Chapter 262: Chapter 262: War Wolf’s Surprise_1
Lu Chennong smiled slightly when he heard Sun Lihua’s words and pointed to Princess Tongtong, who he was holding, saying, “Master Xu doesn’t care much about anything, his greatest care is probably this quirky little princess Tongtong.”
“Haha, Uncle Lu is right, Tongtong is Daddy’s little sweetheart!” Tongtong also tilted her head and said to Lu Chennong in a milky voice.
“Tongtong is also Uncle Lu’s little sweetheart!” Lu Chennong chuckled as he gently patted Tongtong’s little head, amused by her words.
“Brother, let’s go inside, I’m already eager to meet Xu Fan,” urged Lu Chenbing, who stood by Lu Chennong’s side.
“What, are you that excited to see Xu Fan?” Lu Chennong laughed.
“How could I not be excited? You don’t know, the other day I asked Xu Fan to train the War Wolf Squad’s pups, and guess what? After just two days of training, these pups from the War Wolf Squad have turned wild, each one fiercer than the last, practically becoming a pack of howling wolves. If they keep training like this for the whole month, the previous Falcon Squad won’t stand a chance against the War Wolf Squad now.” Lu Chenbing spoke with great excitement about Xu Fan’s training.
What he didn’t know was that Xu Fan, the irresponsible instructor, had only visited the training ground once these last few days; he had given the War Wolf Squad’s members an elixir and taught them a body-refining martial art “Martial Venerable Combat Techniques” before turning into an absentee supervisor, never setting foot on the training ground again.
However, what Lu Chennong admired wasn’t Xu Fan’s professional dedication but the effectiveness of his training.
In last night’s inspection operation, although the War Wolf Squad couldn’t catch the culprit who stole the Blood Bodhi, the action led to the unexpected cracking of several long-standing major cases and the arrest of more than a dozen hardened fugitives.
During the catch, Xiao Bei, an injured member of the War Wolf Squad, was particularly fierce.
Lu Chenbing remembered visiting this lad before Xu Fan arrived; he was lying in the infirmary, secretly upset because a leg injury prevented him from training.
But once Xu Fan arrived, he miraculously healed this wounded soldier, who was supposed to rest in bed for three months, in no time at all. Not only was Xiao Bei cured, but his strength also increased dramatically, catching up with the most powerful captain of the War Wolf Squad, Su Jingfeng.
In the action last night, Xiao Bei single-handedly faced six fugitives with superior fighting skills without falling behind; he used his own strength to subdue five people, and the last fugitive, being genuinely afraid of Xiao Bei’s reach, eventually knelt down and begged for mercy.
When Lu Chenbing heard about this, he was so thrilled he almost jumped for joy.
With just two days of Xu Fan’s leadership, the War Wolf Squad had grown so much. If Xu Fan could lead them for a full month, the War Wolf Squad would undoubtedly become Yan Country’s most formidable special forces benchmark.
With such a top-tier special forces team, Lu Chenbing was confident in winning the crown at this year’s Yan Country organized system-wide competition.
Before, when the War Wolf Squad was not strong, Lu Chenbing only hoped they could match the Falcon Squad, but now, seeing the transformation of the War Wolf Squad, his expectations have risen, and he has already planned to enroll the War Wolf Squad in this year’s system-wide competition.
“Haha, Xiao Bing, who would have thought not only is Xu Fan strong himself, but also such a good hand at leading troops,” Lu Chennong nodded his head, already unsurprised by Xu Fan’s excellence.
Xu Fan would only be surprised when there was something he wasn’t good at.
“Bing bro, Nong bro, come into the room, don’t just stand outside,” said Li Hua when she heard their conversation, waves of shock in her heart. She had immense respect for Xu Fan, and with her two cousins in tow, she slowly walked into the room where Elder Sun was.
“Uncle, we’ve come to see you!” As soon as Lu Chenbing and Lu Chennong entered, they went to Elder Sun’s bedside and greeted him with great care.
“Is that Xiao Bing and Xiao Nong? You’ve worked hard, being so busy yet still coming to see this old wreck,” Elder Sun replied with a smile. Although his words sounded modest, his eyes crinkled into blossoming smiles upon seeing his nephews visiting him.
“Elder brother Xu, I really don’t know what to say. It feels like whenever there’s a problem, you can always come to help. My Lu family truly owes you a great deal of gratitude,” Lu Chennong said after greeting Elder Sun, then he gave Xu Fan a big hug.
“Lu bro, why be so formal? It’s only just now that I’ve learned you and Bing bro are Elder Sun’s nephews. Zhonghai really is small,” Xu Fan mentioned, feeling quite moved after hearing them call Elder Sun ‘uncle’.
He did not expect that in the course of saving people, he would end up encountering acquaintances.
Moreover, this acquaintance, he had treated before.
Now, Lu Chennong’s chronic health issues had been cured by Xu Fan, Lu Chenbing’s War Wolf Squad members, too, had their leg injuries treated by him, and even their uncle Elder Sun had been healed by Xu Fan.
His family owed Xu Fan so much.
“Elder brother Xu, since my cousins already call you ‘elder brother,’ I’ll take the liberty and do the same. For healing our father, you are our family’s great benefactor. If there’s ever anything you need, just look for me, Li Hua. As long as I can do it, I will, even if it costs me my life. You can’t leave today at noon; you must stay here for lunch!” Li Hua followed up, speaking to Xu Fan.
“Hey! Within the family, there’s no need for polite phrases. Elder brother Xu is our elder brother, and Li Hua, you’ve been his elder brother from the start. If elder brother has any trouble, you, as his big bro, should naturally help out!” Lu Chenbing, a man of straightforward nature, laughed heartily as he pacified Li Hua.
“Guys, Elder Sun has just woken up; let’s not waste the fresh air around him. Let’s find somewhere else to talk. Give Elder Sun some peace so he can rest properly; how about that?” Lu Chennong, being the eldest and most conscientious, suggested to the group upon seeing that Elder Sun wasn’t in the best condition.
“Alright, let’s sit in the living room for a while. Li Hua, no need to be formal with elder brother Xu. Elder brother Xu is very down to earth; if we’re too courteous, it might make him uncomfortable, right?” Lu Chenbing said with a laugh, calling Xu Fan to walk with him to the living room.
“What Chen Bing said makes sense,” agreed Li Hua with a nod. She summoned the nurse to take good care of Elder Sun and then led the group to the living room.
In Lu Chennong’s arms, Tongtong asked curiously, “Uncle Lu, are we going to eat something delicious?”
“Haha, Tongtong, we’ll make whatever you want to eat,” laughed Lu Chennong heartily.
