My Stunning Beauty Special Agent Wife-Chapter 845 - 844: Rank (1/2)

Morning.

Man-made sea.

Someone noticed that the flag was lowered halfway.

Does that mean an important person has passed away?

But there was no news.

At this moment, a special flight landed at Jin Chen Airport.

All the red elements at the airport were removed, making the atmosphere solemn and respectful.

Beside the parking apron, a group of people was waiting.

Before the passengers got off the plane, a group of people walked onto the plane.

Yang Chen opened his eyes and looked at the newcomers.

These people were dressed in Guard uniforms, with solemn expressions.

"Salute!"

The group saluted Yang Chen, showing great respect.

Yang Chen frowned slightly and responded to a few of them.

One person held something, raised it, and placed it in front of Yang Chen.

Another person said solemnly: "Please change into the Captain's uniform!"

As he spoke, that person pulled off the white cloth on the tray, revealing the Guard uniform beneath.

On the Guard uniform, there were two shoulder epaulettes.

However, the rank was no longer one-star Captain, but two-star!

Yang Chen once again refreshed the record for the youngest two-star Captain.

"A two-star Captain!" Mastiff looked at the rank, thrilled, feeling happy for Yang Chen.

Yang Chen's brow was tightly furrowed, staring at the rank without reacting.

Wei Xueqing was very surprised upon hearing it was a two-star Captain, she didn't expect Yang Chen to have such a high rank.

"Quickly take it!" Wei Xueqing urged.

She didn't want Yang Chen to miss such a good opportunity.

One must know, there are so few Captains in the entire Flame Country!

Moreover, Yang Chen became a two-star Captain at such a young age, with unlimited future prospects!

Chen Siyan looked anxious, stepping forward: "I'll hold it for my brother!"

Saying that, Chen Siyan prepared to take the tray.

The person hesitated a bit, ready to hand the tray over to Chen Siyan.

"Wait a minute!" Yang Chen suddenly said.

Everyone paused, looking at Yang Chen.

Yang Chen pulled Chen Siyan back and said solemnly: "Leave the Guard uniform, take away the rank!"

Hearing this, the crowd was perplexed.

This is a two-star Captain!

How can one refuse?

"Boss!" Mastiff said worriedly, "This is a two-star Captain!"

"Yes, boss!" Zhou Botao, who had been silent, couldn't help but say: "Isn't this our dream?"

Yang Chen shook his head, looking at the two: "Perhaps this was our initial dream; when we first joined the Guard, we thought about becoming a Captain. There's also a saying that's quite apt—those who don't want to be a Captain aren't good Guards. But perhaps, from the start, I was never a good Guard! I've never said I wanted to be a Captain; what I wanted was to protect my country, safeguard the dignity of the motherland! However, now, what I want more is to be with my family and brothers, not stepping over their blood and corpses to ascend to higher ranks! No rank can compare to the life of a brother; no authority can command fallen brothers to stand up again! So, no rank means anything to me; I've already resigned from the Guard, so I can wear the Guard uniform because I have served as a Guard, and for my lifetime, I have the right to wear this Guard uniform. But as for rank... I will never wear it again! So, take it away!"

The crowd fell silent upon hearing his words.

Isn't the meaning of life in striving for higher goals?

That's right! Yes, it is!

But is it really correct?

Not necessarily!

Imagine when you reach higher and look far away, the view is infinite, but when you look back, you find no one beside you.

No matter how good the scenery is before you, who will appreciate it with you?

Since ancient times, emperors have been lonely.

Ask why so many talented individuals ultimately choose beauty over the throne.

It's because they've seen through it, realizing your companion is not the land you bury underfoot, but the lover by your side. Whether it's pain or hardship, it's the one who bears it with you.

For Guards, is the truly memorable thing the days of marching in the Guard?

No!

But those brothers who accompany you through tough times!

On the battlefield, what is most precious?

It's those brothers you can trust with your back!

Without them, no matter how strong you are, battling hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands, what's the point?

No one can conquer the world alone.

What you rely on are those brothers behind you!

No matter how good the world is, no rank can compare to those brothers who endure, laugh, and share joy with you.

When there's wine, drink heartily.

When there's a blade, fight!

Without these, what's the point of two shoulder epaulettes and several ranks in exchange for a life?

Mastiff's eyes were warm, trying hard to control his emotions, but two lines of tears still streamed down.

He tightened his lips, nodded, and said solemnly: "I understand!"

He understood Yang Chen's meaning.

They cannot accept this rank!

Zhou Botao's eyes widened, pupils contracted, deeply moved.

Although he hasn't spent much time with Yang Chen, he's always been proud and ruthless, thinking that war is about killing!

But now he realized that fighting is to better find those important to you; battlefields are not for slaughter but for saving, saving those brothers who fight alongside you!

"Leave the Guard uniform, take away the rank!" Sun Yue sighed deeply and said to a few people.

She felt deeply moved.

Finally understanding why Yang Chen could attract Ye Xin.

For such a person, he's indeed enough to attract many people.

Such charm is matched only by Ye Xin.

The Guard members looked embarrassed.

This was the mission assigned to them by their superiors; taking the rank back empty-handed like this surely wouldn't pass!

Though they felt deeply moved by Yang Chen's words, they hadn't experienced combat, and didn't understand that feeling.

For them, the most important thing is still the mission.

Besides, who can refuse a rank of Major General; that's a Major General!

Yang Chen looked at them, understanding their intention, and said solemnly: "Go back, tell the high authorities that I can't take the rank because I've resigned from the Guard."

"But…" The leading Guard member looked troubled.

"Go back!" Yang Chen said solemnly.

"Leave behind what should stay, take away what should be taken, and leave immediately!" Mastiff immediately said solemnly.

It was already six-thirty, and time could not be wasted.

Feeling Mastiff's presence, they dared not linger, took the rank, and saluted Yang Chen respectfully.

Whether Yang Chen accepted the rank or not, he was worthy of the two-star Captain, deserving respect!

After they exited, Yang Chen said to a few people: "You guys go out too, I'll change clothes!"

"Yes!" Mastiff nodded, looking at Chen Siyan and the others.

The three women naturally wouldn't stay, and they all left.

After they went out, Yang Chen began removing his upper garment, taking out the Guard uniform, and carefully putting it on.
