My Little Poplar - Chap 77
Yu Fengcheng asked: “What’s the situation?”
“There’s no rush, we’ll talk about it when we get off the ground. By the way, I have good news for you, as the next mission is still at the border, we are not going back to our base in Urumqi for the time being, instead we are going to the XX Regiment’s camp to stand by and wait for the special equipment needed for the next mission.” Huo Qiao finished and winked at Chen Jing.
Chen Jing said in surprise: “To… To our squadron?” His already pale face lit up even more.
Bai Xinyu and Yu Fengcheng were also overjoyed, they had been away from the XX for six months and thought they might never get the chance to go back, this was the best treat for them.
Huo Qiao said smugly: “We should have gone to a closer border camp but I see you’re homesick, let’s take you back.”
Chen Jing and Bai Xinyu said in unison: “Thank you, Lieutenant!”
Huo Qiao winked and said, “Touched.”
Chen Jing smiled and said: “Touched.”
Huo Qiao patted him on the head and said, “You guys, remember to think of me when you call me names behind my back.”
Everyone laughed.
Chen Jing blushed slightly and said, “Lieutenant, I didn’t name you.”
Huo Qiao pinches Chen Jing’s face and said with laughter: “Well, we’re the best Little Sergeant.”
Yu Fengcheng looked up at Huo Qiao and smiles: “Lieutenant, thank you.”
Huo Qiao rubbed his hair, a hint of elderly affection flashes across his face.
Bai Xinyu looked at the understanding and closeness between the two men, he felt more and more uncomfortable, he was now complaining about Yan Shaozhen, if Yan Shaozhen hadn’t said that, he wouldn’t be torn between Yu Fengcheng looking at his uncle, he didn’t know what he was doing. He really didn’t know what he was doing.
The transport helicopter brought them back to the XX Regiment, while still in the sky, they saw a lot of people standing on the airfield, the men quickly formed up, finally two long and one short, in a three, three squads of three platoons, that was their comrades of the three squads of the three platoons!
Bai Xinyu was excitedly grasping at the window, grabbing Chen Jing and exclaiming: “Sergeant, Sergeant, look!”
Chen Jing put his arm around Bai Xinyu’s shoulder and shook it, the familiar barracks, the playground, the warehouse, he looked at it, his eyes got warm, they were back, really back!
The plane landed, as soon as the hatch opened, Bai Xinyu jumped out, shouting: “I’m back…”
The line at the airport broke up, Feng Dongyuan and Qian Liang came running towards him from a distance, the three of them collided hard, hugging each other to death, yelling and screaming, more people rushed to lift Chen Jing up, Yu Fengcheng was also greeted with enthusiasm.
Bai Xinyu was so happy that he burst into tears and said, “Dongyuan, Qian Liang, I missed you all.” Thinking about what he had suffered in the past six months, he had a lot to say to both of them.
Feng Dongyuan choked up and said: “I thought I wouldn’t see you again for years.”
Qian Liang patted him on the head and said, “We missed you too, guess what you’re doing now, you’ve become a big shot.”
Bai Xinyu hugged the two of them tightly, crying and laughing, “I’m as good as I can be now.”
Qian Liang laughed and shouted: “Shame on you again.”
