Xiao Jing couldn’t help but tighten her hands that were gripping the quilt. If she were wearing men’s clothes now, she would definitely jump out of bed.
F**k you, how could a delicate girl like me have such a tragic fate? Let me tell you, you shameless idiot, I will not only live a hundred years, I will live a thousand years, long live, long live, long live, you will be pissed to death!
Yan Jun glanced at him coldly, “Stop talking nonsense. When did you come back?”
“I heard that San’er was half dead, so I took a special leave to come and see him.” The man said frankly.
Yan Jun looked at him and said, “I was afraid you wouldn’t care.”
The man turned and left the ward.
Yan Jun smacked her lips. “How could I not know your little trick? Where did you get the news that the fourth son of the Xiao family was in the Iron Eagle Special Forces?”
The man’s feet suddenly stopped, he propped up the door lock with one hand, then he turned back and smiled: “Sister, you may be worrying too much. Even if I, Yan Mo, don’t marry in this life, I will not settle for a little soldier.”
“Who told you to get along with him?” Yan Jun punched him on the head, “Go and see my son. I want to stay here and take care of the girl.”
Yan Mo looked back at the slightly shaking figure on the bed and said bluntly, “Sister, you’d better not stay here. The girl is already sick. If you stay here and use threats and inducements, I’m afraid she will be pushed directly to the morgue.”
“Roll.”
Yan Mo continued, “I’m telling you the truth. It may sound a little harsh, but it’s understandable that honest advice hurts the ear. Please don’t delay Miss Qingbai. Anyone who meets San’er will never come back.”
“Don’t talk nonsense and scare the girl.”
“Sister, we have to accept our fate.”
“Believe it or not, I will kill you today.” Yan Jun pushed him out of the ward.
“What are you doing here?” A third person’s abrupt voice sounded from the side.
Yan Mo calmly looked at the figure coming out of the ward next to this and said, “It looks like he’s recovering well.”
Yan Jun stepped forward and raised her fist, but thinking of the seven or eight holes on his body, she endured it and said in a more serious tone: “Why do you treat a little girl like this?”
“…” Shen Chengfeng frowned slightly, obviously not understanding what his mother meant.
“Do you want me to point it out?” Yan Jun looked at the shameless brat, dragged him into the ward, and said in a low voice, “Apologize to her properly.”
After that, the door was closed tightly.
Shen Chengfeng stood alone in the empty ward, staring at the figure covering her head and daring not show her face, and said, “Come out, they’re gone.”
Xiao Jing carefully poked out half of her head and said with a smile: “Captain, how did your mother know that I was in the hospital again?”
“With such a big commotion, it’s hard for her not to know. Luckily you were wearing women’s clothes at the time, otherwise once they investigated further, I’m afraid the truth will be revealed.”
“Then how do you explain my identity?”
“No need to explain.” Shen Chengfeng poured a glass of water and walked to the bedside.
Xiao Jing looked expectantly at her captain’s actions. Did he know that she was thirsty as she hadn’t had any water all day?
Shen Chengfeng held the cup with one hand, looked at the patterns on the surface of the cup with a dim gaze, and finally raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
“Captain, I am a patient after all.” Xiao Jing licked her lips subconsciously to let him know her intentions.
“You’d better drink less water so that you don’t have to worry about going to the bathroom. Otherwise, with your broken body, I’m afraid your bones will be broken again before you even jump out of the bathroom.”
“…”
“According to the speed at which your body recovers, you can’t do strenuous exercise for at least half a month. Do you understand what I mean?” Shen Chengfeng said again.
Xiao Jing couldn’t help but think of Admiral Yan Jun’s words and shook her head hurriedly. Why did she inexplicably think of these ridiculous things?
Shen Chengfeng saw that she blushed involuntarily, and frowned, “The eight major teams will compete in about twenty days, and you don’t have enough time to recover your strength.”
“…” Xiao Jing woke up as if from a dream. She was so anxious that she folded her body and sat up. Then she said in a panic, “Captain, I just need to rest for a week. I’m sure my physical strength will keep up with the training rhythm.”
