Chapter 759 Free Man

Chapter 759 Free Man

??Zhai Yanjun just came out of the company commander's office after receiving his next assignment and didn't look very good. He once again looked at the orders and sighed heavily. Oh, he didn't like this mission! He didn't like it at all!

??"Captain!" 

??Zhai Yanjun gave a nod to the soldier who saluted and walked towards the canteen. 

??"Captain, why do you look so down? What did the commander say?" asked one of the soldiers from his squadron.

??"We have a new mission," he told the person who asked as he took a seat.

??"What is it to make you look like you lost your soul?" the soldier whose name was Xie Sen joked with his captain.

??"There is a crew planning to make a movie based on military cadets," told Zhai Yanjun. "And they want to portray the real atmosphere. That's why for the next three months they'd be sending actors to our training base for training." He gritted out these words hatefully. "As luck would have it, our squad is chosen for the honor of training those weak little actors."

??Xie Sen's smile froze and he lost his playful expression. His expression looked grave right now. "Really? How did they even get the permission for it?"

??"First, the producer has a strong backing. Second, the military wants to take this chance for promotion. After all, we all can see how the consignment rate is dropping each year."

??"Tsk. Young people have no passion to serve the country," lamented Xie Sen.

??"Says the guy who was thrown into the military by his family to turn him into a human."

??Xie Sen scratched his nose and lowered his head. He couldn't argue with his captain about that. He obviously didn't forget how he ended up in the military in the first place. But now, he knew he belonged here. 

??"Captain, is there gonna be girls in the crew?" he asked with bright eyes.

??"Yes," answered Zhai Yanjun feeling even worse at that. He could still handle those male actors, what was he supposed to do with those delicate actresses who had eyes on their foreheads? He was really having a headache because of this matter.

??"Hehehe... I think we'll have fun," said Xie Sen. "At least, they'd a feast for the eyes."

??Zhai Yanjun smacked his head, "If you dared cause trouble for me, see how I'll fix you!"

??Xie Sen rubbed his head, "I don't dare do it, Captain. I said feast for the eyes. No other intention."

??Zhai Yanjun sneered as he thought, 'Let's see if I give you enough time to even look at anything.'

??"Captain, you have a food delivery."

??Zhai Yanjun looked at the insulated food box and his mood brightened up immediately. He opened the box and looked at the delicious food in front of him. Oh, just the smell of the homemade food was different and more tempting than the food in the canteen. Although the food at the canteen wasn't all that bad. 

??"Wow! Captain, you're making people envious. I'm drooling!"

??"Captain, are you sure it's not from your girlfriend?"

??"Captain said it before, it's from his Ayi!"

??"Why don't I have an Ayi like that? Mine is always wondering if I can help her son get a job."

??"Hahaha! Be happy, Old Lao! At least your Ayi thinks you're useful. Mine doesn't even talk to me."

??"Hey! I have it the worst. I don't even have an Ayi!"

??"Hahahaha!"

??"Go away!" Zhai Yanjun shooed away the group of people who gathered around his mouth watering food. He didn't want these wolves to stare at him while he ate. They always ruined his appetite. Maybe he had been too nice to them lately and that's why they even dared to joke around with him and act so unruly.

??"So stingy!" someone muttered in the crowd.

??"Do you want to run around the ground?"

??"No, Sir!"

??"Then get back to your seats!" Zhai Yanjun's roaring voice rang out making them all run back to their seats. They didn't dare to even breathe loudly in fear of provoking him.

??Zhai Yanjun finally found some peace and started eating his meal happily. Even though he told his aunt she didn't have to send these meals to him, she still found time to send these to him every other day. Of course, he couldn't complain about it. After all, it made him feel loved. And he was getting addicted to this feeling.

??*Ring!*

??Zhai Yanjun took out his phone and frowned at the caller id. He accepted the call, "Hello, dad! You're looking for me?"

??"It's not me who is looking for you," came the reply from Zhai Kuijun. 

??"Indeed, it'd be weird if you're looking for me for something," replied Zhai Yanjun. "Then what's up? You didn't call me to ask about my health, right?"

??"Are you joking with your father now?" asked Zhai Kuijun.

??"Can't I?" retorted Zhai Yanjun.

??"Well, you can," said Zhai Kuijun. "But it's not the time for that."

??"What's up?" asked Zhai Yanjun seriously. He could instinctively feel that his father called him for a reason. 

??"It seems you'll have to make a trip back home," said Zhai Kuijun.

??"Today?" 

??"It'd be better if it's today," replied Zhai Kuijun. "I don't think I'd be able to take the pressure if you didn't come today."

??"Oh?" Zhai Yanjun raised his brow in surprise. "Dad, why don't you speak clearly?"

??Zhai Kuijun sighed, "It's your maternal grandparents."

??"Huh?"

??"Yeah, your maternal grandparents are here," replied Zhai Kuijun. His voice lowered as if he was telling a secret as he said, "Come soon. Your maternal grandfather has been glaring at me as if I'm his biggest enemy. And I can't do anything about it."

??"Dad, are you feeling guilty for divorcing mom?" asked Zhai Yanjun.

??"No way!" replied Zhai Kuijun. "I just respect him so I can't say anything. I'm willing to take the blame if he wants to blame me even though he and I both know it's not my fault. But I'm not willing to feel guilty for what I did. I have no regrets. I am a free man. How can I have any regrets now?"

??Zhai Yanjun didn't think his father got so amusing after he became a 'free man'.
