“Commander, you’re back?”
Zhou Mikang had just taken the docunts out of his bag when the office door was pushed open, and Zhou Hanliang walked in.
“Hmm,” he responded indifferently and continued with the task at hand.
“The study session went pretty well, didn’t it?”
“Hmm.”
“Commander, didn’t you say it would be another week?”
“Hmm?”
“No problem, no problem.
I was just curious.
Actually, I missed you a lot and was really looking forward to your return.
And now that I’ve seen you, I’m so excited, heh heh…”
“Hmph!” Zhou Mikang snorted coldly and waved his hand dismissively.
“Go busy yourself with your work.”
“Commander, may I report to you about the work during this period?”
“Haven’t you reported to every day?”
“Well…” Zhou Hanliang chuckled awkwardly, “it’s never quite clear over the phone, and I’m afraid there might be so omissions.”
“You think saying it now won’t leave out anything?” Zhou Mikang glanced at him.
“Prepare and hand a report.
If there’s still sothing missing, you know what to do.”
“Yes!” Zhou Hanliang exited the office listlessly.
He was just asking for trouble, wasn’t he?
But heaven knows how anxious he felt inside.
If the boss found out…, would he chop his head off?
Without realizing it, he shrank his neck and with a “shh” sound, slid into his own office, pondering over the work report he had to write.
After writing a few characters, he quickly got up, walked to the door, looked around, and then swiftly headed toward the Division Commander’s office.
Xu Zhenghong was sipping tea and reading a military newspaper when he heard a knock.
He put down the paper.
“Co in.”
“Division Commander…” Zhou Hanliang took a few big steps to Xu Zhenghong’s desk.
“Division Commander, did you know the Commander has returned?”
“What do you think?” Xu Zhenghong eyed him with a speechless look.
As a Division Commander, wouldn’t it be terribly unqualified of him not to know his own soldier had returned?
“No, no, that’s not what I ant…” Zhou Hanliang hurried to explain, “What I an is, what about…
the thing we’ve been taking care of?”
“What about it?” Xu Zhenghong looked puzzled.
“Xiao Zhou, are you losing your mind from fright?
We just recruited so female soldiers.
We didn’t do anything else; what’s there to be afraid of?”
“That I’m obviously not scared of, but…” Zhou Hanliang leaned forward and lowered his voice, “about the lady’s visit tomorrow…”
Xu Zhenghong’s body jolted.
“Oh no, oh no, how could I forget about this?
The kid said he’d be back in a week, and popping up all of a sudden like this, how are we going to deal with the plans behind the scenes?”
“Could you find a way to transfer the Commander…”
Xu Zhenghong’s eyes lit up.
“Draw the tiger out of the mountain?”
Zhou Hanliang was at a loss for words.
“You could say that.”
“But there’s nothing that could draw the tiger out of the mountain right now…” Xu Zhenghong said, massaging his forehead in pain, “Why on earth did he co back early?
Oh dear…”
“Division Commander, please, stop repeating those words.
What we need now is a solution…” Zhou Hanliang wore a pained expression, “If the Commander learns that I’ve reported the matter to his lady behind his back and even helped her, he’d definitely flay alive.
It’s not that I’m scared of being skinned, but the key issue is, if he dismisses , that would be troubleso.
Division Commander, you must think of a solution.
I did everything according to your instructions.
At this ti, you can’t just leave in the lurch…”
“Stop rambling!” Xu Zhenghong glared at Zhou Hanliang, “Aren’t I trying to co up with a solution?
Why are you babbling on?”
“Right, you think, I won’t talk.” Zhou Hanliang sat up straight in his chair as he spoke, his eyes following Xu Zhenghong’s pacing back and forth.
“Dong dong…”
A sudden knock at the door startled both of them.
Zhou Mikang, who walked in, caught the expressions of the two perfectly and frowned.
“What kind of mischief are you two plotting?”
“None!”
The two exclaid in unison.
“If there’s none, then why are you scared?” Zhou Mikang’s gaze turned toward Zhou Hanliang.
“Weren’t you writing a work report?
Why have you co here?”
“I…” Zhou Hanliang’s mind was a ss, and he chuckled awkwardly, “I…”
“What ‘I’?” Zhou Mikang grabbed him by the collar, forcing him to look straight at him, “What exactly happened?
Tell the truth.”
“I…” Zhou Hanliang’s mind suddenly cleared, and he quickly said, “I…
Doudou and I had a bit of a quarrel, and I felt all mixed up inside, so I ca to the Division Commander for help with the reconciliation.”
Zhou Mikang snorted coldly.
“What business is it of the Division Commander if you and your girlfriend are having a quarrel?”
“I wanted to get Doudou into the dical team.
On the day of the selection, she happened to have diarrhea and missed it.
She’s been angry with for these past few days.
Ah, I was originally going to ask for the Commander’s help, but…” Zhou Hanliang rubbed his head, “but when you told to leave, Commander, I didn’t dare to speak up.”
“Really?”
“Of course, it’s true.” Zhou Hanliang’s face was filled with distress.
“Doudou gave an ultimatum today.
If I don’t get a definitive answer for her, she’ll break up with .
Commander, you know I’m not young anymore, and looking as old as I do, having a girl like Doudou willing to be with is my good fortune.
