Chapter 31 - A Show of Strength (Part 1/3) (1/2)

“I… will keep in touch with you often.” Qin Fen felt a bit diffident speaking these words. He really did wish to be able to contact Song Jia often, but these words were first said by Lin Liqiang. He couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty when repeating them.

Luckily, Song Jia didn’t discover Qin Fen’s guilty conscience. A smile of true happiness blossomed on her face, “I’m very pleased. You need to remember what you just said.”

Qin Fen nodded seriously. Even though he was used to a lonely life of solitude, he would still feel a bit depressed if there was no one to send him off to the military. He felt a special warmth in his heart with Song Jia sending him off and bidding him farewell.

“Remember to practice the Rejuvenation Art when you’re tired.”

“Yes.”

“If you get sick, remember to quickly go get checked up by the military doctor.”

“Okay.”

“Most importantly,” Song Jia stared at Qin Fen very seriously, “Remember to think of me.”

Thirty minutes was a short period of time. The large military transport ship’s horn of Pier Number 3 blared out.

The young recruits began to slowly board the military transport ship. Qin Fen pointed at the nonstop blaring of the horn, “I should go.”

Song Jia gently nodded, her voice becoming softer, “Take care.”

“I will.”

Qin Fen turned around and suddenly felt Song Jia’s hand resting on his shoulder. He subconsciously looked back, and just so happened to catch that beautiful face quickly approach.

Kiss ….

Her red lips carried the fragrance of orchids as they gently touched Qin Fen’s face like a dragonfly touching the water. Before Qin Fen could react, Song Jia had already turned and ran. Only her words echoed quietly within his ears, “Remember to think of me.”

Hundred of envcious gazes shot over, and Qin Fen’s face turned scorching hot. His heart was thumping fast as he reached to gently touch the spot where he was kissed. With a hand on his face, he followed the crowd and boarded the military ship.

The horn immediately blared after the final soldier boarded the ship, indicating that the ship was taking off. The enormous military transport slowly sailed out of port.

Song Jia stood in the middle of a crowd, watching the ship as it departed. She dialed Lin Liqiang’s number, “Qiangster, the military ship has set sail. You won’t have the chance to send him off even if you wanted to.”

“Jia Jia, men are different from women. How ugly is it to have two dudes chirp away like birds? Sometimes a real man can’t be overly emotional. All right! So it’s like this. I saw a beautiful girl. Talk to you later.”

At the shore, within the crowd of people sending their loved ones off, Lin Liqiang hung up the phone. He was normally very talkative, but today was different from the past.

“Humph….” Song Jia stared at her phone after being hung up on and shook her head, “I really don’t understand. They’re such good friends. Why did he go picking up girls instead of sending him off?

In a different corner of the crowd, Enzo Rota, silent as always, slowly turned and walked toward the exit to the port.
