression on his face. He didn't say anything, but just handed over a folded white paper.
Qin Yao took it puzzled. Gu Cheng glanced at her and left.
"A man who comes and goes like the wind." Qin Yao shook her head, wondering if it was her best friend who asked Captain Gu to take care of her?
Qin Yao picked up the white towel to wipe her face, opened the white paper in her hand, and was stunned by the three lines of words.
"Twenty-eight, not even one round yet."
"You are like a star on the sea."
“You can see it every night.”
Qin Yao looked confused, as if what she was holding in her hand was not a piece of light white paper, but a heavy hot potato.
It was dark, and even with the night light on, everything was still foggy and blurry. Qin Yao couldn't believe it, so she walked under the light, rubbed her eyes, and read the three lines of words again. The words did not disappear.
She could understand the first sentence, but why did the next two sentences become more and more magical?
The font above uses a very standard printing style of this era, and it is basically impossible to tell who wrote it. It is completely different from Gu Cheng's signature that I saw last time.
If he hadn't given it personally, and the first sentence revealed his identity, Qin Yao really didn't think it was something written by Gu Cheng.
After taking a shower and changing into dry clothes, Qin Yao sat in the classroom for night classes, but she still couldn't figure out what the white paper meant.
Is that what she meant?
Gu Cheng wrote a love letter to her? Oh no, love poetry!
Qin Yao looked at the three lines of words on the paper again. She didn't feel sweet, but creepy.
She asked Zhou Jingjing beside her: "Am I like a star on the sea?"
We see each other every night. Is it that annoying?
Zhou Jingjing was puzzled: "Qin Yao, you are a mermaid."
Qin Yao: “…”
After that day, Qin Yao met Gu Cheng several more times, and each time she received a new note from the cold-faced instructor.
The note was folded several times, leaving only three lines of small printed words in the middle of the huge blank space.
The last time was:
"A swallow flew into my dream."
"It was raining."
"It fell on my shoulder."
This time it is:
“The tide is rising and the tide is falling.”
"The beach is full of your footprints."
“It can’t be washed away.”
…
Is he a new age stream-of-consciousness romantic poet? The words used are very straightforward, so straightforward that it makes one's scalp tingle.
After nearly three months of training, the accumulated notes could fill a small candy box.
Qin Yao did not stop him. She just wanted to see how awkward the sentences this guy Gu Cheng could write could be.
Every time they met, he had a cold and handsome face, like an indifferent little boy, and put a coin into the piggy bank in front of him named "Qin Yao".
Qin Yao took his note and was very stubborn. She didn't check Gu Cheng's impression of her in the past three months.
It’s hard to tell what he’s afraid of.
I'm afraid it will turn out to be a negative number.
Something like "He suspects you are a spy and throws you bait to lure you into the trap."
Or it could be "This chick doesn't reply to messages yet, wait till she takes the bait and then play with her feelings."
…
How could a normal person write love poems in this kind of printed style without leaving any room for suspicion? If Gu Cheng himself denies it, no one can claim that these notes were written by him.
What a cunning man.

With the desk lamp on, all of Gu Cheng's brain cells were working together. He had a very good brain since he was a child, and his memory was better than that of ordinary people. He couldn't say that he had a photographic memory, but it was almost there.
Especially after joining the army, he received special shorthand training, and thousands of equipment model parameters were remembered very firmly and clearly in his mind. He could be said to be a "living textbook".
He has always trusted his brain, but recently he has been feeling a bit overwhelmed.
He can remember any complex data, so why can't he put together a three-line sentence?
“What’s going on in a woman’s head?”
Why did this girl remain indifferent even after receiving so many notes from him? She accepted them every time and didn't refuse.
According to what Gao Jianguo said, after hearing so many "sweet words", the beautiful girl in the village gave up everything and decided to marry a second-rate guy and have two kids.
Even though he didn't sing it, isn't it the same if he wrote it down?
