Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 413: Chapter 439: Quickly Settled

Yan Kai started pursuing Qian Xiaoshuang. When he got enthusiastic, it was crazy—he’d wait outside her workplace every day to pick her up after work and occasionally give her some tasty treats the unit provided.

Of course, Qian Xiaoshuang didn’t want them, but no matter how cold she was, he always wore a smile and followed her, maintaining a respectful distance.

Yan Kai was naturally witty and eloquent. Initially, Qian Xiaoshuang ignored him, but over time, she’d occasionally exchange a few words. Overall, she still treated him coldly, feeling awkward, as she’d never noticed his penchant for being cheeky at work before.

On this day, their unit was holding a summary and commendation meeting about flood relief work, and Qian Xiaoshuang went along to do an interview.

Yan Kai and Gu Junming both received commendations for their achievements. Their unit earned a third-class merit, and Gu Junming individually received a second-class merit for rescuing people.

Liao Dongyuan, who was responsible for logistics support, was collectively awarded a second-class merit for transferring grain from a large warehouse with his men under life-threatening conditions. Yang Zhen was very excited. Though she couldn’t go, she sent two boxes of fruit for everyone to share.

The soldiers in the audience cheered and applauded when they saw those on stage receiving awards and were very happy.

Qian Xiaoshuang saw Yan Kai on stage in his military uniform, saluting solemnly and took a few photos sneakily. He did look quite handsome.

With so many awarded, everyone was naturally happy.

Yet, only one person outwardly smiled but was inwardly seething with anger, feeling very upset. His fists clenched tightly.

This person was Liu Gang. He felt very wronged: Everyone battled on the front lines for days, and my hardships were no less. Why was I the only one without a reward?

Actually, the superior spoke to him yesterday, saying he was too eager for success, disregarded objective circumstances, leading to many soldiers getting injured. Though he worked hard, his merits and faults canceled out, and not punishing him was already considerate.
