In the kitchen, Jiang Mei was frying the carp. The squeaking sound of the frying pan completely covered Qu Sen's words in the living room: "Mmm, it's quite comfortable."
As for the whispering between Zhou Li and Li Ying, she couldn't hear it at all.
However, the intensity of the sound waves from Li Ying's violent coughing was enough to reach her ears. After hearing it, she quickly poked her head out of the kitchen and asked with concern: "Yingying, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, it's nothing. I just choked on water." Li Ying hurriedly waved the hand that was covering her mouth at Jiang Mei. Her other hand quickly pulled out a few pieces of paper from the paper box on the coffee table to wipe the water that she had spat out.
"Zhou Li, what are you doing? Hurry up and help." Jiang Mei's hand was in the air, so she couldn't reach out. Seeing her goddaughter lying on the sofa without moving at all, she hurriedly urged her.
Zhou Li was really mad. When she finally calmed down and wanted to fight back against Qu Sen's "humiliation" of her, she could only temporarily stop because Jiang Mei was watching. She reached out and pulled out a few pieces of paper from the paper box and pasted them on Li Ying's nose and mouth. Then, she pulled out a few more pieces of paper and used them to wipe the coffee table.
"You bunch of kids." Jiang Mei didn't know what had happened in the living room just now, but she could guess that there must have been some kind of incentive for Li Ying to "spit out water". However, she saw Qu Sen working on the computer far away from the sofa. In her heart, she concluded that the "troublemaker" must be her goddaughter.
Therefore, after glaring at Zhou Li, she returned to the kitchen to continue cooking.
The moment Jiang Mei disappeared from sight, Zhou Li stood up with a whoosh. She threw the paper in her hand to the ground and rushed behind Qu Sen in a few steps.
Stretching out his right hand, he pinched a piece of flesh on Qu Sen's shoulder and muttered, "I'll make you feel good!"
Zhou Li was really going all out this time. Qu Sen grinned, raised the hand that was controlling the mouse, and patted the back of Zhou Li's hand, saying, "Men and women shouldn't touch each other!"
As a result, Zhou Li went berserk after hearing Qu Sen's words. His two hands began to scratch and slap Qu Sen's back crazily as he muttered, "I'll teach you not to touch men and women! I told you that men and women shouldn't touch each other! I'll let you … "
Perhaps it was because she was a little numb, or perhaps it was because Lady Zhou was so angry that her movements were seriously distorted. Therefore, although Zhou Li's attack was very powerful, Qu Sen didn't feel much pain. His body swayed slightly from side to side, so Zhou Li didn't have to constantly attack one point.
In the small bedroom, Yue Peng had been cooped up in the room for a long time. He wasn't in the mood to do any homework at all. He had been listening attentively to the movements outside.
When Li Ying coughed, he couldn't resist the curiosity in his heart. He thought about it and began to carefully move closer to the door of the room.
When he gently opened the door a crack, stuck his head out, and carefully looked into the living room, he saw his godsister crazily attacking Uncle Qu's back.
Uncle Qu acted as if he was being tickled. Not only did he not dodge, but he also gently shook his back, looking like he was enjoying it very much.
Yue Peng couldn't help but sigh in his heart. "Uncle Qu is a real man!"
Yue Peng, who was admiring Uncle Qu's magnificent back, suddenly saw his mother's figure appear at the kitchen door. He quickly retracted his head and gently closed the door at the same time.
Then he heard his mother shout, "Stop fooling around. Clear the table and let's eat!"
When Jiang Mei's voice rang out, Zhou Li was almost done venting. He hatefully slapped Qu Sen's back again and stopped. He said refreshingly, "Let's go, Yingying. Let's eat!"
When Zhou Li and Li Ying went to set the table, Qu Sen stood up and gently moved his back. When he turned his head, he saw Yue Peng quietly coming out of the room.
When Yue Peng saw Qu Sen looking at him, he wholeheartedly gave him two thumbs up. When the two of them met up, he lowered his voice and said, "How about we call my sister Mei Chaofeng in the future?"
"Okay." Qu Sen nodded and praised, "The positioning is very accurate!"
Jiang Mei prepared a very rich dinner. There were fish, meat, fried, cold, stir-fried, braised, and seven home-cooked dishes with meat and vegetables. There was also a big bowl of hot and sour soup.
After everyone washed their hands and sat down, Jiang Mei didn't say anything and directly told everyone to start eating. Of course, the five of them couldn't just sit there and eat. Chatting was necessary. Li Mei had been in the lead position at the dinner table.
First, she asked about Qu Sen's progress in each subject in detail. Then, she asked about Zhou Li and Li Ying's military exam results.
When it came to the exam, Zhou Li began to pour out his stomach full of complaints. Qu Sen and Yue Peng wanted to laugh, but in order to not become a target, they could only lower their heads and hide it by eating.
Zhou Li complained to Jiang Mei for a long time. From the corner of his eye, he saw someone secretly laughing. He wanted to say something, but considering that Jiang Mei was watching, he could only shut his mouth and vent his anger on the chicken wings in his bowl.
Li Ying saw that there was an awkward silence at the dinner table. She said to Qu Sen, "Qu Sen, when we were practicing the parallel bars that day, I saw you run the 400-meter obstacle course. You ran it casually and it was 1: 28. That's too fast."
Qu Sen was a little embarrassed by Li Ying's sudden praise. He could only say, "It's okay. It's just that in April, I specially trained for a period of time in order to participate in the military region competition."
"You participated in the military region competition?" Zhou Li only told Li Ying about how Qu Sen "bullied" her during the drill.
As for how Qu Sen sent her to the picket team as a spy during the military region competition, she was too embarrassed to mention it. Naturally, Li Ying didn't know about it. Also, when the second class monitor introduced Qu Sen's results to the students on the 400-meter race, his voice wasn't loud, so Li Ying didn't hear it clearly.
So when she heard Qu Sen mention this, she asked, "How was it? Did you get a ranking?"
Qu Sen thought that Zhou Li had already told Li Ying about the dispute between the two of them during the competition, so he just mentioned it. He didn't expect Li Ying to act like she didn't know anything and even ask about his ranking.
How was he supposed to answer this? He couldn't possibly say, "I just ran casually and got first place." That wasn't his style at all, so he didn't know what to say.
Li Ying saw that Qu Sen's expression was a little awkward. She thought that his results during the competition weren't ideal, so she wanted to change the topic. But before she could open her mouth, she heard Jiang Mei say, "Yingying, you still don't know? Qu Sen took first place in the 400-meter steeplechase during the military region competition today. I heard from Da Peng's dad that he ran one minute in the rain … one minute twenty-six, right? "
Jiang Mei's last question was directed at Qu Sen. Qu Sen could only nod his head a little embarrassedly.
"Wow, you're too fierce. I've tried my best, but I can't even run for two and a half minutes. "Li Ying looked at Qu Sen with admiration in her eyes.
Although there were many events in the Military Region Martial Arts Competition and a bunch of champions would emerge after each competition, the value of each individual champion was very high. Otherwise, Qu Sen wouldn't have gotten first place in the 400-meter steeplechase and received a second-class merit when he returned to the regiment. But during the drill, he almost lost half his life and only received a third-class merit.
