Chapter 599: Chapter 599: Rather to Die

Qi Taiguo put down the phone, sitting with a gloomy expression on his face. Suddenly, he clenched his fist and violently slammed it onto the table. The pen bounced and rolled off onto the floor.

Utterly detestable!

The call had just come in from Cheng Su, informing him about the personnel list for the border defense rotation and their speculations.

He knew about the necessity of defending the frontier, but he never expected to find himself on that list one day.

If this was an arrangement by the higher-ups in the organization, he had nothing to say. As a soldier, he had to go wherever the motherland needed him, regardless of danger, and put aside personal and family matters, all for the protection of the country.

But what about now? Could someone in power for their own private ends arbitrarily deploy soldiers under their command as if these soldiers were their personal servants?

He, Qi Taiguo, was a warrior cultivated with great effort by the nation!

Could power really enable one to act with such impunity?

Qi Taiguo’s lips tightened, and a cold, fierce light shot from his eyes.

Knock, knock!

"Come in!" Qi Taiguo took a deep breath, struggling to suppress the raging anger in his chest.

Xiao Zheng, the communications soldier, entered to report that Regimental Commander Mai had summoned Qi Taiguo to his office.

Qi Taiguo’s brow furrowed, and he nodded, "I got it!"

He tidied up his desk, donned his military cap, and quickly headed out the door.

Passing through the building, Chiang Qing came towards him. Seeing Qi Taiguo, her face lit up with joy. "Commander Qi."

With fury already burning in his heart, the sight of this femme fatale, the main culprit, inflamed his wrath as if facing a mortal enemy.

Before she could steady herself, Qi Taiguo’s piercing eyes glared at her coldly, his gaze sharp as ice blades, cutting straight through Chiang Qing.

Chiang Qing’s steps halted abruptly, looking at Qi Taiguo with some bewilderment.

Those eyes...why were they so cold, as if wanting to tear her to pieces?

Chiang Qing’s body began to tremble slightly.

Too frightening!

She had seen Qi Taiguo’s tender side, his cold side, and his refreshingly sunny side, but she had never seen him like this, with eyes so sharp and merciless, devoid of any warmth.

Chiang Qing instinctively took two steps back, her lips quivered, and she was about to say something but had already forgotten what it was.

Qi Taiguo stopped in front of her and said, "Your Chiang Family really does live up to the saying ’Birds of a feather flock together.’ Do you all like throwing your weight around like this? Huh, enlightening indeed!"

Chiang Qing swallowed hard and said, "What do you mean?"

"What do I mean?" Qi Taiguo’s eyes narrowed, looking down at her with an air of superiority. "You like me, don’t you?"

Chiang Qing’s breath hitched. He knew, of course he knew. He’d just never responded directly, and now?

"Chiang Qing, you truly are a toxic weed, bringing misfortune to whoever touches you. Please, from now on, stay away from me by at least ten meters," Qi Taiguo glared at her coldly and continued, "It doesn’t matter whether I’m married or single, nor does it matter if I end up with Cheng Su for the long haul. I, Qi Taiguo, will absolutely never like you, Chiang Qing. Even if there’s no Cheng Su, there will be someone else, but that someone will definitely not be you. I would rather die than be with you, Qi Taiguo!"

His words were resolute, like a vow.

There could be someone else, but it would never be her; he utterly refused her!

Chiang Qing’s face went pale. What had happened? Why had things suddenly turned out this way?

Rather die than be with her?

She laughed bitterly, spun on her heel, and with a crazed look in her eyes, watched Qi Taiguo’s retreating figure.

Just you wait and see, Qi Taiguo. Just you wait!
