Wang Ye snapped back to reality and realized that he was standing in front of a large tent.

“What are you looking at?” Wang Jianjun, from the small town where Wang Ye’s hometown was, got off work a bit early today. Mainly because it was his wedding anniversary with his wife, he wanted to get home earlier.

However, when he returned home with a gift in hand, he was surprised to find that his wife wasn’t getting ready as she usually did around this time of year, preparing to go out for their special day.

Instead, his wife was sitting on the couch, engrossed in something.

“I’m looking for a bride for your son!” she said with a smile.

With just one sentence, Wang Jianjun was taken aback, then he approached with a smile. “What’s going on?”

Wang Ye’s mother, sitting on the couch, looked at her husband and said with a smile, “Shi Wen came over this afternoon, and these are photos of some younger girls from her family. I’m currently selecting them to see if there’s a suitable match. If there is, I’ll introduce them to our son!”

The name Shi Wen mentioned by her wife was familiar to Wang Jianjun. She was his wife’s longtime friend and classmate, someone they had known for decades.

Upon hearing her words, Old Wang sat down next to her with a smile and said, “Isn’t it a bit early to talk about this while our son is still in the military?” “Early? What do you mean by early!” Mrs. Wang turned her head and gave him a playful glare.

Holding several photos in her hand, she looked at Old Wang and said, “Just because he’s in the military doesn’t mean he can’t get married and have children, does it? Wang Ye is not young anymore, and it seems like he wants to stay in the military for a while. I need to hurry up and get him married to give us a grandchild.”

“Hehe, do you have someone in mind?” Old Wang didn’t argue and asked with a smile.

“Yes, there are three girls in total. 1 think this one looks good. Look at her round face, full chin, and a well-defined nose. She’s a good match for a husband!”

Talking about this, Mrs. Wang suddenly became excited and quickly picked out one of the photos to show Old Wang.

Old Wang looked at it without giving any comments, just smiling as he looked at his wife and said, “So how do you plan to introduce her to our son? He’s in the military, and he hasn’t had much time to come home in the past couple of years.”

Mrs. Wang didn’t mind and said, “What’s the rush? This girl is only nineteen years old, just started college this year. 1’11 send the photos to our son later, and he can take a look. If he thinks it’s okay, I’ll have them exchange letters or occasionally call each other to start getting to know each other.”

“Shi Wen has already mentioned that her family has seen photos of your son, and they all like him!”

“When did you give our son’s photos to them?” Old Wang was puzzled.

Mrs. Wang replied irritably, “What nonsense are you talking about? How can they have a blind date without seeing your son’s photos? Well, take a look again. This girl’s name is…”

Back in his hometown, Wang Ye never imagined that his parents would be looking for a daughter-in-law for him. After all, he was only nineteen years old at the moment.

At this time, he had just been sent out of the tent by Commander Hong.

After Captain Liu went inside, he was immediately called in as well.

There wasn’t much said, just some words of praise and encouragement from the commander, followed by the commander humorously asking if Wang Ye wanted to switch to a different battalion, and then Commander Hong started cursing.

Finally, Wang Ye watched the commotion for a while before being sent out by the commander.

“Work hard and give it your all in the next two days. Bring some glory to our battalion.”

“Yes, sir! 1 promise to complete the mission.”

Wang Ye saluted with a smile.

“Good, go ahead!”

The commander didn’t say much, especially since they were just outside the large tent, and their conversation could be heard from inside.

What’s more important was that there were journalists around at the moment. It wasn’t Wang Xiaofei but the female journalist from the military headquarters and another journalist from the division headquarters who had been following the senior officers inside the large tent.

When the battalion commander told Wang Ye to leave, they didn’t stop him, because Wang Ye really didn’t have the time right now.

At various competition grounds, the final events of today’s competitions were almost coming to an end. Wang Ye had to go back and follow the arrangements.

During the lunch break, everyone could just lie down on the competition grounds, but they couldn’t do that overnight.

When Wang Ye returned to his platoon, the 400-meter obstacle course had just ended. After resting in place for ten minutes, everyone was led to an outdoor area to set up for the night’s rest.

It was basically an open field outside, and they set up a row of tents, one for each platoon.

“Wang Ye!”

While setting up the tent, which wasn’t finished yet, Wang Ye was approached by someone.

