She turned her head and glanced at Lu Huaiyan.
Lu Huaiyan had stopped and turned to look at her, his expression normal, as if he was completely unaware of anything.
Jiang Xiachu felt many eyes on him from all around and felt extremely depressed. He couldn't help but glare at Lu Huaiyan, feeling extremely angry.
Before joining the army, she had emphasized to Lu Huaiyan more than once that the two of them no longer had any relationship.
From now on in the army, I will just pretend not to know you.
When she met Lu Huaiyan today, she pretended not to see anything.
As a result, I finally walked past him without any trouble. Before I could even breathe a sigh of relief, I heard him calling my name.
I had agreed to distance myself from the matter, but this sentence will probably cause me a lot of trouble for no reason.
After all, many people in the army still pay attention to Lu Huaiyan.
Lu Huaiyan felt Jiang Xiachu's gaze, but did not retract his gaze and continued to look at her.
Jiang Xiachu was wearing a brand new military uniform, with an upright posture. The dark green uniform was tailored to fit her perfectly, highlighting her slender waist and her trouser legs hanging straight down.
Her black hair was tied into a thick braid and she wore a military cap on her head. A few strands of hair stuck out from under the brim of the cap, making her face look even smaller.
Her eyes were clear and her cheeks were slightly flushed. She had changed a lot since he saw her a few days ago.
In the past, Jiang Xiachu had appeared so vividly before his eyes, but now, when he saw her again, she no longer moved him at all.
Thinking of this, Lu Huaiyan clenched his hands, his knuckles turned white, and the slight pain in his palms could not hide the bitterness in his heart.
The Jiang Xiachu in front of him seemed familiar yet unfamiliar, and every move he made seemed familiar, but he always felt that there was a sense of distance everywhere.
Lu Huaiyan's eyes were on her and he couldn't move them away.
Seeing Jiang Xiachu's expression as if she wanted to stay a thousand miles away from him, Lu Huaiyan's face changed slightly, and then returned to normal.
The corner of the man's mouth curled up into a faint bitter smile.
Jiang Lin was right beside him. He was the person she was currently developing a relationship with.
He wanted to get closer to Jiang Xiachu, but she just wanted to cut off ties with him.
"It's Lu Huaiyan! Captain Lu..."
A young girl from the art troupe who had just finished training was walking towards the cafeteria. She suddenly noticed a man not far away and was extremely surprised.
The arts soldier following her quickly looked over and widened his eyes.
"It's really Captain Lu, so handsome."
"I've only heard that Lu Huaiyan is very powerful and a handsome young man. I didn't quite believe it and was only hoping to see him in person in the military district. I didn't expect it to really come true! What a great luck! I'm so happy!"
"He's tall, handsome, and very capable. How can there be such an excellent man in the world..."
The little girl held her face and looked at Lu Huaiyan, her saliva almost flowing out, she was filled with emotion.
"There are so many girls who like Lu Huaiyan. He is the youngest leader. It's unrealistic for you to like him."
"Lu Huaiyan always sits in the first row of the audience every time he performs. I originally thought that I would have to wait until I worked hard to get on the big stage before I could see him!"
Lin Qingli, who was gossiping on the side, heard the whispers of people. Her eyes were full of surprise and she choked because she couldn't breathe.
“Ahem—”
"cough--"
She coughed several times before she recovered. She covered her chest and breathed in deeply, and couldn't help but sigh twice.
I didn’t expect that there are so many girls who like Lu Huaiyan. They are all fascinated by him. If you don’t know, you would think that Lu Huaiyan is a famous artist.
"Who is he waiting for here? Why did I hear her calling Chu Chu just now? Who is Chu Chu? Is she one of his friends?"
Someone suddenly brought up what happened just now, and everyone's attention was instantly drawn back, with a look of confusion on their faces.
Jiang Xiachu originally stopped where he was, but when he heard these gossips, his heart tightened.
She turned her head and looked at Lin Qingli, signaling with her eyes.
Lin Qingli received her gaze and immediately understood. He took her hand and walked forward as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Xiachu left without looking back, as if the person who had just called her was not her.
Those who originally thought that Lu Huaiyan was greeting Jiang Xiachu immediately denied this idea when they saw this scene.
It looked like the two men didn't seem to know each other. Perhaps Lu Huaiyan was just greeting someone else.
As a result, Jiang Xiachu had just taken two or three steps when the man's voice came again.
"Jiang Xiachu."
Perhaps because he was afraid that Jiang Xiachu would pretend not to hear again, Lu Huaiyan called her by her full name this time, and his voice was a little louder.
This time everyone heard it clearly.
It turned out that the person Lu Huaiyan was calling was really Jiang Xiachu.
Now, she couldn't pretend not to hear anything. If she ignored him again, she would probably be misunderstood as being guilty.
Jiang Xiachu rolled her eyes speechlessly in her heart, forced a smile on her lips, turned her head and looked at Lu Huaiyan.
This fake smile gave Lin Qingli goosebumps.
Why did she feel that Xia Chu's smile was uglier than constipation? It made people have only one feeling when looking at it - speechless.
Jiang Xiachu looked at him with a puzzled look on his face, but didn't say anything.
Lu Huaiyan raised his lips lightly, his expression normal, as if it was normal, and asked casually: "It's your first day in the army, how are you getting used to it?"
As soon as he said this, his comrades and new cultural soldiers around him stopped in their tracks and couldn't help but look over here, their curiosity burning in their hearts.
Since Lu Huaiyan asked this kind of question, it means that he definitely knows Jiang Xiachu, and their relationship is not just an ordinary unfamiliar one.
At first glance, we know he is a familiar friend.
Everyone looked at each other, constantly guessing the relationship between the two, and couldn't help whispering.
"Commander Lu actually knows Jiang Xiachu?"
"We're more than just acquaintances. You're really stupid. You've even called her 'Chu Chu'. Do you think that's appropriate for ordinary people?"
"Is there something going on between these two people?"
As soon as these words came out, a female arts soldier immediately spoke up to defend him, retorting: "How can that be possible? Does calling her 'Chu Chu' mean anything? Who knows, maybe she's just a friend? Can't we allow Chief Lu to have friends?"
“…”
Jiang Xiachu was extremely perfunctory, with a lukewarm attitude and a tone that didn't show any emotion at all, and replied, "It's OK."
She looked cold, and Lu Huaiyan clearly felt her alienation, but he was not annoyed, and still looked at her with a smile, "How was the training? Are you tired?"
He asked patiently one question after another, but Jiang Xiachu's patience was gone.
She pursed her lips speechlessly, raised her eyes and glanced at him, "I don't know if I'm tired or not, but I can see that you're not tired at all. You're so capable and have unlimited energy."
Lu Huaiyan frowned slightly: "Why?"
Jiang Xiachu shrugged and said, "You still have the energy to meddle in other people's affairs, so you must not be tired."
