Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1482: Chapter 865: Arrival

Upon hearing Master Zhou ask whether he was going to eat him or stop being a soldier, Qi Xing’s face turned bright red. He stammered for a while before finally squeezing out a few words: ”Neither... neither.”

Master Zhou looked at him with a refreshed expression, ”You look quite displeased, do you want to beat me up?”

Qi Xing suddenly squatted down, holding his head, ”Master, please don’t tease me, okay?” Although he was in a hurry, he still maintained his clarity.

He was aware of Master Zhou’s temperament; the other party was clearly toying with him.

But now with the roof on fire, he didn’t have the mind to chit-chat with him. Of course, he also didn’t ponder over why the other would toy with him.

”Who’s playing with you?” Master Zhou looked at him seriously, ”Didn’t you already go home to visit your family this year? Now suddenly asking for leave to go home again, you must give me a sufficient reason that qualifies for leave, right?

Just replying with ’a family emergency,’ isn’t that too general? Now you’re talking about bringing your spouse over, so, what’s the urgent reason for bringing her? You’re a veteran, you should understand what a soldier’s duties are.”

Qi Xing slowly stood up, took a few breaths, and looked solemnly at Master Zhou: ”My wife used to be my sister-in-law, now some matters are forcing her to leave home permanently, thus, I must bring her here.”

”Oh? How come you never mentioned this before?”

”The situation is extremely complex, I truly don’t know how to explain it to everyone. Currently, only Feng Tuan, Qian Dai Tuan, Major Zhu, and Major Luo know about it.

If Master Zhou looks at my SS-level file, there should be notes there as well.” Given Master Zhou’s rank, he could review Qi Xing’s SS-level file; therefore, he dared to say this.

Of course, it’s thanks to Feng Tianzhi that this matter went straight into the SS-level file, unbeknownst to everyone.

Master Zhou restrained his smile: ”Are you angry that I’m pushing for details now?”

”No!”

”Are you saying one thing and meaning another?”

”No!” Qi Xing looked seriously at Master Zhou, ”In this matter, you have the right to dig deeper. It’s my issue, it’s my fear that kept me from revealing it, all my fault.”

”Alright, my digging deeper is with the hope that you can rely on the troop like a family, nothing is off-limits to share with family.

You should trust your comrades, and also trust your own charisma. Alright...” Master Zhou checked the time, ”Leaving today wouldn’t be possible, organize your things and go tomorrow.”

”Yes!” Qi Xing exhaled a long breath, ”I will return as soon as possible, without affecting the subsequent training.”

Master Zhou waved his hand: ”Go ahead.”

”Yes!” Qi Xing responded and ran out hastily, though feeling somewhat off, unable to pinpoint exactly what was wrong.

”Approved?” Just as he reached the dormitory door, Qian Jiale came out to greet him.

”Approved.” Qi Xing grinned, ”The Master told me to leave tomorrow morning, however, I thought about it, there’s a train to East Mountain City past midnight, so I’m leaving tonight.

The family’s phone got disconnected, and no one answered at Fat Aunt’s house, I suspect something must have happened, otherwise, it wouldn’t be like this.”

”Alright, I’ll help you get a ticket, you pack your stuff and buy some gifts, with my sister-in-law coming over, Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi will be even busier, buy more supplements for them.” Qian Jiale said while handing him one thousand yuan, ”I know you’re short on cash, consider it a loan.”

”Where did you get so much cash?” Qi Xing looked perplexed, ”Usually, you only carry a few dozen yuan on you, when did you withdraw this?”

”Do I have to report everything I do to you?” Qian Jiale gestured to him, ”Alright, hurry up and buy supplements, stop dawdling.”

At the supermarket, looking at the myriad of nutritional products, Qi Xing felt a headache; each claimed to be the best for health, but which was truly the best?

The sales assistant saw him picking up one item after another indecisively and stepped forward, asking him who would be consuming them, recommending protein powder and walnut powder.

Thinking it over briefly, Qi Xing decided to trust the sales assistant; these two supplements are essential during their intensive training, likely effective.

He was rushing and confused, considering expensive ones, money was tight; cheap ones, he was unsure of the quality, hence, his indecisiveness.