“You were injured in the bones this time, not in the flesh. Do you understand what I mean?”
“The bone is fine. A few injections will heal it.”
Shen Chengfeng looked at her seriously. Her face was a little red, probably because she was too anxious and her blood was boiling.
Xiao Jing affirmed again: “I think I have recovered very well.”
“Why do you work so hard?” Shen Chengfeng asked.
Xiao Jing grabbed the sheets tightly with both hands, staring into the officer’s eyes intently. She then said, “I think there is something I want here.”
“Glory?”
“No, now I understand why I am so persistent in staying in the special forces. It’s not entirely for glory, but for pride. The pride that swelled up when I walked through the hail of bullets with my gun on my shoulder, the pride that was honorable when I thought I would be dying fearlessly as I charged into battle without fear, this is the soul of the army, and it is also my soul.”
“I’ve said that when it comes to talking skills, you’re truly the best among the three armies.” Shen Chengfeng poured a glass of water and handed it to her.
Xiao Jing held the cup of water but found it difficult to swallow. She knew the current condition of her body. With such serious injuries, her speed would be greatly affected, and even her physical strength would not be able to keep up. However, she had no way out. This was her only way out.
“You have completed the mission brilliantly this time, and you deserve the reward. I have already reported it. One month later, when the competition among the eight teams is over, your first-class medal of honor will be awarded.” Shen Chengfeng picked up the water cup and handed it to her mouth.
Xiao Jing instinctively opened her mouth, and the warm water soaked the corners of her lips, instantly relieving the dryness at the corners of her lips. She was stunned for a moment, obviously not yet back to her senses.
Shen Chengfeng continued, “Your second-class merit has been issued. I asked Pei Yi to keep it for you. When you return, you will receive a promotion order to captain.”
“Captain?” Xiao Jing blurted out.
Shen Chengfeng nodded, “Yes, Captain Xiao.”
Xiao Jing’s hand trembled, and the cup fell onto the quilt with a clang. She then blinked her big, watery eyes in disbelief, “How could it be so fast?”
“Every mission of the special forces is a life-and-death struggle, so the merits are naturally much higher than those of ordinary military camps. After this first-class merit is awarded, I believe you will be the first person in the history of the special forces to be promoted from second lieutenant to major within three months of joining the team.”
“Major?” Xiao Jing almost jumped off the bed. There was a slight creaking sound in the air, and she stumbled and fell straight down.
Shen Chengfeng quickly held her in his arms.
“Son, the doctor asked you to go back to the ward to check your wound.” At that time, the tightly closed door was pushed open from the outside.
Yan Jun stared with her eyes wide open, staring without blinking at the two figures hugging each other tightly, and hurriedly stepped back.
She then smiled and said, “You guys continue, you guys continue.”
Xiao Jing’s mouth twitched, and she quickly broke free from her captain’s arms. She scratched the back of her head and said, “I’m too excited.”
“This is what you deserve.” Shen Chengfeng straightened his clothes with a normal expression.
Xiao Jing grinned, “Captain, am I really going to be a major?”
“This mission is your credit, so you deserve this honor.”
Xiao Jing nodded, but her eyes turned red involuntarily. She slowly stood up with the help of the bed, stood in military posture, and saluted, “Yes, sir.”
Shen Chengfeng hesitated to speak. He actually wanted to tell her that with the merit this time, she would not need to compete for the first place in the competition among the eight teams. But when he thought about this girl’s inflated mentality, he was afraid that she would feel so proud that she could open a dyeing factory without any color. He still needed to put some pressure on her.
Xiao Jing lay back on the bed, muttering to herself, “Major, Major Xiao, Major, Major Xiao.”
Shen Chengfeng saw her repeating the title, put the cup on the quilt back on the table, and said: “You can rest now.”
Xiao Jing pulled the quilt over her head with both hands again. She just hid in the quilt and smiled foolishly to herself.
“Haha, haha, haha.”
Shen Chengfeng watched the quilt shaking slightly and listened to the intermittent laughter coming from inside. But he was afraid that she would suffocate if she was not careful, so he pulled the quilt away.
