Ninth class citizen

Chapter 196 Whoever Digs the Hole Should Fill It
The suspicion revealed in his eyes was seen by everyone who should understand, so Yu Xingchang felt that he was extremely wronged.

I swear to God, Melissa is still staying in her own Star Chief's Mansion. Is he bored and has nothing better to do? How dare he threaten the people she is protecting?

And he would have to risk offending the powerful division commanders of the two major federal military regions and disrupting the normal enrollment of higher education institutions?

This is a federal taboo and will be severely punished once discovered.

The last person who dared to do such a thing is still mining on a remote and desolate prisoner planet!

"Commander Yuan misunderstood." Nan Rong said calmly, "It's just because I personally love peace and never like fighting and killing, so my life plan does not include joining the army."

Now that things have come to this, Colonels Gu and Yuan can no longer force the other party to do something.

Although everyone has their own aspirations, in the history of the Federation, those who dared to reject the two top military academies at the same time were really rare. Even if there were, they were all direct descendants of the nine major families.

They are born superior, not only with outstanding natural appearance, but also with various genetic drugs to support them, so they have the right to freely choose among the top universities.

But Nan Rong is just a small ninth-class citizen. Even if he has gained the favor of Lady Melissa, his best future is to be absorbed into the Campbell family.

It was difficult to gain wholehearted trust from an outsider of such a large family. If Nan Rong wanted to advance further within the family in the future, she would have to find a way to marry a Campbell to make this connection even closer.

Marriage has always been the only way for the major families in the Federation to strengthen themselves. Among them, the door of marriage among the nine major families is particularly difficult to open. If Nan Rong could really marry a Campbell whose blood is close to the direct line, then she would be like a country chicken turning into a phoenix, and completely complete the transformation of her status from humble to noble.

But that is all a matter for the future. Now that Nan Rong has already slapped the faces of the two major military academies, there is no reason for Gu and Yuan to force it.

"Everyone has their own aspirations." Colonel Gu said coldly, "As long as Nan Rong doesn't regret it, that's fine."

When Colonel Yuan heard him say this, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. As long as Nan Rong didn't enter the First Military Academy, what did it matter where she went? As for Vice Principal Tang, it was just a casual arrangement based on his brother's suggestion. If he knew Nan Rong's attitude, he would probably think she was ungrateful.

Anyway, seeing Gu Chen being humiliated, Yuan Hong just felt happy.

"It's okay." He smiled. "Life is long, and you really need to think carefully. My promise just now is still valid. Before the end of the league, if Nan Rong changes his mind, you can come to me at any time."

He smiled and exchanged contact numbers with Nan Rong.

From the moment they took their seats, Gu Chen's men turned off the short-range information shielding device to show respect to the local administrative and military leaders.

The welcoming banquet ended early, and the two colonels left with their men. Captain Yu Xing and Chief Du watched a good show for free, and they couldn't help but look at Nan Rong with admiration.

Yu Lin approached Nan Rong and was about to say something when he suddenly saw a big drop of cold sweat on Chairman Wei's forehead. His face was gray and ugly. "Nan Rong." Chairman Wei's voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, gloomy and sharp: "You have deceived me!"

A few minutes later, Director Yu Xing and Chief Du, who had understood the situation, frowned heavily and stared at Chairman Wei with murderous eyes.

How could they have imagined that Chairman Wei would be so stupid as to sign an agreement with such harsh terms?

Chairman Wei explained dryly, "I really didn't expect Nan Rong to win twenty-one games in a row, nor did I expect that in addition to the First Military Academy, the Central Military Academy would also be vying to admit Nan Rong. And most importantly, who knew she would reject two top military academies at the same time?"

"As long as Nan Rong doesn't choose the First Military Academy, then the First Military Academy and the First Army will not recruit people from Xiluo Star in the next 20 years." Chief Du gritted his teeth:

"To be honest, the First Military Academy trains officers, and the requirements are high. In a place like Xiluo Star, there are not many people who can be favored by them. But the First Army is different."

Yu Xingzhang was also very familiar with this matter: "Indeed, there are millions of unmanned troops in the star, and everyone hopes to enter the five major armies through the biennial selection competition. Among them, the first army has the best treatment and is the most popular. If they knew about this, I'm afraid it would be difficult to lead the team."

"So, classmate Nan Rong." Director Du turned to Nan Rong and said, "I have an unwelcome request."

Yu Lin spoke before Nan Rong could, "The bet was signed by Chairman Wei. Nan Rong had no knowledge of it before, and he has no responsibility to pay for it."

"Ah, this is indeed my fault." Chairman Wei did not intend to shirk responsibility, but he also could not afford the consequences of losing everything:

"I am personally willing to accept any punishment, but now that things have come to this, we still need to discuss how to resolve it."

"Colonel Gu must have been joking with Chairman Wei." Yu Lin said, "He is in a high position and has great power. How can he cut off the path of talent's advancement just because of a harmless bet?"

"No." Chief Du shook his head. "Mr. Yu, you are not a soldier, so you don't know much about Commander Gu. He is a man of his word. Even if he knows he is wrong, he will stick to it. Since the agreement has been signed, it is impossible to change it. Unless..."

"I'm sorry." Nan Rong stood up. "Thank you, Director Yu, for your hospitality tonight. I understand what Director Du means, but I really can't help. There is an old saying on Xiluo Star that whoever digs the hole should fill it. Since neither party asked for my opinion when the agreement was made, I have no obligation to bear any consequences arising from it."

"Do you know who you are talking to?" General Du frowned: I can forget your attitude just now, but this matter is settled! For a ninth-class citizen, being able to enter the First Military Academy is a step up to heaven, there is no room for you to think or not, willing or not! "

Nan Rong sneered and was about to answer when Yu Xingchang spoke first.

"Old Du." He sighed, "You really need to change your temper. What Nan Rong said just now is absolutely right. What does this have to do with her? She has her own plans for her life and has better choices. Why should we interfere?"

"Is this something that can be resolved without me interfering?" Commander Du said with a sullen face, "Before I came, the people below heard that Commander Gu of the First Army had arrived, and they all clamored to fight for the quota to maintain order in the league, just to see their idol, Colonel Gu. If they knew that the First Army would not recruit anyone for the next 20 years, how disappointed would they be?"

"Don't worry." Yu Xingchang said, "Wei Zhao is my subordinate, so I will take the responsibility if he makes a mistake. I will personally communicate with Master Gu. It's impossible for such a small matter to affect everyone's future."
