Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander
Chapter 1744 - 1147: Looking For Me (2)Chapter 1744: Chapter 1147: Looking For Me (2)
"Everyone went out to familiarize themselves with the environment. We were afraid you wouldn’t find us when you got back, so we waited here for you..." Zhao Bingbing said while looking up and down at her, winking, "Did you meet your Division Commander?"
"Yes." There was nothing to deny, and Chuxia answered honestly, avoiding any unnecessary explanations, which left Zhao Bingbing, who was initially full of gossip, at a loss for words. Although Zhao Bingbing’s character was somewhat similar to Luo Xiaoqiong’s, they weren’t too familiar with each other, so she was too embarrassed to ask anything too probing.
"She just had a fight with Zhao Weiwei." Wu Jingbo shrugged at Chuxia, "They started clawing at each other as soon as we arrived. I think their fight won’t end anytime soon."
"What was the fight about?" Chuxia asked.
"She was hypocritically trying to show concern for me, and I snapped at her..." Zhao Bingbing pouted, "Clearly, she can’t wait for me to make a fool of myself but pretends to care. It makes me sick to look at her. People are indeed strange. When I couldn’t see through her façade, I thought she was smart and beautiful, a model for me. But now, just seeing her makes me nauseous, sigh..."
"Lin Chuxia..." Ye Meiru lifted the tent door and came in, smiling at Chuxia, "You’re finally back. I’ve been here several times and missed you each time."
"Why are you looking for me?" Chuxia looked at Ye Meiru indifferently. Earlier, when she was with Zhou Mikang, Ye Meiru had gone looking for him. Now she was saying things like this—haha, what a pretense?
Perhaps guessing what Chuxia was doubting, Ye Meiru explained, "I indeed went to find Division Commander Zhou, but it was for business. I came to find you for a personal matter."
"I thought with Zhou Mikang’s personality, he wouldn’t keep you for that long, so I came over a few times..." She shrugged, "I’m telling you all this without malice, just to show you how urgent I was to find you.
Because I know you must have reservations about me, or maybe your appearance here has something to do with me. So, I wanted to explain to you in advance, to avoid any unnecessary conflicts in our future work."
Chuxia gave her a faint smile, "Rest assured, I am someone who separates work from personal matters. If you really are as you claim, over time, I will naturally see it clearly.
If you come looking for me, still harboring intentions to scheme against or humiliate me, then sorry, I won’t entertain such actions. I didn’t come here to engage in petty jealousies with you.
No matter what you think, I must honestly tell you, I am here strictly for work, absolutely for work, with no connection to personal feelings.
"If it really has nothing to do with personal feelings, do you need to emphasize it so much?" Ye Meiru shook her head with a smile, "Lin Chuxia, we were once acquainted, and I understand your personality to some extent. Your current attitude and words only illustrate that your presence here has something to do with your unease about Zhou Mikang.
I know if I asked you to talk outside, you’d refuse. Anyway, there are no outsiders here, so I’ll be blunt. After leaving the base, I’ve already put the past behind me.
You may never imagine the suffering I endured during that year. Initially, I hated you, hated you enough to want to kill you immediately. I even swore that if I escaped, I’d find a way for you to experience the same suffering I did.
However, when I actually got the chance to escape, I lacked the courage to seek revenge because I understood too well that if I dared to do anything to you, Zhou Mikang would repay me double.
I don’t want to take risks on uncertain matters, especially when I have a man who is sincerely kind to me. No matter my feelings for him, I cannot hurt him anymore.
Of course, saying that I’ve liked you since then and hoped for your happiness would be a lie. We will never become friends, but we also won’t be enemies again.
I sought you out immediately to tell you these things because I don’t want us to have any unnecessary misunderstandings in the future due to a lack of understanding.
The reason I go to Zhou Mikang is solely for business. I don’t go to others because many people judge me with bias. No matter how bad things get for Ye Meiru, it’s not up to those people to look down on me.
Also, if you truly care about other women coveting your husband, be good to him, and observe carefully. Don’t target the wrong person."
"Are you so eager to tell me this out of fear?" Chuxia looked at her with a half-smile, "Ye Meiru, just as you claimed to understand me, I understand you. No matter how a person’s character changes, there are always traces of the original.
Whether you’ve figured things out or not, if you weren’t worried that Zhou Mikang might send you back, you wouldn’t be in such a rush to tell me this.
As you said, even if we’re not enemies, we’ll never be friends. If you could, you’d be delighted to see me get jealous and anxious, so why rush to clarify?
Rest assured, as long as you don’t do anything excessive to me, I won’t interfere in your matters. I admire your ability to leave that place, and I hope you can truly become someone I admire.
Of course, you might say you don’t care whether I admire you or not, but I still want to express my intentions to you, to prevent those unnecessary misunderstandings from festering further."
