Sheng Ning couldn’t help but shiver, "But the mission is really dangerous."
In her previous life, she only knew the tragic outcome, unaware in advance, completely oblivious to what happened in between.
Now, it seemed that the secrecy beforehand had been too effective.
"As long as it’s a mission, there’s no lack of threat," Xu Qigang said with a calm expression, "We are comrades, always ready to sacrifice our lives for the country. You need to try and get used to it!"
"I can’t get used to it, I won’t let you go," Sheng Ning said childishly, embracing him.
It seemed she really was frightened, a twinge of pity flashed in Xu Qigang’s eyes as he patiently coaxed her: "Okay, I won’t go. I’m just here to teach them some life-preserving skills in emergencies, to save one more person if possible. Facing a mission, we have no right to retreat or refuse, but we can increase our chances of success."
"My dear, you are truly great!"
"Let’s go back!" he said seriously, "If we don’t head back, I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself and will take you right here."
Reluctantly parting from Xu Qigang, Sheng Ning had just returned to her dormitory when she was blocked by Chen Huaying.
"Tell me honestly, where have you been?"
"Date!" Sheng Ning replied crisply, then bypassed the stunned crowd, and took her toiletries to the shower room.
"Damn! How thick-skinned can she be?" Chen Huaying exclaimed regretfully after Sheng Ning left, beating her chest.
"Hahaha..." Wu Youli couldn’t hold back her laughter. When Sheng Ning came back after freshening up, she rolled up a book to use as a microphone and held it in front of Sheng Ning very seriously.
"Comrade Sheng Ning, what was your first thought after getting promoted?"
"I can finally get married!" Sheng Ning said, taking out a half-knitted sweater and knitting as she spoke.
"Damn!" Chen Huaying threw herself on the bed, "I always thought I had the thickest skin in our Song and Dance Troupe, but it turns out it’s you, Sheng Ning."
"Speaking of your thick skin, do your parents know about it?"
"By the way, Sheng Ning, I heard you went to see Shen Jianguo today?"
The knitting needles paused in her hands, Sheng Ning nodded and replied, "Yeah! Word gets around quickly."
"Hahaha... serves you right! Daring to flirt with another man in front of Living Yama, if I were Living Yama, I’d keep you in bed for three days and nights." Chen Huaying rolled on the bed triumphantly, completely unaware that the room had suddenly fallen silent.
Finally, they looked at each other.
This... this must be true openness, right?
Sheng Ning teased Chen Huaying, who embarrassedly scratched her head and giggled foolishly. "Hahaha... what did I just say? I didn’t say anything."
"You said..." Sheng Ning was about to repeat when Chen Huaying suddenly pounced on her on the bed, "If you say that again, keep talking..."
During the time Xu Qigang was assigned as a coach, he stayed at the Research Institute guesthouse, which was considered the best treatment.
Li Duoxi rode on the coattails and stayed next door to Xu Qigang.
It was already dark, and seeing that the captain hadn’t returned yet, Li Duoxi paced anxiously up and down the corridor.
Ah! His sister-in-law really shouldn’t hurt the captain’s heart.
As his longtime brother and subordinate, they knew very well how loyal and devoted the captain was. Once he made a commitment, he would never change for a lifetime.
Thinking about the previous rumors of his sister-in-law pursuing Shen Jianguo, Li Duoxi became even more worried.
