Chapter 1556

Li Ruanyu 【If there's something hidden going on, you can tell me now, and I'll help you think of a way together. I know what kind of person Shangguan Ting is. If there's an issue between you two, it must be her coming to pick a fight. I'll definitely stand on your side, so don't worry.】

Li Ruanyu 【I've opened teleportation access for you. You can teleport directly outside the office building. Come over as soon as possible.】

What's it about this time?

Zhao Chi frowned and finished listening to Li Ruanyu's voice message.

He was feeling a bit irritated.

Of course Shangguan Ting's attitude was good — she wanted to see the 10 o'clock appearance of Zhao Chi, so naturally she had to be polite and courteous when seeking out Li Ruanyu.

But Li Ruanyu neither agreed to call Zhao Chi over for her, nor gave her Zhao Chi's contact information, so of course she reverted to her usual self.

But Zhao Chi hadn't expected Gu Zhan to come this time too?

Gu Zhan was the vice captain of Binghe's main force — the host on stage at the commendation ceremony before was him.

Shangguan Ting actually called him over too?

Just to meet me?

Damn it…

Zhao Chi really didn't want to go, but he couldn't not go.

After all, the trouble was happening in Li Ruanyu's office, and he as the person involved definitely had to show up.

But this was actually fine.

After all, Shangguan Ting was a squadron captain, and Li Ruanyu was also a squadron captain. There was still a grudge between the two of them, so Li Ruanyu definitely couldn't keep her in check.

With Gu Zhan here this time, half a rank above Shangguan Ting, what he said should carry weight.

Moreover, Shangguan Ting pulling Gu Zhan over was also to have him back her up in pressuring Li Ruanyu.

So Gu Zhan could definitely also influence Shangguan Ting.

Then let's go.

Although last time Shangguan Ting said the matter between the two of them was already over, the misunderstanding resolved.

But in the end she still sucked out a tube for Zhao Chi.

No matter what her psychology or thoughts were at the time, this matter definitely wouldn't end.

It wouldn't be good if next time they met, Shangguan Ting found Zhao Chi wasn't as attractive as she remembered, got furious out of embarrassment, and came looking for trouble again.

Then let's go now, and in front of Gu Zhan, completely resolve this damn thing once and for all!

Zhao Chi replied 【Okay sis, I'll come right over】

He clicked the coordinates and teleported immediately.

In an instant, Zhao Chi arrived outside the Jasper Squadron office building.

There were a few people scattered around walking about, and the spirit-energy lamps on both sides emitted white light, still fairly bright.

Zhao Chi didn't waste any time, immediately entering the building and heading toward Li Ruanyu's office.

Li Ruanyu's office door was tightly shut.

Standing at the door, he couldn't hear any sound from inside.

Zhao Chi knocked lightly on the door.

Knock knock knock!

The door opened immediately.

It was Gu Zhan who opened the door.

Gu Zhan looked to be in his thirties, appeared very young, and his features gave off a sense of reliability.

But at this moment he had a somewhat helpless, amused expression.

Seeing Zhao Chi, he immediately said: "Zhao Chi, you've finally arrived. Come in quickly."

That expression of his…

Probably nothing good.

Zhao Chi politely said: "Hello, Vice Captain Gu."

Gu Zhan shook his head: "No need for pleasantries, go in quickly. Everyone's just waiting for you."

Zhao Chi nodded and walked into the office.

Same as last time.

Li Ruanyu stood behind the desk, Shangguan Ting stood in front of the desk.

Both women were wearing uniforms.

Black short skirts, ultra-thin stockings, black high heels.

Li Ruanyu's face also had a helpless expression.

Shangguan Ting frowned, her features fierce.

But the moment she heard the knock, her expression immediately changed.

Her tightly furrowed brow relaxed, and the corners of her mouth even curved slightly upward.

The fierce woman became gentle and beautiful.

Zhao Chi took a deep breath: "Captain Li, Captain Shangguan."

Shangguan Ting laughed: "Why are you still calling me Captain Shangguan? Have you forgotten what you should call me? Even outside is fine… Hm? You're Zhao Chi!??"

Her voice was sweet and lovely in the first half, but the last few words were a sharp, interrogating tone.

What had to come would always come.

This hurdle couldn't be avoided.

Fortunately, with both Li Ruanyu and Gu Zhan here now, Shangguan Ting couldn't do anything too outrageous in front of the two of them, so Zhao Chi wasn't worried.

Zhao Chi said: "It's me. What did Captain Shangguan want to see me about?"

Shangguan Ting's brow furrowed once more.

She clenched her silver teeth, fury rising.

An expression of utter disbelief on her face.

"You're Zhao Chi? How could you be Zhao Chi? Zhao Chi isn't like this!?"

Shangguan Ting rushed over, staring fixedly at Zhao Chi's face.

"Shangguan Ting, what do you think you're doing?"

Li Ruanyu also immediately rushed out from behind the desk, positioning herself protectively beside Zhao Chi.

Gu Zhan also walked over and said: "Captain Shangguan, calm down. Whatever it is, just say it. Now that Zhao Chi is here too, you can go ahead and speak."

However, Shangguan Ting paid no attention to either of them at all, still staring fixedly at Zhao Chi.

"No, it's impossible, you're not Zhao Chi!"

Shangguan Ting said it with absolute finality.

Li Ruanyu said angrily: "Shangguan Ting, that's enough! We don't have time to indulge your nonsense! You've come here making trouble time and again — what exactly do you want? The misunderstanding between you and Zhao Chi is simply laughable. I just discussed it with Chief Captain Gu, and Captain Gu also agrees with the solution I proposed. What more do you want?"

Li Ruanyu's voice was very loud.

Though her usual way of speaking was neither as gentle as Qi Yue's nor as soft and alluring as Gu Qing's, it was a kind of voice that fell somewhere between the two of them.

A woman's uniquely magnetic voice, yet one that sounded very pleasant to the ear.

But this time her voice had become just like Shangguan Ting's — forceful in tone, sharp in pitch.

Clearly she was angry too.

Gu Zhan said: "Captain Li, you calm down too. We're all one main unit. The Jade and the Phantom squads are both very important combat forces. We really shouldn't keep fighting. Both of you take a step back — I need to ask Zhao Chi first."

Li Ruanyu glanced at Gu Zhan, then stepped back half a pace.

But Shangguan Ting completely turned a deaf ear, as if she hadn't heard a thing.

"No, no, no, you can't be Zhao Chi, impossible!"

She was getting somewhat hysterical.

Zhao Chi found it rather strange.

Although this woman Shangguan Ting was extreme, she certainly wasn't a fool — a fool could never serve as the captain of a combat squadron.

She had clearly seen what he looked like before; it was impossible that she would forget after just one look at his 10-point appearance. That couldn't be.

Watching her behavior, it seemed she didn't disbelieve that he was Zhao Chi — she was afraid to believe it.

She couldn't bring herself to believe he was Zhao Chi.

Presumably after she went back and calmed down, she would also feel her own behavior was absurd.

A female captain nearly thirty years old, yet she'd done something so intimate with a man she'd only met three times — it was simply inconceivable.

Although at the time she said it was to make Zhao Chi uncomfortable, and Zhao Chi had believed her then.
