Chapter 2 The engagement was annulled
Xia Mi was dragged away by someone, and only when she returned to the warm room did she realize how stupid her behavior was.
Huo Jingchen was stagnant, his eyes without any warmth.
The woman has beautiful features, her palm-sized face is wet, her hair is messy and stuck to her cheeks, and the crystal water drops slide down her plump forehead, all the way to the woman's slender and white neck, and then disappear under her collar.
Xia Mi raised his hand to tuck the broken hair behind his ears, his eyes as cautious as a frightened deer.
"Thank you, comrade, you saved me twice."
Huo Jingchen pulled her lips and chuckled, "No matter how polite you are, I call you husband."
This sentence instantly made Xia Mi's face and ears turn red, like a ripe tomato.
Wouldn’t it be said that people of this era are reserved and even have old-fashioned ideas? Why is this person in front of me not polite at all?
Xia Mi looked embarrassed and explained, "I have to thank you anyway. If it weren't for you, I would have been abducted by human traffickers."
Before he finished speaking, the man answered.
"Yes, I finally saved you, but then I gave you a chance to commit suicide."
Xia Mi took a deep breath and told himself in his heart that the man in front of him was his savior, so he must stay calm.
"You said you came to see your fiancé. Your fiancé is on Zhuifeng Island?" Huo Jingchen thought of what she had just said on the deck.
He has been on Zhuifeng Island for six years and knows the situation on the island. Most of them are aborigines on the island, and there are very few people who come to get married in the city.
There is a high probability that this woman will come to the army to find a fiancé, but there are not many people who can join the army.
Huo Jingchen quickly drew up a list of unmarried gay men who could join the army.
The next second, Xia Mi nodded obediently, looking extremely well-behaved, "My fiancé and I are childhood friends. His name is Yan Yiming. I came here to prepare to join the army."
Facing the person who saved her twice, Xia Mi was defenseless.
This boat was going to Zhui Feng Island. The man appeared here. Based on his appearance and body characteristics, Xia Mi started to guess.
"Comrade, are you also stationed on Zhuifeng Island?"
"It's hard to guess?" Huo Jingchen asked, then smiled, "Yan Yiming, I know him."
But this Yan Yiming is no longer in the army. Due to composition issues and some reasons, he is now just an assistant coach on the island.
Huo Jingchen's probing eyes were like a sharp blade scraping across Xia Mi's body.
"Really? That's so fateful."
Xia Mi's eyes lit up and the corners of her mouth raised slightly, so that she wouldn't have to bother asking around to find out where the troops were.
Huo Jingchen sat upright, closed his eyes and rested, showing no intention of talking to Xia Mi again.
Xia Mi took out the silk scarf from her suitcase and quickly wiped the water on her face and wet hair. She looked delicate and quiet, with delicate and small facial features, and fair and flawless skin.
Every move you make can attract the attention of people around you.
After a long time, the ship stopped at the island, and the captain announced in a hoarse voice, "Zhuifeng Island has arrived. Comrades, get your luggage and prepare to disembark."
As soon as the announcement came out, the place was crowded and started to get lively.
Xia Mi was at the back. She originally wanted to follow the man, but he was tall and had long legs, so she walked to the front in two steps.
The man was very tall, standing out among the crowd at nearly 1.9 meters tall. At this moment, Xia Mi could only see the back of the man's head.
She frowned and gave up on asking him for help.
Waiting for Xia Mi to get off the boat, when her feet touched the ground, her calves felt weak. She had been floating on the sea for a long time, and she was still a little uncomfortable with the sudden contact with the ground.
"Comrade, are you here to see Comrade Yan?"
A marine soldier wearing a 74 white battle uniform with a liberation cap on his head, dark skin, and bright eyes filled with justice.
Xia Mi nodded blankly, "Yes, I'm here to find him." "Then you come with me. The troops are on the other side of the mountain. It will take a lot of time for you to walk there, so take our car there."
Xia Mi thought it was Yan Yiming who had received the news and specially asked someone to pick her up.
Deep down, I felt a little fond of this man I had never met before.
A jeep parked conspicuously in front.
Xia Mi opened the car door and saw clearly the man sitting inside. She was stunned, blinked and looked at the person who called her in confusion.
Zhang Jinjin smiled honestly and explained to her, "This is the first battalion commander of our regiment. It was Camp Commander Huo who asked me to pick you up."
The man sat on the other side and didn't even look at Xia Mi.
Seeing how cold he was, Xia Mi thought about the previous two times and felt that this person probably didn't like her, so she simply stopped talking actively after getting in the car.
[System: Binding is successful, the fishing master system has been turned on, the host can use seafood to exchange currency in the universal mall, and the currency can also be exchanged for RMB or tickets]
There was an electronic sound in the air, and Xia Mi raised his head to observe the reactions of the people in the car.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
None of them seemed to have heard it, especially the man next to him, who had a cold expression and kept staring out the car window.
[System: Host, I communicate with you through brain waves. You can also ask me questions through brain waves. 】
Xia Mi tried to communicate using brain waves, "A fishing expert?"
Isn't this a game?
[System: Yes, host. When you obtain seafood by catching or driving it from the sea, I will exchange it for you into gold coins based on the price or process it into dried seafood for you. 】
Xia Mi's pupils shrank, and her clear eyes were filled with excitement. Wasn't she about to make a fortune? !
Huo Jingchen glanced sideways and caught this scene.
I'm so happy before I meet my fiancé, but I don't know if I can still laugh after meeting and knowing the truth.
As a person of the 21st century and a bookworm for eight years, Xia Mi digested golden fingers very quickly.
As the car drove into the army, passed by the training ground, and finally stopped under a three-story office building.
Huo Jingchen opened the door and got out of the car first. Before leaving, she told Zhang Jinjin, "Take this person to the instructor's office."
Xia Mi was taken to the office and met the instructor of the army.
After hearing that she was here to get married and join the army, instructor Li's face turned pale. After checking Xia Mi's ID and letter of introduction, the hand holding the letter was shaking with anger.
Although Yan Yiming has nothing to do with the army now, he only introduced his daughter to Yan Yiming last week.
His fiancée came to the door today, what kind of thing is this!
"Go and find Yan Yiming." The words were almost forced out of his back molars.
After receiving the news, the guard at the door made a report and ran away.
Li Weimin glanced at Xia Mi, and she was much better than his little daughter who was full of men and had no ambition to make progress.
Yan Yiming, that brat, didn't know how lucky he was despite being blessed, and he almost made mistakes with him!
Soon the guards brought back the news.
"Report to the instructor that Comrade Yan accidentally injured his leg today and is currently undergoing treatment. He asked to tell him that he did not have a fiancée and that the engagement had been canceled long ago. He asked this lesbian not to come again..."
Speaking later, the guard's voice became quieter.
"You are chirping, hurry up!" Li Weimin is impatient, which makes people angry.
"He told this lesbian to stop brazenly pestering her. He also said that she was not the biological daughter of the Xia family and that she was a fake. He said that lesbians were so thin-skinned that they would not hurt others personally."
Xia Mi seemed to be held in place by someone's palm, and these words turned into slaps invisibly, hitting her face again and again.
