Chapter 83 - Extra 3: Slow navigation
01.
On a Friday in military training, students take half-day off.
All the other students in the dormitory went to the back street of the school to buy daily necessities or eat. Only Meng Sisi was alone outside the dormitory building in District C of the school.
The dormitory building in Area C will be demolished in the second half of the year, and there are no students living here. All the instructors who came to the military training this time lived there.
Sisi waited for an hour and saw Xu Hang walking out of the dormitory with a stainless steel lunch box.
The man was wearing a black short T, his muscles were taut, and his lower body camouflage trousers were tucked into his boots. The man walked past her as if he hadn’t seen her.
Meng Sisi chased after him: “Instructor Xu! Wait a minute.”
Only then did Xu Hang look back at the little girl with no expression: “Huh?”
Meng Sisi handed him the two apples he brought: “Instructor, this is for you.”
Xu Hang glanced at the two apples in the girl’s hand, and said politely, “No merit will not be rewarded.”
Meng Sisi let out an “Oops” and put two apples in his stainless steel lunch box, “You can take it as an old man. It’s a gift. You give me a bullet necklace, and I’ll give you a big apple.”
Xu Hang looked down at the two apples in the lunch box, and nodded to the little girl: “Thank you. There may be an emergency gathering tonight, go to eat early and rest early.”
“Well.” Meng Sisi hesitated for a moment, then asked him again: “By the way, Instructor Xu, can you give me your contact information? I’m afraid that after the military training is over, I won’t be able to contact you.”
Xu Hang refused: “The military training is over, so there is no need to contact him again.”
“Why?”
Xu Hang’s voice was not emotionally fluctuating: “I don’t answer calls from anyone other than my family and comrades-in-arms.”
“It doesn’t have to be a mobile phone, can QQ do it?”
“No QQ.”
Meng Sisi: “…”
Xu Hang was like a stone, and he couldn’t pry it open. Meng Sisi’s attempts to contact him ended in failure. On the night of the military training, Meng Sisi tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
She buried herself under the covers, turned on her phone and stared at Xu Hang’s photo in a daze. This photo was taken secretly during military training.
The facial features of men are cold and hard, and they do not show their prestige. Wearing a suit of camouflage, sitting cross-legged on the ground, although the skin is slightly darker, the face is tall and the eyelashes are thick and long.
She couldn’t tell what attracted her to this man, probably because of his speech, probably because of his serious eyebrows, probably because of the sense of security he gave off.
Anyway, just like it.
02.
During the National Day holiday, the streets and alleys of Harbour City are crowded, and the flow of people is no less than that of the mainland.
Meng Sisi thought that she might never have the chance to see Xu Hang in her whole life, but she didn’t expect to see Xu Hang in a suit and carrying a briefcase while shopping in the mall.
The man was wearing a neat suit, his skin was a little paler than when he was in military training, and he was dressed like an elite in the workplace. Meng Sisi saw Xu Hang from a distance, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated, thinking she was confused.
Seeing her stunned, Yan Yixiao came over to call her, patted her on the shoulder and asked, “Sisi, what are you doing?”
The girl followed her gaze and said in surprise, “Isn’t that… Instructor Xu?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Sisi rushed towards Xu Hang. Yan Yixiao also planned to go there, but by coincidence, there was a phone call.
Xu Hang seemed to be waiting for someone. While looking around, he did not forget to raise his wrist to check the time. Meng Sisi stopped two steps behind the man, took a deep breath, scratched his forehead bangs, walked around to Xu Hang, pretended to meet him by chance and greeted him: “Instructor Xu! It’s really you!”
Xu Hang did not expect to meet her here.
Men are on a mission and cannot be exposed. He put his arms around the girl’s shoulders and walked forward with her, using her as a shield to disguise his identity.
Meng Sisi guessed that he might be on a special mission and cooperated very well. Xu Hang took him into the mall, and after walking for a while, he let go of her, said thank you to her, and was about to leave.
