Chapter 333: Chapter 332: [Zhang Lan’s Story]

Bang bang bang!

The fight between Ye Tianchen and Zhang Lan got more and more intense, to the extent that it disturbed Cang Lang, Luo Weike, and Han Jie, who were nearby. Especially Han Jie, who had been scared into sleep, was woken up by the noise.

When Cang Lang, Luo Weike, and Han Jie reached the doorway of Ye Tianchen’s room, all three of them were taken aback when they heard the sounds of fighting inside and found it somewhat strange.

With a creak, the door was pushed open by Cang Lang. The three people outside, including Han Jie, witnessed a very speechless and awkward scene. On Ye Tianchen’s bed, Zhang Lan, wearing sexy pajamas, with bare arms and alluring legs, completely disregarded her image, even exposure, as she went all out against Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen also fought back from time to time, but he kept it gentlemanly and never hit hard, merely defending himself.

"Hey, I’ve been patient with you for a long time, don’t push me to make a move!" Ye Tianchen blocked a punch from Zhang Lan and pretended to be very angry as he spoke.

"Big bad guy, do you think I’ll let you get away with this? Just go ahead and make your move!" Zhang Lan was not someone to be provoked easily. She didn’t fall for Ye Tianchen’s act and threw another punch at him.

Ye Tianchen was really at his wits’ end. He now somewhat regretted teasing Zhang Lan, and even more so for stealing her first kiss. This bizarre woman was different from Qi Ruxue and Su Feifei before her. Though all were peculiar, Zhang Lan was a formidable woman— skilled and strong-willed, not someone to be trifled with.

Since Ye Tianchen kissed her, Zhang Lan’s cheeks had been flushed. For a girl, especially one who had never been in a relationship, the first kiss held significant meaning and was unforgettable. But thinking of Ye Tianchen, the bad guy, Zhang Lan was so angry that she couldn’t calm down and kept trying to teach Ye Tianchen a lesson.

Facing Zhang Lan’s relentless attacks, Ye Tianchen, though stronger, was left with no spare moment, just continuously blocking. As a result, Ye Tianchen’s upper lip, bitten by Zhang Lan, had traces of blood and even teeth marks—clear signs of a fresh bite, and who else could it be but Zhang Lan?

Bang!

Just as Cang Lang, Luo Weike, and Han Jie pushed open the door to Ye Tianchen’s room and before they could say anything, Zhang Lan lifted her leg high and aimed a kick at Ye Tianchen. He dodged quickly, and her kick landed heavily on the bed, causing it to collapse instantly.

This scene left the three of them, including Cang Lang, utterly speechless. Should this get out, goodness knows what others would say. At the very least, there might be comments like: Ye Tianchen and Zhang Lan, a man and a woman alone on a bed, fighting so hard they broke it!

Even the purest of minds would be led astray by hearing that phrase, especially since both Ye Tianchen and Zhang Lan were single and unmarried, bound to spark speculation!

As the bed collapsed under Zhang Lan’s kick, Ye Tianchen and Zhang Lan got to their feet as quickly as possible, glaring fiercely at each other.

"This is it. If you dare come at me again, I will seriously make my move!" Ye Tianchen hehe’d with a smile, his words filled with a teasing intent.

"Weirdo man, do you think I’d be afraid of you?" Zhang Lan pursed her sexy lips, her thoughts unavoidably returning to the sensation of the kiss from Ye Tianchen.

"Weirdo woman, I’m not afraid of you either!"

Ye Tianchen and Zhang Lan had completely locked horns with each other, neither willing to back down even half a step, which made Cang Lang and the others shake their heads. These two were acting just like children, truly leaving others at a loss for words.

As Zhang Lan was about to charge at Ye Tianchen again, she was suddenly pulled back by Han Jie. Huffing with frustration, she gave Ye Tianchen a scornful look, then turned and headed out of the room. This time she didn’t manage to teach Ye Tianchen a lesson, and he had even taken her first kiss. Zhang Lan felt a mix of anger and shame, wishing she could bite a chunk out of that guy’s flesh.

"You... you little..."

"Sleep, sleep. Take a rest, and then we’ll be heading back!"

Cang Lang and Luo Weike didn’t know what to say, so they turned around and walked out of the room, leaving only Han Jie and Ye Tianchen inside. Ye Tianchen glanced at Han Jie without saying anything but walked over to the bed. One of the bed legs had been broken off by Zhang Lan’s kick, so he propped it up, trying to figure out how to fix it—after all, how could anyone sleep for a few more hours like this?

After fiddling for a while, Ye Tianchen could only lean the bed on the other side, using a bedside table to prop it steady. After testing it and finding no issues, he lay down on it. Han Jie glanced at Ye Tianchen, walked over to him, and asked, "Your injuries are okay now, right?"