Moreover, I genuinely like her.
Now, because of this, her parents have also started to look down on .
That day, it was I who took her out for buns that caused the diarrhea.”
“Is what he’s saying true?” Zhou Mikang turned to Xu Zhenghong.
“Division Commander Xu, I want the truth.”
Xu Zhenghong nodded, “That’s right, Hanliang was talking about this matter.” He then added with a bitter smile, “I don’t even know if I’m the Division Commander or you are, always threatening people when you talk, sigh…”
“Here, take this.” Zhou Mikang handed over the notebook he was holding to Xu Zhenghong, “Haven’t you always wanted the training materials for the 1st Division of the 58th Army?
I’ve got them for you.”
“Really?” Xu Zhenghong’s eyes lit up, “Kid, not bad, how did you get it?
How did that old fox give this treasure to you?”
“All you need to worry about is whether or not it’s okay.
As for how I got it, does it matter?” Zhou Mikang walked to the door, saw Zhou Hanliang still sitting there in a daze, and frowned, “How long are you planning to sit here?”
“I’m leaving now, leaving right now…” Zhou Hanliang said with an embarrassed smile, “Commander, I’ve realized that love really makes one stupid, don’t you think?
I’ve never made such an error before, right?”
“Hmph!”
Commander Tongzi, can’t you communicate with in a normal human way?
Hanliang Tongzi was grumbling inwardly, but dared not show any sign of it on his face, “Commander, Division Commander hasn’t given approval yet, what do you think?”
“For the culture class, you need to pass at least.
Have Liang Xiangyang set so questions for Yun Doudou to answer.
If she qualifies, then we’ll make an exception and recruit her…” Zhou Mikang said, then suddenly turned his head so fast that Zhou Hanliang instinctively stepped back—almost collided into, he thought.
“Why haven’t you reported the dical team matter to ?”
Zhou Hanliang smacked his forehead violently, annoyance on his face, “Commander, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, I’ve been so busy that I forgot to report it along with the other unit matters.
After all, Captain Liang is in charge of it, and there was no need to report directly to …
I…
I just forgot.”
“Hmph!”
Commander Tongzi, can’t you change your way of communicating?
Staring at the back of Zhou Mikang’s head, Zhou Hanliang felt resentful.
“Oh, right…” Zhou Mikang suddenly stopped, then waved his hand dismissively, “Never mind, just go.”
After a mont’s hesitation, Zhou Hanliang said, “Commander, there’s sothing I’m not sure if I should ntion to you.”
“Speak your mind.”
“It’s just…
Lin Chuxia is among the dical team mbers.”
“So what if she is?” Zhou Mikang said abruptly turning around, frowning at Zhou Hanliang, “Who did you say was there?”
“Lin Chuxia.”
“Recruited through normal channels?”
“Of course!”
“Then it’s fine,” Zhou Mikang said, turning back around, “As long as she was recruited through normal channels, it’s fine.”
“Yes.” Zhou Hanliang rolled his eyes, Do you need to repeat it?
“Wait!”
Zhou Hanliang jumped back in fright, “Commander, can you not always scare people like this out of the blue, please?”
“You haven’t been blabbering about Lin Chuxia to my family, have you?”
“No.” Zhou Hanliang quickly shook his head, “How would I dare without your word?”
“Really?”
“Really!” Zhou Hanliang said solemnly, “I wouldn’t dare lie to you, right?” Shouldn’t it be, I wouldn’t lie to you if not to others?
“Hmm.”
Watching Zhou Mikang continue walking, Zhou Hanliang’s steps were a bit timid, fearing that the other would suddenly turn around and step on his feet.
Just now, it really hurt when he stepped on him.
However, Commander Tongzi’s expressions were so scarce that he couldn’t judge whether what he had done was right or wrong.
Could it be that he had misunderstood Commander Tongzi?
Was his sentint for Lin Chuxia rely pity at the mont, and he had forgotten about it right after?
If that was the case, then consider it pity for that pitiful child; he didn’t even know if she could endure the intense training of the army.
Sigh…
Zhou Hanliang suddenly felt that he was showing signs of ageing precisely because he worried too much.
If he could be like Commander Tongzi, he definitely wouldn’t look so old.
Huh, why is Commander Tongzi turning right?
Isn’t his office to the left?
“Commander…” Zhou Hanliang hurried after him, “Where are you going?”
“What do you think?” Zhou Mikang turned back to look at him coldly, “Where do you think I’m going?”
“I…
I wouldn’t dare guess.”
“Is there anything you don’t dare to do?” Zhou Mikang glared at him and kept walking.
“Commander, you’re back?” Halfway there, they ran into Zeng ili, who ca forward with a smile to greet them.
“Hmm,” Zhou Mikang replied, “Where are you going?”
“To have a al.” Zeng ili looked puzzled at Zhou Hanliang, not used to Commander Tongzi suddenly taking such interest in her.
“What about the team mbers?” Zhou Hanliang quickly asked.
“So have gone to eat, so are doing recovery exercises, and the rest are doing morning drills.”
Zhou Mikang frowned and strode toward the playing field.
Zhou Hanliang quickly followed suit.
After hesitating, Zeng ili also changed direction.
