Chapter 483 - Took Me Seriously



Chapter 483 – Took Me Seriously

While walking around, she came across Zhai Yanjun. He had just found time to take a rest after the morning drill and seeing Xiang Wai, he wanted to just take a step back and leave. And that's exactly what he did, he indeed took a turn and wanted to leave.

"You! Stop right where you are!" came Xiang Wai's voice from behind.

Zhai Yanjun wanted to pretend like he didn't hear her. But how could she let that happen?

"Captain Zhai, aren't you getting gutsy? How dare you ignore your superior's order?"

Zhai Yanjun clenched his teeth and turned around. He raised his hand and gave her a salute. Xiang Wai almost rolled her eyes at his performance.

She beckoned him over with her two fingers. When he didn't, she didn't ask again. Instead, she stepped over to his side and said, "Are you that scared of me?"

"Nothing good comes out of staying with you," he replied to her.

Xiang Wai snickered, "Sure. I wasn't born to do good anyway." Noticing how he was still not paying any attention to her, she narrowed her eyes at him, "Come with me. I have something to talk to you about."

"I believe we have nothing to talk about," retorted Zhai Yanjun in defiance. "I believe you can't use your authority for personal matters? Especially when you're still suspended."

"Ah! Thanks for the reminder," said Xiang Wai. "Stop being a stuck up. It won't take long."

Zhai Yanjun thought about it for a moment before saying, "Fine. I'll see you at lunch. The usual place."

"Okay," agreed Xiang Wai and with that, she left.

Seeing her receding back, his brows furrowed up, "What are you up to now?" But of course, he won't be receiving an answer unless he asked this question to her. And that's what he intended to do as well. Even if they weren't part of the same squadron or unit, it didn't change the fact that she had a higher rank than him and he couldn't avoid her for life.

Xiang Wai was walking back to her car when she caught sight of something. When she saw two officers being all so sneaky, she didn't even have to think to know what they were up to. She followed them to the back of the building and coughed.

"Ahem!"

The two young officers were so startled that they trembled. When they turned to look at Xiang Wai's face, their faces paled. 

"Maj-Major Xiang!"

Xiang Wai extended her hand towards them, "Give it to me."

"What are you talking about, Major?"

Xiang Wai's face turned serious, "You either give it to me, or I'm gonna drag you to your commander."

They panicked and hurriedly shoved the pack of cigarettes and lighter into her hand saying, "Please, don't report it to the commander!"

Xiang Wai played with the lighter in her hand and shook her head, "Don't you know the rules of the base? How did you even enter the base if you don't know the rules?" She had an evil light in her eyes as she said, "How about I make you drink a glass of water mixed with cigarette ash?"

Just the thought of them made their faces change colors. They didn't want to go through that punishment. And they knew she wasn't lying. She'd actually do if she said she would. 

"30 runs around the ground with your luggage!" commanded Xiang Wai with a smile. 

"Huh?"

"40!" she raised the number just like that.

The two young officers took the run for their lives and hurriedly vanished. 

Xiang Wai looked at the cigarette in her hand and pushed it into her pocket. She went to her car and drove out of the base. The usual place that Zhai Yanjun was talking about was actually a small noodle restaurant near the military base. 

She arrived first and patiently waited for Zhai Yanjun. At precisely 12:10 pm he walked inside the restaurant and looked around. Finding her at their usual spot, he walked over, pulled the chair, and sat down.

Xiang Wai looked up at him and smiled, "You're here. I thought you'd not come."

"I said I'd come," he retorted. He suddenly frowned and shouted, "You're smoking again?"

Xiang Wai looked around at the other customers and pulled him down, "Take it easy and sit down. Don't make a scene out of nowhere."

"I'm making a scene?" he questioned. "I thought you stopped smoking!"

"I have quit," she told him. "And it's been years. The last time I smoked was back in high school. Do you have to bring it up again?"

"Then what's that?" Zhai Yanjun pointed at the pack of cigarettes peeking out of her pocket. "How can you lie to my face?"

Xiang Wai rolled her eyes, "It's not mine." She took out the cigarette and lighter, placing it on the table, "I confiscated it from people of your squadron. So, don't go around blaming me for everything. Not everything is always my fault."

"Really?" he asked. "The reason why we are here today is definitely because of you. How am I supposed to not blame you for everything?"

Xiang Wai calmly listened to him and sneered, "You're saying that our relationship failed because of me?"

"Isn't that the truth?" he rebutted. "It's you who was tired of this relationship. Not me."

Xiang Wai chuckled, "Zhai Yanjun, before questioning me, have you ever bothered to question yourself? If I got tired of trying, why did it happen? If I could cope with this relationship for ten years, what made me get tired of it?"

"You're saying it's because of me?" asked Zhai Yanjun.

"Is it that hard to believe?" questioned Xiang Wai. "This relationship ended because you wanted it to end. Not because I got tired of it. Don't act like a victim here."

"Why should I not end this relationship when you never even took me seriously?"

"My life's biggest mistake had been to always take you way more seriously than I was supposed to!" retorted Xiang Wai.
