Chapter 27: A Stroll Under the Moonlight (2)

  "...the man was so excited to hear the message that he almost cried, having sent so many messages, this is the first time the woman has replied! He opened it with excitement and became even more excited, spending the entire afternoon anxiously staring at his phone thinking, finally at 5 pm, the man carefully replied: "Want!"

  Gong Qian didn't take the bait, so Gao Xiang had to force himself to finish telling the joke. Gong Qian blinked her eyes, hinting at Gao Xiang, "Finished?" Seeing that Gao Xiang wasn't speaking anymore, she thought for a moment before realizing where the humor was in this joke. "You're done for, you've definitely lost this bet!" Gao Xiang is just a perverted nerd...telling such an off-color joke to a girl on their first date? And he's supposed to have high emotional intelligence?

  After walking a few more steps, Gong Qian turned her head and said helplessly to Gao Xiang: "Forget it...Gao Xiang, you really don't have the talent for humor, so just focus on being a good police officer, this job has a great future. Hey, I'm asking you, how old are you anyway? You always call yourself 'ge ge' (older brother), but to me, you look like a little kid."

  "This shows that Ge is well taken care of, after the new year Ge will be 26, what about you?" Gao Xiang is shameless and has no conscience at all.

  "Oh my, I'm only 24, so you can really be considered an older brother. Do you want me to call you Brother Xiang from now on?"

  "Can't we just forget about Xiang?"

  Gong Qian was secretly delighted, and then asked about his brother. No matter how she looked at him, he seemed like a newcomer, just like a little chick that had just hatched from its eggshell. Afraid that Gao Xiang would tell her another not-so-funny joke, Gong Qian quickly changed the subject to their age, and the two of them started chatting casually, as if they were taking a stroll.

  "Let me introduce myself, I graduated from Northwest University of Political Science and Law. My mom wanted me to take the Shanghai court or procuratorate exam, but I didn't want to. You know why? I just like this police uniform, it's so cool to uphold justice and righteousness! I insisted on my own way, and that's how I ended up here. And you, Gao Xiang?"

  "I'm a product of the destruction of the reform and opening-up, a defective product from the education assembly line. I didn't even finish two years in high school before being persuaded to drop out by the school. Later, I joined the army for almost four years. You know this, don't you?" Gao Xiang scratched the back of his head, somewhat embarrassed and self-deprecating.

  "You always say you were a soldier, come on and tell me, what kind of soldier were you?" As soon as the topic turned to being a soldier, Gong Qian's eyes lit up, seeming extremely interested.

  "I'm an infantryman from the 149th Division of the Southwest Military Region, do you know about the 149th Division? It's the unit that fought against the elite 316A Division of Vietnam in the Self-Defense and Counterattack War... Our division is a rapid response division, my old unit number was 77156, our combat direction was the Snowy Plateau, I once participated in the High-altitude Special Training Team and studied in Tibet!"

  The two of them chatted and laughed, their conversation becoming more and more in-depth; Gong Qian was extremely interested in Gao Xiang's military life, and she asked him questions all along the way. Gao Xiang also asked a few questions about Gong Qian's family situation, and found that whenever Gong Qian mentioned her family, she seemed to be evasive with her words. Connecting this with the rumors circulating within the special recruitment class, he became even more convinced that Gong Qian's family background was definitely not simple. What was rare was that Gao Xiang didn't detect any hint of disdain towards himself or contempt for soldiers from Gong Qian's tone; on the contrary, she seemed to be yearning for life in the military.

  "Haha, really interesting, your biggest hobby is to sneak a peek at the female soldiers' nighttime activities? They're all outdoors, some playing ball, others reading books, and they're all dressed up properly, what can you see?" Gong Qian blinked her eyes and said with a mischievous smile.

  "Cough cough... What else do you want to see, it's all a man's world. Being able to see something different is happiness, you'll understand once you experience it personally." Gao Xiang replied in a flustered tone.

  "Haha, it's so interesting! Alright, lastly, Brother Gao Xiang, I have a small request, I don't know if you can satisfy me or not?" Gong Qian suddenly looked at Gao Xiang with a hopeful face.

  "Huh?"

  This sudden situation made Gao Xiang feel like his brain was already overloaded, what request! Under the cover of night, they couldn't see each other's expressions, but Gong Qian's gentle and soft words still startled Gao Xiang. He looked around nervously, making sure they were in a secluded spot before lowering his voice to ask: "What?" His mind had already started racing with wild thoughts... Wow! Was it going to be a warm hug? Or a sweet kiss? I'm willing, I'm willing to do anything!

  A dark shadow suddenly approached, a wave of fragrance drilled straight into his nose, and Gao Xiang felt a rush of heat to his head, no, it was actually lust that had taken over his brain...

  Gong Qian seemed to have not noticed Gao Xiang's abnormality at all, and murmured: "You honestly answer me, do you have a girlfriend?"

  Nothing

  Having heard Gao Xiang's response, Gong Qian covered her mouth and ran away laughing, leaving Gao Xiang standing there looking foolish, feeling itchy in his heart and unable to add anything.

  Half an hour later, in the girls' dormitory, a group of girls were chattering around Gong Qian.

