When the tables and chairs were brought up, Xiao Ran was served a hot breakfast. Under the gaze of countless passersby, Xiao Ran enjoyed the food unhurriedly. It was as if he was not waiting for the APEC and AEU guests. He simply wanted to eat somewhere else.
Before Xiao Ran could finish eating, the people from the Revolutionary Federation and AEU finally walked out with their heads held high and chests puffed out. The two leaders, a black-haired middle-aged man and a golden-haired fatty, were chatting and laughing. They didn't think that there was anything wrong with letting Xiao Ran and the others wait for them.
However, when the two of them saw Xiao Ran sitting on a chair and drinking tea unhurriedly with a portable TV on the table and a smile on his face while watching a movie, their expressions immediately changed as if they had eaten sh * t.
Xiao Ran's attention seemed to be completely attracted by the movie on the table. She did not notice the group of people who walked out. It was Lieutenant Colonel Rodia who whispered something into Xiao Ran's ear. Xiao Ran raised her head in realization. When she stood up, she forgot to press the pause button on the portable movie. She stood in front of the chair and smiled at the people from the APEC and AEU.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't see you guys just now. It's all because the movie is too exciting." Xiao Ran sighed apologetically and gestured for Major General Jin and Brigadier General Goodman to sit down. "The two of you rushed over so early, you probably haven't had breakfast yet. I haven't been feeling well for the past few days and feel dizzy if I don't eat. If you don't mind, let's eat together. I can also finish watching this movie."
"Please have a seat." After Xiao Ran finished speaking, he once again invited the two to sit down. Without waiting for the two to respond, he sat down and said to Lieutenant Colonel Rodia: "Lieutenant Colonel, I'm sorry. Can't you see that the guests are here? Hurry up and prepare the food. "
Lieutenant Colonel Rodia held his breath and nodded as if he wanted to laugh but did not dare to. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold back his laughter if he said something. He turned around and hurriedly left with a few soldiers.
Major General Jin and Brigadier General Goodman were speechless when they saw how determined Xiao Ran was to finish his meal here. Their eyebrows twitched, but they still forced a smile on their faces and nodded to Xiao Ran before sitting down.
Goodman, the fat man, did not have the mindset of being fat. After he sat down, he said sarcastically, "Officer Xiao's mask is really unique. It just shows your mouth, so it won't affect you when you eat. But aren't you afraid of dirtying your mask when you eat like this? I'm afraid it's not convenient to clean it. "
"Yes, I think so too. That's why I only made half of it. This thing is very convenient to clean. The new technology prevents oil from staining it. Just wipe it clean with a piece of white paper." Xiao Ran's eyes were fixed on the movie as he took a sip of tea. He did not even raise his head and said, "I can't help it. I'm too ugly to show it to others and scare them."
Major General Jin and Brigadier General Goodman did not understand what Xiao Ran meant. They thought that Xiao Ran was just finding an excuse to mock himself for wearing a mask. But then Graham suddenly said, "What's the matter with Xiao Ran?
"General, you're too humble. At least in my opinion, many movie stars can't compare to you."
Xiao Ran pretended to touch his mask and shook his head with a sigh. "Back in the days, I was also a handsome guy in school. There were many girls who liked me. I had a great body. Who knew how many girls would scream for me when I took off my clothes. But who knew that someone more handsome than me would suddenly appear. When I saw him, I felt ashamed. From then on, I didn't dare to show my face to scare people. "
As soon as Xiao Ran finished speaking, Goodman's face darkened. General Jin, who was sitting next to him, also coughed lightly and quickly picked up his tea to hide his smile. Jin also realized. This ridiculously young general seemed to have a bad temper and was not to be trifled with. So he wisely kept his mouth shut.
It was not until Xiao Ran had finished speaking that the two of them realized that Xiao Ran was actually rebutting Brigadier General Goodman's words. She had even tactfully said that since he was ugly, he should not meet anyone. Especially when Xiao Ran had emphasized that he had a great figure, and the one with the worst figure here was none other than this fat Brigadier General Goodman.
The officers and soldiers of the First Lieutenant Union standing behind Xiao Ran's chair also turned their heads and tried hard to hold back their laughter. Graham, on the other hand, laughed heartily and said, "If the general is afraid of scaring people, then people like us should not even step out of the door."
