Chapter 1178: 1178
There was a hint of a smile in his voice . This was the perfect seduction tactic and it was irresistible . Bo Jiu had no intentions of resisting him, allowing him to wipe her face obediently .

There were piercing glares from the side but she wasn’t concerned since it was a chance to claim ownership over the Almighty .
Hunter and Magician returned to the unit with weakened limbs . Previously, they had been gossiping about their relationship but now that it has been confirmed, how could they continue to gossip?! It was not allowed in the military . Boss, why are you doing this?
It wasn’t just that kiss, the candy incident spread throughout the unit in just one afternoon . Everyone was speculating the relationship between Qin Mo and Bo Jiu and naturally, word reached the old general .
“What did you say? That lad gave someone candy? Is this a joke?” The general took a sip of tea .
The deputy general ended with a salute, “Reporting, everything is true . ”
The old general had more to add but the main lead was already at the door . He stood tall and firm in his military uniform against the light outside . His aura was so formidable the experienced deputy general was afraid . No, how could he be afraid? He was considered a junior .
The old general shifted his stand almost instantly, his original gossipy expression was replaced by a bright smile, looking like a wise elder . “You’re here? The mission was a success . ”
Qin Mo entered the room and executed a perfect salute, his tone lazy . “General, you must have heard . ”

The old general took a sip of tea . ” Heard? What did I hear?”
“News about me . ” Qin Mo didn’t beat around the bush, going straight to the point .
The old general pretended to be clueless, turning towards his deputy general . “This boy is going to be mysterious, what news does he have?”
“Reporting, I’m not sure as well . ” The deputy general was an honest man, blushing the moment he lied .
Qin Mo glanced over slowly . “General, you have been concerned about recruit No . 10 and must have known of his activities . For instance, the incident when he pressed himself on me . That news must have reached you pretty long ago . Deputy General Li was once in intel, such news shouldn’t have posed much trouble . Old General, since you insist that you haven’t heard, I can give you a brief update as the party involved . As I have a special relationship with recruit No . 10, we aren’t suited to go on operations together . He will not be inside the operations team for the next operation outside the border . ”
For the first time, the old general had a stern expression . He reached out and pinched his temples . “Qin Mo, you are not an emotional person . ”
“After today, I realized I am . ” There wasn’t any change in his emotions . “I wasn’t able to stay calm when someone pointed a gun at his head . I cannot lead my team with a focused mind, I wouldn’t be able to complete the mission . ”
The old general looked up at him . “But today, your performance has been exceptional . ”

“It’s not the same outside the borders . ” Even until this moment, his thoughts were still affected by that moment . “We won’t have any reinforcements, conditions to go into disguise or an option to retreat . ”
The old general wasn’t giving up that easily . “Recruit No . 10 is an exceptional technical soldier . ”
“I agree . ” Qin Mo could imagine her fingers flying across the keyboard . At that moment, he chuckled, the cold in his eyes warming . “There aren’t many who can surpass him in computer skills . ”
The deputy general: … Are you flaunting about him now?
“But . ” Qin Mo paused, turning back to the old general, his voice calm . “If it was your daughter, would you allow her into the war zone?”
The old general had a daughter and had once intended for them to meet . He was a soldier himself and indeed, he had no intentions of letting her join the frontlines as that was a place that could take lives .
Qin Mo chuckled, an indescribable emotion within . “You wouldn’t . ”
The old general choked . He was at a loss for word . “Child, you’re being stubborn, he isn’t your daughter . ”

“Indeed, he isn’t my daughter . ” Qin Mo stood up, stuffing a hand into his pockets, looking lazy but there was glint in his eyes . He replied in a casual tone, his words shocking the both of them, “He is my life . ”
With only four words, the old general was defeated .
Qin Mo stood up, his back against the light . “Make him stay behind for the mission tomorrow . ” His words were kept within four walls .
Silence fell down on the room after Qin Mo’s departure . It seemed like a long time had passed when the clock rang .
The old general tapped the table . “Did he just ask me for a favor?”
“It sounds like it . ” Even though it was unbelievable, the deputy general was still dazed by his words . Who would have thought that the devil could ask someone for a favor?
They had never expected such words to leave him but that was the truth . That was an indication of recruit No . 10’s position in his heart .
“Send the name list over . ” The old general put his teacup down, his eyes dimming . The mission for the day after had been decided and he played a minor role . No one knew how dangerous it would be . But those that joined had an idea because the stricter it was the more unpredictable the circumstances .
After the incident today, two of them seemed to be affected . They were at the top of the unit and were courageous but the quality of sleep could easily affect their condition .
The doctor wrote a cross on their mental state . For the upcoming mission, the soldier’s physical condition wasn’t the only requirement . Their mental state would also be analyzed since the enemy was a master at hypnotist . That was the real nightmare…
The unit continued to be in a tense state and even after a successful mission, they continued their usual duties .
The atmosphere increased in intensity as the selections approached . Practically everyone was covered in dirt .
Whether the rumors or the fatigue from training caused it but one of the soldiers bolted upright during break time, looking towards Bo Jiu . “Dare to fight?”
During the mission, this recruit had been situated at the most external area and hadn’t been aware of what was happening . But he knew that those that remained in the unit because of connections were a disrespect to everyone else .
