The base was huge, and Huo Sanyan was brought into one of the tents that was set up there. She was tied to the chair as two soldiers watched her while one other went to inform their commanding officer.
Not long after came a company commander.
âWhereâs the spy?â the commander asked.
âHeâs in there,â the soldier replied as he pointed at the tent Huo Sanyan was in.
The commander, named Gu, nodded and went into the tent.
He looked at the so-called spy and started the interrogation.
âYou better tell us the truth! What are you doing here?â
âPlease, sir, itâs all a mistake. Iâm not a spy, Iâm a reporter. You can check my ID!â
Huo Sanyan tried to explain.
The commander nodded at one of the soldiers, telling him to look for her ID card. The soldier searched Huo Sanyan and was surprised when Huo Sanyan felt soft to touch.
The soldier took out the ID card from Huo Sanyanâs chest pocket and handed it to the commander while whispering something.
Commander Gu was surprised to learn what was told to him and threw the ID on the table.
âThis is a fake ID! Whatâs your intention?â Commander Gu scolded.
â...â
The soldier mustâve accidentally touched Huo Sanyanâs chest when he was looking for her ID and instantly found out that the person that was tied to the chair was actually a woman.
Seeing that Huo Sanyan wasnât going to reply, Commander Gu ordered, âExecute her!â
âYes, sir!â both soldiers that were guarding Huo Sanyan immediately replied.
âWait! I really am not a spy!â Huo Sanyan shouted. âIâm here to look for someone!â
âWho?â
âYe Xun!â
All that were present were surprised to hear their Generalâs name. More so, they were surprised that the person could call the General by his full name.
âIâll give you one last chance. Whatâs your relationship with the General?â Commander Gu asked.
âI... Iâm his lover!â
âBullshit! Our General isnât even married yet! Take her away!â
Commander Gu scolded her, as what Huo Sanyan said sounded too absurd.
âNo! I mean, Iâm his girlfriend! My name is Huo Sanyan! Ask him! If he says he doesnât know me, then you can do whatever you want!â
Huo Sanyanâs words stunned Commander Gu as he remembered that the General did have a girlfriend, and her name started with Huo. The only thing he wasnât sure about was whether the woman who was pretending to be a man was that girlfriend or not.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The commander had to make sure that he didnât accidentally kill the Generalâs girlfriend. He ordered the soldiers to continue monitoring Huo Sanyan while he went to look for Ye Xun.
Ye Xun was in the main tent, discussing the defense line with other commanders.
âSir, Commander Gu said he has something to report!â a soldier came in and reported.
âDidnât I say no interruptions?â Ye Xun scolded.
âMy apologies, sir, but he said it was urgent...â
âLet him in!â
âSir!â
Commander Gu came in not long after the soldier had left.
âWhatâs wrong?â Ye Xun asked with his arms folded.
âSir, we caught a suspicious person lurking around our base. When we interrogated said person, we found out that she was pretending to be a man, and she said sheâs...â
