Chapter 1148: When Rivals Meet and Jealousy Arises
Although the people who would be inspecting the base camp were highly regarded by the military, they still did not belong to the military and had to be chaperoned by high-rank officers. Hence, there was nothing much for Xu Zhenyu to prepare apart from adjusting the training programs and activities appropriately.
Xu Zhenyu was well aware that if the inspection was really that important to the base camp, he would not be the one making arrangements at all. After all, he was just a Military major who had been transferred to the base camp for a month, even though he was the heir of the Xu family.
He felt a sense of relief after thinking it through.
He had already prepared everything that he had to after making adjustments to the training program and communicated with a few commanders.
At this moment, the people conducting the inspection arrived.
Xu Zhenyu and a few other inspectors accompanied the senior officer to welcome them.
Two cars pulled up slowly by the base camp and the chaperons alighted followed by the two colonels, who then opened the door of the other car.
An admiral alighted together with a man who was dressed in camo.
Xu Zhenyu took a long glance at the admiral before looking away and shifting his gaze onto the man in camo.
The man had his head cocked towards the side and only his side profile could be seen. However, he looked stern and cold in the green camo uniform, which he carried perfectly. He exuded a formidable and domineering aura.
At the same time, he also appeared a little threatening.
Xu Zhenyu frowned, finding him to be rather familiar looking.
Just as he was deep in thought, Xu Zhenyu unexpectedly made eye contact with Si Yiyan, whose eyes were cold, menacing and fierce. They seemed to overpower the fiery look in Xu Zhenyu’s eyes.
Si Yiyan looked away calmly and said to the senior officer, “Please pardon me for showing up out of the blue.”
The senior officer said, “Please don’t say that, Mr. Si. It’s our honor to have you here.”
Since Si Yiyan was permitted entry even to Base Camp No. 7, they obviously had to treat him with much respect.
Xu Zhenyu pulled a long face while watching Si Yiyan have a joyous conversation with the senior officer.
He totally did not expect Si Yiyan to be the one conducting the inspection.
It’s the man who beat me to rescuing Xinya from danger twice and even took advantage of me.
What does he have to do with Xinya?
Is he really here only to inspect?
It’s too coincidental!
Si Yiyan said smilingly, “I heard that you guys are accommodating the freshmen military training program.”
The senior officer answered with a smile, “This time, we’re hosting the students from the Capital University’s faculty of history and design.”
Si Yiyan smiled, appearing extremely interested.
The senior officer could tell that he was very interested. He wheeled Xu Zhenyu out and said, “This is Major Xu Zhenyu. He’s one of the commanders in charge of the military training program. He’s in charge of training the students from the faculty of design.”
Si Yiyan then shifted his gaze onto Xu Zhenyu.
It was Si Yiyan’s first time seeing Xu Zhenyu so up close. He realized how much Xu Zhenyu had grown within such a short period of time. Compared to three years ago, Xu Zhenyu was no longer as puerile as he used to be. However, he still could not take Xu Zhenyu seriously.
However, Xu Zhenyu seemed just like a fierce wolf that was exuding a domineering menace.
Xu Zhenyu squinted and introduced himself while everyone stared at him. “I’m Major Xu Zhenyu from this base camp. Welcome to the base camp, Mr. Si.”
At this moment, Xu Zhenyu was no longer as calm as he appeared to be on the surface. This Mr. Si is indeed here to watch the military training program.
What is so attractive about the military training?
Well, to put it simply, he’s just here for Wen Xinya!
This man saved Wen Xinya time and time again. Is it solely because of him being Old Mr. Mo’s student? I’m not an innocent and naive kid.
He expressed his intentions clearly.
Si Yiyan said, “Thank you, Major Xu.”
Both Si Yiyan and Xu Zhenyu knew of each other’s existence as well as the threat that they posed to each other. Although they met each other on several occasions, they had yet to meet formally.
“Major Xu, show Mr. Si and Admiral Nie around the base camp.” The senior officer used to be from the reconnoitering unit in the army, which specialized in observing. Although he did not deliberately observe the interaction between Xu Zhenyu and Si Yiyan, he could acutely sense the tension in the air.
Xu Zhenyu saluted and answered, “Yes, Sir!”
Next, Xu Zhenyu brought Si Yiyan to the base camp and showed him around the facilities. He also performed his duty to a T by explaining to him in detail the situation of the soldiers.
Although it was not considered an important base camp, it was rather significant to the military, especially in Capital city. The base camp played a part in nurturing several competent soldiers. Old Mr. Xu chose to transfer Xu Zhenyu there, because he wanted the latter to undergo rigorous training and have a better future.
Si Yiyan asked, “Where are the freshmen? Why don’t I see them training?”
Xu Zhenyu said, “The freshmen are training in the back.”
Next, Xu Zhenyu brought Si Yiyan to the training ground at the back.
The training that the freshmen were going through was far less strenuous than the soldiers. Hence, they were just practicing military stances and drills for show.
As soon as Si Yiyan entered the training ground, he knew that the students from the faculty of design were not training. “Thank you for accompanying me to take a tour around the base camp, Major Xu.”
He had already expressed clearly that he did not need to be chaperoned for the rest of the observation.
Xu Zhenyu smiled widely with a tinge of smugness. “In that case, feel free to take a look around the place, Mr. Si. I shall take my leave because I have something on. If there are any issues, just get a soldier to relay the message to me.”
He doesn’t want me to accompany him, but it’s not like I wanted to in the first place. Who would want to waste their time following someone else around?
You must be disappointed because you couldn’t see Wen Xinya, right!?!
Haha, I knew what you were up to.
After Xu Zhenyu left, Si Yiyan smiled. The difference between him and Xu Zhenyu was that he would rather stay by his enemy’s side regardless of how much he did not want to. Victory only happens when he successfully gets rid of his enemy.
Don’t think you can win just because we’re on your territory!