Meng Sisi grabbed his clothes, “Wait for Instructor Xu.”
Xu Hang turned his head to look at her.
Meng Sisi said: “Instructor Xu, last time you refused to give me my contact information. This time, you have taken advantage of me for so long. You should give me my contact information as compensation, right?”
Meng Sisi pulled out a ballpoint pen from his bag and handed it to him, then handed the back of his hand over: “Well, I want your phone number, QQ, and email address. In short, I want all the contact information that can get you in touch. This is what I want. It’s not too much to ask, is it?”
Xu Hang was stunned for a moment, and after writing a pen, he wrote down his mobile phone number and email address on the back of her hand.
Meng Sisi got Xu Hang’s contact information, and the girl’s heart swelled rapidly. But she knew that even if she confessed to Xu Hang, the other party would not accept her and would only treat her as a child.
Xu Hang’s phone was always switched off, but Meng Sisi texted him, and he would return every two or three days.
Xu Hang has a cold temper and doesn’t know much about chatting. And Meng Sisi is a chatter, as long as the other party is alive, there is always a chat with her.
Xu Hang was in the army when he was a teenager, not to mention chatting with girls, even with men, there is nothing to chat with. In order to chat with Xu Hang, Meng Sisi specially asked him some questions about exercise.
“Instructor Xu, do you know how to do jiu-jitsu?”
Three days later, Xu Hang replied: Yes.
Meng Sisi was excited: “I’ve been researching the naked twist to control the enemy recently, and I can’t always find the right spot. Can you give me some pointers?”
Then he turned the difficulties he encountered into words and sent them to Xu Hang.
A week later, Xu Hang replied to her a large paragraph of text, and also conducted a very detailed analysis of her physique characteristics. Xu Hang’s writing skills are not very good. At the end of the text message, he added: “I have the opportunity to teach you face-to-face. In this way, I will send a video to your mailbox, and you will also record a video for me to see, so that it is better to correct me.”
Meng Sisi: “Okay! Thank you, Instructor Xu, you are an angel! I love you!”
The word “I love you” is something Su Qin often tells them in the dormitory, and she has learned it over and over again.
This word is indeed quite subtle. When you hear it for the first time, you may feel very solemn. There is a feeling of confession of a junior to an elder, and it will not make people feel ambiguous. But after listening to it a few times, it becomes a bit of a joke.
Xu Hang received the text message “I love you” from Meng Sisi, holding the phone for a while, then raised the corner of his lips and laughed. He lamented that today’s children are really naughty.
Xu Hang had no family and no friends outside, so Meng Sisi had almost all his communication time. When the injury is resting, open the mobile phone and read the text messages of the little girl, and the mind will be very peaceful.
When the girl has no problem asking him for advice, she will tell him some interesting things happening around her. Including the affairs of several girls in their dormitory.
In order to have more topics with Xu Hang, she will know a lot of weapons. Sometimes he also pretends not to understand, like a child with a high thirst for knowledge.
The two chatted for about half a year before Meng Sisi knew that Xu Hang had retired.
So the time for Xu Hang to reply to her message changed from two or three days to two or three weeks. Xu Hang has no QQ, even if she shares her life in the space every day, he can’t see it.
In order to have a place in Xu Hang’s heart, Meng Sisi would record every day’s anecdotes, write it down in a small document for a week, and then send it to Xu Hang in the form of an email.
After sharing her life for a week, Meng Sisi felt it was inappropriate, so she added a recent photo of herself.
In this way, Xu Hang can not only know his current situation, but also will not forget what he looks like.
The days of waiting for Xu Hang to reply are very difficult, but fortunately, the girl will not feel so empty when she is full of learning. But she waited for a week, two weeks, three weeks, but couldn’t wait for Xu Hang’s reply.
She began to think wildly, thinking that Xu Hang might think she was annoying and wanted to cut off contact with her. Or maybe I have a new job after retiring, I have come into contact with more people, and I have a girl I like.
