Chapter 271: He Teng Gets a Promotion 7_1
"The capital isn’t in traffic hour now," Lin Chan suddenly said before giving He Teng a meaningful glance.
"Correct, correct!" Kang Xing nodded repeatedly, "Work hour rush is over. What cars would be on the road?"
"No more excuses! Get back to the base immediately, that’s an order!"
The command made Kang Xing silent. Lin Chan struggled to suppress his laughter, "As the old saying goes, a general may not heed an order when in the field. And right now, we have this sickly and pitiful shrimp of a soldier lying in a hospital bed!"
Kang Xing shook his head defiantly, "I can’t disobey the platoon leader’s order; the consequences would be severe!"
"Ambition!" Lin Chan threw out the word.
Unperturbed, Kang Xing bid goodbye to He Teng, who was lying on the bed. After that, he turned to He Zhilan and sniggered, "Sister-in-law! Could you accompany me down?"
"Kang Xing! Are you still dependent on mommy?" He Teng bellowed. The audacity to ask his wife for a favour, was his nerve becoming limitless?, "It’s such a short trip and you need someone to accompany you? Can’t you navigate it on your own?"
Caught off-guard, Kang Xing mumbled, "I just wanted to spend more time with my sister-in-law. After staying only a few days at the base, she’s already leaving, and so am I, after only a brief chat with her. We haven’t had time to get closer, so I must seize every opportunity!"
