"I haven't seen Chuchu for a long time. I feel like she has become even more beautiful. Of course, she was also very beautiful before..."
“…”
Wei Zhao spoke in his ear, and Lu Huaiyan became more and more annoyed. He turned his head suddenly and glanced at him coldly.
The moonlight was bright and clear, shining on the two of them, and the smile on Wei Zhao's face could be seen clearly.
So the purpose of his trip here was to tell him about Jiang Xiachu?
Lu Huaiyan couldn't listen any longer and interrupted him coldly:
"Shut up."
After saying that, without waiting for Wei Zhao to reply, Lu Huaiyan left without even glancing at him.
Wei Zhao watched his back as he left in the darkness and did not chase after him.
When Lu Huaiyan's figure disappeared, he folded his arms and chuckled.
A hint of obscure emotion flashed across the man's dark eyes, and his gaze gradually turned cold.
-
As soon as he stepped into the camp, the communicator was standing not far away, looking around. When he saw Lu Huaiyan, he hurried over.
"Chief."
As soon as he arrived in front of Lu Huaiyan, the communicator saluted him and then reported: "The troops have issued an order for you to lead the team for field training. Chief of Staff Zhang is waiting for you in the office and has something to say to you."
Lu Huaiyan frowned and nodded: "Okay, I understand."
After the messenger delivered the message, he immediately went to work, and Lu Huaiyan went directly to Staff Officer Zhang's office.
“Boom boom boom—”
The door was open, but as soon as he arrived at the office door, Lu Huaiyan raised his hand and knocked on the door.
Soon, a deep male voice was heard from inside.
When Staff Officer Zhang looked up, he saw Lu Huaiyan standing at the door: "Huaiyan, you're back? Come in!"
Staff Officer Zhang was a man in his forties, wearing a neat military uniform. His army green shirt was neat and clean, with every button fastened tightly.
His uniform was a little washed out, but the star emblem on his shoulder was still shiny.
Lu Huaiyan strode into the office.
Zhang Jiancheng pointed to the chair opposite him, his expression serious: "Come, sit down."
When Lu Huaiyan sat down, Zhang Jiancheng exhaled and slowly said, "Did Xiao Li tell you about the field training?"
Lu Huaiyan nodded: "Yeah."
Zhang Jiancheng continued, "The battle on the front line is very intense. Intelligence is coming in like snowflakes, and it's hard to tell what's true and what's false. We have been having frictions and small-scale conflicts on the border with our neighboring countries for the past few years. The war could spread to our territory at any time, and the people over there are having a hard time."
Zhang Jiancheng couldn't help but sighed, and then said: "What the higher-ups mean is that we have to be ready to provide support at any time. We never know when the order will come down."
Upon hearing this, Lu Huaiyan's expression immediately became much colder, and he frowned and thought carefully about Chief of Staff Zhang's words.
The front line has been unstable in recent years, with enemies provoking him many times, which is why he has not considered marriage.
He may go to the front line at any time, and with his identity, he cannot give the other party a stable life.
Especially since he has to go to the battlefield to provide support, he might even be sacrificed. He cannot be so irresponsible.
Lu Huaiyan frowned, looking serious: "How is our troop strength and equipment deployment now?"
Chief of Staff Zhang lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and slowly blew out a few smoke rings: "The troops are sufficient, but the equipment is a bit old. The new batch of supplies is still being deployed. If a fight really breaks out, we still have to plan our tactics well."
After chatting with Staff Officer Zhang, Lu Huaiyan did not stay any longer and said seriously, "I will go back and prepare for the field training. No matter what, as long as there is an order from above, we will go directly."
Staff Officer Zhang put out his cigarette and stood up. "Okay, I feel relieved after hearing what you said. Let's go back and get ready."
Lu Huaiyan turned around and walked away with big strides.
-
In the dormitory, the lights were dim. After Lu Huaiyan tidied himself up, he sat down on a somewhat worn wooden chair. His posture was as straight as a pine tree, but the seriousness on his face was like frost.
His brows were furrowed, his eyes deep and cold.
Pei Yun was sitting on the bed resting after finishing his evening training.
Ever since Lu Huaiyan came back, he inexplicably felt a bad premonition rising in his heart.
He looked at Lu Huaiyan's expression and his heart sank.
He was too familiar with Lu Huaiyan's appearance, and from his expression, he guessed the current situation.
They were all arrows with taut bowstrings, ready to fly out as soon as the command broke the silence.
Knowing that Lu Huaiyan was thinking about these things in his mind, Pei Yunchen did not ask him much, but sat aside, his thoughts gradually becoming vague.
For him, going to the battlefield is not scary. He is a soldier and it is his responsibility to defend his country.
The person he can't let go of the most is his girlfriend Su Nian, who is studying at a university in another city.
Originally, because she went to study in another place and he joined the army, the two rarely met and could only communicate by writing letters.
He promised Anian that he would marry her as soon as she graduated from college.
But once you go to the front line, the war is like a raging wave, and life and death are uncertain.
It is very possible that we will be out of touch for several years. It is difficult to predict. Before going to the battlefield, everyone will be prepared to not come back for three to five years.
After the news of the field training was conveyed, Lu Huaiyan did not stay in the dormitory for long. He was soon notified to attend a meeting.
Not long after, Pei Yunchen was the only one left in the dormitory again.
Pei Yunchen sat on the edge of the bed, looking up at the moon in the sky. The more he thought about it, the heavier his heart felt.
After sighing, he pulled out a piece of letter paper from the drawer and picked up the pen beside him.
Although the lights were not very bright, I could still see clearly under the moonlight.
Pei Yunchen wrote the letter stroke by stroke in the moonlight.
Dear Anian:
I haven't seen you for a long time. How is your college life? I hope you can pursue your dreams without distraction in college. No matter what happens, you must persist in learning. You are smart. Come on, you are a future great scientist.
I will always support all your decisions. 】
Long before he put pen to paper, Pei Yunchen had thousands of things he wanted to say to Su Nian.
But once I started writing, I held back a lot of it.
He didn't mention a word about what happened on the battlefield.
Given her personality, if he told her that he was going to the battlefield, she would probably ask for leave and rush back to see him.
Later on, I will continue to worry about him and be distracted by him.
The little girl's eyes and heart are full of him, and he cannot influence her.
If she could come back from the battlefield in good health, he would marry her.
If she can't come back, I just hope she can continue with her studies and meet a better person.
-
An hour later, when Lu Huaiyan came back from the emergency meeting.
When I entered the room, there was only a lamp on the table, and Pei Yunchen was still sitting at the table.
Under the dim light, Pei Yunchen was holding a pocket watch in his hand, and he looked at it over and over again under the light.
