Volume 2 - Chapter 39 – It’s actually Fatty Wu
Very Pure and Ambiguous: The Prequel
“Wait, Company Commander Zhang!” Seeing that Zhang Chengman was going to turn around and leave, I quickly stopped him. My issues wasn’t solve yet, how could I let him go.
“What is it?” Zhang Chengman asked.
“Can I not attend the military training?” I asked.
“You… can’t !” Although Zhang Chengman was troubled, due to the people in the military often being caring of their subordinates, if they made a mistake, the commanders can scold them, but he still could not agree to these sorts of request of not participating in military training.
I was a bit speechless, did I run the five rounds for nothing? The instructor also looked at me apologetically, since he promised me before, and now, since Company Commander Zhang disagreed, he couldn’t help it.
At that moment, I noticed that the instructor was pretty nice, he was like a man! I smiled towards him, and expressed that it was alright.
Seeing that I didn’t get angry, the instructor smiled kindly. Thus, the grudge between the two of us were solved.
Just when we were standing there, we heard the sound of cars from not far away, their battalion commander must have arrived!
A military car pulled over, all of the instructors, including Company Commander Zhang Chengman, all got their students to rest on stop, then quickly walked up to and formed a line beside the car.
At this moment, a slightly chubby young man wearing a colonel military uniform got off… When I looked over, I thought something went wrong with my vision! That was because, the person that got off was actually Fatty Wu!
When did this fellow come over to Yanjing, and got promoted to battalion commander? Thinking back, I did not see Fatty Wu after I got into a fight with Wu Yingying that time, first of it, it was because I didn’t have much free time, the second reason was that it was weird for me to go to their home. Seeing him again, I was rather worked up, since this guy was my little bro, I just don’t know if he admits it now. No matter what, I was still very happy to meet him here.
“Fatty Wu!” I ran over and shouted.
Hearing someone suddenly call his nickname, Fatty Wu blanked. Ever since he was transferred to Yanjing to be the battalion commander of a certain battalion, regardless of him being in front of his superiors or his subordinates, it was always very serious, no one knew that his nickname was Fatty Wu.
Fatty Wu looked over following the voice, and saw me, running towards him, causing him to isnatntly smiled.
“Boss… E—— Old Liu, why are you here!” Fatty Wu said “Boss” naturally, but then realized that his identity was different now, his subordinates were around him, so calling someone else “Boss” didn’t seem quite right. It made him sound like a delinquent, thus he quickly corrected himself.
Hearing Fatty Wu call me boss, I was very happy in my heart, it seems like I didn’t accept this little bro for nothing, I also knew that he couldn’t call me that in this situation, so I smiled understandingly, “Fatty Wu, you called me Old Liu, I don’t think I’m that old, right?”
“Haha, it’s a mistake, a mistake!” Fatty Wu smiled. “Liu Lei, why did you come here?”
“Me? For the military training, I am a new student in Huaxia University right now!” I said.
“Hmm… It seems like we haven’t met for two years, that’s right, you should be going to university, oh yeah, where’s Zhao Yanyan? Did she not come to Huaxia University? The three of us haven’t met for so long, I’ll treat tonight, and treat you and saozi…s for a meal,” When Wu Tian said half of what he was going to say, he suddenly remembered I didn’t only have one wife, thus added “s” after saozi.
Hearing Fatty Wu mentioned Zhao Yanyan, my expression darkened.
Seeing my expression, Fatty Wu found it rather strange, thus he quickly asked, “Liu Lei, what happened?”
“Wu Tian, Zhao Yanyan got in a car accident!” I sighed. “Although she has left the danger period, but I don’t know why, she still hasn’t woken up yet…”
“What!” Wu Tian got worked up. “What did you say, Zhao Yanyan got in a car accident! When was this? How is she now?”
“Just a few days ago, she’s in the hospital right now, but the doctor said she’s fine, waking up is just a matter of time,” I said.
“What exactly happened? She was fine, why would she suddenly get into a car crash!” Fatty Wu said anxiously. Although he already lost all thoughts of getting Zhao Yanyan as his girlfriend, he still cared a lot for her, so he was very worked up right now.
Thus, I told Fatty Wu about how Chen Zelong crashed into her. Hearing that Fatty Wu said in an extremely angry manner, “That son of a bitch, laozi’s going to take the troops there to bomb his Chen’s Corporation!”
“I already decided to take revenge on him, I’m going to Hong Kong these two days!” I said. “Oh yeah, I have to ask for leave from you, the major chief, I won’t be able to participate in the military training these few days!”
“This isn’t an issue, I’ll tell them now!” Fatty Wu then said to Zhang Chengman, “Company Commander Zhang, this student has some business at home, he won’t participate in the military training these few days, don’t worry, he already trained in the things for military training!”
Seeing the battalion commander say it, how could he not agree. Thus, he quickly said, “Yes, Battalion Commander!”
“Oh yeah, Fatty Wu, how did you get promoted to Battalion Commander in the two years we didn’t meet? This promotion is a bit too quick, right?” Could it be because of your dad?” I remember that Fatty Wu’s dad was a commander of the battalion in Songjiang province.
“Ugh! What are you thinking, although you can go through the backdoor in the army, no matter what, it’s impossible for me to rise to a battalion commander from a normal soldier!” Fatty Wu shook his head and smiled. “No matter how capable my dad is, it’s impossible for him to get me the position of a battalion commander, what’s more, I even got transferred to Yanjing!”
Thinking about it, he was right, how could they go through the back door to become an important official so easily, otherwise, how were they supposed to place the many young masters of the commanders.
“My old man threw me to pilot a helicopter for a while, then pilot a plane for a while, after that, I got promoted to a platoon commander. Then, during a mission, I made a huge achievement, with my dad’s work, I irregularly got promoted two levels, so now, your little bro, I, is already a battalion commander, I didn’t bring shame to you, right?” Fatty Wu said proudly.
I nodded, so it’s like this, it seems like he made a military contribution, then since his dad was also very powerful, his dad used this to help him get a good position.
“Oh yeah, did you got your passport and the plane ticket to Hong Kong? Do you need me to send you over with a military plane?” Fatty Wu said.
“No need, Yanjing city’s government is cooperation with Uncle Zhao, they organized it for me,” I said.
“That’s good, then I don’t need to worry, if the government of the capital can’t do this, then there’s nothing I can help you with,” Fatty Wu smiled. “How about it, let’s not think about it for now, I’ll treat tonight, let’s have a drink?”
