The feelings between father and son were stronger than water.
“He is Ye Wuming. You should not call him Xing," Qin Wannian said of the man. "Wuming did very well in the Qin family. He’s diligent and conscientious. He did his duty. I'm very comfortable with him."
Qin Feng’s mouth curled up at the corners and he said, "His nickname appears to be more suitable. Wuming sounds so strange."
"All right, whatever." Qin Wannian sighed and said, "So, you son of a bitch, what's your capacity for liquor? This is the first time I’ve drank with you. We have to do it well."
"How can you persuade your son to drink more? You really don't know how to care about my body. If my body gets bad because of drinking too much, who will pass on the Qin family genes?" Qin Feng laughed.
Hearing this, Qin Wannian was anxious to ask, "Right, how is your love life going? There must be a lot of women around you. You don’t just play all day long, do you? Are you seriously looking for a woman to live with? Hurry and give me a grandson!"
"Oh, you think it's like a market shopping for cabbage in the Tianhe? Do I dare to look for a woman with my profession the way it is? Those who want me as a husband might get killed some day--”
Qin Feng's words had not finished, but his father patted the palm of the hand and interjected. "Bah, bah! What are you talking about? How can you curse yourself like this? You're stupid!"
"I’m being objective. If I find someone, I will have to be responsible for her her whole life. I can't even control my own destiny. How can I take care of others? After being with me a few years, if I suddenly die and we have children, what will my wife do? How will they live for the rest of their lives? It’s too irresponsible to get married," Qin Feng said seriously.
Hearing his son speak, Qin Wannian said, “Is this predetermined? Did something happen? Tell me and I’ll give you advice."
"No, no." Qin Feng shook his head anxiously, and then got up to leave. "I’ll go call Xing and go to the kitchen to see Mom Zhang."
-----
The next morning, Qin Feng went to the army base.
He saw Green Dragon whose injury had been cured. When the man saw Qin Feng, he quickly asked about his situation and asked several times whether Gu Shaoyun had found him.
Although the two did not say everything openly, Qin Feng guessed his meaning. Gu Shaoyun must have found Green Dragon.
"Qin Feng, you'd better hand over the list. After so many issues, you know holding on to it is a big event. We can’t defend this. This world cannot be changed by just one or two heroes. Things aren’t always what they seem, good or bad, and we need to be sensible."
During his period of recuperation in the hospital, Green Dragon had thought about a lot of things. Sometimes, some things couldn’t be taken too seriously. Their military region weak like a small ant, and it would be destroyed sooner or later.
"Well, I came to the military region this time to give the list to Gu Shaoyun, who, as our immediate leader, has the right to handle it," Qin Feng said conscientiously. " I thought of holding onto it to make a great contribution to the earth, but I found that even if I took it out, no one dared to accept it or open it up. You and I can't solve this. I believe that he has a proper solution."
"Well, that's what you should have done. If you had said you wanted to do that, I wouldn’t have had to…”
Green Dragon was excited for a moment and almost said the wrong thing. After half of the words came out, he changed his mind and said, "I wouldn’t have had to worry about you. I could have focused on work and doing my job well. Let’s not think about it. Thinking about it is trouble."
"Yes, we’re not too young. It’s time to think of a retreat for ourselves. We work so much all day long, but in the end, we get nothing. What’s the significance of working?" Qin Feng sighed. "I really envy those white-collar workers who work from 9 to 5 in the city. They don’t need to worry about anything and they live in a down-to-earth way every day. How good is that?"
"Yes, I do too. But there is no way. Without people like us protecting and defending this country, could China have such a stable and peaceful situation? The wars in other countries that are broadcast every day on the news network are not imaginary. Overall, China is one of the most secure countries in the world. We can take some of that credit, and in any case, we should be proud."
"Well, I'm glad you think so," Qin Feng said and smiled.
After a moment, Green Dragon sucked on his lower lip and said, "Green Snake has come back. You’ve already seen her, right?"
"Well, after she escaped from the Golden Triangle, she found me in the Tianhe a few days ago, but the One-Eyed Dragon kidnapped her. I saved her from them and I revenge Xiao He on them as well.
She was poisoned by the One-Eyed Dragon, and the antidote was only half the needed amount. I contacted the Eagle Special Operations team, and they came to rescue us, and the weak Green Snake was sent back to the military headquarters."
"Well, that's what I heard."
Green Dragon already knew everything. He just wanted to see if Qin Feng would lie to him.
