Chapter 166: Finally Meeting Again

  The car still has to wait for two trains to arrive before leaving. The weather is really too hot and no one goes down to stroll around. Xing Tong's small hands kept fanning: "September's weather is still so hot, it's going to take lives."

  Lu Ye smiled lightly and said: "From what I've observed, it's basically impossible. People living here are all energetic and lively, how can you be so unenthusiastic?"

  "Dislike" star rolled her eyes and leaned lazily against the back of the chair: "This is just a metaphor, do you understand 'metaphor'?"

  "Ye... Luo Ye..." Liu Xing hesitated for a moment, calling out to Luo Ye. He saw the doubt and caution in her eyes, and even asking about Nie Cui's well-being was absent, which made his heart feel somewhat sour and astringent.

  "Liu Xing, what's wrong?" Luo Ye smiled brightly at him, the car only had a dozen or so students scattered in the front seats, and just the four of them in the back, making it quite convenient to talk.

  "Nothing... nothing at all."

  "Can't a big man be more straightforward?!" Xing glared at him, "Can't you see that Luo Luo is very concerned about you but doesn't dare to ask? If you trust her, then say it; if not, don't be so ambiguous. Or do you want me and Yao Guang to leave, just speak up clearly, okay?"

  "No, I just don't know where to start for a moment..." Liu Hang showed a bitter smile.

  Lu Ye An comforted with a smile: "Wait until you've sorted it out, and when you want to say something, then say it. Besides, there are many people on the bus now, no need to rush."

  "Thank you, Ye Er." Liu Xing Shu took a deep breath. His pride wouldn't let him speak, yet he was worried that from now on they would be even more estranged. Then what was the point of all this fuss?

  The death sentence of father will be carried out at the end of this month, and brother is on death row. Even if he can come out in the future, it's estimated that it will be in his old age. Before that, he went to see the two of them, with father, perhaps for the last time in this life.

  Father is not a good person - this is undeniable, but the care of his father is unspoken, compared to his brother, he may be lucky, hope everything will get better.

  Lu Ye had been secretly observing Liu Hang, who seemed more subdued than before. However, anyone would be unhappy after going through what he did, and no matter what method he used, it was still impressive that he managed to get into GF University.

  Or did Nie Cui move away to break off her relationship with Liu Zhenghang? Otherwise, Liu's political review would be difficult to pass, could it be that...Nie Cui had divorced him?

  "Wow, no way! Such a young kid got into GF University? Ahah... I like it." The muttering voice of Xing Nong brought back Luo Ye's wandering thoughts. Following his line of sight, he saw Wen Nan and a boy standing outside the car with their necks stretched out.

  "Silly girl, that's my cousin." Luo Ye rubbed Xing Nuolan's head and got off the car, casting a sideways glance, Qi Juanjuan and her son were still chatting enthusiastically with Ye Qingzhu.

  "Yè ér jiě jie" saw Luo Ye get off the bus, Wen Nan happily ran over. The two soldiers in charge of signing in glanced at Luo Ye and looked at their watches: "It's estimated that we'll have to wait for about an hour or so, don't be late."

  "Thank you," Luo Ye said gratefully, nodding at the two of them before turning to Wen Nan: "Little Pumpkin, how did you get here? Did you skip class?"

  Wen Nan shook his little head in disappointment: "Sister, I'm not starting school until tomorrow, ah...... you're really not concerned about me at all? I've been thinking about you all along." He pulled over the boy behind him: "This is my classmate and desk mate Lu Lu, 'Lu' as in earth and 'Lu' as in big road."

  "Hello, Ye Jie!" Lu Lu hastily greeted her. She was slightly shorter than Nan Gua, with a sharp eyebrow and delicate eyes. When she smiled, the corners of her mouth curved up to reveal shallow dimples, giving off a bright and lovely impression.

  "It's cooler over there, let's go chat in the shade." Luo Ye beckoned the two to walk towards a cluster of trees behind the car, craning her neck to gaze at Xing Yu's starry eyes, and flashed Liu Hang a sly smile: "Hey, we're fellow townspeople after all, would you mind keeping an eye on our luggage?"

  "Go ahead, it's safe either way."

  "Thanks." Xīng Nòng pulled up Mò Yáo Guāng and headed towards the car, Yáo Guāng couldn't help but mutter under her breath: "Xīng Nòng, when you see a boy younger than you, why do you act like a cat seeing fish?"

