"National Day! The guy on TV! Was that you? Was it you?!"
Before Fang Huai could answer the previous question, Chen Shuang’s excited voice followed swiftly.
Fang Huai knew what he was talking about and smiled as he nodded.
Chen Shuang exploded with excitent, leaning in mysteriously with his eyes shining and eyebrows twitching wildly.
"I knew it! It had to be you! How could there possibly be another person who looks exactly like you?"
That sleazy expression made it look not as if he was on TV receiving an award, but as if he was on so legal channel standing in a lineup with a bunch of people.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and greet your parents!"
Fang Huai waved his hand and looked behind him.
The couple behind him saw their son, looking hopeful yet concerned, but they stood in front of the car without approaching, quietly waiting for Fang Huai to "clear the checkpoint," feeling almost timid as they drew near their hotown.
Possibly because the last ti they saw their son, they felt they had caused him trouble, so they didn’t dare co over rashly.
Yang Shaoqing was also there accompanying them.
When Chen Shuang saw his parents standing a few ters away across the street, he did not rush out imdiately, instead, he turned to the sentry and asked:
"Squad Leader Zhang, my parents are here, can they co in?"
The sentry finally spoke, "Go ahead, the instructor already ntioned it, letting them in here is to et you, quickly bring them inside."
Chen Shuang imdiately waved to his family mbers not far away, shouting loudly:
"Co in, co in!"
"Smack!"
Fang Huai slapped the back of his head, grumbling:
"Damn it, you’ve been in the military for a year and still don’t get it, they’ve co all this way to see you, and you’re just standing at the door waving? Go and invite them!"
"Damn!" Chen Shuang rubbed the back of his head, his eyes widening: "Huh? You little rascal, lecturing ? I’m two months older than you! Call ... ’bro’!"
Chen Shuang was about to say "call ’dad’", but seeing that his family was approaching and a squad leader was nearby, he quickly changed his words.
Back in their school days, he liked making others call him ’dad’ or ’bro’.
Another person would laugh and pat the other’s head, saying "Disrespectful child, how can you speak to your dad like that?"
Chen Shuang, too, was looking forward to exchanging a few banterous remarks with Fang Huai, seeking the joy of old tis.
But, Fang Huai suddenly laughed and smoothly called out: "Bro!"
"Damn?" Chen Shuang stood there dumbfounded, scratching his head and then reaching out to touch Fang Huai’s forehead, asking:
"Did you change your personality?"
Before Fang Huai could reply, Yang Shaoqing, who had now approached, heard this and imdiately got excited, bouncing over and happily saying:
"Turtle! You already told him? No need to call him bro! I usually just call him by his na!"
The air suddenly went quiet.
At that mont, Chen Shuang looked exactly like Mr. Shrew, his eyes gradually widening and his mouth agape.
Fang Huai coughed lightly: "I haven’t told him yet, why not you say it, I’m heading inside."
...
Two minutes later.
A loud roar suddenly ca from the door:
"Fang Dog!!"
Imdiately, a figure swiftly charged into the not-so-large courtyard.
But, he was stopped by several figures in the middle of the courtyard.
Normally unreachable instructors in front of these conscripts, were smiling warmly and shaking hands with Fang Huai.
"Comrade Fang Huai, a warm welco to our squadron! Chief Fang already called, saying Zhenxiong is far from the city and he’s quite busy, so he won’t be able to co, but asked us to warmly receive you! Actually, if you were coming, just let us know!"
Next to him, a Firefighting captain also cheerfully said, "Yes! You’re a national model for us at Firefighting and the captain of a national pilot squadron, and you didn’t even inform us, if Captain Zhou hadn’t told , I wouldn’t have known! Our two squadrons are next to each other, you could have just co over, I would have invited Captain Zhou, Instructor Xue and others to our squadron for a al, just as well!"
Fang Huai smiled subtly and said, "I really didn’t expect our two squadrons to be so close. Coming here, I also thought about not troubling the comrades from the Ard Police Squadron, specifically asked Principal Luo of the Kunming Ard Police Academy if it was convenient, didn’t expect, this morning, Chief Fang personally called , I was rather flattered!"
At these words, all three captains were slightly taken aback.
Principal Luo of Kunzhi?
That level of connections, tsk tsk.
"Didn’t expect that you and our Principal Luo knew each other! I’m a graduate from Kunzhi too!"
"Haha, too! But from our Kunming Firefighting Command!"
The Ard Police and Firefighting captains laughed even louder.
Fang Huai turned and saw Chen Shuang in the courtyard, smiled and said:
"Co over here, lad!"
Chen Shuang reluctantly approached, his expression slightly out of control, unsure whether to be angry or amused.
Just then, the instructor of the Ard Police Squadron called out:
"Chen Shuang!"
Chen Shuang imdiately stood at attention.
"Here!"
"Your family, have they been brought inside?"
"Report! Squad Leader Huang has already helped to bring them to the platoon, Platoon Leader Chen is also there!"
The Ard Police Squadron, unlike Firefighting, had a hierarchy with squads and platoons between the squadron and soldiers usually organized into three platoons. This county squadron wasn’t heavily staffed but still had two platoons. Family visits like this, the leaders of the squadron versus instructors typically wouldn’t manage directly, a squad leader and a platoon leader accompanying them to the platoon, having a seat, talking about the soldier’s performance, that’s considered as hosting.
But upon hearing this, Instructor Xue imdiately waved his hand:
"To the platoon for what? There’s not even a place to sit! Co on, invite the aunt and uncle to the Squadron’s office!"
The sa soldiers, the sa family visits, yet the treatnt was now completely different.
Of course, it was different.
Chen Shuang was now in his second year.
