The dazzling sunlight shone in from the window, and I subconsciously closed my eyes that I had just opened. After relaxing for a while, I finally adapted to the strong sunlight. Is it morning now?
Looking sideways, I saw Lao Tang lying on the edge of the bed tiredly and falling asleep. Seeing that Lao Tang, who had always been strong and strong, actually had a few gray hairs, I felt sad. I really wanted to touch his face, just like when I was a child.
She hugged his neck affectionately and called him daddy...
"Lao Tang..." I called him softly.
Lao Tang slept very restlessly. When I called him like this, he woke up immediately. He opened his tired eyes and looked at me with concern: "Xiaomi...! My dear daughter... you are finally awake! Xiaomi...!"
I laughed silently and tried my best to pull away the corner of my mouth: "Lao Tang! You are still as sensational as ever~ You are not numb anymore, okay?"
Lao Tang wiped his tears and said with a smile: "I'm so happy! Xiaomi...! Do you know how much everyone is worried about you! You know I...I...!"
Seeing Lao Tang's overjoyed expression, I blinked in approval: "Okay... I know you love me! Am I awake now?! Where is Lao Tang... Mi Lan?"
"Milan? You're not..." Lao Tang scratched his head depressedly, didn't this child always call him mom? Why did he change his name again today?
"Could it be that she has never looked at me? After all, I have sacrificed so much for her mission... It's not too much for her to take some time to care about me..."
Listening to my mumbling, Lao Tang took out his mobile phone and dialed Mi Lan's number: "Mi... Mi Lan, Xiaomi is awake! She wants to see you...! Well! Okay, okay!"
After hanging up the phone, Lao Tang stared at me with a distressed expression.
"Lao Tang... what are you talking about?! What do you mean I want to see her? Could it be that she..."
My words were interrupted by a gust of wind rushing in from the door.
"Uncle Tang~ I've brought you food!"
Lao Tang took the thermos bucket from Lao A and excitedly pulled him to the bedside: "Lao A... look! Xiaomi is awake!"
"Xiaomi...! Xiaomi, wake up Xiaomi!" Lao A held my bandaged hand in surprise, tears about to fall from his eyes.
I rolled my eyes at him: "Old A... why are you here?! If you don't repair your chef abroad well, why are you coming back here!"
"What kind of chef is not a chef? Without you Tang Xiaomi, who will I cook for~!"
Lao A's words are quite reliable: "It seems that I didn't train you in vain! Lao A, how did you know that I was injured..."
"At noon the day before yesterday, which is your night here, Yao Chi called me and said that you were injured on a mission and asked me to come back... Anyway, I was worried too much, so I came back... Speaking of Brother Tang,
You performed a mission and ended up like this. You are really sorry for the audience!"
"How do I look now? Am I disfigured?!"
"No, it's just a mummy, no appearance at all~"
"I'll go~"
"Just in time, Xiaomi, I brought porridge to Uncle Tang, why don't you drink some first...?"
"Old A... help me up, I want to lean on you for a while."
With the strength of Lao A and Lao Tang's hands, I lifted myself up little by little and barely leaned on the bed. Lao A carefully placed a pillow behind my back.
"Xiaomi, let me tell you, I am now..."
"Hey, hey, hey..." Lao Tang patted Lao Jia on the shoulder and said provocatively: "When you came here, you never had time to talk. I should do the 'rough work' like feeding... my own daughter.
I feed myself."
"Uncle Tang..." Lao Jia looked at Lao Tang angrily, seeing the porridge in his hand being taken away, but he was unable to resist.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, Lao Tang smiled flatteringly at me: "Come on, good daughter, daddy will feed you..."
While drinking the porridge in Lao Tang's hand, I was thinking about other things. Why, I always felt like something was missing...
Before I had a few mouthfuls of porridge, the door was pushed open again, and this time it was Tie Long, my master, who came in.
"Yo! I'm awake! Okay... Tang Xiaomi! This willpower is strong enough, and he wakes up pretty quickly!"
