After Shi Tiecheng returned to the base, he immediately conveyed Lin Qingqing's attitude to Luo Shaoxiong.
"She really didn't ask anything?" Luo Shaoxiong was a little surprised.
"No, as soon as I finished speaking, she nodded and said she would consider it." Asking about maple leaves shouldn't be a problem. Shi Tiecheng ignored the question after thinking about it for a moment.
Seeing the proud look on his face, Luo Shaoxiong could only temporarily suppress the doubts in his heart. Maybe he was really partying, and Lin Qingqing really trusted pure and simple people?
Upon coming out of Luo Shaoxiong's office, Shi Tiecheng met Tang Li who had been waiting at the door early.
Seeing him, Shi Tiezhi immediately patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother, I have personally handed over the things to Captain Lin, and they have never passed through the hands of another person."
"Thank you, Brother Tiecheng," Tang Li smiled slightly, and then asked a little uneasily: "Then she... I mean, did Captain Lin say anything after receiving it?"
"Huh? No."
"She didn't say anything?"
"Yeah, she opened it and took one look at it and then put it away without saying anything?"
Shi Tiecheng touched the back of his head and thought to himself: In addition to asking if the leaves of the leaves are red.
"What? She, she opened it?"
Seeing Shi Tiecheng nod, Tang Li's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
Seeing his sudden change of expression, Shi Tiecheng realized that something was wrong no matter how arrogant he was. He recalled it carefully again and found that Lin Qingqing indeed only thanked her and General Luo, but said nothing about Tang Li.
——Oops, it’s all my own fault. I was only focused on the mission assigned by the general at that time. If only he had asked one more question.
Recalling Lin Qingqing's reaction, Shi Tiecheng's face was full of embarrassment. Captain Lin's mentality must have been too stable. Those were two level five ice crystal cores. When he saw them, his eyes couldn't help but shine, but the other party only At the beginning, he showed a little bit of surprise that normal people would have.
"Um, brother, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I..."
Shi Tiecheng racked his brains to explain, but Tang Li had no intention of listening anymore.
"It's okay, this has nothing to do with you, thank you Brother Tiecheng!"
After bidding farewell to Shi Tiecheng, Tang Li slowly walked towards the dormitory alone.
He wanted to comfort himself that maybe the other party didn't think that way at all, but he overturned this idea in the next second.
——Although Lin Qingqing seems aloof, she has never made any mistakes in her behavior. He discovered this when he met General Luo for the first time at the third experimental base last time. Otherwise, General Luo would not have done it. Have such a high opinion of her. But this time she didn't even leave a word...
——She must be angry.
At this time, Tang Li's heart fell completely to the bottom. Even the two red maple trees swaying in the wind on the roadside seemed to be laughing at his recklessness and overestimation of his abilities.
At this moment, he suddenly saw a familiar and slender figure standing under a red maple tree opposite.
"Xiaoying? Why are you here?"
"Eh? Brother!" Tang Ying immediately waved to him happily when she saw him.
"We have a day off today, did you forget?"
"Then what are you doing here?"
"Pick up maple leaves!"
Tang Ying pulled Tang Li's sleeves, then pointed to the reddest maple leaves at a high place and said, "Brother, help me pick these and those few. I can't reach them."
"What are you doing picking so many leaves?"
The last thing Tang Li wanted to see now was this red tree, but he had no choice but to help Tang Ying pick it.
"Send it to your classmates!"
"classmate?"
"They are my classmates at the Xiangcheng base. Didn't I go to school there before? Lily and Nana said they had never seen red maple leaves, so I thought of sending a few to them."
"Then you don't need so many," Tang Li said helplessly as he watched her hold a large handful.
"Oh no
It's just for classmates. Tang Mingnian said he also wanted to read it and asked me to send him more..."
"Who??" When Tang Li heard this, alarm bells rang in his heart.
"Tang Mingnian, oh, by the way, when you were away, he sent me a big bag of specialties from Xiangcheng. I will pack a bag for you later..."
"No! Absolutely not! Do you know what it means to send this? You just send it to him?"
"He, he said he hadn't seen it either..."
"He used to go to Xiangshan every year. He hasn't seen it? This bastard..."
"But I agreed, and I didn't think too much..."
Seeing Tang Li's increasingly livid face, Tang Ying was immediately frightened and quickly changed her words: "I know, I know, isn't it just the red leaves that send love to me? I, I'll send him a few green ones, green ones at the main office! You Look, there are several patches of green on top!"
Although that man did have a bad mouth sometimes, he did help him a lot. He helped find many study materials. The most important thing is that he also helped his brother.
Tang Li almost laughed out of anger at her: "Okay, since he likes maple leaves so much, then send him more!"
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, climbed up the tree in a few steps, and picked off all the green leaves on it. Finally, he felt that there were not enough on the maple tree, so he also picked off the green leaves on other trees nearby. A whole lot.
Soon after, Tang Mingnian, who was far away at the Xiangcheng base, received a large package from the capital base.
When he opened the package with great expectation and saw a box of green leaves, his whole face suddenly turned green.
Sure enough, in Tang Ying's envelope, he found a note full of threatening words.
"Tang Li! You are so good!!"
