Looking at that figure, Xu Le thought of the conflict in Linyuan that night. This young Lieutenant Colonel's terrifying combat strength and even more so, he thought of the other party's grandfather, the military god worshipped by the Federal military as a god, the old man the uncle spoke of.
He also thought of what Secretary Jiao said in Cloud Queen Hotel earlier that he might become the Federation's youngest field officer after the new year. However, not far in front of him, Madman Li, who didn't take human life seriously, was the one who held the record for being the youngest field officer in the Federation. Moreover, from the looks of it, this record would probably be very difficult to break.
The 16-year-old Madman Li liked the daughter of Deputy Minister Zou of the Department of National Defense. This wasn't a secret in the upper circles of the capital. Even though most people carried a trace of interest in their eyes and used cute and kissable words to describe the actions of the only child of the Lees of Philadelphia, no one really took this seriously. However, Xu Le, who had endured Madman Li's terrifying power in Linyuan, knew that this young Lieutenant Colonel really did have these thoughts.
With this as a prior reason, Madman Li came to the hospital to visit Zou Yu, who had just given birth. Even though there was still a bit of an awkward feeling, it was still acceptable.
"Tai Zhiyuan is a sick ghost. If you like him, then you really are blind. There's no way you like Xu Le, a guy who's as thin as a stick of firewood. "
Madman Li sat in front of Zou Yu's bed very seriously and said, "Also, the two of you still haven't held a wedding. I've always felt that this matter is a bit strange. Regardless of whether it's you looking down on him or if he's going to abandon his wife and child, in short, I think you can marry me."
This person clearly knew that Xu Le had already entered the room, but it was as if he didn't exist at all and continued to speak his own words.
The Lieutenant Colonel epaulets, tender face, tall and sturdy body, plus the insufferably arrogant tone in his voice, mixed together to create such a little monster.
Xu Le walked to the side of the bed and sat beside Zou Yu. He gently patted Liu Huo's soft head and then took a green fruit and began to peel it seriously. He suddenly opened his mouth and asked, "Do I just chew it like this or cut it into pieces and eat it?"
Zou Yu glared at him and thought to himself, 'Why does this fellow have to create such an atmosphere at such a time? Isn't he deliberately trying to provoke this easily angered little thing?'
Xu Le did it on purpose. After the trip to Harbor City, his mentality had greatly changed compared to before. When facing a direct person, he had to use direct methods. Madman Li showed contempt as if he didn't exist, so he naturally had a way to retaliate. Although this kind of pique seemed a bit childish, Madman Li was still a young man, and Xu Le did indeed have a pure heart.
Madman Li looked at the green fruit in Xu Le's hand. There was a hint of anger gradually accumulating in his young features. It seeped out from his body, which was about to break out of his military uniform, and directly pressured Xu Le's senses.
The fruit knife in Xu Le's hand paused slightly. Both of them were not easy to get along with, so they could both feel the strange and slightly dry feeling in the room.
At this time, this atmosphere seemed to affect the little thing in Zou Yu's arms. The newborn closed his eyes tightly, grimaced in pain, and cried out.
As soon as the cry came out, Madman Li suddenly became a little nervous. Previously, when he was talking with Zou Yu in the ward, in order not to wake up the baby, he tried his best to suppress the sound that was enough to shatter the glass. He didn't expect that the baby would be woken up after all.
…
…
"Three days ago, when I heard the news that you gave birth, grandpa let me out. I have to go back to Philadelphia tonight."
Madman Li stood up and put on his military cap. His hands steadily moved forward along the brim of the cap. He straightened his military posture and said in a deep voice, "Take care of yourself. If there is any problem, call me."
Xu Le walked him to the door. The military officer outside the door saw that the two of them didn't fight like the previous time and heaved a sigh of relief. He stood at attention and saluted. He said, "Reporting, the helicopter is ready. It is ready to take off."
Madman Li stared fiercely at that subordinate and scolded angrily, "Lower your voice! What a bastard! Don't you know that a child needs to sleep! "
Xu Le glanced at him and thought to herself, Your voice seems to be louder. Previously in the ward, he had already realized that although Madman Li was crazy, easily angered, and ruthless, he was really good to Zou Yu. He even showed that he cared a lot about little Liu Huo. At this thought, he had a better impression of this successor of the Lees of Philadelphia.
However, at this moment, Madman Li turned around and looked at him coldly. He put his hands behind his back and said, "I said before that I will beat you to death."
Xu Le looked at Madman Li's clear eyes that had a trace of madness. He smiled and said, "I haven't heard it before."
Madman Li was tall and sturdy. At the age of 16, he was already half a head taller than Xu Le. He looked down at Xu Le's hateful face and said word by word, "At this time, you heard it."
Xu Le looked at him quietly. After a while, he suddenly asked, "Does your throat still hurt?"
