“Don’t worry. I’ll help them since you ask me,” said He Jingyan.
He was not putting Xu Yangyi off. If Country C was destroyed, Kastra wouldn’t be able to help Xu Yangyi in the future.
“An Yan.”
“Here, Colonel.”
“Call Luo Sen and the others to come over. Ask them to bring good tents, water, and food. If they don’t have sufficient supply, purchase more tomorrow.”
“Yes, Colonel.”
“By the way, bring Xiao Ling here.”
An Yan thought he heard it wrong, paused.
“Does Xiao Ling have to come along?”
He Jingyan knew what An Yan was thinking. Xiao Ling looked delicate and couldn’t survive the environment here.
“There is no cook here. Xiao Ling can cook for us. You ask Ji Guangming to watch over Country Z. Get Wu Jing and Shang Xuan to protect him,” said He Jingyan.
Ask Ji Guangming to watch over Country Z?
An Yan was taken aback, thinking Luo Sen should be a better candidate to stay in Country Z and deal with the soldiers there. Besides, most of the Dragon Team was there as well.
“Colonel, Ji Guangming can’t deal with so many soldiers, can he?”
“Don’t worry. Mai Dan will help him.”
He Jingyan had known what had happened between Ji Guangming and Mai Dan. He was cunning and tricked the information out of Mai Dan.
“Yes, Colonel.”
An Yan did not ask too much and obeyed He Jingyan’s orders.
“What’s going on? Ji Guangming is taking charge? This is unreasonable! Did something happen to Ji Guangming and Mai Dan?”
Flying Eagle got curious and elbowed Yan Chengyu.
“If you want to know, ask the Colonel. Don’t ask me.”
Yan Chengyu ignored Flying Eagle and followed An Yan.
“You care more about your lover than your friends. I don’t understand. Are all newbies nowadays so arrogant?”
Flying Eagle felt displeased, looking at Fei Yin beside him.
Fei Yin gave a shrug and raised his head, drinking up the water in the bottle.
When he put down the bottle, the child who ran to Xu Yangyi looked at them again. This time, she was looking straight at the bottle in Fei Yin’s hand.
“Do you want this?”
Fei Yin extended the bottle out and gave the little girl a warm smile.
This was the first time Flying Eagle had seen Fei Yin smile. He was stunned.
‘So he can smile. His smile is so warm.’
Flying Eagle didn’t know that Fei Yin liked children very much. He was the eldest in his family and had several younger brothers and sisters. The youngest one was ten years old this year.
The little girl didn’t dare to come over. She looked at her weak mother, waiting for her permission.
“Go ahead,” her mother said.
The little girl gave an innocent smile and stumbled to Fei Yin. She looked like a two-year-old child, who was thin and malnourished.
The little girl ran to Fei Yin, but she didn’t ask him for the bottle. Instead, she twined his fingers in embarrassment and looked at him.
Fei Yin squatted down and put his rifle behind him to ease the girl’s fear.
“Here you go.”
The little girl hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take the bottle. She mumbled, “Thank you, mister.”
“Don’t mention it.” Fei Yin smiled and touched the little girl’s head.
Flying Eagle squatted down and gave the little girl his bottle of water. “Here is some water for you.”
The little girl’s eyes lit up, but she didn’t drink the water. Instead, she took it and held it in her arms. “Can I give it to my mother?”
Her words brought tears to the soldiers’ eyes.
“Yes, of course!” said Flying Eagle.
“Thank you, mister.”
The little girl held the bottle and ran back to her mother.
Flying Eagle and Fei Yin had only one bottle of water. They had no food, so they couldn’t give the refugees anything now.
