She didn’t mishear, neither was he an hallucination; he was indeed right by her side!
The physical touch made Ye Jian smile unconsciously, a ball of light scattered in the depths of her obsidian pupils, making those chilly black pupils to be filled with light; even the edge on her face had softened a lot.
With her hand still caressing his face, Ye Jian pushed down the delight in her heart and maintained a calmness that one should have in the battlefield as she informed her comrades, “It’s Q King; he’s right by my side.”
……
There was only radio silence. Evidently, everyone was stunned.
Q King?
Both teams had different missions and had encountered each other on the same island?
“All of the firepower is on Blue Bird. Pigeon, Long Hawk, you guys bring our engineers and retreat as soon as possible, leave Blue Bird and co.’s exit to me.”
While his comrades were still in shock, Xia Jinyuan’s resonant voice reached everyone’s ears through the earpiece, “Crane, Roadrunner, stay your ground, for now, wait till Blue Bird and I have finished. Sniping, then cover us.”
“Sir, yes, sir!”
“Sir, yes, sir!”
The captain has arrived, even if both teams had different missions, now that they were in the same spot, they could still follow his orders.
Also, with him fighting alongside Blue Bird, they don’t need to worry about Blue Bird’s safety any longer.
Ye Jian once again put on her earpiece; her bright, black pupils were filled with thick delight as she stared unblinkingly at the handsome face an arm-length away.
Even if she could only see the outline of the handsome face, Ye Jian still stared at him without averting her gaze.
His face had already imprinted itself into her heart, even if she could only see his outline, in her heart, in her eyes, his handsome face was so vivid that she could even see his eyelashes.
No wonder she didn’t sense any danger just now; it turns out Captain Xia was the one hiding.
In that case, that meant that he had been observing for quite a while and knew that she was around, yet didn’t know that it was her, huh?
Ye Jian very lightly raised her brows and showed an intrigued smile,… knew she was there but didn’t know it was her, Captain Xia ah Captain Xia seems like I’ll have to have a heart-to-heart talk with you.
The Major had no idea that his girlfriend was about to have a talk with him, seeing that she was staring at him, his eyes flickered as he chuckled: “Cutie, there’s no way I can let you stare and touch to your heart’s content with bullets raining down at us, wait till we get back, then I’ll let you stare and touch properly.”
If he hadn’t mentioned the word ‘touch,’ then that would have been a normal sentence; however, with the inclusion of the word ‘touch,’ it suddenly turned naughty.
Though it might sound naughty, the light in his pupils was extremely serious, he had just used another way to remind Ye Jian about their current situation.
An affectionate gaze wasn’t appropriate for a place like this.
Ye Jian heard the sternness from his voice and immediately pulled back her gaze.
When the delight in her eyes had returned into her heart, the cold edge returned onto her face once again.
She leaned and pointed at the crooked tree; she asked him, “Sniping position, what do you think?”
It was a good spot and had a wide view from here, and if looked from the front, it was blocked off by a rock and would become a shooting blindspot. Meanwhile, below it was a slope; the crooked tree that grew out from the stone cracks was indeed a good sniping spot.
His little fox could always find the best sniping position quickly, like a hunter’s ability at quickly tracking prey.
An ability like this was also a talent and would allow her to find survival in adversities.
Without the help of night-vision equipment, Xia Jinyuan was in charge of firing distraction shots; wherever Ye Jian shoots at, he’ll shoot there, and it was about time for them to act.
An assault rifle was not a sniper rifle; although Ye Jian said she would be sniping, it was just shooting one bullet and immediately retreating.
After all, their enemy had submachine guns in their hands and also kept up a high rate of fire; if she didn’t retreat in time, she would very likely turn into a live target.
