Chapter 708: Chapter 708: Going Home to Have a Baby Monkey

"Why!"

Huffing and puffing, Xu Zhi Rou stormed back into the headquarters, pushing open the grand doors and striding in purposefully.

Seeing Prince Zhen Nan, Xu Kun, standing in front of the command platform, she could no longer control her emotions and bellowed out loud.

"Why did we declare the end of the exercise just when our special combat team had reached the enemy’s headquarters? This is too much, we already had the upper hand! Just two more hours and we could have crushed their command center, maybe even capturing their chief commander alive. To pull us back now is to waste all our efforts!"

You must understand, for the success of this surprise attack, Xu Zhi Rou had led her team in silence for a whole month.

They had taken the most improbable route, crossed a mountain with an altitude exceeding four thousand meters, and had barely reached the vicinity of the enemy command center, only to have everything ruined by a single notice.

This infuriated Xu Zhi Rou immensely, unable to fathom why her father would issue such a command.

Especially since missing this opportunity could lead to unforeseen consequences next time.

This was a fleeting chance on the battlefield, one whose recurrence was uncertain.

"Calm down now,"

Prince Zhen Nan watched Xu Zhi Rou with a smile, fully aware of her temperament.

Her innate competitiveness was stronger than any man’s.

"How can I not be agitated? For this mission, we endured so much suffering and hardship, why should it be terminated just like that? I think you did it on purpose, you didn’t want us to win!"

Xu Zhi Rou glared at Prince Zhen Nan, unable to suppress her anger.

Only she knew what they had been through.

That month and a half of trekking was like a descent into hell for each one of them.

They were on the verge of reaping the rewards when her father intentionally compromised them, which was simply unbearable.

"Actually, the military exercise had already ended on the second day after you departed!"

Prince Zhen Nan stated gravely, his words causing Xu Zhi Rou to be stunned.

"How is that possible! It was you who designed the route with me... you... you lied to me!"

"Yes, I indeed deceived you. The enemy command center you saw was also staged by me!"

Xu Kun sighed and sat down on a chair.

"Why..."

Xu Zhi Rou’s eyes widened in astonishment.

She couldn’t believe that all her efforts had been just a charade played by her own father.

"Because... I originally did not want you to return to Jiangning!"

Prince Zhen Nan looked at the gaunt Xu Zhi Rou, who had indeed suffered a great deal throughout that month and more.

But he had set up this scenario specifically to hold her back.

"You... you really are tedious. Do you think keeping me here for a month or so will change my decision? I said I would return after the exercise was over, and nothing you do will change my mind, not even wasting my time. Even if I have to quit wearing this uniform, I still intend to take care of Lin Fan for life!"

Xu Zhi Rou angrily ripped off her epaulette.

This exercise was something she had agreed to just to give herself a reason.

Now that it was over, she was ready to move on with her own life.

"You don’t need to resign, because I just received a message from the Dragon Emperor, Lin Fan has already awakened. Moreover, he has taken down the Gong Family overnight and hurt Nangong Haoqin, who had previously caused trouble in the Southern Border!"

The words of Prince Zhen Nan left Xu Zhi Rou stunned.

A surprised smile then appeared on her face.

"He is safe... that’s wonderful... I want to go back and see him right now!"

Lin Fan’s recovery was definitely the most concerning matter for Xu Zhi Rou.

So, this news was absolutely the best for her.

"You’d better be prepared mentally!"

Seeing his daughter’s smile, Prince Zhen Nan sighed.

"Prepared... Did something happen to Lin Fan?"

Xu Zhi Rou hastily asked.

"It isn’t that something happened to him... but rather, his attitude has changed from before!"

Prince Zhen Nan lit a cigarette, took a couple of deep drags, and then spoke, "Actually, it wasn’t just my scheme that lured you out; the Dragon Emperor also used an excuse to send Zhao Jiaqi to the Martial Cultivator sect for training. The real intention was to keep her away from Lin Fan, who, having become a vegetative, held no value anymore..."

"Value, what do you mean by value? Do you all measure a person by their value?"

On hearing these words, Xu Zhi Rou exploded.

"Is it not so?"

Prince Zhen Nan still looked calmly at his daughter, "Do you like him because he is a womanizer, with many women? Or is it not because he is powerful, righteous, and also the Wolf King of the Fang Clan? This is also a display of value."

"No... of course not, you might be right, but that doesn’t mean it represents the value in my heart. All these are because I like him as a person; I don’t care about his many women, and no matter what he was before, as long as I approve of him, he will be my man in the future. I won’t leave him because he loses value, nor will I measure a person by their value!"

Xu Zhi Rou argued angrily.

This was definitely not her values.

"It doesn’t matter anymore, at least from a father’s perspective, I can’t just watch you waste your life on someone who’s become a wreck. Perhaps when you become a mother in the future, you’ll understand this principle, even if you think I’m worldly and heartless, it doesn’t matter, this is just a father’s way of protecting his daughter."

Prince Zhen Nan was not trying to argue these insignificant things with Xu Zhi Rou.

But was trying to discuss the future with her.

"Anyway, the Dragon Emperor already said, from Lin Fan’s tone, it was clear that he had given Zhao Jiaqi the eviction notice, which means it will be difficult for Zhao Jiaqi to appear by Lin Fan’s side in the future. Just as you left, I don’t know what Lin Fan’s attitude will be, so if you choose to go back this time... it might not be the same as before."

"I understand!"

Upon hearing all this, Xu Zhi Rou pursed her lips, her brows tightly furrowed.

Regardless of the reason, both she and Zhao Jiaqi had left Lin Fan at his most difficult time.

So fundamentally, there wouldn’t be much difference.

Right now, even if she blamed everything on her father, he probably wouldn’t forgive her heartlessness.

At such a time, telling him that she planned to go back and take care of him after finishing the play would be nothing more than empty words.

"So... do you still want to go back?"

Prince Zhen Nan Xu Kun looked at the dispirited Xu Zhi Rou.

He naturally wanted to bring Lin Fan under his command.

But just this one action of his might have already touched Lin Fan’s sensitive nerves.

If his daughter went back now, she might be turned away.

Xu Zhi Rou’s eyes suddenly became resolute.

"Of course I want to go back, no matter the outcome. I promised him that once the exercise is over, I would go back and have his babies. Even if he doesn’t know, I must fulfill my promise, regardless of the result... I don’t care!"
