Every time he mentioned this topic, they were mostly going to part on bad terms. Their stands and responsibilities were always the opposite of each other. In other words, on work matters, they were always enemies. This was the most brutal part.
“Why do you hate Shan Ning?” Mu Yuan muttered. “He didn’t even offend you!”
Jack looked at him coldly. Mu Yuan had a pair of extremely sly eyes. They looked very bright and wise. If they were on a middle-aged man’s face, they would certainly be a pair of smart and sophisticated eyes. On his face, they screamed slyness.
He could not help but recall the first time they met. He saw a sixteen-year-old young man jumping down from the second floor. It was like a ray of light, shining on the darkness in the morning. During the practices that year, he would insist on raising the bright red national flag every day. Holding on all the way until the flag that belonged to him flew proudly at last.
“Xiao Yuan, have you been at a disadvantage before after listening to my words?”
“Yes!” Mu Yuan was furious. “How dare you say this? I have always been the one at a disadvantage!”
Jack smiled and said, “What I’m saying is, have you suffered outside after listening to me?”
Mu Yuan thought seriously, and it seemed like he really had not suffered before. He changed his thoughts and said, “What do you mean? Suffering from you is not counted?”
This person is really so unreasonable!
“Of course not!” Jack continued to say. “I would never harm you!”
Mu Yuan snorted and said, “Why do you not allow me to interact with Shan Ning? You should at least give me a reason. How can you just ask me to dump my best friend for no reason?”
If the reason convinced him, it could then be considered.
Jack pursed his lips and cursed inwardly. Am I dumb? Would I reveal to you that Shan Ning likes you?
They were mostly far apart from each other while Mu Yuan and Shan Ning were together most of the time.
Jack thought to himself, If I reveal this, aren’t I seeking for trouble?
“I remember you once said that Shan Ning’s parents are both diplomats. He has to follow their footsteps in the future, so how is he going to run everywhere with you?” Jack asked.
“He has to train more and follow me to discover all parts of the world. When he has more experience, it will also be easier to handle all kinds of conflicts next time. Anyway, he doesn’t need to chase after qualifications, and he is still young. Getting into the system a few years later will also be the same.”
Jack laughed coldly. That was a really lame reason.
This little idiot! He slightly missed the Mu Yuan he first met. The stubborn and cold young man then was extremely arrogant; he was like a little beast. Now, the little beast had grown up, and he felt that there were also more people he held dear.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about Shan Ning. Did you come here alone? Did you bring anybody?” Mu Yuan asked.
“What’s wrong?”
Mu Yuan told him about Tong Hua’s plan to make the culprits pay for their actions. “There were also not many people who escaped. It’s just that Ah Ling is immobile now, so I’m scared that an accident will happen. If you brought somebody with you, lend me.”
“The matter you begged me the other time? You have not even paid the interest. Going to borrow again?”
“Jack, let’s sever ties!” Mu Yuan exclaimed.
Jack smiled, and just as he was about to say something, Tong Hua blew a whistle from upstairs and waved at them. “Hey hey hey, you two majors! You guys sure are having fun, what are you arguing about? Why sever ties? Big brother Mu Yuan, didn’t you say that you are not very close with Major Jack?”
Mu Yuan was speechless.
Jack was speechless.
Ah Ling, this son is definitely your own flesh and blood!!!!!
Jack’s face slightly darkened. The pair of azure blue eyes seemed to be smiling, but they also looked like they were frozen. Mu Yuan’s scalp felt like pins and needles. He felt that he could still save himself. Jack calmly said, “Yes, we are not very close. We don’t need to sever ties!”
Mu Yuan thought, Sh*t, I’m dead!
