Chapter 243 Luo Wen Helps in Times of Need
"009 and Lu Shaoang are both outstanding graduates of the Yodon Military Academy, and they are also the main contributors to that incident. In view of their outstanding contributions to the country, they are now applying for the position of marshal." Captain Zhou observed the expressions of several marshals and continued:
"Everyone is now free to express their opinions."
Except for two older marshals who disagreed, everyone else supported it.
But the final decision lies in the hands of the four most powerful marshals, and now two of them agree and two are against.
The meeting room fell silent again. The secretary was only there to make sure everything was fair and could not comment.
Captain Li looked at Captain Zhou anxiously. This might be their last chance. They originally thought that as long as Xu Qiao was not there, there wouldn't be too many obstacles, but they underestimated human nature.
"It's not necessarily a good thing for a country to have too many marshals. This result is the best." The opposing marshal said coldly.
"Mr. Chen..." another marshal said dissatisfiedly, "Our votes are tied now, no one can make a conclusion without authorization. Besides, I don't think it's a good thing to have too much power concentrated! Times are changing, and we should also learn to tolerate young people and absorb fresh blood!"
"What do you mean?" Old Chen said angrily, "I'm not too old to work, why should I add fresh blood? Isn't this pure nonsense..."
"Everyone, excuse me."
Luo Wen suddenly appeared in the conference room and interrupted Lao Chen.
Lu Shaoang: "Instructor Luo?"
"Who are you?" Mr. Chen didn't like the person who suddenly appeared.
Luo Wen nodded slightly towards Su Jinyi and Lu Shaoang, and showed his Yodon teacher work badge, "I am a teacher sent by the Yodon Military Academy, Luo Wen."
When Mr. Chen heard that it was a teacher from the Jotun Military Academy, his attitude immediately changed, "The Jotun teacher came without even saying hello in advance so that we could come and greet him..."
"I have something else to do. I'll leave right after this." Luo Wen interrupted Mr. Chen without giving him any face.
Mr. Chen didn't dare to get angry and could only look at him awkwardly.
"If I'm not in the wrong place, you are now electing a marshal." Luo Wen looked around and took in their reactions.
"Is it right?"
Captain Zhou and Captain Li looked at each other and saw hope in each other's eyes.
Captain Zhou: “That’s right.”
Luo Wen nodded, took out a document from his briefcase and placed it on the conference table.
Everyone looked at him in confusion.
"This is the recommendation letter from the principal of the Yoton Military Academy. I will be responsible for the pick-up and drop-off. I hope I am not too late."
"What...what?" Chen Lao felt his mind go blank. How could the principal of the Jotun Military Academy write a recommendation letter for someone else? This was the first time he had seen this.
Captain Zhou looked at Luo Wen deeply. The recommendation letter sent at this time could only be related to the election.
Captain Zhou opened the envelope in front of everyone and felt relieved only after seeing the contents.
"It's a letter of recommendation from Su Jinyi and Lu Shaoang, supporting them to become marshals."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen was struck by lightning and snatched the envelope from Captain Zhou in disbelief.
Even if Chen Lao saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't believe the fact in front of him. He spent half his life climbing to this position, and now he was about to be replaced by two young people.
Luo Wen noticed his reaction and said, "My Lord Marshal, you won't even give the Jotun Military Academy a bit of face, right?"
"I..." Old Chen felt as if he had aged ten years in an instant, and resigned himself to his fate: "I agree."
Captain Zhou: "Does anyone else have any comments?"
"No!" Captain Li took the lead excitedly.
"No."
"No……"
If China's political power is in the hands of a very small number of people for too long, it is easy for them to forget their original intentions. Only by properly replenishing fresh blood can it maintain its smooth operation.
Lu Shaoang looked at Su Jinyi, their eyes intertwined, and they smiled knowingly at each other.
After the meeting, Mr. Chen hurried away, and Captain Li put his arm on Captain Zhou's shoulders. "We won!"
"Well, we should have won." Captain Zhou said with relief.
Luo Wen observed Su Jinyi calmly, and only felt relieved after he was sure that there was nothing serious.
"Have you recovered?"
"Well, I have recovered."
"I have to thank Instructor Luo for this." Lu Shaoang said gratefully.
Luo Wen rarely praised: "This is what I should do. I see your efforts."
Luo Wen curled his lips: "But, I have a small request."
Su Jin had a feeling that this was not a good thing, so she asked tentatively, "You're not going to ask us to risk our lives, are you?"
Luo Wen pretended to be reasonable and said, "That seems to be correct."
Su Jinyi: ...
"The academy would like to invite you two to be instructors. You don't have to be full-time. Just sign up and go when you are free."
"Instructor Luo..." Su Jin said with a headache: "Is there any room for negotiation?"
Luo Wen smiled at her and said, "Congratulations in advance on your successful employment."
Lu Shaoang: ...
Even if the two wanted to refuse, the Chinese military would agree on their behalf. Moreover, thanks to the help of the academy, the two had no choice but to agree.
Luo Wen had something else to do, so he left first.
Lu Shaoang suddenly received a text message on his mobile phone.
[Boss, I am reliable, right? ]
[Please praise me~]
Lu Shaoang curled his lips slightly and responded to the other person's expression of touching his head.
As soon as he looked up, he met Su Jinyi's gaze, "What are you laughing at?"
Lu Shaoang touched his nose guiltily, "Nothing... nothing."
"Lu Shaoang, do you know you can't lie?"
Lu Shaoang knew he couldn't hide it from her, so he handed the phone to her.
"I guessed it a long time ago." Su Jin didn't react much after taking a look.
Before I even walked out of the military headquarters gate, I heard the noise outside.
"You are wrongly accusing my grandfather! I am going to sue you. Why did you arrest my grandfather? He is a general, you know what a general is? If you wrongly accuse him, you will lose your head!"
Xu Yanxi lost all her usual spoiled self and pulled the guard and yelled.
Seeing Su Jinyi and Lu Shaoang coming out, she wanted to rush over, but was held down by someone.
"Su Jinyi! Did you do this? Did you?" She screamed hysterically, "You will be punished for slandering my grandfather, you know that!"
Lu Shaoang frowned slightly and pulled Su Jinyi behind him to prevent Xu Yanxi from losing control of her emotions and hurting her.
"This has nothing to do with Yi Yi. Xu Qiao has to take the responsibility for what he did. It won't help no matter who comes."
Xu Yanxi then looked at Lu Shaoang, as if she had suddenly realized something. "Commander Lu, I won't marry you anymore. I won't force you anymore. Please let my grandfather go, okay?"
Xu Yanxi was about to kneel down after saying this. Xu Qiao was her idol since she was a child. She was taught from an early age to be an upright person. How could she possibly engage in corruption and accept bribes!
If I agree not to marry Lu Shaoang, will grandpa come back?
"Xu Yanxi! What are you doing!?"
When Xu Beizhou found out that she ran out of the house, the first person he thought of was Lu Shaoang. He didn't expect to see Xu Yanxi kneeling down as soon as he got off the car!
Xu Beizhou immediately held her and yelled: "Xu Yanxi, do you know what you are doing!"
"Brother..." She saw all of Xu Beizhou's grievances burst out, "I don't want to marry Lu Shaoang, please let grandpa come back..."
