Chapter 86 I won't confess to Taotu first! [On the shelves tomorrow at noon]
ten minutes later.
Taotu was in front of the sink, cleaning her slightly swollen lips in front of the mirror.
On the chair at the back, Nuo Xia sat there aggrievedly, with three bags piled on his head and smoke slowly rising...
Bad woman, really hateful.
He actually struck such a heavy blow. If it weren't for the damage reduction protection of "Rough Skin and Thick Flesh", he might have inherited Taotu's bed and just lay in this hospital for several days, right?
"Young man, you seem to think you are quite pitiful?"
Taotu saw Nuo Xia's expression in the mirror, turned her head coldly, glared at him and said:
"My lips are swollen. I know it's your first time kissing and you have no experience, but it's my first time too, so can't you be more careful and gentle?"
"I'm sorry, Brigadier."
Nuo Xia sincerely admitted her mistake. Indeed, she and Shia kissed too little. As a result, her kissing skills are still very jerky and clumsy, and she failed to bring a good experience to Taotu. "I will definitely pay attention next time."
"Do you want another time?"
Taotu came over, grabbed his cheeks hard, rubbed them as if to vent his anger, and said angrily: "I dare to put your mouth over my face without my consent. This time alone, I can kill you directly."
It was transferred to Impel Down City, did you know?"
"I'm sorry, Jun-chan!"
Nuo Xia's cheeks were swollen and deformed after being rubbed, and even her speech was slurred. "I thought you were hinting at me to take the initiative..."
"What a hint!"
Taotu became even more embarrassed and struck harder, almost sending Nuo Xia away, "Stop misinterpreting other people's meanings, you bastard!"
——The first kiss in more than 20 years was suddenly gone just like that. Even if the person who took it away was the brat I had always liked, it still made me very angry!
After venting for a long time, Taotu finally let go of his hand and lay back on the hospital bed, half leaning against the wall, and returned to his elegant and tranquil appearance like a gardenia.
"juvenile."
She sighed, looked at Nuo Xia, who was swollen into a pig's head, and said softly:
"Although it was me who made my intentions clear before, I must remind you that liking and being in love are two different things, do you understand?"
"don't know."
Nuo Xia shook his head honestly, "But Brigadier, I just like your honest and non-coy speaking style."
"Then let me put it more bluntly. Yes, young man, I have indeed had a crush on you since we were in Xihai. Otherwise, I would not tolerate your many excessive behaviors."
Taotu said lightly, "But my requirements for love have always been very high. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people who wanted to pursue me over the years, but none of them succeeded."
"Young man, I really hope that you can become the true love of my life, but unfortunately, so far, you are not qualified."
She looked at Nuo Xia and said quietly:
"How to put it specifically, well... I do yearn for pure love that ignores the differences between the two parties, but I can't accept that my man is a guy who is weaker than me in terms of strength and status and needs my protection and blessing. Do you understand?
?”
This was said very sincerely, and Nuo Xia couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore, so he looked solemn and said seriously:
"What do I need to do, Brigadier?"
"At the very least, you have to catch up with me in terms of military rank and strength."
Taotu smiled and said, "Maybe five years, maybe ten years? Anyway, I'm not in a hurry. If you still like me by then, come and confess your love to me. I think I will accept it happily."
"Does it take that long?"
Nuo Xia pouted, "You are looking down on me too much. Why don't I just meet your two conditions on the day I graduate?"
"The conditions will be met as soon as you graduate?"
Taotu was slightly startled, then laughed and said, "How dare you think about it, young man? You have only been in the camp for less than a year, right? Do you want to be a brigadier general in two years?"
"To be precise, I don't think it will be needed for a year, maybe only a few months."
Nuo Xia chuckled and said: "To tell you the truth, there are not many things that the elite camp can teach me. I have always planned to wait for the opportunity to apply for graduation in advance."
He was obviously smiling, but his tone was extremely serious.
"..."
Taotu quietly looked at the black-haired boy in front of him, swallowed the teasing that was about to reach his lips, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Then according to what you said, wouldn't it be possible for me to listen in a few months?
Is it time for your official confession?"
Hmm, I'm looking forward to it for no reason.
"You definitely can't hear it."
Taotu's face fell instantly, "Huh?"
"I've said it all, I will definitely let you take the initiative to confess your love to me!"
Seeing Taotu's cold gaze, Nuo Xia quickly speeded up her speech before she reached out to bully him, and finished the sentence in one breath: "Since you agree, as long as my military rank becomes the same as yours, you will take over my confession...
…”
"Then why not make one more agreement? As long as my military rank exceeds your current position when I graduate, you will be the one to take the initiative to confess to me. How about that?"
"..." Taotu was silent for a moment, then raised her head and looked at him with a frown, "Young man, you seem to be very stubborn about who will confess first?"
"Of course, Brigadier, this is a man's dignity!" Nuo Xia puffed up his chest and said proudly, "In the future, when we are older, we will be questioned when we are basking in the sun in front of Mr. Warring States' grave and telling stories to our younger generations.
Come on, who was chasing whom in the first place? I don’t want to be the embarrassed one!"
You are already embarrassed enough!
Taotu glared at him angrily, and after thinking about it, he suddenly laughed: "Okay, I agree."
Eh?
Now it was Nuo Xia's turn to be stunned - that was the proud flower of the high mountains, taking the initiative to confess to herself, just a few nonsense words, and the other party actually agreed?
Hey, what? Little Rabbit still doesn’t know enough about his own strength.
The rank above brigadier general is just major general. Although he is stronger than Akainu Aokiji and others, he was only at this level when he graduated.
But with the help of the system, Nuo Xia is still quite confident. He thinks that if he works harder, he still has a good chance of being directly awarded this position when he graduates!
"Then it's settled!" He was overjoyed, "Brigadier General, you can't keep your word from now on!"
"Of course, when have I never kept my promise?"
Taotu smiled half-heartedly. She took the water glass from the bedside table, took a sip, and then said leisurely: "Oh, by the way, you haven't finished flipping through that document yet? You can skip to the last page to read it.
, maybe there will be a surprise."
Um?
What's the meaning?
Nuo Xia looked puzzled, but still followed Taotu's words, picked up the G7 branch battle report again, and turned to the last page.
A line of eye-catching file titles suddenly came into view, making him instantly dumbfounded:
[Resolution on the promotion of several generals who have outstanding performance in this war]
"...In addition to the above personnel, the former Brigadier General Gion is hereby appointed as the Major General of the headquarters. This appointment will take effect from the date of issuance of the document."
