68: Chapter 67 Lu Tianxing Gets Angry 68: Chapter 67 Lu Tianxing Gets Angry Seeing Zhao Lin stop, Bai Zhiqing, who was quite enjoying the conversation, immediately asked, “Senior, why did you stop?”

“What is there to say, really.”

At that moment, Lu Tianxing, whose face had darkened without anyone knowing when, glared like a beast on the brink of a rampage, emanating a slight aura of violence, “Your words just reek, and what are you planning on saying next?

How heroically brave you are, how selflessly you put others before yourself, planning to have your comrades run first while you stay behind to cover their retreat with your life?”

Lu Tianxing was now furious beyond measure.

Zhao Lin’s words had hit a nerve, digging up deep-seated memories.

His life had been saved by his comrades at the cost of their own, and he would not allow anyone to insult that fact.

If what Zhao Lin said was true, then it would be another matter.

He was a soldier himself and had always respected fellow soldiers.

However, not a single word coming from Zhao Lin’s mouth was true, not even the fact that he was a soldier.

Having been a soldier himself, he knew their conduct and that it was hard to change even after leaving the service.

Zhao Lin might imitate the air of a soldier, but it always came off as pretentious, and a soldier would never speak of such things.

It wasn’t only due to confidentiality; it was because that honor was sacred to a soldier, not some tool for picking up girls.

Zhao Lin was basking in self-satisfaction, waiting for Bai Zhiqing to bite the bait.

He never expected Lu Tianxing to burst out in anger.

After a moment of stunned surprise, he internally burst into laughter.

Tianxing had taken the bait, and his plan was finally coming together.

Next, he would drive a wedge between Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing.

Once their relationship crumbled, he could step in as the comforter, and winning over the beauty would pose no issue.

Though he was secretly delighted, Zhao Lin’s face betrayed none of it; instead, he looked furiously at Lu Tianxing, his tone filled with rage, “Lu Tianxing, what do you mean by that?

I know you resent me, and that’s fine, because you are Zhiqing’s husband, I can tolerate you, but I absolutely will not allow someone to insult our military honor.

To me, it’s sacred and solemn.”

“Sacred and solemn, do you even have the right to say that?

Are you even a soldier?

Don’t think that by copying some aspects of a soldier’s demeanor you become one.

I’m telling you, you’re just a piece of dog shit, spouting fabricated tales.

Do you think this is some kind of movie?

Only silly, naive fools like her would believe your words.” Lu Tianxing said with a sneer.

Zhao Lin shouted furiously, “Lu Tianxing, what do you mean by that?

Even if you are Zhiqing’s husband, I will not allow you to sully our honor.

You owe me a reasonable explanation, or don’t blame me for being rude.”

“An explanation?

Do you even deserve one?

What are you?

And don’t point your finger at me, I fear I won’t be able to contain myself from sending you off to the afterlife.

Do you believe that?”

Lu Tianxing glanced at Zhao Lin, swatted away his hand, and, with a cold laugh, turned and walked toward the door.

Having snapped back to reality, Bai Zhiqing stood up and said, “Lu Tianxing, how can you speak to Senior like that?

Even if what he said wasn’t right, you can’t talk like this.”

Lu Tianxing stood still, sighed deeply, and turned around to look at Bai Zhiqing with an indifferent tone, “How should I talk, then?

Should I just watch as someone blatantly insults our soldiers?

Or do you want to watch your wife being slowly manipulated?

Let me tell you, Lu Tianxing can’t do that.

Bai Zhiqing, if you think I’m wrong, then we can go get a divorce this afternoon.

Out of sight, out of mind.”

Bai Zhiqing was stunned, utterly stunned.

She could never have anticipated that Lu Tianxing would say such things.

The cold detachment in his eyes sent a chill through her heart, as if from that moment on, she and Lu Tianxing were from two different worlds, never to return to the happy, playful times when Tianxing would tease her just to see her smile.

As Zhao Lin witnessed this scene, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

The guy had finally lost his cool—his plan was nearing its fruition.

Despite his inner joy, Zhao Lin’s face exhibited a look of profound sorrow, his eyes reddening, and his fists clenched tightly as if truly enraged by Lu Tianxing’s words.

Lu Tianxing gave Bai Zhiqing a deep look, closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his calm had returned.

He looked at Zhao Lin, his tone unabashedly mocking, “Senior Zhao, don’t bother feigning such anger.

It only makes me feel disgusted, you know?

You should be thankful that I’m not as irritable as I used to be; otherwise, you wouldn’t be standing here anymore.”

“What did you say?”

Anger began to flare in Zhao Lin’s eyes.

Unfazed, Lu Tianxing sneered, “You don’t understand what the battlefield is, nor do you understand what it means to be a soldier because you lack even a hint of a soldier’s air.

Do you know that?

Although you’re pretending very well, anyone with a bit of discernment can see that you’re a fake.”

“So Mr.

Lu, have you ever served?

Were you a duty soldier?” Zhao Lin said with disdain.

Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, his tone steady and untroubled, “You’re still not convinced when I say you’re not a soldier?

Then let me ask you, do you know how many graves there are on the southwestern frontier?

Do you know how many soldiers have died since the establishment of the southwestern border defense?

Do you know how many decorated soldiers willingly become ordinary citizens after their discharge?

Do you know any of this?”

“I….”

Zhao Lin opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say, as he was indeed ignorant of these things; everything he had told Bai Zhiqing was merely a product of his own imagination.

Upon seeing the change in Zhao Lin’s expression, Bai Zhiqing, with her sharp intelligence, instantly grasped the situation, and her face turned icy.

“You don’t know, do you!”

A mocking smile flashed across Lu Tianxing’s face, “I’ll tell you now.

There have been two thousand seven hundred and sixty-one soldiers who died in battle in the Southwestern Border Defense Region.

There are one thousand three hundred and thirty-two decorated soldiers who have retired, and there are a total of seven hundred and ninety-six tombstones.

Do you know why there are only so few?

Because some of them can’t even be found, their bones utterly lost.

Yet, they have died without regrets, willingly remaining unnamed heroes.

This is what soldiers are, home and country-defending soldiers.

Not someone like you, who fishes for fame under the guise of a soldier and uses it to chase girls.”

“In my eyes, you’re just trash, nothing but trash using the guise of a soldier to chase girls.

Don’t freaking look at me with that expression; I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop myself from slaughtering you.”

Bai Zhiqing was stunned.

These numbers were significant, and she had never imagined that so many stories could unfold in such a remote place.

She had thought soldiers were like what television portrayed, with strong camaraderie and defending their country.

She had never anticipated such cruelty that didn’t even leave a name behind.

And Zhao Lin, who had just been so arrogant, felt a chill down his spine when he saw Lu Tianxing’s bloodshot eyes, and he forced down the fear in his heart as he said, “You…

you’re lying.

Who…

who knows if what you’re saying is true.”
