When Shen Xue heard Chen Ming's words, her pretty face turned red and her heart thumped wildly.
She grabbed the braids hanging in front of her chest with both hands and whispered," Brother Ming, this is the first time we've met. Isn't it too early to be a boyfriend and girlfriend?”
"There's no such thing as early or late in love. I fell in love with you at first sight and I want you to be my girlfriend now!”Chen Ming stared at Shen Xue's limpid eyes and pretended to be affectionate.
Shen Xue had never been in a relationship before. In this era, there were no soap operas to brainwash her, so she was ignorant about relationships. The only literature that she had come into contact with about relationships between men and women was Li Shangyin's sad love poems.
Therefore, when she heard Chen Ming's sweet words, she was like a panicked rabbit. Her face was so red that it was about to bleed. Her hands loosened and tightened, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Chen Ming directly.
Seeing Shen Xue so shy, Chen Ming found it funny and felt a little tender for her.
In the world 30 years later, there were no more innocent girls like Shen Xue.
No matter what, he had to grasp it.
"If you don't give me an answer today, I won't leave!”Chen Ming said shamelessly.
Faced with Chen Ming's somewhat sincere and somewhat shameless emotional attacks, the innocent Shen Xue naturally could not withstand it.
"Then I…I'm willing to be your girlfriend!”Snowy said softly.
If Chen Ming didn't have good hearing, he wouldn't have heard Snowy's reply.
"Alright, then I'll go back first. I'll come and see you another day!”Chen Ming smiled and waved at Shen Xue before turning to leave.
It was already his limit to make Shen Xue agree to be his girlfriend. If he continued to push his luck, it might backfire.
Therefore, it was best to stop after achieving his goal and then take it step by step in the future to improve their relationship.
Shen Xue raised her eyes and looked at Chen Ming's back as he disappeared into the distance. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
At nine o'clock at night.
Chen Ming, who had been busy for the whole day, lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
"No cell phone, no internet, no computer, no games. It's really hard at night!”Chen Ming stared at the ceiling and muttered to himself.
Young people in the 21st century had never heard of anyone sleeping at nine o'clock.
Chen Ming really wanted to have a phone now so that he could use all kinds of emojis to flirt with Shen Xue.
"It seems that I have to find time to get a radio or a black-and-white television. At least I have something that can pass time. Otherwise, I can only swat mosquitoes!”Chen Ming pondered silently.
Just then, a female mosquito buzzed and flew in front of Chen Ming.
"Watch the fight!"
Pa!
Chen Ming killed the mosquito with a slap and felt a small sense of accomplishment.
Pa!
Pa!
……
After swatting mosquitoes for nearly an hour, he finally felt sleepy. He spread his hands and fell asleep.
Shen Xue was also having trouble sleeping tonight.
In the spacious and simple room, the cold moonlight shone on the bed by the window.
The girl was lying on her side in a thin shirt. Her legs were slightly curled up. She opened her eyes and was a little lost in thought. She recalled the conversation with Chen Ming not long ago and a sweet smile hung on the corner of her mouth.
When she thought of Chen Ming's words of love, she covered her face with her hands shyly and tossed and turned on the bed.
A young girl who had just been nourished by love was like a child who had been rewarded with a large fried dough candy. The sweetness seeped into her heart, making her unable to extricate herself.
For some reason, Shen Xue hoped that Chen Ming would come to visit her sooner.
Two days later.
After handing over all the work on hand to others, Chen Ming went to the commander's office.
"Report!"
Chen Ming saluted Qin Songlong, who was writing at the table.
"Chen Ming, you're here. Have you handed over your work?”Qin Songlong looked at Chen Ming with a deep smile.
"Commander, the handover is done!" Chen Ming replied.
"Alright, from today onwards, you will officially be the commander of the special forces. You will be directly under the command. Other than me, no one is allowed to transfer you!”Qin Songlong said with a serious face," In addition, you are the only commander of the special forces now. It is the time when we are most lacking people. As the trump card of the special forces, I allow you to select the best soldiers from the various units. As for the military officers below the battalion level, you can also choose a few of them to be your assistants.
"If you encounter any resistance during the selection process, just say my name!”
"This is the information of the top soldiers and officers below battalion level in the entire military region. Take a look first!”Qin Songlong handed a thick stack of documents to Chen Ming.
Chen Ming took it and smiled.
Directly under the command, the entire military region could choose people at will, and they could even choose officers. It was simply like the ancient imperial envoys who acted first and reported later, with the imperial power granting special permission.
One word, awesome!
"The area designated for the special forces has been prepared. I'll bring you there!”Qin Songlong said.
"Yes, sir!" Chen Ming nodded.
The two of them left the office together and got into a military vehicle. After driving for nearly an hour, they stopped in a basin near the mountain.
The basin was surrounded by a wire fence that was two meters tall.
Inside, there were several brand-new red brick buildings. In front of one of the buildings, there were three brand-new jeeps.
In this area, there was also a training ground covered in gravel.
On the training ground, there were horizontal bars, double bars, wooden stakes, high-altitude grab bars, 400-meter obstacle course, and other facilities.
After looking around, the two of them entered a red brick building.
This building was Chen Ming's exclusive office and lounge. It was equipped with office chairs, furniture, a radio, and a big black and white television.
Chen Ming's eyes lit up when he saw electronic products.
He walked to the radio and turned it on. The speaker immediately started to rustle.
After changing the channel a few times, a clear voice finally came out of the speaker.
" Sweet honey, your smile is so sweet, like a flower blooming in the spring breeze…"
Chen Ming immediately turned off the power when he heard the classic song.
He really couldn't appreciate this kind of song.
Then, he strolled to the television and pressed the power button. The screen immediately showed a rustling snowflake image.
After switching to a few channels, there was finally a channel that was no longer snowing. It was playing a movie from Hong Kong, Mr. Zombie.
Although the picture quality was blurry and it was in black and white, Chen Ming still enjoyed watching it.
Zombie movies like this were still popular even after 20 to 30 years. They were considered classics among classics.
Seeing Chen Ming staring at the television, Qin Songlong smiled and said," Chen Ming, how is it? Are you satisfied with everything?”
"Very satisfied!" Chen Ming smiled and turned off the television.
"As long as you're satisfied. Then let's go back first. There's something more important!”Qin Songlong pretended to be mysterious.
When Chen Ming heard that, he was immediately curious.
What was the commander trying to do?
Then, the two of them drove back to Qin Songlong's commander's office.
Qin Songlong took out a green box from the drawer.
Chen Ming took a look and immediately understood.
Qin Songlong opened the box, and two three-star epaulets lay quietly inside.
It was the symbol of a colonel.
"Congratulations, Chen Ming, you've been promoted!”
Qin Songlong smiled amiably and walked in front of Chen Ming. He personally helped Chen Ming take off the two bars and two stars epaulets on his shoulders and put on the two three-star epaulets.
From this moment on, Chen Ming was no longer a lieutenant colonel, but a dignified colonel.
"Chen Ming, the South China Sword is our top priority. It will serve as a role model for the future establishment of special forces in the military region. I hope you can truly create an elite force that is like a sharp sword that pierces the enemy's heart!”Qin Songlong spoke earnestly, his words filled with anticipation.
Chen Ming saluted with a solemn expression.""I will not fail my mission!"
