Ye Ming no longer paid attention to Wan Yang as he yelled his head off, only watching with a detached expression as he was led away.
Chu Feng, having been greatly embarrassed by this incident, had no desire to linger, immediately dispersing his people.
It wasn’t until the crowd had scattered that Yang Tianxiong ambled over to Ye Ming with a chuckle, saying, "Ye Ming, I made a special trip over here mainly because there’s something I want to discuss with you!"
Seeing Yang Tianxiong’s ingratiating smile, Ye Ming had already guessed what it was about and said, "I suppose Minister Yang is here regarding the upcoming international competition, right?"
When Ye Ming was still with Falcon Squad, he had already heard about the international competition. Yang Tianxiong had asked for his help, and his coming over again probably meant the date was near and he wanted to confirm Ye Ming’s participation.
Yang Tianxiong nodded and said, "Now that you’ve guessed it, I won’t beat around the bush, there are five more days until the international competition starts, and the location is in Japan."
"Japan?" Ye Ming was slightly taken aback, evidently a bit surprised.
Yang Tianxiong nodded and said, "This time, we are counting on you to bring glory to Dragon Country. We hope you can win the championship and open their eyes!"
Ye Ming showed a troubled expression and slowly said, "Mr. Yang, to be honest, I’ve encountered some trouble recently. My girlfriend was seriously injured, and our home was destroyed."
"So... speaking of going abroad, I’m still somewhat worried."
The smile on Yang Tianxiong’s face instantly vanished, and his gaze turned strange, incredulously looking at Ye Ming, then glanced at Wang Yating standing beside him.
Noticing the awkward atmosphere, Yang Tianxiong did not press further, silently admiring in his mind. freewebnøvel.com
This Ye Ming kid, his abilities were indeed outstanding. He had just managed to win over Wang Yating, which was already incredibly surprising. But who would have thought he had another girlfriend.
However, to ensure Ye Ming could participate in the international competition without concerns, Yang Tianxiong still patted his chest and said, "Rest assured, now you are our honored guest. We will take responsibility for your friends’ safety! If anything happens, you can hold me accountable!"
With Yang Tianxiong’s assurance, Ye Ming could let go of his worries. He no longer needed to be concerned about the safety of Xu Lele and the others, unless someone was foolish enough to cross Yang Tianxiong.
"In that case, Mr. Yang, then I have nothing to worry about!" Ye Ming replied.
Yang Tianxiong laughed, patted Ye Ming on the shoulder, and said, "Good, then I look forward to your performance!"
After settling affairs, Yang Tianxiong turned to leave, boarding the helicopter with his confidants and flew away.
Next, Wang Yating disbanded the gathering on the spot, sending off other members of Falcon Squad and insisting on taking Ye Ming home.
Xu Xincheng also started to pester relentlessly, begging Wang Yating to take him along.
He had been with Falcon Squad for quite some time. Now that he had the rare opportunity to go out, he wanted to visit his sister.
Eventually, Wang Yating could not resist his persistence and agreed. free𝑤ebnovel.com
The car left the forest and headed towards Xia Ningning’s villa.
Wang Yating was determined to hold Xia Ningning in her arms, unintentionally trapping Xia Ningning’s hand.
Xia Ningning, within her slumber, whether the medication hadn’t worn off or she was having a vivid dream, was restlessly moving her hands and feet in sleep.
It was deliberately done by Wang Yating to prevent her from taking advantage of Ye Ming.
But Ye Ming’s thoughts weren’t there.
He looked at Xu Xincheng with some guilt and said, "Before, your sister suffered a serious injury."
"What?" Xu Xincheng’s complexion changed dramatically, and he asked loudly, "What happened to her? What did you do to her?"
Ye Ming had already guessed Xu Xincheng would react this way.
He recounted the recent events and informed Xu Xincheng.
Yet, Ye Ming did not disclose how serious it was.
Xu Xincheng was so angry that his whole body trembled. If it weren’t for the fact that he was driving, he probably would have lashed out at Ye Ming by now.
"Damn it, it’s all your fault for stirring up trouble and dragging my sister into this. If anything happens to her, I will never forgive you!"
After leaving Falcon Squad, their relationship was no longer that of an instructor and a member, and Xu Xincheng spoke without any courtesy.
The car’s speed kept increasing, and they quickly arrived outside Xia Ningning’s villa.
Xu Xincheng left everyone behind, got out of the car, and ran towards the villa to check on his sister’s injuries.
Two girls and Ye Ming were left in the car.
Wang Yating suddenly asked, "Xu Xincheng’s sister is the one you have feelings for, isn’t she?"
Ye Ming’s heart skipped a beat, and he hesitated to look at her but still nodded and said, "Yes, that’s right."
Wang Yating wasn’t upset; instead, she was somewhat curious.
She wanted to see for herself what kind of woman could occupy Ye Ming’s thoughts so deeply that he had even turned her down because of Xia Ningning.
After entering the villa, they saw Xu Xincheng sitting beside Xu Lele with a cold expression, looking very unstable, as if he were forcefully suppressing his anger.
Xu Lele quickly stood up to greet them, her gaze fixed on Wang Yating, who had followed Ye Ming.
Their eyes met, sparking a fierce collision.
"So, you are Miss Xu?" Wang Yating asked calmly.
Xu Lele nodded and asked in return, "You must be Captain Wang of Xin Cheng’s unit, right? Thank you for taking care of my younger brother at the Martial Department. He must have caused you a lot of trouble, didn’t he?"
"No, your brother has performed very well and has made great progress," Wang Yating said coolly.
"I often heard Ye Ming mention you when we used to be together. Today, finally seeing you in person is indeed a surprise."
Wang Yating now had a good idea of what to expect; no wonder Xia Ningning’s sweet looks and gentle demeanor were so memorable to Ye Ming.
However, this didn’t mean Wang Yating was ready to admit defeat.
Xu Lele replied with a light smile, "Captain Wang, you flatter me. Before Ye Ming took the position at the Martial Department, he was very reluctant to go. I had to persuade him heavily. The reason he joined the Falcon Squad was to handle another matter."
"It seems, however, that he hasn’t managed to accomplish that matter yet."
Wang Yating knew exactly what she was talking about: it was to break off the engagement with her.
Wang Yating could certainly feel the determination in Ye Ming, so resolute. If it hadn’t been for her assertive approach back then, Ye Ming might have actually succeeded in breaking off the engagement.
But even after their brief exchange, Wang Yating was deeply shaken.
She felt completely outclassed by Xu Lele; after all, her feelings for Ye Ming were unrequited, while Xu Lele had captured Ye Ming’s genuine affection.
Thinking this, Wang Yating felt a bit indignant and said, "By the way, you might not yet know, but in a few days, I’ll be going to Japan with Ye Ming to participate in an international competition. We’ll be there for over half a month, and during that time, we will be together. You won’t have a problem with that, will you, Miss Xu?"
