    His tone was calm but there was another meaning behind his words.


    “I know very well!”


    Yang Yi frowned as his sight trained back on Wen He’s face with his chilly tone. “I’ll count to three, if you don’t surrender now, both you and Lu Bai will die here!”


    Wen He ignored him and stared intently at Huo Chen.


    “Huo Chen!”


    “One!”


    “Huo Chen, you’re not willing to help me?”


    “Two!”


    “You asshole, I’m your wife!”


    Her pleads were met with deafening silence and Huo Chen simply stood where he was in attention like a solid spear facing the sky.


    His well-proportioned face was calm and was unfazed in the face of her question.


    That cold ruthlessness sank Wen He’s heart slowly.


    “Three!”


    The soldiers surrounding her had their fingers ready on the trigger, and Yang Yi’s brow twitched, and suddenly...


    “I surrender!”


    Wen He put Lu Bai down and raised both her hands in the air.


    She knew this was not the time, she could not afford to let Lu Bai die here before taking him away.


    “Very well.”


    Yang Yi was relieved and raised his hand.


    A few soldiers surged forward and subdued Wen He before cuffing her.


    Wen He looked down and simply allowed her to drag her away.


    As she passed by Huo Chen, she suddenly stopped, a faint scorn appeared on her face and she sneered. “I was mistaken about you!”


    Wen He tried to surprised the unknown pain in her heart, as a self-depreciating smirk appeared on tip of her lips while she was dragged to the prison.


    Huo Chen looked on as her figure disappeared, his expression did not change.


    Song Shou walked over and saw him clenching his fist with veins visibly appearing on his fair hands. It didn’t take much to know how much strength was being used there.


    In the army, regtions reigned supreme and even if his officer was a major general, with Commander Yang as themander of the military district, he could not go against him openly.


    And most importantly, it was Miss who had made a misstep.


    If his sir was to disobey orders and to act rashly, the end result was inevitably being both of them thrown into the mmer.


    Miss should have thought of this, if sir was to get thrown in the mmer as well, who could save her?


    “Major General Huo,” Yang Yi suddenly spoke, “I’m d that you had not forgotten your standing as a soldier.”


    “Is that so?”


    Huo Chen stared at him and said inly before Yang Yi’s imposing presence. “But I have to remind you,mander, I’m afraid that you are forgetting our original goal.”


    “And what do you mean by that?”


    Huo Chen ignored the change in Yang Yi’s expression. His face was calm and his gaze peaceful with no edge to it, yet every word he spoke had Yang Yi had lost for words.


    “We had spent so much effort to capture Lu Bai, and what for? Was it not to recruit him? But you had not say hello before torturing him. This will only push Lu Bai further away. Do you think that he will still willingly work for us?”


    Those words, half of it was a reminder and the other was facts with a hint of censuring.


    “...”


    Yang Yi could not retort.


    He was actually censured by a subordinate!


    This gave Yang Yi no avenue to retreat and he stared aggressively at Huo Chen, roaring at him as frustration turned into anger.


    “When I agreed to let you bring Wen He into the armory, it’s all because you said she would be able to redeem herself with deeds that I gave her that chance. What happened to that? Not only did she was useless, she even made a bloody scene! Is this not your responsibility? Huo Chen, from today onwards, they are under my personal charge. Do not interfere or else don’t me me if anything happens!”
