Girls und War

"It's me, it's me! Stop pinching me! It will hurt!" Xia Shu quickly slapped Ai'er's hand away.

Ai'er smiled foolishly for a while, feeling a little embarrassed.

Then Xia Shu lowered his head to look at Xiao Meng, who also looked up and smiled, his face full of joy at the long-awaited reunion.

"That's great, I thought you had forgotten about us..." Shan Mei stood aside, so moved that she almost cried.

Xiaomian pulled Xia Shu to his seat again, took out some delicious food from the cabinet and handed it to Xia Shu.

Xia Shu smiled and patted Xiao Meng's head, then turned his head to look at him, and then asked, "Where's Mi Yu? Isn't she with you?"

Ai'er and Shanmei looked at each other and did not speak for a while.

"I remember today seems to be Mi Yu's birthday? I received a notification two days ago, and then I remembered to come here to see you. Where is she? Did she go out to buy things?" Xia Shu said absentmindedly while feeding Xiaomian.

Ai Er hesitated for a moment before saying, "Today...someone else came to visit Mi Yu..."

Shan Mei also muttered quietly, "No wonder... No wonder... She didn't tell us..."

It seems that Mi Yu is also the kind of girl who looks enthusiastic but is lonely inside.

Even when it’s my birthday, I don’t like to tell others about it.

If Xia Shu hadn't been given special attention by Mi Yu, Aier and the others might still be kept in the dark.

676. Meeting

Xia Shu didn't notice the strangeness of Ai'er and Shan Mei for a moment, and asked casually, "Did anyone else come to celebrate her birthday? That's pretty good. So they are together now?"

Ai'er said "hmm..."

"Where did they go?" Xia Shu looked up and asked again.

"This... should still be in the cafeteria, right?" Shan Mei looked at Ai'er hesitantly.

Al shrugged, indicating that there was nothing he could do.

"Then I'll go see Mi Yu first and give her a surprise." Xia Shu smiled and stood up and walked out.

The two people in the room didn't know how to respond for a moment, so they could only let Xia Shu leave the dormitory.

After a brief silence, Shan Mei said to Ai Er, "Then...how about...we prepare a gift for Mi Yu first?"

Ai Er showed a heavy expression and replied, "It seems that this is the only way for now."

Then he quickly began to think about what gift to prepare.

Only Xiaomian sighed and silently opened his communication panel.

-

After Xia Shu left the dormitory, she asked a private passing by where their canteen was.

The corporal didn't recognize Xia Shu, but when he saw her rank of sergeant, he hurriedly showed her the way.

Xia Shu said thank you and then walked quickly towards the cafeteria.

Mi Yu, who was sitting in the cafeteria, was looking at the drink in the cup with a complicated expression.

She was thinking about what to say when her communication interface suddenly started shaking.

Seeing this, Mi Yu opened the communication absentmindedly.

But the next second, her expression became very interesting.

Just when she was wondering if Xiaomian was joking with her, she heard a voice she had longed for.

"Hey, Miyu, you are here after all?"

Xia Shu walked into the cafeteria in a dignified manner and greeted Mi Yu loudly.

Mi Yu stood up suddenly, then turned around with a look of shock on his face.

But what appeared on her face was not surprise.

But frightened.

Xia Shu was looking at Miyu's silly expression and smiling.

Suddenly, she saw a girl in front of her tilt her head and look at her.

Xia Shu then realized that there was another girl sitting directly opposite Mi Yu. He hadn't seen her because of the bad angle.

Mi Yu opened her mouth blankly and asked, "Why are you..."

Before she could finish her words, the girl smiled, looked at Mi Yu and said, "Is this the object of your secret crush? The star you long for but can't get?"

When Mi Yu heard the word "stars", his expression darkened.

But before she could react, Xia Shu came over.

An unfamiliar sergeant suddenly appeared in the cafeteria, which surprised the other girls in the company.

Xia Shu heard many girls around her saying "Hello, class monitor" to her, so she responded one by one and faced them with a smile.

"Long time no see, Miyu. I haven't seen you message me recently. Why, are you unhappy to see me? Am I not supposed to be here?"

Xia Shu walked up to Mi Yu and said this in a joking tone.

Mi Yu, on the other hand, showed a smile that was uglier than crying, as if Xia Shu's appearance here at this time was really beyond her expectations.

Xia Shu didn't notice anything wrong with Mi Yu, but turned to the girl opposite Mi Yu.

"this……"

Before she could ask, the girl reached out and shook one of Xia Shu's hands, smiling broadly and saying, "Hello, Xia Shu! I'm Mi Yu's... um... good friend. Nice to meet you. Oh, and I'm a big fan of yours!"

Natsuki smiled modestly and took another closer look at the girl.

She was wearing only ordinary girl's clothes, with her long hair casually draped around her neck. Xia Shu could sense that she had no military aura at all, and was probably just an ordinary student girl.

Seeing a huge pair of headphones hanging around her neck, it seems that she is a girl who loves music very much.

But for some reason, Xia Shu always felt that this girl was very strange.

