Chapter 402 - The Captains Nephew
Chapter 402: The Captain’s Nephew
The next morning, Ling Ping’an received a text message notification on his phone after he woke up.
It was from the airline: “Dear Ling Ping’an, the flight you have booked will take off from Jiangcheng Airport at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow morning. Destination: Capital. Please arrive at the airport ahead of time and check in.”
He scratched his head and received another text message.
It was from the Federal Empire’s Committee for Meritorious Service. The tone employed was very formal.
“Dear Ling Ping’an, your ticket has been processed. Please go to the airport in time to complete the relevant procedures. Below was the information about the ticket.”
He glanced at the ticket that the committee had booked for him.
“Wow, it’s a good package…” he smacked his lips.
But..
“Why do I feel that they’re afraid that I won’t go?” he thought.
Then, he laughed at himself. “You’re thinking too much!”
Everyone was just a screw in this world.
Without him, the sun would rise tomorrow as usual.
…
Jiangcheng City Airport.
A day in advance, the flight was scheduled to land at the airport for maintenance.
Song Shihui, on the other hand, wore the uniform of an air marshal and walked in the cabin to familiarize himself with the environment.
He was very concerned about the safety of the flight tomorrow.
Moreover, this was a rare opportunity!
Perhaps he could establish some good interaction with it.
After the inspection, Song Shihui walked out of the cabin.
The airport staff had already brought over the passenger registration form for tomorrow’s flight.
He took it over and casually looked at it to confirm that there were no illegal elements or people with criminal records on it.
Then, he sent the list back.
“The airport needs to do a good job on security!”
“Understood!” replied the person who came to deliver the form.
After Song Shihui left, the person next to him asked, “Who is it? It’s such a big deal, and you have to deliver something personally…”
“Alright, stop talking now.” A violent thud greeted him.
There were some things that could not be known by ordinary people.
…
Li An’an was arranged to enter the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
She was given an independent office.
Chu Weiwei was also given an office next to her office.
The two of them were stunned.
Was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs so extravagant?
However, they soon found out that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was doing the right thing.
Because there were too many guests.
For the whole day, they were busy getting to know the extraordinaire liaison officers from all over the world.
They said the same words and made the same expression.
By the time they got off work, the two of them were already exhausted.
Li An’an stretched her back and walked out of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Building. “No wonder people often say that diplomats are all honest gentlemen who only deceive others for the national interest…”
“Now I finally understand the meaning of these words!”
She held her hand and massaged her sore cheeks.
After a day of fake laughter, she felt that the muscles on her cheeks were gone.
“That’s right!” Chu Weiwei said from behind, “If it wasn’t for a real gentleman, how could he do such a thing?”
After a tiring day, the two of them had a better understanding of the hardships of being a diplomat.
Not to mention other things, this fake smile and pretending to know the feelings of a certain country were really uncomfortable.
Without a strong heart, how could one do such a thing?
“Right!” Li An’an took out her phone and said, “I’ll ask Little Ping’an when she will arrive tomorrow!”
…
After a busy day, Ling Ping’an cleaned up the bookstore and tidied up the rooms and sundries upstairs.
At the same time, he also looked at the small peach trees on the roof and fertilized them.
Finally, he had settled everything.
Before he could catch his breath, his phone rang.
It was a video call.
He lay on the sofa as he opened the video call.
He saw his aunt waving at him in front of the camera. “Little Ping’an, how’s your preparation?”
“It’s goes well!” Ling Ping’an said, “I’ve done all the cleaning today…”
“Then what time will you arrive at the capital tomorrow? I’ll pick you up!”
“No!” Ling Ping’an immediately refused. “Aunty, I’m not a child anymore…”
“Besides…”
“You’ve been on leave for so long, isn’t your unit urging you to go to work?”
Aunty chuckled and suddenly pointed the camera at a young girl next to her.
Ling Ping’an tried his best to take a look before remembering that this seemed to be aunty’s colleague?
Thus, he warmly greeted her, “Hello!”
The young girl was also very polite, “Hello, Young Master Ling, we meet again!”
In response, Ling Ping’an scratched his head, “Hehe!”
What was her name again?
Thus, he politely and not awkwardly said, “Hello, Miss. . . we meet again!”
The expression of his aunt beside him was so ugly that it could eat people up.
Ling Ping’an knew that he seemed to have failed?
But, what did it matter?
Did he have to remember every person whom he met by chance?
Besides, he was forgetful!
He had already forgotten all his classmates and teachers. He needed to look through the student and teacher records to remember.
But it was good!
Forgetful people were broad-minded and never held grudges, for they couldn’t remember.
…
“Weiwei…” Li An’an put away her phone with a puzzled expression and told Chu weiwei, “This guy has always been like this. Don’t take offense!”
