But Qin Xiu looked at her lightly as if he had just heard a joke. He then replied, “I don’t know her; I was even rejected by her when I wanted to interview her.”
Is it? Du Jiayi didn’t quite believe it because she trusted her instincts more, “I see; if that’s the case, then sorry for bothering you.” If you don’t want to say, then I will find it out myself.
The leader who was awakened by the construction aid command originally wanted to stay back, but he was kindly invited back to the tent by J5. He initially wanted Ye Jian to return to the tent with the female soldiers, but when he saw Ye Jian’s eyes, he smiled. He turned around and left without saying a word.
Obviously, she couldn’t be persuaded.
Qin Xiu also wanted to persuade her but was also stopped by the faint smile in her eyes, and he immediately changed the topic, “You can come to the front to help us. If there is still snow coming down from the mountain, you can inform us, and we can take cover in time.”
Fortunately, he got to talk to her for a while. They would go their separate ways when the road was cleared; he really didn’t know when they could meet again then.
He also didn’t have her phone number yet. It was a bit presumptuous to ask now, so he might as well go back and ask his uncle.
At this moment, the soldiers coming from the Mazha station had cleared the road blocked by the avalanche. After half an hour, the slightly yellow but too bright car lights came from the detour. Ye Jian, who had not left, looked at the driving lights. The smile deepened in her eyes.
The road ahead should be clear now.
She reminded the Tibetan soldiers who hadn’t noticed it, smiled, and said to Qin Xiu, “All is well now. You don’t have to worry that I will accidentally reveal your identity.”
The car lights hadn’t concealed the detour. Qin Xiu took a glance and then retracted his gaze. It was a bit uncomfortable. He walked towards Shenxian Bay as soon as the road wasn’t blocked, and she…was going to return to her unit as well.
“Which army are you serving now? Is it convenient to let me know?” Qin Xiu, who was planning to ask President Cao himself, asked directly without thinking, “I really appreciate your hard work this time. Without you, I really don’t know how to deal with all these. You’re like our lifesaver. Although I can’t repay what you’ve done for us, I hope to write you a thank you letter.”
Du Jiayi’s method earlier had reminded him that he, too, could use the same excuse to ask for Ye Jian’s contact information.
“I’m just a decentralized company, and I’m still a student.” Cadet troops were common. There would be juniors and seniors, but it was not normal to have young troops to perform such high-risk missions. Therefore, Ye Jian smiled bitterly, “Something happened, and so I was punished to come here to experience a real soldier’s hardships.”
Qin Xiu smiled when he heard it, “My uncle is always praising you. He said you’re the most obedient and best student in the Yunnan Province Middle School. It seems like that’s not entirely true. You actually did something wrong and was punished by your school, eh?”
So it turned out that she was a cadet in a military academy. Qin Xiu not only had joy in his voice but also a smile in his heart. Mrs. Qin loved girls who could study well.
It didn’t take long for Ye Jian to stop the conversation. Qin Xiu was a diplomat, a very capable diplomat. If she talked too much, she was afraid that he would use her words, so it was better to keep silent.
Besides, the soldiers from the Mazha Military Station had arrived. It was even more inconvenient to talk to Qin Xiu when the people who returned to the tent to rest had come out once again.
The soldiers from the Mazha Military Station had undoubtedly good news for the Cultural Engineering Troupe. Du Jiayi, who was squinting, walked out of the tent first when she heard some movements, and then Wei Jiayue, Liu Yuan, and Ma Ming followed behind. The soldiers secretly clapped their hands in the truck upon seeing this.
“Yay! The day has finally come! I thought I was going to be tired for several days.”
“The leader is talking to the instructor; please be quiet!” Du Jiayi warned Ma Ming softly, her eyes fell to Ye Jian again, and she glanced at Qin Xiu, who was standing in front,…the two of them really know each other?