Gu Cheng rubbed his brows and racked his brains. He finally thought of three sentences and wrote them down. He looked around. It was quiet and silent, without any sign of outsiders.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his face still as cold and handsome as ice, but the fire had already burned his ears red.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Captain Gu, you've been too tired these days." The person outside the door asked with concern. In the past, Gu Cheng always looked calm and at ease when facing any major task, but during this period, he showed a solemn look from time to time, which made people worry about his health.
"Cough——" Gu Cheng pretended to cough.
"Captain Gu, you are not young anymore. You are different from those 17 or 18-year-old boys out there. You should take good care of yourself."
Gu Cheng's face darkened.
Is he that old?

After the short training, Qin Yao lost weight. Her figure became slender and well-proportioned, with a small face the size of a palm. Her skin was a little darker than before, but still the whitest among the group of girls. She had distinctive facial features and looked incredibly beautiful in an ordinary sailor training uniform.
Instructor Li watched the changes in Qin Yao during this period of time. She thought it was a miracle, and she also saw the hard work and sweat of this little girl. When the final comprehensive results came out, Qin Yao ranked first.
Whether it is physical fitness performance, academic performance or professional course performance, Qin Yao may not be the best, but she is outstanding in everything and the best overall.
As expected of a girl from a big city, her academic performance is the best, followed by professional courses. Her physical fitness is not so good, but she has lost a lot of weight!
She was transformed from a plump and fat beauty of the Tang Dynasty into a heroic and stunningly beautiful woman.
Many people in this training area have heard of Qin Yao's reputation, and many male soldiers come to see her.
"Qin Yao, you are really a miracle."
Zhou Jingjing said the most exaggerated thing: "If I hadn't seen the changes in you in the past two months with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it."
"We all became uglier, but you became prettier!"
Qin Yao couldn't help laughing: "Don't talk nonsense."
The two chatted and laughed, and Tian Shuyun threw the mirror aside not far away. Her overall score was at the bottom, and if it weren't for her cousin's intercession, she would have been rejected.
The other people who were hired packed up and prepared to rotate and study and work in the military hospital, but Qin Yao did so well in the exam that she got first place in the overall score. She and another girl who ranked second were going to board a training ship to complete a transport mission. They were not sure what the specific mission was, they only learned some maritime medical knowledge from the veteran military doctor in the medical room.
The "X-ray" skill that Qin Yao obtained through the favorability system helped her to gain an advantage in medical practice. At first, she couldn't bear to look at it, but later she got used to it and could look at those internal organs without changing her expression.
However, her "perspective" time is not long. There are only two hours left now. Only by staying with Chen Baozhen can she have a chance to get a longer time.
Qin Yao had thought about conquering another person to get a favorability gift of 80 or 90 points, but is there really such a thing as "treating everyone equally" in the world?
Chen Baozhen regards her as her best friend in the world, but now that she has developed more good friends, can she still maintain her previous friendship? There aren't that many good things happening around sleeping together.
Keep this relationship going.
Qin Yao does not want to rely too much on the so-called golden finger, she prefers to believe in her own abilities. The abilities you have learned belong to you and cannot be taken away from you. They will remain in your body forever and there is no time limit.
The sea breeze was blowing, and Qin Yao changed into a new sailor suit, which was white on top and blue on the bottom, with baggy pants, a pullover top, and a tight collar. Such clothes made it convenient to move around and gave a sense of security.
Now Qin Yao has theoretically mastered the skill of turning her pants into a lifebuoy. At least she has the lifebuoy with her all the time, which gives her psychological comfort when she gets on the boat without having to worry about falling into the sea.
If she really fell into the sea, she would not be able to save herself by swimming alone. Her doggy paddle might only be enough for her to take off her pants and make a swimming ring.
Although the description may not sound very elegant, anything can be done as long as it can save lives.
She and another young girl got on the boat. There was a row of people standing on the deck. She saluted the man in military uniform who was leading the group, and he saluted her in return.
The sea breeze blew up his snow-white clothes. Qin Yao looked at him expressionlessly and really wanted to utter one word: pretending.
