Part Three Chapter 60 Chasing 17

n if his company went bankrupt, she wouldn't mind. But when Lu Kuo said it like that, she became curious about his past.On second thought, since she and Gu Ruandong got together, they never mentioned...She called out to him, with no purpose, just wanting to call his name over and over again.

Without him, she would still be stuck in the mire, trapped in darkness;

Without him, she couldn't see such a beautiful world;

Below her lay a magnificent landscape, above her was the eternal umbrella of her protection.

Her eyes were moist, and she no longer wanted to embrace the mountains. She just wanted to turn around and embrace him.

"Uncle," she called out again. This time, the title wasn't a formal one, but a nickname unique to her heart, belonging only to him.

But in actuality, her voice quickly faded into the air. The Song Jingye behind her couldn't hear it very clearly, but with his acute sense of touch, he could feel the ups and downs of her emotions.

So he tightened his grip on her hand.

The whole process took only a few minutes, and Chen Ling's thoughts had already surged wave after wave. The words she had spoken with Xu Haichen that night, the confusion and hesitation of that night, now became crystal clear.

She wanted to say, just try. No matter if he had someone else in his heart, no matter if it was out of responsibility, she wanted to be with him.

Humility is both weak and incredibly powerful.

Upon landing, Song Jingye enveloped her in a protective embrace, one arm around her and the other manipulating the parachute. In the end, the two of them gently rolled to a stop on the ground.

He reached out with one hand to help her take off the hat from her head.

Her eyes were red-rimmed.

"Surprised" he gently brushed her cheekbone.

He was wearing half-fingered black gloves, and the exposed fingertips felt roughened from wear.

Chen Ning shook her head. It wasn't fear that made her do so, but a decision she had made. She didn't want to fight against herself anymore. She wanted to love him, openly and honestly. Her chest swelled with emotion, and her eyes welled up with tears as she reached out to embrace him, drawing closer. She was just like she had been imagining in the air moments before...

Do the same.

Song Jingye also took off his hat and put his other arm around her. His arms were strong, like a sturdy steel cable, once he had encircled her, she could no longer escape.

They were very close, their faces, which had been chilled by the wind just moments ago, were now warmed by each other's heat.

Chen Ning craved his embrace, needing no words, no further movements, just a lingering sweetness that drifted, intoxicating and bewitching.

But they didn't hold onto each other for too long, because soon other students and instructors came down as well, surrounding them.

Song Jingye let out a light cough before getting up first. Then, he pulled Chen Ling back from the ground and lowered his head to undo the equipment on her body, separating the two bodies that were pressed close together.

Chen Ning's gaze remained lowered as she watched him, his hands encased in a half-fingered combat glove, expertly disassembling the equipment. Even with just one hand, it sent her heart racing.

"Let's gather first, then head back to the city later." His voice echoed, his breath seeming to caress her forehead, warm and soothing.

She blushed, said "hello," and ran over.

The little flame in her heart, lit by her own hand, began to burn.

Xiao ran to where everyone was gathered and saw Teacher Zhang, who was usually so kind, angrily pulling a thin figure off the ground. He roared, "Did you let the dog eat all your safety knowledge"

"Don't drag others down if you want to die."

Chen Ning looked back and saw that the person who had been dragged up from the ground was Xu Haochen.

She had never seen Xu Haochen like this. He was always full of energy and a gentleman, but now, the expression on his face... how to describe it It was as if he had died and come back to life, withered and...

Dazed, he was still staring at the communication watch on his wrist when Zhang's instructor pulled him up from the ground.

Today was the last day of training camp and everyone was jumping out of a plane, so everyone was both excited and nervous. No one really paid attention to each other. Chen Ning realized later that when she saw him this morning, he seemed a bit off.

"What's going on" she asked Tao Kaiyan, who was standing beside her.

Tao Kaiyan: “He seemed to be the last one to jump, and he was on the phone up there. I don't know the specifics.”

But from Zhang Jiao's current angry state, it definitely wasn't a trivial matter.

Here Song Jingye also came over and asked Instructor Zhang what was going on.

Instructor Zhang and he stood at a distance, explaining Xu Haochen's situation.

He's the one we picked from the training group to jump solo. No one's going with him.

"I know." Song Jingye knew about this. Originally, they were selecting two outstanding students to complete an independent parachute jump. One was Xu Haocheng and the other was Chen Linghui. That way, they could also report their achievements to their respective units.

But Chen Ning's return name was stopped by him, so only Xu Haocheng completed the independent jump alone.

"That kid, is he mentally ill" Zhang Jiao said, still shuddering with lingering fear.

At that time, only he and Xu Hachen were left in the cabin.

Xu Haichen sat on the door of the cabin and asked him to make a call home. Instructor Zhang saw that he had been so cooperative with training and was also polite and well-mannered, guessing that he was afraid and wanted to seek comfort from his family, so he agreed and turned on the in-flight internet for him to call.

He dialed the video using the watch on his wrist. Instructor Zhang couldn't see the person in the video, but he could hear...

He called out to his sister.

The wind was fierce, howling loudly.

Instructor Zhang stepped forward, urging him to fight faster. He said:

"Sister, guess where I am standing right now"

His watch face was turned outwards: "Look, there's a precipice right here. Straight down is an abyss."

The voice coming from the video was very gentle, initially calm, but a hint of panic could be heard in the subtle details: "Xu Haocen, what are you doing Get back immediately. Or I'll tell Mom."

"Xu Xiyang, you are so childish. How old are you, and you're still tattling."

"Be good and go down first. We can talk about it when we get home."

"Okay, I'm going down."

Saying that, he leaped into the blue sky and white clouds. Instructor Zhang exclaimed behind him, and the woman in the video also let out an exclamation.

"Speaking of which, Teacher Zhang gasped again and scolded, 'He didn't prepare before the jump, and he didn't check his equipment for the last time. I think he really wants to die. He looked like such an outstanding young man usually, how could he do this' "

Instructor Zhang remembered that after landing, he lay still on the ground, only raising his wrist to show the watch and saying to the person inside, “Sister, don’t be afraid, I’m skydiving, it’s very safe.”

Song Jingye, after hearing Zhang Instructor's words, frowned and looked at Xu Haichen over there. He had gradually returned to his original state and was no longer as dejected as before.

"What should we do with him" asked Coach Zhang.

"This training session resulted in zero points, and I have truthfully reported the score to his unit." Song Jingye has no leniency when it comes to work matters.

Instructor Zhang hesitated a little: "Besides this time, their usual training has been very excellent." Their training camp reports are quite important, and he was afraid that if he reported it like this, it would have negative consequences.

A promising young man.

Song Jingye gave him a cold glance, and Instructor Zhang immediately replied, "Understood."

Everyone here has already gathered and is about to take the bus back to base. From there, we'll head back to the city, marking the end of this training camp.

(Chapter 2, around 10 o'clock)ook, she suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a similar question type in Lu Kuai's notebook before. So she asked Lu Kuai to lend her the notebook for two days, and he generously agreed.In the l...
