She's a Bit Careless
"He wants to see you, but I haven't agreed yet. I just told him I'd try to contact him." Huaijun said. "I don't know what mission you're on, and it's not my place to ask. You don't have to see him if it's not convenient for you."
"Mission … …" Lin Yi smiled bitterly as he rubbed his nose. "I really don't know what's going on with this mission, I don't even know where it's coming from … … How could I not meet your savior? Of course I'll see him. "
"Hm? Don't force it … … "Huaijun said, touched. He knew that Lin Yi wasn't the type to get involved in other people's business, and Lin Yi wouldn't have the time to meet a stranger if it weren't for him.
"What's there to force it … … I've got nothing better to do anyway." Lin Yi said with a smile. "Plus, I have you as my backup, it'll be easier for me to do things in Songshan … …"
"Alright then, you set a time." Huaijun said, not bothering to waste words with Lin Yi. There was no need for words of thanks, it'd be too cliché.
"Tomorrow? Tell Zhifeng that he wants me to go to the police station to make a statement, I'll be able to get away that way. Otherwise, it'll count as me skipping school, I don't want to … … "Lin Yi said as he pointed at the door.
"Alright, I'll go talk to him later." Huaijun nodded. It was a small matter.
"Oh, right, I forgot what I was supposed to be doing. I made you some medicine, drink it when you get home. Your body'll feel a lot better after the first stage, and I'll give you the second stage medicine. You'll be back to normal in about three months." Lin Yi said.
"Three months?" Huaijun froze as he stared blankly at Lin Yi.
"If it's fast, it'll take at least two months." Lin Yi said, assuming that Huaijun thought it was too long. "The herbal soup isn't too tasty, but you'll have to bear with it for two months … …"
"Lin Yi, you're not joking, are you? My body'll be back to normal in two months? Like a normal person? "Huaijun was getting a little excited." Seriously? The doctor said that it's already a blessing that my condition hasn't worsened, but I can actually recover? "
"Ugh … so you aren't afraid of drinking medicine?" Lin Yi smiled. "You still don't believe my words?"
"I do! Of course he believed it! It's just too shocking! "Huaijun was truly shocked, but he trusted Lin Yi's words. On the battlefield, there had been many times when the enemy was about to catch up to them, but it was all because of Lin Yi's correct judgment that they were able to escape from danger, and then turn around and kill the enemy … Therefore, Lin Yi's prestige in the team was unparalleled. Lin Yi's words were also carried out by the team members without reservation. "You brat … I'm afraid of drinking medicine? He did not even feel a bullet hitting his body, so why would he be afraid of drinking Chinese medicine? Are you mocking me … "
"Ah … That's not necessarily true. I've seen some fearless people before, but they're afraid of injections and medicine …" Lin Yi smiled. "Come with me to the classroom later. I'll get it for you."
"Captain, you're so awesome!" Huaijun couldn't find the words to describe the joy he was feeling right now. He'd thought that every day of his life was worth it, and that he'd be able to live until the day the painkillers and massages stopped working. He'd be able to die at that point, but Lin Yi was able to cure it!
Lin Yi was like a god in the team, but Huaijun couldn't hide the shock he felt. Lin Yi definitely wasn't that old. If he wasn't wrong, he should be around the same age as Ning, seven or eight years younger than him. Yet, he seemed to be able to do everything. Where did he learn all this from?
"To be honest, I kind of miss those days, the rain of bullets every day …" Lin Yi said, a little emotional when he heard Huaijun call him captain.
"Yeah, there's also Ning … …" Huaijun stopped abruptly as he realized that Lin Yi's face had darkened at the mention of that name … …
"Let's not talk about that …" Lin Yi sighed. "The past is the past."
"But … Ning's still asking about you … I …" Huaijun said, his heart aching for Ning, but he didn't want to go against his captain's wishes.
"Then tell her that Eagle's dead." Lin Yi said faintly, a trace of sadness in his eyes. Indeed, he had already returned an identity. Every mission was a chance for him to be reborn. Once the mission was over, his life would come to an end.
"But …" Huaijun was about to say something when Lin Yi cut him off.
"Just tell her that the next time you see her." Lin Yi said. "Long term pain is better than short term pain. You know very well that we're not meant for each other, and I might die one day. You don't want her to be a widow, do you?"
Huaijun lowered his head helplessly. Lin Yi was right- his life was more dangerous than his job as a police- Lin Yi was a god of war, but who could guarantee that a god of war wouldn't die?
"Then you and Song from our team … …" Huaijun said, remembering Lingshan all of a sudden. Lin Yi's relationship with Lingshan was pretty ambiguous.
"Would you believe me if I said I had nothing to do with her?" Lin Yi smiled bitterly. He didn't think that Huaijun would've heard about what happened at the hospital- news traveled a little too fast.
"Alright, I believe you." Huaijun nodded. "But from a professional standpoint, you two are quite a good match. She's always on the frontlines, sticking herself to the most dangerous places …"
"Haha … I can tell, she's a bit of a tiger." Lin Yi said with a smile. "She's actually quite cute. What, you're not going to consider her?"
"The age difference's too big, and she treats me like a big brother. Wouldn't it be dirty of me to have any thoughts about her?" Huaijun said with a smile. "Plus, my marriage … It's not up to me to decide. You know that now that I've transferred, my family's treating me as a part of their plan. They'll probably arrange a blind date for me next year or so."
"Let's go, I'll get the medicine." Lin Yi said as he walked towards the door. Huaijun quickly followed.
Wang Zhifeng didn't go far. He waited quietly at the window at the end of the corridor. Seeing the door of the Academic Affairs Office open, Wang Zhifeng walked over quickly. "Captain Yang, how is it? What's the matter?"
"It's cleared up, it's nothing- Lin Yi was just defending himself. He'll go to the police station tomorrow to fill in his statement." Huaijun said with a nod. "I'm going to his class with Lin Yi to get some materials. You don't have to go, Mister Wang."
