My Little Poplar - Chap 35
Early the next morning, Bai Xinyu and Cheng Wangwang meet downstairs, Chen Jing and Yu Fengcheng are already standing at the door and the military pickup is waiting for them.
Yu Fengcheng looked on from afar, smirking, with a smug look on his face.
Bai Xinyu glared at him and said, “Did you bring what I asked you to bring?”
Yu Fengcheng raised an eyebrow and said, “What attitude?”
Bai Xinyu immediately softened up and said, “Brother, can you give me my phone back for now, if there’s a signal in town, I can send a picture to my mother too.”
Yu Fengcheng took his fruit machine out of his pocket and tossed it to him, “For now, give it back to me when you’re done.”
Bai Xinyu gritted his teeth and said, “This is my phone, right?”
Yu Fengcheng laughed and said: “No one said it wasn’t.”
Bai Xinyu glared at him, quickly slipped his phone into his pocket, ran over to Chen Jing and said, “Sergeant, I didn’t expect you to be there, what a coincidence.”
“Well, there’s a lot of people in the class with birthdays, I thought I’d go and get a proper cake and presents or something.”
Bai Xinyu looked at Yu Fengcheng for a second and said, “You… What are you taking him for?”
Chen Jing was unsure about this, “Fengcheng suggested it, otherwise I wouldn’t have known you were going to town, the army couldn’t have sent a separate car for us to go shopping for birthday presents, we just hitchhiked.”
Yu Fengcheng smiled and said: “Xinyu told me.”
Bai Xinyu wanted to slap herself twice, you talk too much! You talk too much!
Cheng Wangwang said with a big smile: “Third sergeant, what goodies are you going to buy.”
Chen Jing said: “Come on, get in the car.”
The four of them got in the car and the pickup truck drove out of the camp.
Cheng Wangwang is in the front seat bragging to the driver, the other three sit in the back seat, Chen Jing is in the middle, Bai Xinyu leans back in the seat, every now and then he glared at Yu Fengcheng over the back of Chen Jing’s head, Yu Fengcheng looked at him askance and doesn’t really not really paying attention.
Chen Jing asks Bai Xinyu how he’s doing, has he trained well, Bai Xinyu chats with Chen Jing.
After the car left the camp, there was a very undulating road, Bai Xinyu asked Cheng Wangwang how long it would take to get to the town, Cheng Wangwang said with a carefree smile: “Five or six hours at most.”
“Huh? Say that again?”
Cheng Wangwang turned his head and said, “Do you know how big Xinjiang is.”
Bai Xinyu shook his head dumbly and said, “How big?”
Cheng Wangwang said with a “Tsk”, “I don’t know, it’s big anyway, our military area is far from the towns, so five or six hours isn’t really far.”
“That’s a day round trip, will you be back today?”
“So, I won’t be back tonight, I’ll stay in town, I won’t be able to sell everything in a day.”
Bai Xinyu’s eyes lit up and he said, “Wow, great, not coming back tonight.”
Chen Jing gave him a look and said, “What are you so excited about?”
