Chapter 1351: Promotion to Major General
“Boss, Shen Bing’s mother is still not willing to sign the agreement, what should we do?”
Axe scratched his head and he looked helpless, “I called yesterday and tried my best but she isn’t willing to relent. She feels like reviving Shen Bing in game is like an insult to her daughter so what?”
Xing Lie said, “There is nothing I can do too.”
I said calmly, “Calm down, after the rank ceremony in the morning, we can go find auntie in the afternoon. Be patient, we should be able to persuade her.”
“En, okay then!”
……
At 8:30, the plane landed in Nanjing and someone led us into the meeting hall. There were many familiar places and they were all the top members of the various guardian teams. Many of them knew me and greeted me. Moreover, they congratulated me for killing the S Grade Artificial. At the same time, they also knew that I would become major general so they called me that.
I changed into a dark blue uniform and looked very serious. Axe and Xing Lie looked really happy and they looked very pleased with their achievements.
The ceremony got underway and it was really solemn.
One major general, three colonels and the rest were other ranks. Xing Lie was an airforce colonel and Axe was an airforce captain. If there was a mission they would all be under me. Although we didn’t know much about flying but we were the most experienced against Artificials. This was the reason why our ranks were so high.
The ceremony was officiated by a general and then he announced a KILLS operation. Because a bunch of people appeared at the southwest border and most of them were artificials. Some came from YN and some from MD, some were even S GRade artificials. The technology was finally used to affect China’s safety.
This mission was to behead the S Grade Artificials. There was no exact time but it would be within a month. The various guardian teams along with some of the airforce formed a special fighting team. 7000+ people and I were in charge. When we arrived at the border, I would be the commanding officer.
Sun Xiang was worried that I didn’t have enough experience so he gave me two helpers for me to learn from them. The two were older than me so I had no choice and I had to learn well.
The KILLS operation was discussed until 2 pm and I headed back to Hangzhou to continue our lives. That is because there was no decision on when to send us out. They were waiting for the best time and everything was in secret.
……
It was three when I arrived a Hang Zhou. Dong Cheng and Wan Er drove a car and waited for e. I led Axe and Xing Lie in the airforce uniform and appeared. The two of them were shocked. I was quite handsome so this uniform, it was too much for any girl.
Lin Wan Er didn’t dare to look at me and she giggled, “Piggy you are so handsome!”
“Is that so?”
I giggled and looked towards Dong Cheng, “Eh, Dong Cheng why aren’t you speaking?”
She couldn’t stand still and held the car window. She said, “Say what? You are so handsome that my legs are going numb, I can’t stand straight…”
Xing Lie nearly teared up, “Two sister in laws is so interesting!”
Axe stared, I only heard that handsome guys can make girls open their legs but never that one is so handsome that girls can’t stand, boss you really are different…”
“Please call me correctly.” I said solemnly, “Comrade Axe!”
“Yes Major General Li!”
I nodded in satisfaction.
Lin Wan Er was speechless, “Oi oi, are we going to see Shen Bing’s mother? I came to fetch you to go, so are we going?”
“Go go go, let’s head out!”
I looked at my uniform and said, “should I change?”
“No need, this is more convincing.”
“Okay then!”
……
At 4, we arrived at Shen Bing’s house and it was one near the suburbs.
The car stopped and Lin Wan Er and Dong Cheng got off. Xing Lie, Axe and I followed closely behind. When we entered, we saw that she was knitting. There was another auntie beside and she should be a neighbour. She recognised us and was stunned, “You all… Why did you all come?”
The neighbour was shocked, when did she see such a formation before?
The neighbour uncle came over and shouted, “Juan’s mother, the buns are about ready, take some for Bing’s mother to eat.”
But when he saw us, he dropped the bun on the ground and looked at me, “Little fellow, you… Why did you soldiers come here, who are you looking for?”
I said politely, “h.e.l.lo uncle, I am Shen Bing’s colleague, I came to find auntie.”
“Oh.” Uncle looked at my rank and was stunned, “Major General… Young family you are so amazing, so young and you are a major general… Bing’s mother, this fellow is a real general…”
Auntie was stunned, “Li Xiao Yao I know you, when Bing was alive she often talked about you.”
My eyes felt warm and I recalled when Shen Bing was alive and my heart felt like it was being sliced up, “Auntie, I came to talk to you about Shen Bing’s memory agreement. I just need you to sign.”
“No, definitely not!” She said firmly, “I won’t let her revive in some game. Do you know that that is a humiliation to her? Li Xiao Yao do you understand, she is my everything. She is gone but her soul is still here, I don’t want people to control her in game.”
I nodded, “I understand, I understand.”
I slowed down, “Auntie, the memory system is just a record do you know? Every thought, action and mood change is turned into information that is recorded. Her emotions are all in data. So if she really has a soul, it is there!”
I gritted my teeth, “Auntie, Sister Shen Bing wasn’t able to talk to you before she died, don’t you… Don’t you want to know what else she has to say to you?”
She instantly collapsed and her shoulders shook and she teared up, “I… I…”
I, “Auntie I will buy you a game helmet so you can enter the game and see her. That is my promise to you. Then you can know what she wants to tell you. If you are willing, you can go online to accompany her and even call her anytime. Don’t you want that?”
She was breaking down and Lin Wan Er helped wipe her tears. After a while, she raised her head to look at me, “Li xiao Yao really? I… I really can see her?”
I nodded, “Yes, please trust me, all of us want to see her She is your daughter but she is also our closest friend!”
“Then… Okay then, I will sign.”
……
Finally, auntie decided to sign. The agreement was handed to Ouyang Nuoyan and what happened next wasn’t down to us. Until 7pm, everything was done and we headed back.
Qin Wen and Tang Qi were eating and when they saw my uniform, Qin Wen was in a daze, “Ah… This this this… So handsome? Wan Er does your husband have a brother?”
Wan Er laughed, “Cousin don’t joke okay?”
Tang Qi squinted his eyes, “Really so handsome… Wa, airforce major general? Xiao Yao you are so amazing, you really became a major general?”
I nodded, “En, I got it in Nanjing this morning, how can it be fake?”
“Envy, jealous!”
He held his fist and said, “Just this uniform alone makes me want to go join the army. Does the army need people? With my ability, what rank will they give me?”
“At least Lieutenant Colonel, as long as you are willing to risk your life at the border.”
“I do…” He scratched his head, “My old man definitely won’t agree. If I want, he will definitely say something like good guys won’t join the army. It is tough.”
I stared at him, “Look at you, you really don’t plan on going to the army. Just continue with your good future!”
Dong Cheng Yue giggled, “Right.”
In truth, not everyone wanted to do what I did. Many people were willing to be more admin but rarely did people want to charge on the frontlines and fight S Grade artificials. After all, life was our own. So I respected Xing Lie and Axe. They didn’t have my cultivation and weren’t the match of Artificials but they were still able to face them fearlessly. They were true men.
Actually, Wolf and Old K had b.a.l.l.s too. They dared to face w.a.n.g Ze Cheng, such brothers were the greatest pride of my life.

Don’t think too much, head online. Time to see the war between Pearl and Sif.
