Seeing that persuasion failed, Lu Wenjie resorted to force. She picked up the phone, "What's the rush? I'll make a call first."
"Beep..."
"Hello? Wenjie?"
Lu Wenjie said, "Uncle Qiduo, someone is bullying me. You can come in now."
A thunderous voice came from the phone, "Son of a bitch! Who dares! I'll be there in a minute!"
Soon, Captain Qiduo, wearing his uniform and leading twenty special forces soldiers, rushed in. They were probably fresh from training.
"Wenjie, what happened?" Captain Qiduo greeted Lu Wenjie warmly and rushed over first.
So close, Mingzhi Tian sensed an iron-willed aura emanating from this person, the will of a soldier forged through countless battlefield victories.
In no time, the twenty soldiers raised their guns and surrounded everyone inside from the perimeter.
Conversely, Captain Zhong Chi's side turned and pointed their guns outwards, forming a tense standoff, neither side backing down.
"Captain Zhong Chi?" Captain Qiduo said, "How have you been?"
Captain Zhong Chi's face darkened. He hadn't expected to run into such a tough opponent today. "You too. It's been a long time."
Captain Qiduo said, "Still alive. What, aren't you training with the Sixth Team, but running around the city causing trouble?"
Captain Zhong Chi's expression sank. "Same to you. Aren't you supposed to be training with the Divine Eagle Team and not meddling in other people's business?"
"Meddling?" Captain Qiduo immediately bristled. "Wenjie is the younger sister of my direct superior. Her affairs are my affairs, Qiduo's affairs. You actually call it... meddling?"
He then drew his gun and aimed at Captain Zhong Chi's vital spot!
"What are you doing?!" Zhong Chi panicked and quickly drew his own gun to counter.
At this moment, Jia Deliang secretly made a call, "Dad, someone is bullying me. Hurry, Captain Qiduo is also here..."
A voice came from the phone, "Son, don't panic. I'll deal with it personally."
A moment later...
Jia Chengyi, having meticulously selected thirty elite military special forces, stormed into the mall and approached the crowd.
"What's going on? Having a military party here?"
Qiduo looked up, a bad feeling dawning, and frowned.
Jia Deliang was overjoyed, "Dad, you're here! That's great! Arrest them, arrest them all!"
Jia Chengyi, dressed in a gleaming suit, tugged at his tie with an air of arrogance. "Well, Captain Qiduo, what wind blows you here?"
Captain Qiduo, being lower in rank, had no choice but to defer, "Captain Jia, same to you."
Jia Chengyi sneered, "Hmph, you get an inch and you think you can take a mile. Have you rebelled? Believe it or not, with one command, I can arrest you too!"
Although afraid, Captain Qiduo showed no fear, stepping forward. "It is my duty. If you dare, I, Qiduo, will have to accompany you to the end."
"Oh?!" Jia Chengyi looked at him with newfound respect. "Captain Qiduo, you're a smart man. My Sixth Team is in need of talent lately. Come over, and I won't treat you poorly."
What did he think he was? A traitor? Captain Qiduo disdained the offer. "Dream on!"
Jia Chengyi's eyes glinted subtly. "If that's the case, then don't blame me for not being lenient as an elder. Take them down!"
"Clap clap clap..."
Applause echoed.
"Well, what exquisite leisure. You all form a group to shop and don't even invite Lu."
