517: His Grudge And The Fools

His Grudge And The Fools

Yun Jian's fresh and bright charm made everyone's eyes shine, especially the six young men of Battling Dragons who gasped involuntarily after a closer look at her face.0

Chu Ning and others alighted the jeep as well after Yun Jian. Ge Junjian then took them to the entrance and faced Ai Guoxun and his team.

"Officer Ge, it's been a long time!" Ai Guoxun's gaze turned piercing once it met Ge Junjian's.

As both nemeses met, there was naturally a gritted sense of loathing in their tone.

Ge Junjian and Ai Guoxun were both high-ranking militants and leaders of Advanced Special Forces, but their grudge went a long way back. 20 years ago, Ge Junjian, Ai Guoxun, and another man around their age were three sworn brothers.

They trained and lived together, sharing a bond so strong that they could talk the entire night away under their blankets. There was even once when they were caught by their superior doing that and were punished by holding a horse-riding stance for the whole night.

They collapsed come the second day but their camaraderie had only turned stronger. It was until Ai Guoxun did something Ge Junjian would never forgive him for, not even when he died.

It was an S grade mission, a high level of difficulty. Three of them were sent to annihilate a criminal den but Ai Guoxun was seized after he exposed himself. Ge Junjian and the other man had defied their superior's order to withdraw and risked their lives to rescue Ai Guoxun.

They succeeded. Yet, Ai Guoxun had grabbed their brother to shield a threat during the very last moment. The latter died, for Ai Guoxun.

Special Forces soldiers faced death constantly. While Ai Guoxun took their brother as his shield, he reported to their superior that the man was killed by the enemy instead because he was eager for success.

Ge Junjian came from a good family but his family background was nothing compared to Ai Guoxun's. Utilizing the powerful background he had, Ai Guoxun erased all his mistakes and carried on living his perfect life—all while their brother died for him in vain.

After the incident, Ge Junjian's relationship with Ai Guoxun turned from the closest comrades to the most resented enemy. Until this day, Ge Junjian was unable to walk out of remorse.

He regretted it. He should have stopped his brother. He should not have wasted his precious life for someone like Ai Guoxun.

It was all too late…

"Pleasure to meet!" Ge Junjian glared at Ai Guoxun, his tone reflecting nothing relevant to his words.

Ai Guoxun did not regard him too highly either. He looked at Ge Junjian before scoffing in his glance at Yun Jian and others who stood beside the man. Noting that all of them looked skinny and small, he felt good about it.

"After you." It was cursory when Ai Guoxun said it.

Ge Junjian snorted coldly before waving at his team to enter the base after him.

As this was a duel between two teams under the Advanced Special Forces leaders and they were fighting for ASF quota, a superior ranked higher than both men were attending. Before he arrived, the contest would not begin.

As Yun Jian and her teammates stood their ground, Chu Ning and the rest had begun doing warm-up exercises that Yun Jian had taught.

"Haha, look, what are they doing? They look like fools!" A heavy young man who was more than 100 kilogram from Battling Dragons taunted.
