Chapter 31: Qiu Lin Pays Homage to Her Master
"Awesome! But if you eat something, you'll be even more spirited, and wearing a flight suit will make you look even cooler!" Seeing Qiu Lin's excited face, Zhuo Yi didn't want to crush her confidence, so she went along with Qiu Lin's words and gave her a string of compliments.
Listening to Zhuo Yi's words, Qiu Lin clearly understood that Zhuo Yi didn't want to hurt her own self-esteem. She quickly took off the helmet and put it back on Lao Fei's head, stuck out her tongue at him, saluted and said: "Comrade Lao Fei, sorry!" As she spoke, Qiu Lin smiled again, with a mischievous look on her face, pulled Lao Fei to one side and whispered: "Lao Fei, if you tell me all your flying experiences, I'll give you lots of delicious food!"
Qiu Lin's words were soft, but Zhuo Yi still heard them.
Zhuo Yi couldn't help but interrupt, breaking into the two people's private conversation, and asked Qiu Lin: "Foodie sister, do you know who you're learning from?"
When Zhuo Yi called herself "Foodie Sister", Qiu Lin immediately pouted and said, "Commander Zhuo, from now on I won't call you Big Boss Zhuo anymore, and you can't call me Foodie Sister either!"
"Alright!" Zhuo Yi didn't expect Qiu Lin to have an opinion about this nickname, and couldn't help but laugh as she agreed to Qiu Lin's request. However, she still asked Qiu Lin, "Then do you know who he is?"
When asked by Zhuo Yi, Qiu Lin couldn't help but take a step back, sizing up the old pilot in front of her. After a moment's thought, she shook her head and said, "I don't know." However, she swung her hand and laughed, saying, "Who cares who he is? As long as he's willing to share his flying experience with me, that's all that matters!" With that, Qiu Lin reached out and put a hand on the old pilot's shoulder, asking him, "Right?"
Lao Fei looked at Qiu Lin's mischievous appearance and also burst out laughing, hurriedly nodding his head and saying: "Right, as long as I'm willing it's fine!"
As soon as Lao Fei responded to Qiu Lin's meaning, Zhuo Yi immediately felt a bit incredulous and asked Lao Fei: "Master, if you become her master, wouldn't that go against what you said earlier about only taking me as your sole closed-door disciple?"
Zhuo Yi's words made Qiu Lin immediately stunned. On the one hand, she quickly put her hands down from Lao Fei's shoulders, and on the other hand, she awkwardly stuck out her tongue to one side, thinking to herself how she had offended Zhuo Yi again.
But Lao Fei just smiled and said, "What's wrong with that? I'd like to take on an apprentice. And besides, after seeing your cold face all the time, it's not often that someone is willing to be my apprentice, so why wouldn't I be happy?"
Qiu Lin heard that Lao Fei was willing to accept her as his apprentice, and she couldn't help but excitedly ask Lao Fei: "Lao Fei, are you really willing to take me on as your apprentice?"
"What's with the 'Old Fei' still?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Lin hastily took a step back, pulled at the hem of her military uniform, and stood upright in front of Lao Fei with a stern expression. She saluted and said: "Master, please accept your disciple's military salute!"
"Good!" Watching Qiu Lin's generous appearance, Lao Fei also let out a loud cheer, raised his hand to return Qiu Lin's military salute, and formally accepted Qiu Lin as his apprentice. Qiu Lin put down her hand and turned around to look at Zhuo Yi, raising her hand in respect and saying: "Sister Master, please give me more guidance in the future!"
Zhuo Yi didn't dare to return Qiu Lin's military salute, instead she let out a sigh and gave Qiu Lin a white eye, saying: "Don't think that just because of this I'll give you special treatment from now on!" With that, she turned around and entered the corridor, heading towards the cafeteria downstairs.
Lao Fei smiled and said to Qiu Lin, "Don't worry, your senior sister is just a sharp-tongued but soft-hearted person, you'll get used to it!"
"Oh, I see!" Qiu Lin didn't expect that after all the fuss, she would actually acknowledge Zhuo Yi's master as her own master. She was now overjoyed.
However, when all the Fei Xiang students went down to the third-floor cafeteria, the topic of conversation among the older Fei was not Qiu Lin, but Jiang Yu Ruo, a girl who looked exactly like Zhuo Yi. Moreover, even Hao Fei, who had just accepted Qiu Lin as his apprentice, also had a special impression of Jiang Yu Ruo.
Hao Fei, while pulling on a crab leg, gazed at Jiang Yuruo sitting five tables away from him and asked Zhuoyi: "Squad Leader Comrade, when you saw that little girl back then, didn't it remind you of your past self?"
Zhuo Yi heard this and while putting the crab legs on Hao Fei's plate, said with a somewhat unpleasant tone: "Didn't you just take in a lively and lovely apprentice? Why ask me, who only knows how to pull long faces at your former apprentice?" As she spoke, Zhuo Yi emphasized the word "former" particularly.
The other old pilots all knew that Zhuo Yi was angry with Hao Fei for breaking his promise, but they just smiled and didn't intervene.
Hao Fei listened to Zhuo Yi's complaints and put the crab legs he had prepared on Zhuo Yi's plate, saying softly: "What! You became our squadron leader as an apprentice, don't you recognize me as your master?"
"Wait!" Seeing Hao Fei's serious expression, Zhuo Yi hastily made a pausing gesture and said, "Can't I say anything?"
As soon as Zhuo Yi mentioned Jiang Yu Rong, all the other old pilots couldn't help but put down what they were holding and looked at Zhuo Yi with eager faces.
