Xia Jinyuan’s answer didn’t reassure Ye Jian. Instead, she felt even more worried.

She had accidentally bumped into him, who was also on a mission. Without thinking too deeply, she knew that he was hiding now. In a situation like this, what consequences would there be for him and a few fellows who wanted to stay alive to return?

Ye Jian couldn’t relax.

The moment he took her hand, Ye Jian gripped it harder. “What’s your mission? Can you tell us?”

“That’s right, Q King. What’s your mission? We’ll perfect it together and try to keep you from getting too involved in this.” White Crane was equally worried, but he knew better than to worry. He also knew that his comrade was too deeply involved in this mission to get away completely. He could only try his best not to get too involved.

Xia Jinyuan had already understood Ye Jian’s worry from her sudden grip on his hand. He curled his lips and revealed the arrogant smile that was unique to him. It was calm and revealed the confidence of the strong. “Antonio is an extremely arrogant arms dealer. He’s so arrogant that even the local government can’t afford to offend him. At the same time, he’s a guy who looks down on China and despises the Chinese. He likes to say how timid and cowardly the Chinese are. This has become his mantra.”

If he despised Chinese people, wouldn’t Captain Xia be in even more danger? Ye Jian’s breathing tightened.

Her change in mood did not escape Xia Jinyuan. His other hand, which was not clenched, patted the back of her hand gently. She was too nervous about him. He could feel her nervousness through the combat gloves.

“He looks down on the Chinese. He thinks that everyone in China is timid, cowardly, afraid of trouble, and never dares to voice out. Even the people around him have been affected by this. They naturally started to think that the Chinese are timid and afraid of trouble.”

He spoke quietly, but there was an unmistakable edge to his words.

Ye Jian and the other two clenched their fists when they heard this. An arms dealer looking down on their country was something that a soldier could not tolerate!

Only a strong country could intimidate the world. Only a strong country could let the world know that their country was not to be underestimated.

They were all soldiers. After wearing this military uniform, they had the responsibility to fight alongside the strong and powerful army.

Gunfire continued to ring out around them. The enemies who had suffered too many casualties were already retreating as they fought. They did not dare to continue fighting, afraid that they would fall into a pool of blood as well.

If not for Xia Jinyuan’s instructions to keep them alive, the Xueyu unit would have definitely killed these guys who looked down on China.

Xia Jinyuan knew that his words would make his comrades angry, but that was the truth. Antonio was not the only one who looked down on China. Many countries in the West did. Even some countries in Asia looked down on them.

This was a fact they had to admit. Only by admitting it could they progress.

He continued in a low voice, “I’m sure that he must now think that some local gang received money from a Chinese company to fight him. He wouldn’t expect China to send troops to rescue the engineers.

“He was sitting in the helicopter just now. He left things to his subordinates and was at ease. From this, you can tell how conceited he is. I was worried that the high-ranking mercenaries around him would harm you. However, it seems that these mercenaries were also affected by him, so they thought that they could easily resolve what Antonio instructed them to do.”
