Afterward, Gu Xiaoxi would train during the day, and after finishing her training at night, she’d co to this big tree to practice techniques.
At first, the results were not obvious, but she wasn’t in a hurry, because these things can’t be perfected overnight.
Luckily, she had so foundation from before; otherwise, she would have been stumped.
Gu Xiaoxi had stealthily taken a mobile phone from ho.
Of course, she couldn’t keep it a secret from Quan Shaoqing.
Let alone let everyone else know this secret.
Sotis she would browse the web, and then chat with Quan Shaoqing about life in the military.
And there was Yi Chentian!
Every now and then, he would send her ssages.
Besides cheesy poems, there were also funny jokes.
Ti flew by, and a month and a half had passed, the life of a recruit was already halfway through.
Gu Xiaoxi’s relationship with everyone had eased, except for Yan Xiao, the rest could basically get along happily.
That night, as usual, Gu Xiaoxi ca alone and sat on the trunk of the big tree.
Just as she took out her phone from her pocket, a ssage from Yi Chentian arrived.
[Can I co to see you tomorrow?]
Looking at the ssage, Gu Xiaoxi thought about it and felt there was no reason she couldn’t.
After all, they had been chatting for so long.
Yi Chentian didn’t particularly impress her, but she certainly didn’t dislike him.
Gu Xiaoxi just wondered, what was it about her that had captured Yi Chentian’s heart and made him like her so much?
Gu Xiaoxi propped her head up with one hand, her long eyelashes fluttering in the night, her gaze sparkling with fervent light.
Speaking of “falling in love,” she indeed felt a little flutter in her heart!
But, she wanted to ask Quan Shaoqing!
So, she opened Quan Shaoqing’s number!
And sent him a ssage!
[Guardian!
Can I date?]
A minute later, she received a reply!
[No!
You’re only eighteen!]
Quan Shaoqing was leaning against the headboard, clearly ready to sleep, when her ssage startled him awake.
Gu Xiaoxi snorted!
If he didn’t agree, she was all the more determined to date!
[You’re a tyrant!
Just you wait!]
Looking at the ambiguous words in the ssage, Quan Shaoqing had a bad feeling stirring inside him.
Did this girl have soone she liked?
Instantly, Quan Shaoqing sprang up from the bed, grabbed his phone, and imdiately called Gu Xiaoxi.
Looking at the blinking number on her phone, the corners of Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth curled into a smirk.
She picked it up and answered nonchalantly, “What’s up?”
“You’ve got soone you like, don’t you?
Listen to , you’re only eighteen!” Quan Shaoqing spoke in a particularly assertive tone.
Gu Xiaoxi rolled her eyes, “Can’t I date at eighteen?
In three months I’ll be nineteen.
I’m not underage anymore.”
Quan Shaoqing was montarily speechless, “Anyway, you’re not allowed to date!”
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi imdiately beca annoyed.
He wanted to control this about her, too?
The next mont, Gu Xiaoxi decisively hung up the phone.
After that, no matter how many tis Quan Shaoqing called, she no longer answered.
She also replied to Yi Chentian with a ssage.
[You can co over anyti!]
Then she turned off her phone and began to practice her techniques with undivided attention!
Anyway, she wanted to date.
As for whether she liked Yi Chentian or not, at least she didn’t dislike him.
The next day, Gu Xiaoxi was training.
Ning Jiu ca to find her personally, saying that soone was looking for her.
Gu Xiaoxi knew who it was.
Without saying much, she followed Ning Jiu to the reception room.
Upon entering the room,
Gu Xiaoxi saw Yi Chentian standing not far away, holding a lunchbox in his hand.
He was well-built and handso, and right now, he was wearing a sky-blue shirt, with several diamond buttons at the neck that were particularly dazzling under the afternoon sun.
A pair of white casual pants covered his long legs, giving the impression of an elegant prince.
He seed like a completely different person compared to when he wore military uniform, his face sared with camouflage paint.
Yi Chentian stood not far away, smiling at Gu Xiaoxi with tenderness.
Gu Xiaoxi pushed her military cap and felt a drop of sweat slide down her forehead, finding the situation really awkward!
