Code Name: Flame

Chapter 7 Exam
When Chen Jia walked into the cafe, he saw Wang Wei in the corner waving to him.

"It's been a long wait. Huh? Why didn't you order coffee?"

Wang Wei blushed again, and replied in a low voice, "I didn't bring any money, so I sat here and waited for you."

Chen Jia didn't take it seriously either, these days, he had already experienced Wang Wei's stinginess.

After the two of them went out for dinner, the girl gave her money once, but Chen Jia didn't feel like asking for it. As a result, from July to October, she didn't give a penny of living expenses.

It's good now, I can't even give up the coffee money.But this girl saved the money and didn't see her buying clothes for herself. Where did the money go?

Wang Wei's teaching salary is not low, more than 60 yuan, plus various subsidies, it is about 20 yuan, which adds up to less than [-] yuan.

The most irritating thing is the rent. Chen Jia is 25, and Wang Wei is [-]. Originally, Chen Jia was put together by the landlord, but this girl went to the landlord and asked for five yuan back.

If you want to come back, it should be given to Chen Jia, right?No, this girl, she just put it in her pocket. She said that it was her who wanted to come back, so naturally it belonged to her.

"Two cups of coffee, two croissants, and a tiramisu cake."

Even the tip is three yuan in total, no wonder Xiaonizi is reluctant to part with it.This foreign thing is really not something that ordinary people can afford.Fortunately, in addition to his salary of 80 yuan, Chen Jia usually has bonuses and various subsidies of as much as 60 to [-] yuan, so he is much more generous than Wang Wei.

"Ah, this coffee tastes good. By the way, why did you come to sign up?" Wang Wei asked after taking a sip of coffee and another bite of cake.

"Oh, I don't think there is any future in being a translator. Don't think that you can make a good profit now, but it will be difficult to talk about it in the future. Besides, the Japanese are rampant now, killing us Chinese in Northeast and North China. A man can't stand it."

Wang Wei looked at Chen Jia's righteous and dignified look, and curled her mouth, "Cut! You have really hidden people who don't know. To be honest, why?"

"Hey hey, didn't I see you sign up, and I'm here too."

Seeing Chen Jia's cheap expression with a hippie smile, Wang Wei's pretty face flushed slightly, and she gave a soft pooh, "I don't believe it. I saw the newspaper you cut out. You planned to sign up half a month ago, right?"

After Chen Jia finished the last bite of the croissant, she reluctantly licked her fingers, "Oh, it's delicious, but it's too expensive. It's worth our food for three days."

Wang Wei looked at the croissant on the plate, then at the half-eaten tiramisu cake in front of her, and sighed, "Why don't we take it back and give it to Niu Niu and the others."

"Eat the cake, who will eat half of it? This croissant was originally brought back for Niuniu and the others to eat."

Wang Wei immediately became happy, and quickly picked up a spoon to dig the cake to eat, um, it was so sweet.

When they got home, the children shared a small piece of bread. Unexpectedly, the children dispersed and took them home to share with the adults, which made Chen Jia's nose a little sore.

Thinking of the life in the previous life, the gap is simply one day and one place.

A week later, I will start the culture test, write an essay, and add more than a dozen math questions.

It took Chen Jia an hour to finish the exam, and she was the first to hand in the paper, and then sat outside in the flower bed and waited for Wang Wei to come out.

As the exam ended, a large group of people came out, and Wang Wei in the crowd rushed over excitedly, "How is it? Is the question difficult?"

Chen Jia stood up and patted the dust off his buttocks, then raised his head to the sky, "Try your ears."

"Look at your complacency. Could it be that you can't pass the test?"

Chen Jia pointed to his nose, and replied exaggeratedly: "I, Chen Jia, can this kind of question stump me? Let me tell you, none of your teachers may be as good as me, you know?"

"Fuck you, let's see you bragging."

Chen Jiazhen wasn't bragging, these topics were really easy for him, the composition was at least not bad, well-organized, and the handwriting was correct, even if it wasn't the best, it wouldn't be too bad.

The neighbors in the neighborhood knew that they were both going to take the military academy exam, and they were very reluctant to give up. They all came to inquire about the exam situation, and even the landlord, Mrs. Yao, came to join in the fun.

It is true that she is not willing to part with her. Among her tenants, these two are the ones who pay the rent with ease. They never default on the rent and never cause trouble.

Wang Wei has a good relationship with her, so when Wang Wei asked for the five yuan she cheated Chen Jia back, she gave it back very happily.

"Hey, you two are really serious. An interpreter from a big company, a student from a girls' school, what kind of military school do you want to go to? The money to be a soldier is not much, and it's dangerous. Now there's a war going on outside, you know? Oh, I'm so impulsive The group is scattered."

Mrs. Yao shook her head when she saw the two of them, and her curly hair shook accordingly.

