Chapter 39: Chapter 39

“Get in touch with this person as soon as you get to N City,” he responded almost immediately and gave her a number, which did not seem like a number to call for a pager. It had nine digits and seemed like a cellphone number. It was probably going to ring a first-generation mobile phone.

“Sure, I’ll get in touch! Xiao, it’s getting late now, you should get back to your dorm. Don’t worry about me!”

Lu Beixiao took a look at the clock and realized that he really should be going now. He had less than three minutes until the nightly inspection.

“I’ll be away in a couple of days. My pager won’t be able to receive any connection, so don’t worry about me. Let’s call it a night.”

“Sure. Good night, Xiao. Mwah!” There was an emphasis on the last word as if she had just kissed him.

Lu Beixiao began to burn with desire as soon as he remembered what Ye Cheng told him – she was flirting.

“Girl, you’d better wait for it!” Lu Beixiao was a hot-blooded young man, full of vigor and vitality. Even the slightest hint of seduction could turn him on easily.

“What should I be waiting for?” She continued to play dumb.

There came silence, while he gnashed his teeth to quench the burning desire. “You should hang up. Do it now; I only have two minutes to spare.”

Even when he was in urgent haste, he still insisted on waiting for her to hang up first.

Ye Qiao was not bashful at all, so she hung up the call almost instantly, for she understood his current situation. There was no time to waste.

In haste, he cleared the ashtray and put it back where it belonged. There was a sound of something astir outside of the office, so he had to go. From the window, he took a swift leap to the ground and was swift enough to avoid getting caught along his way.

He arrived at the dormitory area almost the same time as Lao Cai and his inspectors. With a pleased smile, he jumped into the air and climbed onto the roof instead.

As soon as Lao Cai stepped into their sleeping quarters, he immediately raised his voice like a maniac. Everyone else got up from their sleep instantaneously, except Lu Beixiao. He still had his blanket over his head, so they could not see his face.

Lao Cai gave inspector Chen a look to check on him.

“Oh no.” Ye Cheng broke into a cold sweat, for Lu Beixiao was seriously going to get into trouble.

What could he be doing stealthily during the night? Was he on a date? But there was no woman within the perimeter of the training base. Could he be dating a man?

Inspector Chen stood by Lu Beixiao’s bed and, without further ado, pulled away his blanket.

“Ouch!”

With a toss and a twist, Inspector Chen was already seized on the ground with no chance to resist. He could only screech in pain.

“Hey, it’s you, Inspector Chen!” Lu Beixiao only had a singlet and a pair of underpants on. He finally let go of Inspector Chen and yawned as he replied, “Why do you keep pulling away my blanket?”

No one saw when or how he sneaked in, but Ye Cheng felt quite bad for not being in the know.

Meanwhile, Lu Beixiao received a stern look from Lao Cai before he left their sleeping quarters.

As an inspector, Lao Cai was aware of Lu Beixiao’s every movement and action. However, he was invariably outsmarted. As for the other dorm mates, it was a relief to have a member who could outsmart him.

One must use strength and strategy, with considerable ingenuity, as a means of bringing people to allegiance, especially in the Special Forces. These minor incidents could be pardoned, as long as they stayed within the line.

The Special Forces operated in its own way, apparently impervious to the National Defense’s criticism. Training had always been their number one priority so that they would spend most of their time in the field instead. Internal affairs, such as dormitory inspections, were considerably insignificant. In fact, they stayed true only to their priorities and never played by the rules.

Once the inspection team was gone, the dormitory became peaceful and quiet again. Lu Beixiao returned to his bed, with his blanket tucked in.

“Xiao, why do you cover yourself in a blanket when it’s so hot?” Ye Cheng teased.

Lu Beixiao picked up one of his boots and swung it across the room without even looking. He was aiming for Ye Cheng, his future brother-in-law, whose bed was in the other corner.

Terrified, Ye Cheng quickly hid in his blanket.

With his eyes closed, all Lu Beixiao could see was Ye Qiao’s face. He must have been poisoned by love as he began tittering at the possibility of their next encounter.

“Girl, you’d better wait for it!”
