Chapter 1288 : The Great Temptation

• "It's not so much fear as it is respect and admiration for my seniors and superiors," the middle-aged man said. "Although he is not my direct superior, he has been my mentor, and I believe in showing respect. However..."
• The middle-aged man's gaze shifted back to Lu Yanxi, and he continued, "Talented individuals like you are highly sought after. I must say, Comrade Yanxi, you are truly exceptional. I can see the potential in you, and if we can successfully recruit you, even if it means offending our old leader, it wouldn't matter. I can personally apologize to him and have a drink with him."
• After saying that, the middle-aged man looked at Lu Yanxi again and said earnestly, "So, Comrade Yanxi, what do you think? I've said a lot, but would you consider joining our 36th Division? You can start as a platoon leader and if you perform well, I can promote you to deputy company commander in a couple of years. And with your abilities, if you continue to work hard, you might even climb up the ranks and take over my position in the future."