Chu Weiwei smiled. “Why would I take offense?”
That young peer gave her a good impression.
She was neither servile nor overbearing. Neither did she treat her as a beauty, nor did she treat her as a rich young lady.
Just like Li An’an, they treated each other as equals.
“Oh right…” Chu Weiwei seemed to have recalled something. “Captain, has that young master ling done a psionic power test?”
Li Anan nodded. “How could he not have done it?”
From primary school onwards, the Federal Empire would conduct a psionic power test every year to select qualified extraordinaires for training.
Many summer camps and winter camps under the banner of the royal family or the central federal government were the initiatives of this system.
For example, Li An’an discovered her talent when she was in elementary school and slowly observed it. When she was about to take the college entrance exam, she received a secret notice and an interview.
In the end, she became a member of the Blackguard.
Of course, outside of the system, there was no lack of fish that slipped through the net.
Many transcendent being families were built by these fish that escaped the net.
And Li An’an remembered that her little nephew’s psionic power test had been zero since he was young.
This was the data she obtained after becoming the Blackguard.
It also matched her authority.
Members of the blackguard had the right to know the private data of their immediate or intimate partners.
“Why?” Li An’an asked, “Do you think he has the talent of psionic power?”
Chu Weiwei said, “I don’t know!”
“But that cat…”
“It seems to be a spiritual pet…”
She recalled the little black cat that flashed across the video and the last time they met. At that time, she felt that the cat was extraordinary.
Now that she looked at it again, this cat was definitely a spiritual cat.
“Spiritual pets choose their owners since ancient times!” Chu Weiwei said, “Just like how a Phoenix must perch on a phoenix tree…”
“The higher the level of a spirit pet, the more it knows how to find a suitable master!”
“And these people are all people with super talent in psionic power!”
“For example, in the imperial capital, there is a young genius who is only twenty-five years old, but has already received the recognition of more than ten spirit pets!”
“And his cultivation is even more valiant and vigorous!”
“Legend has it that he has the chance to break the barrier of general-level before the age of thirty!”
Li An’an raised her head. “The general-level…”
She suddenly laughed and looked at Chu Weiwei. “Weiwei, do you think that if I break through the barrier of the general-level before I turn thirty, I won’t have to age even until I die?”
The youth was a legend.
And to the girls, this was naturally a topic of eternal pursuit.
Chu Weiwei looked at Li Anan, the captain who had a confident look on his face. She thought of the legend of Li An’an and nodded. “It should be possible!”
She wasn’t too sure if the generals could really stay young forever.
After all, the generals were all big shots.
They were elusive.
Only Li An’an could directly contact Zhang Hui.
However, Li An’an suddenly became dejected. “If that’s the case, when Little Ping An gets old, I might still be like this…”
“That’s not good…”
“It’s better if I don’t break through to General!”
Chu Weiwei looked at Li An’an. For some reason, she felt that Li Anan’s words were very sincere.
She was serious.
For the sake of her nephew’s embarrassment when he grows old, did the captain not want to break through?
In other words…
Chu Weiwei understood that although her captain had always been out of tune, she was sincere in many things.
Therefore.
“Captain, you can break through at will, right?” Chu Weiwei asked.
Li An’an laughed mischievously. “Weiwei, do you think that breaking through is as easy as drinking water?”
“That’s not right!” Chu Weiwei became serious. “Captain, are you able to break through to lieutenant colonel?”
Li An’an exhaled but did not answer.
She remembered that in her nephew’s novel, the main character had to hold back and not break through.
In the end, a quantitative change triggered a qualitative change.
Not only was he invincible in the same level, but he could also kill enemies of a higher level!
It was best to break through at the last minute.
This way, one could shock the enemy passers-by, and two could make their supporting characters submit.
This was the best way to show off!
As a heroine, Li An’an had been yearning for this for a long time.
But Chu Weiwei already knew the answer.
Looking at her captain, she wondered if her captain had also entered the realm of Nightmare?
Otherwise…
How could her strength have improved by leaps and bounds?
It must be known that in the realm of nightmare, she had relied on the legacy left behind by a senior expert and used the title of connections to be able to enter the realm of nightmare like a fish in water. Now, she was just barely approaching the threshold of a lieutenant colonel.
However, the captain was silently approaching lieutenant colonel.
Moreover, looking at her appearance, as long as she was willing, breaking through to lieutenant colonel would not be a difficult task.
However, she was not willing.
Was it because she was afraid that in the future, her nephew would be old, but she would still be young and awkward?
However, extraordinary people were like this.
In ancient times, they were called Immortals and gods. There was even a saying that one day in the sky, one year on the ground.
That reinforced Chu Weiwei’s belief.
The captain must be loving his nephew very much.