Thinking of this, the girl felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Just when she thought that Xu Hang would never reply to her email, Xu Hang sent her a photo of himself by email.
The man sat on a high-end sofa, wearing a tank top and shorts, with serious eyebrows and eyes, a straight back, his hands on his knees, and a sitting posture like a primary school student wearing a red scarf.
Although there is no text attached to this photo, Meng Sisi burst out laughing.
And this photo of Xu Hang was taken by Li Chuan for him. He was injured in the process of tracking down the traffickers and was taken home by Li Chuan. He borrowed Li Chuan’s computer to check his emails, and based on what he knew about the little girl, he felt that she might feel that he had unilaterally broke up with her.
In order to comfort the little girl, he quickly asked Li Chuan to take a photo of himself and send it to her.
Then I wrote a concise text: “I’ve been busy recently, and I can’t communicate with outsiders at work. I just saw your news. My work is confidential and can’t be shared with you. My life is boring, and I have nothing to share with you, sorry.”
Meng Sisi: “It’s okay, my life is interesting! You read my sharing, didn’t you also share my interesting life? Xu Hang, I am relieved to know that you still treat me as a friend. That, Xu Hang, can you Promise me one thing?”
“Ok?”
“You have a girlfriend in the future, can you tell me? I am a girl after all. If you have a girlfriend and someone you like, I will definitely not send you any more messages. After all, I am also a girl, Knowing a girl’s inner thoughts, if her boyfriend has friends of the opposite sex, the girl will always be unhappy. So, if you have someone you like, please tell me, okay?”
When Meng Sisi made this request, Xu Hang was slightly startled.
They have known each other for more than half a year, from reluctance to give contact information at first, to a few short text messages later, to a long text exchange later…
Xu Hang likes to watch the little girl’s life sharing, and also knows the girl’s past. She is carefree, but like an energy ball, it will send energy to people.
Xu Hang looked at her life, as if this girl was living beside him, injecting a touch of color into the boring life.
Seeing Meng Sisi’s words, Xu Hang thought subconsciously. Why does he like other girls?
After a long time, he replied to Meng Sisi, “Okay.”
03.
Li Chuan established the “Bright” organization, and Xu Hang, as the captain, started to find “employees” for Li Chuan. The price and conditions of Li Chuankai are rich enough that for ordinary people, this is definitely a temptation.
But Xu Hang understands that members are not good enough if they have the ability, they must have their own bottom line. You can love money, but you can’t betray your promise for money.
Members of the organization must go through three tests:
1: Skill test.
2: Bottom line test.
3: Resilience test.
If you can pass these three tests, you can successfully join the organization. Xu Hang recruited a total of eight people, including his former comrade-in-arms Wu Yang.
Although Wu Yang always fights against him, his heart is sincere. And these eight people are all retired special forces, and three of them have family members.
In order to better protect the family members of “Bright” members, Li Chuan bought a piece of land and built a compound with fifteen villas built in it.
Each member is assigned a villa, and there is a special car to take the children to school every day. The tuition fees for their children are all paid by Li Chuan. At least in this compound, everyone’s safety can be guaranteed.
Li Chuan was thoughtful for the members of the organization, and they were even more determined to do things for him.
The combat mode they adopted was to be an informant for the police. They broke into the enemy’s camp for the police, and the police were responsible for acting as a backup force, cooperating with them inside and out, and completely overthrowing the enemy’s camp.
This model is still feasible in China and Paris, but when they arrived in Thailand, Xu Hang and the others discovered that the local military and police were corrupt, and many traffickers colluded with the local military and police, which was not very applicable.
Xu Hang performs tasks outside all year round, but his contact with Meng Sisi has never been broken. The girl travels every summer vacation and takes a lot of photos for him to see.
He sees the changes in Xu Hang day by day, so even if he can only see the little girl twice a year, he doesn’t think she is unfamiliar.
