Chapter 53: The Peacemaker
When it was time to eat at noon, Chen Zui glanced at it from time to time, no matter how the five girls talked to each other, Li Chengjing and Leng Chuxian really didn't talk to each other, Leng Chuxian's attitude towards Li Chengjing was as cold as it was towards him.
They are friends, he and Leng Chuxian are also good friends, everyone has experienced life and death together, they should be the people who value each other the most, do they become incompatible for a love word?
Chen Zui has made up his mind, if Li Chengjing tells him tonight that the way they are now really has something to do with him, he can only find time to ask Leng Chuxian out to talk about it alone, and show her feelings and position, she can understand it best, otherwise she will not do anything against her heart.
Back in the dormitory, Duan Shaoling inquired about the situation in the morning, Chen Zui walked to the corridor with him, mentioned what Zou Baoer told him, and Li Chengjing asked him to go downstairs at night, and told him all the worries in his heart, Duan Shaoling advised him not to think about it first, and wait until the matter was clarified.
Li Chengjing and Leng Chuxian returned to the dormitory, and the two of them did their own thing. It's a pity that Zou Bao'er is caught in the middle, and even if she wants to say something, she has to tell who she is talking to, otherwise neither of them will pay attention to her. The two of them quarreled, but Zou Baoer felt that she was the most innocent one, and it was clear that it was none of her business, but she made both sides unpleasant.
Suddenly, the two of them walked to the door of the inner toilet, just bumped into each other, looked at each other stunned, and then went back separately, not even going to the toilet.
"Are you enough?" Zou Bao'er couldn't stand it anymore, "Aren't you the best sisters?" How did it take less than two days to become like this, and for what? They didn't want her, Zou Bao'er said boldly: "Is it because Chen is drunk?" ”
Leng Chuxian glanced at her and continued not to speak
"Bao'er, don't talk nonsense." Li Chengjing hurriedly interrupted: "I deceived Chu Xian and did something sorry for her, and she should blame me." ”
Zou Baoer really wanted to ask again, knowing that they wouldn't say anything. "I'd better move back upstairs first."
Li Chengjing persuaded: "You live well here, if you want to leave, I will go." ”
Zou Bao'er said: "You are only a girl in your infantry department, where can you move to?" At the very least, I can live with my nurses and sisters in the infirmary. ”
"Don't argue, I have already applied for a dormitory transfer the day after tomorrow in the morning." Leng Chuxian still said very coldly and calmly.
Li Chengjing was anxious, "Chu Xian, have you really decided to break off your friendship with me and never want to see me again?" ”
There was silence in the dormitory again, I don't know how long it was, Leng Chuxian said slowly: "Chengjing, can you give me a little time to calm down?" Gentle and a little helpless pleading.
This is the first time she has spoken to herself so calmly in the past two days, and Li Chengjing feels that it seems to be a long, long time since the last time she talked to herself like this. At least what she said was not breaking up friendship, and calming down meant that there was still a turnaround.
"Okay, I'll wait for you ......"
In the afternoon, Instructor Liu told them that the afternoon of the day after tomorrow was their last basic physical fitness assessment, and if they passed, they could carry out a higher level of actual combat training, including land fighting and marksmanship training in the early stage of training.
After two months of hard training, Chen Zui and Bai Wenhao still ranked first and second in basic comprehensive fitness, and Duan Shaoling and Li Chengjing have jumped to third and fourth. The ability of the rest of the people has also been greatly improved, even Xiang Haichuan, Lu Baiting and others, who were originally at the bottom, have also passed the assessment qualifiedly.
Today is Saturday, and those who should go home in the evening have returned home one after another, and Zou Baoer saw the two of them like this, and she didn't have the heart to stay here. She just went to church with Duan Shaoling last week, and she was embarrassed to make appointments so often, and she knew in her heart that Duan Shaoling didn't say anything, but she was actually not suitable for going to church. What's more, Li Chengjing's matter will definitely be told to Chen Zui, Chen Zui's matter, in addition to feelings, Duan Shaoling is also bound to help him share it. After dinner, she and Zou Baoyi asked the two siblings to go back together.
Since Li Chengjing said that she was talking to Chen Zui alone, Duan Shaoling was inconvenient to disturb, so she stayed in the dormitory by herself. His personality is not as unmovable as Chen's. He can be still and move, and if he stays in the dormitory, he won't feel bored either.
Chen was drunk on the lawn, and soon saw Li Chengjing coming over, alone, Leng Chuxian really didn't come with her.
There were only the two of them, and Chen Zui didn't beat around the bush, and asked her directly: "Chengjing, do you tell me if you have anything to do with me now?" ”
Li Chengjing also replied to him directly: "No, I lied to her this time." ”
Chen Zui heard that it had nothing to do with him, and the stone in his heart was put down, but he was curious about what Li Chengjing had deceived her and would cause their current disagreement. "What did you lie to her?"