Madman Li narrowed his eyes, as if he would attack Xu Le at any time in this quiet corridor. That night in Linyuan, he knew that this seemingly inconspicuous civilian second lieutenant had close combat skills that could match him. However, with his iron blooded aura that had been nurtured on the battlefield for many years and his personality that killed without blinking, Madman Li did not know how to write the word 'retreat'. He even thought that that night in Linyuan, it was because he had underestimated his opponent too much.
However, that night, Xu Le had been shocked until his gums bled from the three attacks, while Madman Li had vomited blood as if his chest had been cut by a knife. He was an invincible figure in the army, but he had still lost.
Xu Le's question pointed directly at Madman Li's vital point.
Madman Li was silent for a moment before he turned and left.
…
…
"This little brat wants to imitate a famous general with his hands behind his back. He clearly doesn't use his brain to do things, but he pretends to be a scheming and astute person." Xu Le accurately divided the green fruit into a dozen pieces and put them in a bowl. He took out a tissue to wipe his hands and shook his head.
"If Li Feng is really a youth with extraordinary talent in combat, do you think he can live so well on the front lines all these years?" Zou Yu looked at him with a trace of melancholy.
Xu Le thought so and threw the tissue into the trash can beside him. He raised his thick eyebrows and said with a smile, "After all, he is only 16 years old. He can make such a big name. On one hand, it is because of his family. On the other hand, it is because this youth's strength is really too terrifying. It is strange that a 16 year old guy dares to call himself invincible in the army. He is really a freak. "
"Compared to Madman Li, I think you are more of a freak." Zou Yu said calmly, "You are only 4 years older than him, but you are already a bit like an old man. When it comes to fighting, you can actually stand up to him as an equal. Now, even my old man wants to use your head to make that new mecha."
"Am I very old?" Xu Le asked in surprise. "Li Xiaotong also said so. I thought that my temperament had already become as open-minded as before."
Zou Yu glared at him in annoyance. After a moment, she said seriously, "I heard the conversation outside the ward earlier. Why did you go against him? This is very unlike you. Besides, the other party is someone from the Lees of Philadelphia. As long as that old man is still around, the entire Federation has to give his family some face."
"Would he really dare to kill me in broad daylight?"
"Madman Li, Madman Li. Once he goes crazy, what doesn't he dare to do?"
Zou Yu lowered her eyes slightly and said, "Don't blame him for being violent. Anyone who was thrown into the army when they were just 12 years old and stayed on the frontlines for a few years will also become a little strange. You should know that Li Feng being able to become the youngest major in the Federation has nothing to do with the War God. That was truly done by him piloting the M52 mecha and fighting against the Empire's special forces. "
Zou Yu glanced at Xu Le and said worriedly, "Madman Li has been on the frontlines for three and a half years. He single-handedly killed 27 level one pilots from the Empire's Royal Special Forces. This kind of person is used to blood. You shouldn't provoke him."
Xu Le listened to the young lieutenant colonel's battle record and couldn't help but frown and sigh.
He had also started killing when he was ten years old. After escaping to the capital ring, he had also killed several people. However, Madman Li had killed pilots from the Empire's Royal Special Forces on the battlefield. These two battle records were on a completely different level.
Xu Le took out a double-headed silver fruit stick and placed it in a bowl. He handed it to Zou Yu and said, "If there comes a day when he really wants to kill me, I won't let him do it just like that."
Zou Yu looked at him carefully holding the bowl and her heart softened. She warned him seriously, "The problem is that he has a gun."
Xu Le smiled and thought of the first time he met this girl beside him. He said mockingly, "That's right. As a son of the military, he can do whatever he wants in the Federation if he has a gun. Without a gun, he can't do anything."
Zou Yu understood the hidden meaning in his words. She snorted and didn't say anything else. She changed the topic and said, "Since father is so anxious to see you, it seems that the matters at the engineering department are really urgent. You shouldn't stay in the hospital all the time."
Although the summer sun outside the window was scorching, it had become much gentler after being filtered by the light absorbing membrane. Little Liu Huo, who had just finished his vaccination, was immersed in a sweet dream. He didn't care about the light spots that were floating around like fireflies. Of course, the little guy had just learned how to open his eyes as a form of entertainment. Before he slept, he even showed Zou Yu and Xu Le that he was turning a blind eye.
Instead, it was Xu Le who was disturbed by the light spots. He lowered his head to look at the sleeping baby and said softly, "Then I'll go back first."
Zou Yu nodded lightly. Previously, she had already heard all the details of Xu Le's trip to Harbor City from him. While she was shocked by the structure of this guy's brain, she also knew that the current situation was coincidentally at a crucial point.
"Don't underestimate me." Zou Yu lifted her chin slightly and said, "And don't look at me with your nice guy mindset."
"But we have to think of a solution for this." Xu Le scratched his head and looked at the child beside her. He thought of the auntie he saw this morning and Zou You last night.
"You are really very boring, do you know that?" Zou Yu said, "Since you have already given birth, what are you worried about? If someone asks, just say that we will talk about it when the child is older. Don't you know how to delay things? "
