People who have never been in the military might not be able to understand the intensity of this desire. Although I had a lot more freedom when I was in the headquarters, but ever since I came to the teaching brigade and was in charge of the special training team, I never had the chance to go out and relax.
If I say it out loud, others might laugh at me, but the happy little life I yearned for was very easy to satisfy.
It was nothing more than sitting at a roadside stall, ordering two bottles of beer, eating mutton skewers, a plate of peanuts, a plate of snails, and simply chatting with friends while eating and drinking, that kind of feeling was the happiest!
And this kind of life, would probably be very difficult to achieve before I retire.
Therefore, facing Marisia and Instructor Fang's combined persuasion, I was also conflicted.
Marisia pulled my arm and continued to persuade, "Since you're already here, why don't we go together, Chief Instructor Zhao. What's more, we're two girls, are you not worried about us?"
However, Instructor Fang came over and added fuel to the fire, "Yeah, Chief Instructor Zhao, let's go together. I really want to have a good talk with you and have a drink or two with you. You're the person I admire the most. At this time, I really want to talk to you guys, then maybe in my heart …" Instructor Fang lowered her head as she said that.
Marisia finished the rest for her, "That way Chief Instructor Fang will feel better."
Facing the flattery and attacks of the two beauties, the young and impulsive me was shaken.
I'm going for broke!
If I can enlighten Chief Instructor Fang through my own efforts, then I can be considered to have achieved success.
At most, I won't sleep tonight, and pull an all-nighter, we can still make it through!
Thinking like that, my head heated up, and I agreed to Marisia and Chief Instructor Fang's request.
Thus, the three of us walked out of the door together.
But just as we walked a few steps, we suddenly heard a hurried sound of military leather shoes hitting the ground behind us.
Turning around to look, I found out that it was the sentry of the gate guard who chased after us, and asked as he chased, "Chief Instructor Zhao, can you tell me where you guys are going?"
I was stunned for a moment. Then, I asked half-jokingly, "What? Now that you know where we are going, are you going to complain to your superiors and ask for credit?" Actually, saying this was also a kind of cautious probing.
The sentry had already approached and laughed heartily, "Instructor Zhao, what are you thinking? I'm just asking casually.
If it's convenient for Chief Instructor Zhao, you can leave us your phone number so that we can inform you as soon as possible if anything happens! "
I patted the soldier's shoulder and said, "There's no need.
Thank you for your kindness! "
The sentry chuckled. "Instructor Zhao, I'll tell you the truth. I asked for your phone number out of selfishness!"
I didn't understand. "What selfish motives do you have?"
The sentinel said, "Of course I want to — I want to take you as my master!
I'll learn Sanda from you! "
Then, he looked at me with a pair of longing eyes. He stood straight, and the light breeze blew. Under the illumination of the lights, he looked particularly energetic.
I smiled back and nodded at him. Then, I turned around and walked away.
When I took three to five steps and looked back again, the sentry had already returned to the guardhouse.
I suddenly had a sense of foreboding.
His right eyelid twitched uncontrollably …
The few of us walked together to Gu 'an town and sat down in a small restaurant.
The change in environment made me even more aware of how ridiculous what I did today was!
For some reason, when Marisia and Instructor Fang walked out, they immediately became a lot more spirited. Marisia's face was full of smiles. Her outspoken straightforwardness and cuteness was intoxicating. Although Instructor Fang still hasn't gotten rid of the shadow of being heartbroken, he was clearly a lot more clear-headed than before. There was no trace of anger or anger on his face.
Seeing this, I comforted myself in my heart. "It seems like sneaking out this time was a wise choice!
The dishes gradually came up. We cleaned up the dishes and Marisia poured everyone's bowls full of beer.
After pouring the beer, Marisia joked, "If I knew it would be so hard to come out today, I would have climbed the wall!
We wasted so much precious time. Otherwise, we would have arrived here half an hour ago! "
I smiled and said, "Marisia, are you joking around with your life?
You should know that there is not only a layer of glass on the walls of the teaching brigade, there is also a circle of electric nets! "
Marisia said, "A circle of electric nets?
That shouldn't be a problem for us, right?
As long as we can think of a way, there are plenty of ways! "
I used my chopsticks to poke Marisia and said kindly, "Marisia, there is something wrong with your mind. What, do you want to escape?"
Marisia said something shocking, "I want to escape from prison!"
Marisia's word 'escape from prison' stimulated a myriad of feelings in my heart.
To be precise, these two words, when used here, had a different kind of meaning.
The reason why the teaching brigade was equipped with electric nets was not only to guard against thieves, but more importantly to prevent internal escape.
Because the teaching brigade was a place to train new recruits, every year in December, the new recruits would gather here to participate in a three month long (previously six month) recruit training.
These three months were the turning point for a young man who had just joined the society, or in other words, a new recruit, to become a qualified soldier. It was inevitable that many people would not be able to adapt to the tough training all of a sudden, and some even had the idea of 'running away'.
I remember when I was a new recruit, there were two city soldiers who couldn't take the hardships. They threw away their tools and ran away while they were shoveling snow on the road outside the base.
In the end, he was quickly chased by a few class leaders. Before he could go two kilometers, he was firmly captured and brought back …
Thinking about it, it is quite interesting. Many people describe the military as a 'politically superior prison'. Although it is a bit of a joke to compare the military and prison, there are similarities.
