Xia Jinyuan nodded, and a smile appeared on his handsome face. He believed that his comrades would protect Azure Bird well. “Remember, after leaving the island, return to the country tonight!”

Only sporadic gunshots could be heard from both sides. After instructing them, Xia Jinyuan let go of Ye Jian’s hand. In the faint starlight, his dark eyes looked at his lover gently. He looked at her lovingly. “Azure Bird, give me your pistol.”

Ye Jian, whose expression softened because of his gaze, immediately looked at him warily. She subconsciously felt that it was not a good thing for him to ask her for a pistol.

White Crane glanced at Ye Jian, who looked wary. He took out his pistol from his combat vest and handed it over. “Use mine.”

They had been comrades for many years. He already understood why Xia Jinyuan needed a pistol.

“No, I’ll use Azure Bird’s.” Xia Jinyuan refused. He stared at his lover coldly and said calmly, “Azure Bird, give me your pistol.”

He repeated the question.

Ye Jian’s heart trembled. She gripped her pistol tightly. Tears welled up in her eyes.

As smart as she was, she understood why he insisted on getting her pistol. This man who had always led her like a towering mountain once told her that there was no such thing as getting soft-hearted on the battlefield.

With everyone on Antonio’s side injured, how could Captain Xia, who was temporarily one of them, be unscathed?

He needed to go back. He needed to go back injured.

White Crane couldn’t bear to watch any longer. He bit the inside of his cheek and looked away.

Sporadic gunshots continued to ring out. Azalea growled. “Give it to him, Azure Bird! That’s an order!”

‘That’s an order!’

A soldier’s duty was to obey orders!

Finally, Ye Jian reached out her trembling hand and handed over the pistol. Under the combat gloves, her right hand was so strong that her knuckles looked somewhat hideous. The skin on her knuckles was so fair that even her green veins could be seen clearly.

She had no choice but to hand over the pistol.

She held it so tightly that Xia Jinyuan did not manage to get it into his hand the first time. It was only when he grabbed her wrist and tightened his grip that he forced her to let go.

“Sometimes, Azure Bird, you have to make the choice that’s best for you. I once told you that the battlefield is always filled with cruelty beyond your imagination.”

He took the pistol that had fallen from her hand. He was calm, even smiling a little. It was so gentle, but also cold. “It’s not hard to make a choice about something on the battlefield. You only have to remember two things…”

Before elaborating on the two points he had yet to say, he shot himself in the arm as Ye Jian watched.

Ye Jian knew that he would hurt himself, but she wasn’t prepared. She thought that he would at least finish his sentence before starting. Because of his sudden shooting, she covered her heart with her hand. Her face was filled with pain.

The smell of blood wafted over, and Xia Jinyuan’s calm voice sounded again. “You only need to remember two things. One, is it the right choice or not? Two, will it be a gain or a loss?

“Remember these two things. That way, in the future, you can quickly make the best choice for yourself.” As long as he discovered her shortcomings, Xia Jinyuan would only make one choice—seriously explain it to her and teach her.

The low sound of a gunshot echoed. Compared to the sound of the other gunshots, the sound of a pistol bullet with a silencer was quite soft. However, it sounded like a thunderclap in Ye Jian’s ears.
