Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1095: Chapter 647: Night Visit / Recruitment_2

...

The next day, Luo Ye spent the day with Wen Xin and Old Sir Luo, and after her father returned home from work, she caught a 7 PM flight back to Sha City.

Wen Xin was reluctant to let her daughter leave so suddenly. At the moment of parting, her eyes turned red as she held her daughter tightly, unwilling to let go. If it wasn’t for pressing matters, Luo Ye would have considered staying one more day.

But there are things that cannot be delayed. As soon as she landed, she immediately called Feng Tianzhi and learned that he was already back at B Division. She hailed a car and rushed to the B Division station.

Why is Little Ye’er calling me so late? Should I have been so cold to her? Or maybe my cold attitude has worked, and Little Ye’er has realized she has feelings for me...

Feng Tianzhi, who was lost in wild thoughts after turning off the TV, suddenly stood up and walked two steps outside, but then returned dejectedly. Given Little Ye’er’s character, that possibility was very low. He had really gotten obsessed.

With a sigh, his gaze returned to the military philosophy spread out on the table... Ten minutes passed, and he hadn’t turned a page. Who says that wild thoughts are a woman’s patent?

”Knock knock...”

Interrupted from his thoughts, Feng Tianzhi impatiently replied, ”Come in!”

”Commander, someone is looking for you.” Gao Lei, the company commander of the third company, appeared at the door.

Feng Tianzhi looked at him expressionlessly: ”Who?”

Gao Lei suddenly regretted it; Feng Commander had been demoted to Mr. Feng, and he wasn’t in a good mood. Why did he have to come at this moment?

The key issue was, he had never seen Feng Commander—oh no, Mr. Feng—being enthusiastic about any girl. Had he known... had he known he wouldn’t have taken this errand. But the girl seemed pretty spirited, maybe... it would be different?

”Who exactly?”

Feng Tianzhi’s impatient voice made Gao Lei shiver, and he quickly responded, ”She said her name is Luo Ye, and she asked me to...” Before he could finish, Feng Tianzhi was already gone.

”Oh my God, who is that person...” Gao Lei murmured softly in his hometown dialect after regaining his senses and walked towards Company Three. But halfway, he couldn’t resist his curiosity and quietly turned towards the reception room.

...

In the reception room of B Division, Mr. Zhu Hongyu poured a cup of water and handed it to Luo Ye: ”Luo, have some water.”

”Thank you.” Luo Ye, who was really thirsty from the rushed journey, picked up the cup and drank it bottom-up, smiling awkwardly, ”Could I have another cup?”

”Sure.” The originally stern Mr. Zhu Hongyu now had a smile in her eyes, ”The female soldiers these days, especially the student soldiers here for internships, always pretend to be ladies. Tell me, if soldiers act like ladies, can they still be called soldiers?”

After another half cup of water, Luo Ye finally felt refreshed, put down the cup, and smiled at Mr. Zhu Hongyu: ”Mr. Zhu is right; it’s hard to be a lady when you’re a soldier.”

”You think so too?” Mr. Zhu moved a bit closer to Luo Ye, sizing her up, ”Consider interning with our B Division after graduation.

Let me tell you an unannounced news: our B Division plans to form a Female Special Forces Team, ranked higher than ordinary units. Come join us; with me here, no one will dare bully you.”

Luo Ye’s lips curved up; this Mr. Zhu Hongyu, looking around thirty, initially seemed hard to approach with her face full of pride, but unexpectedly turned out to be such a straightforward big sister.

”What is it, you don’t trust me?” Mr. Zhu sat up straight, ”To be honest with you, in B Division, just mentioning my name, Zhu Hongyu, and no one dares to challenge.”

”You...” Luo Ye’s eyes showed interest.

”Originally, I was the commander of the third regiment. After a small mistake, they made me serve as an officer for now, but in a month, I’ll be transferred back...” Mr. Zhu Hongyu laughed, ”The Mr. Feng you came to see is just like me, an unlucky one. He was demoted from commander to division head, and I from division head to officer.

Many people in the division misunderstand him. Like me, he’s straightforward. I like such unpretentious men.

They say birds of a feather flock together; since you’re his friend, chances are you’re straightforward too... By the way, your behavior just verified this.

I like making friends with straightforward people; even crucial moments, I wouldn’t expect them to stab in the back. If you’re willing, call me Sister Zhu, how about it?”

Such a direct big sister was truly a first for Luo Ye. But seeing the sincerity in her eyes, she knew it wasn’t an act. Still, this behavior on the first meeting puzzled her, though puzzled, she smiled and extended her hand: ”Sister Zhu, I hope for your guidance in the future.”
