Chapter 734 - 353: The Initial Show of Authority (Part 1)

Looking at the somewhat familiar attire in the mirror, Su Jiameng was stunned for a moment, but her hands didn’t slow down. She swiftly put on her tie and military jacket, buttoned each button, tidied up any uneven places, and appeared full of vigor.

"Two lifetimes and still only a Lieutenant General..." Su Jiameng looked at the epaulettes on her shoulders, then thought about Yu Feng’s rank, feeling a bit unbalanced again. Clearly, she had numerous military merits in her past life too, yet she died as only a Lieutenant General, while Yu Feng was already an Admiral.

She had never figured out why until Yu Feng easily forged a Lieutenant General identity for her, and she had an epiphany.

The large environments of the two planes are different, naturally making the situations different as well. In Yu Feng’s plane, the influence of aristocratic families on the Alliance is overwhelming, capable of easily swaying the Alliance’s choices and desires, so Yu Feng, as the undisputed heir of the Yu Family and an Alliance Admiral, naturally had ways to open back doors for her. The same situation would be pure fantasy in Su Jiameng’s second life’s plane!

However, regardless of how it came to be, being able to gain the identity of a Lieutenant General, command an army on missions, and have all expenses covered by others was simply splendid for her! In such a mood, Su Jiameng even ignored the surge of emotions within her.

She casually picked up the military cap beside her, placed it neatly on her head, adjusted whatever might be amiss in the mirror, and, once everything was perfect, confidently prepared to assume her post. Since her file showed she had already "advanced" to Lieutenant General for two to three years and had significant combat experience, many cumbersome procedures were skipped, and she directly took on the role.

"Jiameng, pay attention when you go today; they probably won’t yield so easily," Liang Xiaonuo and others naturally also had their own fake identities and assumed different positions after the parachuting in. "When I arrived, I heard quite a bit of discord, with some even speculating that you gained your position by pleasing Yu Feng, each one full of resentment."

Pleasing Yu Feng? Su Jiameng listened to Liang Xiaonuo’s words, was momentarily taken aback, and then reacted. Pleasing, what elegant words. But put more crudely, in simpler terms, wasn’t it just seduction and trading one’s body? Did she seem like that kind of woman?

Moreover, pleasing? Did these people have such vivid imaginations? Did their former direct superior Yu Feng know? And in their eyes, was Yu Feng’s weight only this much? Was he just a lascivious fool swayed by women, who couldn’t distinguish public from private, and not consider the bigger picture?

Thinking about it, Su Jiameng just informed Yu Feng of this matter and, in passing, said, "I think it would be more plausible if I defeated you and threatened you into giving me the position... Pleasing what, would you dare accept if I dared to do so?"

Naturally, the exhausted Yu Feng, for whom sleep was a luxury, upon seeing her message, was instantly revitalized, losing all drowsiness. He said with frustration, "A bunch of little brats spouting nonsense, why take it to heart? If they’re planning to give you a hard time, don’t worry about my face, just deal with it directly."

Yu Feng best understood the soldiers he trained. Each was quite prickly and wouldn’t easily submit to others.

Their resistance to Su Jiameng was due to her "notorious" reputation and embarrassing rumors. Though they wouldn’t be so bold as to violate military orders and refuse execution, they certainly wouldn’t be completely loyal and obedient to her either. Yu Feng was willing to help her smooth over this situation, but doing so would only further confirm the rumor that Su Jiameng depended on "pleasing him to rise"!

Moreover, given Su Jiameng’s bad temper, she likely wouldn’t appreciate him meddling. The military power of that troop had already been transferred to her, and she was in charge. If he intervened, it would be interfering in others’ military affairs, likely creating enmity.

The last sentence from Yu Feng was what Su Jiameng most wanted to hear, "With that from you, I’m relieved. I’ll try not to cause any fatalities."

Yu Feng’s forehead was lined with frustration. If Su Jiameng hadn’t said anything, he wouldn’t have been worried, but her words made him concerned. However, he believed she had good judgment and wouldn’t go too far.

Before cutting the connection, Yu Feng playfully said, "Regarding what you said earlier, my response is probably ’I dare to accept.’ If such a good woman takes the initiative, wouldn’t it be blind not to catch her well?"