Li Chengjing told him the whole thing from beginning to end, and finally asked, "If it were you, you would be very angry, right?" ”
"I will."
Chen Zui did not deliberately say things that went against her heart in order to coax her, but Li Chengjing thought that such an answer made her more down-to-earth. "Do you think Chu Xian will forgive me? Can we go back to the way we were? ”
Chen Zui lightly put his arm on her shoulder and said, "Whether it's love or friendship, what you really pay will not be so easy to take back." And you are sincere to Chu Xian, everyone can see it. She just learned that the truth is a little messy and a little angry, and with her cleverness, she will understand sooner or later, and it will be good for you to make a compensatory deal with her when the time comes. ”
"Is that so?" Li Chengjing's lost eyes flashed bright again.
"I originally thought it was related to me, since it's not, then let Shaoling know, it's necessary to listen to his opinion, you wait for me for a while."
Chen drunk back to the dormitory, Duan Shaoling was lying on the bed, and he didn't know what life events he was thinking about. "Shaoling, you come down with me, Cheng Jing needs your help with something."
"What's the matter?"
"I'll talk to you later."
On the way down, Chen Zui briefly recounted the reason for the incident......
Duan Shaoling listened carefully, and when he arrived on the lawn, Duan Shaoling saw Li Chengjing standing there helplessly, and said, "Everyone has experienced so many things, of course I believe that your feelings for Chu Xian and everyone are sincere." It's just that I have a word for you. ”
"Since Li Dashuai asked you to approach Chu Xian, he showed that he would definitely let you ask Chu Xian for funding in the future, I want to know what you will do at that time?"
Li Chengjing thought for a while and did not deny it: "You are right, my father just asked me to work with love, so that our Li family has a strong backing to support us in the north and south." ”
"Your dad is so ambitious." Chen Zui said without hesitation.
"Not only my father, in the troubled times, which warlord does not want to fight for the world, and he does not want to try his best to increase the favorable chips for himself to compete for the world, but the means used are different. At least my dad didn't exploit the common people underneath.
If that day really comes, I will only open my mouth to Chu Xian, and talk to the boss on behalf of the Li family in a dignified manner, exchanging money for equal interests. If I can do it, I will do it, and if I can't, I won't threaten each other with human favors. ”
Duan Shaoling smiled, and Li Chengjing's answer, without clarity or denial, was enough to show her sincerity.
Chen Zui said: "Shaoling, now among the few of us, only you are the most suitable to talk to Chu Xian." I want you to ask Chuxian to come out and talk to her well, you don't need to explain anything to Cheng Jing, just tell her what we said tonight and what you think, and I believe she will listen to what you say. ”
"Chengjing, what do you think?"
"I see what Shaoling means."
"I'll give it a try."
Chen Zui smiled: "Your words are so convincing, you must be okay." ”
"I still won't get in the way of your chat." Duan Shaoling turned around and walked back to the dormitory.
Chen Zui said softly: "Don't worry, there is Shaoling out of the horse, no problem." ”
"Hmm." Li Chengjing gently leaned on his shoulder, every time she leaned on Chen Zui's shoulder, a magical power would grow in her heart, making her feel at ease and dependable.
"What position does Minister Lin hold in your Li family? How could he send her to school to do internal response. Chen Zuifu said curiously.
"Before coming to school, I hadn't seen Minister Lin in the army, probably my father's secretary, or an underground lover." Li Chengjing said this in a very natural tone.
Chen Zui said: "You are a very enlightened daughter. ”
Li Chengjing laughed and said: "Over the years, I wish that my father's women could give birth to a son for him, so that I don't have to shoulder such a heavy burden alone." It seems that everything is fate, and I am destined to take on some responsibilities that I am unwilling and have to bear. ”
Chen Zui gently put his arm around her shoulder: "No matter how unpredictable the future is, I will face it hand in hand with you." ”
The next morning, Duan Shaoling went to eat a bowl of noodles opposite the school at nine o'clock, and sat in the tea shop next to him waiting for Leng Chuxian to come out of the school. When it was almost eleven o'clock, I saw her walking out of the school gate alone, and Duan Shaoling beckoned to her gently,
"Chu Xian."
Leng Chuxian was very surprised that he was there alone, and he seemed to come prepared, so he walked over.
"I've had four cups of tea to wait for you here." Duan Shaoling knew that she could guess that she was waiting for her here, and she didn't need to hide anything.
"Wait for me?"
Duan Shaoling stood up, "It's almost lunch, you should eat too, let's find a place to eat and talk." ”
Leng Chuxian followed him.
After walking two streets forward and walking to a restaurant, Duan Shaoling walked in, and Leng Chuxian followed in. The shopkeeper came over to greet them, Duan Shaoling ordered two things casually, and the shopkeeper went to prepare.
"You're here to be a lobbyist for Cheng Jing." Duan Shaoling said that after waiting for her four cups of tea, she had already guessed three points, and all the way here, she was basically sure that he was here for Li Chengjing today.
