A few days later, as more and more people encountered Lin Fan in the cafeteria, the discussion about him intensified, mostly negative.
Lin Fan himself didn't care much.
The others, bound by confidentiality agreements, could only pretend not to hear. They went about their business getting their food and eating, paying no attention to anyone.
This attitude made public opinion ferment even more fiercely, and messages spread across the reserve team like a torrent.
At lunch time that day, a few people just sat down after getting their food and picked up their chopsticks to eat.
Unexpectedly, a female reserve team member walked up to their table.
"Captain Song!" The visitor greeted Song Ren politely.
Song Ren looked up at her, nodded, and continued to focus on the meal in front of him.
"Hey, who is this?" Gao Fei leaned close to Li Chunhua and asked quietly.
"Jiang You, the reserve team's most beautiful girl." Li Chunhua kept his expression unchanged and spoke carefully, not daring to let Jiang You notice he was talking.
Gao Fei got the answer he wanted, and carefully straightened his body, pretending to eat seriously, but actually watching the show with his peripheral vision.
Jiang You is one of the few female players in the reserve team. Because of her strong professional skills and good looks, she is very popular in the reserve team.
Many single male team members like Jiang You, but the one Jiang You likes in his heart is Song Ren.
After Song Ren hinted and hinted several times, he did not accept it. Everyone knew that Song Ren had no interest in Jiang You.
But Jiang You never gave up, and the others were waiting and watching. Some people even made private bets to see if Jiang You could really succeed in catching up with the big devil.
When Song Ren brought Lin Fan to the playground for the first time, the news reached Jiang You's ears.
Later, Jiang You saw them several times on the playground. He felt that although Song Ren was unexpectedly considerate, there was no love in his eyes. So when he later heard the rumors about the base's eldest daughter, he just assumed Song Ren was completing a mission.
As a result, in the past few days, the news that Lin Fan and his friends asked Li Chunhua and Song Ren to help carry the trays when they ate in the cafeteria was spread all over the place.
Jiang You was furious after witnessing the truth with her own eyes. She felt that regardless of Lin Fan's status, as a reserve player, his behavior was excessive.
"You!" Jiang You pointed at Lin Fan, who was eating with his head down. "Why do you need someone to help you get your food?"
Lin Fan looked up in confusion and saw a heroic female team member standing in front of him.
She was about 5 feet 4 inches tall, with a healthy tan. Her short hair was pulled into a small tuft at the back of her head, and her large almond-shaped eyes glared at him unhappily.
Seeing Lin Fan looking up, Jiang You said with a hint of anger, "You're being careful. Even if you rely on your status, you can't treat the reserve team members as servants. You know, we reserve team members have gone through layers of screening to join the 800 reserve team, not to serve you!"
Lin Fan thought, he didn't consider them as servants.
Who is this woman? I looked at the badge and thought, well, she's younger than me, so I can ignore her.
She pretended not to hear anything and continued to eat with her head down.
Seeing that Lin Fan ignored him, Jiang You's anger rose. His face was clearly filled with anger.
Gao Fei was very impressed by Lin Fan's complete disregard for him.
When people rushed up to her and accused her, she pretended not to hear and just kept eating.
When the reserve players who were watching saw this reaction, they knew that the conflict was going to escalate, and they continued to watch the development of the situation with great interest.
"You're so rude! You don't even pay attention to others when they talk to you?" Jiang You said angrily, taking a step forward. "You're so disrespectful to others. Do you have any basic manners?"
Jiang You had always had a crush on Song Ren, and even though he couldn't pursue her, he still paid a lot of attention to him.
He was suddenly transferred away, and everyone thought he had joined some top-secret project team and started driving missions, but now he is accompanying his daughter to study. Isn't this delaying Song Ren's development?
And what's wrong with this woman? Why is she ignoring me?
Lin Fan slowly raised his head and looked at the angry woman before him. He blinked twice, confused.
"Jiang You." Song Ren spoke out to stop him.
But Jiang You saw Lin Fan's expressionless face. He thought she was playing dumb, provoking him, and ignored Song Ren's attempts to stop him. His anger grew even greater. "Do you know what kind of position Captain Song holds in our reserve team? How could you let him serve you with such composure?"
Gao Fei pulled at the corner of Li Chunhua's clothes and raised his eyebrows at him, as if to ask, is this woman interested in Captain Song?
Li Chunhua didn't dare to speak. She turned her head sideways and blinked at Gao Fei at an angle where Jiang You couldn't see, revealing a knowing smile.
"Jiang You, that's enough!" Song Ren had to speak out again to stop him. "I'm very satisfied with the current mission allocation. There's nothing worth complaining about."
Lin Fan remained silent, but Song Ren spoke out to stop him, which made Jiang You feel a little sad.
Hot-headed, she continued to accuse him, "You need so many people to play games with you every day. Not only is it wasting your own life, but it's also hindering the future of others. A young lady who even needs others to carry her food tray is not worthy of being in the reserve! You're not worthy of being a soldier!"
For a moment, the cafeteria was silent.
Although everyone disliked Miss Lin Fan, they still felt that Jiang You's words were too harsh.
Li Chunhua, Gao Fei and Ji Yu all frowned at the same time.
From Jiang You's perspective, it seemed that what he said was correct. However, they knew Lin Fan's situation, and such words were inevitably too hurtful.
Song Ren was about to explode when he heard Lin Fan speak.
"No." Lin Fan, unfazed by Jiang You's anger, replied casually. He lowered his head and continued eating.
"...What's not?" Jiang You felt a little regretful after he finished speaking. Hearing Lin Fan's words suddenly, he was unable to react.
Lin Fan finished his meal, put down his chopsticks, and said solemnly to Jiang You, "I'm not a soldier."
She didn't speak loudly, but because everyone was waiting for her answer, there was silence. When she finished speaking, there was an uproar.
Jiang You had initially felt a surge of guilt, but anger washed over her. She thought Lin Fan was arguing with her, and was about to say something, but Song Ren shouted at her.
"Jiang You! Go back to where you belong!" Song Ren was very angry. Jiang You's words were no longer appropriate.
Jiang You's eyes turned red. Song Ren actually yelled at her?
Even when his confession was rejected, Song Ren had never been so harsh on her. Looking at Song Ren's serious expression, his eyes staring at her, it seemed as if if she said one more word, Song Ren would really be rude to her...
Jiang You glared at Lin Fan hatefully, then turned and left.
The people around also dispersed, not daring to let Song Ren remember their names.
Lin Fan continued to eat with his head down, as if nothing had happened.
Song Ren continued to eat lunch without saying anything.
Li Chunhua, Gao Fei and Ji Yu looked at each other and all of them focused on eating.
It’s cold. If you don’t eat now, the food will get cold.
Captain Song's admirer appears. Please vote.