Meng Sisi graduated from high school and went to a university in another city.
One night in her freshman year, she tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep, so she edited a series of text messages and sent it to Xu Hang: “Comrade Hanghang, there are so many mosquitoes in the university dormitory, there is no air conditioning, so I’m so irritable. Hey, what are you doing now? What country?”
She thought the text would be the same as usual, and the man wouldn’t get back to her for a few weeks. Unexpectedly, not long after she sent it out, the other party replied in seconds: “Today in China, you eat noodles outside your school. Didn’t you sleep? I invite you to eat noodles?”
Meng Sisi, who received the text message, immediately sat up from the bed and made a phone call to Xu Hang.
After connecting, she took a deep breath and said “hello”: “Xu…hang?”
Although she likes to call him “Comrade Hanghang” in text messages and emails, in reality, she can’t say this kind of name.
Xu Hang: “You haven’t slept yet?”
“Are you outside our school?”
“Well, Xu Ji Noodle House.”
Meng Sisi couldn’t tell what it was like, but it was amazing that a man who he thought was thousands of miles away appeared here.
Can you see him without warning?
It’s been half a year since the last time they met, but it seems like it was yesterday. Meng Sisi didn’t dare to delay, put on slippers, put a sunscreen suit on her body, and rushed out of the dormitory building.
It was almost twelve o’clock, and there was no one in the back street of the school. Meng Sisi rushed to Xu Ji Noodle Restaurant in one breath, stopped at the door to look inside, and saw that the boss was cleaning, and there was only a man in black short sleeves sitting in the store, eating noodles with his back to the door.
The man has two strong arms, solid muscles, and looks very powerful.
She walked over and sat down opposite Xu Hang. While stuffing noodles into his mouth, the man pushed the easter egg to her: “Whatever you want, just order it.”
Meng Sisi picked up the menu and said in disgust, “Hey, Comrade Hanghang, you’re so stingy, would you just invite me to eat this?”
This title was called out by the girl herself, and Xu Hang actually felt that his bones were softly called. He bit off the noodles in his mouth and looked up at the girl: “Then, Comrade Sisi, what would you like to eat?”
Meng Sisi beckoned to call the boss and ordered a fried egg. Then he held his chin and told Xu Hang, “Actually, I want to eat the noodles you made.”
“Well, I have a chance to make it for you.” Xu Hang continued to eat noodles with his head down.
Meng Sisi asked, “How long is the chance?”
Xu Hang: “Next time.”
The girl looked disappointed: “The next time we meet, it is estimated that it will be six months later. Forget it, I don’t expect you to invite me to eat delicious food. When did you come back?”
“Tonight.” Xu Hang handed a wrapping paper bag on the stool beside him to the girl and said, “I wish you a happy birthday in advance.”
“My birthday is still half a month away.” Meng Sisi received the gift, glanced at the logo on the wrapping paper bag, and said with emotion, “My dear, Hermes?”
Meng Sisi has no concept of luxury, nor does she like to dress up. After she went to college, she had more time and spent a lot of time on training every day.
A wealthy lady of the same age spends millions to buy a car and a bag, and she pays to hire a personal trainer to accompany her to exercise every day.
Meng Sisi spends her spare time exercising. For convenience, she cuts off her long hair and always shows off her face in sportswear.
But girls also have very good skin because of frequent sweating. In summer physical education class, she is the focus of the stadium. Not only boys like to see her, but girls also envy her figure.
She has tight arms and a vest line, and she is particularly eye-catching when she wears a vest to play basketball on the playground. Although Meng Sisi is outstanding in appearance and has a good figure, no boys dared to chase after her. Ju said that she directly overturned the instructor during military training.
Meng Sisi, who is a “man’s wife”, doesn’t even have a decent women’s bag, let alone Hermes. She wears sports all year round, and in order to match her sportswear, her bags are also unisex sports bags.
Xu Hang gave her a Hermes, so she didn’t know how to use it, and put it at home as a decoration?
