"Hehe, Lord Aino, we meet again. I didn't have the time to greet you last time. Sorry for not greeting you." Jiang Fei smiled.
"Forget it! I'd rather never see you two again! " Aino rubbed his temples. Last time, Theon had clearly written in his treasure vault that Jiang Fei was his apprentice. It didn't matter if this thief had an apprentice, but the number of things he could take would double!
"Ah Fei, do you know Lord Aino?" Sarila looked at Jiang Fei in surprise.
"Hehe, it's just a chance encounter." Jiang Fei smiled.
"A chance encounter?" Sarila's eyes were full of doubt. Who was Aino? If it was just a chance encounter, why would he show such an expression to Jiang Fei? Although it was not an expression of fear, it was a look of worry. This could be seen from Aino's tightly furrowed brows.
Aino was also a big shot who had been in a high position for a long time, so he had long mastered the ability to not show his emotions. Normally, he would not lose his composure like this, but the problem was that whenever Theon the Great Thief was mentioned, all the higher-ups of the Valsalrians would have a headache.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense with me. What are you doing here?" Aino calmed himself down and tried not to look at Jiang Fei. Whenever he saw Jiang Fei, he would think of Theon, and whenever he thought of Theon, he would feel disgusted.
"Grandpa, he just took me hostage. This is blatant treason! He must be punished severely! " Trunks, who had been released by Jiang Fei, ran to Aino and began to complain. He hated Jiang Fei to the core.
Trunks had always regarded Jiang Fei as his rival in love. This reason alone was enough for Trunks to hate Jiang Fei. However, Trunks had a good upbringing. Although he was a playboy, he would not resort to despicable means to plot against his rival in love.
However, after that, Jiang Fei had restrained him and made him lose face in front of so many people, especially his subordinates. This way, Trunks could no longer keep his face. Originally, Trunks only had a slight grudge against Jiang Fei. Now, he wanted nothing more than to skin Jiang Fei alive!
"I know. Stay aside for a while." Aino waved his hand. He did not immediately fulfill his grandson's request like before. Instead, he turned around and continued to say, "If you have nothing better to do, why aren't you with that old bastard? Why are you here? Hurry up and stay away. I'll get someone to send you away later!"
To be honest, Aino really did not want Jiang Fei to get involved in this. For the sake of his treasure, he did not want to have anything to do with Theon at all, especially not provoke Theon. It was not a good life to have a thief who was always on his mind.
"That won't do. I'm with them." Jiang Fei shook his head. If he just wanted to sign up, it would be very easy. With Theon there, even if Jiang Fei poked a hole in the sky, his teacher would be able to fish him out.
"That's enough. I've already given that old guy enough face. Don't push your luck!" Aino's face suddenly fell.
After all, they did not know Theon's true strength. Although the Valsalrians did not want to provoke this thief, they were not afraid of him either. So, if Theon had personally negotiated with Aino today, Aino might have given him face. However, Jiang Fei was just a young boy. Aino had already given Theon enough face by not punishing him. Jiang Fei was not qualified to negotiate with him.
Jiang Fei had thought too simply. He thought that Aino did not care about the lives of Sarila and the others at all for the sake of his treasure. However, he had forgotten that these old guys, who had been in high positions for a long time, cared more about their reputation. If Jiang Fei went to Aino in private, Aino would just nod his head, and it would be over. However, things were different now. In public, if a young boy showed off a few words, Aino would have to listen to him.
"No, I'm one with them. Wherever they are, I'll be there!" At this time, Jiang Fei still did not realize his mistake. If he had asked Aino in the form of a request, it was very likely that Aino would have agreed. However, if he had asked Aino in the form of a negotiation, how could he possibly agree to it in order to save his reputation?
"Hmph! Since you're willing to be with them, then be with them! " When Aino saw that Jiang Fei was not giving him face, he immediately turned to the subordinate officer beside him and ordered, "Inform the transport ship to depart in two hours. All former members of the 13th Division who have not boarded the ship will be executed on the spot for desertion!"
"Yes, sir!" The officer answered and immediately went to carry out the order.
"You …" Jiang Fei was also dumbfounded. He never expected Aino to be so reckless. He actually risked offending Theon by sending him to the Tallgeese Advance Outpost.
"Hmph!" Aino snorted coldly, then left in a huff. Trunks, on the other hand, could not help but sneer at Jiang Fei and the others.
"Ah Fei, what should we do?" At this time, Sarila was a little confused. Just now, Aino had obviously given Jiang Fei face, which had ignited hope in her heart. However, in the blink of an eye, the situation had taken a turn for the worse. She could not react to such a sudden change at all.
Trunks, who was still infatuated with Sarila, walked over and said, "Sarila, it's not too late to agree to my request now. I can ask my grandfather to let you stay. If you go to the Tallgeese Advance Outpost, it'll be too late for you to regret it!"
Sarila glanced at Trunks coldly and said firmly, "I've told you many times. Wherever he is, I'll be there!"
"Good! Good! Good! Remember the choice you've made today. Don't regret it in the future! "Trunks said the word" good "three times in a row, then stomped his feet and left.
"Sir! What should we do? Should we rebel? " Asked an officer of the 13th Division. They had now regarded Jiang Fei as their backbone. As long as Jiang Fei nodded, even if they knew that they would definitely die if they rebelled, they would still follow Jiang Fei to the Carldish Fortress.
"Stop fooling around. Isn't it suicide to rebel here?" Jiang Fei waved his hand helplessly. Although he had Theon to protect him, the others could not. If they really rebelled, no one here, including Sarila, would survive.
"Then are we really going to Tallgeese to die?" Asked a Marine unwillingly. In his opinion, since they were going to die anyway, they might as well drag a few people down with them.
"Don't worry, everyone. Even if we go to Tallgeese, I'll bring you all out alive. I promise!" Jiang Fei took a deep breath and said with a serious face. However, what he did not know was that today's act of kindness had given him an invincible core team that was loyal to him to the death in the future.