"You're exaggerating, exaggerating." Xiao Ran waved his hand with his back facing Graham and said, "Actually, I'm just not that confident in myself. In this world, there are still many people who are very confident in their looks, even if others can't accept it."
"Bang!" Goodman slammed the teacup in his hand on the table, making a loud noise. Coincidentally, Rodia also brought a few soldiers with him, carrying freshly cooked food. Xiao Ran acted as if he didn't see or hear Goodman's actions. He smiled at Jin and Goodman and said, "Come, come, come, don't be shy. The food made by the chefs here tastes very good."
Major General Jin nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you for your hospitality, General Xiao."
Xiao Ran smiled and said to Goodman, "Brigadier General Goodman, don't be shy. Help yourself."
"Thank you, but I'm not hungry." Goodman replied with a sullen face.
Xiao Ran shook his head and said regretfully, "What a pity. It seems that Brigadier General Goodman is not blessed. Come, come, come, Major General Jin, have some more. It's not bad, right?"
Major General Jin smiled and nodded. "It's not bad. Food from different countries and regions, and in a place like this. It's very fresh."
Xiao Ran laughed and nodded, then focused his attention on the movie.
The breakfast dragged on until Xiao Ran finished watching the movie. Although the officers behind Xiao Ran had been standing there for a long time, Xiao Ran did not forbid them from going to the toilet to rest. Moreover, seeing the people from the Revolutionary Federation and AEU standing there for nearly two hours, although they were tired, they were in a good mood.
When the movie was over, Xiao Ran patted his stomach and stood up. He no longer had the friendly smile on his face. Instead, he looked at Major General Jin and Brigadier General Goodman and said, "Welcome to the Stairway to Heaven of the Union. Let me formally introduce myself. I am Xiao Ran, currently the highest military officer in the Japanese Special Economic Region, and also the highest officer in charge of the Stairway to Heaven of the Union. Major General Jin, Brigadier General Goodman, welcome."
"We already know the purpose of your visit, and have prepared a meeting room. If you need to rest, we will start in the afternoon. If not, we will immediately start the discussion today."
Goodman stood up and waved his hand. He snorted in dissatisfaction. "We have waited for so long, I don't want to wait any longer. Let's start now."
Major General Jin nodded and stood up. "Then let's start now, but please give us some time to prepare."
"Of course." Xiao Ran turned to Lieutenant Colonel Rodia. "Lieutenant Colonel, you will be in charge of the arrangements for the two generals and their attendants. Make sure the guests feel our hospitality."
"Yes, sir!" Lieutenant Colonel Rodia saluted Xiao Ran and walked to Goodman. He gestured with his hand. "General Goodman, General Jin, please follow me. We will also prepare a place for you."
After Rodia left with a few people, Xiao Ran waved his hand and left. Naturally, someone cleaned up the table and chairs behind him. Before the meeting started, a very long video appeared on the internet. In the video, Xiao Ran was waiting for the people from AEU and the People's Revolutionary Alliance. Then, he asked someone to move the table out. He was minding his own business, watching a movie and eating breakfast. When Xiao Ran was sarcastic to Goodman, the video even zoomed in on Goodman's expression. All of a sudden, it set off a heated discussion on the internet, and it was a hot topic of ridicule.
The one who was praised was naturally Xiao Ran, and the one who was mocked was naturally Goodman, who had a dark expression the entire time.
The AEU and the Revolutionary Alliance prepared for about ten minutes before they entered the meeting room Xiao Ran had arrived in advance. There were not many people present. On Xiao Ran's side, Graham had to be present as the main character. Lieutenant Colonel Rodia, as the highest-ranking officer under Xiao Ran, also attended the meeting. There were also two majors present.
As for the Revolutionary Alliance, Major-General Jin was naturally present. There were also three or four people from the Secretary's side. It was the same for the AEU.
There were only a few people in the large conference room, so it seemed quite empty. At the beginning of the meeting, Major General Kim explained the whole process from the beginning of the operation to the failure, such as the situation and the orders given at the time. After that, he analyzed the Celestial's mecha and emphasized the new mecha's reinforcement. Basically, he described the situation in great detail and added a lot of analysis to it.
Most importantly, the AEU had to bear most of the responsibility for the failure of the battle.
