Chapter 8

"I told you to come up with me!" He Xiaoyu said again, his tone still stern, "Why are you like this? When you arrive at my house, you go up there without hesitation. Why do you act like a thief? You have to wait until my mother leaves." Dare to come out? Are you a man?" Liu Xiaofei was really taken aback, not knowing why Xiao Yu got so angry.Xiao Yu still asked sternly: "Can you go up?"

Liu Xiaofei got out of the car involuntarily.He Xiaoyu turned around and entered the corridor: "Put the bicycle over there and lock it. Let's go!" Liu Xiaofei followed her.After entering the house, He Xiaoyu pressed him on the sofa, and then she turned on the electric fan made in the Soviet Union, and the electric fan blew on him, as if the helicopter was about to take off, the wind was definitely strong enough.Then He Xiaoyu brought out the mung bean soup from the refrigerator, scooped up a large bowl and handed it to him: "Drink it all!" Liu Xiaofei took it and drank it quickly, and it immediately cooled down to the bone.He Xiaoyu stood in front of him, frowning coldly: "What do you mean?"

"I..." Liu Xiaofei didn't know what to say, so he faltered.He Xiaoyu was really angry: "What are you? It's such a hot day, why don't you come up? Does my mother treat you as an outsider? Or does my father treat you as an outsider? Tell me!"

"I'm afraid..." "What are you afraid of?!" He Xiaoyu became more and more angry, "What are you afraid of, Liu Xiaofei?! Don't you always brag to me that you are not afraid of anything? You still want to be a scout? Do you still want to be a fighting hero? Why are you afraid of my mother? Has my mother told you a word? When will it be bad for you to come to play at home?"

"I'm afraid your mother misunderstood..." "What is the misunderstanding?" He Xiaoyu pointed at his nose with his waist stuck, "Speak!" In front of Liu Xiaofei's nose. "The college entrance examination is coming soon, I dare not tell you this." Liu Xiaofei said in a low voice. "What?" He Xiaoyu's voice began to tremble.Liu Xiaofei didn't speak. "Say, what are you talking about?"——In this point, He Xiaoyu inherited her father, but she just couldn't bear to keep something from her in front of her, so she must find out. "I like you..." Liu Xiaofei held back for a long time before choking out a sentence.He Xiaoyu was stunned.Liu Xiaofei didn't dare to look up: "I said it, I didn't want to say it now, for fear of affecting you. I came here just to see you." "Go! You go!" He Xiaoyu suddenly became angry and picked up the cushions on the sofa Just hit Liu Xiaofei.Liu Xiaofei dodged and was beaten up: "Xiaoyu, can't it be like this? If you don't want to, just pretend I didn't say anything? After the college entrance examination, you can clean up and I'll have time..." Xiaoyu's face turned green: "What did you say! "

"Is it okay if I didn't say it?" Liu Xiaofei was really convinced this time, and said carefully.Xiaoyu picked up the cushion again and threw it at him: "What do you think I am?! If you say you like it, you like it? If you say you don't like it, you don't like it? Let me tell you, Liu Xiaofei, you have been pulling my braids since I was a child and scaring me with earthworms in my pencil case. It made me cry, this account has not been settled yet! How dare you say such things to me?"

"You, you still remember?" Liu Xiaofei dodged in a panic. "I remember it clearly!" He Xiaoyu cried out of anger, and cried while smashing, "If you say you like it, you like it, but if you say you don't like it, you don't like it?! Who do you think you are?!"

"Don't cry, I was wrong..." Liu Xiaofei was really scared. "You are right, what are you wrong about! You, Liu Xiaofei, are always right!" He Xiaoyu yelled out what her mother scolded her father when she was anxious for some reason, and she burst into tears. "I, I didn't mean that!" Seeing He Xiaoyu crying very sadly, Liu Xiaofei grabbed the cushion and pulled hard, trying to snatch it away, but instead pulled He Xiaoyu over and bumped into his arms. "Hooligans! Smelly hooligans!" He Xiaoyu cursed, and slapped Liu Xiaofei with a wave of his hand, but he grabbed his wrist and stopped his hand in the air.Xiaoyu's face was very close to his, and she couldn't help scolding him: "Let go of me! You stinky bastard!" She exhaled like blue, and it entered Liu Xiaofei's heart and lungs at once.He Xiaoyu was taken aback by him, and his voice became trembling: "I warn you, Liu Xiaofei, let go of me quickly! Otherwise, I will call someone!" Liu Xiaofei's voice also trembled: "Listen to me."

