Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 351: Chapter 204: Sourness

Hidden behind the wall, she was intently watching the road across from her, awaiting the arrival of her target, when a black pistol aimed right at her without her noticing.

As the trigger was about to be pulled, he appeared out of nowhere, shielding her with his body. The bullet struck his left chest, blood gushing forth.

A vivid red spread across his clothes, staining the entire sky and earth red, making her feel as if the whole world had turned blood-red. She threw herself onto him in utter despair, ”Tiger! Open your eyes, talk to me! Tiger...”

He weakly glanced at her, ”Silly girl, don’t cry. You are a soldier, you shouldn’t cry. In the future, make yourself happier. Tiger can no longer protect Little Yezi, Little Yezi must protect herself, understand?”

”No! I can’t, Little Yezi needs Tiger’s protection...” Tears gushed from her eyes like springs. He reached out his arms to wipe her tears, but his strength failed him, and his arm fell limply, ”Tiger! Tiger! You can’t...”

With her face burning red and brows deeply furrowed, she occasionally cried out ”Tiger,” deeply troubling Ye Xuan’s heart as he gently patted her, ”Ye’er, Ye’er...”

She suddenly sat up, grasping Ye Xuan’s arm aimlessly, her expression anxious, ”Tiger, Tiger is okay, right?”

Ye Xuan gently stroked her back, ”Ye’er, try to calm down. You are at the school hospital. If the Tiger you are referring to is Ye Mo, then he’s fine.”

Slowly, Luo Ye’s senses returned to her, and she realized that it was all just a nightmare. Before this, she should have been participating in a mountain cross-country race, her last memory being of carrying Liu Xing, and seeing a familiar figure standing far off at the school’s entrance...

”How’s Liu Xing? He’s okay, right?”

Mou Ye’s anxious tone caused a bit of jealousy to flare in Ye Xuan’s heart—crying out for one in her dreams and asking about another upon waking. How come there was nothing about him? However, his face remained calm as he smiled, ”He’s fine, also in the school hospital.”

”Eh? I’m sick?” The person finally realized where she was, noting the IV on her wrist.

Ye Xuan, speechless, rubbed his forehead, suddenly feeling that his own feelings of dejection were frivolous—why trouble himself over such a confused person?

”Heh heh..., Brother Ye, were you taking care of me?” Mou Ye fully regained her composure, smiling flatteringly at Ye Xuan, feeling very embarrassed about her earlier behavior.

Ye Xuan nodded, ”That’s right, finally recognizing me now, should I scatter some flowers to celebrate?”

Mou Ye grinned, ”Brother Ye, you sound a bit sour, could it be that you’re feeling jealous?”

”Go on, what’s with that little brain of yours always asking unnecessary questions? Lie down quickly. What would you like to eat? I’ll go make it for you when I get back,” Ye Xuan said as he carefully tucked her back into bed.

”You can cook?” Mou Ye’s eyes widened almost unbelievingly, as if ready to write ’unbelievable’ across her forehead.

”Of course.” Ye Xuan carefully tucked in the corners of the blanket, ”You know, be smarter from now on. Carrying a man over 140 pounds in such heavy rain, you really overestimated yourself!”

”I was worried his foot would be ruined. You don’t know, when I saw his ankle swollen like a bowl, I was terrified. What if it ended up crippled? Aunt Nie would be heartbroken!”

”Didn’t he have a flare? Couldn’t you have just fired the flare for him?”

Mou Ye pouted, ”That would mean giving up, wouldn’t it? A soldier doesn’t just give up easily!”

”I...” Ye Xuan was frustrated and tapped her forehead, ”Coming up here, why are you so stubborn? If you gave up the mountain cross-country, there would still be other events. Now, he probably can’t move for three to five days. That’s a real forfeit!”

”Then... what should we do?” Luo Ye hastily grabbed Ye Xuan’s wrist, ”Brother Ye, please help, is there any way the selection can be postponed for a few days?”

”Do you think that’s possible? Military orders are absolute, I can’t just change them on a whim,” Ye Xuan hesitated slightly, ”Why are you helping him so much?”

Luo Ye nodded her head towards the door, ”Is it safe here?”

Ye Xuan checked the door, placed a sensor along the corner of the wall, then returned with a device to scan the room for a while, and nodded, ”It’s safe now.”

”He needs to become stronger because...” Luo Ye detailed her conversation with Liu Xing to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan leaned on his forehead and pondered, ”The man is almost certainly identified, but he’s cunning and we don’t yet have evidence to catch him; even the bosses can’t handle him.

It’s highly likely that Liu Zhengxing used the last bit of leverage he had for his son’s benefit by sending Liu Xing to GF University. We can definitely say Liu Zhengxing used his own sealed fate to win a bit of a protective charm for his son, since graduating from GF University offers a more solid path compared to others.

Of course, it’s possible that man wants to use Liu Xing to get close to Ye’er to blackmail the Wen and Luo Families to support him. However, Ye’er you don’t have to worry, his threats won’t succeed. As soon as he makes a move, I’ll get wind of it. Right now, we just wait for him to act.”