Especially since in the reception room right now, Ning Jiu’s pair of gossip-filled eyes were brimming with curiosity!
“Platoon leader!
Can you leave now?” Gu Xiaoxi turned her head, her shining eyes sternly falling on Ning Jiu’s face.
Ning Jiu imdiately snapped back to reality with a chuckle, looking at Yi Chentian, “The officer can take his ti chatting!
I’ll take my leave now!”
Yi Chentian smiled and waved at Ning Jiu.
“Thank you, Platoon Leader Ning!”
Gu Xiaoxi looked up at the sky, thinking that Yi Chentian really had a good nature; no wonder so many girls liked him and he had such a good reputation.
Suitable to be a boyfriend!
But, she seed to have done sothing foolish!
“Xiao Xi, we’ve finally t.
It’s been over a month since our last encounter.
Are you getting used to it here?” Yi Chentian appeared sowhat excited.
Gu Xiaoxi took off the hat on her head, shook her slightly disheveled hair, leaned against the table, and then looked to Yi Chentian, “Do others know about your visit?”
“Others?
Who are you referring to?” Yi Chentian asked curiously.
“Naturally, our new recruit platoon comrades.” Gu Xiaoxi knew that although the army didn’t explicitly forbid relationships, they also didn’t allow them to interfere with training.
“No one!” Yi Chentian laughed.
“I won’t affect you!”
“Well then, I have training this afternoon.
We’ve t, so you can go back now,” said Gu Xiaoxi, sitting on a stool, her legs crossed.
Yi Chentian narrowed his eyes, smiling gently and unhurriedly, and placed the thermos he was carrying in front of Gu Xiaoxi, “Don’t rush, I made this for you.
Eat up, then I’ll leave!”
Gu Xiaoxi craned her neck to see as he slowly opened six small thermal containers, revealing four dishes: a secret recipe codfish, two plump crabs, a fried at roll that was golden and crispy, and a serving of vegetable salad.
Another container held rich and fragrant bone soup with a side of rice balls.
It was evident that he had paid careful attention to every detail, even the placent of the dishes was very appealing, enough to make one’s mouth water at first glance.
Swallowing, Gu Xiaoxi honestly admitted that after a morning of training, she was indeed hungry.
“I knew you’d be hungry!
Eat up!
I made it specially for you,” Yi Chentian said with a smile.
He passed her a pair of chopsticks.
Gu Xiaoxi’s eyes spun around, and after receiving them, she smiled heartily, “Then I won’t stand on ceremony!”
Yi Chentian smiled gently, sitting opposite Gu Xiaoxi, watching her eat.
He had taken leave for a day, woken up early in the morning, driven to the nearby market to buy ingredients, cooked all morning, and had imdiately delivered it to her.
Luckily, the distance from his place to the new recruits’ platoon wasn’t very far, nor did it take much ti.
As Gu Xiaoxi enjoyed the delicious al, she felt that the dishes tasted even better than they looked.
While eating, she looked at Yi Chentian, “You went through a lot of trouble!”
“If you like it, I’ll cook for you again next ti!” Yi Chentian replied with a laugh.
In truth, just having the opportunity to show himself to her had already made him very happy.
Gu Xiaoxi just laughed, her mouth full of food as she looked up at Yi Chentian, “Did you specifically learn this to charm girls?”
“Of course not!
I cooked for the first ti just for you!
I swear!” Yi Chentian imdiately stretched out four fingers in a nervous pledge.
Gu Xiaoxi gave him a look, and after filling herself up, she packed the lunchbox and returned it to him.
“Thanks, the food was good.”
“As long as you like it!”
Suddenly, it seed they ran out of things to say, and the atmosphere turned inexplicably awkward.
Gu Xiaoxi pointed outside, “Then, I’m off to train.”
Yi Chentian smiled softly, his gaze tender as if bathed in the spring breeze.
He picked up Gu Xiaoxi’s cap, fixed her hair for her, and then correctly placed the military hat on her head, “Go ahead!”
His gentle fingers brushed through her soft hair.
Standing in front of him, Gu Xiaoxi found her heart suddenly skipping a beat for so unknown reason.
This was her first ti being together with a boy who liked her.
It was a bit awkward!
