Chapter 516: Chapter 0516 Artistic Female Soldier 4_1

Everyone is fond of beauty, be it men or women.

Just as men discuss beauty, women gathered together would also discuss who’s the most handsome and capable amongst them. Women who were previously disinterested have joined in the conversation.

"Many people have red flushes on their cheeks, but not him, don’t you think it’s him? He’s the one with the shoulder insignia."

"Yes, indeed, I’ve seen him, I’ve seen him. I know who you’re talking about, I noticed earlier. He’s rugged yet refined, commanding with authority and behaves impeccably all the time. He’s a perfect warrior and scholar, educated in both arts and war scenes. Far better than Guo Huai."

"How could Guo Huai even compare to him in looks? He’s not as tall or as handsome, and his demeanor is far inferior."

"Exactly, other than his reputable background, Guo Huai doesn’t hold a candle to that handsome officer in any way."

While the women were whispering to each other, Chen Chen saw Bai Xue’s cheeks getting redder and immediately understood. He was about to tease her, but fearing it might spread and cause damage, he changed the subject instead, "I wonder who that man is, I should ask our troops about him later. Surely someone will be able to tell me something about such a striking man. He’s quite a rare specimen in the military."

Yang Fengying, who hadn’t joined their chatting, gave a cold laugh, "Why don’t you all quiet down a bit? Have you forgotten where we are? We’re here to cheer up the border troops, not to study the looks of the military leaders. What does it matter to you whether or not they’re handsome? With his age and position, and those good looks, unless something’s off, he must surely have a wife and a kid. What’s the point of getting excited at that end? No matter how good he is, he belongs to another woman, he is the father of someone else’s kids. Do you think if you find out more about him you can replace them? Think about it, even if you plan on doing so, he might not be interested! It’s not like all men in the world are the same, swooning over pretty faces! I should tell you, homely living is very important!"

Everyone immediately shut up at her words, all looking at Bai Xue in unison.

Yang Fengying and Bai Xue had always been at odds.

While Bai Xue was known for her exceptional singing and dancing skills, Yang Fengying had been learning Beijing opera from a young age as a pupil of the Mei School. Their positions in the cultural troupe were equally important, but Yang Fengying could not compete with Bai Xue’s looks, therefore she received less attention.

Bai Xue’s face turned pale, "We chat about what we want to chat about, what’s it got to do with you! Yang Fengying, just because you are a student of the Mei School doesn’t mean you can act as you please!"

Yang Fengying bluntly retorted, "And that same line applies to you, Bai Xue, don’t think just because you’re pretty you can assume all men in the world should bow to you. The world is vast and there are countless women more beautiful than you. Just because a few elites brought you to the top as the first beauty of the cultural troupe doesn’t mean you’re the most beautiful woman in the world! In this world, beauty isn’t always a blessing, it can be a curse too. You better remember my words, otherwise you’ll end up regretting it!"

It was Yang Fengying’s turn to perform next. After finishing her speech, she straightened her costume and walked to the stage entrance. When her clear and melodious voice laced through the air, she stepped onto the stage and immediately won a round of applause.

The rehearsals went very well, but when Chen Chen and the cultural female soldiers went to the training ground the next day, they didn’t see the handsome officer.

Upon asking around, they found out he had gone to the station to fetch his wife and child.