Xiao Jing couldn’t hold her breath, and the moment the quilt was pulled open, a rough donkey bray burst out of her throat, “Roar!”
The two looked at each other, and for a moment, the whole space became unusually quiet.
Shen Chengfeng silently covered her with the quilt again, then turned around and left the ward without saying a word.
Xiao Jing also covered her head silently.
Haha, I am really a delicate girl.
As Shen Chengfeng opened the door of the ward, a figure came in like the wind.
Yan Jun was looking forward to his explanation.
But Shen Chengfeng walked around her and went straight to his ward.
Yan Jun followed closely behind and asked, “What do you think?”
Shen Chengfeng stopped, looked directly into his mother’s expectant eyes, and said seriously: “Maybe you misunderstood something.”
Yan Jun smiled and nodded without saying anything.
Shen Chengfeng pushed the door open and walked in. “If you have nothing else to do, you can go back.”
“Yeah, this is a matter between you young people, I won’t interfere.” Yan Jun was about to leave but turned back.
Shen Chengfeng looked at the figure who had returned and asked, “Do you have anything else to do?”
Yan Jun nodded, “Your uncle just told me that he has applied for a temporary transfer order, and he may stay in the Iron Eagle Special Forces for the next month.”
Shen Chengfeng’s expression was calm, as if this matter had nothing special to him.
Yan Jun coughed lightly, “You may not know this yet, but I think it’s necessary to let you know in advance. Didn’t your uncle live in Cangshan when he was recovering from his injuries? During that time, he fell in love with the fourth son of the Xiao family who lived next door. I don’t know if he deliberately wants to make our Yan family extinct, but he insists on marrying the fourth son of the Xiao family. Fortunately, the fourth son of the Xiao family went to the military camp, and he was also transferred to the border.”
Shen Chengfeng tightened his grip imperceptibly.
Yan Jun sighed, “I don’t know how he got to know that Xiao Jing was in your Iron Eagle.”
“The military camp is not a place for romance, and the special operations team is certainly not a platform for him to get the upper hand. I will report this to my superiors immediately. If he wants to join the special operations team to play, I think the Zhenghu Team is more suitable for him.” Shen Chengfeng said seriously.
Yan Jun frowned, “They say nephews resemble their uncles. Just look at your personality and you’ll know what kind of person he is. Do you think he will obey your orders?”
“Xiao Jing is currently on a mission abroad, so even if he goes to Iron Eagle, it will be useless.”
“I mean for you to transfer Xiao Jing away, do you understand?” Yan Jun tapped the table lightly with her fingertips, “In order to prevent your Iron Eagle from being messed up by him, this Xiao Jing cannot be left behind. Since he is a member of the Xiao family, he can be transferred to Zhenghu.”
“Xiao Jing has made continuous contributions recently. He cannot be transferred away easily. Moreover, I cannot abandon my soldiers just for an outsider. How can I convince others with such behavior?”
“Is your uncle an outsider?”
“In my eyes, my soldiers are my own people.” Shen Chengfeng said without hesitation.
Yan Jun pointed at this ruthless guy and nodded, “If you don’t want to transfer Xiao Jing, I can’t control it. I just told you in advance. Either you temporarily assign a task to Xiao Jing or transfer him. If you want to stop your uncle, I’m afraid it will be useless. Think about it yourself.”
“I know how to deal with it.” Shen Chengfeng lay back on the bed.
Yan Jun once again looked at her son with a serious expression, wondering whether she should take this opportunity to talk to him about the important events in his future life.
Shen Chengfeng looked over with a paralyzed face, clearly with an indifferent aura that kept people at a distance.
Yan Jun felt like there was something stuck in her throat, so she chose to walk out of the room in silence.
Shen Chengfeng lay on the bed, looking at the pale ceiling expressionlessly. The whole room suddenly became quiet and the air around him gradually became heavy, as if it had suddenly frozen, with icicles falling down with a crackling sound.
As night fell, the entire sky was painted a brilliant crimson.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
There was a knock on the door, and then someone pushed the door open.
Xiao Jing opened her eyes sleepily. She didn’t see anyone but she could smell a strong fragrance in the air. So she sat up almost reflexively.
