Face Slapping the General

Chapter 40 First confession

Wu Qiao asked in a daze, “…a lie?”

“Yes.”

“Say…what lie?”

“Wu Qiao.” Tan Yan lowered his eyes, “I…I don’t know how to say it, but…I always hope that in war, I can do everything I can to protect you, and in peace, you can I prepare dinner for you every day to make you live a leisurely life.”

Speaking out-Tan Yan didn’t think it was that difficult either.

“…” Wu Qiao’s eyes widened. He thought: What is the admiral… talking about? He really knows what he is talking about?

“I’m not good.” Tan Yan looked a little bit self-defeating. “I just want to tell you that I really want to be with you forever. It’s definitely not a future.”

“Admiral……!!!” Wu Qiao didn’t expect to hear these words at all.

His heart thumped, his blood flow increased, and his head felt dizzy. This is the first time he has been confessed in his life, and he doesn’t even know how to deal with it. In the past, 99% of people were annoying him, and it was better to enter the army. “Someone just likes his character” seems to be very far away, let alone that person is still talking about it.

After a while, Wu Qiao asked, “Admiral…this time and last time…Which time is the truth?”

“It wasn’t the truth last time.”

“But…” Wu Qiao asked softly, “Why lie?”

“…” Tan Yan has never seen Wu Qiao’s face. “Because of being afraid of rejection, you feel that I am a failure, and I am afraid that you will hide from me, even the current dependence is gone.”

“……afraid?”

“Ok.”

“…” Wu Qiao felt that the word fear was really difficult to associate with Tan Yan. Wu Qiao remembered that Admiral Tan Yan participated in a battle when he was twenty-four years old. At that time, the strength of the enemy and us were very different. His chief quickly decided to give up resistance and leave as soon as possible. However, the position of that fortress was important. The chief was worried that the “retreat without a fight” would cause dissatisfaction among the civilians of the Empire, disappointment with the Imperial Army and even scold the military, so he left Tan Yan with that unit fighting alone. Just call it to others. After that battle was over, Tan Yan’s army could be said to be annihilated. In the end, only Tan Yan survived. After the mecha broke and fell into the sea, he survived a catastrophe. The name Tan Yan has since been known to the empires. What else would you be afraid of in such a talk?

“Wu Qiao.” Tan Yan asked again, “Do you believe what I just said.”

“Huh?” Wu Qiao stunned, then replied, “Believe. I have always trusted you absolutely.” Last time, he believed it. This time, Tan Yan said that it was a lie last time, but he still believed it. Even if Tan Yan said that he was lying next time, he would still believe it. It stands to reason that the other party is so erratic, he should have doubts, but Wu Qiao believed it again.

“So,” Tan Yan asked again, “What do you think?”

“What do I think?”

“You… agree to let me stay by your side, do you still mature with your growth?”

“…”

Tan Yan began to seduce Wu Qiao, “I can listen to you patiently about your ideals, and I can teach you everything I know.”

“…” Well… Wu Qiao thought to himself, it sounds really good. In this way, he will finally be able to share with others those things that no one would like to hear before, and he will also be able to get a lot of valuable experience that will benefit a lifetime from the other party.

“Isn’t that great? You don’t need to do anything.”

“…No need to do anything?” Wu Qiao repeated foolishly.

“In fact, it can’t be regarded as…nothing needs to be done.” Tan Yan’s voice changed a little, “you just call me…that…just call “husband”, just fine.”

Wu Qiao thought for a while, and immediately got a fever on his face. Regardless of what the most respected admiral is called “husband” or something, this fact is too shameful.

I didn’t say it at all, just thinking about it, I felt a little at a loss.

He was silent, and Tan Yan was also silent, as if waiting for him, giving him time to consider, as if he was afraid that he would simply refuse in a hurry.

People always seem to be like this, and they don’t even dare to show up when they wait for the answer from the other party. This is actually quite interesting-what if one urges it to produce a good result? However, no one dares to bet, they are afraid they will regret it.

