Lance's breathing stagnated for a moment, and he answered cautiously, "Mr. President, I'm sorry, His Royal Highness Leng Ling and I were in the hospital just now and didn't have time to answer your call."
The man on the other end of the phone sneered, "If I hadn't called in person, wouldn't you have been prepared to report to me?"
"No, President, please don't misunderstand. It's just that His Highness Leng Ling has not behaved strangely during this period," Lance quickly organized the words in his mind, trying to use reasonable reasons to dispel Leng Xiao's suspicion of him.
Suspicious, "Lean Hans also kept to himself. I didn't see any abnormal behavior on his part, so I didn't report it to you. This was my dereliction of duty, I'm really sorry."
On the other side of the receiver, Leng Xiao's cold voice said, "It's good to know that you were wrong. I thought you had been deceived by those two people. I heard that Leng Ling's 'Freedom Eagle' mecha artillery regiment was involved in yesterday's air raid.
With a great victory, and that man had dominated the previous wars, Lien Hans's name has been accepted by many people. It seems that Leng Ling's methods are really clever, and the knight title of Lansen Kingdom is very good.
That man belongs to you."
"Mr. President, His Highness Leng Ling really loves Lanson. Judging from the few months I have followed him, he is loyal to Lanson and you. He does not look like a traitor to the country for glory."
"Really?" Leng Xiao's tone was cold, obviously dissatisfied with Lance's words, "You know, he brought that Valencian man back to Lanson."
Lance frowned and suddenly changed the topic, "As for Lien's words..."
"Dong dong, Adjutant Lance, can I come in?"
Outside the door, Ralph's voice sounded.
Lance hurriedly covered the microphone with his hand, turned around and responded, "Sergeant Ralph, I'm busy now, please wait a moment."
"good."
Lance lowered his voice into the microphone and spoke calmly, "Mr. President, there was someone outside just now. Ryan Hans has no flaws at the moment, but please don't worry, I will keep an eye on him and will never let him do anything."
I will also pay closer attention to any actions that threaten the Lansen Kingdom, including all actions of His Highness Leng Ling, and will not let go of any detail."
"Very good," Leng Xiao said with satisfaction. "If you want to know the truth about your father's death, just carry out the task assigned to you and don't be fooled by the illusion in front of you. Do you understand?"
"I see."
Lance put down the phone, his face stiffened, he straightened his clothes, opened the door and walked out.
Seeing Lance's expressionless face, Ralph felt a little strange, "Adjutant Lance, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay," Lance smiled meaninglessly, "By the way, what do you want from me?"
Ralph rubbed his head in embarrassment and said, "It's nothing serious. I haven't seen His Highness in the past few days. How is His Highness's health?"
Lance answered truthfully, "Your Highness is fine. I just accompanied him to visit the wounded in the field hospital."
"Then I'm relieved, Adjutant Lance, His Highness has worked so hard and hard, you must take good care of him, please."
Seeing the concern and sincerity that could not be hidden in Ralph's sea-blue eyes, a few traces of imperceptible complexity flashed through Lance's eyes, "Please rest assured, Sergeant Ralph, it is my duty to take care of His Highness.
I will definitely fulfill my duties.”
"Then I'll leave it to you. The military department still has things to deal with, so I'll leave first."
"good."
Lance watched Ralph leave, his eyes sparkling. Thinking of what Leng Ling had told him, he returned to the room and got busy.
**********
When Leng Ling returned from the field hospital, the sky had completely darkened.
Walking slowly in the corridor, looking out the window with dark eyes, staring at the dark blue night sky, Leng Ling was deeply worried.
"Your Highness, are you back?"
Leng Ling withdrew his gaze, saw Lance standing in front of him, nodded slightly, "Yes."
Seeing that Leng Ling looked slightly ill, Lance asked cautiously, "Your Highness, you look very tired, are you okay?"
"I'm fine," Leng Ling waved his hand.
The more Leng Ling behaves like this, the more uneasy Lance feels, "Shall I have someone prepare some food for you? You've been working too hard these past few days, and I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it."
Leng Ling's voice was calm, "Don't bother others, just bring me a cup of black tea."
"Okay, then I'll go get ready."
Leng Ling returned to the room, changed out of his military uniform, and walked into the bathroom.
Turn on the faucet, warm water pours down from your head, and a thin mist soon lingers in the bathroom.
Leng Ling stood silently, still letting the warm water flow across his body without a trace of fat, and his clear eyes were misty.
The crystal water drops flowed everywhere along the smooth skin, washing away the fatigue and soreness on the body, and the heavy sleepiness soon came over.
In a hazy moment, someone walked in, wiped Leng Ling's body gently, and carried him out of the bathroom.
Lying on the comfortable big bed, Leng Ling snorted lightly, and her slightly opened red lips were immediately sealed.
The other party only tasted it briefly, not deeply. The familiar smell and the pleasant and refreshing taste made Leng Ling not want to wake up from this dream at all.
"Well……"
Leng Ling finally opened his eyes and faced those eyes that were as dazzling as the sun. He slowly got up from the bed, glanced at the clean clothes on his body, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Did you change them for me?"
"Of course," Lean nodded and joked jokingly, "If I didn't come in, you would probably sleep in the bathroom."
Leng Ling lowered his eyebrows, and when he saw the delicious sandwiches and steaming milk placed on the table beside the bed, his stomach gurgled a few times in protest.
"Are you hungry? I've never seen you so hungry." Lien picked up the sandwich and handed it over, "Eat quickly."
Holding the sandwich with her slender fingertips, Leng Ling opened her mouth and bit into it slowly.
Thick slices of meat paired with crispy vegetables and topped with exotic sauces. The somewhat familiar taste made Leng Ling's eyes quietly light up, "This is..."
Catching the flash of light in the eyes of the person in front of him, Lean's smile deepened, "I finally remembered, I happened to buy this kind of seasoning in a store owned by a Valencian. How is it? Does it taste different?
"
Leng Ling relished the taste in his mouth, as if he was remembering the days he and Lien spent in the military academy.
At that time, he had made sandwiches for himself many times, and the taste never changed.
"Well, it tastes the same as back then."
Li En stretched out his fingers, wiped off the remaining condiment at the corner of Leng Ling's mouth, put it into his mouth and sucked on it, "As long as you like it, I will always cook it for you."
"good."
A few days later, Leng Ling received a call from Leng Xiao. Lien's performance in the war was unanimously recognized by the House of Representatives and the House of Elders, and they were asked to return to Sarat immediately to hold the knight's canonization ceremony.
