My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty
Chapter 84 Pit Brother

Chapter 84: Chapter 84 Pit Brother

Even though Gu Beihuai acted selfishly at the time, Tang Chuxia still smiled and said to the person in charge, "He’s just worried about me! He’s not heartless!"

Only then did the person in charge’s expression improve.

Gu Beihuai looked at Tang Chuxia with disapproval in his eyes.

Tang Chuxia just gave him a smile without making any unnecessary actions.

The person in charge wasn’t unaware of Tang Chuxia’s health; for her to speak up, it meant things were getting tricky.

Gu Beihuai watched as Tang Chuxia started to get busy. Even though most of what was dug out from the rubble today were corpses, she still wasn’t afraid to give up.

Compared to the situation from the previous two days, everyone was in a heavier mood today.

The heavy snow and cold weather, coupled with the dense population in this area and the lack of heavy equipment, meant everything had to be dug out manually, making the difficulty imaginable.

There wasn’t any inappropriate noise from anyone on site; everyone was silently doing what they could.

Even people like Hu Mingcheng and Tang Wanqiu didn’t dare to do anything extra at this moment. They obediently worked, but they didn’t dare to get close to the rubble, nor look at the mangled bodies. They could only help with providing comfort to the disaster victims from behind.

Tang Chuxia didn’t mind these matters. Perhaps after two days of exercise, her body had recovered quite a bit. Despite doing more work today, her body hadn’t collapsed.

That evening, just when Tang Chuxia thought she would repeat yesterday’s steps, Tang Jianjun asked her: "Xiaxia, someone wants to see you!"

Tang Chuxia raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t the rescue work the most important thing now? Who wants to see me?"

She looked at Gu Beihuai who had come along.

Gu Beihuai said nothing.

Tang Jianjun said seriously, "Our leader!"

Tang Chuxia: ...

Who?

"You didn’t hear wrong, my leader. He received orders to stay on standby and insisted I bring you to meet him after hearing about you."

It was rare to see a slight unnatural expression on Tang Jianjun’s face. Tang Chuxia was very curious about what kind of situation this leader was in.

She tilted her head to look at Gu Beihuai, and he remained expressionless, not giving any hint.

Tang Jianjun couldn’t stand it anymore: "We’re not from the same military district, nor the same leader. Why are you looking at him?"

Tang Chuxia chuckled, "Second brother, should I praise you hard in front of your leader?"

Her demeanor somehow made Tang Jianjun’s heavy mood from the past few days relax a bit. His sister was still the same sister, not changed by witnessing too much death.

His tone also became a lot lighter.

"Of course, if you can praise, you should!" He spoke quite easily without a hint of embarrassment.

Tang Chuxia nodded with understanding.

"But there’s one thing you can’t say!" Gu Beihuai’s voice reminded Tang Chuxia as she looked at him.

Tang Jianjun also looked at Gu Beihuai, waiting for what he had to say.

"He’s likely to invite you to join the military. Consider it carefully. If you haven’t thought through where you want to go, it’s best not to get pulled in too quickly!" Gu Beihuai glanced at Tang Jianjun, "Their leader is quite the master of rhetoric!"

Tang Jianjun: (⊙o⊙)...unable to find a rebuttal.

Tang Chuxia laughed.

So this leader is so intriguing.

"Well, if I have any thoughts, I’ll consider Brother Beihuai first." This period’s reflex had her giving Gu Beihuai a sweet smile.

Tang Jianjun didn’t know, and almost jumped on the spot.

"What’s going on? The two of you wouldn’t be..."

His expression of shock and horror almost betrayed his control.

Tang Chuxia teased him on purpose, "What if it’s just as you think?"

Tang Jianjun raised his hand to hit Gu Beihuai, and Gu Beihuai gave Tang Chuxia a warning look, only speaking when the fist was about to hit his face: "Do you think that’s possible?"

The fist stopped a centimeter from Gu Beihuai’s face.

After a second’s pause, Tang Jianjun released his fist and patted Gu Beihuai’s shoulder: "Sorry, forgot you’re little Huai!"

Gu Beihuai gritted his teeth.

"Little Huai, don’t get mad at your brother. We have to be cautious when it comes to Xiaxia’s matters!"

Tang Jianjun turned and flicked Tang Chuxia on the forehead, "Don’t joke around like this in the future, second brother’s heart isn’t good!"

Tang Chuxia chuckled twice.

You don’t believe the truth, but you believe the lies.

She thought she would definitely set him up in the future.

While they were talking, the three of them had already arrived in front of Tang Jianjun’s leader.

Unexpectedly, Father Tang and Madam Tang were also there with Tang Jianjun’s leader.

"Is this Xiaxia?"

A burly man, with a combat uniform that was somewhat dusty, but in great spirits and a voice as loud as a bell, clearly someone with years of training.

He was staring intently at Tang Chuxia.

Tang Chuxia guessed this was her second brother’s leader and obediently nodded, "Uncle’s sharp-eyed as always!"

The man laughed heartily but soon realized where he was, immediately stopped, coughed lightly, and adjusted his mood, "This kid knows how to talk. I like her, much better than your second brother!"

Tang Chuxia tilted her head to look at Tang Jianjun, "Uncle, did my second brother cause you a lot of trouble in the military? Did he often make you stomp your feet in anger, wishing to break his leg with a stick and sew his mouth shut?"

The man was momentarily stunned, then vigorously nodded.

"Right, right, right, as expected, family knows best. I thought you’d praise him, but I misunderstood!"

The leader’s reaction made Father Tang and Madam Tang a bit awkward.

After all, they were talking about their son, but Tang Chuxia wasn’t wrong.

That’s exactly how Tang Jianjun was.

Tang Jianjun wouldn’t let it slide, "Xiaxia, I’m your biological second brother!" Saying this, he moved to discipline his not-so-obedient sister, only to be pushed aside by a big hand from the leader.

"Why? You dare bully her in front of me?" The leader asked Tang Chuxia, "Does your second brother bully you at home too?"

Tang Chuxia, seeing her soon-to-be-twisted second brother, nodded without hesitation, not showing the demeanor of an obedient sister; instead, she expertly set up her brother.

Gu Beihuai, standing on the side, also got an eyeful and looked at Tang Jianjun with some sympathy.

Tang Jianjun hurriedly defended, "Leader, don’t listen to Xiaxia. How would I dare lay a hand? This girl’s health is fragile, I don’t even dare touch her, let alone bully her, how would I bully?"

Tang Chuxia hid beside the leader, "Uncle, see that? Only guilty people defend themselves. Look at Brother Beihuai beside me, calm as an experienced dog, not worried at all!"

Gu Beihuai: ... What’s it got to do with me?

Calm as an experienced dog?

Describing him?

"Pfft— calm as an experienced dog? Little Huai, I just learned from today that this phrase suits you!" Tang Jianjun laughed unkindly.

Gu Beihuai gave him a strange look, and everyone else was watching him.

Tang Jianjun slowly stopped smiling, having realized one thing...

"Tang Chuxia, you set me up!!!"
