There was a loud call of affirmation, followed by the shuffling sounds of seats being taken in unison...
Not even the clatter of benches striking the tables created any discordant noise.
Jeez, all this for just a meal together.
However, once the commander's word was given and everyone took their seats, chaos ensued as the atmosphere immediately livened up with everyone eating and talking amidst laughter; the mood was incredibly harmonious.
Today, the cooking squad had prepared a sumptuous meal, even giving each person an extra bottle of beer, truly a rare moment of revelry.
From a distance, Lian Qiao spotted Shuang Niuniu and Miao Liang, the battalion chief, sitting at the same table, seemingly in high spirits and enjoying their conversation.
They exchanged glances, a silent communication between them.
Shuang Niuniu seemed to have irritated Commander Wei until his handsome face turned dark, but she remained rather cocky, laughing in a gleeful, sickly-sweet way.
