Song Lili looked at Lin Xinglan’s silhouette...
From the start, Song Lili knew she was spoiled and willful, troublesome, stupid and useless, even disregarding the identity, honor, and dignity of a soldier as nothing.
But also from the beginning, she knew Lin Xinglan was pure, naive, innocent and harmless...
She was like a sheep that had strayed into a pack of wolves, so foolishly trying to befriend the wolves because she had never seen one!
Lin Xinglan’s question remained unanswered for a long time, and she turned around with some disappointment, "Is it really that bad?"
"My goal is to climb to the highest position in Country G, and as long as I am alive, I will use all my strength to climb up, even if there are thorns everywhere, even if I have to go through a mountain of knives and a sea of fire, I will step on everyone who blocks my way until I reach my goal, and I will never rest!"
Song Lili took a step forward and walked past her,
"If you can’t even pass this selection, if all you want to be in this life is Mayor Lin’s daughter and guard a small piece of land in Xilin, what right do you have to talk to me about mutual supervision?"
Lin Xinglan’s body froze completely.
Country G... the highest position...
What position was that?
She gasped, not daring to utter the answer in her heart.
Now looking at the figure of the woman walking ahead of her, she truly realized that the difference between her and Tang Xiaohua was not in their origins, but in their resolve.
They were of similar age, but that was all there was to it.
"Are you... serious?"
Lin Xinglan hurried to catch up, if it had been a few days earlier, she might have scoffed and ridiculed Tang Xiaohua for these words!
But now, a sense of awe had grown in her heart.
Song Lili didn’t answer her, but just continued to stride firmly in a certain direction.
She had a premonition that the main event of the selection was about to begin.
Lin Xinglan did not continue to ask, the two things Song Lili had said were like harsh slaps to Lin Xinglan, forcing this girl who never wanted to grow up to suddenly fall into deep thought...
Traveling through the night, around eleven o’clock, they arrived at the middle of Luoheng Mountain, and Song Lili found a spot surrounded by trees with the sound of a stream nearby.
Lin Xinglan was about to rest against a tree when Song Lili pulled her up,
"Don’t sleep on the ground."
"Huh? Then where do we sleep?"
Song Lili pointed above her head.
Lin Xinglan was shocked again, "How can we sleep in the trees?"
"Let’s get up there first."
Song Lili didn’t explain further, and Lin Xinglan, without asking more questions, climbed the tree first with Song Lili’s help.
The trunk was thick and sturdy, and the branches were perfect for two people to lean on securely.
After Song Lili climbed up herself, she took out two sleeping bags from her backpack, and the rest of the items were pressed behind her for support.
Lin Xinglan snuggled into the sleeping bag but reached out her hand to embrace Song Lili.
Song Lili was startled by this sudden move and was about to push Lin Xinglan’s hand away when she heard her say,
This soft utterance softened Song’s heart for a moment, and she let her hold on.
As soon as Lin Xinglan embraced Song Lili, she felt at ease, closed her eyes, and said nothing more.
"Don’t sleep yet, I have a few words to tell you, remember them before you sleep."
Song Lili hurriedly said, she took a deep breath, and in her hands was not something insignificant, it was the gun and bullets equipped in her backpack.
