Chapter 39 IQ Crush
Xu Yan held Liu Wei's hand and expressed his gratitude.
That look and expression were so sincere and heartfelt that people who didn't know would have thought that Liu Wei had deliberately given in the last time the two of them fought!
"How is this going?"
"Didn't Liu Wei cause trouble? Why did Xu Yan thank him? Can anyone tell me what happened? Was it Xu Yan's sneak attack or Liu Wei's deliberate decision?"
"If you ask me, who should I ask? You'll know after watching it."
Everyone looked bewildered and stared at the two men in confusion. After thinking about it for a long time, they could not come to a conclusion. In the end, they simply stopped thinking about it and stared at Liu Wei to see how he would react and observe how the situation would develop.
Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, then he shook off Xu Yan's hand and shouted, "Who the hell gave you the right? Stop talking nonsense!"
"Brother Liu Wei, there are no outsiders here. The company commander and the others are not here, so don't deny it." Xu Yan said sincerely. Without giving Liu Wei a chance to continue, he continued, "I know you let me go on purpose. Otherwise, with your strength, who in the entire regiment can beat you? Even if I sneak attack you, I can't hurt you. It must be that you take care of your brothers, and you saw the look I gave you and understood what I meant. You let me go on purpose, it must be like this!"
In just a few words, Brother Liu Wei became the big brother again. Xu Yan hadn't finished yet and continued, "Brother, don't deny it. I know you did all this for me, but now that I've joined the army, there's no need to hide it anymore. You've been wronged enough to get me into the army, and your reputation has been damaged. Many people say that you can't even beat a newcomer..."
At this point, Xu Yan paused, intentionally leaving Liu Wei an opportunity to speak. As expected, the latter lived up to expectations and glared at him and cursed: "Who the hell is talking bullshit? I can't beat a newcomer like you?"
"Yes, Big Brother is the best fighter in the group. How can a newcomer like me beat him?" Xu Yan took over his words. He took a deep breath and said loudly, "Today, in front of everyone, I can't hide it anymore. I want to tell the truth!"
"The truth is, my elder brother deliberately gave in so that I could pass the test. Otherwise, I would not have passed the test at all." Xu Yan looked around and said to the onlookers, "From now on, you are not allowed to criticize my elder brother. He is the best fighter in the group and a true hero who values loyalty, not a coward who can't even beat a newbie."
"I thought he was looking for trouble, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding!"
"Squad leader Liu Wei is really brave. He deliberately lost in order to get his brothers into the army. He is truly a man of high moral character and a role model for our generation!"
People around started talking about it, and many of them gave Liu Wei a thumbs up, praising him highly.
Hearing the discussions and praises, Liu Wei suddenly felt embarrassed. He didn't know whether to take action or not. He was stunned for a moment, and his not very smart brain started to work rarely.
It was true that he came here to demand an explanation, and his purpose was to teach Xu Yan a lesson and then restore his own reputation. However, even if he beat Xu Yan up and was defeated by the newcomer's sneak attack, it would still be a stain on him. But now it is different. He only needs to follow what Xu Yan says, and everything will change fundamentally. What was originally a stain will no longer be a stain, but a noble character!
Should he take action or not? Liu Wei was in a dilemma.
If I take action, I can certainly teach Xu Yan a lesson, but my reputation will be damaged; if I don’t take action, I can preserve my reputation, but it will be too easy for Xu Yan!
Seeing Liu Wei's hesitation, Xu Yan stepped forward, held his hand again, and said, "Brother, thank you for your help. Thank you so much. I will never forget this kindness. I know that you came here this time because you felt that I was not good enough. In fact, you really misunderstood me. I am not a person who will destroy the bridge after crossing it. I have been wanting to visit you these days, but you also know that the new recruit company has heavy tasks and tight training, and I really can't spare the time..."
"How about this, after the recruit period is over, I will have more time and the training tasks will not be so heavy. I will definitely treat you to a good meal, thank you and apologize to you!"
Xu Yan used a combination of flattery and rhetoric, as well as writing blank checks. With his eloquent tongue, he turned black into white and the shameless sneak attack into an act of brotherly love and respect. His words sounded logical and well-founded, which made everyone suddenly realize the truth and also completely fooled Liu Wei.
Seeing Xu Yan flattering him and offering him a chance to step down, Liu Wei had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and forced a smile, saying, "Sure, sure."
Wow!
As Liu Wei nodded, the crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.
"It turned out to be a misunderstanding."
"I knew it. How could a new recruit like Xu Yan possibly beat the best fighter in the regiment? It turns out that squad leader Liu Wei let him win on purpose. No wonder!"
A group of recruits spoke up one after another, expressing their admiration generously.
Liu Wei was a little shy at first, but after hearing it many times, he got used to it. He even felt a little proud in his heart, as if it was really true. He smiled and nodded .
Seeing this, Xu Yan secretly rolled his eyelids and sighed in his heart. His IQ was a fatal flaw. They were simply not on the same level. He felt a little embarrassed for fooling such a fool. It was too unfair!
A group of veterans who came with Liu Wei looked at each other with extremely strange expressions.
How come they were supposed to cause trouble, but now they are at the thank-you party? And when did Liu Wei collude with Xu Yan? They were there that day, so how come they didn't know anything about it?
"Liu Wei, what's going on? When did you two... " an old soldier asked suspiciously.
"Sergeant, you don't know..." Xu Yan didn't wait for the man to finish speaking, and started to explain directly He repeated what he had said before, and then bowed to Liu Wei.
Liu Wei coughed and lied with his eyes open: "Yes, that's right. Xu Yan winked at me and I saw that he was begging, so I let him go on purpose. Otherwise, how could he have kicked me!"
Xu Yan excitedly went forward and hugged Liu Wei, "Brother, you finally admitted that you are my real brother!"
Liu Wei's body stiffened, and then he put his arm around him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good brother, if anyone dares to bully you in the group in the future, just tell me and I will help you!"
The two held hands and looked at each other with tears in their eyes. They were so reluctant to part. A good-looking battle to punish the enemy turned into a gay reunion, full of passion, breaking through the sky!
In the regiment commander's office, Zhong Ming held a telescope and stared at the entrance of the recruit dormitory with wide eyes, waiting for Xu Yan to be dealt with. One minute passed, two minutes passed, five minutes passed...
She was about to burst into tears, but the two still didn't fight. Not only that, they hugged each other, closer than brothers, so she was in a mess...
