C72 – Loser
“Colonel, I regret harming the sister-in-law.” Given the circumstances, Tank prioritized apologizing to Hee Jingyan, knowing well the severe consequences if he didn’t.
In the midst of his battle with Xu Yangyi, Hee Jingyan paused and shot him a brief glance.
Were those remarks just to highlight Xu Yangyi’s prowess? Tank simply wondered how Xu Yangyi perceived him.
He was at a loss for words. Casting a sidelong glance at Rosen, his look suggested imminent action. He then sincerely admitted, “The individuals I find most challenging are those seasoned and wily ones, like the colonel.”
With Tank’s assistance, Rosen smoothly interjected, “I’ve much to learn from your sister-in-law, Tank. I’ll continue to seek her guidance in the future.” This statent effortlessly diffused the tension, ensuring neither Hee Jingyan was offended nor Xu Yangyi’s capabilities undermined.
Before Hee Jingyan could react, Xu Yangyi’s eyebrows lifted in intrigue. He noted Rosen’s diplomatic choice of words. Indeed, this was the mark of seasoned ‘adults’.
Despite Wu Tie’s comndation of Xu Yangyi, the latter was not pleased. He felt that he was being recognized solely for his connection to his sister-in-law.
“Such grown-up behavior can be truly exasperating!” Xu Yangyi exclaid unexpectedly. He didn’t pinpoint anyone specifically with the comnt; it was a casual observation.
However, the comnt made Rosen flinch. Reflecting on his earlier verbosity, he suspected Xu Yangyi’s words might be directed at him. Yet, instead of taking offense, he simply looked up.
This youngster had a lot of nerve! Although he had the audacity to confront the colonel, I wondered how he could stomach seeing , the captain of the Dragon Riding Team, behave like this. I don’t despise such confident individuals, as his boldness stems from his unwavering belief in his own abilities.
Hee Jingyan often mused about how his wife not only had a fiery temperant but also exuded an arrogance. He was continually baffled by the enormous strength she possessed, given her petite fra.
“Ugh… It’s unbearably warm and I’m all sweaty! Need to head back for a shower!” Xu Yangyi unbuttoned his collar and waved it for so air. He then gave a sidelong glance at Hee Jingyan, who had him in an embrace.
How could this man not feel the heat? Why’s he clinging onto ? Completely illogical.
Xu Yangyi, however, recognized Hee Jingyan’s determination to hold onto him. Understanding that resistance was futile, he yielded. After all, Hee Jingyan was the one bearing the weight, and any potential embarrassnt would be his. Xu Yangyi felt reassured knowing Hee Jingyan wouldn’t set him down.
Reflecting on this, Xu Yangyi felt sowhat at peace. Yet, he was unaware of one thing: In this army, his spouse was the most influential figure. Who would dare oppose him?
Observing Xu Yangyi’s deanor, Hee Jingyan could deduce that Xu Yangyi was ruminating on sothing. Nevertheless, he brushed it off with a grin, saying, “Let’s head back!”
For anyone else, just a single disapproving look from Xu Yangyi might have provoked Hee Jingyan into retaliation. But Hee Jingyan had a soft spot for his wife. He was indifferent to whether she chastised him or otherwise.
As Hee Jingyan started to distance himself, and just when Rosen was under the impression that their wager was rely in jest, Xu Yangyi exhaled deeply. Without even glancing their way, he declared, “In the tis to co, I’ll be schooling both of you.”
