Chapter 1350: Parachute general
When night fell, I continued to take care of the guests to ensure that they were eating and drinking well. As the host, I did have the duty to ensure everyone was well. Thus, at night I followed Q-Sword, Jian Feng Han, Yan Zhao Warrior etc to karaoke. Wan Er, Dong Cheng and I accompanied them until 11pm when we went back to rest.
……
In the hall of the hotel, Fang Ge Que sat in a wheelchair and was looking at a book called Shattered World. It was a Xuanhuan Book. Enchanted Painting was drinking juice at the side and Mocha was here too. She was Xue Jing’s sister Xue Rou.
“Ah Jing are you returning tomorrow?”
“En, sister when are you going home? It has been a long time.”
“Oh, recently I have been busy with the company. You know that, Zhan Long Studio started a company together so we must make this brand huge.”
“So that is the case.”
I held Wan Er’s hand and walked over. We smiled, “Rou Rou have the permits been done?”
“En, done boss.” Xue Rou smiled, “Let me introduce, one of our founders, Li Xiao Yao…”
Xue Jing smiled helplessly, “I have seen you many times.”
Fang Ge Que nodded, “Xiao Yao, are you really planning to quit?”
“En, most probably.”
I waved my phone and said, “There have been too many missions recently and I don’t have much time for the game. So, China’s defence has to defend Uncle Yan Zhao and you. In the future, I might not be able to be of help.”
“Okay then.”
Fang Ge Que placed the book on his legs, “It is fine, all of us are like stars in the sky, some shine, some dim. Like stars burning their own lives, your stage is not the game. Today opened my eyes, so cultivators really exist.”
I smiled. “I thought that you weren’t a normal person, if not how could you have such achievements? The top CBN player, the one everyone calls the Mage G.o.d, that is something normal people can’t do.”
“Ordinary.” Fang Ge Que said, “I am very ordinary, moreover, I am handicapped. So I am willing to put attention to the game and do each detail well to get my peak. This belief made me walk until now. If you talk about Mage G.o.d, Invincible, etc, those I am not good enough. In my career, many challengers are better than me… You are one of them. The other is Lin Yan during Conquest, haiz… All of you left one by one and only I am left on the spot.”
He looked a little sad, “Sometimes, I really feel lonely.”
“Invincibility is lonely.”
I laughed and tapped his shoulder, “Brother, hold on, you are China’s pride. Don’t let them look down on us, really… They dare to look down on us then conquer them. That is my will.”
Fang Ge Que was pumped, “En!”
Xue Jing smiled, “Okay, our boss needs to rest, the three of you should rest early too.”
Xue Rou looked at her and spat out her tongue, “Ah Jing are you okay? A few others from Legend came so why are you taking care of Old Fang?”
Xue Jing’s face flushed red, “Boss can’t take care of himself so what is wrong if I help him as the deputy guild leader?”
Xue Rou said, “I didn’t do that when I was deputy, it was always done by Lu Chunyang Xuan Yuan Feng etc, seems like Legend is a little different now…”
Fang Ge Que felt a little awkward and he coughed, “Little Demon, Ah Jing and I…”
“Nothing much right?” Xue Rou giggled.
Fang Ge Que didn’t deny and said, “No, I really like her, we are dating.”
Xue Rou was shocked, “Aiya, Ah Jing you need to consider. Old Fang is just someone that knows how to game, you have to take care of everything else in the future.”
Xue Jing smiled, “Sister! I know, I am old enough so obviously, I know about this stuff? Care about yourself, mother is always worried about you being alone!”
Xue Rou smiled, “Scoff, there isn’t anyone I like? The one I am interested in just got engaged. Let me wait, the guy that belongs to me hasn’t appeared yet!”
Fang Ge Que face palmed, “Xuao Yao, Zhan long’s two beautiful elders have always crushed on you, seems like Zhan Long’s atmosphere isn’t any better!”
