At night, right when BaiLuoYin was about to sleep, he received a phone call from his instructor.

"Xiao Bai, our battalion is having a celebration party tomorrow so you must come!"

BaiLuoYin was silent for a while, then he asked, "Inside the military base or outside?"

"The banquet has been booked in the International Convention and Exhibition Center at the banquet hall on the fifth floor. Don't try to find a variety of reasons to reject again. Other young people are eager to go out and walk around. Except you here, you will not participate in any activities that have nothing to do with the training. Should I praise you or punish you?"

"I'll go, okay?" BaiLuoYin's tone revealed a bit of helplessness.

The instructor laughed loudly, "As the deputy battalion commander, you should interact more with the new recruits to build rapport. Prestige needs to be established but should not be excessive. The new recruits are afraid to raise their heads when they see you."

BaiLuoYin furrowed his brows, "Isn't that too exaggerated?"

"You go look in the mirror now!"

BaiLuoYin really walked in front of the mirror.

The instructor also added, "Remember to wear your uniform, the leaders will be present at the beginning of the banquet and pictures will be taken as souvenir."

"Okay, I know."

Hanging up the phone, BaiLuoYin looked at the face in front of the mirror carefully, silently saying in his heart, is my face really that scary? In order to make his image more gentle, BaiLuoYin planned to take a shower and shave.

Right as he was putting gel on his hair, he heard a knock at the door.

"Who is it?"

"Major, it's me." It was LiuChong's voice.

BaiLuoYin opened the door and saw LiuChong wearing thick cotton clothes standing outside. His shoulders already covered in a thin layer of snow.

"You need something?" BaiLuoYin asked.

LiuChong handed the clothes to BaiLuoYin, but didn't say anything and left in the cold wind.

BaiLuoYin looked and saw that it was his military uniform from the laundromat that was needed for tomorrow's event. He did not have time to get it, but LiuChong got it for him to spare him the hassle of having to go out. BaiLuoYin's heart was comfortably warm.

GuHai's company's annual conference was also held today, but on the fifth floor's banquet hall of the Convention and Exhibition Center. It was just separated by a wall from BaiLouYin's battalion celebration banquet.

This time of year is the happiest moment for the company's older women. They not only receive all kinds of incentives, but also can be in close contact with their president. Even if it's only eye contact, it can make them excited for many days. So before this time, these women were busy preparing for the event and selecting their clothes. It was to show their elegant manner at the annual conference to win some attention from the president.

Because this ballroom was full of beauties that were all dressed up gorgeously, the emcee lady did not dare go in and was replaced by a male waitress.

It had been too long since this group of older women came in contact with men, and now that they see a male waiter, all stared at him without blinking.

GuHai made a brief summary and turned the rest of the program over to YanYaJing. He is responsible for listening and recording. Occasionally if he's happy, he may reach out to applause, but most of the times, his expression remained aloof.
