"Humph!" Li ngjie lifted her nose with dissatisfaction and said, "Having such a beautiful woman like as your shield, how can you possibly refuse? You should know, with just a wave of my hand, the n willing to be my shield could form a group. You should feel honored."
Leng Xuan gave a helpless smile. In his estimation, this was not an honor but rather a hassle. Thinking about those special forces soldiers from earlier, he couldn’t help but ask, "Does your family have connections to the military?"
Li ngjie nodded and said, "Yes, we have three generations of military personnel in my family."
"What positions do your father and the others hold? They must be quite high," Leng Xuan guessed, assuming that the Li Family must have a general among them, or else it would have been impossible to mobilize those special forces soldiers.
Li ngjie smoothed her hair casually and said, "It’s nothing much, my dad is a military district leader. And my brother, he’s now a colonel, I think. As for the old man of our family, he used to be the top figure in the military commission, but he’s pretty much retired now, so there’s nothing much to say about it."
After listening, Leng Xuan was completely stunned. Good heavens! He hadn’t expected Miss Li’s family background to be so formidable. Just having a military district leader ant a rank of a general, a true power-holder who could do whatever he liked within the country. And not to ntion a retired number-one from the military commission—the influence of such an elder was the most terrifying. Despite being retired, their clout was not diminished at all, with nobody daring to underestimate them. With this kind of background, no wonder Li ngjie always seed so nonchalant in the face of trouble.
At the sa ti, he also understood why Li ngjie’s personality was so bold and open; it turned out she ca from a military family background.
However, he still had a bit of confusion and asked, "How did you call them here earlier? I didn’t see you making a phone call or using any other thod of contact."
Li ngjie smiled and shook a silver bracelet on her wrist, saying, "This thing is actually a signal transmitter. It has a fingerprint touch button, and if there’s an ergency, I just need to press it, and soone will imdiately receive the signal. They will locate my position via satellite and send people over. There’s a temporary training base nearby Baiyun City that my father set up for my safety. He Bin is in charge of it."
Tsk tsk," Leng Xuan exclaid. Truly a family with power and influence, to temporarily arrange a base solely for their daughter’s security. Only soone with absolute authority in the military could accomplish that.
At the sa ti, Ling Xuejiu was also a bit surprised and said, "I know about your family, but I never heard you ntion setting up a temporary base here for you. I was wondering earlier who you were planning to call for help."
Li ngjie said with a smile, "Do I really need to ntion this kind of thing every day? It’s not sothing to show off about."
"Alright," Leng Xuan said, "Now that everything’s taken care of, let’s go back to our room. Uncle Ling and the others must be getting anxious." Saying that, he went to find Pang Hong, asking him to make sure the aftermath was dealt with properly. Considering the commotion with the Feihu Team and the special forces soldiers that had gone on for so long, he suggested that Pang Hong apologize to the guests, describing it as a surprise joint exercise, and to offer a discount on tonight’s expenses to avoid leaving a bad impression on the guests.
