Chapter 117 A Military Photo
Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

Accompanied by Chen Haoran, Tang Xiaoya bid farewell to the hurried junior year and ushered in the hesitant senior year.

The dissertation is done and the internship is just around the corner.

At this time, Yuan Shaohua had already recruited non-commissioned officers directly through colleges and universities, and enlisted in the army.From December, he can have the enviable rank of corporal, and his salary will be raised to 5800 yuan.

School of Foreign Languages, small garden gazebo.

Tang Xiaoya watched Chen Haoran open the letter eagerly, expecting a little surprise inside.

In this era of rapid development of the communication system, few people send messages by letter.Therefore, every letter from Yuan Shaohua will be extraordinarily precious.

It's just that Tang Xiaoya's little surprises always come to nothing, because letters like this are not allowed to talk about life in the army.

"Wow, this one is even cooler than last time, it's so majestic. Chen Haoran, you already have three, should you give it to me this time?"

"I forgot again, it was shouting with names and surnames again."

Regarding the name, Tang Xiaoya actually called it casually.

She didn't expect that Chen Haoran, who usually had a hippie smile on his face, would care so much about such a small matter, and would deliberately correct it every time.

"Oh, I forgot, hehe."

"Don't pretend to be cute, it's useless."

"Haoran, I know I was wrong. Just give me this one, okay?"

"Well, that's about the same, I'll see you off."

One eye is full of vigorous and powerful pen writing, while the other eye is a picture of a heroic military uniform.

Tang Xiaoya's staring eyes made Chen Haoran feel uncomfortable and jealous.

He felt that Yuan Shaohua was not trying to fulfill his dream of military uniforms, he simply went after Tang Xiaoya's military complex.

At the same time, Chen Haoran had to doubt Yuan Shaohua's true intentions.

His intuition is very accurate, and his guess is completely correct.

Yuan Shaohua was really worried that the photos would not fall into Tang Xiaoya's hands and would be withheld by Chen Haoran, so he sent one after another.

"Why don't you write to me, remember what he said before?"

"What? What did he say?"

"Hehe, it's really nothing. When Yuan Shaohua was in his junior year, didn't Sun Zhibin ask me to persuade him not to join the army early? At that time, Yuan Shaohua said that if the army management was too strict and it was not convenient to make phone calls, he would write to me. Didn't tell you?"

"Oh, now that I think about it, I did say that."

"That's right, it scared me, hahaha."

Chen Haoran was very impressed about sending photos, but he really forgot about writing letters.

At this time, he suddenly realized, and finally understood why Yuan Shaohua sent the letter to himself.It turned out that it was not only for greetings among friends, but also for a more important reason, to avoid suspicion.

He felt that Yuan Shaohua was a real gentleman who knew how to measure and considered Tang Xiaoya, so he was indeed worthy of deep friendship.

"Comrade Xiaoya, I solemnly remind you that even if Yuan Shaohua writes to you in the future, you must read it with me, and you must not keep it private, and you must not... worship too much, understand?"

"Cut, be careful."

"Hurry up, will it work?"

"All right, all right, look at you, what's the deal with Yuan Shaohua?"

"Don't be joking, I'm not joking with you. Remember, in your heart, I can only be the coolest and most handsome, and everyone else is just a cloud."

"Okay, I got it, hurry up and reply."

"Well, it's up to you, and I'll write."

Chen Haoran took out a fountain pen and letter paper, and began to write in a hurry.

"Hi Yuan Shaohua, you see the words as you see them. I have good news for you. Xiaoya and I have received national scholarships this year, and we have already applied for them. Don't be envious. But there is also a very bad news, that is, the computer internship was rejected. It’s already November, isn’t it irritating? We plan to..."

At the end of the letter, Chen Haoran deliberately added another sentence, "The ownership of this photo belongs to Comrade Tang Xiaoya, please don't worry about it."

"Haoran, I want to put something in so that Yuan Shaohua can feel the breath of his alma mater."

"Well, let it go."

Tang Xiaoya smiled and picked up a yellowish leaf from the ground, and put it in the envelope.

She pressed it hard with her hands, but she was still worried that it was not flat enough, so she simply put the envelope under her buttocks and sat for several minutes before giving up.

"This is a tasteful reply, hahaha."

"Cut, that's not it. I'm afraid it will affect the thickness of the envelope, so don't return it to us, it would be a tragedy."

"Don't worry about it, it won't happen at all."

Q City, a company dormitory in a military region.

Yuan Shaohua looked at the replies one by one, full of thoughts.

In fact, everyone has their own expression habits. Yuan Shaohua can guess the content of the letter, which ones are from Tang Xiaoya's mouth, and which ones are Chen Haoran's own thoughts.

Every word, every sentence, he will read carefully and savor it carefully.

"Yuan Shaohua, are you reading the letter again?"

"The new one hasn't arrived yet, let's have a look at the old one first."

"Hey, it makes me feel itchy."

"You write too, it's more interesting than calling."

"No, my handwriting is too ugly, hahaha."

Yuan Shaohua opened the drawer and took out the wooden photo frame containing Tang Xiaoya's photo, a smile flashed across his face.

He caressed the glass surface, imagining what Tang Xiaoya was doing right now.

He guessed that [-]% of them were eating snacks and watching movies under the covers, or humming softly with a guitar in their arms.

"Yuan Shaohua, tell me the story of you and your girlfriend?"

Yuan Shaohua closed the drawer and looked at the curious Li Qingyang, not knowing how to explain the relationship between him and Tang Xiaoya.

"She's not my girlfriend."

"Stop coaxing me, look at it every day, your eyes are almost callused, it's not a girlfriend, what is it?"

"Really not, I went for a run."

"Hey, why do you sneak away when you mention your girlfriend? Wait for me, I'll go too."

"Then hurry up, save a while and then have a task."

"Don't worry, not today, hahaha."

Since Yuan Shaohua majored in computer science and could write good handwriting, he was quickly trained and took on network maintenance and other tasks.

Although life in the army is very boring and difficult, he never complains of being tired and still strictly demands himself.

As long as I have time, I will insist on running at night, just like I used to do in school.

Whenever this time, Yuan Shaohua is the happiest.

He always seems to be able to see, under the searchlight a thousand kilometers away, a girl is piling up a volleyball.

The sound of "bang bang bang" went straight to his heart, and it was the only motivation for Yuan Shaohua to persevere.

"Yuan Shaohua, what's her name and how old is she?"

"Who?"

"The one in your drawer, of course."

"Tang Xiaoya, this month... just turned 20."

"Not bad, not bad, at the average age."

"Well, indeed."

Li Qingyang patted Yuan Shaohua on the shoulder and laughed heartily.

The sky is gradually getting dark...

They ran five laps around the training ground, and then started to do pull-ups, then push-ups, and then a 400-meter obstacle run, until they were so tired that they lay on the ground and couldn't get up.

The weather in October is already a bit chilly, and the sweat-drenched clothes are blown by the wind, and they are suddenly cool and comfortable.

Yuan Shaohua panted heavily, and even though Li Qingyang babbled in his ear, he didn't say a word.

His mind had already gone to X City University.

It had been five days since the letter was sent out, and he was worried, wondering if Tang Xiaoya could receive his military uniform photo this time.

If not, he will continue to write and post.
