Rejecting Qinghua Baoyan, I became a military officer

Chapter 769 Are you not going to give me a car?

Chapter 769 Are you not going to give me a car?
"Who's coming?"

In the living room, Han Ziqing, who was lying in Xu Ye's arms, heard the doorbell ring and asked curiously.

"Old Company Commander."

Xu Ye helped her up and stood up, saying, "Oh, right, I have a surprise for you later!"

"surprise?"

"What?!"

Han Ziqing stood up as well, her curiosity growing.

Could this surprise be related to Gao Jianjun?
"Stop guessing, you'll find out soon enough," Xu Ye said, keeping everyone in suspense.

He had already modified the courtyard gate to be remotely controlled, but since Gao Jianjun was coming, he naturally had to go to the gate to greet him; that much courtesy was still necessary.

"Xu Ye, you little rascal! Oh, Xiao Han's here too!"

As soon as Xu Ye opened the door, Gao Jianjun came up and started shouting loudly. Then, seeing Han Ziqing following behind, he quickly changed his tone, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Brother Gao, it's alright, just tell me. I'm also curious about what Xu Ye's surprise is."

Han Ziqing shook her head and said with a smile.

Seeing this, Gao Jianjun glanced at Xu Ye almost imperceptibly, and only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him nod slightly.

As long as you can speak!

He was afraid of accidentally revealing something and making everyone feel awkward.

"Actually, it's nothing. Someone sent Xu Ye some gifts from abroad, and he asked me to come and pick them up," Gao Jianjun explained.

Indeed, all Gao Jianjun knew from the Sixth Steel Company was what Xu Ye had sent over.

However, Gao Jianjun had no idea what Xu Ye had kept for himself.

Therefore, to avoid saying the wrong thing, it's better to be vague.

"Sent from abroad? By a foreigner?"

Han Ziqing keenly noticed the key words and quickly realized, "Xu Ye, you went abroad on a mission?"

At this moment, Han Ziqing's face was filled with worry and tension.

Xu Ye had never told him about his special identity, and Han Ziqing had never asked him about it.

However, this does not mean that Han Ziqing was unaware of it.

After all, her family situation is what it is; how could she not know anything about it?
However, both sides tacitly refrained from mentioning it.

Since Han Ziqing had chosen Xu Ye, she couldn't expect him to become the person she wanted him to be.

Regardless of whether Xu Ye can actually do it, even if he were truly willing, would that still be the Xu Ye she loves?
Therefore, Han Ziqing never said anything.

However, this does not mean that Han Ziqing is not worried. Every time Xu Ye "goes missing", it is impossible for Han Ziqing not to worry.

Ironically, Xu Ye had been "out of contact" for a period of time before the Lunar New Year.

If nothing unexpected happens, then he should be going abroad to carry out a mission.

"Ziqing, you can't tell!"

Meeting her concerned and worried gaze, Xu Ye shook his head slightly.

Even within the General Staff, only a very small number of people knew about the previous mission.

As for Li Kenan, who can guess most of the details on his own, that's an exception.

“Yes, Xiao Han, the military has confidentiality regulations. We absolutely cannot say what we cannot say, except for our parents and wives,” Gao Jianjun chimed in.

For a moment, Gao Jianjun regretted that he had come at the wrong time.

"I'm sorry, I forgot about that!" Han Ziqing said hurriedly, feeling embarrassed.

She naturally knew these things.

However, this time, I was so concerned that I overlooked this point.

"It's okay, I know."

Xu Ye smiled slightly, "However, just keep it to yourself, don't tell anyone else!"

Strictly speaking, Han Ziqing could be considered one of Xu Ye's "exposed" points.

Xu Ye made up his mind that he would have to mention it to the General Staff Chief when he had the chance, so that he would keep in touch with Han Ziqing when he went on missions in the future, and not let people infer that he had gone on a mission because he was "out of contact".

Xu Ye wasn't worried about himself, but rather that Han Ziqing might be in some danger.

Fortunately, this is the Dragon Kingdom, and the capital city where Han Ziqing stays is very safe.

"Yeah, I promise!"

