Chapter 90: Chapter 23 Despicable, Shameless, Filthy

Watching as Chen Xuan was carried away,

Shao Changfeng also hurriedly left.

But ahead were Zhang Jingyue, Na Feng, and Zhao Yi, who clearly were in cahoots. Especially Zhao Yi’s hatred towards her—

He was eager to take advantage of her exhaustion to give her a good beating.

Running ahead of them were three people, two female soldiers, and one male soldier. By Gu Xiaoxi’s side, there were only three female soldiers, with Li Chun barely hanging on to her last breath, effectively contributing no fighting power.

"Damn it! Why didn’t I just faint? Gu Xiaoxi, I can’t do this anymore. You can’t blame me for letting you down; just run ahead yourself! I’m not running anymore." Li Chun slumped to the ground motionless, like a lifeless snake.

Qin Chu collapsed beside her, rolling her eyes, "Look at you, a dead weight that can’t be propped up. I’ve been supporting you, and you even dare to pretend to faint. With how you are, if we were on a mission, we couldn’t even save the hostage. We’d have to save you first."

"That’s right, those who give up halfway will drag their teammates down. You’re our teammate. If you act like this in combat, you’ll get everyone killed," Song Jingyi also chimed in encouragement. However, her words were somewhat harsh.

But the logic was sound. If one didn’t possess incredible stamina, once injured on the battlefield, they might give up on escaping. Has she considered that if she had comrades, they would absolutely not abandon her, and her giving up would be a burden to everyone?

Gu Xiaoxi was also exhausted beyond measure, the likes of which she had never experienced before. She was carrying her pack, bending over, propping her hands on her knees, gasping for air, with sweat from her forehead constantly dripping down.

She looked at Li Chun, her dark eyes filled with determination, "Listen clearly. As long as you have a breath in you, giving up on life is shameful. As a soldier, not only must you save others’ lives, but you also have to save your own. If you can’t even save yourself, what right do you have to step onto the battlefield to save others?"

Upon hearing these words, Li Chun’s expression changed. She swallowed hard, then a fighting spirit ignited in her eyes, and she slowly climbed up from the ground, saying to Gu Xiaoxi, "I will hang on to the very end. As long as I have a breath in me, I will bravely strive to live on."

From Gu Xiaoxi, she understood a principle: the reason why the strong are powerful is not innate; it has nothing to do with status, glory, money, or power.

Some people, they can impress you in every aspect of life. She is proud, for she has the capital to be proud.

She is ruthless, with aspirations that disdain the world.

It seemed, as long as Gu Xiaoxi was there,

she naturally filled with fighting spirit towards life, and her heart also blazed with fervor.

Li Chun sprang to her feet and started running at the front.

Gu Xiaoxi wiped the sweat from her forehead, forced to admit that everyone has potential which can be brought out under pressure.

Song Jingyi clicked her tongue, "Damn, with that speed, I’m afraid even I can’t catch up now."

Qin Chu smiled, watching Li Chun’s advancing steps, and said, "We supported her for quite a while just now, she must have gathered some strength. Let’s go, don’t let her get too far ahead of us, it would be too embarrassing."

Gu Xiaoxi straightened up and walked slowly forward, damn, she was so hungry! She felt like her back was sticking to her chest, but she still had to keep going.

She looked back but didn’t see Shao Changfeng; he was probably still at the medical room with Chen Xuan and hadn’t returned. The platoon leaders had been dragged to the back by those slower ones.

There was a turn not far ahead, and soon, Li Chun disappeared from the trio’s sight.

Gu Xiaoxi was fraught with frustration.

Giving others encouragement is fine, but who’s going to cheer her up? She’s exhausted, too.

Damn it!

"Hurry and run! Don’t let Li Chun bump into Zhang Jingyue, or she’ll be in trouble," Song Jingyi reminded.

With those words, Gu Xiaoxi’s expression darkened. She kept looking back but still, no sign of Shao Changfeng.

It seemed a confrontation with Zhang Jingyue was inevitable.

Gu Xiaoxi and her group picked up the pace to catch up with Li Chun.

Just as they turned the corner, they heard a scream from Li Chun.

It rang especially clear to Gu Xiaoxi.

She immediately looked up and saw, not far ahead by a small mound of dirt, Na Feng and Li Chun entwined in a scuffle, rolling on the ground. Perhaps too exhausted to engage in combat, they resorted to pulling each other’s hair.

Zhao Yi stood by shamelessly, kicking Li Chun with his foot.

Zhang Jingyue stood to one side, watching coldly.

Gu Xiaoxi, Song Jingyi, and Qin Chu watched with eyes reddened by anger.

"Fuck! They’re bullying Li Chun. Goddammit Zhao Yi, are you even a man?" Song Jingyi cursed furiously. It was one thing for two women to fight, but for this man to join in bullying a young girl was another.

Qin Chu, cap in hand and with purposeful strides, clenched her fists, a suppressed fury in her eyes.

Gu Xiaoxi picked up a few small stones from the ground, clutched them in her hand, and stepped forward as well.

"Let go of her!" Song Jingyi lunged forward, trying to pull Na Feng off Li Chun.

Instead of being pulled away, Na Feng, like she was crazed, slapped Song Jingyi across the face.

Song Jingyi then went ballistic, joining the fight, making it her and Li Chun versus Na Feng alone.

When Zhao Yi saw this, he moved to help, but Qin Chu stepped directly in front of him.

Qin Chu snorted contemptuously, her eyes flickering with disdain, "The thing I despise most is a cowardly and despicable man like you. You should have been kicked out of the army last time; I can’t believe they let you stay."

"You bitch, how dare you curse me?" Zhao Yi snapped, immediately tossing his backpack to the ground and rolling up his sleeves.

"Bitch, who are you calling out?" Qin Chu retorted coldly.

"Bitch, you!" Zhao Yi shouted angrily.

Qin Chu laughed out loud, staring at Zhao Yi, "Good, now I know. It’s ’bitch’ calling me out. At least you have some self-awareness. But three words aren’t enough to describe you, let me add three more: despicable, shameless, sordid."

"You!" Zhao Yi realized too late that he had been tricked by Qin Chu’s words and was insulted in return.

Gu Xiaoxi’s mouth twitched, normally seeing Qin Chu as reserved and serious, but now she found her insults to be strikingly eloquent and apt.

At that moment, Zhang Jingyue faced Gu Xiaoxi, gripping her weapon tightly. She could no longer hide the jealousy and rage in her eyes.