Luo Ye dejectedly nodded her head, ”Alright, I hope there’s a chance for make-up selection later. Liu Xing is truly skilled; this was pure accident. It took so much to convince him to stop hiding his capabilities, and now this...”

”For him, being an ordinary military officer isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Alright, I’ll find a nurse to keep you company, and I’ll go back to cook for you.”

Mou Ye blinked pitifully, ”Brother Ye, I’m a patient...”

”Are you not sick enough to eat what I cook?” Ye Xuan glared at her, ”Do you have so little faith in my cooking skills?”

”Hehe... Brother Ye, a handsome guy like you cooking soup, it’s a pity Ye can’t witness it with her own eyes!” Mou Ye quickly delivered some flattery.

Ye Xuan’s lips curled into a smile: ”What, you want to see me cook?”

Instinctively feeling it might be dangerous to continue this topic, Mou Ye giggled foolishly: ”Hehe..., why haven’t Xing Nong and Yaoguang come to see me?”

”I sent them back to rest.” Ye Xuan’s large hand touched her forehead to check: ”You must stay in the hospital tonight, don’t get any funny ideas.”

”When have I ever had funny ideas?” Mou Ye looked frustrated, why do they always treat her like a child, why why why...

...

Having a day off, Mou Ye chatted with Liu Xing for a while, then aimlessly wandered around the campus, believing in the idea that good rest leads to good results, Mr. Ye, with this one sentence, kept her blocked in the hospital.

However, the food prepared by Boss Ye was really delicious, Mou Ye smacked her lips remembering, after moving to the boarding school, the meals made by Boss Ye were the most delicious she had ever tasted.

Mushroom, bok choy and beef porridge made last night, salted duck egg porridge made this morning, along with fried yellow egg pancakes, who would have thought, Boss Ye has such great cooking skills, doubting his skills yesterday was not right, she needs to let him cook more often, hmm... it’s settled!

”Miss, how do I get to the dormitory building of the sixth team instructors?”

Caught off-guard by the question, Luo Ye turned around, seeing the face of the person asking, her eyes reddened slightly, quickly controlling her emotions, she forced a smile: ”Auntie, are you going to the instructors’ building of the sixth team?”

The middle-aged woman smiled awkwardly: ”Yes, I’m bad with directions, I asked clearly but got more confused as I walked.”

”I’ll take you there.” Luo Ye warmly took the bag the woman was carrying, suppressing her excitement: ”Auntie, are you planning to stay for a while?”

The woman nodded: ”Yes, I just completed my retirement procedures and came to find my son, he’s finally settled for a while, and I can take good care of him.”

”Which instructor is your son?” Luo Ye asked casually.

The woman proudly said: ”My son is Ye Mo, do you know him, girl?”

Luo Ye pretended to be surprised: ”You’re Brother Ye’s mom? He is the chief instructor of the sixth team. I’m not very close to him but I know him.”

”That’s quite a coincidence.” Mrs. Ye looked delighted, sizing up Luo Ye: ”Such a pretty girl, you must also be a student here?”

Luo Ye sweetly smiled, linking arms with the woman: ”You flatter me, Auntie. I’m also a new student this year, I had a cold yesterday, and the chief instructor granted me a day off to rest.”

Mrs. Ye quickly grabbed the bag from Luo Ye’s hands: ”Oh dear, you frail little thing, how can you carry stuff with a cold? Here, give it back to me.”

Luo Ye dodged: ”It’s okay, Auntie, my fever has gone down, some light activity will help me recover faster.”

”Luo Ye!” A thunderous shout scared Mrs. Ye, and Luo Ye frowned and turned around: ”Instructor!”

”Why aren’t you resting in bed if you’re sick, and instead roaming around?” Hang Menglin said with displeasure.

”Reporting to the instructor, the doctor advised me to walk around.” Luo Ye secretly rolled her eyes, this female Yama, why has she resurrected after a few quiet days?

”Then why aren’t you at the training field?”

”Reporting to the instructor, the doctor said I’m not suited for heavy exercise right now!”

”What a delicate princess!” Hang Menglin pointed at Mrs. Ye: ”What’s this about? Don’t you know family visits are not permitted during military training? Do you think just because Chief Ye is protecting you, you can make exceptions?”

Mrs. Ye quickly explained: ”Misunderstanding, miss, I’m not this young lady’s relative, I’m here to find my son, just got lost and this kind lady was helping me out.”

”Who is your son?” emphasized Hang Menglin: ”If he is a freshman, he cannot see his parents either.”

Mrs. Ye smiled: ”My son is not a freshman, he’s the chief instructor of the sixth team, Ye Mo.”

”Remember, first you are a soldier, and then a woman!”

Watching Hang Menglin walk away with a huff after finishing her words, Mrs. Ye looked uncertainly at Luo Ye: ”Miss, what did the instructor mean?”

”Auntie, my name is Luo Ye, you can call me Ye’er, the instructor has a bit of a temper, don’t mind her, I’ll take you to Brother Ye.”
