Chapter 1610 The Devil King Is Embarrassed
Facing his Captain’s inquiry, Big Shuttle was at a loss of what to do. A matter like this belonged to a girl’s personal affair; how should he tell his bachelor of a captain?
As for the other bachelor, his comrade Big Eel was easier to dismiss; he just said: “Big Eel, go aside, don’t cause trouble.”
“How am I stirring up trouble? I’m just standing here and listening to you speak; I’m not even distracting you. I’m just…” Big Eel didn’t manage to complete his sentence when he received the Devil King’s indifferent gaze. With an extremely quick reaction, he spun backward and walked on, not daring to linger here.
When he left, Li Jinnian’s voice sounded tense: “What’s going on?” Something was wrong with Blue Bird’s body, and it’s so serious that she needed to hide it from her comrades?
Ye Jian was a female soldier; there wasn’t much of a difference when she trained with the male soldiers usually, but now that something was amiss with her body. As the Captain of the unit, it was a given that Li Jinnian would be concerned.
Sending away one bachelor of a comrade, faced with his Captain, Big Shuttle who was still pondering in his heart cleared his throat, and spoke vaguely: “It’s not something serious, Captain, as long as you know it’s not something serious, that’s good enough, Ye Jian can take care of it herself.”
“Then what’s the deal with hot water?” Li Jinnian the Bachelor still didn’t get it until now. It was not because he had a slow reflex arc; instead, he had never encountered a situation like this, which was why he was slow to understand.
Big Shuttle was already married; the 31-year-old guy already had a three-year-old. Naturally, a male soldier who had a wife was more knowledgeable of things regarding women. Realizing his Wise and Brilliant Devil King had yet to understand, Big Shuttle exclaimed: “Devil King, it’s about time you get yourself a girlfriend. Ye Jian isn’t feeling well because of the monthly thing that happens to girls, junior high biology…”
“I understand now.” After that topic was brought up, Li Jinnian immediately understood. With a stiff expression on his face, he interrupted Big Shuttle and spoke with his usual indifferent tone: “Hot water…, I’ll leave that to you.”
Big Shuttle glanced around the area; that’s not easy to solve. You need fire to get hot water, and this place isn’t suitable to make one, “Let’s wait for Ye Jian to bring it up herself; we… will pretend we don’t know about it, to prevent her from feeling embarrassed.”
Pretending not to know was indeed a way to resolve embarrassment. When Ye Jian returned, she noticed her equipment was already on the Devil King’s back; noticing her return, he spoke frankly: “Your complexion doesn’t look too good, so we’ll carry your equipment in rotation.”
He didn’t speak extra words; his business-like tone made it seem like he was telling Ye Jian that the reason behind them doing this was to not affect their marching speed.
Ye Jian, on the other hand, had noticed an odd atmosphere. For example,… when the Devil King was talking to her, his gaze for some reason wasn’t focused on her, instead… he averted his gaze while talking.
That doesn’t seem like the Devil King’s style!
Li Jinnian suddenly felt that he couldn’t stand Ye Jian’s gaze, so he used the excuse of looking down at the time to hide the unnaturalness on his face, “There are still seven more minutes; you should rest for now.”
Finishing that, he turned around and walked away with Ye Jian’s equipment on his back.
Ye Jian narrowed her eyes as she stared at his hurried figure. She didn’t even manage to put in a word, and he immediately left when he finished what he wanted to say; something was clearly out of place.
Her gaze also had a physical presence, especially when she was only looking at one place. Although it was minute and not attacking, a sharpness penetrated into the heart, making Li Jinnian, who was carrying extra luggage to hurry his footsteps even more.
Not knowing was still better. After learning about it, there’s a sense of awkwardness that he didn’t know how to face; let’s take care of her a bit, take care of her a bit when the time comes, to prevent… from showing that he truly was an unreasonable person.