It seemed as if the smile on her face and the enthusiasm she showed were all fake.

There seemed to be a kind of cold rejection in her eyes, which made people feel that the girl seemed to be a very difficult character to get along with.

Xia Shu suspected that this was just his own illusion, so he smiled and asked, "What's your name?"

The girl paused, not knowing what she was thinking about. It was not until Xia Shu asked again that she smiled and replied, "Xiao Jue, my name is Xiao Jue."

Is it strange and cunning? The name really suits him.

The two of them stood there and exchanged some meaningless greetings, but suddenly Mi Yu pulled Xia Shu's sleeve and said, "Let's... talk somewhere else?"

Xia Shu looked at her, and seeing that the other people in the restaurant were also gradually giving her gossipy expressions, he nodded and said, "Then let's go somewhere else."

"Go to the back of the training ground." Mi Yu said, lowering his head and walking in front.

But Xiao Jue suddenly jumped over and took Xia Shu's arm affectionately.

Xia Shu hesitated for a moment, but for Mi Yu's sake, he did not act as if he was keeping her at a distance.

The three of them walked along the path in front of the cafeteria, one in front and two behind, all the way to the open space behind the training ground.

Mi Yu thought for a long time, turned around and was about to speak, but saw Xiao Jue holding Xia Shu intimately, and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Xia Shu spoke first, "I heard it was your birthday, so I came over to help you celebrate. How is it? Are you happy?"

Mi Yu was about to ask, "Why are you...", but then she suddenly realized and said, "Oh... I'm paying special attention to you..."

Then she forced a smile and said, "Happy, of course I'm happy..."

If it weren't today, I would be even happier.

"Hey..." Xiaoju suddenly showed a teasing expression, as if he wanted to say something.

Mi Yu suddenly became flustered and seemed to want to stop her from speaking.

But at this moment, a girl's voice suddenly came from the runway.

"Miyu, Miyu, are you there? The company commander wants you to go to the team headquarters!"

Mi Yu was stunned for a moment, then replied, "I know!"

Then he looked at Xiao Jue hesitantly and said, "You..."

"Let me help you entertain Xia Shu. Don't worry, I will make sure she celebrates your birthday happily!" Xiao Jue replied with a smile.

Mi Yu was stunned for a moment, then showed a pleading expression.

Xiao Jue nodded again and said, "I understand. I won't talk nonsense. I understand."

But there was a cold and cunning look in the corners of her eyes.

The girl over there urged again, and Mi Yu had no choice but to reply, "Come right over."

Then he looked at Xia Shu deeply again before trotting away.

-

The long-awaited Mi Yu is finally back.

Are you happy? (laughs)

677. Circuit Breaker

After Miyu left, Xiaojue took Xia Shu for a walk around the training ground.

It was almost dusk, the training time had long passed, and there were only scattered girls doing relaxing exercises on the field.

Seeing Xiao Jue constantly asking about Mi Yu's time in the recruit company, Xia Shu asked, "Didn't Mi Yu tell you?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jue's expression gradually became depressed, and then he let go of his hands and began to step on the tire shakily.

Xia Shu guessed that there was a problem in their friendship, so he began to think about whether he should help to remedy it.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jue suddenly sat on the horizontal bar and said to Xia Shu, "Sister Xia Shu, I lied to you."

Xia Shu was stunned for a moment and said, "Huh?"

Xiao Jue's eyes wandered, and he spoke again, "Actually... Sister Miyu and I were lovers before."

"This..." Xia Shu didn't know how to continue.

Seeing Xiao Jue's silent expression, Xia Shu asked tentatively, "You... broke up?"

"Yeah, we broke up." Xiao Jue said softly, slowly smoothing his hair along with the breeze, "Just a month before she joined the army."

Xiao Jue didn't want to say more about the rest of the story, but Xia Shu could guess a little bit about it.

Many young men and women who join the army will encounter emotional breakdowns due to long-distance relationships.

After all, not everyone can accept not having any news from their loved one for ten days or half a month, and having to rush to schedule a phone call.

I say I'll wait for you for three years, but three years pass and then another three years, and then another three years. When I go back, the children will call me uncle!

So it is better to suffer a short pain than a long one, so just break up directly - it is worse than being cuckolded for no reason during the military service.

Xia Shu naturally regarded the relationship between Miyu and Xiao Jue as this situation.

She was about to say something to excuse Mi Yu, but suddenly she heard a sobbing sound.

It turned out that Xiao Jue had been in tears for some time and was wiping her tears with the back of her hand.

Xia Shu frantically searched for tissues in his pocket, but Xiao Jue suddenly said, "But I still can't forget her!"

As he spoke, his body tilted and fell to the side.

Xia Shu quickly stepped forward to hold her shoulders. Xiao Jue then reached out and grabbed Xia Shu, saying, "I really miss her..."

"..."

Natsuki hesitated for a moment, then helped her up and sat her on the steps.

After her tears dried little by little, Xia Shu asked, "Do you still want to get back together with her?"
