Xiao Jing walked back to the dormitory panting, her whole body covered in heat and sweat. She grabbed the towel by the door and casually wiped the sweat off her head.
“Click.” She turned on the lights in the room, and as soon as she raised her head, she saw a pair of bright eyes falling on her small body, “Oh my god.”
Xiao Zheng sat motionless on the stool and looked like a wax figure from a distance.
Xiao Jing patted her frightened heart and twitched her mouth slightly. What did this old man want to do that he suddenly came to visit her in the middle of the night?
Xiao Zheng stood up, looked at the little figure from top to bottom who was so frightened that he almost fainted, then silently lifted the bag behind him, opened it and took out the contents.
The strong aroma of meat spread instantly, like a big hand quietly curling its fingers towards Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing swallowed hard and ran over without any control of her brain.
“Is the injury healed?” Xiao Zheng broke the silence and spoke.
Xiao Jing nodded like she was pounding garlic. She could no longer hold back and pulled out a duck leg with her hands. Her mouth was full of oil after eating, “Okay, okay, everything is okay.”
Xiao Zheng did not express his position, but his eyes were fixed for a moment. He looked at Xiao Jing, looked at the grease stains on her mouth, and her happy smile, and sighed softly, just be happy.
“Third brother?” Seeing him in a daze, Xiao Jing raised her hand and waved it in front of him.
Xiao Zheng nodded, “Although the trauma is not serious, you still need to pay more attention to it recently. You have been weak since you were a child. Don’t train like those rough guys in the army desperately. Our Xiao family has no shortage of heroes.”
“I know that, I will do my best according to my ability. Okay.”
“It won’t be long before you, Tie Ying, will have your final assessment. According to past rules, Shen Chengfeng will definitely take you to the real battlefield. Except for you, all the recruits to be selected have probably been to the battlefield, so at that time, you just need to pay attention to one thing, it doesn’t matter if you fail, just don’t let yourself be hurt.” Xiao Zheng picked up a tissue and went to wipe her mouth.
Xiao Jing blinked and subconsciously moved back. Then she said, “I will remember everything Third Brother said.”
“Do you know what I mean by battlefield?” Xiao Zheng frowned slightly and asked seriously.
Xiao Jing thought for a while, a hail of bullets? Real swords and guns?
“We Zhenghu selected new recruits the year before last and went to the border of hell. We had five recruits, but three of them were eliminated. The remaining two announced their withdrawal on the spot. In the final test of the recruits, we will specially choose the most difficult and dangerous place with the highest degree of difficulty and risk, where no one can escape unscathed.”
“…”
“Third brother didn’t want to tell you this so early, but I have to tell you this, the special operations team is not as beautiful as you think.”
“Third Brother, I am a soldier.” Xiao Jing put down the duck leg in her hand and stared at Xiao Zheng’s meticulous face.
“I know.”
“The Xiao family does not lack heroes, let alone soldiers. However, the soldiers of the Xiao family do not run away from the battlefield, and the heroes of the Xiao family do not flinch. The men of the Xiao family stand upright and have a clear conscience even if they die. I have never thought about becoming a great hero who can be revered by everyone one day. I just want to be worthy of my family and worthy of the badge on my shoulders.”
“Little Fourth——”
“I know where I am, and I also know who I will be in the future. Whatever I have to face, even if a bullet penetrates my body, my bones and blood will still make me proudly hold my head high.”
“It seems that my little four has grown up.” Xiao Zheng smiled, raised his hand and gently patted her little head, eyes full of doting.
Xiao Jing was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head and continued to hold her duck legs after she recovered.
“Do you really like it here?” Xiao Zheng asked again.
Xiao Jing barely hesitated for a moment and nodded hurriedly, “I like it. Although it is bitter, tiring, and full of crises, I have the confidence to live.”
“As long as you like it.” Xiao Zheng stood up and looked at his big eyes, then he leaned over and tapped her forehead with his hand, “Eat it, the roast duck won’t taste good when it’s cold.”
Xiao Jing stuffed a piece of meat in her mouth and swallowed it without even chewing it. After entering, her back felt weak and cold. What should she do? Suddenly, it felt like his third brother was being possessed by something dirty. He didn’t even hit her with a fist as big as a sandbag?
He just raised his little fist and gently hit her little head?
