Chapter 1636: I’m willing, are you not?
Zuo Jia blinked, looked at Fu rongting, and then at the soldier whose skin was tanned from being exposed to the wind and sun for a long time, and said,””I’m not …”
Before she could finish, Fu rongting said lightly,””Don’t shout, she’s my sister!”
“Hello, miss Fu!” The soldier immediately changed his greeting.
Zuo Jia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He had clearly said her surname was Zuo, so why did he still call her “miss Fu”? this soldier must have done it on purpose!
He didn’t believe that she was Fu rongting’s sister and was certain that she was his girlfriend.
Zuo Jia didn’t explain any further. She smiled and said,”Hello,” before turning to Fu rongting.”Will it be inconvenient for you if I come here?”
Fu rongting took the suitcase from her hands, his expression indifferent.”No, you’re always welcome!”
He got into the car with Zuo Jia. It had only taken him ten minutes to get there, but the journey back took half an hour.
Zuo Jia immediately realized that Fu rongting had probably driven the car at top speed.
His care and concern for her were all reflected in the details, but he had never said what he had done.
There were some tents in the center of the camp, but there were not many people. There were only a few people in camouflage clothes and guns, ready to change shifts with other people.
There were no women in the camp at all. When the soldiers who had been working hard suddenly saw Fu rongting bring back an outstanding beauty, they all jeered,””Boss, sister-in-law is here to see you! Not only is sister-in-law beautiful, but she’s also really good to you! Sister-in-law, do you have any sisters? we’re all single!”
Before Zuo Jia could say anything, Fu rongting calmly said,”This is my younger sister.”
“Really? That’s great! She didn’t have a boyfriend, right? Boss, we’re all talented in both civil and military affairs. Do you want to pick one of us to be your brother-in-law?”
Fu rongting laughed at his own men.”Get lost! Hurry up and change shifts!”
After they left noisily, Fu rongting invited Zuo Jia into the tent.
“They’re used to being in the wilderness, so they don’t have any scruples with their words. Don’t take it to heart. ”
“It’s fine. They’re all fine,”Zuo Jia said with a gentle smile.
After she finished speaking, she didn’t know what else to say. Fu rongting didn’t speak either, and the tent was silent for a while.
Zuo Jia sized up Fu rongting’s tent, which was only about the size of a bedroom. Fu rongting was tall and had long legs, so when he stood up, his head was already at the top of the tent.
The tent’s decoration was simple, but it was kept clean by Fu rongting. Even the Army green quilt had been folded into a square.
In the simple tent, the rigorous and well-trained soldiers were vividly reflected.
In the quiet atmosphere, Zuo Jia’s stomach suddenly grumbled.
She hurriedly covered her stomach, her face slightly flushed, and said to Fu rongting, a little embarrassed,””I’m hungry, so, so hungry …”
Fu rongting suddenly laughed. He stood up and hugged Zuo Jia for a moment, then pulled away. “I’ll make you something to eat. ”
He hugged her and separated her so quickly that when Zuo Jia wanted to push him away, he had already let go and walked out of the tent to get her something to eat.
Zuo Jia gently patted her forehead and told herself not to be so pretentious. He was just giving her a hug, and it was nothing to let him hug her.
Zuo Jia gave herself a psychological suggestion, then also left the tent and followed Fu rongting to another tent.
There was no one in the tent. There was only a simple stove, a small pot, a few vegetables, canned food, compressed biscuits, chocolate, and the like that they had built.
“There’s very little food in the camp. What do you eat?”
Zuo Jia’s heart suddenly ached. Did Fu rongting only eat this when he was out on a mission?
He was a true young master of the general’s office, but he did not have any of the flaws of a young master. He could bear hardships and endure.
“Do you usually eat this? Won’t the nutrition level not be enough?”
“No, the Army will distribute milk. Soldiers who have special missions will usually take a break for a while after completing their missions. There’s no big problem.”
The wood in the stove was still burning. Fu rongting poured some water and cooked some noodles for Zuo Jia.
Celery and some wild vegetables that he had just dug up yesterday were placed in the noodles. He sprinkled some green onions on it and cut a few pieces of marinated beef.
“You don’t have to give me the meat. You guys can keep it!” Zuo Jia quickly said.
“It’s fine. We don’t lack meat. There are many rats here. There should be enough.”
Zuo Jia looked at Fu rongting, dumbfounded.”Old … Rat?”
Fu rongting smiled, revealing his white teeth. “I’m just joking. ”
Zuo Jia looked at him in a daze. She felt that he didn’t seem to be joking. She remembered watching a documentary before. Many soldiers didn’t have anything to eat in the wild, so they would eat rat meat to fill their stomachs. It wasn’t cooked either. They would peel the skin and eat it raw.
Fu rongting carried the bowl of noodles and two cans of canned food, and brought Zuo Jia back to his tent.
“Eat and try my cooking. No one else has this kind of treatment.”
That was true. Young master Fu didn’t cook at home, and he was the commander outside, so he naturally didn’t need to cook for the soldiers.
Zuo Jia was already very hungry. Fu rongting’s noodles looked simple, but they were delicious. With the canned fish, Zuo Jia even finished the soup.
She was quite satisfied with the food, and her face was ruddy. She smiled more,””Really, it’s all my dad’s fault. He said I’d be here in two hours and I could treat you to lunch. I had breakfast at 7 am and didn’t eat anything else!”
She was sitting on a simple wooden stool, holding her chin and smiling.
Fu rongting said softly,”it’s so far away here. I didn’t expect you to come. You should have told me in advance. I’ll pick you up.”
The road to this side was not easy to walk on. Zuo Jia was a girl, so Fu rongting’s joy was far from the calmness he showed on his face.
“Is there something you need from me?”
“Oh … I … I just wanted to thank you for taking care of me.” Zuo Jia was at a loss for words.
“You’ve recovered from your cold?”
“Yes, I’m done.”
“You have nothing else to say?”
Fu rongting felt that she probably didn’t come all the way here just to thank him.
Zuo Jia bit her lip and didn’t know what to say.”You and I … We …”
She could not continue.
Fortunately, she didn’t need to explain too clearly, and Fu rongting understood what she meant.
“I’m willing. Are you not?”he asked indifferently.
“Ah? I … This …”
Zuo Jia was afraid that she would hurt Lou Ziling if she rejected her directly. She had been rejected by Lou Ziling in the past and she was very sad.
But if she did not refuse, what if Fu rongting misunderstood?
She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice,”you know that I like someone else. I may not be able to live with you.”