Mr. Liu disagreed with Mrs. Yao's point of view, "Mrs. Yao understands, why is it good to be a soldier? Look, none of the officials who are now from the Whampoa Military Academy, they will be high-ranking officials in the future, I understand I want to talk nonsense."

"Hey, the one who fights to kill people? Only those who survive are eligible to be officials. How dangerous it is."

"Mrs. Yao, Yila and Ila are both talented people. It's good to be in charge behind the scenes. Youfa will let them charge forward and fight for their lives."

Niuniu was also reluctant, and took Wang Wei's hand and asked, "Sister, when are you leaving?"

Wang Wei stroked her head and smiled, "The list will be announced in three days, and I will know when to leave."

Mr. Liu walked over and patted Chen Jia on the shoulder: "I brought back a few bottles of good wine from Hong Kong. Anyway, tomorrow is Sunday, so we won't go home tonight until we're drunk."

"Okay, if you don't get drunk, you won't go home."

That night, Wang Wei was drunk, Mrs. Yao was drunk, Aunt Liu was drunk, Old Liu was drunk, and Chen Jia... was also drunk.

It feels so good to be drunk, like flying through the clouds and riding the fog, it seems real and unreal, I really want to never wake up again.

The results came out, and both Chen Jia and Wang Wei were admitted.I will go to the school to report on November [-]th, and it will only be more than ten days. Those who should resign will resign, those who should be tidied up, and those who should be given away will be given away.

Chen Jia secretly dug out the gold, but did not fill up the hole. Anyway, the big wardrobe was pressed down, so no one else could see it.

Chen Heng was very reluctant, and originally wanted to persuade him to stay, but Chen Jia said something: the Northeast fell, North China fell, there must be someone to fight.

When these words came out, Chen Heng didn't persuade him anymore, but just slapped him hard.At the time of settlement, the accountant gave an extra 200 yuan, saying that it was Chen Heng's order.

When Chen Jia got home, she handed the 200 yuan to Wang Wei: "Our company heard that you were going to join the army, so we paid 400 yuan more, [-] yuan per person."

Wang Wei happily took the money, counted it, put it in the small bag contentedly, then stretched out her hand and spread it in front of Chen Jia.

"what?"

"How about two hundred?"

"That'smine."

"I'm poor and have no money."

"The two hundred I just gave you is not money!"

"Not enough, will you give it?"

Chen Jia was furious for a while, why?
Wang Wei got 400 yuan out of thin air. She was so happy that she ran upstairs, changed her clothes and ran outside.

"Why are you going? It's time for dinner."

"I'll come back as soon as I go. If I don't come back, you are not allowed to eat, do you hear me?"

The last one had no words, and the person had already left the courtyard.

Damn, this woman is really good, anywhere is good, but she is blind to money.

Niu Niu and the others waited with Chen Jia for a long time. Niu Niu couldn't help but ran to the entrance of the alley to look at it a few times, and finally came back when it was dark.

"Hurry up and eat, I'll wait for you."

Chen Jia was busy taking the dishes out of the cupboard, Niuniu served the rice, and the other children moved stools and chopsticks.

Chen Jia noticed the beads of sweat on the tip of Wang Wei's nose, and couldn't help being surprised, "You ran back? Was someone chasing you?"

Wang Wei shook her head and said with a smile: "Isn't it because I was afraid that you would be hungry, so I ran back."

After dinner, Chen Jia wiped the table and said, "Mrs. Yao settled the utility bills in the afternoon. It's [-] yuan in total. I count you as [-] yuan."

After speaking for a long time, there was no reply, and when she looked up, Wang Wei was looking at herself pitifully, "Why? I just gave you 200 yuan, and the [-] yuan is still mine."

When Chen Jia said this, she regretted it in her heart. Seeing that Wang Wei was struggling and she was not short of money, she found an excuse to give her two hundred, but in the end she paid back two hundred.

It's not really distressing, it's just a feeling that you've lifted a brick and hit yourself in the foot.Can't you say one hundred?If she blackmailed her another one hundred, exactly two hundred wouldn't it work?Mouth cheap.

Wang Wei still did not speak, still looking pitiful.

Chen Jia threw the rag on the table, "It's too much, you don't even want to pay even two yuan?"

"I have no money. Someone needs money urgently. I borrowed... borrowed it."

"Borrowed?" Chen Jia was completely dizzy. The 200 yuan was covered all the way home from Sichuan Road by himself, and the other [-] yuan was his old capital, so he borrowed it?

"Then how do you go to Nanjing? The money for the train ticket is gone?"

Wang Wei shook her head and said aggrievedly: "I have borrowed all the money for an urgent matter at home. Why don't you lend me some first, and I will pay you back when I make money."

Chen Jia sat down on the chair, tears almost fell down, sin...