I was speechless, “Let’s stop dissing one another, go wash up, tomorrow you all need to catch a plane.”
“En!”
“Good luck for the future!”
“You too.”
……
After sending Fang Ge Que away, I brought Wan Er back to her room. Lin Tiannan arranged a room for us that were side by side. Lin Wan Er wanted to drink some tea in my room. Usually, that was a hint, a girl coming late at night to your room to drink tea. This was obvious. But with how close we were, there was no need.
Right when Lin Wan Er was drinking tea, my phone rang. It was a foreign number--
“h.e.l.lo, you are?”
“I am Nanjing Army’s Sun Xiang, Li Xiao Yao are you free at 10am tomorrow?”
“En I am, is there something on?”
“Come to Nanjing, I will send a military helicopter at 8:30am to fetch you from the roof of your hotel.”
“General what is going on?”
“Huh I thought you knew, so General w.a.n.g Xin didn’t tell you. So w.a.n.g Zecheng’s death wiped out most of the Artificials in the country so most of the guardian teams will move into the special forces. Tomorrow morning there will be a rank ceremony in Nanjing and the guardian members will get their ranks.”
“What is mine?”
“The highest out of all members, Airforce Major General.”
“I am in the airforce?” I was slightly shocked, “I thought that I would be in the army!”
He laughed, “Wishful thinking, you want to enjoy life in a tank? No chance. Everyone discussed for you to join the army and you are in charge of air strikes. With your strength, you can hit various points on the border to give the enemy a headache.”
“En, okay then.”
“Since you agree then it is decided. Your uniform and rank are prepared, just waiting for you to come to headquarters tomorrow.”
“Okay!”
When talking about that, I glanced and noticed the disappointment in Wan Er’s eyes. So I hurriedly said, “General Sun, I would like to ask. Will there be missions in a short time? Moreover… I shouldn’t need to enter the force right away right, I have many things…”
Sun Xiang smiled, “I know, you just engaged. Congratulations, don’t worry, your status is special and we won’t force you. You can continue your life. Once the situation gets nervous on the border, you have to join in right away.”
“Yes!”
……
Wan Er heard what was said and looked happy, “Scoff, at least you have some heart and didn’t ditch me right after our engagement.”
“Of course not, wife…” I tossed the phone aside and hugged her.
Wan Er licked her lips, “But if you join the army the time with me will be even shorter Dong Cheng has been grumbling. Since you have less time with me, time with her would be even lesser.”
I held her hand and said sincerely, “Don’t worry, I will try my best to spend more time with you, as for Dong Cheng… Maybe my leaving is good, she will forget me.”
Her lips twitched, “Dummy, do you think Dong Cheng will forget you so easily? I can honestly tell you that I understand her. Once she decided to treat you well she will do so for the rest of her life, there won’t be anyone else.”
“Then how…” I was stunned.
She smiled and rested in my arms, “I am petty, but… I don’t want Dong Cheng to feel bad, wait for me. Once I conquer my side I will tell Dong Cheng to live together with us.”
“Ah?”
My heart shook, “Is it… Two girls serving me?”
“Wishful thinking!”
She stared and then said, “Wait a while, if we are both willing… Moreover, father and Uncle Dong Cheng is hard to persuade, ah ah ah… This is a headache. Anyways go do your quest, maybe after so much, Dong Cheng and I can pa.s.s this stage.”
“En, okay then… Right, I can’t be with you tomorrow morning, I need to head to Nanjing to get my rank. Airforce Major General how is that, isn’t your husband amazing?”
She giggled, “Stupid, if I had your ability, I would get an even higher rank.”
I was actually filled with regret that I didn’t ask for more. Seems like in the future I had to discuss with my beautiful wife.
“Right, are Xing Lie and Axe going too?”
“En of course. Three brothers, with the two of them, things will be much safer.”
“That’s good, I will talk to them and make them return you whole if not they can forget about coming back.”
“...”
