Chi Xia turned to look at Han Junche and saw that his face was ashen. She subconsciously ran to the side and stood in a row next to Chunli and Wang Dalong. She put her hands down and clasped them together, and hung her head, maintaining the same posture as Wang Dalong and the others.
However, she didn't know that at this moment, she was soaked in sweat, and the large sweat stains on her clothes stung Han Junche's eyes.
Han Junche closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and then opened them again. He turned to Jia Li and said, "Uncle Jia, rules are rigid, but people are flexible. I think that with Chi Xia's level eight ability, the base should trust her. Three tons of supplies are just a matter of time."
Jia Li chuckled, but didn't budge: "That makes sense, but it's not good to set a precedent. Look, we've almost moved half of it. Why don't we just move it all at once? That way, it won't break the rules."
Han Junche remained silent, his eyes cold.
Jia Jing, standing to the side, looked at him and her expression softened unconsciously: "Ache, we are only doing this for the sake of the base's management. We are not deliberately making things difficult for Miss Chi. Why don't we wait a little longer? There's not much time left anyway."
Upon hearing the name A-Che, Chi Xia suddenly looked up. She had clearly made a promise with him that, apart from his parents, only she could call him A-Che; it was a name that belonged exclusively to her.
But now, another woman is calling him A-Che affectionately in front of him.
Chi Xia looked at Han Junche, her face turning cold for the first time, and also calling him by his full name for the first time: "Han Junche!"
Her voice clearly contained anger, and even disappointment and a hint of heartache, which made Han Junche's heart clench.
However, even without the last clause of the three-point agreement, now is not a good time for him to explain.
Han Junche frowned, looked at Jia Li, and said coldly, "Is it really impossible to make an exception?"
Jia Li did not answer, but his attitude spoke volumes.
Jia Jing, standing nearby, spoke up: "A-Che, Dad is doing this for the sake of the base's management. If everyone makes an exception, then..."
"Did I ask you?" Han Junche glanced at her coldly, interrupting her. "Also, I think I've said it many times already, please call me Han Junche or Captain Han."
This was the first time Han Junche had refuted Jia Jing's calling him A-Che in front of so many people. Although he had said it to her before, he had always been mindful of her reputation as the manager of the base and had never refuted her in public.
Jia Jing's face froze instantly. She couldn't believe her eyes and looked at him with hurt and astonishment.
However, Han Junche didn't care about her current mood. He simply turned to Chi Xia and said, "Come here."
His voice was noticeably gentler than when he spoke to Jia Jing and Jia Li before.
Chi Xia was still a little angry. Although he had just refuted Jia Jing, it was clear that this wasn't the first time Jia Jing had called him that.
Unseen by her, a woman called his name "A-Che" countless times, which infuriated Chi Xia!
She glared at Han Junche fiercely, snorted coldly, and instead of going over, she turned her head to the side, angrily refusing to look at him!
"Come here," Han Junche called again, his voice gentler than before.
Chi Xia glanced at him sideways, snorted, and then turned her head away again, still ignoring him.
Seeing her like this, Han Junche's face instantly darkened.
Wang Dalong, Wang Erlong, Zhuo Fang, Xu Fan, Liu Daniu, and Chunli looked at Chi Xia again and again, then wiped the sweat from their foreheads in unison.
Han Junche looked at Chi Xia and said coldly, "If you don't want me to never speak to you again, come here now!"
"Okay!"
Upon hearing this, Chi Xia's expression instantly changed. She shamelessly flashed a smile at Han Junche and scurried over to his side, saying, "I'm here. Aren't you a good girl?"
