These people's figures and behavior are just as upright as those soldiers in the compound.
They trained, ate and lived together for a long time, had the same walking posture, and their steps were of the same size and frequency.
After spending a long time with them, you can pick them out at a glance even if they stand next to civilians in military uniforms.
Jiang Shiyue suddenly remembered that before hanging up the phone last time, Chen Shanhe asked his comrades to come and find her.
She hurried forward to stop Uncle Ge: "Uncle, they are not bad people. Let them in!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Ge put away the trident and asked Jiang Shiyue anxiously, "Do you really know them?"
“I don’t know them, but they have all served in the military.”
"Hey! Veterans?!" Uncle Ge retracted his trident and complained to the young men, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
The young man, who was repeatedly targeted by Mr. Ge, said in dismay, "I told you, but you didn't listen!"
He said it several times!
"Sorry, it's all a misunderstanding." Jiang Shiyue said.
"You guys chat in the message room for a while, I'll go call Old Li to take a look around." Uncle Ge gave the message room to Jiang Shiyue to entertain the guests.
Anyway, with so many veterans, we don’t have to worry about thugs coming.
"Hello, sister-in-law! Sister-in-law, my name is Mao Aping." The young man who was targeted by Uncle Ge spoke first.
"Hello sister-in-law, my name is Liu Jianmin."
"Hello sister-in-law, my name is Sun Mingliang."
"Hello sister-in-law, my name is Li Dagang."
Before Jiang Shiyue could speak, the phone in the switchboard room rang.
Jiang Shiyue picked up the phone and the person on the other side was Chen Shanhe.
"You called at the perfect time. Several of your comrades are in our school."
"I know. I asked them to look for you at this time."
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
Then you should notify me.
It was because of the misunderstanding just now.
The phone didn't have a hands-free function, so Jiang Shiyue placed the receiver on the table, with the handset and microphone facing upwards, and five people gathered around.
"Hello, Captain Chen..."
Jiang Shiyue heard them greet Chen Shanhe and guessed that they must be Chen Shanhe's former comrades in the flying brigade.
The five people held a small meeting with Chen Shanhe on the phone about Jiang Shiyue being blocked by gangsters at school.
To Jiang Shiyue, it wasn't even a meeting, it was just a notification.
Chen Shanhe asked these four people to come so that they could get to know Jiang Shiyue, and also so that Jiang Shiyue could get to know them.
After Chen Shanhe knew that they had exchanged names, he simply said to Liu Jianmin and the others, "Protect her well."
Liu Jianmin and the others patted their chests and promised that they would not let Jiang Shiyue lose a single hair. After agreeing to have dinner together after Chen Shanhe came to Huacheng, they left the message room.
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
It's like coming and going in a hurry.
"They just left like that?" Jiang Shiyue looked through the window and saw Liu Jianmin and the others getting on their bicycles.
"They won't be going far until your roommate's matter is dealt with. They're just giving us space to make a phone call."
Jiang Shiyue: “…”
She felt a little embarrassed. "There's really no need to make such a big fuss."
"I don't want to take any chances."
Jiang Shiyue was stunned, a warm feeling surged in her heart, and her whole body was wrapped in soft and gentle touch.
It turns out that long-distance relationship and love are not in conflict.
Even if someone is thousands of miles away and has no choice, he will still try his best to protect her, just in case she gets hurt.
"Chen Shanhe."
"Um."
"Thanks."
"How do you thank me? With your body?" Chen Shanhe chuckled. His voice was usually clear and melodious, but the four words "with your body" made the last syllable of his voice drag out, adding a bit of charm.
For the first time in her two lives, Jiang Shiyue experienced what it meant for her ears to be pregnant.
Her face suddenly turned red, and she glanced out the window as if she was guilty.
Uncle Ge was walking slowly towards us from a distance.
Jiang Shiyue suddenly got angry and said back, "No, thank you with your mouth!"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and Jiang Shiyue heard Chen Shanhe's usually steady breathing suddenly become irregular.
The microphone seemed to be held in a different hand.
When he spoke again, Chen Shanhe's voice was a little hoarse, "Keep your word! When we meet again, don't forget what you just said about using your mouth... Thank you!"
The emphasis fell on his lips and he paused for a beat.
Jiang Shiyue's ears felt like they were burning, but she said, "Hmm! It's what you understood. But..."
She wrapped her index finger around the phone coil and said in a long, delicate voice, "It's time-limited! The deadline is New Year's Day. No waiting after that."
"Are you bullying me for not having a vacation?!"
"Yes!" Jiang Shiyue smiled brightly, like a little fox whose evil plan had succeeded.
"young married woman."
"exist."
"Have you ever heard the saying, 'Man proposes, God disposes.'" Chen Shanhe said meaningfully, "Remember your promise and wait for me!"
***
Jiang Shiyue spent several days in a state of anxiety.
He had to attend classes during the day, and he would run out during breaks to find a house for Liu Jianmin and others.
The four of them were all natives of Huacheng, but there was some distance between different counties and districts, and it was inconvenient to travel back and forth in the 1978 era when transportation was inconvenient.
Jiang Shiyue's advice was in vain, so she had to compromise and take a middle approach. She rented a house for them near the school and threatened that if they did not live there, she would not accept their protection.
It's useless to move Chen Shanhe out. The emperor is far away and Chen Shanhe is out of reach.
Liu Jianmin was initially unwilling to accept the offer, but later Chen Shanhe called and asked them to stay, and they finally agreed.
Whenever Jiang Shiyue went in and out, they followed him from a distance.
Usually two people follow, and two others go to investigate the He family.
Jiang Shiyue also had to go to Dongsheng in the evening to rearrange the supermarket on the first floor and some of the counters on the floors.
