It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

Chapter 1195 Unable To Handle!

Ling Lan frowned. “Isn’t this bad for you? If the war actually starts and the situation goes out of control, you’ll be a sinner in history.”

“Ling Lan, nothing is set in stone. Sometimes, we need to have the courage to take risks. The Federation needs the war. I need it too. Even if we didn’t find evidence against Twilight, I would still have come up with a plan to start a war,” Ling Xiao replied seriously.

“Don’t you want to remain behind the scenes? If everyone focuses their attention on you, you won’t be able to start your plan.” Ling Lan understood her father very well.

“We’re a bit passive now but it’s not bad too. What is mine will be mine in the end.” Ling Xiao’s gaze was confident.

Ling Lan relaxed. She was sure her father was well prepared but she was still worried. The only way to soothe herself from her anxiousness was to call him.

The two of them continued talking about their situation. Ling Xiao reminded Ling Lan of a few matters to pay attention to when she was expanding her team. If He Xuyang didn’t come in to remind him that time was tight, he wouldn’t want to end the call.

It was so rare that his daughter called him out of concern. Ling Xiao was so touched.

According to He Xuyang, his intelligence would drop when he was talking to two specific people.

One was his wife, Lan Luofeng. When he called his wife, he would smile sweetly and say all kinds of shameless things. As someone who was single, He Xuyang felt frustrated every time he listened to their sweet nothings. He hoped he could find a lady to marry immediately to soothe his lonely heart.

The second person was Young Master Lan. General Ling Xiao would turn into a dumb father whenever he talked to Ling Lan. The smile on his face was... indescribable. If he could, he wanted to stop the call between his general and Ling Lan. Ling Lan’s glorious image of his father was getting destroyed.

Of course, there were pros too. After chatting with his wife and Young Master Lan, Ling Xiao’s mood would get ten times better. Thus, He Xuyang welcomed such calls as it made his life easier.

Ling Xiao knew that if He Xuyang kept reminding him, it meant that there was really no time left. He sighed and said, “Lan’er, quickly form your independent army. You must quickly gain full control of Bse Nebula.”

Ling Lan turned serious. “Will my independent army be conscripted for this war?”

To protect the soldiers, newly formed divisions would only be sent to the battlefield after three years.

“No one knows what will happen so it’s better to prepare early than later. There’re many people who don’t like us in the military. If they can’t harm me, they might harm you.” This was the reason why Ling Xiao wanted to quickly rise in power. That way, his daughter could grow up safely.

“I understand. I will quickly expand my team.” Ling Lan nodded. It seemed like she had to push her companions harder.

The newly promoted brigade leaders and department heads of Lingtian suddenly felt a chill down their spine. They shuddered.

“It’s getting cold.” Luo Lang looked at the bright sky curiously.

“Indeed. Don’t forget to wear more clothes later,” Xie Yi said to him in concern.

“Okay!” Luo Lang smiled brightly at Xie Yi. It felt good to have someone worrying about him.

“Remember to keep warm,” Next to them, Li Yingjie said to Lin Zhong-qing who was arranging his documents seriously.

Lin Zhong-qing looked at him as though he was an idiot.

Li Yingjie was furious. “I am concerned about you. Why are you looking at me like that?”

Lin Zhong-qing replied coldly, “I’m looking at an idiot.”

“Idiot? Lin Zhong-qing, how dare you mock me! I want to fight with you.” Lin Zhong-qing was really his arch enemy.

“Go away.” Lin Zhong-qing pushed Li Yingjie out of his path.

Li Yingjie was caught off guard so he stumbled and almost fell on the ground.

“Are you ignoring me now?” Li Yingjie recovered his balance, rushed forward and stood in front of Lin Zhong-qing.

Lin Zhong-qing scanned from top to bottom and scoffed. “How did I mock you?”

Li Yingjie stammered, “You said that I’m.. an idio... aren’t you mocking me?”

“You don’t have common sense so you are an idiot. I’m not mocking you, I’m just stating the truth.” Lin Zhong-qing sneered.

“Why don’t I have common sense? Lin Zhong-qing, explain yourself.”

“The weather at Base Nebula never changes so why must I keep myself warm? Only an idiot will say that.” Lin Zhong-qing mocked him.

“...” Li Yingjie was stunned. He was right. The temperature on Base Nebula was controlled by the mainframe. It was set to the most comfortable temperature for them. They shouldn’t feel cold.

Lin Zhongqing glared at him before ignoring him and walking past Li Yingjie. This fellow had always been stupid since young.

After Lin Zhong-qing left, Li Yingjie regained his senses. He rushed to Xie Yi and said angrily, “Xie Yi, it was your fault.”

“What did I do?” Xie Yi was puzzled.

“When Luo Lang said the weather got colder, why didn’t you tell him that the temperature of the base never changes? Why did you ask him to wear more clothes?” Li Yingjie was frustrated. If it wasn’t for Xie Yi, he wouldn’t have said that to Lin Zhong-qing.

“Li Yingjie!” Xie Yi sighed as he patted Li Yingjie’s back. “You must master the art of talking.”

“Huh?” Li Yingjie was confused.

“You have to see who you are talking to. Luo Lang is a simple-minded person so I answered him in a straightforward manner. As for Lin Zhong-qing... he is as logical as Li Lanfeng. You can’t handle him.” Xie Yi chased after Luo Lang after he finished speaking.

“Can’t handle him? What do you mean? Hey, explain yourself.” Li Yingjie was even more confused. What was Xie Yi talking about? Unfortunately, Xie Yi wasn’t answering him as he was busy fluttering around Luo Lang.

Ling Xiao unwillingly hung up the call. He glared at He Xuyang, blaming him for interrupting his personal time with Ling Lan.

He Xuyang shrugged. He was smiling but in his heart, he complained, ‘General, do you think that you’re just a normal soldier? There’re so many things waiting for you to handle. I spend so much effort to squeeze out some time for you to take the call. Why are you still unsatisfied? Do you want me to resign? Hmph!’action