The boss brought the fried eggs, Meng Sisi took the chopsticks, picked them into Xu Hang’s bowl, and said, “Well, you are running around, eat more. I am really curious, what business are you doing in Thailand, Hermes is not cheap. Where did you get the money from?”
“I didn’t do anything illegal, the right way to make money through my own efforts. Why, don’t you like bags?”
Meng Sisi couldn’t say if she didn’t like something so expensive, so she said “I like it”.
Xu Hang didn’t know what gift to give the girl, so he consulted Li Chuan. And Li Chuan insisted that women like “bags”, and most women can’t stop the charm of bags.
Xu Hang believed his evil. But Meng Sisi happened to be that small group of women.
This time, in order to give a gift to Meng Sisi’s blessing, Xu Hang deliberately took time to come back. He has to take the six o’clock flight back to Thailand tomorrow.
Meng Sisi learned that he flew back on purpose to give himself a birthday present, and did not plan to sleep, so he took the man to camp on the top of Shengqingshan to watch fireflies.
September is the time when the fireflies are the most, and Xu Hang came at the right time.
They rented a tent on the top of the mountain, and because it was Monday, they were the only ones who rented the tent. They sat outside the tent waiting for the fireflies, chatting one after another.
Meng Sisi suggested: “Xu Hang, you haven’t made a video for me about a trick we discussed a few days ago, and now the fireflies haven’t come out yet, you can teach me now.”
“good.”
Xu Hang got up first, handed the girl a hand, and pulled her up.
Meng Sisi shot like a gust of wind, Xu Hang frowned, subconsciously dodged, and broke the girl with three moves. Meng Sisi stepped back and fell backward uncontrollably.
Xu Hang stretched out his hand to pull her, and with all his strength, he pulled him into his arms and held her to stand firm.
The girl’s cheek touched the man’s firm chest, and her cheek immediately became hot, and at the same time, countless fireflies swarmed around.
The little fireflies at the beginning have turned into tens of thousands, just like feeling the Milky Way stars in the vast universe. The two remained in this position and did not dare to move, for fear that any movement would scare away the fireflies.
Meng Sisi whispered, “It’s so beautiful.”
“Ok.”
The girl was looking at the firefly, but Xu Hang looked down at her. To him, this girl is like these fireflies within reach, beautiful and cannot be grasped by hand.
04.
Xu Hang sees Meng Sisi again, she is already a sophomore girl.
Meng Sisi knew that Xu Hang had been in Thailand all the year round, and her father’s business had also developed into Thailand. She went to Thailand to travel, followed her father on the Nuoqin, and went to celebrate Ke Wennan’s birthday.
A lot happened that night, and it was the first time Meng Sisi saw someone shoot.
That night, Xu Hang appeared in her room with his team members, and she instantly understood what Xu Hang was doing all these years, guessing that he had not retired at all and was still performing special tasks.
That night, Meng Sisi had a lot of doubts in her heart.
She wondered why Xu Hang had a relationship with Su Qin, and why Xu Hang was on this ship. When the yacht exploded that night, she was in her father’s room, talking with him.
The father’s bodyguard immediately came in and escorted the father and daughter to the second floor deck to take a lifeboat to escape.
The girl got to the deck, put her father on the lifeboat, and then turned back. Her father asked her to come back, but she chose to ignore it and rushed into the yacht to find Xu Hang.
When she arrived, Xu Hang and the four of them fought together with the Thai soldiers. There are many people on the other side, but Xu Hang and the others do not have an advantage.
Meng Sisi picked up a short blade from the ground and rushed towards the center of the fight, solving two obstacles for them in one breath.
This is the first time in her life that she has fought side by side with a man.
She solved a sneak attacker for Xu Hang and said to him: “Xu Hang, you are really not funny. You don’t call me for this kind of actual combat opportunity.”
Xu Hang frowned and shouted at her: “Leave now! This is not an exercise, hurry up!”
