Chapter 117 I'll Support You
After explaining everything clearly, the two of them didn't stay long and walked back along the path.
Gu Changgeng noticed that Shen Ning was in a bad mood and wanted to comfort him but didn't know where to start. He had always been a cold and rational person, but after meeting Shen Ning, he became anxious and worried, like a young boy.
"Are you unable to let go of her?
But as far as I know, you and her haven’t known each other for long…”
Shen Ning certainly couldn't explain the bond between himself and Gu Sanya, "Maybe when I see her, I will think of my past self. I always want to help her if I can, and I can't bear to see her being bullied..."
Gu Changgeng listened to Shen Ning's words and thought of the scene when he first met Shen Ning.
At that time, she was skinny, with a shocking wound on her forehead. She looked a little gloomy, and wore ill-fitting, shabby clothes. When she raised her hand, the purple and blue scars on her arms were visible.
Thinking about it now, Gu Changgeng actually felt a pain in his heart, "If someone bullies you in the future, just come to me and I will support you."
Shen Ning was stunned, stopped, and blinked her beautiful almond-shaped eyes, obviously stunned by Gu Changgeng's sudden words.
Gu Changgeng's dark eyes were filled with deep meaning as he stared at Shen Ning without blinking. "I'm a man of my words. You can come to me whenever you encounter difficulties in the future..."
The man in front of him was tall and straight, with a calm aura, like a tall and resolute pine or cypress, giving people an unparalleled sense of security.
But Shen Ning did not notice the deeper meaning in his words. He just felt that Captain Gu was a really good man with a cold appearance but a warm heart.
I also felt that he seemed to look down on me. Am I so useless in his eyes that I can only be bullied?
"Hey, who are you looking down on?
I am no longer the stupid and cowardly person I used to be!
Let alone anything else, I can walk sideways in Hejia Village now!"
The somewhat sentimental and ambiguous atmosphere just now was instantly broken.
Gu Changgeng sighed, looked at the little girl's raised eyebrows and slightly arrogant expression, and couldn't help but chuckle.
If someone else said this, they would probably be scolded by Gu Changgeng.
But the person who said this was a young educated youth who was only as tall as his chest, looked weak and well-behaved, and as delicate as a porcelain doll...
Gu Changgeng suppressed his laughter and said as if he was coaxing a child, "Walking sideways? Well, then you are really amazing."
For some reason, Shen Ning's cheeks felt hot because of his low and hoarse laughter, and he coughed twice to pretend to be calm.
"I...I was just saying it casually. I am a very reasonable and law-abiding citizen."
"Ok, I know."
Gu Changgeng readily accepted the advice and nodded seriously, "You are still a good young man who is brave enough to do what is right and fight against evil."
The dead memories suddenly came back to life. Shen Ning thought of his own immature remarks and was instantly embarrassed to the point of tapping his toes on the ground.
He complained angrily to Gu Changgeng for bringing up matters that were irrelevant.
"Captain Gu should be very busy. Since San Ya's matter has been settled, go back quickly and don't waste time."
Gu Changgeng looked at the educated youth who was getting angry and started to chase people away and found it funny. "Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Even if the army is busy, they should give us a few days off. What could happen?
Comrade Shen Ning, are you just throwing it away after using it, crossing the river and destroying the bridge? Are you so impatient to get rid of people?"
Shen Ning was embarrassed when his little thoughts were clearly pointed out. Gu Changgeng's words made him seem like a scumbag who would turn his back on people.
Just as I was racking my brains to find a decent excuse to get away with it, I saw a jeep parked on the side of the road.
The car window opened, revealing Li Daniu's honest face, "Comrade Xiao Shen, Battalion Commander..."
He has always been as strong as an ox, but today his voice sounded weak and powerless.
Shen Ning looked at his face carefully and asked, "Comrade Li, are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Changgeng immediately took a few steps forward, opened the car door, and held his shoulders, "What's wrong with you?"
Li Daniu's face turned pale from the pain. "It's okay. It's just an old problem. My stomach hurts. It's okay. I'll just bear with it for a while."
Shen Ning frowned, "The clinic is closed. It's too cold outside. Let's go to my house and have something hot to relax."
Li Daniu felt cold all over, but he refused subconsciously, "No, no, that's too much trouble."
Shen Ning's face darkened, "What's the trouble? You're in so much pain..."
Gu Changgeng helped the man out of the car and said straightforwardly, "Let's go."
As soon as he arrived at the yard, Coal Ball barked happily. When he smelled the scent of a stranger, his dark dog eyes showed a bit of vigilance.
Gu Changgeng helped the person into the house, and Shen Ning went into the kitchen, poured a glass of spiritual spring water and handed it over.
"Drink some warm water and see."
Li Daniu thanked him, but his stomach felt as if a knife was stabbed in it, twisting and turning in excruciating pain.
He couldn't eat anything, but he couldn't refuse Shen Zhiqing's kindness, so he took a sip immediately.
The strange thing is that after drinking a sip of water, my stomach, which had been churning and aching just now, seemed to feel a lot better.
Li Daniu thought it was his illusion, so he took another sip. Before he knew it, the whole glass of warm water had gone down his throat, and the pain in his stomach immediately dissipated for the most part.
He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He had drunk a lot of hot water when he had stomachache in the past, but it never had any effect. Today it was strange.
Shen Ning looked at his expression nervously, and when he saw that his face had relaxed a lot and his expression was no longer as painful as before, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned into the kitchen and brought out a bowl of warm millet and pumpkin porridge.
Put it in front of Li Daniu, "Didn't you eat breakfast? Have a bowl of porridge first."
Shen Ning is a good cook. The millet porridge is cooked into a thick consistency. The aroma of rice mixed with the sweetness of pumpkin whets people's appetite.
Li Daniu swallowed and turned his head away, "No, no, we can't just eat the people's food."
Shen Ning was amused by this stubborn big guy, "It's not for nothing, I'll remember it, I'll settle with your battalion commander later."
Gu Changgeng glanced at Shen Ning and stuffed the bowl of porridge into Li Daniu's hand, "Yeah, that's right, eat it quickly."
Li Daniu looked at the two people who had a tacit understanding, and his mind became active. Then he lowered his head and drank the porridge.
Gu Sanya blinked her eyes and hid in the corner. Shen Ning saw her timid look and thought that after the first month of the lunar year, this girl would go to someone else's house.
My heart softened immediately and I waved at her, "Come here, Sanya. Are you hungry? Let's go make dumplings.
Captain Gu, Comrade Li, don't be in a hurry to leave, let's have some dumplings together."
"Okay." Gu Changgeng nodded.
Li Daniu paused while drinking porridge, feeling confused. Is this... this... is this still his battalion commander who is strict in discipline and principles?
Just...just agreed so easily?
He thought the porcelain bowl covered most of his face, and he looked back and forth between Gu Changgeng and Comrade Shen Ning unscrupulously.
He had no idea that the porcelain bowl of porridge could not hide his big face, let alone those two shifty-looking eyes.
Shen Ning suppressed his smile and pulled Gu Sanya into the kitchen.
Gu Changgeng couldn't stand his stupidity anymore, so he kicked Li Daniu under the table helplessly, "Stop looking at me, drink your porridge quickly."