The aroma of meat mixed with the aroma of rice was like a pair of tempting hands licking her lips, making her drool instantly.
“Captain, have you eaten?” Xiao Jing twisted her stiff body, preparing to lift the quilt and jump down.
“If you don’t want to break your leg again, just lie down quietly.” Shen Chengfeng opened the lunch box.
Xiao Jing estimated the distance between them, it was three meters apart. Could he be so cruel as to let her watch him eat?
But if she thought carefully about her captain’s sultry personality, it was very likely that he would really do that.
Let her watch pitifully as he ate the meat, gnawed on the ribs and chewed the rice with relish.
Shen Chengfeng picked out some meat and put it into the lunch box and finally handed it to her.
Xiao Jing’s eyes suddenly lit up. She held the meat in her hands. Her arms were wrapped in a fist of bandages. She tried very hard to get the meat in the spoon into her mouth, but it was always just a little short of the mark.
Finally she gave up the spoon and just picked it up with her mouth.
“Are you a pig?” Shen Chengfeng sat on the edge of the bed, opened her head, picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and handed it to her mouth.
Xiao Jing twisted her head and forced herself to calm down. There was no way the captain would be so friendly to her, but her mouth opened on its own initiative and took in the piece of meat, her mouth full of oil. She raised her lips and smiled, a heartless smile.
Shen Chengfeng scooped a spoonful of rice and put it near her mouth.
Xiao Jing shook her head, “Captain, meat, meat is delicious.”
Shen Chengfeng gave up feeding her rice and picked up the meat again. “You should know that you can’t exercise now. If you overeat again, you will be obese before you are discharged from the hospital. The special forces have a strict weight control system. Any deviation will cause you to fail the training.”
“Cough, cough, cough.” Xiao Jing couldn’t catch her breath and couldn’t help coughing.
Shen Chengfeng put down the lunch box and poured a glass of water and brought it to her mouth.
Xiao Jing murmured to herself, “They don’t even let people eat enough or eat well.”
“This is just the first time. It won’t happen again.” Shen Chengfeng picked up the piece of meat and handed it to her mouth.
Xiao Jing opened her mouth and took a bite, and smiling innocently, she said: “Captain is great.”
Shen Chengfeng snorted coldly, “Don’t think that just because you give me a few perfunctory compliments, I can ignore the rules you break time and time again.”
Xiao Jing picked up the spoon, scooped up a mouthful of rice and handed it to his mouth, smiling, “Captain, eat too.”
“Are you asking me to eat your saliva?” He swallowed it in one gulp. “After you go back, add another 3,000 words of self-criticism.”
“Why?” Xiao Jing asked unwillingly.
Shen Chengfeng stared at her, “You are blaspheming your superior.”
Xiao Jing clenched the spoon and said through gritted teeth: “You don’t have to eat it.”
“Am I not hungry?”
Xiao Jing choked and coughed, “How about you bring the food over and I’ll feed you too?”
“You think I’ll give you a chance to blaspheme me again?”
“No, I respect you as if you were my ancestor.”
“…”
“Captain, I think outsiders have a misunderstanding of you. They say you are an arrogant living devil. In fact, they have all misunderstood. You are clearly an angel with a halo. I can even see the little wings hidden behind you.”
Shen Chengfeng stuffed the meat into her mouth, and for some reason, it seemed to block her mouth.
Xiao Jing chewed the meat in her mouth and continued, “Captain, if you can’t move your hands and feet in the future, I will definitely serve you like an ancestor and serve you wholeheartedly.”
“Shut up.”
“Captain, don’t think that what I said was just flattery. My words are from the bottom of my heart. I feel that from now on I am yours, and I will never forget you until I die.”
Shen Chengfeng put down the lunch box with a bang.
Xiao Jing kept silent and looked timidly at the expressionless face in front of her, as if she had flattered too much without realizing it.
“Have you said enough?” Shen Chengfeng asked.
“Ahem.”
“Remember what you said today.”
Xiao Jing was stunned, as if she had said something wrong accidentally.

Tell Xiaoman loudly whether it looks good or not, hahaha.
