Chapter 1015: 1015. Embarrassment!

“Back then, the mine investigators were quietly allowed to enter probably because Mai’er Fa was afraid it was too obvious and it will draw too many people’s attention. Then afterwards, that case with the mine investigators being wiped out made Mailer Fa have a reason to prohibit more mine investigators to enter…” Ling Xiao thought about the situation deeper than Ling Lan, “There’s also another possibility that it’s a trap.”

“A trap?” Ling Lan didn’t think the mineral veins could be a trap and was stunned. “Dad, you’re saying the mineral veins could be faked?”

“The mineral veins could be real or fake. However, as for Magic Ace Mecha Clan meeting their end accidentally and somehow obtaining the map to the mineral veins… That seems too much of a coincidence. Although there’s the saying that coincidences make history, this was still too much of a coincidence and has its own unexplained issues.” Ling Xiao explained to Ling Lan.

Ling Lan began to think more deeply about it. Her original thought of Magic Ace Mecha Clan accidentally getting caught in the situation was pushed behind her head.

“If this trap was planned for Magic Ace Mecha Clan… Then, who would want to wipe out Magic Ace Mecha Clan?” Ling Lan’s eyes glimmered.

“I will find Senior Colonel Liu and ask about the details,” Ling Xiao said decisively. “Lan’er, leave this to me. Don’t meddle in it anymore.”

Someone so cold-blooded and calculating who could flick his finger while plotting to destroy a titled super mecha clan, wasn’t someone Ling Lan could go against at her current level. Ling Xiao didn’t want Ling Lan to take any risks.

“Understood, dad.” Nodded Ling Lan.

She wouldn’t cause trouble but if trouble was to look for her, she wouldn’t retreat either. Ling Lan’s eyes became cold for a split second. She didn’t know why, but she always felt that she had no chance of getting not involved in this incident. Ling Lan didn’t want Ling Xiao to worry so she didn’t tell him what she felt.

Ling Xiao saw that his daughter was obedient for once and let out a soft sigh of relief. Knowing his daughter, he knew that she would do as she said. If she said she wouldn’t meddle with it, she would not meddle with the incident with the Magic Ace Mecha Clan and the mineral veins.

After being relieved, Ling Xiao thought for a moment. Then, he finally said the real reason he called Ling Lan.

“Lan’er, I called you today because I wanted your thoughts on something,” Ling Xiao’s expression became stern.

Seeing this, Ling Lan earnestly replied, “Ask away, dad.”

“I want to know your honest thoughts about this.” Ling Xiao’s eyes stared at his daughter intently. He didn’t want Ling Lan to tell him anything other than the truth.

Ling Xiao’s unusual seriousness surprised Ling Lan. She didn’t know why Ling Xiao would talk to her in this way. Perplexed, she asked, “Dad, what do you want to know?”

“I just want to know whether your thought of leaving the military is real or is it to just keep the promise you had with your mom?” Ling Xiao asked what he wanted to know.

Hearing this, Ling Lan frowned slightly and stopped to think seriously for a moment.

Everything she had done in the past two years was for the promise she made two years ago. She took troops into the battlefield last year in hopes that before she left, her comrades would be able to get used to war. All in all, she was worried about the comrades she had grown up with…

If it was possible, she hoped that her mom would give her three years, five years or even longer. That way she would be able to arrange everything better and protect her comrades until they could hold their own. Plus, if she were to leave now, her heart wouldn’t be at peace.

Ling Lan unknowingly spoke out what she was thinking under the gaze of Ling Xiao.

Hearing this, Ling Xiao’s expression became cold. Even if it was only a projected image on a screen, Ling Lan could still feel an intimidating gaze from the image.

Ling Xiao’s snapped, “Ling Lan, I’m asking you for what you want, not what you want to do for others.”

“Ask yourself, did you really join the military to be beside your friends? Are you not the least interested in it? Or perhaps, you hate the military, hate the battlefield, bloodshed, and wanted to be far away from this kind of life?”

Ling Xiao’s question went straight into the depth of Ling Lan’s heart. Ling Lan didn’t know what she wanted to do.

Back then, in order to not let Ling Xiao’s merits be taken away by the Ling family, Lan Luofeng lied that Ling Lan was a boy and took everything that originally belonged to the two of them, causing Ling Lan to have no choice but to pretend to be a boy. When she was sixteen, it was originally possible for her to regain her femininity. However, because of Ling Xiao’s return, she had no choice but to continue to pretend to be male and enter the First Men’s Military Academy. This decision made it so that she had to enter the military for some time.

When she entered the military academy, Ling Lan had already accepted the fact that she would be a soldier in the future. She didn’t reject the idea. It wasn’t because she liked it. She just had never thought about whether she was willing to do so or not. She only felt that it was something she should do.

Hated being a soldier? Ling Lan shook her head. She definitely didn’t hate being a soldier. Even now, soldiers guarding their own nations would be granted honor and merits. Hated the bloodshed? Ling Lan had probably already gotten used this type of life. If she was to return to a peaceful life, she wouldn’t become used it easily. Thus, when she felt she was actually going to leave the military, she didn’t stay at home. Instead, she chose to create a mercenary team and adventure into the galaxy. She was no longer the simple little girl from her previous life, who only hoped to have a healthy body and be able to move about freely.

Ling Lan seemingly returned to the battlefield on Planet Haijiao. She could feel the feeling of her blood boiling when she piloted her mecha and fought with enemies. Ling Lan couldn’t help but clench her fists. She really wanted to step into a mecha once again and fight against enemies…

“Dad, I like the military. I want to become a soldier.” Ling Lan finally saw through what her heart wanted. Standing beside her friends and becoming a soldier because she had no choice, were all excuses. These were all there to fool herself. In reality, she wanted to become a soldier, piloting mechas, moving around the galaxy, and expand her nation’s influence.

“So you don’t want to leave the military?!” Ling Xiao smirked. She was definitely his daughter.

“I don’t want to anymore, but what about the two year promise I made with mom?” Ling Lan tossed out this question to Ling Xiao, for him to resolve.

“Women have nothing to do with a man’s decision…” Ling Xiao said nonchalantly.

“Women! Haha!” Ling Lan half-smiled as she looked at Ling Xiao. Did her dad forget that she was also a woman?

Ling Xiao also realized it and had a slight change in expression. He then said, “In that case, you will be taking over 250 as a stand-alone clan when you return.”

Then, he hung up the communicator.

Ling Xiao watched as Ling Lan’s face disappeared in front of him. Then, he punched the table in frustration, “How could I forget that she is my daughter and not my son! She and her mother are usually in cahoots with each other. I’m doomed. When I return home, Luofeng will definitely kick me out. I just hope that it won’t be too long!”

No, for his own livelihood, he definitely couldn’t let his daughter tell those words to his wife.

Ling Xiao contacted Ling Lan once again. On the screen, Ling Lan’s confused expression showed up, “Dad, what’s up?” He just hung up so why did he contact her again? Could it be he had forgotten to say something? When did her heroic father become so forgetful?

“Lan’er, those words just now, don’t tell your mother. Understood?” Ling Xiao gave a stern warning as a father and then quickly hung up the communicator once again.

He didn’t even dare to see his daughter expression, as it was so embarrassing for him. Ling Xiao had his head down helplessly on his desk. At that moment, he didn’t have a hint of the heroic figure of being a general or a god-class operator.

Ling Lan looked at the now black screen once again with a complicated expression on her face… In the end she helplessly sighed, “No surprise, my mom is the bane of my dad’s existence!”
