After getting over Gong Lizhen's joke, Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran were in a good mood. Once the two laughed it out, the acc.u.mulated exhaustion from the day's events disappeared.

The two men wondered how they never realised Gong Lizhen was such a good and interesting child? Lin Wenbo's wariness towards the youth was gradually fading, and he was beginning to have a better impression of Gong Lizhen as he watched the boy walking in front of Song Haoran. ipgsBM

After observing the boy for two months, he could tell that Gong Lizhen's love was purely platonic. After Song Haoran and Gong Lizhen finished speaking, the enthusiasm in Gong Lizhen's eyes had completely faded, and his face was now calm. Lin Wenbo felt relaxed and comfortable around the changed Gong Lizhen.

Friends.h.i.+p between two men was easy to establish. By undergoing a few hours of suffering together, the friends.h.i.+p between Gong Lizhen and Lin Wenbo had deepened.

As August ended, and September began, an unreasonably hot autumn came. The red sun was simply suspended there, but the heat which radiated from it was still intense. After three days of hard work, the three men were already tired. Sweat poured off the three males as they entered the locker room to change clothes. Impatience could be seen on their faces because they desperately wanted to head to the public bath in the training camp.

There were a lot of people in the bathhouse. When the soldiers saw Major General Song entering, each greeted him; several people speeding up their actions in order to make s.p.a.ce for the three people that had just entered. XBqTfE

Whilst Song Haoran looked for a basket to borrow, he said, "After a tiring day, it's good to take a hot bath to relieve your muscles. The aches will slowly fade that way. After I finish, let's have dinner together. Didn't you say that you liked the steak last time? Let's go eat some Western food." Receiving the basket from somebody leaving the bathhouse, Song Haoran pa.s.sed the basket to Gong Lizhen so he could put his clean clothes in the basket. The basket was put to the side, so that it would be convenient for Gong Lizhen to wear his clothes after showering.

Hearing delicious food being mentioned, the youth's eyes brightened. "Okay! Thank you, Song Big Brother." Gong Lizhen said. The boy didn't bother hiding the drooling expression on his face. This made Song Haoran laugh and feel as if he wasn't a dirty and sweaty mess.

Watching the two getting along harmoniously, a hint of envy swept through Lin Wenbo's eyes. It was strange that he used to be disgusted with Gong Lizhen, since he knew just how fond he was of the boy. He especially liked to see Gong Lizhen's serious but calm expression. Unfortunately, after the conversation that day, the boy seemed to have moved on from his previous infatuation; becoming far more distant towards him.

Lin Wenbo frowned. He repressed his feelings in his heart and quickly too off the dirty uniform before turning on the shower head to clean himself. Song Haoran also took off his dirty uniform, revealing healthy skin tanned into a nice bronze. rm0H1F

Both men heights' were over 180 centimetres. They were physically strong and the muscles were well-balanced. And in between them stood the white and tender cat-lookalike, Gong Lizhen. The picture that the trio formed was quite odd, but
