Mercenary’s War
Chapter 155 - 155 154 Frey's Dream

155: Chapter 154 Frey’s Dream 155: Chapter 154 Frey’s Dream Gao Yang had the most restful sleep he’d had in a long time, sleeping until past two in the afternoon the next day before he finally got up, feeling completely satisfied.

After freshening up, he went to the living room.

Including Frey, the other four members of the Satan Mercenary Corps were already in the living room.

On seeing Gao Yang, Cui Bo complained, “Brother Yang, you really can sleep!

Frey mentioned inviting us over for a big meal, but you’ve been asleep until now.

I suggested waking you up, but they all disagreed, insisting on letting you sleep well.

Ah, they have no idea about your sleeping prowess.

I bet if you hadn’t woken up because you were hungry, you could’ve slept till this time tomorrow.”

Frey hurriedly said, “It’s fine, it’s absolutely fine.

I’ve already called to change lunch to dinner.

It’s rare for the boss to have a good sleep, it’s my fault for being too anxious.

Boss, I want to give you a gift.”

Frey seemed very excited as he took out a small gift box from the bag he was holding, trotted up to Gao Yang, and handed him the box while saying anxiously, “Boss, you saved me and my mom from a desperate situation, and Ella too.

Our whole family is grateful to you.

Please accept my gift, it’s a little token of my appreciation, you must not refuse.”

After thanking him, Gao Yang took the small box from Frey and immediately tore off the wrapping paper.

He opened what looked like a very fancy box, only to find a watch inside.

The watch, suitable for formal attire, had a metal strap with a silver-white dial, and looked very sleek.

Its logo resembled a German Iron Cross.

Gao Yang put the watch on his wrist, looked at it from every angle, and said, “Nice, it’s very good-looking.

Thank you.”

Feeling a little embarrassed, Frey said, “Actually, I didn’t buy the watch.

I found it on Gaddafi’s desk.

Hehe, when I saw a watch on the table, I just pocketed it.

I always intended to give it to you, but never found the right opportunity.

This morning, I had it appraised and they said it’s a Vacheron Constantin from the Patrimony series, pretty nice.

Well, to be honest, I only bought the box.”

Gao Yang frowned and said, “Vacheron Constantin?

I think I’ve heard of that brand.

Aren’t watches from that brand very expensive?”

Rubbing his hands together with excitement, Frey responded, “Exactly, very, very expensive.

This watch is worth sixty thousand US dollars, boss, and it looks great on you, perfectly suited.”

Gao Yang, with a frown, started to take off the watch and said in a stern voice, “Frey, I truly appreciate your gesture, but you should have sold the watch.

This kind of watch isn’t suitable for us to wear, and you know I have a watch too.”

Frey quickly said, “Boss, it’s a gift from me, it doesn’t matter how much it’s worth, how could you return a gift?

Besides, I didn’t buy it.

When I took it, I was waiting for the right moment to give it to you.

Boss, I’m not a miser, really, and I very much want to express my gratitude to you.

You should know that my whole family is very thankful to you.”

Gao Yang stopped taking off the watch and hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, “Alright then, I can only thank you again for your gift.

It’s actually a bit too valuable, Frey.”

With an embarrassed smile, Frey replied, “No, no, boss.

Compared to everything you’ve done for me, this is nothing at all.”

After finishing, Frey rubbed his hands together apologetically and said, “To express my thanks to everyone, I’ve booked seats at Johannesburg’s most expensive restaurant.

It looks like we can only go there for dinner.

Actually, I wanted to invite everyone over to my place, but my mom needs some time to prepare, otherwise it would be too simple and improperly hospitable.

However, before we leave, I’m sure there will be an opportunity to invite everyone over for a meal.”

After some hesitation, Gao Yang finally said in a serious voice, “Alright, Frey, I actually have something I want to talk to you about too.

Come, sit down, let’s have a chat.”

After pulling Frey to the sofa, Gao Yang fell silent for a while before speaking in a serious tone, “Frey, you chose to be a mercenary with me just because you were poor at the time.

Now, I think you’ve earned enough to live on, don’t you?”

Frey’s complexion turned pale immediately, he opened his mouth wide and stared at Gao Yang, saying, “Boss, are you trying to get rid of me?”

Gao Yang gave a wry smile and said, “How could that be considered getting rid of you?

Don’t misunderstand, Frey, I just think that you’ve already earned enough.

If you’re not enjoying South Africa, you can completely emigrate to a country you like.

You should lead the life you ought to, being a mercenary isn’t a good choice.”

Looking pale, Frey nodded with difficulty and said, “I understand, boss.

I really can’t do anything else, I’m only causing trouble for you guys, I even peed my pants from fear.

It makes sense for you to fire me, I get it.”

Gao Yang helplessly said, “Damn it, can’t you understand?

You’ve performed perfectly fine, you even saved mine and Lee Jinfang’s lives.

If it weren’t for your two grenades, we would’ve been killed by the armored car’s machine gun, so you’re not useless.

Oh, hell, I just think you should live the life you’re supposed to.”

Glorov also said in a serious tone, “Frey, as my assistant gunner, you’ve actually performed quite well, especially for your first battle.

You did great, I get what Gao is saying, he just doesn’t want you to take risks.

You’re still young, your future shouldn’t be that of a mercenary.”

Frey looked stunned and said, “But I think being a mercenary is the most suitable thing for me.

I can’t imagine any other career that would pay me as well with my abilities.

So, my dream is to be a successful mercenary.”

Gao Yang let out a helpless wave of his hand and said, “Frey, it’s only because all of us were lucky this time that you’ve made a lot of money.

Do you think you can always find Gaddafi’s luxury items to capture?

Stop kidding, this is an exception.

In most cases, all we get is our commission, okay?”

“Of course, I understand, boss.

What I mean is the commission; just think about it, sixty thousand dollars in two months.

What other job could I do that would pay me that much?

So, what I’m considering is the salary.

I never expected to always be this lucky.

Boss, we’re about to start training soon, and I promise to train hard.

Please don’t send me away, I beg you.”

Seeing Frey’s pleading eyes, all Gao Yang could do was to helplessly gesture and say, “You’ve beaten me, forget it; you can stay.

Just pretend I didn’t say anything.

Get ready, we’re heading to Israel.”
