"Why?" Chi Yaohui looked at Linette and then at Li Sanpao, feeling that this guy really had a lot of skills, and he could actually be so obsessed with a foreign girl.
"Actually, it's nothing."
Lynette answered honestly: "As you know, I used to work on the "Mermaid" hospital ship, but I got news that the "Mermaid" will return to the United States in a few days.
But I don’t want to be separated from Sanpao, so I plan to quit my job on the hospital ship and work with you, so I just want to ask you, can you arrange a job for me?”
"That's no problem. Our field hospital is short of doctors and nurses."
Chi Yaohui waved his hand, "I will take you to the field hospital later to go through the formalities. As for the salary and benefits, I will be on the same level as a corporal for the time being. What do you think?"
"Thank you so much."
Linette was overjoyed and took two steps forward to give Chi Yaohui a hug. This frightened the man who had never frowned amidst the hail of bullets and quickly took two steps back.
"Miss Linette, if you really want to go to the end with Li Sanpao, you'd better learn more about the customs of our Chinese people.
Compared with your country, our customs are relatively conservative."
"Of course, Sanpao has already told me this."
Linette spread her hands, "Okay, but you know... it takes a certain amount of time for a person to change his habits."
Chi Yaohui pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache. This female foreign devil was so unique that he didn't even know whether throwing such a person into a field hospital was the right choice.

"Linette... have you really thought about following that Chinese boy?"
Ms. Malefielle Reed, the head nurse of the Mermaid hospital ship, looked worriedly at Lynette, who she usually chatted with the most, and asked again.
"Yes, I have already thought about it." Lynette nodded firmly.
"Without Sanpao, I would have turned into a skeleton in the jungle.
What's more, San Pao was not as rude as other American soldiers, and he would not whistle or say obscene words to women passing by.
Sanpao told me that in their country, if any boy whistles to a passing girl and acts like a hooligan, he will definitely be beaten to death by the girl’s father!”
After listening to Lynette's words, Malefielle couldn't help laughing.
"Linet, it seems you really hate those American soldiers."
"It's not that I hate it deeply, but it's true that I don't like it."
Lynette admitted frankly, "My father who participated in the First World War was an alcoholic, and he would beat and scold my mother every time he was drunk.
So I have sworn since I was a child that my future husband may not be rich, but he must know how to respect women and not be an alcoholic.
The reason why I came here to work as a nurse was because I had a big fight with my father last year.
I swear I will never go back from now on.
The last time we went on a mission in the jungle, our medical team was surrounded by the Japanese.
Just when I was about to commit suicide, Sanpao saved us. Is there anything more wonderful than this in the world?
I used to be his charge nurse, and he saved my life after he recovered from his injury and returned to the army. This must be God's will.
If I don't follow it, God will be angry."
"Okay!" Malefielle shrugged, "I admit that what you said makes sense. I hope your intuition is right. I can only wish you good luck."
"What about you?" Lynette asked back: "Since your boyfriend died in the war, you have been single until now. Can't you still forget Danny?
Believe me, the best way to save a lost partner is to find a new relationship!"
Although Malefielle is not as tall as Lynette, her facial features are extremely soft and fair. When paired with a pair of glasses, she looks knowledgeable and elegant. She looks like an intimate elder sister. With her pursuit
No less than Linette.
"Maybe I will look for it in the future, but I'm not in the mood yet." Malefielle sighed, patted Lynette on the shoulder, picked up the tray and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute." Lynette suddenly stopped her.
"Malefielle... I think maybe you can change your living environment.
I know Danny's death is a huge blow to me, and if you continue to work for more than ten hours a day as usual, your body will not be able to bear it."
"A change of environment?"
There was a trace of bitterness on the corner of Malefielle's mouth, "I came from Arkansas to a small Pacific island thousands of miles away just to change the environment. Where else do you want me to go now?"
"Go to Okinawa." Linette blurted out, "I heard Chief of Staff Chi of the Chinese Dispatch Corps say that they have signed an agreement with President Roosevelt. After defeating the Japanese, they will allocate several hundred square kilometers in Okinawa.
land to their general Gao.
General Gao will also settle his soldiers and families there, and we will be allocated a piece of land to build a house by then. Why don't you come with me to settle in Okinawa?"
"What are you talking about!" Malefielle was dumbfounded. "You went to Okinawa because you are a family member. What does it mean if I go there? Besides, they may not agree to take me in."
"That's easy to handle. Can't you just find one of those Chinese people?"
Lynette smiled slyly, "I think Chief of Staff Chi is pretty good, he has the rank of colonel.
The salary is definitely not low, it is enough to support you. And you can also have a boyfriend again, why not?"
"You're really crazy."
Malefielle slapped Lynette's perky buttocks in an angry and funny manner, turned around and left.
"No...Malefire, what I said is true, that Chief of Staff Chi is really good." Linette shouted from behind, and the one who answered her was Malefire's thin
Back view.
What Gao Hongming was worried about did not happen. Even though there was a time traveler like Gao Hongming, history was still running along the established trajectory with a strong inertia.
Time soon came to 1945
The Battle of Okinawa still went on as scheduled, but with the additional military force of the Chinese Dispatch Corps, the time for the US military to capture Okinawa was advanced.
Historically, the U.S. military did not fully occupy Okinawa until June, but now this time is two months earlier.
In order to occupy this island, the US military suffered 20,000 casualties. Although it was better than in another historical time and space, such casualties also made the Americans calculate the price they would have to pay if they wanted to take over the Japanese mainland.
In order to reduce the casualties of the US military, Truman, who had just succeeded Roosevelt as president, turned his attention to the newly developed mass murderer...the atomic bomb.
