3049 Special Comfort
Qin Xiu wasn’t given much time to think about the woman he liked. There might be another negotiation tonight. After a short moment of rest, he didn’t even manage to have dinner. Qin Xiu started preparing for the next round of negotiations.
This concerned China’s foreign trade. Personal matters were put aside first. National affairs were the most important thing.
It had been 19 hours since Ye Jian and the rest arrived at the airport in the capital city. As the timezone was five hours earlier than Estonia, it was five o’clock when they arrived at the capital city.
There were no flowers or applause. There were no reporters or media surrounding them. There were only comrades greeting them. Just like when they went overseas, they also came back amidst silence.
“Fellows, you’re amazing. When we received Major General Yang’s call, the entire team was in an uproar. When we were having our morning exercise, we shouted louder than before.”
V8 hugged Sparrowhawk tightly. Not only did he hug him, but he also punched Sparrowhawk’s back. He was so excited that his eyes were red.
Amazing! They actually competed with the Western countries and got into the top five.
Sparrowhawk coughed repeatedly. “You don’t dare to hug the captain, so you hugged me and hit me, huh? You’re too vicious. Let go of me!”
“Don’t say it out loud. Let me hit you a few more times. I got so excited by the news that I broke the iron bed in the dormitory. I spent all night welding the bed back together. That thing was so difficult to weld! It took me an entire night to weld it.” V8 took the time to hit Sparrowhawk a few more times. Last night, he shook the bed until it fell apart, but he didn’t manage to vent his excitement. Now, he hugged his comrades and hit them a few times. He felt much better.
Sparrowhawk cursed in a low voice. He punched back a few times and said in a low voice, “Fortunately, I didn’t disappoint you. If not, you would’ve stabbed me instead of hitting me.”
“Hahaha, you’re right.” V8 finally let go of Sparrowhawk. He secretly wiped his eyes to stop the tears that were about to come out. It was… embarra.s.sing to cry like this!
He wiped his tears and said, “You’re right. I really don’t dare to hug him. He threw me once. The memory is still fresh.”
Back then, he had just completed a huge task with the new captain and couldn’t control his emotions. He pounced over and hugged the captain who had fought with him for the first time. In the end, he was thrown back by him, and the impact almost shattered his tailbone.
That was the only time. After that, he didn’t dare to pounce on him anymore.
Sparrowhawk, whose eyes were red, punched V8’s chest again.
On the other hand, J5 and Xia Jinyuan gave each other high-fives. J5’s eyes were red too, and his expression was happy. His voice was a little hoa.r.s.e as it floated into everyone’s ears. “With you leading the team, we never suspected anything. You didn’t disappoint us! Welcome back, Captain.”
“Won’t I be a failure if I make you suspect me?” Lieutenant Colonel Xia raised his eyebrows. His reply was arrogant, but it was also a show of his ability.
J5 agreed and nodded. “That’s right. That’s why you won’t ever fail. However, Captain, if you really fail, we won’t say much. At most, we’ll say behind your back that you’re usually so arrogant but you were taught a good lesson overseas!”
If outsiders heard this, they would probably take it seriously. However, Xia Jinyuan was their captain. He understood every comrade. What J5 said was true. He was just reminding him not to feel so pressured. Even if he really failed, his comrades wouldn’t say anything.
They had gone through thick and thin together. This was their way of consoling.