It was the lieutenant colonel Wang Ye had seen inside the large tent earlier. He was in his thirties, about 1.7 meters tall, with an ordinary appearance. He had gone unnoticed inside the large tent earlier.

But now, when Wang Ye saw him calling his name, he immediately had some guesses in his mind.

In fact, when Wang Ye had entered the large tent earlier, he had secretly observed the officers, trying to figure out which lieutenant colonel among them was the one Captain Liu had mentioned from the special forces.

However, upon inspection, Wang Ye couldn’t quite distinguish him. There were several lieutenant colonels inside, and the one who had come to find Wang Ye now had been standing at the back earlier without any significant actions.

“Go ahead!” Wu Jianfeng was standing next to Wang Ye and looked at the lieutenant colonel standing about ten meters away. He immediately told Wang Ye.

He didn’t know this lieutenant colonel, but it didn’t matter. The battalion commander was here today. If Wang Ye was called, he would let him go, but he would follow later.

He would find the battalion commander later to discuss this matter. He couldn’t wait until things went south, and the battalion commander didn’t even know about it. If the operation failed, he would still bear the blame for dereliction of duty.

“Yes, sir!” Wang Ye nodded and then, under the watchful eyes of others nearby, ran over to the lieutenant colonel.

“Hello, sir!” As he approached, Wang Ye saluted crisply.

“Good, come with me!” The lieutenant colonel smiled kindly.

If Wang Ye hadn’t guessed that he was an officer from the special forces, he would never have associated him with the special forces in his current state.

Thinking back to the tough and menacing special forces instructors and officers he had seen on TV, Wang Ye couldn’t help but be surprised by the lieutenant colonel’s mild demeanor. Without saying a word, he followed the officer.

At the same time, behind them, Wu Jianfeng greeted Kang Hua and said, “Watch over here for a bit. I’m going to find the battalion commander to inquire about the situation.”

“Sure!” Kang Hua nodded, and then Wu Jianfeng jogged away.

On Wang Ye’s side, the lieutenant colonel in front of him led him to the obstacle course they had just run for the 400-meter obstacle race. He brought him directly to the high bench of the obstacle course.

With a quick jump and a hand support, he deftly turned around and sat down on the high bench, not asking Wang Ye to join him. He just sat there, looking down at Wang Ye from above.

He smiled and asked, “Do you know who I am?”

“I don’t know,” Wang Ye replied without revealing that he had already guessed the officer’s identity. Captain Liu had discreetly told him, and there was no need to show off about it.

“Hehe, that’s fine. Let me introduce myself then!”

Sitting casually on the high bench, he introduced himself, “I’m Black Fox, though many people actually prefer to call me Old Fox, even though I’m not really old.”

“Black Fox?” Wang Ye raised an eyebrow and pretended to sound puzzled. He was playing along as if he didn’t know the officer’s background.

Of course, Black Fox, sitting up high, didn’t actually think Wang Ye was clueless.

Black Fox was very satisfied with Wang Ye’s performance. He nodded with a smile and said, “Yes, Black Fox is my code name, but there’s no need to mention my real name. I’ve been using this name for many years, and even in the future, you can continue to call me that.”

“Me?” Wang Ye feigned ignorance once again.

“Hehe, yes!” Black Fox replied with a smile. Then he suddenly asked, “Do you know about the special forces?”

“Are you from the special forces, sir?” Wang Ye asked in return.

He didn’t respond to Black Fox’s somewhat silly question. It was obvious, wasn’t it? How many men from China were unfamiliar with the special forces?

However, Wang Ye’s response, or rather, his question in return, caught Black Fox off guard. It made him feel a bit uncomfortable.

“Quite spoiled, aren’t you?” Black Fox muttered to himself as he looked at Wang Ye.

In the military, especially when dealing with superiors in unfamiliar situations, it was customary to respond directly to questions. But Wang Ye didn’t follow that convention.

Black Fox could only sigh, thinking that Iron Bones Hero Regiment had pampered Wang Ye. Of course, it didn’t matter. Every soldier who joined his unit was treated like a treasure in their previous units. He was skilled at teaching the rules to newcomers, and he didn’t consider whether Wang Ye would join or not at this moment.

Joining the special forces was the dream of military enthusiasts who loved the army and aspired to long-term military careers..
