In the office of the Regiment Commander of the 3rd division, Qiao Ting passed the information he collected in these few days about 250 Mecha Clan to his regiment commander.
His regiment commander took the documents and read them. When he saw the names of Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong, he frowned.
He lowered his head and pondered for a long time. Then, he looked up and met Qiao Ting’s eyes. His eyes were dim. “Qiao Ting, we were given an order to provoke 250 Mecha Clan to determine their general capabilities. What do you think we should do?”
Qiao Ting replied emotionlessly. “If the order is not given by our direct superiors or the headquarters, I feel that we shouldn’t do it.” Ling Lan was not an easy person to bully. Instead of embarrassing 250 Mecha Clan, they might become their stepping stone. He already did such a stupid thing in the past, so he didn’t want to do it again.
The regiment commander was shocked. No matter who his opponent was, Qiao Ting never backed down. Why was he so apprehensive today? Was there someone he was afraid of in 250 Mecha Clan?
The regiment commander didn’t expect himself to guess accurately. Even Qiao Ting, who never shrunk back, didn’t want to offend 250 Mecha Clan. Was it worth it to do it for the sake of a major general of the same faction?
“Yang Mingzhi, Liu Furong, members of the North and South Stars. They are mecha operators with a title.”
“Long Qigang, Lu Yulong, Jiang Shaoguan, Zhuang Shaohan, Wu Yang... they are all experienced soldiers on the battlefield. They were very famous in their previous division. Hmm, Gu Dongyang? He is in 250 Mecha Clan too...” The regiment commander looked at the familiar names on the list and started remembering the old days. He remembered the days on the battlefield. Suddenly, he saw a familiar name and exclaimed in surprise.
Qiao Ting was puzzled. Gu Dongyang? He had a title too but he wasn’t on par with Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong in terms of status. Why was the regiment commander so surprised?
“I need to consider this!” The regiment commander was confused. He knew Gu Dongyang would not be able to operate a mecha anymore. How did he manage to stand up again?
The regiment commander had a mysterious look on his face. He gritted his teeth in the end and said, “I need to know if he really regained his power.”
He initially didn’t want to provoke 250 Mecha Clan for Major General Jiang Wei but now, he decided to understand the situation of the mecha clan first.
“Why can’t he just retire obediently? Why must he be so stubborn? Cough...” Qiao Ting heard his regiment commander sighing.
He knew his regiment commander had decided to provoke 250 Mecha Clan. Qiao Ting didn’t say anything. He politely bidded farewell to his regiment commander. Before he left Soldier City, he would do his last job well.
The Soldier City was the satellite city of Planet General. Much money was spent to modify Soldier City, the weather here wouldn’t be too bad.
Luo Chao and Han Xuya could finally have a good night’s sleep. The next morning, when they saw the beautiful and bright sun, their fatigue was dispelled.
“Ah, Luo Chao, the sunlight is so comfortable. We have not seen sunlight for half a year, right?” Han Xuya pulled the curtain open. The warm sunlight entered into the room. She closed her eyes while basking in the gentle sunlight happily.
Planet Juhao was not suitable for humans to live in. There was no sunlight, it was enveloped in darkness all year round. After spending so much time on Planet Juhao, Han Xuya felt she was getting moldy.
“Yes, the sunlight is so beautiful.” Luo Chao walked to the window and enjoyed the sunlight with Han Xuya.
“Why don’t we go shopping?” Han Xuya’s eyes lit up as she asked the question.
They had not gone shopping for almost a year. Luo Chao was tempted too. However, she still had some qualms. “We are not familiar with Soldier City. Furthermore, when we came yesterday, I didn’t see any woman around. Is it safe for us to go out like this?”
Luo Chao still remembered how she was teased when she went shopping during the Grand Mecha Tournament. Not everyone in the military was good, there were some perverts mixed in, ruining her whole experienced.
Luo Chao’s words reminded Han Xuya. She looked at Luo Chao. With the sunlight shining on her, making her looked pure and beautiful. Then, she thought of the stupid men outside who had not seen a woman for a few years. She would definitely not be able to stop them alone. Han Xuya forgot she was a woman and that it would be dangerous for her too.
However, Han Xuya was unwilling to give up on this opportunity. She pondered for a moment and an idea came to her. “Nevermind, we can get our Boss to protect us.” They could use this opportunity to get closer to their Boss too.
As Luo Chao’s best buddy, she must help Luo Chao to win the heart of their Boss. She would feel at ease if her Boss got together with Luo Chao.
“No, no. No way.” Luo Chao waved her hands in shock. Han Xuya would not be stopped by her so she rushed out of the room, running towards Ling Lan’s room.
“Xuya, don’t go. Boss is very busy. He has many things to do.” Luo Chao wanted to cry. How could they trouble their busy Boss just because they wanted to go shopping? Luo Chao felt guilty. She reprimanded herself for not holding Han Xuya back. She chased after her hurriedly to stop her before she did anything stupid.
Unfortunately, Han Xuya’s physical skills were higher than Luo Chao’s. No matter how hard Luo Chao ran, she was unable to catch up with Han Xuya.
When Luo Chao arrived at Ling Lan’s room, she saw Han Xuya smiling brightly at her. She struck two fingers and gave her a ‘peace’ sign.
Huh? What does that mean?
“Luo Chao, Boss agreed to go shopping with us.” Han Xuya’s excited voice could be heard. Luo Chao was surprised when she heard footsteps coming behind Han Xuya, revealing Ling Lan. She met Ling Lan’s gaze. Ling Lan was already in her military attire.
“Boss, actually, we can just ask my brother to accompany us.” Luo Chao’s face turned red. Although she was elated that she could go shopping with her Boss, she still gave a logical suggestion.
Erm, Boss, please don’t agree... sob, when did I become such a bad girl? I disregarded how busy he is just because I want to go shopping with him... Luo Chao was embarrassed. She felt sorry for her Boss who always took care of her.
“I want to familiarize myself with Soldier City too.” Although she couldn’t enter Planet General, Ling Lan still wanted to take a look at Soldier City. After spending so much time in that horrible place, she needed to experience the life of a normal person again.
Well, she would never admit that she actually wanted to go shopping too.