Zhuo Yi didn't expect this batch of old pilots to be so interested in Jiang Yuru, and before speaking, he deliberately teased everyone by saying: "No, I seriously suspect that you are all concerned about her because you have been on the ship for too long and are too lonely."
Zhuo Yi unexpectedly teased himself, and Hao Fei also laughed and stood up, pulling his throat and shouting: "Sun Fan, your family..."
Master Wang was about to bring up the old embarrassing incident again, so Zhuo Yi quickly begged for mercy and pulled Hao Fei back into his seat, saying: "Master, I was wrong, I'll say it!"
At this time, on New Fly's side, a small rumor that was not credible caused everyone to gather around in an instant.
Lü Kun sat in the middle of the circle, beckoning others to gather closer before saying in a low voice: "Internal news, this selection is actually not just choosing six people!"
This news immediately caused all the other students to start whispering among themselves.
Qiu Lin, who had just returned from the kitchen with a delicious dish, saw that everyone was surrounding Lü Kun and whispering something. Her curiosity suddenly got the better of her, and she squeezed into the crowd, asking Lü Kun coldly: "What's going on?"
Qiu Lin suddenly appeared, scaring Lü Kun so much that he trembled all over and almost fell off his stool.
"Ah, it's Qiu Lin. Lu Kun took a deep breath to calm down, looking quite annoyed, and said: 'Gluttonous girl, don't just pop up out of nowhere next time, okay?'"
"Don't call me a foodie girl!" Qiu Lin said, glaring at Lü Kun, then pinched another crab leg and put it in her mouth, asking while chewing: "Hurry up, what's some fresh news that I don't know about?"
Lü Kūn saw Qiū Lín was indeed a foodie, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in Qiū Lín. Qiū Lín gave him a sideways glance and said: "I'm telling you, but you're not allowed to tell anyone else!"
"I guarantee it!"
"According to reliable sources, this time..."
"What's going on? Don't you know it's not allowed to whisper to each other during meals?" Sun Fan's sudden appearance scared the students who were surrounding Lü Kun, and they quickly returned to their own seats. Lü Kun looked at Sun Fan and also smiled, then turned his head back to eat, without mentioning the news from earlier.
Qiu Lin couldn't help but pout and muttered under her breath as she returned to her own seat, feeling a bit unhappy that she hadn't heard any new gossip.
At this time, Sun Qifan and Jiang Yurou were picking food at the kitchen counter one after another. However, after walking around in a circle, Jiang Yurou's plate was still empty, and so was Sun Qifan's.
Jiang Yurou suddenly stopped and took a deep breath, turning around to ask Sun Qifan with a look of impatience: "What are you following me for?"
Sun Qifan let out a cold laugh: "This isn't your home, what makes you think I'm following you?"
Jiang Yuru couldn't argue with Sun Qifan, so she glared at him and put the plate back in the cabinet. She turned around and walked out of the dining hall. Seeing that Jiang Yuru wouldn't be eating dinner, Sun Qifan couldn't help but worry that she would go hungry later. He turned his head to face the chef, smiled, and asked: "Chef, can I take two more?"
The class monitor smiled and said, "Take it, just don't waste it."
"No problem!" The head of the cooking class responded to himself, and Sun Qifan immediately laughed and took double portions of all kinds of food. After finishing, he didn't return to his seat to eat, but instead turned around and hastily left the cafeteria.
A soldier from the cooking squad saw Sun Qifan taking things out of the cafeteria and couldn't help but want to step forward to stop him, but was stopped by the head of the cooking squad. Looking at Sun Qifan, the head of the cooking squad couldn't help but purse his lips and sigh, thinking that he and his wife hadn't seen each other for half a year, and only he knew the depth of his longing.
Lao Fei's side, after listening to Zhuo Yi's description of Jiang Yu Rong, couldn't help but say in unison: "Another Zhuo Yi!"
Forget it, Hao Fei suddenly remembered that there was a special person among the students. However, he didn't know the name of that person, only remembering that he could call Zhao Hu brother, and had long wanted to know who it was.
Zhuo Yi listened to the master's description and naturally knew that the person Hao Fei was talking about was Sun Qifan. She couldn't help but smile and said, "This kind of person, even Sun Fu can't afford to offend him, what do you think?"
As soon as they heard that even Sun Feng was afraid of him for three points, all the old pilots including Hao Fei couldn't help but laugh in disbelief. However, they were also eager to meet Sun Qifan. Zhuo Yi also stood up and prepared to introduce Hao Fei to this person who had piqued their interest, but after searching around, he couldn't find Sun Qifan anywhere. He then turned back and said: "Forget it, I'll tell you who he is tomorrow morning during training!"
Having said that, Zhuo Yi thought that the cafeteria might not only have Sun Qifan, but also Jiang Yurou. She couldn't help but get up and leave the cafeteria, heading towards the deck.
Arriving on the deck, Zhuo Yi didn't have to look hard and soon found Sun Qifan and Jiang Yurou sitting side by side at the end of the Liaoning aircraft carrier's flight deck. At this moment, Sun Qifan was saying something to Jiang Yurou, peeling a prawn in his hand, seemingly for Jiang Yurou, but she completely ignored him, turning her head to one side.
Zhuo Yi knew what had happened at noon, and couldn't help but smile. "Everything... let everyone have a moment of peace." With that, Zhuo Yi followed the flight deck of the Liaoning aircraft carrier, looking towards the eastern horizon where the moon was slowly rising. The surrounding escort ships were also brightly lit. Two people, one scene, such harmony, was too rare for soldiers.
