Ye Jian waved at them and smiled at Lu Xin, “Class monitor, so you weren’t really just all talk about enlisting into the winter army recruitment. You should be in the boot camp at this time.”
Still, soldiers understood soldiers the most; the other students didn’t ask him this.
“I wasn’t assigned to another place. I’m still in Yunnan Province. I didn’t expect that the Company Commander would agree to give me two days off.” Lu Xin, who had been standing straight, replied with a smile; his words seemed a little restrained.
“I don’t think he will agree so simply. New recruits ask for leave when they just joined the army? Class monitor, you couldn’t possibly get two days off so simply.” Ye Jian, who knew the military camp’s system, didn’t believe that it was so simple to ask for two days off. It was already hard to request for off days in the military academy, let alone in army camps.
The Company Commander, who was a little easier to deal with, usually had several wicked secretive ideas to clean up slackers. He had a strong style of doing things. With this kind of strict Company Commander, don’t you even dare to mention taking off days when you, as a new recruit, just joined the army for one month? Do you think that the army is your home, and you can do whatever you want?
Company Commanders like Regiment Commander Liu and Political Commissar Yan were all easy to talk to. Still, no recruit had the courage to ask for leaves two days after joining the army.
“They really gave me two days off. I have asked for leave to go out. If you don’t believe me, look!” Lu Xin looked vigorously, with faint tingling hair; he quickly opened his coat pocket and took out a neatly-folded paper carefully. He said, “Look, there is the Company Commander’s signature on it.”
Seeing that he was so nervous that his forehead seemed to sweat, Ye Jian couldn’t help laughing out loud. This was not like the exquisite class monitor she used to know.
She looked at him for a while, “How come you look like a different person? The recruiting period is not over yet. How can you have changed so much? You’re not like our class monitor.”
When she did not answer, Lu Xin became even more nervous and directly opened the note and handed it to her, “Don’t turn away from the topic. I must show you my leave permit. Look, you see, here… my company commander’s signature; there is also a seal of release, and there is a return time on it. I will have to return to the team before 5 o’clock tomorrow afternoon.”
Ye Jian took a look. His station was really close; it was at the anti-chemical unit where she completed the new recruits training in her second year of high school.
“Hehe, isn’t it very close? I was also surprised when I saw that I was directly assigned to the anti-chemical unit. However, my squad leader said that I may not necessarily be assigned to the anti-chemical unit. It is very likely that I will only be there to complete my new recruits training, and then I’ll be assigned elsewhere after that.”
Lu Xin was relieved to know that she believed it. For fear that the wind would blow away his leave permit, he hurriedly folded it back in his pocket and said, “I don’t know why the Company Commander would agree to give me two days off. I guess it might be my good performance.”
The better the performance, the more strict the team would be. Her class monitor got two days off for good performance. From her experience…after these two days off, her class monitor would be trapped in the special “caring” days of his troop leader.
The poor class monitor still didn’t know the routines of the troop leaders. Anyway, she wouldn’t remind him for the time being; she didn’t want to ruin their gathering mood.
Ye Jian expressed deep sympathy for this.
Lu Xin, who didn’t understand the leadership routines of the army, surely didn’t know what would happen when he returned. He urged, “You go. First, all the girls in our class are here. Zhang Yueyan asked if you were here. So did An Jiaxin. They were quite worried that you might not come.”
He was embarrassed to say that standing with her felt as if he was seeing the Chief. He felt pressure in his heart, even if she was wearing casual clothes.
