After arriving at the headquarters, Li Qiufan was taken directly to the headquarters by his boss and got to know the commanders of the units under the Northwest Field Corps.
It was evening soon, and for the first time, the boss wanted to give Li Qiufan a break. This really made Li Qiufan feel flattered.
In fact, this meal is not just for catching up with each other, but mainly for everyone to enhance their relationship. After all, they will all be fighting side by side in the same trench from now on.
The dinner went very happily, and Li Qiufan also had the braised pork that he had been craving for. While eating, he sighed that Lao Wang's cooking skills were still as good as before.
After the meal, everyone did not stay much longer and returned to their stations one after another.
Li Qiufan was retained by his boss, and he happened to have something to talk to.
"You kid also have something to say to me, right? Stop jumping around and just say what you have to say!"
In the headquarters, as soon as the two of them sat down, the boss said to Li Qiufan, directly revealing his thoughts.
"I really can't hide anything from you, old man!"
Li Qiufan smiled and said to the boss. Unexpectedly, the boss had already seen what he was thinking.
"How can I still understand your stubbornness? If you have anything to say, just say it. There are no outsiders here!"
The boss gave Li Qiufan a disgusted look, and then asked him to speak directly.
"Then I'll get it straight. I just have a question for you, boss. Why did you order my general?"
Li Qiufan directly expressed the questions in his heart. There was no need for him to beat around the bush when talking to the boss.
"That's it?"
The boss thought that Li Qiufan had something important to tell him, so he asked this question unexpectedly.
"Yeah, that's it."
Li Qiufan nodded and said to the boss.
"I'm going to give you my thumbs up. I just want to find something for you to do. I'm afraid that you, a brat, might cause some big trouble if you have nothing to do!"
The boss made a joke with Li Qiufan, but Li Qiufan heard something else from the boss's words, which confirmed his guess.
"Boss, thank you!"
Li Qiufan thanked the boss seriously. He knew that the boss was really good for him.
"Stop talking about this, let's talk about the next arrangements for your column!"
The boss waved his hand towards Li Qiufan. He did not want to discuss this matter with Li Qiufan too much.
"What arrangement?"
Li Qiufan also understood what his boss meant, and immediately changed the subject and asked about his arrangements.
"This column of yours can now be said to be the guarantee of our Northwest Field Corps. I am ready to stay by my side to respond to various situations at any time. What do you think?"
The boss directly expressed his thoughts, which was to keep Li Qiufan by his side, just like he did at the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
"I have no opinion!"
Li Qiufan understood that his boss valued him. Staying here at the headquarters was nothing more than losing his independence, but with the current configuration of his army, he did not lack weapons and equipment.
"That's fine if you don't have any objection. I'm worried that your boy might disagree. After all, this means less opportunities to go out and enjoy the autumn breeze.
The boss nodded with satisfaction, and he was even more pleased with Li Qiufan's performance.
"My army is lacking nothing now, so those opportunities should be given to other troops. At worst, I will ask you for it when the time comes. Your boss won't refuse, right?"
The first two sentences Li Qiufan said made the boss nod his head, but the last two sentences made the boss's face darken.
After all, whenever he opens his mouth, it's not an ordinary thing, it's something like heavy artillery shells.
"Get out of here! I really owed you something in my previous life!"
The boss slapped the table angrily and roared at Li Qiufan. He didn't expect this kid to have such an idea.
Li Qiufan ran away amidst the roar of his boss. Looking at Li Qiufan's leaving figure, the boss's mouth slightly curled up and he smiled happily.
The next day, since he had just arrived and had no place to live, Li Qiufan slept directly at the headquarters without going back.
Li Qiufan fell asleep early in the morning, washed briefly and then found the cooking team.
At this time, Lao Wang was busy cooking and did not notice Li Qiufan's arrival.
"Ahem, Lao Wang, your braised pork last night was too salty!"
Li Qiufan appeared behind Lao Wang, coughed twice and said to Lao Wang.
"Fart! I never cook... Commander Li?"
Lao Wang suddenly heard someone saying that his cooking was salty, and he immediately started spitting out the fragrance, but when he turned around and saw the person, he was stunned.
"Haha, Lao Wang, you are so brave, you even dare to scold the column commander!"
Li Qiufan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said to Lao Wang playfully.
"I didn't know it was you. Commander Li, you are deliberately trying to mess with me!"
The boss knew that Li Qiufan was joking with him, but it still frightened him. After all, scolding a column commander in front of him was not a small matter.
"Okay, I'm just kidding you. Come out on time for dinner, I'm almost starving to death!"
Li Qiufan smiled and patted Lao Wang on the shoulder, then sat directly on a stone next to him.
"Hey, Commander Li, you'll be waiting a moment. I have sweet potatoes steaming in the pot. I'll get you some hot ones later!"
The old man smiled at Li Qiufan. He knew that Li Qiufan had no airs, and the two of them often joked around before.
Soon the old Dynasty prepared the meal, and in addition to the sweet potatoes, he also brought some pickles to Li Qiufan.
When Li Qiufan was enjoying his meal, the boss happened to get up early and walked over to the cooking class. He immediately saw Li Qiufan eating sweet potatoes and pickles.
"I said, what's the matter with you kid? You have to wait for a few days when you come back to my place. Why don't you pay me for food and you just eat?"
The boss saw Li Qiufan beside him, raised his leg and kicked Li Qiufan and said.
"Come here, boss. The sweet potatoes steamed by Lao Wang are so sweet!"
Li Qiufan didn't care about the boss's words and directly raised his hand and handed over a sweet potato.
"Get out of the way, the place where people are sitting is not small!"
The boss took the sweet potato and took a bite. As he spoke, he asked Li Qiufan to make room for him and sit down.
"I said, boss, you are a bandit. You can't just take food, but you have to occupy all the nests for me!"
Li Qiufan moved his butt to make way for the boss, but he made a joke about the boss.
"Bandit? Which one of us is the bandit?"
Hearing Li Qiufan say that he was a bandit boss, he was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled and said to Li Qiufan.
"Uh, okay I'm a bandit."
Li Qiufan was stunned when he heard the boss's words, as if he was a serious bandit.
"Hahaha, you don't get hungry very often!"
The boss pointed at Li Qiufan and laughed heartily. Unexpectedly, this brat dug a hole for himself.