  "We're just two of a kind, don't laugh at each other. We've got this special thing going on, if we don't take advantage of it now, who's gonna tease who when we get to school? If you don't want to go, then just go back." Xing Nang said as he let go of Yao Guang's hand.

  "Hey... don't be annoyed, who said I wasn't going? We came together, you can't leave me behind." Yao Guang quickly caught up.

  "Yè ér jiě, gěi nǐ bào zhǐ diàn zhe." Dào le shù yīn xià, Wēn Nán cóng shū bāo tǎo chū bào zhǐ dì gěi Luò Yè, zì jǐ jiù nà me yī pì gu zuò le dì shàng.

  "Little pumpkin, you're really careful." Luo Ye praised.

  "Yeer sister, he's just being considerate of you, the pumpkin is almost worshiping you, every day whispering in my ear, my ears are all swollen." Lu said with exaggerated gestures, digging at his ears.

  "You haven't seen my sister's skills, except for Yan Ge, we're all losers under Ye Er Jie's hands, this isn't me bragging."

  "Lolo, introduce us!" Xīng Nòng pulled Yáo Guāng over with a smile.

  "Pumpkin, this is Yan Xing Nong, and this is Mo Yao Guang." Luo Ye pointed to the two boys and introduced them: "My cousin Wen Nan, also known as Little Pumpkin, a classmate of Pumpkin's, Lu Lu."

  "Two sisters, sit together." Lu Lu took out a few 16K color posters from her backpack and handed them to Xing Nong and Yao Guang. "Little Dd, you really have good taste!" Xing Nong giggled and pinched Lu Lu's pale face.

  "Xīng nòng jiě jie, you can call me Lù Lù." Lù Lù slightly tilted her head, her cheeks flushing slightly.

  Lu Ye stroked her forehead, guessing that this little girl would make a move on Lu Lu, but she didn't expect it to happen so suddenly. She swept a glance at Yao Guang, whose mouth was twitching with a smile.

  "How old are you this year?" Xing Nong affectionately tugged on Lu Lu's ear.

  Lu Ye cleared her throat and quickly changed the subject: "Little Pumpkin, do your grandparents know you're here?" She was really afraid that Xing Nong would tease her even more, after all, Lu Lu and Wen Nan were already 14 or 15 years old, not much younger than Xing Nong, and their faces were as red as shrimp. It's likely they had never met such a fiery girl before.

  Wen Nan's face was full of discontent: "You still have the nerve to say that, I let you come to Sha City a few days in advance, you agreed, but now you're nowhere to be found."

  "If I hadn't called Auntie with my own blood, I wouldn't have known you arrived today. The others at home don't know because I made the call from outside and was worried that I might not be able to find you."

  "Little pumpkin has a heart." Luo Ye affectionately touched Wen Nan's head: "As for the summer vacation, I didn't come over in advance, you should understand, the military school rules are so strict, we can only go home during winter break. Just like that, when we left, your aunt and my mom were crying too."

  "Even if you leave in another month, Aunt will still cry." Wen Nan pouted: "You and Uncle and Maple brother left ahead of time that time, Aunt thought of you and secretly wiped away tears, thinking we didn't notice."

  "Alright, don't be unhappy. From now on, when I get the chance to go out, I'll come home and stay for four years, so don't make a long face."

  Luo Ye said this, Wen Nan's small face became even longer: "Ye Er Jie likes to deceive people the most. Last time she said that she would come home on Sunday, which made me excited for a long time. Only recently did I find out that GF undergraduate students live in an eight-person dormitory, and only two people are allowed to go out every week. In special circumstances, exceptions can be made. This way, it's possible to go out only one day a month, which is too boring."

  Lu Ye pinched Wen Nan's ear: "I'm already being held back, and you're still complaining. Where did all these problems come from? Are you going to get on the bus now?"

  "Alright alright, Ye Er sister is not angry. You don't keep your promises and you're still complaining?"

  "Xīng nòng, zhù zhù shǒu ba, nǐ kàn bǎ rén jiā hái zi gěi nán shòu de." Luò yè wú yǔ de gōng zhe é tou, jiù tā hé nán guā shuō huà zhè kōng zhōng, nà yā tou bǎ lù lù gěi diào xì le yóu xiā zi zhuàn chéng xī hóng shì le.

  "I didn't hit him?" Xing said with an innocent face.