Han Ziqing quickly assured her.

Nodding, Xu Ye smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Weren't you all curious?"

"Come on, the answer will be revealed soon!"

With that, Xu Ye turned and walked towards the garage.

Seeing the direction Xu Ye walked in, not only Gao Jianjun and Han Ziqing had their own guesses.

Do you deliver a car?
"Dang-dang-dang!"

Xu Ye smiled and opened the car door, then started playing background music!

"A Hummer?! And a military one at that?"

"Ferrari?!"

Sure enough, men and women have very different focuses. At this moment, Gao Jianjun's eyes were completely filled with the majestic and imposing black Hummer.

Han Ziqing's gaze was firmly drawn to the black Ferrari Enzo, and she rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things.

Of course, there was more shock and confusion than any joy or delight on their faces.

Given her status, if she really wanted to, what luxury car couldn't she drive?
However, firstly, she wasn't the kind of spoiled brat, and secondly, her interest in luxury cars was limited to simply learning about them; that was about it.

Now, when a globally limited edition Ferrari appeared in Xu Ye's garage, Han Ziqing's expression became somewhat serious after the initial surprise.

She certainly didn't want Xu Ye to make a mistake.

It's not that she doesn't trust her, but she knows that some people will stop at nothing to drag you down with them.

Ignoring Gao Jianjun, who had already gone over to help, Han Ziqing walked up to Xu Ye and asked with some concern, "Xu Ye, were these two cars also a gift?"

Previously, Gao Jianjun had told him to come and pick up some things, but this car was clearly not included.

"Ok!"

Xu Ye nodded, then added, "Don't worry, I was specifically instructed by my superiors to accept it and not make a mistake."

"Oh, all right!"

Han Ziqing breathed a slight sigh of relief, but her brows still didn't completely relax.

The fact that such a valuable gift was sent from abroad suggests just how dangerous the mission Xu Ye had been on was.

Unlike many people today who yearn for foreign countries and are filled with all sorts of beautiful illusions, Han Ziqing is keenly aware that the vast majority of foreigners are driven by self-interest.

The fact that the thank-you gift was so generous shows that Xu Ye must have brought even greater benefits to the other party.

It must be said that Han Ziqing's ability to "demystify" foreign cultures in this era is truly remarkable.

You should know that when Xu Ye time-traveled, many people were still kneeling!
"It's alright, I know what I'm doing!" Xu Ye said with a smile, squeezing her hand slightly.

"Ok, I know."

Han Ziqing took a breath, raised her head, and looked into Xu Ye's eyes.

"Let's go check out the car!"

Nodding, Xu Ye took Han Ziqing's hand and walked towards the Ferrari.

"Take a look, see if you like it. If you do, we'll drive straight to the capital!"

"It's too high-profile, let's not do it!" Han Ziqing shook her head slightly.

She knew that Xu Ye wasn't just saying that casually; if she nodded, the multi-million dollar supercar would definitely be hers.

That's right, it's worth tens of millions!
As a journalist, although she has now switched to military reporting, her knowledge is still very broad, and Han Ziqing is also familiar with this sports car.

This car cost as much as $65 when it was first sold overseas, and this particular one is a customized version, so the price is even higher.

Not to mention, if imported into China, various taxes and fees will be levied that are even more expensive than the car itself. Saying it's worth tens of millions is an understatement.

However, what Han Ziqing didn't know was that this car was exempt from those taxes and fees.

Of course, being a specially customized model, its value is already in the tens of millions of Dragon Yuan.

A custom model from the Saddam family, how could it be cheap? I just wonder which of Saddam's sons this car originally belonged to, and now Saddam has given it to me. I wonder if he'll have any objections.

It's highly unlikely!
After all, for these kinds of people, this car is just a slightly more expensive toy.

“However, we can’t leave it here forever. Why don’t you take it to the army?” Han Ziqing suggested.

Han Ziqing knew that Xu Ye had set up some security measures for this house, but she still didn't feel very reliable.

If no one is living here for a long time, it's too dangerous to leave such an expensive car here.

"Really not?"

Xu Ye didn't answer, and asked again.