Wu Qiao carefully thought about how he felt with the admiral.

Should… or not love. However, he doesn’t know whether love is round or square.

Because he had no experience, Wu Qiao was not sure, so he clicked on the web page and started to inquire about knowledge.

Soon, he turned to a love scale built by a certain scholar, and he could self-test whether he liked it or loved it, and he started answering questions item by item like a treasure.

The first question… When he (she) is depressed, I think the very important duty is to make him happy.

Yes… Wu Qiao chose “in line” and wrote a point on the paper. He hopes that Tan Yan will be relaxed and not always burdened with heavy things.

The second question, I can trust him (her) in everything.

Yes… A feeling of complete peace of mind at that time. Wu Qiao wrote another point on the paper.

…

The seventh question, if I am lonely, the first thing that comes to my mind is to find him (her).

Yes… Wu Qiao found out that he was really attached to him, and the other person could always restore his peace.

…

Question eleven, if I can also trust him (her) 100%, I feel very happy.

Yes. Wu Qiao wanted to be a reliable person and share some responsibilities for each other-Tan Yan was really tired, and people seemed to have forgotten them all. Tan Yan was only in his early thirties.

Question 12, when I am with him (her), I will always look at him with my eyes.

Yes…but that should be because the other person is pretty…?

Question 13: Without him (her), I find it difficult to live well.

Hmm… Wu Qiao thought for a long time. If Tan Yan draws a clear line with him…it wouldn’t be enough if he can’t live, but it seems to be…a little bit boring, a large piece of it will be stripped off, nothing can be filled, and leisure time will become tasteless, even though his leisure time There is not much time. Wu Qiao felt this way for the first time recently. In the past, no matter how good friends are, Su Yiqing, it doesn’t matter if you don’t contact for a long time, because you understand that the relationship is always there, and you won’t lose a point because of negligence, but occasionally miss the other person very much. But now… if the subject is changed to Tan Yan, they look forward to spending time together every day, whether they talk face-to-face or communicate remotely. There are too many words to finish, and every time I chat, my mood will get better. After the end, the meaning is always still unfinished. No matter what new things happen, Wu Qiao will keep it in his heart and plan to tell him at night. He never knew that just talking can be very happy.

If this kind of expectation is gone, maybe it can’t be said to be very good-he has high requirements for “very good”, and if it is not good at all, it will not be “very good”.

So, let’s just choose “conformity” for the time being…

A few minutes later, Wu Qiao finished all 26 questions.

The “love” part of the first 13 questions puts more emphasis on intimacy, attachment and care, while the “like” part of the last 13 questions pays more attention to respect and admiration, such as thinking that he is smart, always wanting to learn from him, and thinking. Becoming someone like him…this kind of feeling is more like infatuation.

The test instructions say that which part of the score is higher indicates where the feelings are more biased.

However, his two parts are equally divided… Wu Qiao was at a loss again, indicating that what should be done if the same score is not written on it.

In the part of “love”, Wu Qiao chose “No” in total only two: One is, no matter what he (she) does, I am willing to forgive, and the other is that I think it is one to ignore his (her) fault. It’s easy.

No matter who the other party is, Wu Qiao doesn’t think he can do this. Wrong is wrong, and it will not become normal just because it is someone.

In the “like” part, there are still two choices of “no”: “I think anyone who gets along with him (her) has a good impression of him (her and “I think he (she) is in all the things I know.” One of the people is very likable.”

Tan Yan’s personality is too strong. According to Wu Qiao’s knowledge, this is definitely not the case. You can only choose whether or not for these two questions.

The scores in both parts are very high.

Wu Qiao looked at the two scores.

As a result, after the test, I still can’t tell whether I prefer to like or love…

Is it possible to have both?

Wu Qiao looked at the explanation over and over again, and found that it didn’t say whether he could be infatuated and in love with someone.

When Wu Qiao took the test seriously, Tan Yan felt that he was going crazy.