  "Monitor, how's it going? Have you figured everything out?"

  "Boss, boss, how is it? Is he really a master or not?"

  "Needless to say, the class leader took matters into his own hands, and under the light of the moon, with all the passion and romance, it was a fierce and intense situation that no one could withstand. That little rascal Gao Xiang completely lost control."

  "Ah, boss, tell me, when we reached that secluded spot, didn't you let this guy take advantage of her, treating her roughly without any care or tenderness? In the quiet forest, only a low **sound remained..."

  Several girls laughed and asked, teasing Gong Qian in every possible way. Gong Qian smiled along with the jokesters and pinched each of them one by one. However, when they sat down, she said disdainfully:

  "Do you still need to doubt? I don't even need to bat my eyelashes, he's already spilled everything... Ye Dui, Wang Min, the two of you have lost, this month and next month I won't have to wash my own clothes, great!"

  "What! No way, no way, how can this be so wrong! He's really a rookie who doesn't understand anything!" Wang Min questioned Gong Qian in an octave-higher tone.

  Gong Qian smiled and said: "He really is, definitely not a veteran of the love scene. And in the end, I even asked him out, he doesn't have a girlfriend. Right, if you don't believe me, ask Tian Miao Miao, she came with Gao Xiang."

  In the dormitory, Tian Miao Miao could only smile bitterly and helplessly. How did this matter get me involved? Someone's family has already started taking action, Zhang Tong, when you wake up, the dishes are already cooked.

  Tian Miao Miao gave Kong Qian a glance and said: "When I arrived at the police station, he was already there. I'm not clear about what happened before, but later on, it seemed like he had a good impression of Zhang Tong..." Ah, that's all I can do for you, Tian Miao Miao thought to herself.

  "Cut it out, that's just an eight-character idiom without a single stroke. How could Su's family background possibly be resolved? I think this is actually pretty good. Now we're all wearing police uniforms, didn't Gao Xiang say that internal digestion is called 'fatty water not flowing to outsiders' fields'?"

  "Hey, Ye Dajie, how did you know that Gao Xiang is definitely a treasure and will definitely flow into your 'field'... didn't you secretly taste it? Haha..." Wang Min hadn't finished speaking when she was already laughing so hard she was about to fall over. Ye rushed up to her, blushing, trying to take off her clothes, while Gong Qian and Tian Miao were also laughing uncontrollably.

  Suddenly, a piece of darkness, the school is broken, there are many farting things, and the lights are turned off 2 minutes ahead of schedule! In the dark, Wang Min hurried back to the next room. The four people in the dormitory didn't sleep. Su Su on the lower bunk heard GONG Qian turning over on the upper bunk and asked softly:

  "Boss, have you slept?"

  "Not yet, can't sleep. Why does it feel so hot tonight..."

  After a while, Su Susu asked in a barely audible voice:

  "I also can't sleep, boss, have you ever been in love?"

  "How did you think of asking this?" Gong Qian asked with a hint of unease.

  "I... I just wanted to ask, what's it like being with a man?" Su Su asked in a voice barely louder than a mosquito, but the quiet dormitory still heard her clearly.

  "Uh... how would I know? I've never been in a relationship before..." Gong Qian self-deprecatingly smiled wryly.

  Hehe, two bursts of laughter, Tian Miao and Ye Dui both laughed out loud, it turned out they were both still awake.

  "Ah, I'm burning all over too... Class Monitor, you're not still a virgin, are you?"

  Gong Qianqi threw over a pillow: "What's it to you!"

  "I see, I see, a woman who has been handled by men" Yeh's smile became even more uncontrollable...

  "Tian Miao Miao, Su Su you two hold her down, I'll deal with her right now!" Angrily, Gong Qian jumped out of bed and climbed onto Ye Dui's bed to tidy her up. The two of them laughed so hard that they rolled around wildly under the covers, causing the double-decker bed to creak loudly.

  "You two rascals, be gentle, don't corrupt SuSu." Tian MiaoMiao also laughed and hid aside to watch the show. A pillow flew over and Tian MiaoMiao caught it in her arms, lying on the bed and asking SuSu: "SuSu, have you been handled? Hehe..."

  Su Su's face turned red like a shrimp, and in anger she fell onto the bed of rice seedlings and rolled around with her.

  After making a fuss for a while, they all got tired and the dormitory gradually returned to calmness. In the quiet night, Gong Qian couldn't sleep. She had made a bet with Ye and came up with this idea, but after teasing Gao Xiang in a playful way, she found out that he was actually quite genuine and natural. The fake play seemed so real, it seemed like having him as a boyfriend wouldn't be bad at all...

  "Wooo... wooo... wooo... wooo..... wooo..... wooo... wooo.. wooo.." For half a year after Gao Xiang retired from the army, he would wake up on time every morning, with a faint reveille sound in his ears. This had once left him very confused, wondering if there was something wrong with his hearing.

  The wake-up call of the armed police training base rings in his ears, and every day, Gao Xiang opens his eyes on time, listens carefully to the wake-up call, then rolls over from the upper bunk and lands on the ground, quickly tidying up his internal affairs.
