By the time the troops arrived at the secluded training ground, it was already past midnight. Many of the soldiers had fallen asleep at the back of the vehicle while Bai Luo Yin, on the other hand, sat behind the driver's seat. As soon as the vehicle came to a complete stop at the station, he immediately turned his head back toward the dozen soldiers, whose heads were wobbling from side to side in their sleep and shouted an order. "We have arrived. Wake up, all of you. Stop sleeping!"

That sonorous reminder caused the driver in the front to jump in fright. It's already this late at night, and he sat for such a long ride, how come he's still so energetic?

Bai Luo Yin stood outside of the vehicle and watched as the soldiers got off, one by one.

Liu Chong was one of the last few to get off. When he caught sight of Bai Luo Yin standing with that awe-inspiring presence in front of the vehicle door, he consciously walked faster. But once he was actually off, he quickly turned around and ran after the larger group of soldiers ahead.

With one stretch of his arm, Bai Luo Yin firmly dragged him back.

Ever since Gu Hai punished him last time, this little officer had always kept at least three meters away from Bai Luo Yin.

"Are you holding a grudge against me?" Bai Luo Yin's voice was soft and gentle for once, which was rare to come by.

Liu Chong smiled reservedly, "I've never held any grudges against you. When I had just enlisted in the military, my life would have been extremely difficult that year if it wasn't for your additional care. I thought about a lot of things recently and felt that I have been a bit selfish. I had always believed that I was expressing my concerns for you, but contrary to my expectations... I was actually creating unnecessary problems for you."

Bai Luo Yin narrowed his eyes slightly as he scrutinized Liu Chong. "So, you haven't shown your face lately because you were busy thinking about all those useless things?"

"No, it's not..." Liu Chong awkwardly scratched his head, "I have been training hard to make up for all the sessions that I missed before. If I didn't make the most of it, I might not have been able to take part in this flight mission."

Bai Luo Yin nodded, "That's good, being ambitious is always great!"

Although Bai Luo Yin said that, Liu Chong noticed that he was more unusual than other days. His eyes were glistening with enthusiasm, emitting a ray of resplendent light in the dark night—it was as if he wasn't affected by the exhaustion of this journey even the slightest, and his whole body was exuding vibrancy and an endless stream of life force.

"Xiao Bai, are all your men here?" asked an urgent voice from afar.

Bai Luo Yin patted Liu Chong's shoulder, "It's good that you're not holding a grudge against me. Let's chat again when we have some time. Now, go and have a good rest!"