Meng Sisi was also stubborn, “I’m not leaving! You lied to me for so many years, you are so funny, is this what you mean by doing business?”
The girl was fighting against the Thai soldiers, her physical strength was exhausted very quickly, and she was sweating profusely.
The sea water rushed in, like a crucial weight, rushing everyone out more than ten meters.
The sea completely submerged the yacht. A group of them swam out of the yacht, but Xu Hang was dragged by a Thai soldier, and the two fought in the water.
The lack of oxygen in the water made Xu Hang obviously unable to support it. Meng Sisi swam back, plunged a knife into the back of the Thai soldier’s neck, and then swam towards Xu Hang, pulling him to swim together.
Swimming out of the yacht, the two of them surfaced.
Wu Yang threw life jackets for them, and they put on life jackets and floated on the sea.
Meng Sisi held the man’s face, kissed the man’s lips, bit his lips, and asked him with red eyes, “Are you injured? Are the parts still in good condition?”
Xu Hang was blinded by the girl’s kiss, and shook his head dumbly.
Seeing him dazed, Meng Sisi kissed him again: “Xu Hang, listen, I like you, I have liked you for many years. At first they said that my love for you was only temporary and not long-term, but so many years have proved that I love you, Long-term and deep love. Xu Hang, I saved your life tonight, I won’t force you to promise, but I will give you a chance to promise.”
Xu Hang’s eyes shifted on the girl’s face, but he didn’t speak for a long time.
Meng Sisi bit her lip and looked at him: “Why, are you going to give up what I gave you—”
Before the girl finished speaking, Xu Hang kissed her lips.
Meng Sisi wrapped his arms around his neck and began to cater to them. The two of them didn’t care about the vast ocean here.
Wu Yang drove the lifeboat over and interrupted the two: “Do you still want to go ashore? After you get back safely, will you get a separate room for the two of you?”
Xu Hang released Meng Sisi and took the girl into the lifeboat.
After waiting on the fishing boat, Meng Si thought closely followed Xu Hang and fought side by side with him, but the man let her stay in the cabin to take care of everyone in the cabin, just in case.
That night, the gunfire on the deck continued, and the screams of the people in the cabin came one after another, and she kept calming everyone’s emotions.
In fact, that night, Meng Sisi also felt that he might not be able to go back, but Xu Hang and the others used their flesh and blood to build a hard line of defense for them.
The next day back in the city, Meng Sisi met Xu Hang in the hotel according to the address given by Su Qin.
The man was naked and sleepy, apparently just woken up. She squeezed in, closed the door, raised her head and asked the man, “Last night, when you said you wanted to show yourselves, does it count?”
Xu Hang looked at the girl silently.
Meng Sisi was worried that there was a change, grabbed the man’s ears, pulled his head down, and bit his lip.
The man wanted to push her away, but the girl wrapped her legs around his waist and hung her whole body on him, and he couldn’t push her away at all.
The girl put her arms around his neck and said, “Xu Hang, a man has already said a word, and the horse is hard to chase. You can’t escape what you promised. You owe me a life, and you must pay it back today.”
Saying that, he kissed again fiercely.
Xu Hang’s defense line collapsed, and he put the **** the porch cabinet to kiss. Probably because of the collision of life and death last night, the feelings of the two people actually heated up and became inseparable.
The two kissed passionately, and took off their clothes at the entrance.
Xu Hang carried the girl into the bedroom, put her on the bed, and kissed her deeply.
The man pressed against the girl’s ear and said word by word, “Sisi, I’ll give you anything you want, even if it’s my life.”
The girl was under him, and her voice was rarely soft: “I don’t want your life. Don’t you guys know a word of love? I’ll give you a chance to confess to me.”
Xu Hang breathed slightly and kissed her neck: “I like you.”
“No, this level is not enough.”
Jagged tough guy, his voice is so gentle at this moment: “I love you.”
The author has something to say: the next chapter Bai Yu X Tang Jue.
