Lin Qian entered the base with a pessimistic outlook. At the end of the day, she felt that she really didn't understand Li Jin. She didn't know what Li Jin was like in real life, what Li Jin was like at work, or who his friends were.
Indeed, she couldn't be like Tangning and make a bet. Tangning didn't care if it was good or bad. As long as she made a decision, she was willing to bear the consequences and wasn't afraid.
But, Lin Qian was different. She was afraid that if she didn't think things through or if it was too dangerous, she would give up.
It wasn't that she didn't want to fight for it, but fear was a part of her nature.
Soon, the two arrived at the training grounds. But, the first thing that came into view was not the soldiers training, but Li Jin and a few of his comrades. Among them was his so-called godsister, Han Xiao.
In reality, Han Xiao was also quite surprised. She never expected that Li Jin would bring Lin Qian to a place like this to meet his closest friends.
Could it be that he was for real?
"Qian Qian …" Li Jin naturally called out Lin Qian's name before pulling her into his embrace. He then looked at the group and said, "Last time, Qian Qian fainted, so I didn't have the chance to properly introduce you all. This is my girlfriend, Lin Qian. We will be settling down very soon."
This was the first time that Li Jin had admitted that he had a girlfriend in front of everyone. Even Han Xiao, who had been at the base for a few years, had never received such treatment. So, it was obvious that Li Jin was serious.
The soldiers looked at Lin Qian and then at Han Xiao before they finally replied, "Rascal, I didn't know you already had a girlfriend. Why didn't you tell us?"
"We've only known each other for a short period of time."
Lin Qian could tell that the soldiers looked a little unnatural. It was probably because of Han Xiao's presence.
Afterwards, Han Xiao excused herself, "I still have training to do, so I won't keep you company."
"Wait," no one expected Lin Qian to stop Han Xiao at a time like this.
Han Xiao assumed that Lin Qian wasn't the type of person to talk about the schemes between women in front of a man. But, that was exactly what Lin Qian was.
"Since Li Jin and Miss Han are both here today, I'll get straight to the point. Li Jin, let me ask you, is Miss Han your godsister?" Lin Qian asked as she looked at Han Xiao.
"No," Li Jin denied directly.
"But, Miss Han came looking for me last night. She wanted me to get used to her existence on behalf of her godbrother because she's your comrade-in-arms and it's inevitable that you'll end up working together. She told me not to be petty and to take care of my image because you're a soldier," Lin Qian repeated Han Xiao's words from the previous night in front of everyone.
"Since this is the right time, I'd like to respond to Miss Han. Firstly, you're too nosy. Even if you're a biological sister, you don't have the right to gossip about your brother's girlfriend behind his back, much less his godsister."
"Secondly, I do mind your existence because no woman can tolerate having such a scheming woman by their boyfriend's side. It's too dangerous."
"Thirdly, I admit that you soldiers are indeed amazing for protecting the country, but that is not a reason for you to look down on me. I am doing my job well in my position, which is beneficial to the progress and development of society. Why should I be inferior to you?"
"Your arrogance makes it impossible for me to deal with you. That's why I want to make things clear."
"Don't think that just because you've received a few days of training, you're so great that you can see through a woman's heart."
"When it comes to career, I admit that you're better than me. But, when it comes to relationships, I hope you can be more straightforward."
"I can compete with you fairly."
After hearing Lin Qian's words, everyone was stunned.
Who would have thought that this seemingly fragile woman was actually so strong. She didn't even give Han Xiao any face and humiliated her in front of all her comrades.
Lin Qian's words were quite straightforward, but that wasn't all.
She turned around and looked at Li Jin as she lectured him, "If you really have a godsister or a sweetheart online friend, I don't think we're suited for each other. I'm not a woman that seeks perfection. I hate it when my man gets involved with other women and I end up having to clean up after him."
"Qian Qian, are you jealous?" Li Jin did not think that she was fierce. He simply thought that she was cute when she was angry.
Lin Qian glared at him without replying. Afterwards, Li Jin replied, "Han Xiao and I are simply comrades. We were in the past, we are still friends and we will always be friends."
"Plus, I don't have any godsisters or sweetheart online friends. I simply have a jealous girlfriend."
As Han Xiao watched the loving couple, her previously flushed face turned pale white. Her eyes were filled with anger and embarrassment. She never expected Lin Qian to be so straightforward.
"Major General, I don't think it's necessary for the two of you to hurt the people around you when you're in a relationship. Even if Han Xiao has done something unkind, you should still consider Han Xiao's pride. After all, she's been by your side for so many years. Even if it's not love and we're simply comrades, there's no need to be so ruthless. Han Xiao, let me take you home, "one of the comrades refuted as he helped Han Xiao turn around.
But, Lin Qian was not convinced. So, she once again held the man back, "Since you've admitted that she's done something unkind, what makes you think that she's the only one that's been hurt?"
The man turned around and glared at Lin Qian. It seemed, he had a terrible impression of her. But, at this time, Li Jin said, "I'm not asking you to leave."
The two men stood there in a stalemate, not daring to take another step forward.
"I called you here today to see Qian Qian. Let me make it clear first, Qian Qian is my girlfriend."
"You can dislike her and disrespect her, but don't let me see you bully her like you did to Han Xiao last night. If you do, I will risk my life."
"I don't want another woman to go behind my back and try to flirt with Qian Qian again. I can't stand such filth."
"So, if something like this happens again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
After speaking, Li Jin subconsciously glanced at Han Xiao. Han Xiao endured the pain in her heart and walked away. She had never been humiliated like this before.
She had come to the military base for Li Jin's sake, yet this man was so heartless because of another woman. She thought that even if Lin Qian revealed the truth, he would still speak up for her. But, he didn't …
At the same time, she thought that Lin Qian was simple, but Lin Qian wasn't as easy to deal with as she thought.
