"Your analysis was indeed correct."
After listening to his analysis, Cheng Xinghan smiled and said, "It seems that although I am old, my vision is still as sharp as ever."
You are indeed meticulous, much better than those ordinary soldiers who only know how to bury themselves in training.
His voice was filled with pride and smugness.
It's both praising Lin Fan and praising himself!
"Mr. Cheng, please don't flatter me to death."
Lin Fan quickly replied.
He dared not take advantage of the favor he received!
Old Master Cheng was a commander, a military figure forged in the crucible of war!
What kind of outstanding people hasn't such a big shot seen?
That's just polite talk.
"Xiao Lin, I really didn't mean to flatter you to death!"
"If you had served under me, you would be a lieutenant colonel by now."
Cheng Xinghan glanced at him. "Xiao Lin, you really have no interest in joining the mixed squad?"
“Mr. Cheng, I really cannot comply.”
Lin Fan gave a wry smile and said, "Because I haven't achieved my current goal yet."
“I can sense that you are a powerful dragon.”
"Since it is a powerful dragon, it should have its own sky to soar in!"
"If you can join, this mixed team will be even more powerful, achieving complete perfection in every aspect!"
Cheng Xinghan's eyes were burning with determination; he clearly hadn't given up on persuading Lin Fan.
"I……"
Lin Fan considered carefully how to refuse.
"Don't rush to refuse."
Cheng Xinghan suddenly looked serious and pulled his chair closer. “Xiao Lin, you are a doctor now, so of course I can understand your ideals and ambitions in your career.”
However, the difficulty of building such an unprecedented high-caliber mixed team is unimaginable.
A top-tier all-rounder like you, with your agility, courage, resourcefulness, and medical expertise, is exactly the kind of talent we urgently need.
He paused for a moment before continuing.
"The current international situation is complex and volatile. We are surrounded by powerful nations that are eyeing us covetously, and various overt and covert attacks have never stopped."
"We formed this team to forge a sharp blade."
"This sharp knife can defend national sovereignty, protect the people, and keep all enemies out of the country."
"Those foreign enemies will never dare to invade our land even a step!"
Cheng Xinghan's voice was as loud as a bell, resounding and enlightening!
Towards the end of his speech, he became more impassioned and passionate.
Seeing his graying temples and expectant eyes, Lin Fan was also moved.
"If that day ever comes, I will join without hesitation."
Lin Fan took a deep breath and said.
"Good lad, I knew I wasn't wrong!"
"I will definitely save this spot for you!"
Cheng Xinghan didn't hear a definite reply, but he was already satisfied with just those words.
At least, Lin Fan is the kind of person who deeply understands the greater good of the nation.
"I mean what I say!"
Lin Fan nodded solemnly and looked at the sky outside the door. "Grandpa Cheng, it's getting late, so I'll take my leave now."
"Where are you going so late at night?"
Cheng Xinghan smiled and said.
"Of course, we'll go back to the Army General Hospital."
Lin Fan answered subconsciously.
"Xiao Lin, there are no cars here that dare to take you to the hospital at night."
"Moreover, Xiao Wu had been drinking and is not able to drive."
Cheng Xinghan thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you can stay here with me."
"Isn't this a bit inconvenient?"
Lin Fan said with some difficulty.
"What's inconvenient about it? You're being too polite with me."
Cheng Xinghan said with a stern face.
"Alright, then I'll gladly accept your offer!"
Cheng Xinghan called out into the room, "Wang Ma, make arrangements for Xiao Lin."
"They're here."
A nanny in her fifties came over and said with a smile, "Mr. Lin, please come upstairs with me."
"Grandpa, you should get some rest."
Lin Fan greeted them and then followed Wang Ma upstairs.
"Mr. Lin, this is your room for tonight."
"There is a shower room and a toilet inside."
"You can call me if you need anything."
Aunt Wang pointed to a room.
"What is this room for?"
Lin Fan glanced inside; it didn't look like a guest room, but rather like a place that had been occupied for a long time.
"This is Miss Ruonan's room."
Wang Ma replied with a smile, "The old man always tells me to clean every day, so that Miss can stay anytime she comes back!"
Mr. Lin, please get some rest. Call me if you need anything!
"Thank you, Aunt Wang!"
After listening, Lin Fan went into the room.
The room layout was very simple, lacking the romantic feel one would expect from a girl's room.
There were no dolls or dressing table, let alone cosmetics.
The bookshelf next to the bedside table is filled with all kinds of books, including many military theories, world maps, and world histories.
There's even a separate floor dedicated to professional papers on fighting techniques.
There was even a sandbag placed by the window.
Rows of certificates and medals hang on the wall.
Excellent student, outstanding class leader, eighth women's combat champion of the military region...
"I knew she was good, but I didn't realize she was this good."
Lin Fan's eyes suddenly caught sight of a photo frame on the desk.
The photo shows two smiling young girls.
Cheng Ruonan looked dashing and full of youthful vigor.
The girls around her were equally impressive, and even surpassed her in terms of temperament.