  Lu Ye rolled her eyes: "Hmph, didn't pinch your face, pinched someone else's waist instead, thought I wouldn't see?"

  "It's nothing, I'm just hot." Lu Lu chuckled and fanned himself vigorously with his hand.

  "Tang Tang?" Mo Yao Guang suddenly shouted while looking around. Luo Ye and Xing Nong followed her line of sight, and indeed, Tang Luo and Fu Mo were searching around.

  Xing Nong muttered to himself: "The power of love is indeed great, Fu Mo Ming obviously got into B University, but he came here first."

  "Xīng nòng, don't bully Tangtang, she's already given up a lot to get here, you need to understand which direction her family is leaning towards."

  And she's doing it to alleviate some of her younger aunt's burdens, in any case we should support her." Luo Ye reminded Xing Nong before standing up and beckoning silently to Tang Luo.

  Xing Nong rolled her eyes: "I know, I just found out she got into S University and was a bit angry at first, but after thinking about it, I understood. Am I such an unreasonable person?"

  "Lolo, Xing Nong, Yao Guang, I've finally found you guys! As soon as Fu Mo and I got off the plane, we rushed over here, worried that we wouldn't be able to meet up with you."

  After parting ways with his fellow students, this was the first time they had met again. Tang Luo was very excited and didn't care that his clothes were sticking to him due to sweat, so he went forward and hugged several people.

  "Let go, let go, it's so uncomfortable..." Xing Nong hated the puffy Tang Luo.

  "Tang Tang has been thinking about you all along, so forgive her."

  Xing Nong smiled mischievously: "Fu Mo, you're quite something! Flying to send the beauty, are you going to fly to Beijing tonight too?"

  Silently shaking his head: "When is your mouth not sarcastic? It's not you if it's not like that. By the way, who are these two?"

  After Luo Ye introduced both parties again, Tang Luo, who had calmed down, looked at Xing Nong with a sly gaze: "Isn't it beautiful?"

  "That is" Starry sky with a small face upwards, couldn't help but be delighted.

  ……

  When Luo Ye Xing and Tang Luo returned to the car, Qi Juanjuan and her son were no longer there. Ye Qingzhu was checking the list with the two soldiers, and when he saw several people approaching, he gave them a expressionless glance before continuing his work.

  "The girl in military uniform is just good-looking" Xing Nong whispered softly into Luo Ye's ear, "However, smiling would make her look even better."

  Lu Ye said with a smile: "After you put it on, laugh as hard as you can, like an idiot."

  "Don't have to drive me away like this, do you? Heartless... Ah... Ouch..."

  "Sorry, sorry, it won't fit down there."

  Just as they were about to reach their seats, Xing Dong was almost tripped by a snakeskin suitcase in the aisle, and a thin girl quickly stood up to apologize.

  "It's nothing, it's my fault for not watching where I'm walking." Luo Ye curiously lifted the bag: "It's so heavy, did you carry it up yourself?"

  "Yes, my dad wanted to come see me off, but taking a car costs money and I still have younger siblings in school, so we need to be frugal."

  "Dad? What era is this term from?"

  "My grandfather's days of fighting against the devils"

  “……”

  The car was filled with the sound of "heh heh" laughter, and the girl was helplessly rubbing her sleeves, her face slightly red. Xing couldn't bear to look at several students who were covering their mouths and laughing: "What are you laughing at? It's better than those who shout 'Dad' and 'Mom'."

  "Hey, what's wrong with you?" A fashionably dressed girl stared at Xing Nong discontentedly. (Why not fashionable? Fashionable and stylish are completely different, everyone understands.)

  Xing Nong swept a glance at the opponent: "You're the one who shouted 'Dad' and 'Mom'? I'm really sorry, I originally used our class's Rong Gongzhu as an example. Oh, you don't know her, she's a legendary figure in our school, studies well, her dad is a high-ranking official, you can totally think of me as jealous."

  "You're also jealous," said the girl, casting a sideways glance before turning back around.

  Lu Ye's eyes were speechless, this girl took advantage of the convenience of the land route, and she was in a good mood, and when others found fault with her, she also had the mood to pick up the fault.

  "Hehe......" A certain someone smiled and sat down: "Lolo, we agreed on it, from now on the two of us will take time off together, take me out to have some fun."

  "What about me?" Mo Yao Guang's face was full of discontent: "Are you just going to abandon me like this?"

  "It's really hard to handle. If Tang Tang also came over, it would be great, just enough to make two pairs." Xing Nong was entangled with a puzzled face.

