The Surrogate Bride of the Colonel He

C103 – Beating up

The soldiers’ expressions were filled with admiration as they hurriedly approached Yan Chengyu. Only Ann Yan understood that a man as unpredictable as Yan Chengyu always had a devious plan in mind, and he regarded him with contempt.

Yan Chengyu smiled. So, you couldn’t keep this hidden from the captain, huh? But if he lacked even this iota of intelligence, it would have been quite dull!

Yan Chengyu pondered this as he smirked at Ann Yan, his twisted grin eliciting a wave of revulsion.

Ann Yan’s frown deepened. He truly loathed the way Yan Chengyu was scrutinizing him now. However, Yan Chengyu hadn’t actually done anything to warrant disciplining him, so even if he wanted to reprimand Yan Chengyu, he couldn’t find a valid reason.

Or perhaps it was because he felt like prey ensnared in a trap, with Yan Chengyu, the predator, neither rushing nor hesitating, all while observing his reactions. This infuriated Wu Tie. After all, what could he do if he couldn’t outmaneuver him? Plus, he had his wits about him; he wouldn’t fall for Yan Chengyu’s schemes.

Getting angry again? This was becoming more and more entertaining. If he didn’t get infuriated, Yan Chengyu might just take a closer look to see if it was as intriguing as he thought.

No one paid attention to Yan Chengyu’s inclinations. He was merely toying with Ann Yan in his mind, and he was determined to do so no matter what.

With these thoughts in mind, Yan Chengyu remarked to his teammates, “Why don’t you just find a ‘significant other’ within the team to resolve the issue? Like Captain An Yan and me—you know how we settled our disagreements.” Finally, he slyly directed his words at the dark-faced Ann Yan, “What’s your take, Captain An Yan?” There was an underlying message in those pointed words!

Ann Yan’s face shifted between red and green. He was genuinely infuriated because Yan Chengyu’s words insinuated a connection between them. He was about to lash out at Yan Chengyu in anger when suddenly, the nearby soldiers erupted in chatter.

“Just like Captain An Yan and me? What does that mean?”

“Wait, does this imply we’re already a couple?”

“Unbelievable! When did this happen? Wasn’t that just a joke?”

“Could it be that they’re secretly dating?”

“Is this for real?”

As they spoke, the soldiers’ attention turned toward Yan Chengyu and Ann Yan. However, Yan Chengyu simply maintained his usual smile, offering no explanation.

Ann Yan’s anger flared as he grabbed Yan Chengyu’s shirt, his eyes growing icy and menacing as he demanded, “What are you implying?” It seemed like he was ready to confront Yan Chengyu physically.

What was this young troublemaker up to? Was he finding amusement in messing with me?

Ouch! His frustration was genuinely rising. Strangely, Yan Chengyu, being held aloft, appeared to be in good spirits. His grin grew even wider, irritating Ann Yan to the point where he wanted to throw a punch. However, his position and status prevented him from doing so. All he could do was shoot Yan Chengyu a cold, warning glare, urging him to exercise some restraint.

Yet, in response to Ann Yan’s warning, Yan Chengyu suddenly flashed a smile and leaned in to whisper in Ann Yan’s ear, “Please, Captain An Yan, don’t toy with me. If you say the word, I’ll cease.” Finally, he chuckled, his lips playfully brushing Ann Yan’s earlobe.

Ann Yan was taken aback and swiftly took a step back. Simultaneously, he felt that Yan Chengyu had underestimated him. Ann Yan, known for his remarkable patience, threw a punch and reprimanded, “You punk, don’t assume that just because I haven’t acted, I’m a pushover.” With that, he grasped Yan Chengyu’s collar, pulled him closer, and delivered an intense glare.

Nonetheless, Yan Chengyu, now at the receiving end of a beating, adjusted his collar and maintained his usual smile. “That really stings!”

Ye Zichen, nonchalantly licking the traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, smiled mysteriously. For some reason, he found himself grinning, even though he couldn’t sense any murderous intent from Ann Yan. It was unclear what kind of scheme he had in store for Ann Yan.