After confession, he finally realized what kind of mood he was waiting for someone to answer.

Tan Yan felt that his heart was beating all the time, rushing everywhere but couldn’t find the way out. The surrounding air seems to have frozen, and even breathing is no longer easy.

But, in this atmosphere, what is the guy on the opposite side doing? !

That guy… with one hand resting on his cheek, the other hand sketching on the paper–

Is he torturing himself on purpose? Let yourself wait like this?

“…Admiral.” Wu Qiao counted for a long time, and finally counted, but he was still not sure, “Sorry…I can’t promise you.”

“…” Tan Yan couldn’t help but wonder why.

“I…” Wu Qiao took the initiative to explain to the other party, “I’m not sure I have love for you.”

Tan Yan: “…”

Sure enough, he didn’t love him.

He didn’t know how he should react. Before, he envisioned this situation and decided to say “I understand” lightly when the time comes. However, by this day, he can’t get up or get up anyway. He wants to smile and face. There is no expression on it. He had anticipated this kind of result a long time ago. To express his heart is just to leave no regrets, but even with sufficient preparations, the heavy loss when he really hears this sentence is still wave after wave. .

It turns out that the gap between “having a little bit of hope” and “a little hope not coming true” can be so big. Obviously speaking, in reality, that little hope is not the same as not having it. Too much can be completely ignored. It turns out, can it cause such a big impact on people?

“Yes.” On the other side of the screen, Wu Qiao repeated as if he was deciding something, “I’m not sure I have love for you…so I can’t promise anything now.”

As for Wu Qiao’s character, he is not 100% sure, and he won’t try it silly.

Tan Yan pretended to be calm, but actually took a deep breath and finally said the phrase “I understand.”

“I am sorry.”

“Nothing I’m sorry.” Tan Yan was always worried, so he still asked, “What were you thinking during that period of time?”

“……Ok?”

“I haven’t spoken for a long time.”

“Oh,” Wu Qiao suddenly said, “I was doing the test just now.”

“What test?”

“Test what your feelings are.”

Tan Yan: “…”

Wu Qiao also said: “The result is, probably, is not love?” He did not say that the scores of the two parts of “like” and “love” are the same, and both are almost full.

Tan Yan: “…”

Wu Qiao said again: “Because…”

Tan Yan interrupted him: “Needless to say.”

“Ok?”

“Needless to say.” Tan Yan smiled bitterly, “You will find a problem to do, it will explain the problem.”

At most, there is a little love, in short, it is definitely not a lot.

“…” Wu Qiao said nothing. He could not refute.

Tan Yan said again: “If you like me like me, you will know clearly that you want to be with him.”

“…”

“So,” Tan Yan said, “For now, let’s forget it, I don’t want that either.” Tan Yan also didn’t want to fool people over. He hopes that the two people truly love each other and join hands for the rest of their lives. His identity determines that his life cannot be peaceful and smooth. If his lover does not love him so much, it may be difficult to go with him for a long time. It is easy to be together, but it is difficult to experience strong winds and waves together. Only deep feelings can guarantee a good result after the wave of robbery. Recklessly pulling Wu Qiao in can satisfy him but hurt Wu Qiao. What Tan Yan wants to give him is the best future-even if he begins to experience hardships, the flowers will always bloom undefeated in the end.

“…Thank you.” Wu Qiao said sincerely. He wants to sort out his own feelings, and it takes time to do so.

After coming out of the room, Wu Qiao saw Su Yiqing.

“Why did you go?” Wu Qiao asked him.

“Ah,” Su Yiqing smiled, “Daily routine activities, take a walk with Ji Yao.”

“……Oh.”

“He will be on duty at night, and I will go back to the dormitory by myself.”

“Su Yiqing.” Wu Qiao looked at his friend and suddenly asked, “How did you find that you fell in love with Ji Yao?”

“Huh?” Su Yiqing was stunned, then lowered her head for a moment. “This matter is too far away… It’s all from middle school… Why are you asking this suddenly?”

