When Ye Fei and Liu Junyi returned to the stronghold, it was already quite late. Liu Junyi went straight back to her own room.
Although she had already taken the Recovery Pill, the part of her that had just been explored still felt a bit swollen.
In this state, it was naturally impossible for her to attend any meeting.
Ye Fei went to the place where Zhang Qiang and other high-ranking officers gathered and asked, "Uncle Zhang, how’s the situation? Has anything gone wrong after we left?"
"Of course not. Everything went very smoothly." Zhang Qiang said with a bitter smile.
"I say, Ye Fei, you underestimate us too much, don’t you? Although we are not as powerful as you, we are still special forces elites. If we can’t even handle the aftermath properly, we might as well commit mass suicide."
Seeing that several other captains also had bitter smiles on their faces, Ye Fei knew that his words might have hurt their self-esteem, so he quickly said with a smile, "What are you talking about, Uncle Zhang? How could I mean that? I was just asking casually."
When they saw Ye Fei say that, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Although they all admired Ye Fei and Liu Junyi very much, as special forces elites, they didn’t want anyone to underestimate them. Moreover, after this operation, they had already had the idea of following the two of them, so Ye Fei’s opinion was very important to them.
"By the way, how was it on your side? Did you encounter any resistance in their lair? Why didn’t Captain Liu call us for a meeting?" The captain from the Northeast asked three questions in a row.
Obviously, he was also very concerned about the trip of Ye Fei and Liu Junyi.
Ye Fei said with a slight smile, "Nothing special. Almost all of their people had gone out, and only one master was left in the lair. My aunt fought with him, and now she’s a bit tired, so she went back to rest first."
He thought to himself, I’m not lying to you. She did fight with the enemy’s master, and she is indeed a bit tired now.
"That’s good." Another battalion commander nodded and said, "Then we’ll report the results of this battle to the headquarters right away. Hehe, let that guy behind the scenes feel frustrated too!"
"Okay." Ye Fei agreed and added, "Tell the headquarters that I have explored the enemy’s lair, and there’s nothing special. Just let them send someone to take over directly.
This is also a border area, and having a base here is quite good.
And everything in that lair is ready-made, and it can definitely accommodate ten thousand people without any problem!"
Ye Fei’s words made the captains even more excited. After nodding in agreement, they all went to call the headquarters to report. Anyway, since the battle was over, they didn’t need to bother Liu Junyi with such small things as reporting work.
After the battalion commanders left, Zhang Qiang came close to Ye Fei’s ear mysteriously and said, "Ye Fei, congratulations. You might soon be the nephew of a lieutenant general."
"No way?"
Ye Fei was stunned. Judging from what Zhang Qiang said, there was a possibility that Liu Junyi could be promoted further, but wasn’t that too incredible?
After all, it was relatively easy to be promoted to major general as long as one had some achievements, and even many actors in the military had reached that level.
But if she was to be promoted further, that would mean she would enter the core of the military. It was impossible for Liu Junyi to achieve that so quickly, right?
And with "that person" suppressing her from above, it would be even more difficult.
Zhang Qiang, however, said with a smile, "Why not? Don’t look at the fact that we only eliminated a small number of enemies this time. But our contribution is no less than winning a major battle during wartime. Moreover, with the support of all the special forces in the whole Dragon Kingdom, even ’that person’ wouldn’t dare to say anything openly."
"I hope so." Ye Fei responded indifferently.
Although he was shocked by this possibility, he didn’t take it too seriously.
Even if Liu Junyi was promoted further, even to the highest rank, what would it matter?
There would still be people above her who could control her, and his goal was far more than that.
What he wanted was to say something, and no one in the whole world would dare to object.
It had to be said that Ye Fei’s ambition had reached an unimaginable level, but he had his reasons for doing so.
Since he had this relationship with Ye Yunqi, Liu Junyi and the others, he definitely couldn’t let them go in his life.
And it wasn’t Ye Fei’s style to let his women live in secrecy.
So he had to work hard to achieve this. What about ’power cannot suppress justice’?
That was nonsense. As long as he had the power that the whole world wouldn’t dare to oppose, even if he did something more outrageous, no one would dare to say anything, and Ye Yunqi and the others wouldn’t have to worry about others gossiping as they did now.
However, although he had such thoughts, Ye Fei was not an arrogant person. He was very clear that he was still far from that step and needed more efforts in the future. So he didn’t even tell Liu Junyi about his ambition.
Among all the people, probably only the bald guys could vaguely guess something, but they were completely loyal to him, and Ye Fei didn’t have to worry about any problems.

Seeing that Ye Fei didn’t show the excited expression he had expected, Zhang Qiang couldn’t help feeling a bit helpless.
This guy really had a big heart.
When he thought of this possibility, he, as a subordinate, was so excited, but as Liu Junyi’s nephew, he didn’t seem excited at all. His psychological quality was too good, right?
After bidding farewell to Zhang Qiang, Ye Fei strolled around the yard casually. Now that everything was over, the team members no longer had the tension they had before. At this time, they were sitting in the yard in twos and threes.
Some were chatting, and some were playing poker, shouting and making a lot of noise, making this place look more like a construction site than a military camp.
Declining the invitations from several groups of "poker enthusiasts," Ye Fei walked towards Liu Junyi’s room, wanting to have a chat with her. But when he was halfway there, a somewhat lonely and beautiful figure caught his attention.
That figure was Wei Qing. At this moment, she didn’t have the demeanor of that valiant goddess marksman at all. She was sitting alone in a corner by the wall, with her head down, not knowing what she was thinking, and her expression was a bit lost.
Seeing Wei Qing like this, Ye Fei couldn’t help feeling a bit distressed and self-reproachful. He had been so affectionate with Liu Junyi these days that he had neglected her. It was really inappropriate.
So he walked up to her in big strides and sat down, asking, "Sister Qing, what’s wrong with you?"
Seeing that it was Ye Fei, Wei Qing showed a smile on her face and shook her head gently. "Nothing."
But Ye Fei stared at her eyes and continued to ask, "Really nothing? Can’t you even tell me if you have something on your mind?"
Wei Qing blushed slightly. How could she not sense the intimate feeling in Ye Fei’s words? This feeling warmed her heart. She looked at Ye Fei for a while and then answered irrelevantly, "The mission is over. Are we going to part ways tomorrow?"
"Yes." Ye Fei also sighed gently.
"Although there were some unsatisfactory aspects this time, it was still a rare experience after all. It’s really uncomfortable to part suddenly."
"Then, will we have a chance to meet again?" Wei Qing asked suddenly, still staring at Ye Fei, but her face had already turned quite red.
Only then did Ye Fei realize that her lost expression was because of this. His heart couldn’t help but tremble, and his gaze at Wei Qing changed from calm to affectionate, and he said, "As long as we want, there will definitely be a chance."
Wei Qing felt a bit embarrassed under Ye Fei’s gaze. She lowered her head slightly and took out a piece of paper from her coat pocket, saying, "This is the phone number of my dormitory. If you have anything, just call me."
After saying that, without waiting for Ye Fei’s reply, she stood up and quickly ran to her dormitory in the stronghold.
Looking at Wei Qing’s charming back, Ye Fei showed a smile on his face.
