rp gaze, she couldn't bear to drink any more. She surrendered first: "Teacher Cheng, just say what you have to say. Don't look at me like that, I'm scared." 。At such a young age, bearing burdens that...Song Jingye is a straight man, he didn't understand the meaning behind her saying she was about to turn 20. He discussed her height and other physical attributes seriously.

Chen Ning could only say, "I'm 8 centimeters taller than the standard." Please download the novel aLoveReadinga to read the latest content.

Seeing her earnestly and seriously answer, Song Jingye couldn't help but chuckle. "It is quite high."

Early this morning, Chen Ning's heartbeat skipped a beat. Most of the people at her school were girls, and the boys were mostly like Xu Hechen: polite and refined.

And Song Jingye, from military academy to the front lines, with his daily training and leading troops, had a healthy complexion and muscles that were tight and defined. Up close, her senses were overwhelmed by the male hormones radiating from him.

She dared not think any further, ashamed to admit that a sliver of fantasy, a longing to embrace him, stirred within her.

Song Jingye has already stepped out to continue training.

When the breakfast horn sounded, Chen Ling ran to the family quarters in the canteen as fast as she could. Song Jingye and the two men under him walked towards them and sat beside her.

Because it's nearing the Lunar New Year, more relatives came to visit than during summer vacation. Most of the relatives who came this year didn't know her. Seeing Song Jingye sitting with her, they asked: "Are you Captain Song's girlfriend"

Song Jingye took it as a joke, too lazy to even retort. He didn't think he needed to stoop to the level of arguing with a little girl.

Chen Ning's heart was about to fly out of her chest. She harbored some secret thoughts and didn't want to clear things up or explain, even if it was a lie, it was enough for her to have a beautiful dream.

A family member sighed: "It's not easy being a military wife."

Chen Ning lowered her head and silently sipped the porridge. She seemed calm and composed, but the trembling of her long eyelashes betrayed her inner turmoil.

Song Jingye looked at her thoughtfully, then said slowly, even coldly, "No, she's a student I sponsor."

This relationship is clearly defined, sharply delineated, cruelly separated, leaving no room for imagination.

After that, he didn't look back at Chen Ling once, and walked away with his empty plate.

Chen Ning still lowered her head to eat the porridge, but her whole body was stiff. She could hear the severity in his tone and the barely perceptible disdain.

Her eyelashes fluttered, a single tear falling into the porridge. She swallowed it; down it went, swallowed again. The taste of the porridge turned bitter, that bitterness swirling on her tongue.

She knew it was an inappropriate thought, a delusion of grandeur. She was merely someone he had saved and supported as a student. Their worlds were light years apart. What right did she have to like him

She finished her meal, silently carrying the plate away as if nothing had happened.

In fact, nothing really happened. He just stated a fact, and only she had an internal collapse.

She even couldn't tell if his words were intentional or unintentional.

But, over the next few days, she realized he was doing it on purpose. He no longer made any private contact with her, and didn't even look at her directly, acting extremely cold.

On the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, the cooking squad was preparing for the New Year's goods. They were slaughtering pigs and sheep. The squad leader was going into town to buy supplies, and someone outside the apartment building in the family courtyard called out to her:

"Xiao Ning, do you want to go to the city with us"

This time when she came back, besides going to the cafeteria for meals, she stayed in her apartment building all the rest of the time.

When the monitor called her, she was studying French vocabulary. It was an elective course for her, and a brand new language. After a semester, she hadn't even grasped the basics.

Hearing her name called, she hurriedly put down her book and ran downstairs.

And just at that moment, she saw the gate of the training field next door slowly open, two military jeeps came out, Song Jingye sitting in the co-pilot seat. Even though her heart was hurting, when Chen Ning saw him, her eyes couldn't help but be drawn to him.

Song Jingye in the passenger seat also saw him standing by the roadside, but he didn't even say hello. He turned his head directly, looking straight ahead with averted gaze, leaving only a cold and resolute profile for her.

The military truck quickly disappeared from sight.

The head of the cooking squad sighed, "Captain Song has gone to the border again for a change of guard duty."

Chen Ling was startled: "Wasn't it just summer that changed"

"He was transferred there on short notice this time."

Chen Ning understood instantly that he was avoiding her.

Actually, there was no need. She had already figured things out these past few days while locked in her small room. She knew exactly who she was and what she was capable of. She wouldn't entertain any inappropriate thoughts anymore.

Riding in the back of a rickety truck from the mess hall, we bounced our way into the city.

The class monitor sighed, "Captain Song isn't easy. He's still young, and when he first came to the army, no one respected his authority. They all thought he got the position because of family connections."

But look, he's only been here for a few years and his reputation is already established. He's in charge of equipment, a relatively easier department, but he trains every day without fail. In the most tiring and demanding places, he's always there. No matter what danger arises, he's the first to rush in.

"The Wuben station is at a high altitude, and the coldest temperature can drop to dozens of degrees below zero. Whenever it gets that cold, he personally leads a team to replace the soldiers on duty, letting them come back to rest."

"He earned everyone's respect through his own hard work, it has nothing to do with his family."

Chen Ning listened intently, her heart swelling with emotion. The more she learned, the deeper her love grew, but she dared not reveal a single hint of it.

But the monitor wasn't blind. He directly said, "So it's perfectly normal for you girls to like him."

Chen Ning's face flushed instantly. Could it be that everyone knew who she liked

"You came back from school in a hurry that day, didn't even put down your luggage, and just stood at the door watching him. Everyone could tell."

Chen Ling's face flushed even redder, wishing she could bury her head into her neck. She murmured softly, "I know I'm not good enough for him, and he doesn't like my type."

The class monitor pondered, "What kind of woman does Captain Song like I really don't know. I haven't seen him show interest in any woman. When people bring up this topic, he always walks away."

Chen Ling couldn't imagine what type of girl he would like. But it's certain that anyone he likes would be especially happy.

This winter vacation, Chen Ling returned to the northwest military base to celebrate the New Year. This marked a turning point in her relationship with Song Jingye. After she returned to school, Song Jingye never contacted her again. She would often send him messages, sometimes on holidays wishing him well, and sometimes sharing important achievements or awards she received at school, hoping to connect with him. However, all her messages went unanswered. He never replied, except for the fixed monthly transfer of 3000 yuan into her account. It was as if he didn't exist.

It very clearly defines her as a financially struggling female college student being supported, without any mention of additional relationships.

Every month, Chen Ling would save every penny of her 3000 yuan stipend. She'd transfer it to a separate bank account. Every year, she received scholarships and the foundation also paid her a monthly salary. Besides, she often participated in debate competitions with Xu Haichen. As long as Xu Haichen was there, they almost always won, which brought in additional prize money. By her senior year, she had saved quite a bit of money and planned to repay him all at once after graduation.I'm just talking about love."”Lu Shaoxing was taken aback. He didn't expect her to say that. Judging from the video of last night's awards ceremony and previous livestreams, it seemed like she couldn'...