“…Forget it.”

“Wait, wait.” Su Yiqing stopped him, “Who said I don’t remember?”

“……you remember?”

“Of course.” Su Yiqing said, “How can you forget that stage of ambiguity and temptation? Even if you forget anything, you won’t forget it.”

“You didn’t blame me this time?”

“Are you worthy of my condemnation?” He didn’t really blame Wu Qiao, but the number of times has not been much recently. Wu Qiao believed him very much and would be fooled every time. Su Yiqing felt boring even more frequently. And although Wu Qiao was not doing well, Su Yiqing felt a little guilty.

Wu Qiao asked: “Then…?”

“That’s right,” Su Yiqing became more serious when he mentioned Ji Yao, “I pay much attention to his every move. When I see him, I will be very happy. When I don’t see him, I will miss it very much. I want to be with him for the rest of my life. ”

“…Is that so?” It doesn’t seem to be a very mysterious thing…

“Otherwise, what else do you want?”

“……I do not know.”

He really didn’t know.

According to these indicators, he seems to be a little tempted to Tan Yan… He paid attention to him before he met Tan Yan, and paid more attention to him after he met him, and he wished to meet him 24 hours a day.

But, maybe as Tan Yan said, it’s actually just one point. But at this point, it still won’t work, there is no guarantee that it will not hurt others or hurt yourself.

…

After a while, Wu Qiao always pondered this matter.

What Tan Yan said suddenly, really felt very unrealistic.

Promise?

If you agree, you will share the bed with the general…

Just think about it, it’s another heartbeat.

He wanted to know how much his “little” love was.

This incident even affected his training a bit.

Fortunately, one day, Darrell announced that the intelligence agency had analyzed the location of the head of the Serpent’s Wings based on clues.

The news finally made him nervous and stopped thinking about it all day long.

“In order to prevent changes, we immediately bombed there.” Darrell said.

“…”

“We will cooperate with the other two troops, because the opponent is still the wings of the dragon after all, and we must not take it lightly.”

“……Yes.”

Only one day later, the action was approved.

The code name of the operation was “Dragon Fruit”, and the top commander was Lieutenant General You Tiao.

Youtiao drew the elite fighters from the three units and reorganized them into three special mixed fleets, with multiple formations under each special mixed fleet.

Several adjustments in the number of people were finally finalized.

For the assault team, you choose carefully. He also temporarily borrowed several newest mechas and commandos from the empire, responsible for finally breaking into the underground structures of the base, vowing to take the boss’s first rank, and witnessing the death of the opponent with his own eyes.

They also prepared a device for preserving the corpse, which can be used to bring the leader of the organization back to the Empire for DNA testing after it has been bombed beyond recognition. It is not uncommon to use other people’s corpses to escape tracking bombing targets, so DNA testing is necessary.

Ya Jiu was divided into several formations that needed to land first because of his extremely fast speed.

Their task is to land at any cost, destroy the defensive devices on the other side’s ground, and flatten a large piece of land selected in advance to create the best conditions for the subsequent ground combat formations and landing formations.

…

When the day of the official action came, everyone was very excited.

After today, they have won the war.

That leader has always been the spiritual pillar of the organization. Although his death does not announce the complete disintegration of the organization, at least it officially announces that their era of prosperity is over.

In the past few years, they have been carrying out activities without interruption, causing at least tens of thousands of civilians to die, and from time to time they have attacked the ships stationed by the imperial army in various places. Wu Qiao actually does not understand their definition of “victory”. It seems that even if the lives of 5,000 members of the organization caused the deaths of 1,000 imperial soldiers, they also believed that they were victorious. If they were lucky enough to blow up an imperial army The military base of the country, it was as happy as if it had already ruled the empire.