Tang Mingnian gritted his teeth and threw down the note, then without saying a word, he directly used his connections to find Tang Li by borrowing the satellite phone in the base.
"How did I help you in the first place? If I hadn't worked so hard to send Captain Lin to you, how would you still be alive now?"
"One thing is another, and you don't even look at how old Xiaoying is. I'm telling you, don't have any ideas about my sister in the future!!" Tang Li said without hesitation. This bastard, a dandy by nature, Not worthy of his sister at all.
"You...I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted and sent Tang Ying to you."
"Bah! That's my sister, and I'm her legal guardian!"
"Hmph, so what? Believe it or not, I'm going to find Captain Lin to comment!"
"You! Are you still shameless? Huh? If you have the ability, go ahead. Look, Captain Lin will ignore you!"
"You! Just wait for me!"
"Just wait and wait!"
"..."
Separated by a phone line, the two brothers both had angry faces. Even the operator next to them was startled, fearing that the two of them would eat the phone.
Tang Mingnian never thought that as an elder brother, he would one day bow to Tang Li. Thinking about the past, the two of them probably had more fights than this box of leaves, and the various grievances added up were countless. countless.
"This *** brother!"
"This bastard brother!"
Thinking of the complicated relationships that were constantly being argued and messed up, the two of them immediately hung up the phone in anger.
A few days later, Tang Ying, holding a pile of food, knocked on Tang Li's door anxiously.
My brother seemed very angry about what happened that day. Although she obediently sent a box of green leaves in the end, Tang Li's mood did not seem to improve.
The door was opened from the inside, and Tang Li sighed slightly when he saw Tang Ying's cautious look.
The little girl who was only as high as his knees at first has grown into a graceful figure, and her appearance and personality have inherited the beauty and gentleness of her adoptive mother. But when he thought that a man like Tang Mingnian would be standing next to a girl in the future, Tang Li couldn't help but feel itchy fists.
"elder brother?"
"Um?"
"Don't be angry, okay?
"
"I'm not angry with you. Come in first."
Tang Li opened the door, and the girl saw that he was indeed not very angry anymore, so she happily shared the delicious food with him.
"Brother, I will graduate next year. Then I will apply for your army, okay?"
Before the apocalypse, Tang Ying was still in high school. After the apocalypse, in order to better adapt to survival, China also carried out large-scale reforms in education. For example, in order to ensure the growth of the next generation, children under the age of sixteen are not allowed to go to the battlefield unless there are special circumstances, and in addition to basic education, schools will also conduct survival courses aimed at doomsday.
There is only one school that can be attended by those above sixteen, and that is the Capital Military Academy.
The Capital Military Academy has two major majors, one is to train soldiers, and the other is to train medical staff.
Tang Ying happened to be sixteen years old when she came here. In addition, she had excellent grades and was a water power user, so she entered the Medical Department of the Capital Military Academy to study.
Due to the extreme shortage of talents, after the apocalypse, their courses were directly compressed to once a year, which lasted for two years at most. The learning content was also significantly adjusted and changed into courses more suitable for apocalyptic survival and rescue.
Tang Ying will graduate by March next year. Tang Li originally wanted to persuade her to stay in the base hospital, but the girl insisted on following him.
"That's fine," his sister followed him, and he could keep an eye on her at any time.
Tang Li thought for a while and agreed. When the time comes, the person will be under his nose to see how Tang Mingnian will try to influence her.
Seeing that Tang Li was so easy to talk to, Tang Ying became even happier and pulled him along to talk a lot.
Tang Li also smiled and listened to her talk. He was often away from the base, and Tang Ying's school only had one day off every half month. It was rare for the two of them to get together and talk for a few words.
"By the way, brother, I heard that you gave Captain Lin a gift. It was the box I put in your house that day, right? How was it? What did Captain Lin say after receiving it?" Tang Ying looked at Tang Ying with a gossipy look. calendar.
"How come you know everything?" Tang Li felt suffocated. He couldn't help but lift the pot.
"That's what Sister Lin Xiao and Brother Tiecheng said."
"..."
Well, no wonder she wanted to apply for their army, the internal staff were already thoroughly familiar with her.
"I didn't say anything, it was just a thank you gift. She just accepted it."
"No, you just sent me something? Why don't you write a letter?" Tang Ying said with a bit of hatred.
——Actually, it’s not nothing, there is a red leaf in the box...
Tang Li became very depressed when he mentioned this.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Tang Ying couldn't help but mutter: "How stupid. If this continues, when will we be able to catch up with Captain Lin?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Kids know everything. They've told you, so this is just a thank you gift."
"Hmph~ You're a bitch, you have a tough mouth, Tang Mingnian has already told me, he..." Tang Ying immediately realized something was wrong halfway through her words, so she quickly covered her mouth, but it was too late.
"Who are you talking about? Tang Mingnian? When did he tell you? Why are you still in contact with him?" As soon as he heard the word "Tang Mingnian", Tang Li couldn't help but the veins on his forehead jumped.
"That's what he wrote to me after I sent the box of green leaves last time..."
Tang Ying's voice became smaller and smaller: It's true, it's easy for people to talk but not think when they are happy. Now it's better, but my brother is angry again.
