Fire Captain

"Snowflakes are falling, the north wind is howling~~~" Qiu Yingying went home with her own BGM.

As soon as she heard the voice, she knew it was her. Qu Xiaoxiao opened the door, walked out and said, "Your sister Xiaoxiao is here!"

Qiu Yingying took one look and said, "Qu Xiaoxiao, I have something good for you!" while holding up the lunch box in her hand.

Qu Xiaoxiao said: "What is it?"

Qiu Yingying couldn't suppress the smile on her face. She opened the lunch box and said, "Chocolate, Ferrero's is especially delicious. Why don't you try one?"

Qu Xiaoxiao took a piece of it and said, "Hmm...something's going on!"

Qiu Yingying said embarrassedly: "Nothing happened. It was sent by a client of mine... a fellow villager... a little boy... because he... he was sick before, so I sent him a bacon rice."

When Fan Shengmei and Bai Ziyang came back, they saw Qiu Yingying chasing after Qu Xiaoxiao to explain. Fan Shengmei said, "Xiao Qiu, what are you doing?"

Qiu Yingying jumped over and said, "Sister Fan, my brother-in-law will treat you to chocolate!"

Qu Xiaoxiao knocked on Andy's door for a long time but no one opened it. She couldn't help but ask, "It's late at night, why is Andy not at home?"

Qiu Yingying said: "Andy is heartbroken! She was drinking alone last night. It seems that no matter how strong a girl is, she will be the same after a breakup!" After saying this, she sighed earnestly.

Fan Shengmei and Bai Ziyang looked at each other, pinched a chocolate and said, "Okay, little love expert, go home and cook."

"Yeah!" Qiu Yingying went home happily holding her 'heart-shaped' chocolate.

Andy has been in a very bad mood these past two days. Wei Wei kindly found her father suddenly and indirectly learned the cause of death of her grandmother and mother. She became more suspicious that she also had a hidden mental illness. After breaking up with Brother Wei, her work was not going well. She couldn't understand why a person could always make the same mistake on the same problem!

After a day of stress, when she arrived at work in the morning, her secretary told her some bad news: "At 3 a.m. last night, Liu Siming suddenly fell into a deep coma. The police determined that it was caused by overwork."

Andy was stunned after hearing this. She looked at the email sent by Liu Siming, which had red circles and comments on it, and felt a little uneasy and sad. Although she did nothing wrong in this matter, her kindness still made her blame herself and feel guilty. Was it because of the way she handled it yesterday? If she had been more tactful, would the result be different?

Andy didn't get into work mode for a long time until Tan Zongming came to her.

"Andy, you should be prepared. You will be in trouble in the near future."

Andy looked at Tan Zongming and expressed his incomprehension.

Tan Zongming said: "Liu Siming's incident did cause quite a stir, because someone leaked the news to the reporters, and the reporters followed the clues and went to Liu Siming's home for an interview. When they arrived at their home, they happened to see the well-preserved work site in the living room, and on the computer page... it happened to be your email scolding him, so there is no doubt that you are the culprit."

Andy nodded to show that he understood. Tan Zongming said, "But the Liu family's situation is not very good. The married wife lives at home, the children are not very old, and the parents who came from the countryside squeeze into a small house with them. In short, there are old people above and young people below, plus more than 20 years of mortgage. It's a real version of the tragedy of middle-aged people. The office of my group has been surrounded by reporters, and the news has been published in the newspapers, so you really have to be prepared to be pointed at at any time."

Andy said, "I know! As long as there is no personal threat... the rest will come as it should. There is nothing to hide."

Tan Zongming said: "In this regard..."

As he was talking, the secretary suddenly came in and said, "Mr. Tan, Andy, there are Mr. Bai and Miss Fan outside who want to see you!"

Tan Zongming said: "They came quickly!"

Andy said, "Please let them in!"

After a while, Bai Ziyang and Fan Shengmei walked in hurriedly, still wearing camouflage training uniforms and military boots. It was obvious that they had just received the news and rushed here immediately. But they were still so damn handsome!

As soon as Fan Shengmei saw Andy, she said, "Andy, are you okay?"

Andy was grateful that they arrived so quickly, but he couldn't muster up the energy and could only say, "It's okay! Thank you!"

Bai Ziyang said: "There's no need to tell us this!"

Tan Zongming said: "You came at the right time. I was planning to arrange for someone to protect Andy."

Fan Shengmei said, "Don't worry, Mr. Tan. Nothing will happen to Andy as long as he is with us."

Tan Zongming said to Andy with confidence: "Andy, I know that no matter what happens, you always like to stick to the facts. I know this, but you also have to understand that many things cannot be explained rationally. So, leave all these things to me, and you just modify your plan peacefully and don't be influenced by anyone, okay?"

