It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

Chapter 1237 A Bad Premonition.

“Ugh, why do I get five days?” Qi Long said frustratingly

“Being disrespectful to the general and disrespectful to your parents. Additionally, you went against the rules of the division. You’re being punished for numerous crimes. Five days is considered a light punishment,” Ling Lan said calmly. action

“Going against the rules of the division? Boss?” Qi Long remembered he had called Ling Lan ‘Boss’ at the beginning. However, he wasn’t the only one who broke the rules. There was still... His gaze moved towards Luo Chao and Han Xuya. The two of them saw him looking at them and instantly threatened him with their glares. If he was going to sell them out, they were going to eat him alive.

Suddenly, he felt a coldness seeping deep into his bones. Qi Long turned around and saw his Boss look at him with a half-smile on his face. That look was like blades of ice piercing his bones and was cutting through his body.

Ugh, how could he forget. Luo Chao and Han Xuya were Boss’s fiancées. How could Boss have the heart to punish them... Qi Long felt a feeling of regret in his mind. If he had known it was going to be like this, he wouldn’t have contacted Ling Lan.

“Yes, I understand.” Qi Long didn’t dare to sell out Luo Chao and Han Xuya and could only accept Ling Lan’s punishment.

Seeing everyone present, Ling Lan told them her plan. All in all, they must continue to stay on Base Feiyu if she didn’t give them any other orders. If something unexpected were to occur and they were unable to contact her, then they would contact General Qi Yaoyang and obey General Qi Yaoyang’s orders. Other than the two of them, they must not accept any orders from others or other departments. That included the three marshals and General Ling Xiao.

After those words were said, everyone was in shock. It should be known that the three marshals were basically the rulers of the military. Even the 23 divisions would have difficulty disobeying their orders, not to mention their independent army. Plus, General Ling Xiao was Ling Lan’s father, but Ling Lan wanted them to ignore General Ling Xiao’s orders. What had happened between the two of them? Why did things develop into something they couldn’t understand after being apart from their commander only for a few days?

“I know my father. He wouldn’t go past me and order you around.” Ling Lan looked at the shocked expression on everyone’s faces and explained, “This order for relocation is most likely a plot against my father and I, so I had to keep a trump card in my hand just in case.”

After saying all that, Ling Lan’s expressions suddenly turned sharp, “You guys are the trump card I’m keeping to the end. Nothing must happen to you. As long as you guys are safe, we will be able to turn the tide at the crucial moment.”

Feeling the heavy responsibility on them, Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong’s expression changed instantly. Their commander was clearly setting up a huge plan and was planning on fighting a ruthless battle with the opposition. They were a seemingly useless piece of the puzzle, but they were actually the lynchpin of the entire plan.

“Remember what I said. Your mission is to try your best to protect yourselves. No matter what happens, don’t let yourselves get dragged into the mess. That’s the only way we’ll have a chance to have a future.” Ling Lan reminded everyone cautiously once again.

Everyone all shouted in agreement. Ling Lan then disconnected the video call with a satisfied face.

The entire control room was completely silent. Liu Furong rubbed his face in frustration and then asked Yang Mingzhi, “Mingzhi, what do you think our commander meant?”

Yang Mingzhi, who was usually calm and collected, couldn’t contain his anxiousness. He spoke in a worried tone, “How would I know?”

“This plan gives a bad feeling.” Qi Long scratched his head intensely. His instincts told him that the situation was not good. However, he didn’t know why it was not good.

“Everyone stop thinking about it too much. Boss likely has a backup plan,” said Han Jijyun as he saw everyone panicking from Ling Lan’s plan.

“Let’s hope that’s the case.” Everyone, who couldn’t find the reason for the order given to them, could only hope for the best. However, everyone still felt a bit uneasy.

At that moment, they understood how important Ling Lan was to them. As long as Ling Lan was with them, even if they were in Base 013 facing death in the eye, they would never cower in fear. That was because their commander, their Boss, was with them. That gave them enough courage to face all the difficulties they would encounter.

“I’m really jealous of Luo Lang and Xie Yi. Back then I should have just stayed in the base no matter what.” Zhao Jun sighed. If he had known it was going to be like this, he would have hugged Boss’s leg and cried and begged to not leave. That way he wouldn’t be here and be feeling anxious.

“Yeah, yeah, if only Luo Lang and them were here,” Qi Long also thought of this and immediately responded.

“You think our Boss is going to change the orders?” Han Jijyun’s statement broke Zhao Jun and Qi Long’s thoughts. “Choosing the ten of us was the result of careful consideration by our Boss.”

After hearing this, everyone looked toward Han Jijyun and waited for him to explain.

“With Qi Long here, if by chance we were in trouble, General Qi wouldn’t just sit idle and watch.” Seeing Qi Long wanting to respond to his statement, Han Jijyun smiled coldly and cut him off, “You’re going to tell me that you and your father don’t get along? If that was really the case, would Uncle Qi and General Ling Xiao become such close friends? Wasn’t it because you work under Boss and Boss is Ling Xiao’s son? When are you going to stop deceiving yourself?”

Ling Lan’s order also forced Han Jijyun to think. Han Jijyun couldn’t help but become angry at Qi Long even though he would usually endure and let go of Qi Long’s irrational reactions.

“I didn’t say anything,” Qi Long said helplessly. He couldn’t disagree with Han Jijyun because Han Jijyun spoke the truth. He indeed had the courage to speak against his father because he wasn’t afraid of him and he knew his father actually cared the most for him. Qi Long seemed to be honest and earnest, but underneath that bubbly smile was an individual who was villainous and calculating. He understood everything perfectly. Playing dumb and acting blunt was only to let others to perceive him as such.

“Vice Commander Yang, although your background isn’t clear to us, everyone still managed to guess it more or less. Our commander picked you to leave Base Nebula and take control of the situation here is probably because he wants to borrow the power of the First Marshal.” Han Jijyun knew the situation was dire and changed his tone from the usual non-offensive way of speaking to a more passive-aggressive approach.

Yang Mingzhi heard this and instantly smiled bitterly. “That is true. Thank you for everyone’s tolerance of me. I had once spoken to Vice Commander Liu that as long as our commander doesn’t betray the Federation, I would always be a member of Lingtian and never betray him.”

Everyone looked towards Liu Furong. Liu Furong nodded with a serious expression on his face to show that Yang Mingzhi was speaking the truth.

Everyone’s expressions loosened a bit. As for the battle team members who followed Ling Lan from the beginning and grew into an independent army, in their minds, they only saw Ling Lan as their Boss. If someone dared to offend their Boss, they would toss them aside heartlessly. Even if it was their vice commander, Yang Mingzhi, the Sagittarius.
