Chapter 38

s coming-of-age ceremony, she accidentally saw that beautiful jade chili pendant on Ning Yuan.With coaxing and threats, that little wretch only reluctantly agreed to give it to her as a New Year's gif...Chen Chen looked at the wound on his temple, just beneath his fringe. If it went down a little further, it would take out the captain's eye!

What kind of person is their captain There are few people in the world who could harm him, unless he himself was unwilling to fight back.

Chen Chen's heart ached, her eyes turning red. She trembled, wanting to touch his forehead: "Captain, Dongzi, Laoqiang, we all know you suffered, now it's all over, everyone is waiting for you..."

When the captain was forced to retire, everyone almost went crazy. Some even left, but they could never find the captain again.

"I'm married." Rong Zhaonan turned his face away from his hand, coldly interrupting him.

Chen Chen was stunned, his mind unable to process the word "marriage".

"What...what..." he stammered.

What kind of woman is worthy of the captain.

...and marriage...does marriage mean having a wife, children, and a warm kang (traditional Chinese stove) to go home to

Then... then wouldn't that mean you really don't want to go back to the battlefield anymore That you've lost your fighting spirit

Chen Chen trembled all over, clutching his chest: "No... you must be lying to me. Which woman seduced you and took your innocence! You lost it You were a pure boy just like me before you were sent down... AAAAAH!"

Before the words even left his mouth, he was struck twice in the stomach by Rong Zhaonan's fists. He retched and spat out sour water, collapsing to his knees.

"Don't push me to hit you, stop talking nonsense, it's disgusting." Rong Zhaonan rubbed his fists, his eyes filled with disdain and mockery.

This guy is acting like he's been betrayed and wants to die!

Chen Chen covered his stomach, bending over to vomit a mouthful of acid water. But suddenly, he raised his eyes and laughed viciously and triumphantly—

"Captain, are you lying... *cough cough*... If you were truly content to wallow in this wretched gutter, would you keep training and maintaining your peak physical condition" Let me know if you need anything else translated!

He was bad several times, provoking the captain to take action twice. He wasn't able to dodge either time, showing that the captain never slacked off on training!

Chen Chen stood up and stared straight at Rong Zhaonan: "Don't deceive yourself, Rong Zhaonan. You are absolutely not someone who is content with shallow waters."

Rong Zhaonan narrowed his beautiful eyes, dangerously saying, “Chen Chen, you were a simpleton before, single-minded. Now that you've replaced me as captain, have you become more cunning too”

Chen Chen grinned mischievously: "People grow, or else how could I control those mischievous monkeys in the team As long as you come back, I'll always be your soldier. I only take orders from you!"

What does being the number one in the army-wide martial arts competition even matter The honor that everyone looks up to, is something that a captain doesn't really care about having or not having.

Róng Zhāonán fell silent, then suddenly reached out. "Do you have any cigarettes"

Chen Chen immediately fished out a pack of Zhongnanhai cigarettes from his pocket and handed one over.

Then, he skillfully took out a match and lit it, lighting the end of Rong Zhaonan's cigarette.

Rong Zhaonan's long fingers held a cigarette, lazily taking a puff and squinting his eyes: "I won't be going back for now."

Smoke obscured Rong Zhaonan's face, making Chen Chen unable to see his expression for a moment.

Ke Chen keenly sensed that Rong Zhao's words meant — he wouldn't go back for the time being, rather than never going back.

He instantly perked up: "No need to rush. This time, my identity is as a staff member from the inspection team of Ning City, the provincial capital of Nanshi Province. I'll be staying here for a while."

Rong Zhaonan pressed down on the lens of his high bridge, saying faintly: "Suit yourself."

Chen Chen was so excited, he almost wanted to hug Rong Zhao Nan and cry. He really wanted to hug the captain and spin around.

But he didn't want to be beaten anymore. The captain's hands were still so black, full of ways to beat someone until they were in pain, but without truly harming them.

Chen Chen nodded like pounding garlic: "Okay, I'll go back and report on my work, then come back to keep you company. You can stay here as long as you want."

Anyway, he'll always drag the captain back to the capital! He won't stop until his goal is achieved!

Rong Zhaonan sneered, the lenses reflecting a sinister cold light: "Tell the old man for me that I'm not his trained attack dog. He can kick me away if he wants, and bring me back to bite when he pleases. If he really wants me back, show some sincerity."

Chen Chen froze. Had he gone mad to relay such information to the big leaderhaonan lowered his eyes, hiding his cold gaze behind his glasses, and said neither servile nor arrogant: "Report, I'm here to pick up my significant other.""You..." Li Yan held back, not knowing what...
