Chapter 12: Daydreaming
"The admission test will take place in a week. Have you decided what to prepare? We need to make sure that we have filtered everyone well this year. We need new passers who are mentally, emotionally, and physically fitting to our standards, especially, that concerns women..." Field Marshall Chan said during the meeting.
Then, he looked at Jeru and said, "Discuss everything with Zach once he comes back to report tomorrow. I will not take part in the coming admission test and will just watch. This time, all of you will decide by yourselves and don’t involve me. All I want is fair judgment... Make sure you judge them all fairly..."
The Generals with five ranks in front of him nodded in understanding. Then, he dismissed them all after discussing things that needed attendance inside the base.
Jeru, on the other hand, did not leave his seat.
Field Marshal Chan creased his forehead and asked, "Yes, Gen. Liu? Do you still need anything?"
Jeru gave him an awkward smile and said with a hesitating voice, "About your daughter joining the Military tests. I still think that it’s not a good idea for her because she looks very fragile. A-and she seems, I mean it’s just doesn’t fit her image to be p-ar..."
Field Marshal Chan rolled his eyes and interrupted the stammering words of the General. "You’re just bewitched by my daughter’s beauty, Gen. Liu. Trust me that girl is a wild animal and she will bite and scratch you till you bleed. So, if I were you I wouldn’t go near her or mind whatever she does because she hates it when people belittle her, especially, when she is eager to do something..."
"But, I still..." Jeru did not continue further and just sighed. Keira was his ideal type and to be honest, he was really attracted to her physically the moment he set his eyes on her. She looked so perfect, with her perfect curly lashes that emphasized her beautiful and expressive eyes, he felt she could melt him with her one gaze.
She definitely wouldn’t fit inside their base, rather, she was perfectly suitable to be his girlfriend...
Then, a wicked smile appeared on his face before he bid farewell and left the Field Marshal alone. That smile of Gen. Liu did not slip from Field Marshal’s observant eyes.
The Old Man shook his head as he stared at the young General’s back.
