318: Chapter 317 Delaying Tactics 318: Chapter 317 Delaying Tactics After a little spat involving a competition and a few verbal jousts with Xiao Ran, Yang Yi soothed Kate by promising to make ti to teach her the real techniques of killing.
Only then was he able to continue with his pressing matters.
Yang Yi returned to his room, which was also Zhang Yong’s room since they were currently sharing one.
“Brother Yong, help out, will you?
Could you help bring soone back from xico?
It’s just my few guys, you know them.”
Zhang Yong, lying on the bed with nothing to do, said, “They’re all grown n, why do they need picking up?
Give them so money and let them co on their own.
If they can’t even make it here, why would you need such useless people?”
Yang Yi said with a smile, “That’s not what I an, they’re talents.
They’ve just got out of prison and are unfamiliar with xico.
Even if they had money, they wouldn’t know how to get around.
You’re an old rcenary with connections, that’s why I asked for your help.”
Zhang Yong said irritably, “I was hoping for so peace, and here you are disturbing it with your troubles.
Fine, give the money, and I’ll bring them back.”
Yang Yi said with a smile, “Thanks, Brother Yong.
Oh, Mike and I are going to buy so equipnt, and I’m currently preparing a shopping list.
Do you need any essential gear?”
Zhang Yong sat up and said, “Yes!
Night-vision goggles, both thermal and low-light.
And guns, get an AK.
I can only be at ease with a spare AK.
Then there’s body armor and helts.
I’m no spy, so I don’t need that intelligence stuff.
If you want to charge into battle, you have to provide with the best protection and weapons.”
“What about the weapons?
If the AK is your backup, what’s your primary?”
Zhang Yong made a dismissive gesture and said, “The primary one doesn’t matter much; hmm, I’ll just use whatever others use.
I’m comfortable with all the mainstream firearms.
Anyway, I’m just an assault man, not chasing after long-range precision.
Just figure it out.”
Yang Yi wrote down Zhang Yong’s requests and said, “Alright, then I’ll be going.
I’ll give you the money later.
Get ready and head to xico.”
“Hold on a second!”
Zhang Yong called out to Yang Yi, watching as the door closed.
Then he lowered his voice, “Are you out of your mind?
Living together in the sa room in a prison was one thing; there was no choice.
But now you’re out, and there’s Kate, with her figure and face, stars in her eyes looking at you.
I bet the mont I leave this room, she’d be in your bed.
What are you waiting for?
Shouldn’t you be living with Kate, damn it?
Are you crazy or just stupid?”
Yang Yi didn’t expect Zhang Yong to bring this up, and Zhang Yong seed both anxious and annoyed.
After a mont of silence, Yang Yi whispered, “What about Xiao Ran?”
Zhang Yong paused for a second, then said, “What does this have to do with Xiao Ran?”
Yang Yi sighed quietly and said, “I’ll tell you the truth.
There’s not really anything going on between Kate and .
I know she likes , but I never felt that way about her.
You understand, right?
Our relationship now, I’m not even sure what it is.
Do I like her?
Yes, I do, but it’s more like a dependency, you get ?”
Zhang Yong shook his head and said, “Don’t tell , because I really don’t get it!
If you’re not moved being alone with a girl, then I can only conclude you’ve got a problem.”
Yang Yi sighed and whispered, “You’re dense.
I like Xiao Ran!”
Zhang Yong was taken aback for a mont, then said, “Right, there’s the beautiful Xiao Ran.
But this…
isn’t this moving on to another love?”
Yang Yi replied in annoyance, “Bullshit!
I knew Xiao Ran even before I t Kate, but my relationship with Kate beca closer sooner than with Xiao Ran.
That’s…
that’s not important!
The important thing is Xiao Ran is Chinese…
forget it, I don’t know.”
“What do you an you don’t know?
What’s that supposed to an?”
Yang Yi said with a distressed look, “I like both of them.
I’m a bit closer to Kate, but now I seem to like Xiao Ran more.
What am I supposed to do?”
Zhang Yong was stunned for a mont before saying, “What should we do?”
“I’m asking you!”
“How would I know what to do!
Damn it!
Speaking of which, when we were in the United States, Xiao Ran looked at you differently too.
This is difficult, very difficult.”
Zhang Yong shook his head and sighed heavily, while Yang Yi helplessly said, “Yeah, I don’t even know who I really like right now, so I’m not going to say anything.
When I figure out whom I like more, I’ll make a decision.
Right now I definitely can’t rush into establishing a relationship with Kate.”
Zhang Yong said in shock, “Are you still thinking about playing both sides?
Brother, you better have a clear idea of what kind of won these two are, one with invincible iron fists and the other with godlike marksmanship.
Aren’t you scared that if one of them gets angry, she might just shoot you?
Let tell you, if a woman goes crazy, she can do anything.”
“How is this playing both sides?”
“How is it not, you’re eating from the bowl while looking at what’s in the pot.”
Yang Yi urgently said, “Then tell , whom have I eaten?
Which bowl of rice have I eaten?
I’m being responsible to them as well as to myself.
Isn’t it better to wait a bit rather than to rush into a relationship and then regret it later?”
“You can’t always keep dragging things out, can you?”
Yang Yi responded helplessly, “What else can I do if I don’t drag things out?
Now’s not exactly the ti for love talks, right?
Besides, given the things we’re doing right now, who knows if we’ll even…”
“Stop it!”
Zhang Yong suddenly said sternly, “What are you saying?
Can’t you say sothing auspicious?”
Yang Yi turned his head and spat to the side, saying, “Ptooey, ptooey, may everything be auspicious.
Alright then, let’s not talk about this.
If there’s nothing else, I’m off.”
Zhang Yong waved his hand and said, “Go on with your tasks, but you still have to clear things up.
Xiao Ran’s mood has obviously been off these past few days, even a blockhead like has picked up on the sour vibes.
You can’t keep dragging this on, it’s not a solution.
At least clear the air, soothe things over, keep both sides happy for now.”
“You know how to charm won?
Then teach .”
Zhang Yong said disdainfully, “What’s so difficult about charming won, back when I…”
Yang Yi was all ears, ready to listen, but Zhang Yong’s expression suddenly turned glum, and then he said impatiently, “What can I teach you?
Go on, go on, go handle your business.”
Yang Yi felt a wave of regret inside.
He knew he had reminded Zhang Yong of sothing painful, so he said softly, “I’m sorry, Brother Yong.”
Zhang Yong let out a sigh, leaned back, and lay down on the bed again.
Then he said softly, “I’ll just say one thing, so things can’t be delayed.
If you drag them on for too long, you’ll be the one regretting it.
People, sigh, go on with your tasks.”
Yang Yi couldn’t say much more, it was ti not to overstay his welco.
He quietly left his room and closed the door behind him.
After sighing outside the door, Yang Yi went downstairs to Xiao Ran’s room.
He hesitated for a mont before finally knocking on the door lightly.
The door opened.
Xiao Ran looked at Yang Yi with a stern face and asked, “What is it?”
Yang Yi said awkwardly, “Are you free to talk right now?
We need to purchase so equipnt we’ll be needing, and I’d like to put together a shopping list.”
