Chapter 172 Talking is Earning
When Chen Shuang called, she could faintly hear her classmates cheering in delight. "Oh my god! If anyone ever says your General Gu is unkind again, I'll be the first to disagree! This is too romantic!"
"Huh?" He Jing was confused. He touched the necklace around his neck, his heart pounding.
"According to the normal distance calculation, we should have arrived at three o'clock. However, the spacecraft did not move at the standard pace. Especially after entering the planet Kelan, the flying speed was very slow, and at one point it dropped to the minimum speed!"
Yes, it seems that the arrival time today is later than before. The driving route and time need to be reported in advance. It turns out that he had planned it a week ago.
He Jing moved his hands and pinched Gu Zheng's fingers boldly: Have you been planning this for a long time?
Gu Zheng: Of course.
He Jing smiled secretly, her fingers playing around in his palm, and the next second, she was held by his backhand.
The dry and warm palm seemed to be electrified, numbing the entire way from the fingertips to the heart. He Jing turned away with red ears.
"Watching the sunrise in the sky! Oh my god, General Gu is so romantic! No wonder you said you had to get up early, so you were waiting here!"
He Jing gently pressed his hot cheek against the window glass, looking at the red sun in the distance, his heart surging.
"So, are you already overwhelmed with emotion?!"
He Jing closed his eyes, the sunlight shining on his face, and a big smile appeared on his face.
Yes, I have been unable to extricate myself from the heart.
-----------------
The spaceship stopped directly halfway up the mountain in Chongshan Garden. The mountain here is gentle and it is just right as a place to stay.
Many familiar faces appeared around. Gu Zheng handed the schoolbag to He Jing, took out a mosquito repellent patch from his pocket and carefully stuck it on her collar. "Go, be careful."
"Well~ let's go!" He Jing curved his eyes, waved at Yang Ziang and others who were peeking at him from a distance, then turned and ran towards Chen Shuang.
"Ouch~ Something's wrong! Did you send something?" Chen Shuang narrowed his eyes and smiled teasingly.
The big, round cat's eyes curved into crescents. He Jing leaned close to Chen Shuang's ear and whispered in a low voice, "Well... we're together!"
Chen Shuang exclaimed, "Such speed?!"
"Sure, sure! General Gu is worthy of being the strongest combat commander. He took him down with one strike! Tell me, how did he confess his feelings?"
He Jing stared at the red face, feeling angry and shy, "How do you know he was the one who confessed? Couldn't it be me?..."
"You? Impossible, you're just an ostrich cat. But then again, you finally figured it out, huh?"
"...I had forgotten about it, but now that you mentioned it, I remembered it..."
He Jing's eyes darkened, and the corners of his eyes drooped. "What should I do? Aunt Chen and the others are so kind to me, but I'm in love with her son..."
"So what? Wouldn't it be better to have a closer relationship?"
After Chen Shuang finished speaking, she looked at the woman with a troubled expression and straightened her expression. "Actually, I always thought you two had been together for a long time. We can all see that you like him very much, and he likes you very much too. When you said you two weren't together, I didn't understand at first, but later I kind of understood."
"Xiao He, you don't seem to know that you are very good, very good, and many people like you."
"How could it be..." The girl lowered her head, her hands unconsciously kneading her fingertips, "I have nothing, I can do nothing, but Gu Zheng is different, he is very good, good in every way."
Chen Shuang was helpless. She pinched the girl's cheeks with both hands and pulled her face out. "You always seem to forget one thing. You are one of the only 0.001% of high-level 3S females in the entire Federation. What does that mean? This means that if you have the support of the Gu and Chen families, you can choose any man in the Federation."
"So, even if you do nothing, you're still unmatched. What's more, you're approachable, beautiful, and considerate..."
"Okay, okay! Stop talking!" He Jing's face turned completely red, and her two little hands covered Chen Shuang's mouth in panic.
Chen Shuang raised his hands in surrender, and after the kitten released its claws, he continued, "Finally, I'll ask you one last question. What do you think of Gu Zheng's judgment of people?"
"That's good, of course."
"Then he likes you, which means our He Xiaomao is also very good~"
Well, that makes some sense.
He Jing shook his ears, and the gloom in his eyes disappeared.
Chen Shuang smiled and took the person in his arms, "Let's go, it's time to gather."
He Jing suddenly understood. What Gu Zheng and Yu Jin had said finally coincided with what Chen Shuang had said. Perhaps, she should believe in herself.
She finally had something that belonged to her and she didn't have to give it away.
No, Gu Zheng is nothing, no... it's weird to say that...
Anyway, since Gu Zheng is her boyfriend, unless Gu Zheng himself wants to leave, she will not let him go no matter who wants her.
He Jing raised the corner of her mouth, turned her head and glanced back quietly, just in time to meet her boyfriend's focused and gentle eyes.
Wow, so handsome!
He Jing felt that he had completely let go. After all, if he could negotiate, he would make a profit!
The first day of class took place inside the spaceship, covering outdoor safety tips and emergency procedures. The huge conference room was packed with people, and He Jing looked around in amazement.
After class, Chen Shuang took her to visit the dormitory. It was a double room with a pretty good environment, so it would be no problem for her to live there for a month.
"You look so surprised, haven't you seen this before?"
"No... I rarely go out, and when I do, I always take the Gu family's spaceship."
Chen Shuang raised an eyebrow. The Gu family was quite protective.
The next day, each class started to take action. He Jing's class was responsible for collecting samples from Area A. They walked, stopped, talked and laughed along the way, feeling like a spring outing.
Moreover, the air in the mountains is fresh, small animals appear from time to time, and there are people from the Northwest War Zone patrolling every few meters. It is safe and reliable. After more than half a month, I was reluctant to leave.
As the sun set, He Jing handed the collected samples back to his instructor and looked up at the sky.
The weather is very good today, with a clear sky and gorgeous sunset. He Jing thought of her new boyfriend and opened the smart brain with some hesitation.
There was a chirping sound overhead, and a white dove spread its wings and flew. He Jing's heart moved, and he raised his hand to take a picture.
When Gu Zheng received the message, his heart moved. He clicked on the photo and looked at it quietly for a long time, with a smile on his face.
Ji Wendong stood not far away and whispered to Yang Ziang, "Captain, you've been so weird lately. You look so happy and cheerful... It's scary."
"...Hmm." Yang Ziang looked up and said, "Alright, stop gossiping. There are only a few days left in the research trip, and we must not let anything go wrong at the last minute."
"What a joke! How could there be any trouble? This mountain garden is completely under surveillance. There's not a single blind spot. The captain personally designed the defenses. Not even a mosquito from outside can get in."
“…”
"You two continue your patrol."
Gu Zheng's voice suddenly rang out, and Ji Wendong shuddered with fear, "Okay, Captain!"
When Gu Zheng walked away, Ji Wendong's shoulders relaxed and his eyes narrowed into slits, "No, is the captain in love?!"
