Chapter 306 Asking for something but not getting it
Fu Baili continued, "Dr. Liang kept pressing us about the treatment methods we used, so I just spat it out! Each legion has its own research department, and the research projects are exclusive to them. Why should we contribute? He's gone mad!"
Yan San's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said with his eyes half closed, "Aren't they just crazy? The huge headquarters is in Han Yuanzheng's palm... In recent years, the headquarters has become more and more reckless in its actions."
"You had to keep a low profile before because of your inexplicable illness, but now that's all right, with Xi Yu's mysterious potion, you're fine!" Fu Baili snorted. They had always had to keep a low profile, which was why the Han family was so rampant!
But things are different now. The marshal is in good health, and their First Legion controls mecha technology and energy weapons. With so many advantages, they are not afraid to confront headquarters.
Yan San's lowered eyes flickered slightly.
Fu Baili and Dr. Qi both thought that his symptoms had been relieved by Xi Yu's medicine, but in fact Xi Yu had used other methods to help him control them. He does rarely have flare-ups now, but the root cause of the disease has not been eradicated.
It's like a dud bomb, you never know when it will explode.
“Commander Situ of the Sixth Legion will be coming to the research institute tomorrow to discuss the matter of the mutated insects with us. I don’t want the people at headquarters to know about this,” Yan San said with his eyes closed.
Fu Baili immediately agreed: "I understand, I will arrange it, don't worry."
This is the first cooperation between the two legions since Yan San succeeded as marshal, and it is of great significance to them.
"By the way, now that Qinglan is back, you shouldn't send her away again. It would be such a waste not to let such a talented person use her strength in the legion." Yan San suddenly changed the subject to Mo Qinglan.
Fu Baili shifted his body, somewhat uncomfortably, and said, "What do you mean by 'wasteful'? The tasks I assigned her were all very important!"
“Those things don’t necessarily have to be done by Qinglan, do they?” Yan San frowned and saw through his thoughts, then solemnly warned, “She has been by your side for eight years. No matter what your feelings for her are, you should give her a clear answer.”
Fu Baili wiped his face with his hand, then scratched his hair in frustration.
He wasn't a blockhead like Yan San; of course he noticed Mo Qinglan's little feelings for him. However, he couldn't reciprocate those feelings, and since Mo Qinglan had never said anything, he couldn't just rashly reject her.
But when faced with Mo Qinglan's cautious and ingratiating gaze, he would instinctively look away.
"Some things can't be forced, whether it's for Qinglan or for the person in your heart," Yan San said finally, patted Fu Baili on the shoulder, and got up to leave.
After Yan San left, the command room was so quiet that there wasn't a sound.
Fu Baili leaned back on the sofa, his head tilted back, and the beautiful image of her seemed to appear before his eyes. She was someone he could never reach.
Yan San, standing outside the door, sighed softly. As Fu Baili's closest friend, he knew, of course, who Fu Baili loved, but it was someone he could never hope to meet.
How tragic it is to desire something but not obtain it.
Mo Qinglan spent eight years trying to win back her love, but who knew that Fu Baili spent twelve years trying to make the woman in his heart turn back to him? Only they themselves knew the bitterness they had endured.