"Do not listen!"

"I like you!" Liu Xiaofei's voice became firm.He Xiaoyu was stupid and just looked at Liu Xiaofei like that.

"Really, I like you." Liu Xiaofei emphasized.He Xiaoyu stared at him blankly, with tears all over his face. "I have liked you since I was a child. I pulled your braids because I like you. I put earthworms in your pencil case to scare you because I like you. I..." "You treat me like this when you like me?" He Xiaoyu is real Sad, "What do you mean you didn't say it? You said it, you said it, why did you change your words..." He Xiaoyu realized that he had said too much—the offensive and defensive relationship on the scene immediately changed.He Xiaoyu was really passive this time.A fool can understand what this means, and Liu Xiaofei is not a fool—well, he sold himself—He Xiaoyu is stupid, but Liu Xiaofei is alive.

"Xiao Yu." Liu Xiaofei said.He Xiaoyu's voice fluttered: "What are you doing?" "I like you." Liu Xiaofei's breath hit He Xiaoyu's face all of a sudden, with a boyish smell of sweat.

Girls usually like to say that boys stink when they get together, let alone the smell when they return to the classroom after playing football.But who is telling the truth?Girls' thoughts, only girls know——He Xiaoyu blushed to the neck.Her eyes were lowered, and her long eyelashes fell—flickering, like butterflies.Liu Xiaofei's heart also flickered, and he squeezed He Xiaoyu's wrist a little harder, and He Xiaoyu fell into his arms softly, closing his eyes and saying nothing.Only the soft breath fluttered around his neck like a caterpillar.

"I like you." Liu Xiaofei's voice began to waver, but he didn't know how to say this sentence again. "Really?" Liu Xiaofei couldn't believe his ears, but He Xiaoyu really asked in such a soft voice.He nodded: "Really, really." "No regrets?" He Xiaoyu's voice was still so soft. "Don't go back on your word." This time Liu Xiaofei was firm, and there was something unsteady in his heart.

"One lifetime?" "One lifetime." He Xiaoyu sighed for a long time: "Bastard, why did you say it until now?"

Liu Xiaofei's brain shook, he felt a kiss on his face, before he could react, Xiao Yu jumped away.Liu Xiaofei still wanted to go there.He Xiaoyu blushed, panting and said: "Don't come here!" Liu Xiaofei was stunned: "What's wrong? Xiaoyu?" He Xiaoyu said: "Go home!" Liu Xiaofei thought he heard it wrong, He Xiaoyu said again : "Go home and study hard."

"I..." "Let's talk after the college entrance examination." He Xiaoyu calmed down and said to himself.Liu Xiaofei watched He Xiaoyu for a long time, watching the blush slowly go down her face.She said quietly: "Remember what you said. Let's go." Liu Xiaofei could only turn around.When he was going out, he turned his head and said, "Tomorrow... can I still come to see you?" He Xiaoyu hesitated.

"I'll leave after just one look at you." Liu Xiaofei said earnestly—no, even a little pitifully.He Xiaoyu's heart softened, but she shook her head: "No, we'll talk about it after the college entrance examination! Go back! I'm going to review." Liu Xiaofei's heart began to beat, but he turned around obediently and left.He Xiaoyu ran to the window of her room and opened the light blue curtains. She saw Liu Xiaofei coming out of the corridor, riding his bicycle as if flying, and singing: "Forward, forward, our team to the sun..."

He Xiaoyu suddenly remembered that her mother had told herself that when her father joined the army, he sang this song to bid farewell to his mother.He Xiaoyu's heart trembled - is this reincarnation?

Phalanx - camouflage phalanx - camouflage phalanx of 133 fighters.The phalanx is as motionless as a mountain under the scorching sun; the phalanx is dominating the dragon in silence.The dark and thin face under the helmet contained infinite power in the silence.Beads of sweat slid down his cheeks and down his Adam's apple.He Zhijun looked at his phalanx, as if looking at his lost youth.Many years ago, he also stood in such a phalanx, but at that time it was called the Reconnaissance Brigade—but today, it is called the Special Reconnaissance Brigade.

