Chapter 1221 - Untitled (2/2)
Bo Jiu arched a brow. “I’ll fight you if you’re on the other side.”
“Why?” Prince asked.
The youngster lowered herself, her dark fringe covering her forehead. Her long and slender fingers fastened the string, her voice indifferent. “So that I can trash you.”
Prince took a moment to realize what she meant. “Hey, we’re teammates! Teammates are supposed to be harmonious…” Before he could finish his sentence, a familiar presence appeared before him.
This time, Prince told himself not to fret. This was just a game, he was having a normal conversation with his teammate.
That was right, he shouldn’t be fretting.
Bo Jiu was still fastening the string when suddenly, a pair of jade-white hands appeared before her, his fingers long and slender. The pair of hands held onto the other side of the string, securing it onto his legs easily.
Bo Jiu glanced up. Qin Mo was beside her, fastening the strings. Just an inch more and they would touch. He smelled nice, with his unique tobacco herb scent. More importantly, since everyone was doing the same thing, no one paid them any attention.
Of course, that didn’t include Prince, who was standing at the side. No words could explain his current emotions.
If he hadn’t seen wrong, the devil had just stolen the string that belonged to him?
Once Qin Mo was done with his side, he moved over to help the youngster with hers. “We’re a team.” Three simple words – as though he was saying something ordinary.
Bo Jiu glanced at her dormmate, feeling a need to mention him. “Prince…”
“He’s playing too?” Qin Mo asked, turning to glance over once. There wasn’t any emotion on his face, just a fleeting glimpse.
But the cold hidden in his eyes was enough warning for Prince, he immediately expressed his sincerity, “No, no, no, I’m not interested in such games!”
Qin Mo chuckled, turning towards Bo Jiu. “Heard that?”
Bo Jiu wanted to say more because she couldn’t understand the drastic change in Prince.
Prince watched the both of them, his heart racing. It was horrifying. It felt as though the devil was still lingering. He took another step back, glancing at his team captain. “Who should I pair up with?”
Hunter finally had the chance to advise his underling. “Anyone is fine as long as he isn’t No. 10.”
With that, he reached out and pet his back.
Prince muttered, “You can’t blame me, I just realized he was so possessive over his brother.”
Hunter: …
On the other side, they were preparing for the competition. Even though it was an ordinary warm up, it was obvious the Almighty was in better shape.
Bo Jiu glanced over. Height was indeed not her strong point.
“What is it?” Sensing her gaze, Qin Mo glanced over.
Bo Jiu asked, “Does the camp sell milk?”
“Not at the moment.” Qin Mo asked casually, “You find yourself short?”
Bo Jiu chuckled. “I’m not short.”
“Judging by the length of your legs, you won’t be fast.” Qin Mo added casually, “You shorty.”
Bo Jiu: … He deserves a beating. This seems like their daily life. Novels were indeed lying when they claimed those teasing men would change once they entered a relationship. Where was his change? He was still the same as always, deserving of a beating!
“Stop pouting.” Qin Mo watched her, his voice coming through. “It makes me want to kiss you.”
At that sudden tease, Bo Jiu arched a brow. “Judging by the length of your legs, I won’t be easy to kiss.”
“12 cm, the golden distance for a kiss. Where’s the difficulty in that?” Qin Mo wore the arm guards before tilting over to watch Bo Jiu.
“It’s probably because my legs are short.” Bo Jiu passed her arm guards over. She broke into a smile when she realized the Almighty helped her with basically everything – just like a boyfriend.
Qin Mo chuckled lightly as he helped her wear the arm guards. They spoke in hushed tones, looking incredibly intimate. A pity it didn’t last long. It wasn’t long before the others caught sight of the Almighty. Even though they were wearing the same uniform, his face was too striking.
“Captain Qin is participating?”
“Are you serious? What’s the point of competing? Captain Qin will definitely win.”
“Didn’t he always avoid such activities in the past?”
The crowd roared.
Bo Jiu glanced over, asking in a hushed tone, “Brother Mo, why didn’t you participate in the past?”
“In the past?” Qin Mo stuffed a hand into his pocket, standing tall and firm, his tone leisurely. “Why should I when it wasn’t with my girlfriend?”
This meant he was participating to accompany her this time. Bo Jiu stilled, her face flushing. She rotated her angle and looked at the person beside her. Bo Jiu pressed down her fringe, looking young and full of vigor. With a long sigh, she exclaimed, “Brother Mo, I won’t be able to control myself if you continue to say such things. Hurry and shut up.”
Qin Mo chuckled. He wanted to pinch her face but there were people around. He clenched his fists, suppressing his urge.
Their cries continued as someone walked over towards them. “Captain Qin, isn’t entertainment the focus of this game? Your participation would take away all chances of a win. None of us can dismantle a gun as fast as you.”
Back then, video footage of Qin Mo’s gun dismantling skills were used to educate soldiers. The soldiers trained with his speed and accuracy in mind. They only had one thought when they saw the video – fast! He was so fast they could barely see the appearance of his hands.
It was only at the end of the video did they finally catch a glimpse of his delicate hands. Some were even skeptical about whether he was really a soldier because this pair of hands was more suited for the piano. But this very person’s face was more incredible than his hands. He belonged to the military unit, didn’t he?
The more they knew him, the more outstanding he was. Incredibly outstanding. It wasn’t because of his rank as a major general but rather the formidable aura that he radiated so casually and his exceptional combat conducting ability.
Many of the soldiers in this military unit were considered the top of their previous military units. But in front of him, they paled in comparison. Seeing him made them realize, there were two points they needed to keep in mind for future missions outside the borders.
One, never forget your identity as a soldier of China. Two, never disclose your identity as a soldier of China unless approval had been granted.
The entire operations team was well aware of the rules.
Even until this moment, the other soldiers in the military unit were still clueless about the missions Captain Qin and the operations team executed. This was the difference between missions in and out of the borders.
Perhaps, after many years when things have long passed, people would hear of their heroic tales. It was the same for sacrifices. Even so, there would always be people taking on such missions. The devil leading them was one such example.
Many times, we may think we know all of the heroes but in reality, heroes would never be exposed…
Qin Mo wasn’t aware of their thoughts. He lifted his chin, tapping the youngster beside him. “He will be in charge of the dismantling and assembling.”