After all, the military in China is different from the military in other countries. There is less freedom and less indulgence.
On the other hand, the two girls' alcohol tolerance was different. After a few bottles of beer, the two of them didn't even blush and kept smiling at me.
Of course, Marisia and I used the excuse of drinking to comfort Instructor Fang. Instructor Fang listened to Marisia's and my advice and kept nodding.
Instructor Fang also revealed a bit about the reason why she broke up with Secretary Zhang, but she didn't say it in detail. She only said that she felt she couldn't get along with Secretary Zhang's personality. Secretary Zhang was calculative, narrow-minded, and had bad intentions … These details caused the conflict between them to accumulate to the point where it was irreconcilable.
Speaking of which, I still had a question, so I took the opportunity to ask Instructor Fang, "Instructor Fang, why is Zhang Dengqiang so sure that there is a special relationship between us?" I felt that something was fishy when I remembered Secretary Zhang's strange words and actions during the day.
Why would he associate me with Instructor Fang for no reason?
Could it be that just working together and talking together was a sign of love between a man and a woman?
Instructor Fang didn't answer this question, but from her eyes, I seemed to feel some complicated elements.
There must be a story behind this.
Seeing that Instructor Fang refused to answer, I didn't ask any further. I thought that it wouldn't be too late to ask after she completely recovered.
The truth will come to light sooner or later!
Then we talked about everything under the sun, and had a great time.
Marisia toasted me with a glass of wine, then came over and said, "Instructor Zhao, I'm very happy to come out with you today. I'll take this opportunity to express my blessings to you!"
I was momentarily stunned. Marisia looked at me with a smile, her cheeks were already slightly rosy.
Her face was full of sincerity, making it impossible for me to refuse.
Thus I downed the glass of wine in one gulp to express my gratitude.
Instructor Fang, on the other hand, looked at Marisia and I with a slight frown. After a while, she said, "I'm starting to realize that Instructor Zhao is actually quite handsome!"
This sentence made Marisia even more lively. She stared at me and smiled, "Yeah, yeah, Instructor Zhao is a completely handsome guy …"
I was completely confused by the words of these two beauties.
Maybe they were flattering me, maybe they were numbing me …
Why did they suddenly mention this?
However, I still pinched my nose and laughed at the two of them, "Don't praise me for being handsome, it's easy to get arrogant."
The two girls were so happy that flowers bloomed on their lips.
The laughter lasted for a long time.
However, Instructor Fang suddenly stopped smiling. She sighed and said with a lot of emotions, "I really envy Yu-meimei for getting a boyfriend like Instructor Zhao.
Compared to Instructor Zhao, then think about that Zhang Dengqiang. Ai, comparing people makes people angry! "
Marisia said, "Instructor Fang, please forgive me for speaking bluntly. I can tell that Zhang Dengqiang isn't a good person.
He even wears a pair of glasses to pretend to be refined. His words and actions are very pretentious, giving people a sense of disgust … Breaking up with him now is a wise choice. You should celebrate this! "
Instructor Fang raised her glass and said with a smile, "Marisia is right, I'll treat it as a celebration.
Let Zhang Dengqiang go to hell in my world! "
Marisia raised her glass and drank with Instructor Fang. She pointed at me and said, "That's right.
In the future, try to find someone as excellent as Instructor Zhao and piss off that hypocrite Zhang Dengqiang to death! "
Looking at the two women talking and laughing, I didn't make a sound. I just held a cigarette in my mouth and thought about the many encounters I had with Secretary Zhang. I felt very emotional.
To be exact, the three of us chatted very congenially, from international anecdotes to personal feelings, from the origin of human beings to human civilization … We chatted until around one o 'clock in the morning. Instructor Fang's worried expression basically disappeared. Although she hasn't completely returned to her previous cheerfulness and happiness, her complicated feelings have obviously weakened a lot.
Seeing that Instructor Fang's mood was getting better and better, the stone in my heart finally landed on the ground.
It was worth taking such a big risk to come out this time.
Around 1: 30 in the morning, I saw that the time was right, so I began to urge them to return to the special training team.
But the two of them seemed to have had a lot of fun outside. They shook their heads desperately. Marisia suggested, "How about we go to karaoke for a while?
Since we came out at night, let's have a good time. It's so boring in the special training team! "
Instructor Fang also echoed, "That's a good idea, a good idea."
I frowned at the two of them and sighed, "You two are going too far, right?
I took such a big risk to let you come out to relax, and now you're addicted! "
Marisia stepped forward and grabbed my arm, and said, "Instructor Zhao, you are usually tired from training. What are you afraid of coming out to relax? Are you afraid that Instructor Fang and I will eat you?"
I shook off Marisia's hand and pretended to be angry, "Okay, don't say anything.
That's it for today, let's go home! "
I ordered and took the lead to walk out. A cool breeze blew on my face, which was particularly pleasant.
Marisia and Officer Fang reluctantly followed, and stood on both sides of me with grievances. They muttered something in their mouths, which was meant to complain that I didn't agree to their proposal.
I couldn't help but admit: These two are really playful people. Once they start playing, they forget what they're doing!
But it was gratifying that Instructor Fang's mood seemed to be very stable now.
