Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 214 Get in the car
"Hey, when are you going to stop holding on?!"

Ma Qitong didn't care, but the refined man being helped by the old man almost got so angry that his nose crooked.

He hadn't even touched Tongtong's hand yet, so why did that country bumpkin touch it right away?
"Excuse me!"

Upon hearing this, Chang Ning, as if waking from a dream, immediately let go of his hand.

"It's okay."

Ma Qitong withdrew her hand, tucked a lock of hair behind her ear, and whispered.

Her cheeks were as pink and tender as a ripe peach, making one want to taste them.

The old man seemed to see a layer of pink mist surrounding the two of them, and thought to himself that at their pace, it would be a long time before they got down to business.

They still have missions to complete!

You can date anytime, but you can't let it interfere with your work!
"Cough~cough~"

The old man pretended to have a sore throat and coughed repeatedly.

Compared to the old pros, Xiao Zhuang lacks this awareness.

He had completely forgotten about the mission by now; he was happily enjoying his dog food (a metaphor for being single and overly affectionate).

Look left, look right.

Xiao Zhuang always felt that Chang Ning and Ma Qitong were a good match.

"No way! We still have a scout doctor!"

Thinking about how the military doctor and Chang Ning were flirting, Xiao Zhuang suddenly lost interest in their PDA.

If things aren't handled properly, we could make a mistake, and that's a matter of conduct!
"I need to find an opportunity to talk to Chang Ning. Dating is fine, but we can't make mistakes!"

Xiao Zhuang was just thinking about how to start the conversation when he heard Lao Pao coughing beside him.

"Squad leader, you've caught a cold too?"

Seeing that Lao Pao's expression was indeed off, Xiao Zhuang reached out and gently patted the squad leader's back, his expression worried.

He thought Lao Pao's condition was more serious than Chang Ning's, since Chang Ning didn't even have a cough.

"I……"

Xiao Zhuang's behavior almost made Lao Pao swear.

"This kid is usually quite smart, so why is he acting like a fool now? I can't even see what he's looking at."

The old man was quite depressed.

Fortunately, Chang Ning reacted at this moment. After hearing Lao Pao's cough, she calmly asked Ma Qitong, "Can we hitch a ride?"

"No problem, where are you going?"

Before the refined man could object, Ma Qitong readily agreed to Chang Ning's request.

She was just wondering how to spend more time with Chang Ning when this excuse came along.

"Let's go..."

Chang Ning casually mentioned a name.

“Okay, it’s on our way, let’s go there too.”

"Tell your friends to get in the car." Ma Qitong said before walking towards the driver's seat.

"Let's go, get in the car."

Chang Ning nodded to Xiao Zhuang and Lao Pao, signaling them to get in the car.

The refined-looking man standing behind the car felt wronged, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"I was the one who started it..."

"I was the one who met Tongtong first..."

"What do you mean, 'you first' and 'me first'?"

"Get on the bus quickly!"

Seeing the refined man standing still, the old man kindly said something.

From their brief encounter, the veteran could tell that this person wasn't inherently bad, just spoiled by being pampered.

"Let me tell you, in these mountains..."

At this point, the old man paused deliberately, and seeing that he had attracted the attention of the refined man, he continued in a deep voice, "There really are wolves!" As he spoke, the old man even imitated a wolf howl.

The refined man was so frightened that he shuddered, quickly opened the car door, covered his head, and tried to crawl inside.

But when he looked up, he saw the same person who had kicked him, and he didn't want to sit with him anymore.

"Why did you come down? Do you really want to be wolf food?" Old Pao asked.

The refined-looking man didn't say anything, he just grinned at the old man with a shameless grin.

Old Pao glanced at Xiao Zhuang in the car and knew what was going on.

He smiled but didn't say anything. He simply got into the car and sat between the man and Xiao Zhuang, separating the two of them.

They traveled in silence, and by the time they reached their destination, it was already dusk.

There are more Blue Army troops here than in the county town that Changning and his men first attacked.

Everywhere there were patrol teams of Blue Army soldiers. Chang Ning even saw several patrol teams with military dogs from inside the car.

Armored vehicles frequently roar past on the road.

The three people in the car exchanged glances. The supply transfer center they had chosen might be even more important to the Blue Army than they had imagined.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to deploy so many troops here.

Chang Ning silently observed the routes of the Blue Army patrols she encountered on the road, just in case she needed them during the retreat.

They chose an inconspicuous little hotel as their temporary lodging.

Chang Ning didn't say anything when she saw that Ma Qitong had also moved in; it was her freedom to choose where she lived.

Now is not the time to get in touch with Ma Qitong. The timing is wrong, and being too enthusiastic towards her would make him seem suspicious.

Born into such a family, although Ma Qitong was not involved in it, what she saw and heard from childhood to adulthood was probably much more exciting than that of ordinary people.

It's normal for someone to develop some cunning after being exposed to such things, so don't be fooled by her seemingly harmless appearance; nobody knows what she's really like.

After Ma Qitong and the refined man returned to their respective rooms, only Chang Ning and the other two remained in the hallway.

Xiao Zhuang looked at Chang Ning and casually asked, "What are you thinking about? You haven't fallen for that girl, have you?"

"Don't talk nonsense. I just feel like I've seen her somewhere before and she looks familiar, but I can't remember where," Chang Ning said.

"Your excuse is so overused."

Xiao Zhuang, however, did not believe Chang Ning's words, and thought that Chang Ning was just being stubborn.

If you didn't like her, why did you hold her hand and not let go before?

Believe it or not, it's up to you!

Chang Ning could tell from Xiao Zhuang's expression that the guy definitely didn't believe him.

This gave Chang Ning the feeling of wearing fine clothes in the dark.

I've put in so much effort to prevent Xiao Zhuang's tragedy, and this guy is just eating my melon and doesn't even believe me.

This is simply unreasonable!
However, it would be absolutely impossible to let Chang Ning stand by and watch the tragedy unfold.

Even if two strangers encounter an accident, they will definitely lend a helping hand if they can.

Besides, he and Xiao Zhuang had a good relationship; how could he just stand by and watch someone die?

Besides, Xiaoying was a really nice girl; it's a pity she died so young.

"Squad leader, when do we make our move?"

Chang Ning didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Zhuang, so she looked at Lao Pao.

"Let's do it tonight, lest something unexpected happens."

"We've wasted a lot of time on the road. If we stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll miss the time to meet up with the others and make them worry," the old man said after thinking for a moment.

"Still two in the morning?" Chang Ning asked, leaning against the wall.

The old man didn't say anything, he just nodded.

"Hey, why don't you ask for my opinion?" Xiao Zhuang said.

Chang Ning and Lao Pao looked at Xiao Zhuang at the same time, and after two or three seconds, they turned around and went back to their respective rooms in perfect unison, leaving Xiao Zhuang alone in the corridor.
