Not only did she pass the test, Yao Xiaojing also took advantage of Chen Mufeng's remaining 3 hours of vacation. The reason for the short vacation was that the military academy had regulations, and you could not escape being called in late.
After the party, the rest of the people didn't want to be the light bulbs of the young couple. After discussion, they decided to abandon Yao Xiaojing and Chen Mufeng and go play something else.
Yao Xiaojing chuckled and took her wallet to the front desk to pay. Chen Mufeng wanted to follow, but she forced her down on her seat.
"Be more honest!" she warned him, who was about to make a move.
"The total is 396 yuan with drinks, so I'll charge you 390 yuan." The waiter at the front desk finished the calculation and showed the bill to Yao Xiaojing.
After a quick glance, she felt that she was inseparable, so she paid for the bill. After tearing up the invoice, she took the remaining money and stuffed it into her wallet. When she was about to walk back, she saw Chao Yue standing in the corner of the bar, seemingly waiting for her.
.
"Xiao Jing..."
"Lao Yue, is something wrong?"
Chao Yue touched his short hair, smiled at her, and said, "Take a few minutes of your time and let's talk."
"OK."
One after another, Yao Xiaojing and Chao Yue arrived at the teahouse outside the private room of Heshun Garden for waiting guests to rest. There were a few guests inside, who seemed to be waiting for the private room to eat, chatting with each other with impatient expressions. They saw a
A tall soldier came over with a beautiful young girl, and he couldn't help but look at them twice.
Chao Yue was not used to being paid too much attention. He pointed to the relatively quiet glass window facing the street: "Go over there and talk. It's just a few words, so there's no need to sit down."
"Okay." Yao Xiaojing followed Chao Yue to the transparent glass window.
"Lao Yue, just say what you want to say. There are no outsiders here, I'm listening." Chao Yue is not a talkative person. He must have important matters to avoid Chen Mufeng and talk to him alone.
Chao Yue stared at the bustling pedestrians outside the window, with a trace of embarrassment on his face. He had been hesitating whether he should say anything. But thinking of the lifelong happiness of good brothers, he couldn't help but say: "You will always treat Mu Feng like this."
Yes?"
Yao Xiaojing was slightly startled. It seemed that he shouldn't be the one to ask this question.
She silently put her hands on the railing in front of the glass and gave her promise: "I think I can..."
Chao Yue suddenly turned his head, looked at Yao Xiaojing with a deep look and said, "If Mu Feng was so poor except for you that all he had left was his dignity, would you still be with him?"
So poor that only dignity is left? Chao Yue's words made Yao Xiaojing suddenly feel a little nervous. Could it be that there is something else that she doesn't know?
"Old...yue...can you speak more clearly?" she asked with difficulty.
Chao Yue swallowed, turned his eyes a few times, and then seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Mufeng is an orphan...you don't know yet, right?"
Yao Xiaojing's body was shocked and she murmured in surprise: "Orphan?"
She thought of the scene in the medical tent in the primitive jungle when the unconscious Mu Feng called his mother in his dream. At that time, she mistakenly thought that he missed his mother in his hometown because of his vulnerability after injury. After Chao Yue said this, she finally
Understand that Chen Mufeng's seemingly powerful and indestructible tall body hides a sensitive and fragile heart.
He buried everything deeply in his heart. If it weren't for the injury, if it wasn't for the nightmare, he might never have shown his cowardice.
Chao Yue nodded heavily and grasped the cold railing with his fingers. He took a deep breath and tried his best to make his emotions less excited. After stabilizing himself, he said to the silent Yao Xiaojing: "Mu Feng...he lost his temper at a very young age.
He lost his mother, and his father died of illness a few years after remarrying. The environment where he grew up was...how should I say...very harsh..."
Chao Yue knew that he had used an inappropriate word, but there was no word that could describe the hardships and hardships that Chen Mufeng went through when he was young and growing up.
"You may not have imagined that Mu Feng's traveling expenses and living expenses to K University were all chipped in by his fellow villagers. They said that it is not easy for the village to produce such an outstanding Yaozi, and Yaozi's future cannot be ruined.
They will sacrifice a college officer at all costs! So... the reason why Mu Feng is able to achieve his current achievements depends entirely on his perseverance and faith that are countless times more than those of us students who grew up in a privileged life. You may not think of it.
, until now, he doesn’t have any decent clothes other than military uniforms..."
Chao Yue looked seriously at Yao Xiaojing, who had a very deep look in his eyes, and said: "He is particularly able to endure hardships and endure hardships. There are many times when he is so harsh on himself that both Yan Guo and I feel sorry for him, but when I say it,
Thousands of words of persuasion were in vain. He said that he no longer had the advantage of the environment, but no matter how he lost, he could not lose on dignity... Xiaojing and Mu Feng's situation was like this, it was difficult... very poor...
But he has been silently adhering to the path he has chosen and never gives up."
Yao Xiaojing felt her nose was a little sore and her eyes were filled with moisture. She sighed silently and said: "Lao Yue, I think I understand what you mean. Are you afraid that if I know the truth, you will dislike him and leave him?
"
Chao Yue nodded, looked at her thoughtfully, and said cautiously: "Although there were many beautiful girls chasing him before you, including many high-ranking officials or rich second-generation beauties who even made our hearts flutter when we looked at them, but
But he treated him like a broken shoe and never took it seriously. I know my brother Mu Feng. Although he is poor, he has a prouder and pure heart than anyone else. Yan Guo and I began to think that you and those girls
Same, it's just because of the novelty or Mu Feng's appearance that I wanted to have fun with him. But I never thought that when I accepted the school mission with him this time, I found out that he actually really liked you. You didn't know...
..In order to make that bear for you...he actually..." Chao Yue couldn't continue.
"What... Lao Yue... tell me quickly..." She sniffed, suddenly wanting to know from other people's mouths what kind of man her Madman Chen is who values love and justice.
"He... stayed up for five whole nights to make that bear. How many times I woke up in the middle of the night, I could see him concentrating on gluing the dried flower petals he picked and made by himself under the lamp. Staying up late is not good for us.
It may not be a big deal to a soldier, but that doesn’t mean that a mortal body that has just completed a high-intensity mission during the day can withstand the test of staying up late..."