Lin Qiuye stood at the end of the viewing seats on the side below the parade platform. The mid-level officers and young staff officers from various departments of the military region were already in place, and the press officers were busy with their work with cameras and video cameras.Faced with such a scene, Lin Qiuye's heart was also beating thumpingly.Country, army, honor, mission—these unfamiliar terms hit Lin Qiuye's heart again, and she thought she had forgotten it long ago.But in the face of such a small but solemn camouflage phalanx, and the piercing young eyes on those dark and thin faces, her long-lost excitement and pride once again penetrated like bamboo shoots. Come out and occupy her whole mind.She tried her best not to cry.Seeing Lao He's stalwart body standing on the parade platform, she felt a different kind of pride in her heart—look, this is my man, he is the protagonist of today!
Yes, He Zhijun is the protagonist today, and no one can change this.Today is the day when the special reconnaissance brigade of the A military region confers the military flag—in other words, it is the birthday.

At 8:50, the chief of staff who was on duty shouted at the top of his voice: "Salute——" Swish—a uniform piece of white gloves was raised.The convoy of the head of the military region entered the playground and stopped beside the rostrum under the guidance of the pickets.The first to come down was the commander of the military region, followed by the old man, and then the political commissar, the chief of staff, and the director of the political department. What a star-studded crowd!The veteran generals walked up to the rostrum amid the salute of the officers and soldiers, and took their seats according to their name cards.

"Libi—" Swish—it was another neat sound.Lin Qiuye's heart was beating even harder. Although she had been in the General Hospital of the Military Region for many years, she had seen almost all of these chiefs, and some of them were even familiar to her—but she had never seen them together.But today, for the sake of this small independent unit of more than 100 people, they are all here, and they are not as amiable as they were in the General Hospital of the Military Region in the past. She couldn't hear anything clearly, and when she came back to her senses, the chief had finished speaking, and it was time to present the flag——she saw her man solemnly accepting the military flag handed over by the commander with both hands, and then slapped it neatly. salute.The old man stood up slowly, and a staff officer quickly picked up the microphone on the table.The old man pushed him away without even looking at him.

"What date is it today?!" The old man asked sharply—his old voice suddenly became so majestic and vigorous, not at all like an elderly person.

"July 1991, 7!" The phalanx of more than 7 people roared in unison, and the sound resounded through the sky. "What happened today in history?!" The old man's eyes radiated a cold light like an eagle. "July 100th Incident!" The phalanx roared in unison——Lin Qiuye's heart trembled. He was preoccupied with his daughter's college entrance examination, and he really forgot that today is the anniversary of the July [-]th Incident.This soldier is really unqualified.Before he had time to think about it, the old man asked again: "Do you know why you chose to set up the special reconnaissance brigade of our military region today?!"

"Know!" More than 100 young men roared in unison.

"Why?!" The old man waved his right hand in the air. "Don't forget the national humiliation! Remember the responsibility!" The voices of the boys echoed in the valley. "By the way!" The old man seemed to be younger all of a sudden, "July 1937, 7, the Japanese devils fired the first shot of the all-out war of aggression against China at Lugou Bridge! This is the national humiliation day of our Chinese army! It is also the commemoration of our Chinese army Day! Because our country was invaded and our people were bleeding! But we won! So we must always remember this day! Choose this day to be the day when the Special Reconnaissance Brigade was established, so that you can remember—absolutely not Let history repeat itself!"

"Don't forget the national humiliation! Remember your responsibility!" Fang Zhen yelled three times in a row—Lin Qiuye's heart was shocked three times in a row.He Zhijun raised his right fist towards the brightly colored military flag: "I swear!"

Swish—more than 100 elite fighters raised their right fists: "I swear!"

"I will keep in mind my mission and responsibility!" - Phalanx roared in unison: "I will keep in mind my mission and responsibility!"

"Brave and tenacious, never back down!"——It is still so loud: "Brave and tenacious, never back down!" I would rather die than be a prisoner, and leave the last bullet to me!"...

Tears flowed down Lin Qiuye's face—what else can I say?What else could Lin Qiuye say? ——Country, responsibility, army, honor, sacrifice, faith... These nouns that have become indifferent in many people's minds, on July 1991, 7, existed in Lin Qiuye's heart so truly—that , never forget.
