Chapter 1676: Chapter 1676: First Arrival at Shanghai Island 4
Ming Lan interrupted Feng Qingxue’s thoughts, “Doctor Feng, do you think the two countries will go to war?”
Feng Qingxue withdrew her gaze from the sea, turned to look at her, and also noticed the expression on Tang Yan’s face. There was a hint of incredulity and confusion about the war between the two countries.
“They will!” Feng Qingxue said firmly, “If they dare to invade our territory, we will fight them until they flee in defeat.”
In tis when weapons and equipnt were not up to standard, countries heavily emphasized military border defense, not to ntion now with atomic and hydrogen bombs available, the confidence has risen, naturally making safeguarding national territorial integrity the main task.
Ming Lan’s eyes instantly burst with pride and confidence, “Yes, make them run away like cowards!”
Though already middle-aged, there was still youthful vigor and fighting spirit in her.
“No wonder the sea looks like a storm is coming.” Tang Yan looked into the distance.
Feng Qingxue also noticed, there were small escort ships patrolling everywhere, even on fishing boats there were militia, and the sea wasn’t just occupied by the one boat they were on. The boat broke through the waves and they could see the fishing nets pulled up by the fishing boats, full of live and shining fish, shimring like they were cloaked in a faint golden hue.
As the fishern finished work and the sun set, the afterglow gradually faded.
The food on the boat was good too, all fish.
The three female doctors slept in the sa cabin at night, with bedding provided. Feng Qingxue could only casually apply so Snow Cream, noticing that both Tang Yan and Ming Lan had also brought Snow Cream. After washing their faces, they twisted open the Snow Cream bottles.
One was Friendship, the other was Yashuang.
“We have the ans, so of course, we should take care of ourselves. Otherwise, after facing the elents, our faces would look like old tree bark, not pleasant at all.” Ming Lan was very cheerful, with a hint of childishness in her deanor, unlike a middle-aged woman over forty who had given birth to five children. She enthusiastically scooped a large portion of Yashuang Snow Cream and applied it to her face.
Tang Yan laughed, “The main thing is, it hurts if it’s too dry, beauty is secondary.”
To love beauty is in human nature, especially among female comrades. Many people don’t maintain their appearance simply because they lack the resources.
Ming Lan glanced at Feng Qingxue, who was combing her hair with a Rosewood Comb, “Doctor Feng, how do you maintain your looks? It’s hard to tell you’re already over thirty.”
Feng Qingxue liked hearing others say she looked young, and replied with a smile, “Perhaps ti has been very kind to .”
Tang Yan and Ming Lan couldn’t help but laugh.
Although Tang Yan, Ming Lan, and Feng Qingxue were twelve and thirteen years apart age-wise, since they all had several children and worked in the sa profession, they shared mutual interests in their conversations.
“I wonder if we’ll be assigned together.” Ming Lan said while lying on the upper bunk.
Feng Qingxue calmly replied, “We’ll follow the military’s arrangents; I think it’s unlikely that all seven or eight people would be assigned together.”
Tang Yan yawned, “Why worry? We’ll find out once we get to the island.”
“True.” Ming Lan also closed her eyes.
The South Sea Fleet stationed in Harbor City, which is actually a peninsula surrounded by sea on three sides. The next day, when disembarking, Feng Qingxue saw a familiar face.
“Xiaoyun?” The young naval officer standing guard at the military dock. Who else could it be but Zhao Xiaoyun?
After several years apart, he seed like a different person, with broad shoulders and long legs, handso and burly, with only slight resemblance to Zhao Yong, not much like Guo Xiuying, but very much like Zhao Hanzhi.
Zhao Xiaoyun also noticed Feng Qingxue, standing out among the crowd, and his eyes widened instantly, full of shock.
