"How about this?" "Shall we make a bet?" Li Lifei asked with a smile.”
"Bet on what?" Xia Chu looked puzzled.
His right hand mimicked the shape of a pistol and he pretended to fire a few shots at the window. Li Lifei said half-seriously and half-jokingly,"If I beat Gao Shenghan, I will get more military merits than him in half a year. I will be promoted faster than him and my military rank will be higher than his. Give up on him and consider accepting me.”
Xia Chu's expression suddenly became a little unnatural. She rolled her eyes and said gloomily,""I'm not betting with you. With Grandpa backing you up, you might really have a chance to win against him. Besides, we're siblings. Even if I give up on him, I shouldn't consider you.”
Although Li Zhan had retired, he still had a deep friendship with many military and political leaders. Many of the officers he promoted were still active in the military, armed police, or public security system.
It would always be an invisible help to Li Lifei's promotion.
Moreover, Li Lifei still had a spider flying car…
"We're not biological siblings. Your surname is Xia, and my surname is Li.”Li Lifei said in a relaxed tone.
"In my heart, you're my younger brother. You'll always be my younger brother," Xia Chu said angrily. They were family. It was impossible for them to have…the kind of feelings between a man and a woman.”He thought to himself,'Could it be that he really likes me, his sister?' Sigh! Unfortunately, my heart already belongs to Gao Shenghan.
" I'm just saying." Li Lifei shrugged and smiled." Pretend I didn't say anything."”
Xia Chu forced a smile and said,""Next time, don't bring up such things. Oh, right, are you still dizzy? Do you want me to cook you a bowl of ginger soup to help you drink?”She observed his expression with concern.
"No need." Li Lifei shook his head.
After pondering for a moment, Xia Chu persuaded,""Don't blame Grandpa. He's been a soldier all his life. He spends more time in the army than at home. He thinks about the country before his own family.”
Li Lifei nodded to show that he understood and asked casually,"When are they coming to scan the Spider Flying Carriage?”
Taking out her smartphone and checking the time, Xia Chu said,""They should be here soon." He stood up and walked to the aluminum alloy window, staring at the entrance of the courtyard.
Li Lifei got off the bed and quickly put on his coat. He walked over and stood beside her. He looked at the entrance of the courtyard and smiled bitterly."Trick! When I returned to China, Gao Shenghan immediately gave me a holiday and arranged for Zhao Xiaoya to follow me. When I got home, Grandpa immediately convinced me…Sigh! The technical officer was almost here to scan the Spider Flying Car and get the design blueprint. Hehe, the military's goal had been achieved.”
Before he finished speaking.
The handsome man and the beautiful woman saw an army green Dongfeng Warrior SUV and an army green military van roaring over and stopping in front of the electric gate of the courtyard.
Li Zhan was clearly prepared. He quickly walked out of Villa No. 1 and walked quickly to the entrance of the courtyard while using the electronic remote control to open the electric courtyard door.
Very quickly.
The Dongfeng Warrior SUV and the military van slowly drove into the courtyard…
In the bedroom on the second floor of Villa No. 2.
"Sis!" " I don't know." Li Lifei said gloomily," The share company and the share ratio. Don't fool me with Grandpa."”
Xia Chu smiled and comforted him." Don't worry. The country is rich now. They won't cheat you." They only wanted to mass produce Spider Flying Carriages and equip them with special forces on a large scale.”
A few minutes later.
The military van turned around, and the door of the van was aimed at the garage of Villa No. 1.
Six or seven technical officers wearing glasses quickly jumped out of the two military vehicles and walked to Li Zhan's side.
Li Zhan stood on the snow and waved at Li Lifei.
Li Lifei had no choice but to open the aluminum alloy window and take out his smartphone. According to Li Zhan's instructions, he used voice to remotely control the spider flying car and let it climb into the military van to receive X-rays, color ultrasound, infrared spectrums, and other military-grade equipment for scanning...
Two hours later.
Only then did the technical officers drive the two military vehicles away from the Li family compound with the size data and the three-dimensional virtual model of the spider flying car.
At night.
Li Lifei ate dinner at home, drank soup, accompanied Li Zhan and Xia Chu, chatted, and watched TV until late at night...
The next day.
It was half-past five, before dawn.
Li Lifei, who was wearing a field camouflage uniform with a satin satchel hanging from his waist and a pair of 07 combat boots, opened the door, walked out of the bedroom, and walked towards the spiral escalator.
When he passed by Xia Chu's bedroom, he stopped in his tracks. In the end, he gave up on the idea of saying goodbye to her as he did not want to wake her up.
He continued walking forward…
In the past, Li Lifei would not have set off so early when he returned to Thunderfire Base. Now that he had the spider flying car, he could avoid being seen by too many people. That was why he set off so early to return to Thunderfire Base.
Very quickly.
Li Lifei walked into the garage, got on the car, and sat in the driver's seat of the Spider Flying Car.
Just as he was about to close the cockpit cover.
Xia Chu, who was wearing a pure white knitted hat and a long white trench coat, walked into the garage and handed a thermos to Li Lifei. She smiled and said,""Lifei, finish your breakfast and go back to the base.”
She was making breakfast in the kitchen of Villa Number One. Therefore, when Li Lifei passed by the living room on the first floor of Villa No. 2, he did not hear any movement from the kitchen.
"You're so good to me?" With a smile on his face, Li Lifei took the thermos bottle with both hands. He lowered his head to look inside and found that it was steaming beef dumplings.
Xia Chu shrunk her neck and rubbed her hands as she explained,""You're rarely at home. If you were at home every day, I wouldn't be bothered to get up so early to make breakfast for you.”
"Thanks!" Li Lifei picked up the spoon and quickly scooped the dumplings into his mouth. He ate them with relish. The more he ate, the warmer his heart became.
After eating.
He handed the thermos back to Xia Chu and said with a complicated expression,""Help me take care of Grandpa."
This sentence was a bit like a dying wish.
He was a special forces soldier. Every time he went on a mission, there was a huge risk. He did not know if he would ever have the chance to return home.
"Yes." Although Xia Chu was already used to it, she still nodded with a serious expression.
"I'm leaving." After Li Lifei finished speaking, he closed the cockpit cover, held the steering wheel with both hands, and gently stepped on the accelerator pedal with his right foot.
The Spider Flying Car immediately climbed out of the garage and took off vertically. It rose to more than 20 meters in the air before it extended its eight metal spider legs and opened its six soft metal wings, flying toward the Thunderfire Base.
Xia Chu looked up at the spider flying car that was getting further and further away and silently prayed for Li Lifei's safe return.
