Chapter 753: Song Qi is warning us!

Amidst the laughter of the generals, Song Qi's conferment ceremony officially came to an end.

At this very moment, almost all the generals believed that Song Qi was merely being modest...

Only the Grand General and Wang Lao wore thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Soon, the crowd dispersed.

Song Qi also returned to the hotel in a huff.

Around noon.

The Grand General hosted a meal for the commanders of the four major military regions, the three major military branches, and Wang Lao.

At the dining table, once everyone was seated, the Grand General spoke quietly.

"Do you all feel that Song Qi was a bit strange today..."

Once these words were spoken.

The generals hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, a little. We all know that kid Song Qi is modest, but to say that in front of everyone today was truly too strange..."

Lu Debiao, who was relatively familiar with Song Qi, picked up a piece of cold dish and stuffed it into his mouth, answering intermittently.

"Besides, we all know Song Qi was joking, but does joking require being so serious and so agitated?"

"It was indeed too abnormal..."

Liu Tiefeng, sitting to the side, narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

"Could it be? Did we really misunderstand Song Qi? Perhaps the facts are really as he said? Are we overthinking it?"

"No!"

The Grand General shook his head silently, "Coincidences only happen once; how could they happen every single time?"

"When things are abnormal, there must be a demon!"

"Song Qi's move must have a deeper meaning; it's just that we haven't thought of it yet..."

Once the Grand General said this.

The generals nodded firmly one after another.

The next second, everyone's gaze instantly converged on Wang Lao.

Among everyone present, it was estimated that only Wang Lao's wisdom could discern Song Qi's intentions...

Feeling the eager and expectant gazes of the crowd.

Wang Lao's brain began to run at high speed, and a layer of fine cold sweat quietly appeared on his forehead.

But after a long time, Wang Lao remained silent.

After a long while, he finally shook his head with difficulty.

At this moment, the hearts of everyone present sank to the bottom.

Damn it!

Wang Lao, the only one who could understand Song Qi's meaning, was no longer effective...

What are we supposed to do now!

Isn't this a total disaster?

The scene fell into an eerie silence.

Chen Guoan, who had always been hot-tempered, suddenly became angry.

"That kid Song Qi is getting more and more arrogant! Making us guess here?"

"He won't even speak clearly!"

"I'm going back to hammer him right now to see if he talks! Putting on airs with me? Does he really not know who's who anymore?"

Having said that.

Chen Guoan stood up on the spot, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to go 'hammer' Song Qi to death.

Before he had taken a few steps, Chen Guoan felt a sudden chill in his back, and the Grand General's icy voice drifted from behind him.

"Chen Guoan!"

"If you dare mention hammering Song Qi one more time, I'll be the first to hammer you to death!"

"Damn it! We are a group of grown men sitting here, the high leadership of the Dragon Nation's military, claiming to be intellectually superior, and now look at us—we can't even hear the subtext of a little kid's words!"

"Opening your mouth to hammer Song Qi!"

"If this gets out, others will think our Dragon Nation's military has no one and is just a bunch of useless sacks!"

Listening to the Grand General's angry shout, Chen Guoan lowered his head in shame.

Just in the next second, Wang Lao, who had been silent, suddenly curled his lips into a smile of relief.

"Phew... I finally... figured it out..."

Hearing this, the generals immediately perked up and looked at Wang Lao.

"Old Wang! What did you think of?"

The Grand General's impatient voice came.

Wang Lao paused, sorted out his thoughts slightly, and then continued: "The meaning behind Song Qi's words was not modesty."

"He was warning us!"

Once these words were spoken, the room became so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

Warning... us?

This?

What does that mean?

Feeling the suspicious gazes of everyone, Wang Lao continued to speak.

"At first, I was wondering if Song Qi felt that the rank of Major General was too low!"

"That's why he did this on purpose in front of everyone to express his dissatisfaction..."

"But then I thought, with Song Qi's nature of being indifferent to fame and wealth, could he be so shallow and vulgar?"

"Impossible..."

Hearing this, the generals nodded like bobbleheads.

Clearly, they agreed with what Wang Lao said.

Wang Lao picked up the wine glass beside him and took a light sip.

Inside was Shaoxing yellow wine.

Wang Lao was from Shaoxing, so he was quite fond of yellow wine.

"I thought for a long time, and just now, I finally realized!"

"What Song Qi was talking about wasn't himself! It was our Dragon Nation's military!"

"Why was he so modest?"

"It was precisely to express that our current Dragon Nation's military is too impetuous and needs to be a bit more modest!"

"Even he, Song Qi, a person destined to go down in history and achieve unparalleled merit, calls himself an ordinary scientific researcher!"

"Look at us? After achieving a small victory with Song Qi's help, we've become arrogant and lost our way? Forgotten who we are?"

"Arrogant soldiers are bound to be defeated, everyone!"

Wang Lao's words, like a great bell, rang in the ears of everyone present.

At this moment, everyone, including the Grand General, was stunned.

Every person's face showed a thoughtful expression...

"So that's how it is?"

After a long while, the Grand General's voice finally came.

"Sigh! Song Qi is truly worthy of the name! His sharp insight and precise analysis of problems are truly astonishing!"

"A few days ago, an officer bragged in front of me that the Free Nation was nothing much, and I didn't take it to heart at the time." ===== CHAPTER 755 =====
