Chapter 10: Personal Demonstration
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Tang Ye!”
A furious shout echoed, causing Tang Ye to conceal his smile and put the candy in his shirt pocket before turning in the direction of the voice.
From the south end of the training ground, Sun Zhi walked over with a dark expression. Liang Chen followed closely behind with an anxious expression.
Upon seeing Liang Chen, Tang Ye’s already stern face seemed to frost further.
Political commissar Song Lian frowned momentarily but quickly put on a smiling face as he approached them. “Yo! Sun Zhi, Liang Chen, what brings you here today? Don’t you have training today?”
Sun Zhi merely glanced at Song Lian before bypassing him. Liang Chen smiled apologetically at Song Lian.
Sun Zhi stood in front of Tang Ye. “Tang Ye, do you even qualify as a man? You can’t even control your wife?”
Hearing this, Tang Ye clenched his fist.
Song Lian quickly ran over and grabbed Tang Ye’s arm, shouting at Sun Zhi, “Vice Commander Sun! This is your superior! Is this how you talk to your superior?”
“He’s not my battalion commander! Besides, he let his wife assault me. He is the one who made the mistake first. As a subordinate, I must point out the mistakes of my superiors,” Sun Zhi retorted, with his neck held high, showing that there wasn’t anything wrong with his attitude.
Listening to his words, Tang Ye’s expression softened. “Oh? Then tell me, why did she hit you?”
Sun Zhi hesitated, unsure of how to respond. He couldn’t exactly admit that it was because of his disparaging comments about Tang Ye.
You don’t need to know why she hit me; the fact is, she assaulted me!”
“Then, what do you want?” Tang Ye shifted his gaze from Sun Zhi to Liang Chen.
At that moment, Liang Chen felt like Tang Ye had seen right through him. For some reason, he didn’t dare to meet Tang Ye’s eyes.
Liang Chen then pulled Sun Zhi’s arm and said, “Forget it, we still have matters to attend to.” He turned to Tang Ye and added, “Sorry. Sun Zhi was also at fault in this matter. I’ll bring him back now.”
His words carried a subtle message that both Song Lian and Tang Ye, being astute individuals, understood. It was an indirect way of saying, ‘Your wife is the one with the problem’.
Song Lian watched Liang Chen and shook his head. He couldn’t help but note the underlying competitiveness between the two. They had joined the military at the same time, both highly talented men. However, Tang Ye held a rank higher than Liang Chen, and though Liang Chen didn’t show it openly, it was clear that he felt a sense of injustice.
However, he didn’t consider that Tang Ye earned all these by risking his life.
“You said Chen Lan hit you, but you didn’t say why she did it, and you came to me without suggesting how to resolve this matter. Why? Do you want to fight?”
Tang Ye ignored Liang Chen’s provocation. He knew exactly what Liang Chen was planning – to bring Sun Zhi over and cause trouble in the military, tarnishing his reputation while portraying himself as the peacemaker.
“Ahchen, stay out of this!” Sun Zhi shook off Liang Chen’s hand. “Tang Ye, you said it yourself. Are you up for it in front of your soldiers, right here on the training ground?”
By now, a crowd of soldiers had gathered, watching the tense situation with unease.
Tang Ye snorted and turned to shout at the surrounding soldiers. “Gather around! Vice Commander Sun Zhi from the First Platoon of The Third Battalion is here to demonstrate for you. Pay close attention!”
Then, he turned to look at Sun Zhi. “Please, Vice Commander Sun.”
The soldiers willingly cleared a path, fully aware that their battalion commander wouldn’t easily demonstrate personally. This was a rare opportunity to witness his prowess as the Battle King, and they were excited.
Sun Zhi stepped forward, and Tang Ye removed his jacket, neatly folding it and placing it to the side before proceeding.
Liang Chen grabbed hold of Song Lian, “Political Commissar Song, please try to intervene!”
Song Lian took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and was about to find the best spot to enjoy the show when Liang Chen grabbed him. He said, “Commander Liang, don’t worry, don’t worry. Ol’ Tang knows how to handle things with care. Sun Zhi is a young hot-blooded fellow; a little bit of sparring will do him good, it’s a good thing!”
Saying that, he glanced down at the melon seeds in his hand, and then reluctantly extended them towards Liang Chen. “Want some?”
Liang Chen shook his head in resignation. Seeing this, Song Lian cheerfully withdrew his hand, then pushed through a few young soldiers to take a seat in the front row, the best viewing spot.
