Chapter 1350 - 1364: There Is Only One Answer
An Ran pressed Jia Chenggang step by step, forcing him to look into her eyes, "Don’t talk about me and Xiao Xiao, do you know my sister-in-law is pregnant? With such a large dose, if we had drunk it, the baby in her belly would definitely have had problems.
Captain Jia, you keep saying we are too oppressive, that we are ruthless, then what about Wang Xia’s actions? She repeatedly ignored advice and did one outrageous thing after another. The situation she is in now is entirely of her own making; she can’t blame anyone else."
Jia Chenggang listened to An Ran’s accusations speechlessly. He knew Wang Xia put a lot of contraceptive drugs in their drinks. He thought, since they hadn’t drunk it, even if they did, there might not be any trouble. As long as there were no terrible consequences, everything could be mediated.
But he never imagined that the daughter of General Chief Guard Lin’s family was pregnant.
If it’s like An Ran said and they hadn’t noticed the drink was problematic that day, then now...
"But, but..."
Just as Jia Chenggang was about to speak further, Mu Xingfeng already stood beside An Ran, protecting her in an absolutely defensive stance, "Jia Chenggang, you mentioned the candidate situation of the Special Training Team. I can make it clear to you that even if you escalate this to General Chief Guard Lin, my answer will only be one: my Special Training Team will never recruit a guard like you."
The Special Training Team is the highest honor of the Imperial Guard Team. It is not only where elites of the Imperial Guard Team are, but more importantly, as a special entity, it faces more severe tasks and challenges.
In this team, there must not be a guard with flawed thoughts and conduct; impulsive actions by his guards cannot be tolerated; a minor mistake can be fatal.
Jia Chenggang’s stubbornness violates his core principles, and he would never entrust his life to a teammate who judges him.
Mu Xingfeng’s words shattered all hopes for Jia Chenggang and ignited his suppressed fury.
"Mu Xingfeng, when you said those words, did you ever remember you were also a mere guard? Did you remember we were brothers who shared life and death? Now you have become a Major General, have power in your hands, and have thrown away the camaraderie of the past. Is this not a disgrace to the military spirit of the Imperial Guard Team?
When you hold onto this woman and hurt Wang Xia’s family for her words, did you think about Haigang? Did you remember that you were once brothers sharing life and death? Did you consider why Haigang had to sacrifice? Without Haigang, how could you be here today?"
After speaking to Mu Xingfeng, Jia Chenggang turned his gaze to An Ran, eyes ablaze with fury, "An Ran, leave some leeway when dealing with people; don’t handle things so tightly. You have what you have today just because the Mu Family and Shen Family back you up. Without the Mu Family and Shen Family, what are you?"
Ding Liang and He Qing were always brought up under Mu Xingfeng’s leadership. They know Mu Xingfeng’s character well, and also see clearly the situations in the Nan’an Guard Team. As they saw Jia Chenggang increasingly losing his decorum, they were ready to intervene with clenched fists, but Mu Xingfeng stopped them.
At a time like this, dealing with someone like Jia Chenggang doesn’t require his subordinates to act, especially as they are groomsmen now.
Groomsmen starting a fight is not a good look, no matter the reason.
