Chapter 40
As June enters, the Imperial City becomes hotter. Walking on the concrete street is like walking in a hot and baking desert.
The "Our Flag" column team has successfully completed the program production and is just waiting for it to be broadcast online during the summer vacation.
On the day we finished work, everyone had dinner together.
The director particularly praised Song Ran at the table. Although several reporters were interviewing and filming popular military figures at the same time, Song Ran was always able to unexpectedly start with the details and discover the touching stories behind the characters, getting rid of the stereotypes and adding many interesting or touching subplots.
Little A praised: "Song Ran looks introverted and gentle, but he is patient and sharp when doing things. It is so comfortable to work with you. Why don't you come and work here."
Song Ran smiled: ¡°I¡¯ve been resigning for too long and I¡¯m used to being lax, so I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to adjust well.¡±
More importantly, she is about to start writing "The Floating Century".
She declined politely, and no one stayed. After all, she has a good reputation and it would be better to be a freelance journalist.
Everyone sat around the table and chatted while eating.
During the dinner, someone mentioned the reality show "I am a Military Trainee" on Liangcheng TV. That show is very popular recently. The stars receive military training in the army, and the instructors strictly discipline the spoiled stars.
Little B complained: "In recent years, the entertainment industry has been all about sensationalism and clich¨¦s!"
Song Ran watched that program at home. Among the instructors were Li Zan¡¯s teammates, and Shen Bei¡¯s name was at the end of the film.
She was inexplicably alert and sent a message asking if Li Zan participated in the show. Li Zan replied no.
"Why don't you go?"
"Not interested in."
Song Ran was struggling when Li Zan sent a message: "Do you want to ask Shen Bei?"
He was so magnanimous, and she simply pointed it out: "I'm afraid she will chase you again."
Li Zan replied with three words: "We have a master."
He rarely says such things. She blushed, but kept pushing further: "It's not okay for a celebrity to chase you."
Li Zan said: "Are you trying to catch a thief? A bunch of people are chasing me."
Song Ran chuckled, and the matter was over.
Thinking of this, Song Ran couldn't help but smile.
Beside me, the director clicked his tongue while watching the news on his mobile phone. It said that the extremist organization went on a killing spree in Su Rui City in the central part of the Eastern Kingdom, beheading hundreds of government prisoners and civilians. They also dragged three Cook soldiers behind the car and drove them hundreds of kilometers through thorny terrain, and tortured them to death.
Song Ran shuddered as she felt like there were thorns all over her body.
Little C asked angrily: ¡°Are these terrorists raised by animals?¡±
Li Zan had just finished taking a shower when he saw the news.
He stood in front of the window and looked at the mountains and forests. In early June, the vegetation on Luoyu Mountain was lush and green.
The phone suddenly rang, it was from the United States.
Benjamin didn¡¯t beat around the bush and said straight to the point: ¡°Lee, do you want to join the Cook Armed Forces?¡±
Li Zan has always paid attention to it.
At the end of last year, a non-governmental armed force emerged in Dongguo, code-named Cook, specializing in targeting terrorists. Many former special operations soldiers of the government and anti-government forces and international mercenary volunteers have joined.
Li Zan pursed his lips and said: "I am an officer and cannot join other armed forces. Besides, I cannot go abroad freely, except to the United States for medical treatment."
Benjamin said regretfully: "I wish I could fight alongside you. Now there are many sniper commandos armed by Cook, but excellent demolition soldiers like you are scarce."
On the side battlefield, Li Zan's commonly used bomb disposal skills can save people, but on the front battlefield, his blasting technology is the most lethal weapon.
After putting down the phone that night, Li Zan found Chen Feng and talked about it.
Chen Feng frowned when he heard this: "You are crazy. You are a Chinese soldier. How could you go to fight in another country? Don't even think about it!"
Li Zan said nothing, lowering his eyes and thinking about something.
Chen Feng saw his thoughts at a glance and said angrily: "Even if you find an excuse to go to the United States for medical treatment, I will go with you."
Li Zan raised his eyes to look at him.
"A-Zan, don't be stupid. If you go to the United States and go to other countries on the way, you will have to go to a military court! Unless you will never return to the country in your life. Your father doesn't want it? Does your girlfriend want it?"
Li Zan¡¯s expression was indifferent and he didn¡¯t speak.
Chen Feng poked him in the forehead with his finger: "I said you are usually kind and easy to talk to. Why do you dare to think of such nonsense?"
Li Zan leaned back in his chair and said, "Then you approve my application and let me go to peacekeeping."
&nbnbsp; "" Song Ran asked, "You also want me to find a second-generation official and a second-generation rich man?"