Naturally, this annoying organization caused far less casualties to the empire than the invasion of the Republic, but if it could not be destroyed, it really made people very suspicious of the strength of the empire.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fragmentation of the Xianglong Wings funding chain during this period, the empire began to frantically clean up and suppress the opponent from the dead. Darrell and the three other units are looking for the bombing target day and night, and as soon as they find it, they will immediately drop bombs with dense raindrops.

Now, it’s finally time to declare victory——

At 20 o’clock in the evening, Wu Qiao and his formation began to act in accordance with the order, under the command of Darrell himself.

“Go!” After Darrell ordered the attack, he finally repeated the combat plan, “After reaching the sky, drop the fake mecha! After causing interference, land quickly!”

“Yes.” Wu Qiao expressed his understanding.

Those fake mechas can automatically simulate the sound of gunfire, gunfire, communication and dialogue, beams, cannonballs, and various smoke and dust after landing, resulting in the effect of having landed.

When the opponent is disturbed and takes a “counterattack” action, the actual landing troops will observe the enemy’s firepower, and then purposefully destroy the base defense system.

It was a very good plan, but…

Just when the mecha group was very close to the base, something happened suddenly!

Wu Qiao only saw the few mechas in front of him out of control in an instant, it was definitely not artificially deviating from the path of travel!

The mecha fell apart, and some mecha fragments flew in front of him without warning, and one of them even hit Ya Jiu, making a “boom”!

“…” By the way, this is no longer a state close to a vacuum in the universe, and some sounds can be heard.

But what is going on? !

“Ajiu!” Wu Qiao immediately issued an order without knowing what happened, “Slow down and stop! Take back your wings! Shrink into a ball!”

“Oh!” Ya Jiu had a low IQ and immediately obeyed, “swish” retracted the six wings, and rolled them into a ball, no matter how funny the posture was. Then Wu Qiao realized that they had gotten from two wings. The thin black thread passed through the middle, and the thin thread almost brushed past them!

“Metal mesh!” Wu Qiao roared, “There is a metal mesh!”

Damn, what kind of material is it? ! Or, what material is coated on the outside of the metal wire? ! Why all kinds of detection equipment have no response? !

By the way… Wu Qiao remembered that before, the day before Sheng Zhongguang’s death, the warship they saw could also escape detection.

So, is it the same new material as that time…?

After decelerating and stagnating, Wu Qiao looked intently-one by one thin, long but extremely hard metal wire, hung by a hot air balloon-like object, spreading from the ground into the high air, like a handle. The sharp blade, the pitch-black color is almost completely invisible in the night.

When the thin wings of the mechas flying at high speed hit these wires, they were cut off abruptly!

Out of control is of course!

“Darrell!” Wu Qiao immediately contacted everyone he has permission to contact at the same time-his five subordinates and the commander of the formation, “Tell them all to stop behind! There is a metal net here!”

“…What?!” Darrell was also taken aback.

Darrell ordered everyone to stand by.

“Darrell.” Wu Qiao suggested, “Do you want to ask Yujo for instructions? After this scene just now, the other party must have noticed it.”

“I will ask for instructions.” Darrell said, “Don’t stop and blow up the metal net. Be careful.”

“Blow up the metal net… the action… do you want to continue?” This obviously opened the way for people behind.

“I think Yutaka will choose to continue.” Darrell said: “The opportunity is too rare. If you miss this time, let him change the base, I don’t know how long it will take to find it again.”

Wu Qiao knew that he wanted to persuade Yutiao to continue his actions.

“But…” Wu Qiao said, “I always feel… the other party already knew our actions in advance.”

A temporary base is so carefully arranged, is it really just in case? Wu Qiao can see that the installation of the thin wire takes a lot of time.

Wu Qiao has no reason to persuade people, but his instinct has always been very accurate. Just like when he was undercover in Xianglong Wings before, Jose, who instinctively feels that he only loves killing and sex, would be particularly strange for stock analysts. Afterwards, it turns out that Jose, as the upper management of the organization, would know that. The name is really because the other party is making a lot of money for them.

This time, Wu Qiao felt that their action had already been known in advance by the other party.