After get off work, Fan Shengmei and Bai Ziyang accompanied Andy and picked up Guan Juer. Guan Juer had never enjoyed the treatment of being picked up by three people. She felt like she was back to her childhood when her parents came to pick her up from school.

Everyone on the 22nd floor knew about Andy's situation. Except for Qu Xiaoxiao who had gone out to discuss business and had not returned yet, everyone gathered at Andy's house to accompany her.

Andy talked about her breakup with Brother Wei, her grandmother, mother, and brother's mental illness... until everyone fell asleep.

After they all fell asleep, Bai Ziyang returned to his home. The next morning, when he brought the breakfast, Andy and Fan Shengmei were already up and talking. Seeing Andy's smile, I always felt that Andy seemed to have survived another test.

The two sent Andy to work. Andy said, "Don't bother you. I really have nothing to do. Thank you very much for your company yesterday..."

Fan Shengmei said, "Okay, I treat you as my own sister, so if you keep saying that, it will be too formal! From the looks of you, there's nothing wrong with it, so we won't send you off, just drive slowly on the way!"

Andy smiled and nodded.

The company resolved the matter in a swift and satisfactory manner, and all colleagues in the company expressed their understanding and support for Andy. Finally, Tan Zongming said to Andy: "Andy, remember, this is your home, and all the employees of the company, including me, are your family."

Andy said, "Thank you, thank you, Lao Tan."

After finishing the business, Tan Zongming asked: "The holiday is coming soon, what are your plans?"

Andy put down the heavy stone in his heart and said with a little relief: "I don't know, maybe he went out for vacation."

Tan Zongming smiled and said, "Xiao Fan told me to give you a few days off. She wants to take you somewhere!"

Andy asked curiously: "Xiao Fan? She didn't tell me? Where are you going?"

Tan Zongming smiled and said, "Then we have to ask her!"

Andy said: "Mysterious!"

When they got home, Fan Shengmei ran over and said, "Andy, pack your things. I want to take you somewhere!"

Andy said, "Old Tan told me this this morning, but where exactly is it?"

Fan Shengmei said: "Oh, you will know when you get there..."

Andy really couldn't refuse Fan Shengmei, so she had to pack up and get in Fan Shengmei's car. This time Bai Ziyang was driving, and Fan Shengmei sat in the back with Andy. They drove out of Shanghai and finally drove into the mountains. Andy looked at the yellow soil behind the car and said, "Oh my God, there is actually a road here?"

The special forces called Bai Ziyang and Fan Shengmei before, saying that the women's special forces were going to train new members. Fan Shengmei and her group had already been in service for nearly ten years, so Fan Shengmei was notified this time to take time back to take on an apprentice, or to help select people.

Fan Shengmei brought Andy back and stayed there for a day and a night, firstly because of the special environment and secondly because of her sensitive identity.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the female soldiers running non-stop below, Fan Shengmei just said to Andy: "I know you have been carrying a time bomb, bomb, and bomb for a long time, and you are always afraid that you will go crazy, but I think if you are strong in your heart, you will not be afraid of anything! We have been walking on the edge of death for these years. Let alone time bombs, bombs, and bombs, we don't know how many real bombs and bombs we have encountered. If we didn't have the ability to endure it mentally, I really don't know how many people would go crazy..."

Andy looked at the people below who were running with perseverance, listened to the sound of gunfire, and thought about what Fan Shengmei had just said: "I can't help you with anything else, but I want to give you a kind of strength, a seed of strength that can sprout in your heart, and one day it will grow into a towering tree that can support you through any storms in your life... This place gave me this seed, and I think those who walk out of here will succeed in the end no matter what they do, because we are not afraid of anything..."

Andy didn't sleep at night because she found that the people here didn't seem to have the concept of sleep. People who had been busy training during the day were still sleeping at night. That is to say, from the time she saw it till now, it had been twelve hours and they hadn't stopped... She found it incredible...

Fan Shengmei said: "This is Hell Week. They are in hell all week without any rest. Even if they are given rest time, it is for the next more brutal training... I'm afraid that real hell is just like this..."

Fan Shengmei and Bai Ziyang took Andy away. They came back this time to help and visit relatives. After completing both tasks, they left with a wave of their sleeves and left like a cloud...

After returning home, it was almost the Chinese New Year. The two little ones in Ode to Joy had already rushed home with their luggage. I don’t know where Qu Xiaoxiao went to hang out again… In the end, Andy also said goodbye to the two of them, and took her luggage on the plane to go on vacation at the beach. Only Fan Shengmei and Bai Ziyang were left, and they had to stick to the front line of their jobs…

PS: Seeing that everyone in the comments dislikes Fan Shengmei, I can’t continue writing. I originally wanted to write about Andy’s life in the military camp, but I have no ideas. I’m sorry that it has started well but ended badly again... Oh... It doesn’t matter, I’ll continue writing in the next world. I don’t believe that every world can start well but end badly?

I have no idea about the next world yet, it's a bit confusing...
