Lu Xingzhi dragged Chen Feibai all the way downstairs, loosening his hold only when they had reached the ground floor. He gently pushed Chen Feibai away, with the latter glaring at him.
"What's with you, Sergeant Lu, you're so imposing! I'm just a messenger, why did you make a move against a new recruit! Such strength, so impressive!" Chen Feibai adjusted his collar as he said sarcastically, his face an annoyed expression.
"You? A messenger?" Lu Xingzhi sneered coldly, he would not believe Chen Feibai's words unless his brain had been damaged irreparably by a cannon.
"How many others in the entire platoon can you order around, Master Chen? Even if the Supreme Commander has given you a command, you think I'd believe you? Believe that the Supreme Commander chose you to relay a message to me?" Chen Feibai's admission to the military was basically a thorn in everyone's side. He was the third generation of military members in his family, and his connections were excellent. It was simply a disaster for the entire army when he enlisted, one that nobody was able to avoid.
Although in the end he was arranged to be under Lu Xingzhi, he was indifferent and could not be bothered about Chen Feibai, who relied on connections to go through life.
Lu Xingzhi was also well aware that people like Chen Feibai would not stay long in the army, he would at most last about two to three years. The Chen family would naturally arrange for Chen Feibai to transfer out of the army after making arrangements for a bright future for him.
Seeing that Chen Feibai was giving him a look that was normally reserved for enemies, Lu Xingzhi felt his heart waver a little.
"Chen Feibai, I can tolerate your presence in the army." Lu Xingzhi said coldly, his eyes hardening, "In the platoon, you can tease whoever you want, and if something happens, you're on your own, I won't care. However, I'm warning you, Jiang Yao is my wife. If you dare to do anything untoward toward her, I have my own ways to ensure that you will not be able to stay in this platoon!"
