Chapter 66: Familiar
Chen Ming drove the car and hummed a song. Drive happily on the mountain path.
What happened just now, since Lu Huaicheng said that he had his own plans, Chen Ming no longer worried about it.
In his previous life, Chen Ming was very envious of what he saw in the road movie, the protagonist drove a car, blew the wind, and hummed a song. For this reason, he was also ready to take the driver's license test and prepare to find a job as a driver, but none of the novice drivers dared to ask for it except for online car-hailing, and the loan car purchase contract of online car-hailing made Chen Ming afraid.
After getting a driver's license in the shipyard in this life, he has not had many opportunities to drive. Even if this car is now, it can only blow the wind, and there is no audio.
But vocal accompaniment is not impossible, Chen Ming sang an English song called "Lay Low" that he heard on the Internet in his previous life. can practice speaking without speaking, and the kind of indulgence away from the hustle and bustle sung in the lyrics is also envied by Chen Ming, who was constantly busy with survival in his previous life.
Soon, Chen Ming drove the car to the scheduled meeting point. On the side of the small bridge on the mountain road, park the car, get out of the car and light a cigarette and wait for Zheng Yuanhai and others to appear.
Presumably Zheng Yuanhai should be very pleasantly surprised to see him, Chen Ming thought to his mouth while smoking.
The cigarette in Chen Ming's hand smoked quickly, and he hadn't smoked on the ship for more than two days, but he was suffocated. When he turned his head to throw a cigarette butt, Chen Ming saw a girl standing on the opposite side of the small bridge not far away.
Dressed plainly, with two braids tied behind his head, and a pair of big eyes sparkling at Chen Ming.
Chen Ming stepped forward a little puzzled. Could it be a girl from a nearby mountain village, or maybe she needs help?
However, before Chen Ming could speak, the girl suddenly began to retreat. Chen Ming stopped a little depressed, did he look so scary?
"Hello, comrade. Is there anything I can help you with? ”
Chen Ming stopped and said loudly. He did not continue to step forward, fearing that the girl would be frightened. It's just that he doesn't understand, these days, why are people afraid to be soldiers? I'm wearing a military uniform now.
The girl stood across the bridge and shook her head timidly.
"Are you waiting for someone?"
The girl nodded.
After Chen Ming tried to communicate with her a few more words, he always got a response of either nodding or shaking his head, and then gave up the idea of continuing to communicate.
He felt that he might have come early, and now he looked embarrassed to stand outside. I simply climbed back into the cab and rested with my legs on the steering wheel.
About half an hour later, Chen Ming heard a sound of footsteps. Quickly get up, open the cab door, and jump out of the truck.
"Hey, Brother Zheng. Surprised to see me? ”
"Chen Ming! What are you doing here?! Ouch, what a surprise! ”
Zheng Yuanhai saw Chen Mingleng for a moment, and then said happily.
At this time, he also found the girl in the distance, the girl who had eaten her sheep and was kind enough to bring them food.
"Eh, didn't the chief of staff come?"
Zheng Yuanhai asked. If the chief of staff hadn't come, he wouldn't have gotten any money now.
"No, the chief of staff has something to do when he returns to base. I'm not going to pick you up. ”
Chen Ming didn't know what Zheng Yuanhai was thinking, so he said honestly. It's just that he didn't disclose about the target assessment.
"Did you bring any money? Lend it to me first, and I'll pay it back to you when I go back. Zheng Yuanhai asked anxiously.
Money? Chen Ming was stunned. What do you want money for in this wilderness?
Then he took out the money handed over to him by the chief of staff from his pocket and handed it to Zheng Yuanhai. At the same time, he asked.
"Why are you so anxious for money? Are you afraid that I will be greedy or that the chief of staff will pay the bills? ”
"Oh no. Over there, did you see that girl? That kid was going to school. ”
Chen Ming followed Zheng Yuanhai's instructions and looked over, wasn't it the girl who dodged him just now? It turned out that the person she was waiting for was Zheng Yuanhai?
"Wait, bring my share with you."
Chen Ming grabbed Zheng Yuanhai, who was in a hurry and wanted to leave, and stuffed all the cash in his pocket to him.
"Chen Ming, what about your salary for several months. Could it be too much? ”
Zheng Yuanhai looked at the thickness of the money in his hand and hesitated.
"Don't mother-in-law, it's not like you don't know me. It's not good to buy prizes for a few months when I'm on the boat, and besides, I still have a bonus for meritorious service. ”
Chen Ming said indifferently.
This is also what he said in his heart, he doesn't have a girlfriend now, and he usually has the state to pay for his food, clothing, housing and transportation in the army. In addition to buying cigarettes, his salary is basically spent on the dinner of his comrades-in-arms, and now there is no one to get together with him in the office.
What's more, Chen Ming believes that with the accumulation of entertainment works in his previous life, plus the skills he has cultivated in this life. He will never be short of money in the future.
"Cheng, then I'll thank you for her."
After Zheng Yuanhai finished speaking, he ran across the bridge.
The girl was not afraid of him, and the two of them muttered something. Then Zheng Yuanhai pointed in Chen Ming's direction, and the girl looked up and looked over.
Chen Ming was slightly stunned when he saw the girl's face, why did this girl look a little familiar? It's like I've seen it somewhere.
At this time, the girl raised her arm and waved at Chen Ming, and Chen Ming also waved to her.
"Comrade report assistant, the patrol line team has been assembled, there should be 8 people, but there are 8 people, please instruct!"
After Zheng Yuanhai ran back, he began to form a team in a fake manner.
"You can pull it down, brothers, don't listen to his nonsense, get on the bus." Brother Zheng is the co-pilot, there is something I want to ask you on the road. ”
Chen Ming pretended to kick Zheng Yuanhai, who dodged with a smile, and saw Jiang Xizi methodically organizing his comrades-in-arms to board the car, so he followed Chen Ming into the cab with confidence.
"What's the matter, do you ask? Did the chief of staff ask you to ask something? ”
"No, don't think about it. It's for me to ask, what's the situation with that girl? ”
Chen Ming saw Zheng Yuanhai's serious expression, and knew that he was thinking too much, so he quickly explained. After all, Zheng Yuanhai is now in a state of pending investigation, and as Lu Huaicheng's assistant, he can understand this question.
"You said Mei Xing'er? We met while patrolling in the mountains. When did you gossip like that? ”
Zheng Yuanhai raised his eyebrows as he spoke, smiling evilly.
"Or do you have a crush on her?"
"Don't be foolish. I just look at her and think it's familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere? ”
Chen Ming blushed a little when he heard Zheng Yuanhai's joke.
"Yo, my face is red. I mean, your excuse is lame. If you like it, you can say that the girl is very good. ”
Zheng Yuanhai said with a gossip on his face and began to fold his fingers.
"Diligent and studious, diligent and thrifty. It's just that the conditions at home are a little worse, but that's not a problem. I suggested that someone take the military school entrance examination, you have to hurry up, and I'll take you to her when I have time. Otherwise, where will this person be distributed by then, but don't blame me for not reminding you. ”
"Go, go, go. Isn't it okay if I don't ask? ”
Chen Ming was so embarrassed by Zheng Yuanhai's words that he had to give up. Think of it as your own delusion.