  "Are you guys from around here?" A boy sitting in front of them turned his head back curiously.

  "Really, where did you come from?"

  The boy smiled foolishly: "I'm from Mongolia, my name is Zhang Pingyuan."

  Xing Lang said with a smile: "You should be called Zhang Grassland, shouldn't you?"

  "That's right, my grandfather gave me this name, can't blame me." The boy scratched his head in embarrassment.

  "Hey, what's your name?" Xing Nong poked her and almost tripped over the slender girl.

  "My name is Li Qing."

  "Can you pass the physical examination with this weight?" A boy next to him couldn't help but interrupt, "I don't know why, but it seems a bit strange to me."

  "Just barely made it."

  The boy sighed: "Then you're still lucky, I have a classmate who was 0.5 kg short and was sent back, and another one who was found to be Da San Yang and could only be sent back too. It's really not easy to take the military school exam."

  "You should think of it this way, even if you can't attend the military academy, knowing about your physical problems ahead of time and treating them early is also a blessing in disguise." The fashionable girl chimed in.

  When everyone was chatting, Luo Ye swept a glance over the car and found that there were more than 40 people, but less than 10 of them were girls. Cough, indeed, too many monks and not enough porridge.

  ……

  The car drove for more than an hour and finally stopped at the gate of GF. Several classmates who were carsick rushed down from the car, bent over and vomited.

  As soon as the crowd got off the bus, a BMW screeched to a halt at the entrance. A sturdy man in his 40s got out of the driver's seat, drawing everyone's gaze over. Even those who were busy vomiting stopped.

  "What are you doing?" The captain of the fifth squad, Mingliang, also the middle-aged military officer who had previously boasted about Luo Ye, walked over with a frown.

  "My name is Wu Zetian, I'm a new student reporting for duty." The man leaned against the car and winked at the girls in the group.

  "Wu Zetian?"

  A burst of laughter erupted from the team, and a boy shouted: "Brother, why don't you name yourself Li Shimin? Or Zhao Kuangyin is also okay."

  The man's expression on his face became even more complacent: "Brother, are you jealous? I'm Ze from Mao Zedong, Wu Ze Tian, get it?"

  The captain's eyebrows furrowed even tighter: "This is a military school, not a gangster shelter. Hurry up and drive away. Moreover, standing has its posture and sitting has its posture, which are the basic requirements for soldiers."

  "Yes, I'll leave right away." The boy didn't make a fuss and obediently drove the car away.

  The advantage of having a car to pick up and drop off is that the instructor will take the students directly to their dormitory. Luo Ye, Xing Nong, Yao Guang, Li Qing, and Yao Juanjuan (the fashionable girl) were assigned to the same dormitory. Ye Qingzhu brought several people to the dormitory and pointed to two girls who had arrived early: "Yu Na, Bai Qingchu." Then he introduced Luo Ye and others, shouting out Luo Ye's name when Yu Na was obviously stunned, Luo Ye looked at her expression and guessed a few points.

  "Alright, everyone hurry up and pack your luggage. In an hour and a half, line up in the dormitory corridor to receive military uniforms. This afternoon, clean up the dormitory. The day after tomorrow is the graduation ceremony, followed by three months of military training."

  "During military training, trainees are not allowed to take leave or meet anyone. If there's anything that needs to be taken care of, get it sorted out within these two days, got it?"

  "Understand"

  Everyone replied in unison, Luo Ye had been secretly observing Ye Qingzhu. She was Ye Xuan's cousin, and to say that she didn't look much like Ye Xuan at all. Her eyebrows were fine and black, her nose bridge was straight, with healthy wheat-colored skin, an egg-shaped face, and a height of around 176 cm. When looking at people, her eyes were cold, giving off a very cool and aloof feeling.

  When Ye Qing's gaze swept over, Luo Ye quickly withdrew her line of sight. She had a feeling that the other party was slightly repelled by her, or maybe they had been prejudiced against her first?

  Alas, she's been wronged. Hopefully the other party isn't too difficult to deal with. In principle, she doesn't want to fall out with Ye Xuan's family members after all they've done for her; the Ye family has treated her quite well.

  "If there's anything you don't understand, go to room 206 in building 2 or ask the team leader. In the future, if nothing unexpected happens, I and the team leader will accompany everyone to grow together." Yeqing Zhu said and left without looking back.
