Chapter 1392: Chapter 1393: Who Completed the Mission
“Brother, why not tell her the truth,” Xiaoxuan said, following beside Xiang Yu.
“No need, everyone is tired, let’s just go back and rest,” Xiang Yu said directly.
Xiaoxuan just nodded and then went back to his room to rest.
Li Bingbing, puzzled, chased after him, looking at Xiang Yu with confusion, “Why did you lie in front of everyone today? Don’t you know Sister Lan was very sad today?”
“I’m sad too.” Xiang Yu said, wanting to go back to his room to sleep, standing for over four hours today had made him quite tired.
“What are you sad about?” Li Bingbing asked, frowning as she looked at Xiang Yu.
“If you don’t let go to sleep, I’ll be very sad.” Xiang Yu said and directly entered his room.
“Xiang Yu, you bastard.” Li Bingbing kicked Xiang Yu’s door angrily.
“Training continues tomorrow; if you don’t rest, you won’t have the energy for it,” Xiang Yu’s calm voice ca from inside.
Li Bingbing was speechless; today was so exhausting, and they still had to train tomorrow, wasn’t this a death wish? Thinking of this, she quickly returned to her room to get ready for rest.
After Cheng Wulan returned to her room, she felt a weight on her chest, like a stone, and she urgently needed to talk to soone about it.
Picking up the phone, she intended to call Zhong Min, but seeing the ti was close to one o’clock, she assud the other party was already asleep.
In the end, she put the phone down and lay in bed to rest but couldn’t sleep, her mind filled with images of her brothers’ tragic deaths.
Eventually, she got up and sat on the sofa, poured herself a glass of red wine, and drank it quietly.
When the Rookie rcenary Corp gave them the task, Cheng Wulan was so happy, thinking it was recognition from peers and a good start for herself.
But what she didn’t expect was that it was a trap set for her, and she foolishly walked right into it.
She recalled Ivan and Xiang Yu’s expressions at that ti, thinking that they both knew the difficulty of the task.
‘Why didn’t they tell ,’ Cheng Wulan sighed softly to herself.
If they could have given her a hint, she wouldn’t have made such a rookie mistake.
That night, she didn’t sleep, sitting there the whole ti.
In the morning, when the first ray of sunlight ca in, she looked at the clock, seeing that it was already eight o’clock.
Picking up the phone, she was about to dial out when it suddenly rang, it was Zhong Min calling.
“You picked up so quickly, do you have any good news to share?” Zhong Min asked cheerfully.
“No good news, just feeling choked up and want to talk for a bit,” Cheng Wulan said sowhat dejectedly.
“What’s wrong, is it sothing with love?” Zhong Min’s voice was a bit stern.
Cheng Wulan was speechless upon hearing this; she hadn’t considered her lifelong matters yet. But suddenly, for so reason, Xiang Yu’s image appeared in her mind.
“Stop saying random things, I haven’t thought about that stuff yet,” Cheng Wulan said.
“If it’s not that, then what are you upset about? I heard you just completed an impossible task, I’m happy for you,” Zhong Min said happily.
“Don’t joke around with , I was just about to tell you, like I said before, this task was too hard, we couldn’t really handle it,” Cheng Wulan said discouragingly.
“What do you an, I don’t get it?” Zhong Min asked confusedly.
Cheng Wulan sighed, wondering why Zhong Min was asking this today. She knew Zhong Min was smart, usually knowing what she wanted to say.
“The mission failed, several brothers died,” Cheng Wulan finally said directly.
“What? Wulan, you’re joking, right? Are you saying you guys didn’t kill Kruse?” Zhong Min asked very confusedly.
“What, Kruse is dead?” Cheng Wulan also asked in puzzlent.
“You didn’t know?” Zhong Min asked very confusedly, “This morning, I got news saying that just last night, Kruse had his throat slit right in their base. I thought it was you who did it.”
After receiving the news, Zhong Min imdiately thought of Cheng Wulan, which was why she called.
Zhong Min knew the level of this mission and did not expect Cheng Wulan’s team to complete it, so she was excited and ca to congratulate her, only to find out it wasn’t her doing.
“Are you serious?” Cheng Wulan beca excited and sowhat at a loss, then continued, “His ti of death was around midnight last night?”
“Yes, that’s exactly the ti,” Zhong Min said decisively.
*Click!*
Just as Zhong Min wanted to say more, the call was suddenly ended. Holding the phone, she was stunned for a mont, then smiled wryly and shook her head.
Cheng Wulan’s heart was pounding; she rembered what Xiang Yu had said last night, and his calm and confident expression.
“Could it really be him, did I bla him wrongly?” Cheng Wulan murmured to herself.
Just then, Ivan’s call ca in. Seeing it was from him, Cheng Wulan suddenly felt a deep disgust.
“What is it?” Cheng Wulan asked bluntly.
“We’re out of operating funds; we hope you can send the money over quickly,” Ivan said plainly.
“Out already?” Cheng Wulan almost shouted; she had just ordered finance to send the money to Ivan’s side, didn’t expect it to be gone so fast, it was burning faster than cash.
“Soone was injured in this operation, I need to pay for their dical treatnt,” Ivan said directly.
Knowing the mistake was hers this ti, Cheng Wulan agreed imdiately.
“Rember, have them return the weapons imdiately,” she said, then hung up the call.
But judging from yesterday’s scenario, they barely had any weapons left; she guessed they lost them all last night.
While Xiang Yu and his team didn’t lose a single one, the contrast between the two was obvious.
She urgently needed to confirm sothing and quickly went downstairs to et Xiang Yu and his team.
In her heart, she refused to believe it; knowing this mission was S-rank, she knew it was impossible to complete.
But suddenly hearing soone tell her Kruse died last night, if it weren’t for such a coincidence in timing, she’d never believe it was Xiang Yu’s doing.
Upon arriving at Xiang Yu’s location, she found the room empty. Confused, she wondered if they were still training today?
As she stood there in a daze, she saw Xiang Yu running back from a distance.
Seeing Xiang Yu, Cheng Wulan felt a mixture of inexplicable tension and excitent.
“You were so tired yesterday, why not take a day off?” Cheng Wulan asked.
“I was just leading the team for a run, this distance is nothing for ,” Xiang Yu said bluntly.
Cheng Wulan thought Xiang Yu was just bragging and did not continue the topic, instead saying, “Last night, Kruse was killed.”
