Chapter 524: Running Away With A Tail Between Their Legs
“Battling Dragons really can’t compare to you all!” Chief Yuan chorused what Chu Ning said swiftly. Elated and impressed by such talent from Yun Jian, his comment came without much thought when it was Chu Ning who was from the same team as Yun Jian who spoke.
As an easygoing person, Chief Yuan was straightforward with his words and had a candid personality. He was not someone to mince his words to avoid offenses.
Therefore, when he had openly stated that Battling Dragons could not compare to Team Monarch right in front of Ai Guoxun and everyone of Battling Dragons, he was not at all worried about affronting them. He was their superior anyway!
On the other hand, how could Yu Luo take it when her superior was blatantly pointing out that her team was lacking compared to Yun Jian’s? She was not Battling Dragons’ leader but she was also a guiding captain.
The same position in Team Monarch was led by Yun Jian, so Yu Luo and Yun Jian were basically right at odds with each other.
Now that Battling Dragons were said to pale next to Team Monarch, it was—in a way—saying that Yu Luo was weaker than Yun Jian. It was what Yu Luo could not stand the most, being called weaker than others.
While Yun Jian had not said that, the words coming from Chief Yuan meant something different. If Yun Jian had called Yu Luo inadequate, it would probably anger Yu Luo less than when the same words came from Chief Yuan.
Ai Guoxun was already glaring daggers at Yu Luo and her team from the side. He had invested all his effort in them but they failed him?
“Haha, we’re all under the same military roof. Losing or winning doesn’t matter, it’s of utmost importance to put peace above everything else! That’s all to this duel then. All of you should keep the spirit and continue working hard!” Chief Yuan patted Ge Junjian and Ai Guoxun’s shoulder with a chuckle as he spoke with beaming eyes.
With that, he draped his coat over himself and left with some polite excuses.
Someone like Chief Yuan must definitely have a lot of work to deal with.
Once Chief Yuan left, Ai Guoxun scoffed at Ge Junjian before barking at Battling Dragons, “Humph, let’s go!”
Yu Luo and her team scowled at Yun Jian and her team too. The undisguised dirty look meant a lot like “This isn’t done”.
Chu Ning and Chu Xiangnan glowered back at Yu Luo and team until they left with a snap of head.
“My goodness, are they even human!” Chu Xiangnan cried, pointing at Ai Guoxun and Battling Dragons’ retreating back.
“Luckily we won.” Jiang Weiwei wore a rare smile as she directed her gaze to Yun Jian. She had looked down at Yun Jian in the beginning but Yun Jian was a professional. She could lead the entire team!
“You’ve managed to keep your spots as the Advanced Special Forces.” Ge Junjian sighed in relief and offered a kind smile. Looking at his team, he said, “We’ll return to the hotel later and stay the night in F Province according to plan. You can tour around the province’s busier area at night.”
“Officer Ge, are you going with us?” Chu Ning cheered gleefully before turning to invite Ge Junjian.
“I’m an old man. There’s no need for me to shop here. You can go ahead but don’t come back too late when you go have fun at night.” Ge Junjian was gentle with them. He was stern in training but when it was time to relax, he made sure they did just that.
“I’m not going too.” Yun Jian pursed her lips and stretched standing on the spot.
“No way! Yun Jian’er, you have to go! Come have fun with us!” Amidst Chu Ning’s whine, all of them went back to their reserved hotel happily.
