There was a hint of a smile in his voice. This was the perfect seduction tactic and it was irresistible. Bo Jiu had no intentions of resisting him, allowing him to wipe her face obediently.
There were piercing glares from the side but she wasn’t concerned since it was a chance to claim ownership over the Almighty.
Hunter and Magician returned to the unit with weakened limbs. Previously, they had been gossiping about their relationship but now that it has been confirmed, how could they continue to gossip?! It was not allowed in the military. Boss, why are you doing this?
It wasn’t just that kiss, the candy incident spread throughout the unit in just one afternoon. Everyone was speculating the relationship between Qin Mo and Bo Jiu and naturally, word reached the old general.
“What did you say? That lad gave someone candy? Is this a joke?” The general took a sip of tea.
The deputy general ended with a salute, “Reporting, everything is true.”
The old general had more to add but the main lead was already at the door. He stood tall and firm in his military uniform against the light outside. His aura was so formidable the experienced deputy general was afraid. No, how could he be afraid? He was considered a junior.
The old general shifted his stand almost instantly, his original gossipy expression was replaced by a bright smile, looking like a wise elder. “You’re here? The mission was a success.”
Qin Mo entered the room and executed a perfect salute, his tone lazy. “General, you must have heard.”
The old general took a sip of tea.” Heard? What did I hear?”
“News about me.” Qin Mo didn’t beat around the bush, going straight to the point.
The old general pretended to be clueless, turning towards his deputy general. “This boy is going to be mysterious, what news does he have?”
“Reporting, I’m not sure as well.” The deputy general was an honest man, blushing the moment he lied.
Qin Mo glanced over slowly. “General, you have been concerned about recruit No. 10 and must have known of his activities. For instance, the incident when he pressed himself on me. That news must have reached you pretty long ago. Deputy General Li was once in intel, such news shouldn’t have posed much trouble. Old General, since you insist that you haven’t heard, I can give you a brief update as the party involved. As I have a special relationship with recruit No. 10, we aren’t suited to go on operations together. He will not be inside the operations team for the next operation outside the border.”
For the first time, the old general had a stern expression. He reached out and pinched his temples. “Qin Mo, you are not an emotional person.”
“After today, I realized I am.” There wasn’t any change in his emotions. “I wasn’t able to stay calm when someone pointed a gun at his head. I cannot lead my team with a focused mind, I wouldn’t be able to complete the mission.”
The old general looked up at him. “But today, your performance has been exceptional.”
“It’s not the same outside the borders.” Even until this moment, his thoughts were still affected by that moment. “We won’t have any reinforcements, conditions to go into disguise or an option to retreat.”
The old general wasn’t giving up that easily. “Recruit No. 10 is an exceptional technical soldier.”