Ran Yuwei put on lipstick and looked at her: "I hope you find someone who truly loves you and won't betray you." She said, "You can be hurt a lot, but don't be hurt by love."
Song Ran was startled.
Ran Yuwei carried her bag and went out.
Song Ran followed her, and for some reason, she suddenly remembered Ran Yuwei's lonely and even self-deprecating look at the dinner table just now when she heard the story about A-Zan's father.
Her heart suddenly stung.
¡¡
Arriving at the underground parking lot, Ran Yuwei said to Li Zan: "From now on, when you come to the Imperial City, you will stay at home, don't live outside."
Li Zan said: "Thank you, Auntie."
Song Ran¡¯s eyes lit up at Li Zan, and she trotted forward to hug Ran Yuwei, whispering: ¡°Does he live in my room?¡±
Ran Yu rolled her eyes slightly: "What a beautiful idea."
Song Ran shook off her hand and thought: It¡¯s better to stay in a hotel.
Li Zan stayed in the guest room that night.
Late at night, Song Ran tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so she sent him a text message: "Is your door locked?"
"No."
In the dead of night, Song Ran sneaked through the living room barefoot, and the cat went to the guest room and opened the door. Li Zan waited behind the door, fished her in, and closed the door very gently.
Song Ran stood up on tiptoes, hugged his neck, and kissed his chin.
He laughed silently in the darkness, kissed her eyes, nose, and lips, and gently held her on the bed.
Song Ran wrapped her arms around his waist and rolled into bed.
Kissing, touching, hugging, going deep, everything is done patiently and silently. There was only the sound of sheets tangled. Taboos make people extremely sensitive, and Song Ran arrived in a short time. Inside the squirming air-conditioned quilt, heat evaporates bit by bit, and the skin heats up once and for a while. The heat overwhelms the cold wind of the air conditioner, and the air also surrounds the person.
In the silent night, there are hidden forces and sounds.
Until the trembling breaths, the friction of skin, the sound of fabric popping When everything returned to complete calm, he panted, slowly lowered his body, and got close to her.
She opened her mouth, and the last trace of air in her chest was squeezed out by him.
He kissed her wet eyes and stroked the sweaty hair on her temples.
In the dark night, Li Zan's eyes were clear and bright, looking at her deeply.
Song Ran's body was still feeling empty after trembling. She looked at him and suddenly asked softly: "A-Zan."
"Um?"
"One day, will you betray me?"
"Won't."
"You won't leave me behind, will you?"
"No." He said, his condescending eyes dark and calm, "If I abandon you, let me be shot."
Song Ran was stunned for a moment, but the next second he covered his mouth and smiled: "What age has it been, how can we break up and be shot."
Li Zan said: "Then he will be shot to death on the battlefield"
Song Ran stared and slapped him in the mouth.
He is a very sincere person, so she shouldn't have said this.
Li Zan smiled slightly: "I don't know how to do it, so what are I afraid of?"
"You're not allowed to say it anyway." Song Ran said unhappily, "Touch wood."
In their place, if you say something bad, you can resolve it by touching wood.
Li Zan smiled helplessly, raised his hand and touched the wood of the bedside.
Song Ran got into his arms again, and after a long time, she said, "A-Zan, even if we are separated one day, I won't want anything to happen to you."
Li Zan squinted his eyes and motioned towards the bedside.
Song Ran obediently reached out of the quilt and touched the head of the bed, giggling.
Li Zan lay down next to her, suddenly raised his head, listened for a while, and said, "Your mother seems to be coughing."
Song Ran was surprised: "You won't be discovered, right?"
Li Zan judged for a moment and said, "I heard her coughing before you came."
"She had the flu in the winter and had a cough during the Spring Festival, but she obviously got better after that."
"Let her go to the hospital for a check-up. She will get bronchitis if she waits for so long. Besides, I feel that your mother's complexion is not very good, so she is hiding it with makeup."
¡°Then you go to the hospital tomorrow and I¡¯ll ask her to come with you.¡±
"also."
The next morning, Ran Yuwei went to work early, but Li Zan and Song Ran did not meet her.
The military doctor said that Li Zan¡¯s ears are recovering well, but they must pay attention to protection.
After coming out of the hospital, he went directly to the airport.
Song Ran sent him to the departure gate, and then they were separated for three months, and they were very reluctant to part with each other. Li Zan held Song Ran in his arms and talked for a long time by the floor-to-ceiling window. He didn't go in until it was forty minutes before boarding.
Song Ran waited outside the line, watching him walk past the security gate and turn around to wave to her. She immediately stood on tiptoe and waved, and then disappeared from sight.
