An 80s female translator was spoiled rotten by a rough and jealous man.

Chapter 65 Love is truly complicated~
Shen Xi's lips curled slightly as she focused her gaze on the map. After a long while, she slowly spoke, "So, according to Battalion Commander Huo, what insightful opinion do you have?"

Huo Qingshan met Shen Xi's gaze and said in a deep voice, "Based on our past experience in patrols and local reconnaissance, I suggest that we first divide the border area into multiple blocks, and use the existing patrol routes as a framework to connect the relatively safe high ground within each block as basic measurement points."

"Only by accurately grasping the macro level can subsequent detailed measurements avoid deviating from the overall picture."

If a macro-level topographical framework is not established first, and only local details are focused on, the resulting map is likely to have overall inaccuracies, which could be highly misleading for military strategic planning.

Shen Xi crossed her arms over her chest, her expression somewhat serious.

Huo Qingshan continued unhurriedly, "Using the measurement points I mentioned above, we can form a preliminary measurement network framework. Based on this, we can use a combination of triangulation and traverse surveying to gradually expand the survey to the area around the framework, thereby supplementing and refining the local topographic information."

By adopting this progressive and gradual approach, from the macro-level framework to the micro-level details, we can ensure both the scientific and systematic nature of data collection while also considering practical security and accessibility.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the meeting room became subtly tense, and all the other attendees remained silent.

Commander Wang cleared his throat, breaking the silence, and said in a calm tone, "It's getting late, so how about we call it a day?"

He stood up first to signal the end of the meeting, and before leaving, he said, "Huo Qingshan, come to my office with me."

As everyone left, Meng Youyou was also about to leave when she saw Shen Xi sitting motionless in his seat, intently staring at the topographical map in front of him.

I couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you leaving?"

Shen Xi didn't even look up. "Let me take another look. You go ahead, Yoyo."

……

As lunchtime drew to a close, people gradually left the cafeteria. After finishing her meal, Meng Youyou took her tray to the designated recycling area and arranged it neatly.

The cooks were busy wiping the tables and sweeping the floor; the clinking of aluminum plates and the rustling of brooms filled the empty dining hall.

Meng Youyou walked to the entrance of the cafeteria, then suddenly stopped, thinking of the exquisite crystal ball gift she had received.

He then turned back and walked towards the food serving window.

Cook Lao Zhang was packing the leftover food into storage boxes and cleaning the stove.

Meng Youyou said apologetically, "Uncle Zhang, do you have any empty aluminum lunchboxes here? Could I borrow one? I'd like to pack some food in it, and I'll return it to you tomorrow after I wash it."

……

Meng Youyou took the food that had been served, then turned her gaze to scan the few people in the cafeteria.

He immediately adjusted his route and headed towards his target.

Meng Youyou greeted him with a smile: "Company Commander Zhong."

Zhong Heng quickly swallowed the last bite of food in his mouth and replied, "Translator Meng."

Meng Youyou: "..."

He deliberately raised the aluminum lunchbox in his hand a little higher, placing it in a more conspicuous position.

This time... Zhang Yong was unusually quick-witted and asked, "Has Translator Meng not eaten yet?"

Meng Youyou replied with a slight smile, "I've already finished eating. I was kept behind by Commander Wang after the afternoon meeting, but we didn't come up with a concrete solution. Shen Xi is still in the meeting room studying things. He hasn't eaten, and I was worried that the food would be sold out by the time it got late, so I got him some."

Zhang Yong smiled and said, "You and Expert Shen have a really good relationship!"

Meng Youyou: "..." Meng Youyou closed her eyes briefly, then continued seemingly casually, "Hey. After the meeting, Commander Wang called Battalion Commander Huo up alone. Haven't they come down yet?"

Zhang Yong slapped his forehead. "That's right! I was wondering why I hadn't seen our battalion commander in the mess hall all day. Turns out he's still in the regimental commander's office."

Then he turned to Zhong Heng and asked, "Do you think we should get a meal for the regimental commander and the battalion commander and send it over?"

……

Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Meng Youyou said a brief goodbye and left through the side door of the cafeteria.

Zhong Heng watched Meng Youyou's departing figure, lost in thought.

He instinctively shook his head repeatedly: "Love is so complicated!"

……

After delivering the food to the conference room, Meng Youyou reminded him, "Remember to return it after you wash it clean," and then left.

There's still a document left to translate today, so Meng Youyou plans to go back to the office to work overtime.

At night, the corridor was dimly lit. Meng Youyou walked to the office door and saw light seeping out from the crack in the door.

The light created a bright barrier on the dark ground, contrasting sharply with the surrounding shadows.

Meng Youyou pushed open the door.

Huo Qingshan was slightly hunched over, his head bowed, holding a pair of delicate tweezers in his hand, his face completely focused.

The door was suddenly opened, catching the man off guard. His instinctive agility prompted him to quickly cover the object on the table with a book.

Meng Youyou only saw a small section of the colorful silk thread that was showing.

Meng Youyou's gaze shifted to the right, landing on an unopened aluminum lunchbox on the corner of the table, and she couldn't help but frown.

……

Three days later, the survey and experiment plan was finalized. Shen Xi and Huo Qingshan each compromised and, after careful consideration, decided to use Huo Qingshan's plan as the prototype, but retained the three observation points that Shen Xi had insisted on defending.

These three observation points were Shenxi's bottom line. After thinking it over, Huo Qingshan believed that the risk level at these locations was within a controllable range, so he agreed.

The weather was beautiful on the day the survey team set off; the sky was clear, the clouds were thin, and the sun shone brightly.

The trial plan was originally scheduled for five days, with the initial plan to collect topographic data from three locations: the southwest corner of Cangying Ridge, the eastern slope of Gulang Peak, and the upper reaches of Qingshuijian.

Throughout the day, the group worked in an orderly manner, but due to a lack of coordination and insufficient assessment of the complexity and ruggedness of the local geography, they encountered numerous difficulties on their journey.

After a lot of hard work, we have only barely reached a little over half of the expected progress.

As night fell, they chose to set up camp in a flat area near a mountain stream, surrounded by trees that provided some shelter and made it easy to get water.

The Cangying Ridge area is characterized by lush vegetation and a warm, humid climate, providing an ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes. Furthermore, the surrounding stagnant waters and marshes contribute to the abundance of mosquitoes, which are numerous and highly venomous.

After a day of this, Meng Youyou suffered greatly. Her exposed skin was covered with large and small red rashes and raised bumps, and she couldn't help but scratch them.

Just then, a strong arm suddenly grabbed her wrist.
