Chapter 142 Zhang Yan's Obsession (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Shen Jiang's eyes were filled with ecstasy; this new type of explosive was fantastic.
Xu Qingmo actually made things by hand that he could never have imagined in his wildest dreams.
Xu Qingmo felt uncomfortable under his gaze and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Why are you staring at me like that?"
"MoMo, you're amazing! This new type of explosive will be a huge help to our future military operations. You're our hope!" Shen Jiang said emotionally, earnestly expressing his thoughts.
Xu Qingmo scratched her head awkwardly, wondering why she had such a big reaction to something she had just done casually.
Moreover, the things she made were only used as fireworks for children to play with on Earth.
"Dad, you're exaggerating. I'm embarrassed."
"No, no, no, I'm not exaggerating at all. These are all heartfelt expressions. You wait, I will report these things and you will definitely receive the best reward." Shen Jiang felt that his daughter was amazing.
Many people had previously mocked him behind his back for marrying a divorced woman. Although he didn't care, he worried that such words would eventually reach the ears of Wang Jing and Xu Qingmo.
He must use this opportunity to thoroughly humiliate those who gossip behind his back.
"Actually, it's not necessary..." Xu Qingmo wasn't interested in these virtual things.
Wang Jing squatted down in front of her, picked her up, and gently touched the tip of her nose with her fingers.
"Our Momo is so outstanding, why not let more people know about her?" Wang Jing stood firmly on Shenjiang's side this time.
Seeing how determined the two of them were, Xu Qingmo didn't say anything more.
She agreed to almost everything they said.
All the items were already in the car, and Wang Jing and Shen Jiang drove away separately.
The three people first transported the items to headquarters. Shen Jiang handed the items over to the people above and explained that Xu Qingmo had developed a new explosive with a long range, requiring very little gunpowder, but with greater explosive energy.
Many people believe that Shen Jiang said these words on purpose because he loves his daughter too much.
Shen Jiang could see through their thoughts, so without much explanation, he simply called his men to the base to demonstrate.
Many eyes are fixed on this newly developed explosive.
It wasn't until Shenjiang pressed the remote control in his hand that the huge sound and the extent of the explosion nearly made the onlookers' jaws drop.
Shen Jiang held Xu Qingmo in his arms, looking smug, even happier than when he received the second-class merit award.
The people around were stunned for a while before they reacted.
They patted their faces and pinched their legs. Ouch!
It's actually true.
"Commander Shen, this newly developed explosive is amazing! How exactly is it made?" someone couldn't help but ask curiously.
Shen Jiang proudly introduced the person in his arms, "My daughter, Xu Qingmo, made this by hand."
"Her?" Many people still looked incredulous.
Some people were even suspicious and said, "Commander Shen, we know you like this daughter very much, but you can't just play with her like this. She's only five years old. At this age, she should be playing in the mud on the ground."
“Your children playing in the mud doesn’t mean all children are as carefree as yours. My daughter is very capable; I, as her father, am not necessarily better than her.”
Shen Jiang has been the top soldier for several consecutive years and has participated in many battles, possessing rich strength and combat experience.
This was the first time many people had heard Shen Jiang be so modest.
"Commander Shen, is your daughter really that amazing?" someone asked, still skeptical. "You can't just convince everyone here with a few words. Why don't you have your daughter demonstrate a few skills for us?"
Before Shen Jiang could speak, Xu Qingmo asked impatiently, "How do we demonstrate it?"
The other party had a sudden inspiration: "We'll do whatever you want because you're young. As long as you demonstrate convincing abilities, no one here will doubt anything anymore."
Xu Qingmo said, "Whether I have the ability or not, the development of this new type of explosive is a contribution. You are not happy about this, but instead you make things difficult for me at every turn. What are you up to?"
"The word 'making things difficult' is too harsh. I just wanted to broaden my horizons, is that not allowed?"
Xu Qingmo struggled to get down from Shen Jiang's arms and land on the ground. She was small, but she was not afraid at all.
Many people actually saw the oppressive aura of a superior in her.
Xu Qingmo beckoned to the other person, "I heard that you always lose to my dad when it comes to competing for the King of Soldiers title. I can fight you once. If I lose to you, I'll make sure my dad doesn't participate in next year's King of Soldiers competition. What do you think?"
Zhang Yan felt conflicted after being told such things by a five-year-old girl.
Before he met Shen Jiang, he always thought he was the most powerful person.
After joining the army, he always wanted to shine.
Unfortunately, he encountered an even more formidable opponent, Shen Jiang, and was defeated by him every time, thus missing out on the title of King of Soldiers.
Zhang Yan's breath remained stuck in his throat, unable to be swallowed or exhaled.
He has always wanted to win the title of "King of Soldiers," and it has become an obsession for him.
Zhang Yan looked at Shen Jiang, "Is what your daughter said true?"
"My daughter won't lose," Shen Jiang said confidently.
He knew very well that Xu Qingmo's abilities were no less than his own, and perhaps even stronger.
But Zhang Yan didn't know this, and even felt that Shen Jiang looked down on him.
“Shenjiang, that’s enough. I admit you’re very capable, but your daughter is still young and definitely no match for me,” Zhang Yan said confidently.
Before Shen Jiang could speak, the people around him began to murmur amongst themselves.
"Zhang Yan, you're pretty cunning. You knew the girl was young, yet you still challenged her. Aren't you ashamed?"
"Zhang Yan has always wanted to win the title of King of Soldiers, he dreams of it."
"But we can't let the water level in the river drop so badly."
"Alright, you're all happy to watch the show for free?" Zhang Yan told them to shut up.
Xu Qingmo turned to Shen Jiang and said, "Dad, please agree."
"Since my daughter has already spoken, I won't say much. If my daughter really loses to you, Zhang Yan, I won't participate in next year's King of Soldiers selection."
Hearing Shen Jiang's words, Zhang Yan beamed with joy.
His biggest competitor won't participate, so he's sure to win the title of "King of Soldiers" next year.
"Everyone heard it too, Shen Jiang said it himself, that if Xu Qingmo loses to me, he won't participate in the King of Soldiers selection competition next year." Zhang Yan said this deliberately, just to have others be his witnesses.
Many people shook their heads speechlessly, but Zhang Yan didn't care about any of that.
As long as he gets what he wants, it's all worth it.
Xu Qingmo countered, "You've already heard the news you wanted, so tell me, if you lose, what bet will you make?"
Zhang Yan knew he would never lose, so he never thought about what his bet was from the very beginning.
