Chapter 367 Not Even as Good as a Woman
If only one person praises, it might be flattery.
But when everyone praises, then it really might be true.
In this world, could there really be such an incredible woman?
In his mind, the image of the woman who had saved him surfaced once again.
She had killed a giant python, could heal injuries, and was also beautiful.
She was the most wonderful woman he had ever seen.
He wondered if he would ever have the chance to see her again in this lifetime.
Realizing his mind had wandered, Fang Lilin snapped back to attention.
His expression remained serious, making it hard to discern his thoughts.
"Xia Weibao is just a celebrity, not a soldier. This mission is perilous, and she is not suitable for it."
This mission involved live ammunition and was fraught with danger.
It wasn’t like shooting a TV show.
Even if Xia Weibao knew how to fight, what did it matter? A woman, never having witnessed such bloody scenes, could be frightened to death at the sight.
Moreover, if something went wrong, how could they explain it?
"Commander, I believe Xia Weibao is the most suitable choice. She is a public figure, well recognized by many, and Du Yin would definitely never suspect she is one of our operatives.
Gathering intelligence would be more convenient.
Furthermore, a woman’s frailty can easily confound the enemy and lower their guard when it comes to shooting.
As for her safety, I will accompany her throughout and protect her."
Though he spoke of protection, his thoughts harbored some malice.
Once they reached the venomous den, he planned to abandon Xia Weibao and escape on his own.
By exposing Xia Weibao’s identity and using the hands of the venomous, he didn’t believe he couldn’t kill that woman!
Not only had she ruined his brother but also his reputation; he would see how he’d deal with her!
Fang Lilin still disagreed; soldiers have their principles.
And their duty was to protect the people; how could they knowingly send a vulnerable woman into danger!
"Another candidate."
His tone left no room for discussion, and Jiang Liang became anxious.
If he couldn’t kill Xia Weibao this time, there wouldn’t be such a good opportunity again.
"Commander, there truly is no better fit than Xia Weibao in our military camp."
"Commander Jiang, are you telling me that in such a large military camp, there’s no one who can surpass a woman?"
Regardless of what Jiang Liang thought, the likes of Meng Hai, Zhao Wenhe, and Nanbei, who had been defeated by Xia Weibao, were already blushing with shame.
Indeed, in such a large military camp, no one could really surpass Xia Weibao...
Jiang Liang was intimidated by Fang Lilin’s authority, and a bead of cold sweat formed on his forehead.
He naturally couldn’t admit such a thing; overseeing a military camp that couldn’t compare to a woman would make him appear incompetent in Fang Lilin’s eyes.
Forget about a promotion, a demotion was more likely.
"Replying to the commander, our military camp is full of talents, naturally incomparable to Xia Weibao. It’s just that soldiers exude an unmistakable integrity, making them easy to recognize.
Xia Weibao is adept at hiding her identity, and I can pose as her lover, which will definitely not raise suspicion.
I guarantee I will ensure her safety.
And there’s no question about her capabilities; if you doubt them, you can ask others."
The other soldiers nodded; Xia Weibao’s skills were indeed formidable.
However, letting her participate in a mission, and such a dangerous one at that, seemed hardly appropriate.
What if she got scared?
Girls are timid, being able to fight doesn’t mean she isn’t afraid.
Meng Hai stepped forward and saluted, "Reporting to the commander, I believe it’s necessary to ask for Miss Xia’s opinon on this matter."
He couldn’t let his future master, the goddess, take such a risk.
As time was running out and Du Yin was about to escape,
Fang Lilin could only nod and asked someone to call Xia Weibao in.
Two minutes later, the office door opened and Xia Weibao, dressed in military uniform, entered...
