Chapter 2643: Chapter 2636: Can’t Escape Your Eyes
What’s crucial is, why did he remove this part?
"What are you all talking about? Captain Uncle? Dad? I can’t understand, could you explain it more clearly?" Ning Chenyang pretended not to understand or know, trying to avoid a scolding.
But, he didn’t notice his father Qin Jian’s face growing increasingly grim.
"It’s nothing, nothing." Captain Zhang waved his hand repeatedly. "Kid, after the shooting practice at the range yesterday, some parts went missing from the gun. Have you seen them?"
"What parts? Captain Uncle, are you suspecting that I took them?" Ning Chenyang looked at Captain Zhang with innocent eyes.
"Well... just tell Uncle whether you took them or not?" Captain Zhang took the opportunity to ask.
"No!" Ning Chenyang shook his head, denying it.
Captain Zhang sighed, realizing he must have suspected the wrong person.
"You go back first. Leave this matter to me, and I will get to the bottom of it!" Qin Jian already had a grasp of the situation, and he didn’t believe Ning Chenyang’s words at all.
However, considering his son’s little pride, Qin Jian did not expose Ning Chenyang publicly before the matter was clarified.
"Yes, Commander!"
Ning Chenyang watched Captain Zhang leave, hearing Qin Jian’s low and rich voice echo beside him, "Chenyang, come back to the office with me."
Seeing Qin Jian’s serious expression, Ning Chenyang knew that his father had already figured out something, and the time ahead might not be easy.
As expected.
Qin Jian took Ning Chenyang back to the office, closed the door, and looked down at his son.
His gaze was as sharp as a hawk’s, almost penetrating Ning Chenyang’s eyes to see into his heart.
Ning Chenyang didn’t dare to meet his father’s eyes and silently looked away.
From this tiny gesture, Qin Jian knew that Ning Chenyang had something to hide.
"You are my son; nobody knows you better than I do! Hand over the things and explain yourself clearly!" Qin Jian said in a deep voice.
"Dad, you’re wronging me!" Before, Ning Chenyang might have been hopeful, but now he couldn’t be. Since childhood, his father had been his role model and hero, someone he both admired and slightly feared.
Now Qin Jian’s expression was darker than a pot’s bottom, and Ning Chenyang felt a drum beating in his heart.
"Ning Chenyang! You can’t lie! Every time you lie, your blink rate is far higher than usual!" Qin Jian pointed out Ning Chenyang’s problem in one go, "You took the parts, that was already a big mistake! But instead of correcting it, you lied again to cover up your previous lie! This shocks and angers me greatly!"
"I knew... I couldn’t escape your eyes." In front of Qin Jian, all of Ning Chenyang’s little schemes were seen through clearly, leaving him nowhere to hide.
"So you’re admitting it!" Qin Jian took a deep breath, his gaze deep and pressing on Ning Chenyang’s brow.
"Yes." Ning Chenyang nodded, reached into his pocket, and took out the parts he had removed, "They’re all here! I’m giving them back to you!"
Qin Jian took the items Ning Chenyang handed over, looked them over a few times, then asked, "Why did you do it? Give me a reason!"
"I wanted to assemble a gun myself! So..." Ning Chenyang stammered.
Qin Jian gasped, "You’re really something! Who gave you such confidence? You’re truly audacious! Do you know how many more parts you need to assemble a rifle?"
