Chapter 1729: Chapter 1137

It’s already the second watch.

"Alright, you guys don’t need to worry about me anymore. I’d call this homesickness. I’ll be fine after a couple of days..." Chuxia tried hard to erase the worry in her eyes, smiling sweetly at the two people, "I just don’t believe you’re not at all unhappy right now."

"I’m really not at all unhappy..." Zhao Bingbing rolled up her sleeves, a face full of excitement, "Just thinking about the day I can trample Zhao Weiwei under my feet, I feel full of energy!"

"Hey, you did say you’d work hard not to be impulsive..." Chuxia quickly reminded her, "We can’t be the kind of people who go back on their word, okay?"

"Don’t worry, I’ve figured it out, I won’t be silly anymore. Besides..." Zhao Bingbing showed a rare hint of shyness, "I’m thinking of quickly finding a suitable man for myself, having one or a pair of kids as cute as Nannan and Beibei. If something were to happen, where would I go to have them? What’s more, to ruin my life for someone like Zhao Weiwei, how stupid would that be? Do I look like such a fool? I’m happy I can surpass Zhao Weiwei, not because I can take revenge on her."

After giving Zhao Bingbing a few looks, Chuxia sighed, "Alright, since you’ve put it that way, I’ll believe you."

"Now that’s the spirit..." Zhao Bingbing pointed excitedly at the scenery outside the window, "It’s so beautiful. I’ve grown this big, and this is the first time I’ve traveled so far."

Chuxia felt a bead of sweat drop, "It seems you’ve never really been far from home. It’s just a whole field of wheat, look at how happy you are, as if seeing some rare sight."

"This green stuff is actually wheat?" Zhao Bingbing looked surprised, "I thought it was grass. Is the wheat we eat grown from this little grass?"

"Pfft!"

A girl in the back seat burst out laughing and apologized with a flushed face, "Sorry, I didn’t mean to, my home is in the countryside. I couldn’t help it when I heard you say that."

"It’s nothing, it’s nothing..." Zhao Bingbing waved her hand generously, "I truly am a bit ignorant, can’t blame you for laughing. Actually, you’re much better than them..." pointing to Chuxia and Wu Jingbo, who were shaking with laughter, "The way these two act is really hateful, laughing at me on one side and acting innocent on the other!"

"If we weren’t worried about you losing face, would we need to hold back like this?" Chuxia rolled her eyes at her, "You’re the annoying one, we consider your feelings, and you take it as the opposite..." She said while poking Wu Jingbo, "Next time, let’s not make things hard on ourselves, deal?"

"Absolutely." Wu Jingbo brushed her hair, "I’ve got a headache from holding back, and now you’re complaining about me, what’s the point?"

Giving them a glare, Zhao Bingbing begrudgingly said, "You two just gang up to bully me..." Then she turned to look at the girl who had laughed earlier, "I’m Zhao Bingbing, from the Capital City, a former student of the Medical University. And you?"

"I’m Lv Xiaomei, also from the Capital City, working at the People’s Hospital..." she explained with a shy smile, "I also took the Medical University exam but didn’t get in."

"As long as you persevere, you’ll get in sooner or later..." Zhao Bingbing curiously looked at her, "Why did you join the medical team? Were you selected?"

"Yes, there was a notice posted at the hospital asking for volunteers. I thought it was an opportunity, so I signed up."

"You don’t seem like it, but you’re quite ambitious..." Zhao Bingbing looked her up and down, "Really can’t judge a book by its cover. You’re so quiet and easily embarrassed, wouldn’t have imagined you’d make such a choice."

"I..." Lv Xiaomei blushed again, "I truly love this kind of challenge."

"I believe you..." Zhao Bingbing nodded, "No matter the reason, if you’re not willing, you wouldn’t be sitting here."

Destiny brings us together. Let’s supervise each other, help one another, and strive for good results!"

"Sure, I won’t disappoint the party and the country’s expectations!"

Chuxia suddenly had a bead of sweat appear, wondering how the conversation changed into this style. Though she had been in this era for a while, such a style of dialog still made her feel goosebumps.

Noticing Chuxia’s expression, Zhao Bingbing whispered in her ear, "I didn’t really mean to talk like that, didn’t you notice everyone was leaning in to hear what we were saying?"

Lv Xiaomei, who was also leaning in to listen, quickly nodded, blinking at Chuxia.

Just this one action improved Chuxia’s impression of Lv Xiaomei. She hadn’t noticed others’ behavior earlier, but Zhao Bingbing and Lv Xiaomei’s reminder made her pay a bit of attention, and she found it to be so. This first meeting, and Lv Xiaomei could cooperate so well with Zhao Bingbing, showed she was really quick-witted.

A quick-witted, kind-hearted girl is someone Chuxia likes a lot. She greatly disliked dealing with people who were slow, muddle-headed, and argued over everything... just thinking about it gave her a headache!

After overcoming the initial homesickness, most people became eager to enjoy the scenery along the way...

Unlike previous tasks, there was no rest even at night, so everyone’s spirit dwindled after two days.

Until the last day, when the previously weary crowd suddenly felt invigorated again. Not because of rest, but because the barren and vast landscape filled them with a sense of mission and responsibility for their upcoming duties.

...

"Division Commander, what are you looking at?"

Zhou Hanliang came out of the tent and looked at Zhou Mikang standing at the tent entrance gazing into the distance, "What’s there to see? We live here every day, you could visualize the scene with your eyes closed. It’s amazing that the Division Commander can still enjoy it so much. Division Commander, can you tell me, how do you manage to find joy in hardship like this?"

"Hmph!" Zhou Mikang glared at him with a faint smile at the corner of his lips, "I can clearly tell you, my wife is coming soon, I’m looking forward to her. You, apart from being envious, are jealous. As we speak, your heart must be turning over with vinegar, right?"

Zhou Hanliang: "..." The Division Commander Tongzi is so terrible, knowing full well this is his sore point, yet still pokes right there. How will they happily work together in the future?

Thinking of this, Zhou Hanliang’s face pulled into a frown. If the Division Commander Tongzi frequently shows off his affection... oh heavens, just thinking about it makes life seem unbearable!