"Really, no, I already have a car to drive."

"Besides, if I go to CCTV, the place I stay is nearby, and I don't usually drive much."

Han Ziqing glanced at the car, then looked into Xu Ye's eyes to show that she wasn't just being polite.

Even though it's a bit flashy, Xu Ye can drive this car without any problems.

The authorities have vouched for it!
However, if one were to open a business on their own, any of the factors—whether family background, being a university student, or working for CCTV—would cause considerable trouble if exposed.

Although, it won't have any negative impact.

But ultimately, it has a negative impact and is quite troublesome, isn't it?

"In that case, let's get it to the base!"

Seeing that she wasn't just being polite, Xu Ye went along with it.

Xu Ye didn't explain to Han Ziqing how powerful his security system was, and that even with it here, he wasn't afraid of attracting thieves.

To be honest, during the period when no one lived there, a few groups of thieves did come, but they were quickly arrested by the police who followed them.

It's normal. Theft is still a very common profession now, and it will gradually decrease once electronic payments become widespread.

However, it's impossible for it to be completely absent; it's still a very common situation now.

After being caught like this a few times, no one dared to mess with this place anymore.

"Okay, it's up to you!"

Han Ziqing was very happy to see that Xu Ye had listened to her opinion.

"How about I take you for a drive later?" Xu Ye suggested.

Last night, although Xu Ye did not agree to Station Chief Zhao's suggestion to put a military license plate on him, he did not refuse the two temporary military license plates that Station Chief Zhao arranged.

Han Ziqing was somewhat tempted by Xu Ye's suggestion.

It wasn't the luxury car that excited me, but the drive and ride with Xu Ye.

"Take this with you!"

As he spoke, Xu Ye wiped his body and a pair of sunglasses that could cover half of his face appeared in his hand.

"Then I'll reluctantly agree!"

Han Ziqing took the sunglasses with some surprise, raised her head slightly, revealing her swan-like white neck, and said with a hint of pride.

"It's a great honor!"

Xu Ye gracefully gestured for them to enter, and at the same time, the butterfly door slowly opened.

Hearing the noise, Gao Jianjun, who was about to open the car door and get in, finally looked away from the Hummer and looked over.

"No, Xu Ye, are you going for a drive with that fancy car and beautiful women?" Gao Jianjun joked.

"Of course, you decide what to do!"

As Xu Ye spoke, he tossed the Hummer keys over and turned to get into the Ferrari.

After Han Ziqing was seated, the beautiful butterfly doors slowly closed, and accompanied by the roar of the V12 engine, it slowly drove out of the garage.

As the engine sound faded into the distance, Gao Jianjun glanced at the car keys in his hand, then opened the Hummer's door, rubbed it for a moment, and the car started smoothly.

However, after revving the engine a few times, Gao Jianjun eventually turned it off and didn't drive it away.

On the surface, Gao Jianjun explained that he was just looking after Xu Ye's house.

However, Gao Jianjun lacked confidence; the car was like a wild horse, and he was afraid of scratching or bumping it at Xu Ye.

This is bad, especially during the Lunar New Year!
Well, another problem is that it's too expensive.

Fortunately, Gao Jianjun wasn't kept waiting long. More than half an hour later, when Gao Jianjun was still in the garage, the sound of the Ferrari engine grew louder as it approached.

"So fast?"

Gao Jianjun was somewhat surprised.

However, considering their personalities, Gao Jianjun felt relieved; he was already somewhat surprised that they had managed to go this far.

"Company commander, why didn't you give it a try?"

After parking the car, Xu Ye got out and looked at the Hummer, which hadn't moved, with some surprise.

"No need, just looking at it is fine." Gao Jianjun waved his hand.

Gao Jianjun was also afraid that if he really got involved, he wouldn't even want that "broken car" when he got back.

"what ever!"

Xu Ye didn't say anything.

Anyway, it's not like I didn't give it to him. If the company commander doesn't want it, he can't force him, right?

"By the way, you asked me to get something, not to give me a car, right?"

As Gao Jianjun spoke, he got off the Hummer and tossed the car keys over.