"All good now, you should go get some rest. We need to head back to Capital City early tomorrow!" Ye Tianchen said with a smile, shaking his head.

When Han Jie heard Ye Tianchen’s words, she didn’t leave but sat down beside his bed, looking at him deeply, her eyes filled with touched tears. It was at this moment she realized that this man was truly remarkable. Although sometimes he was nonsensical and lecherous, he was undoubtedly a man worth entrusting her life to, someone who could make a woman fall in love with him without her even realizing it.

"Tianchen..." Han Jie called out softly.

"Does the commander have any orders?" Ye Tianchen asked with a stern face.

Seeing Ye Tianchen acting this way, Han Jie couldn’t help but give him a coquettish glare. She knew full well that she had been granted this military rank of a high-level commander because she needed such an identity to enter a critical military base in the US while stealing information for the country. In reality, Han Jie was just military scientific research personnel. Now that Ye Tianchen brought this up, it was clear to anyone that he was teasing her.

"Heh heh, still not sleeping at this late hour; could it be you want to offer your body in dedication?" Ye Tianchen chuckled as he continued to tease.

Faced with Ye Tianchen’s shameless lechery, Han Jie was utterly at a loss for words. Whenever there wasn’t something serious happening, it meant that it was time for his nonsensical attitude to take over, making it extremely difficult for her to have a serious conversation with him.

"Tianchen, I’m serious. The attack by the North Star One-Strike Style of Japan on our Black Mist Forest border is no small matter. When we get back, you must help me persuade the higher-ups to make thorough arrangements!" Han Jie said to Ye Tianchen earnestly.

"Don’t worry about it. Old Commander and Yang Yi are much smarter than us. They’re probably already working on arrangements!" Ye Tianchen reassured her with a smile.

Han Jie nodded. She knew what she said was unnecessary, but she didn’t know what else to say. Ye Tianchen always acted so frivolously at critical moments, leaving her at a loss for how to communicate with him.

"By the way, Tianchen, don’t take what happened with Lanlan too much to heart. She’s just like that: strong-willed, but actually a very kind and caring person!" Han Jie brought up her cousin Zhang Lan, unable to help herself from speaking.

"Oh? A very good person? Very caring? Why haven’t I noticed?" asked Ye Tianchen with a laugh.

At that moment, Han Jie was sitting by Ye Tianchen’s bedside. She gave him a look and began to tell her cousin’s story. In terms of family background, Zhang Lan was born into a very ordinary military family: her father was a special forces soldier, and her mother a military cultural worker. Growing up immersed in military life, Zhang Lan gradually came to love this lifestyle. From a young age, she didn’t believe that girls should be behind boys; girls could also accomplish what boys could.

At the age of eighteen, the graceful Zhang Lan gave up the opportunity to attend Kyoto Dragon Ascending University to join the female Special Police Team instead. After more than three years of training, Zhang Lan stood out among the many excellent female soldiers and became the captain of the team, known throughout Capital City as the most beautiful and toughest policewoman. In this position, Zhang Lan had many admirers, but none could truly move her heart or touch the deepest chord within her.

Zhang Lan served as the captain of the female Special Police Team for two more years before she suddenly returned home one day, announcing she had resigned from her post and was planning to return to civilian life in the city. She wanted a peaceful life without fierce battles and thrilling experiences.

This decision caused an uproar in the entire Zhang family, and even the associated families like Han Jie’s the Han family were shaken. Having a captain of the female Special Police Team who was young, beautiful, and extraordinarily talented was a matter of pride for any family. Suddenly saying she no longer wanted to serve in the military impacted everyone, especially since Zhang Lan’s father almost cut ties with her over this, which illustrates the severity of the situation.

However, in the end, Zhang Lan won. With her perseverance and actions, she proved to everyone that she could excel in other fields as well, perfectly so. In a very short time, relying on her efforts, she secured a job in a state-owned enterprise and stabilized her position. She was indeed an extraordinary girl.

Of course, Zhang Lan wasn’t just strong and self-reliant; after all, she was a girl. Just as Han Jie said, Zhang Lan was a girl with a lot of heart. She would take in stray dogs and cats from the streets, send them to animal management centers, and even paid to adopt dozens of orphans. She was a very emotional girl, not the kind who was so aggressive that no man dared to approach her.

"My cousin is very headstrong, that’s why she doesn’t want to admit defeat," said Han Jie with a smile.

"She is pretty headstrong. I won’t blame her. For someone as cool and handsome as me, I’m quite magnanimous!" Ye Tianchen said with a roguish laugh. (To be continued.