Looking at Tie Long who consciously sat down on the chair with a smile on his face, my evil factor started to trouble me again: "Master, why am I listening to your words? It's like you wish I couldn't wake up~"
"You kid, how can you think like this! You are our best soldier. Without you, it will be our loss!"
"Thank you for the compliment! I know without you having to tell me that I have always been excellent!"
After listening to my words, Tie Long laughed loudly, which made Lao Tang and Lao Jia also couldn't help but laugh.
"Master! Why are you laughing!"
Tie Long suppressed his smile and looked at me slyly: "This is... the first time I saw a mummy with its eyes open and able to talk!"
"Hmph~!" I snorted coldly: "That's an advantage for you. It saves you money to go to the pyramid to see~"
"Since you are awake and nothing serious, I will give them half a day off and let them accompany you, so that they can prepare for training!"
"Thank you so much! Master~" Thinking of that dream, I looked at Tie Long seriously: "You were the only person in that dream who didn't surround me!"
Tielong looked at me inexplicably, and then at Lao Tang: "Tang Xiaomi, are you dreaming?"
Lao Tang put down the bowl, looked at me lovingly, patted my hand and said to me: "Xiaomi, have a good rest and don't think so much!"
Just as I was about to nod, the door was knocked open. After seeing the person, I finally understood why the door was knocked open~ "Oh, Xiaowei, you've worked too hard!" Yao Chi glared at Xiaowei dissatisfied.
, and didn’t forget to trim his hair.
"No! It was the people behind who pushed it! It's not my fault!" Xiaowei also looked at the people behind him angrily.
"Let me tell you, there is something wrong with you all. If you don't open the handle, you have to knock on the door!" Muzi scolded Xiaowei and Yao Chi with great righteousness.
I saw Xia Xia pushing away the crowd with one hand: "If you ask me, there is something wrong with all three of you! Don't you know the captain is behind you? Why don't you give in?"
Several people stuck out their tongues in shame, then rushed to my bedside, all of them smiled at me with their big, bright faces.
"Xiaomi! You finally woke up!"
"Great! Xiaomi! Someone can protect me again!"
"Xiaomi! You are awesome! If you survive the catastrophe, you will be blessed later!"
Listening to their chirping screams, my head almost exploded, but how could I not be moved by each voice, face, and touching words? These are my comrades, comrades who share life and death.
Just when I was immersed in the joy of meeting my comrades, this woman who was squeezed to the end walked towards me quietly. The comrades consciously made way for her. She wanted to hold my hand tightly.
But he was afraid of hurting me, so he just held it gently and held it in his hand: "It'll be fine when you wake up..."
Seeing this complete stranger showing such touching true feelings, I was a little overwhelmed. I gently took it out of her hand. I looked at her with some confusion. She... was very beautiful, very beautiful.
Wearing it on her body, the feeling of heroic appearance is self-evident. But it is such a face that makes my heart hurt a little. Suddenly, I thought of Mi Lan...
"Dad...where's my mother?"
My words shocked everyone present. Everyone looked at me with strange eyes, confused, surprised, disappointed...
"Xiaomi..." She didn't quite believe it and called me softly.
Looking at the collar badge on her training uniform, I understood. She should be a female cadre at the regimental level. Just now Xia Xia said that she was the captain. Could it be that she is the captain of our Red Eagle Brigade? But why, I have no impression at all...
…
"Xiaomi, don't scare me!" Lao Tang stroked my face through the bandage and looked at me in disbelief: "Xiaomi...she...she is...she is..."
"She is my leader..." I said calmly.
Everyone's eyes, including hers, moved to the collar of the training uniform with three stars on it.
"Xiaomi... Xiaomi, look at me!" She held my face and looked at me calmly but sadly: "Do you really not remember me?"
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, I shook my head honestly.
A crystal tear fell from her big eyes and hit my hand heavily. Even through the thick gauze, I could still clearly feel the heavy weight.
