Chapter 71 So Cool (1)

Ye Xingchen suddenly remembered the text in the elementary school textbook, "The Story of an Apple", and was moved again. These soldiers are indeed the cutest people.

Not long after, Li Yi went back and forth, running from a distance, Ye Xingchen's breathing tightened all of a sudden, his eyes fixed on behind him, hoping that the tall and straight figure would suddenly appear.

But... no...

How not?

Ye Xingchen's heart tightened suddenly, and many bad thoughts flashed through his mind, did something happen to him?
"So... where's your battalion commander?" She asked in a low voice.

Li Yi opened his lips, a little embarrassed, and said in a hoarse voice, "The battalion commander...he just received an order from the headquarters, and took a few people to another place...only walked for 5 minutes."

Hearing this, Ye Xingchen had an indescribable feeling in his heart, 5 minutes, why is it 5 minutes short?Feelings of disappointment and regret came faintly, but on the other hand, she thought that if the headquarters asked him to go to another place, it meant that he was fine, because he could still perform more difficult tasks... She was relieved that he was fine.

"I see." She smiled slightly, that smile was weak, but she didn't know it.

Li Yi was also a little embarrassed, and felt deeply sorry for Lou Xi and Ye Xingchen's miss, and said comfortingly, "Sister-in-law, the fire has been brought under control now, don't worry, the battalion commander will be fine. Just come back!"

"Yeah." Ye Xingchen nodded slightly.

The next time, it was a scene of eating in full swing. The soldiers were all hungry and thirsty. A squad sat in a circle, and each of them held a bowl of instant noodles in his hand, bowed his head and ate fiercely, and had no time to chew. I just swallowed it down, and then changed to another bowl. I poured down the whole bottle of mineral water, and everyone devoured it hungrily.

"Hey, eat slowly, it hurts your stomach..."

What responded to her was the sound of a piece of bald eating noodles.Ye Xingchen couldn't laugh or cry.

After eating and drinking, the soldiers were all satisfied, and there were simple smiles on their dark faces, as if they were not the ones who just got off the line of life and death.

A few soldiers were injured, but they were not serious. Those skin injuries were not worth mentioning to the soldiers of the special brigade. The medical staff wanted to bandage them, and they were still in the way, but seeing Ye Xingchen there, a They all looked like tigers turned into cats, obediently wrapped in gauze, sister-in-law had to give her face!
Then, it was time for Ye Xingchen and her colleagues to leave. Before leaving, she still couldn't help but look around at the bare hill, but there was still no one there.

She touched her pocket, and her fingertips touched the cold metal. It was the key to the new house, not the one he gave her before. During the renovation, workers came in and out, so she changed the lock again later. There were three keys in the lock, she took out one, and wanted Li Yi to hand it over to Lou Xi, if he came back, he could go home directly.

"That..." She secretly called Li Yi aside, faltering.

Like a monkey spirit, Li Yi immediately understood. After receiving the key, he gave a military salute with a "snap", "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will definitely live up to my trust and fulfill my mission!"

Ye Xingchen's face turned red, and he turned and ran away.

The road was bumpy, and Ye Xingchen took a truck back to Yunshu County, and stayed at the resettlement site for two days. As the fire on Yunwu Mountain became smaller and smaller, the situation in the disaster area gradually improved. The local medical resources can already bear the situation Next, the medical team began to retreat, and she also returned to the military hospital with everyone.

The truck turned around and gradually moved away from the disaster area, leaving a mess behind it.A fire brought countless disasters. Many people lost their wealth and homes in this fire, but as long as there are people, everything will be fine!
Back in Yunchuan City, back in the rented house, Shu Rao couldn't help but choked up after seeing her, "You're back, are you okay? Are you injured?"

"No." She replied with a smile.

"Really?" Shu Rao was worried, looked her up and down, and felt relieved when she saw that she was safe and sound, "It's fine, but I lost a lot of weight, I'll make you chicken soup tonight Hurry up and make up for it!"

"Give back the chicken soup, will you kill the chicken?" Shu Jing deliberately angered her.

"I can't, but with you!" Shu Rao said confidently.

"You don't let me do anything, you don't even let me be a security guard!" Apparently, Shu Jing's work as a security guard in the community was discovered by Shu Rao.

"Okay, Shu Baoan, please help me kill the chicken, okay?"

"That's pretty much the same! Isn't it, Sister Xingchen?"

The three talked and laughed, having a great time.

Life returned to normal, but Ye Xingchen had an extra habit!Watch the news on time every day.

The TV is still continuously reporting the fire in Yunwu Mountain. Although the fire has been brought under control, it has not been completely extinguished after all. Even if it is completely extinguished, it must be prevented from resurging, so the battle is far from over.

The forest fire brigade, the People's Liberation Army, and the medical team are still working hard. There are also some celebrities raising funds to support the disaster area, volunteers helping the victims rebuild their homes, and so on.

There is a special section in the daily news to report these. The frontline reporters took many touching pictures, most of which were for the cutest soldiers. They are not afraid of hardship or tiredness. deeply moved the audience.

Facing the camera, they always do more than they say. They prove themselves with practical actions. They are the most loyal defenders of the motherland!
Counting from the day when the fire broke out, it has been 14 days. For two whole weeks, the special ringtone set in Ye Xingchen's phone has not rang, and there has been no news from Lou Xi.

She called Luo Lan a few times and learned that Commissar Xiao was in the headquarters and hadn't been home for many days. Ye Xingchen really felt that being a family member of a soldier is really not easy, so she could only worry, You can't care, you can only wait, you can't greet, the best and most powerful support is that!Waiting, only waiting, silently waiting.

Sisi called Dad, Dad, and Ma Ma Ma Ma softly on the phone, and every sound made her heart tremble.

She secretly prayed that he would come back safely soon, hurry up!

That night, Ye Xingchen was still punctually sitting in front of the TV and watching the news. It was reported that the fire on Yunwu Mountain was finally completely and thoroughly extinguished, and the disaster was finally over.

The reporter was reporting to the camera when a figure suddenly flashed behind him, with a tall and straight body, a stern face, neat short hair, and resolute eyes.

Lou Xi!

Ye Xingchen stood up abruptly, leaned in front of the TV, and was about to take a closer look, but his figure had already disappeared.

He just hurried past the camera, and the picture disappeared in a flash, but she was sure that it was him!
Because in the next second, when the reporter turned around to interview, he found that there was no one behind him, and the director quickly switched back to the studio scene.

Ye Xingchen suddenly wanted to laugh, it's so cool that he refused the interview!
My heart, which had been tense for more than ten days, finally relaxed.

After successfully completing the task, Lou Xi led the soldiers of the special brigade back to the barracks overnight. After reporting the situation to the brigade leader, he returned to his residence. When he opened the door, he found the brand new key from his pocket. His fingertips were cold, but his heart was hot.

The next morning, the sun had already risen high, but it was still quiet in the barracks. The captain gave permission not to do morning exercises or training today, and to sleep as long as he wanted!
