"You can sleep for another hour.”
Gong Li looked at the sky and estimated.
Chen Ming shrugged.
"If you really want to be a soldier, why are you lying in bed every day?
After all this, even if I go back to the dormitory, I won't be able to sleep.”
"Platoon leader, you said it just now. There's still more than an hour before the morning exercise.”
Gong Li looked at Chen Ming in surprise.
He didn't expect this kid to be so self-aware.
Chen Ming said as he walked to Gong Li's side.
The soldiers in disheveled clothes were running in circles.
Chen Ming took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed one to Gong Li.
Gong Li saw that Chen Ming was holding a cigarette.
It was a high-end model with a filter.
After a moment of hesitation, she accepted the cigarette that Chen Ming handed her.
He said in a low voice.
"Don't smoke here. Go further away.
If the instructor and company commander see us, we won't have a good ending.”
The sky was still extremely dark.
There was a faint moon hanging in the sky.
It was rare to see a few stars.
The two of them soon arrived at a remote place.
He squatted down and started smoking.
In the pitch-black night sky.
As soon as Gong Li picked up the cigarette, Chen Ming immediately took out a lighter and lit it for Gong Li.
He lit up the cigarette and lit it up.
Gong Li also saw the high-end lighter in Chen Ming's hand.
His gaze was a little strange.
He took a deep puff of his cigarette and blew out a ring of smoke.
Gong Li asked.
"Kid, your family is quite rich. Why did you come here to be a soldier and suffer?”
"For the sake of my dream of becoming a soldier.”
Chen Ming's tone carried a hint of yearning.
Gong Li did not doubt Chen Ming's words. If it wasn't for his obsession, he would never have thought that a rich young master like Chen Ming would give up on a life of luxury.
He came to the army to eat plain soup.
Just like what Gao Minghui had said.
Most of the people who came to join the army were rural children.
Many people were full and hungry at home.
At the very least, they would be able to eat their fill every meal in the army, and they would even get an allowance.
"Tonight, you performed the best.
How did you know to dress neatly and pack your backpack during an emergency gathering?
He could even do all this in the dark?”
After gaining a better understanding of Chen Ming, he finally understood the situation.
Gong Li's prejudice towards Chen Ming had lessened by quite a bit. He asked curiously.
Although the performance of this batch of recruits was indeed quite poor.
But he wasn't any better back then.
Therefore, to be honest, he was very impressed with Chen Ming's performance today.
"Didn't I want to be a soldier for a long time?
Therefore, when he was at home, he consulted the veterans on the streets.
It was a rule in the military camp.
He had also practiced at home.
However, he was still quite happy to be able to do it well today.”
Chen Ming said with a smile.
The system's reward was definitely something that could not be said.
It was impossible for anyone to verify Chen Ming's explanation.
And with this reason, even if his performance was too outstanding, there would be an explanation.
Hearing Chen Ming's words, Gong Li looked at Chen Ming even more highly.
He knew that what this rich young master had said just now was not empty talk.
He had indeed made some preparations before coming.
Most importantly, before he came, he had already understood how tough the military camp was, but he still came without hesitation.
No wonder he could easily finish ten kilometers on his first day here.
"Hmm, you're not bad…"
Gong Li was just about to praise Chen Ming when he remembered his family background.
She swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
"Platoon leader, don't just talk about me. Let's talk about you.
Platoon leader, which military school did you graduate from?”
Chen Ming could tell that Gong Li had something to say, so he quickly changed the topic.
"I graduated from the Army Command College and have only been in the army for a few years!”
Gong Li didn't continue to praise Chen Ming and answered casually.
"Platoon leader, do you have a girlfriend? Are you married?"
Chen Ming asked a few more basic questions.
Gong Li replied.
As the saying goes, smoking, drinking, and fighting were the best ways for men to improve their relationship.
The two of them chatted as they smoked.
Their relationship instantly became much closer.
Gong Li's prejudice against Chen Ming gradually disappeared.
Chen Ming was a handsome young man.
His family was rich.
The key was that he had a good personality, knew how to stir up trouble, and knew how to talk.
He still had dreams and was willing to work hard.
It was no wonder that the girl cherished him so much.
They chatted for a while.
Gong Li suddenly fell silent.
Chen Ming did not rush him.
He took a puff of his cigarette.
"Chen Ming…"
He hesitated for a moment.
The platoon leader finally spoke.
"Here!"
Chen Ming subconsciously shouted,
"To be honest, when I got on the train that day, I read your information.
In addition to what happened in the armed forces department, I have some opinions about you.
Tell me, what do you think about your ancestors?”
Gong Li had always thought that this was an insurmountable hurdle.
He couldn't help but ask a few times during the chat just now. Now that he finally asked, his heart finally relaxed a lot.
"That was in my previous life.
Everyone knew about the situation in that era.
Of course, what they did was definitely wrong.
Now that he had suffered retribution, there was nothing to say.”
Chen Ming answered frankly.
Gong Li saw that Chen Ming didn't avoid the question and could tell right from wrong.
She immediately had a better impression of him.
"However, with your special background, it's still a little difficult for you to achieve anything in the army. You have to be mentally prepared.”
Gong Li remembered that Chen Ming had asked the instructor how to get a first-class merit on the first day he joined the army, so he gave Chen Ming a heads-up.
"Yes."
Chen Ming nodded.
"No matter how hard it is, I will persevere. For my dream, what's this little difficulty?”
Gong Li patted Chen Ming's shoulder.
The two of them chatted for a while.
The sky gradually brightened.
The recruits in the distance had almost finished running.
Gong Li stood up and stretched.
"Chen Ming, you should also quickly gather.”
Chen Ming stood up.
He stuffed the unfinished pack of cigarettes into Gong Li's pocket.
He said with a smile.
"Platoon leader, this is a small token of my appreciation."
Gong Li smiled and didn't refuse.
"If you encounter any difficulties during training, let me know.”
Before Chen Ming left, Gong Li patted his shoulder and said,"
Chen Ming smiled and nodded.
The friendship between the two men was thus forged.
