Bai Luo Yin thought that after Gu Yang left in a fit of rage, that matter would immediately come to an end. How could he have known that it was only the beginning? The next day, Gu Yang went straight to HaiYin High-Tech Co. without a moment of hesitation, and under the disguise of Gu Hai's impeccable reputation, he caused all kinds of damage. He even dared to flirt with the division manager in front of all employees, completely shattering Gu Hai's image.

Nevertheless, those things were not considered as serious matters. The most repulsive of all was, every day, when Bai Luo Yin dragged his exhausted body back to his dorm, he would open the door thinking that Gu Hai had returned only to see that it was not him. That kind of defeated and overthrown feeling was absolutely indescribable.

Relying solely on that blueprint, Gu Yang had taken advantage of Bai Luo Yin numerous times. He has also come to completely understand that, rather than sleeping with Bai Luo Yin and causing the blueprint to lose its effectiveness, he might as well hold on to it longer and lengthen its usage toward a more stable and effective outcome. In that way, he could take revenge, while slowly cultivating his relationship with Bai Luo Yin at the same time.

Meanwhile, the old demon Zhou Ling Yun finally emerged on the training field.

Bai Luo Yin has truly experienced what it was like to be surrounded by enemies and isolated without any help from all four corners.

"Major Bai, what are you thinking about?"

Zhou Ling Yun's voice resounded in the middle of the empty training field.

That's true, you didn't hear wrong. It was really empty. Only Bai Luo Yin alone was standing in the middle of the deserted training field. He was currently enjoying the training sessions that Commander Zhou had especially prepared for him; enjoying the rare honor of training alone with thousands of eyes watching him.

Zhou Ling Yun stepped down from the platform and walked to Bai Luo Yin's side, and when his lids rose, that scalding and provocative gaze burned the person he glared at.

"I realized that it was a huge mistake on my part to make such as rash decision in going out of my way to find a good successor elsewhere when a genuinely talented expert is in front of me. From now on, I will be faithful to you until I die. I will no longer waste my time or thoughts on any good-for-nothing loser."

Yes, that's right. It was only until today did Bai Luo Yin came to realize that Zhou Ling Yun's so-called "fascination" towards Gu Hai was—in truth—due to his plasticity, that was, the quality to be easily shaped and molded as he deemed fit. He praised the perfection of Gu Hai's body because he believed that he had the potential to become an extraordinary pilot. He admired Gu Hai's mischievous nature because he truly believed he has the psychological mindset to brave any combat thrown his way.

Unfortunately, Bai Luo Yin was too late in realizing those points.

Once the conspiracy was exposed, Zhou Ling Yun finally knew that Bai Luo Yin was the real mastermind behind the scenes. What a pleasant surprise! In the past, he had always thought that Bai Luo Yin was perfect in everything except for one flaw, and that was, he thought that kid's conscience was too upright which would make it hard for him to become a capable person. Now that all is well and the empty gap of cruelty has been fulfilled, Bai Luo Yin became the apple of his eye.

"Commander, I believe I have a lot of flaws. I am not qualified to receive such favor from you."

Zhou Ling Yun magnanimously patted Bai Luo Yin's shoulder, "Who doesn't have a little flaw? Honestly, it's a good thing to have some since it proves that you still have room to improve."
