Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Delivering Meals

Crash! The door was slammed shut as Wang Dabao was kicked out. He angrily kicked the door a few times,

causing it to bang loudly, but no one inside responded. Instead, he heard a child's cry.

Wang Dabao’s face was full of rage. He stopped kicking the door, scratched his head, and then hurriedly got into

his car and left, still looking furious.

Sun Chan emerged from the corner, her brows tightly furrowed.

Such a good woman like Guihua, and he doesn’t know how to cherish her. Just after gaining a little bit of success,

he starts having bad intentions. | really don’t know if he’s clever or foolish.

Sun Chan picked up her lunch box and left, thinking about the place Gu Junming mentioned for testing, and then

she headed there.

There was a sign here: Unauthorized persons keep out.

She looked inside and saw dense woods, which were seldom frequented. Sun Chan trudged her way in, one foot

deep, one shallow. Mosquitoes were everywhere, and soon she was bitten several times, making her itch.

Sun Chan braced herself and kept going. Beyond the woods was a vast grassland where she vaguely saw two

people in military uniforms setting up poles and taking photos. There had been surveyors in her former village

too, which had seemed at the time, and everyone went to have a look, so seeing this now didn’t surprise

her.

Unconsciously, she walked over, but after a few steps, she halted.

Sun Chan suddenly remembered something. He already has Bai Fanglan. What does it mean forto bring him

food?

Suddenly, she felt a void in her heart, an indescribable feeling.

In front of Bai Fanglan, she felt a bit inferior. Of course, Sun Chan understood the woman's disdain for her, but

she had the credentials to be contemptuous: a good family background, beauty, and she was a military doctor. It

was rumored they were dating, so what did bringing him food mean? Just a fatherless, motherless girl from the

village...

So, Sun Chan changed her mind, turned around, and started walking back, feeling empty inside.

After only a few steps, she felt as if she had stepped on something that made her uncomfortable. When she

looked down, she was almost scared to death. A child’s arm-thick snake over a meter long quickly wrapped

around her right foot and slithered rapidly up her leg.

Sun Chan's scalp tingled as she couldn't help but scream. The bag with the lunch box in it flew out: "Ahhh! A

snake!"

At this moment, Gu Junming was sitting on the grass recording data while Xiao Wu went to find firewood.

He heard the voice and was stunned. Was it Sun Chan's?

He hurriedly stood up and looked around, seeing a figure near the distant meadow. His heart dropped! He quickly

hurried over; Sun Chan was frantically crawling on the grass, with the snake chasing her relentlessly.

Gu Junming shouted loudly: "Sun Chan, don’t move, there’s a marsh here!"

But he was still a step too late. Sun Chan realized one of her legs was slowly sinking into the swamp below.

Terror struck her as she desperately tried to pull her leg out, but the more she struggled, the deeper she sank.

Cold sweat covered her forehead.

As Gu Junming ran, he pulled off his belt from his waist. "Take a deep breath, don’t struggle! The more you

struggle, the faster you sink! Hold on!" Speaking, he was already at her side, lying down, and tossed the belt

over.

One of Sun Chan's legs was already sunk above the knee, and it was getting deeper. She really thought she was

going to die here today. Luckily, Gu Junming had thrown the belt over.

Sun Chan held tightly as Gu Junming pulled her out, urging, "Take a deep breath, relax! Don’t struggle!"

Sun Chan nodded, her body slowly inching outward.

As soon as she emerged from the swamp, they both collapsed onto the grass.

Sun Chan's pants were covered in mud, and she felt embarrassed and terrified. She had just rushed in without

thinking, and if she had died, it would have been her fault. But if she had implicated Gu Junming, wouldn’t that

be her sin! Now her heart was filled with regret, her eyes reddened, and tears fell one by one.

"I'm sorry. | caused you trouble." Sun Chan cried with her head down.

Gu Junming wasn’t angry, smiling as he said, "You clooking for me?"

"Deputy Battalion Commander... the snake!" she pointed at Gu Junming'’s ankle, a bit panicked as the snake

curled up again.

"It's okay, this snake isn’t poisonous. But there are swamps everywhere; don’t wander around." Gu Junming

picked her up horizontally and kicked the snake away with one foot.

"But you..."

"It’s safer this way, it's okay."

"No, letdown." Sun Chan leaned against him, feeling very uneasy.

"It’s really dangerous here, hang in there. I'll carry you out." Gu Junming carried her out of the woods. She was

as light as a feather in his arms, worrying him that he might hurt her by carrying her.

"Sorry, Deputy Battalion Commander, | really shouldn't have come!" Sun Chan was so ashamed she didn’t know

what to say, questioning if she’d gone mad.

Gu Junming leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I’m not angry, don’t worry."

The warm breath blew into Sun Chan's ear, causing her whole body to tremble. She glanced at Gu Junming and

saw his intense gaze fixed on her. Startled, she lowered her face again, shadowed by her long eyelashes.

Gu Junming felt a stir in his heart, this girl really was beautiful. While he worked that morning, he thought how

nice it would be if she cby. But he also thought about how dangerous it was here, so she probably wouldn't

come.

Who knew she really came! A surge of joy filled his heart, and he didn’t know why he missed seeing her, even

though they’d only met a few times. Yet seeing her still brought enormous joy.

"Never cto such a place again in the future." Even while holding someone, he didn’t feel tired at all. His

breath was steady. He gently placed her on the edge of the grass.

"Did you clooking for something?"

"Actually, | wanted to bring you guys something to eat. Oh! | threw the bundle away!" Sun Chan just wanted to

cover her face; how could she have done something so silly!

Gu Junming chuckled, retraced his steps, and quickly brought the bundle back.

"Is this it?"

Sun Chan took the bundle. Fortunately, the plastic bags inside were tightly wrapped, and the rice absorbed the

broth without spilling much. She cautiously opened the lunch box: "Actually, it was made at that big sister's

house. | always think eating biscuits isn’t good. | just thought of bringing sfood suddenly, nothing else..."

The more anxious she was, the more tongue-tied she became. She just felt a bit foolish.
