Zhuang Yan would be lying if he said he wasn't scared at all after seeing Chu Xiao again, especially after badmouthing him just now.
When he saw Chu Xiao, Zhuang Yan felt that he was hallucinating.
Chu Xiao was still the Chu Xiao in his impression.
He was fair and clean, and his actions were refined. If one only looked at his appearance, one would really think that Chu Xiao was an extremely good-looking literary cadre.
But if one were to come into contact with Chu Xiao, anyone would discover that Chu Xiao's appearance was definitely an illusion.
It was as if there was a terrifying beast hidden under this handsome face.
"Have you thought it through?"
Chu Xiao smiled at Zhuang Yan, who was in a daze.
Hearing Chu Xiao's words, Zhuang Yan seemed to have reacted. He quickly shook his head and secretly cheered himself up.
"Zhuang Yan, Zhuang Yan, where did your usual ability go? How could she be afraid of a pretty boy? Be brave, be brave!”
Zhuang Yan finally spoke up after a long time.
"There's nothing to think about. I don't think I did anything wrong. He hit me first.”
Chu Xiao looked at Zhuang Yan as if he was a child and smiled.
"I've let you have so much peace and quiet for so many days, and this is all you can think of? Do you know what a soldier is?"
Chu Xiao's question stumped Zhuang Yan. In Zhuang Yan's impression, his understanding of soldiers did not seem to have an accurate explanation at all.
Chu Xiao continued: " Remember, obeying orders is the nature of a soldier. Can you learn it?"”
Obey orders?
The nature of a soldier?
These two simple sentences had never appeared in Zhuang Yan's mind before.
Furthermore, based on Zhuang Yan's current understanding of the army and soldiers, he did not seem to understand the meaning of these two sentences. What exactly did they mean?
"If I can't learn it, why should I learn it now?" Zhuang Yan sighed. I'm not a soldier anymore anyway.”
"Who told you that you're no longer a soldier?" Chu Xiao smiled and waved his hand.”
"I hit the class monitor and didn't listen to orders. Do you still want me?" Zhuang Yan said.”
"Okay, then I'll change the question. Do you want to be a soldier?" Chu Xiao smiled.”
Zhuang Yan pondered for a moment before saying,"Yes, but I don't want to. Actually, I quite like being with my brothers, but I feel that the environment in the army is too oppressive to my nature. I can't stand it.”
Chu Xiao smiled and shook his head." I actually quite admired you for daring to hit the class monitor before. But now that I've heard what you said, I think I've overestimated you."”
"What do you mean?" Zhuang Yan asked, puzzled.”
Chu Xiao continued," A man, no matter what environment or problem he faces, the first thing he thinks of should be how to solve and deal with it, not how to escape. In my eyes, I usually call those who choose to escape cowards."”
Coward?
When Zhuang Yan heard Chu Xiao's words, he felt that his sensitive nerves seemed to have been stimulated all of a sudden. It was almost like a conditioned reflex.
"I'm not a coward!"
Chu Xiao smiled." Since you're not, then prove it to me. If you're really capable, then you'll be a soldier for me. Be a good soldier for me."”
Zhuang Yan was amused by Chu Xiao's words. He smiled and said,""Who do you think you are? Can you change the guild's decision?"
In Zhuang Yan's opinion, the things he had done were already a huge mess. It was a certainty that he would be sent back by the army.
Although Chu Xiao was a company commander, could this change the decision of the regiment?
Moreover, Chu Xiao was only a deputy.
Most importantly, based on age, Chu Xiao really wasn't much older than Zhuang Yan.
Zhuang Yan could not believe it, nor could he believe that Chu Xiao could have such power!
But what Zhuang Yan didn't expect was that after Chu Xiao heard his words, he only smiled faintly.
Then, Chu Xiao actually changed his usual attitude and said.
"Zhuang Yan, the army is the world of tough men. If you want to be a coward, no one will think highly of you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiao turned around and left.
As for Zhuang Yan, after seeing Chu Xiao leave, his heart was filled with complicated emotions.
However, what she was thinking was not whether Chu Xiao could change the group's decision.
Instead, he wondered why the gap between him and Chu Xiao was so huge.
There was no need to mention his skills.
More importantly, his thoughts!
Zhuang Yan felt that in front of Chu Xiao, he really seemed like a child who had not grown up.
Whether it was the world in his eyes or the world in his heart, it was not even one-thousandth of Chu Xiao's.
The more he thought about it, the more curious Zhuang Yan became about Chu Xiao.
They even began to guess what kind of person Chu Xiao was. What kind of background did he have? What kind of experience did he have?
What was the reason for the huge gap between Zhuang Yan and Chu Xiao?
"Hey, brother, you're really lucky. From what Commander Chu means, he wants to protect you.”
Zhuang Yan, who had yet to figure it out, suddenly heard the sentinel guarding him say this. He asked with a puzzled expression.
"What do you mean? Do you really believe that a young acting company commander like him can change the decision of the regiment?”
When the sentry heard this, he actually said to Zhuang Yan in a disappointed tone.
"Aiya, brother, you're really something. Do you really not know what kind of background Commander Chu has?”
"What background?" Zhuang Yan asked, confused. Could it be that he really had three heads and six arms? I saw it just now. Isn't there nothing here?”
When the sentry heard Zhuang Yan's words, he was so angry that he laughed.
"Aiya, I say, you're really stupid. But it's not strange that you don't know. In our entire regiment, there are probably only a few who know about Company Commander Chu's background.”
The more the sentry said this, the more curious Zhuang Yan became.
"Can you finish your sentence in one go? Don't keep me in suspense. What is Company Commander Chu's background?”
The sentry looked left and right, then pretended to be mysterious.
"Actually, I'm not very sure about the details, but I heard that Commander Chu is the son of a high-ranking official. If he wants to protect you, then he can definitely protect you!”
When Zhuang Yan heard the sentry's words, he was so angry that he almost cursed!
After all this time, it was as if he had said nothing.
Zhuang Yan was too lazy to bother with the sentry and continued doing push-ups.
But then, something even more unexpected happened.
After Chu Xiao talked to him.
That afternoon, Zhuang Yan was released from the detention room.
Moreover, he did not receive any punishment or notice.
He was even allowed to return to the recruit company and participate in the daily training.
It was as if he had never hit the class monitor.
