The Sweet Rival (Mango Shen and Nathaniel Ye) novel Chapter 1756

"I'm leaving."

Zion's words stunned Benjamin for a moment, and then he suddenly realized and said, "Oh, you're saying about the censorship, aren't you? Don't worry, Sissaye and I will be there for you, and Uncle Carlson too. This military region is ours, and it's just a procedure. Don't take it too seriously."

Upon hearing that, Zion didn't explain anything. Instead of letting Benjamin feel the sadness of parting with him, he might as well let him think so. Gradually, his emotions would settle down and everything would be fine.

"Well, okay. You also have to live well in the future. You should be calmer when I'm not here.”

"Got it."

After giving instructions to Benjamin, Zion hung up the phone and began to write a transfer application. He also put Benjamin as his substitute position.

Benjamin's qualifications and experience were enough to take up his position.

After arranging everything, Zion found Mateo.

"Mateo, do me a favor. I want to retire."

"Are you crazy?"

Mateo was about to explode.

"Zion, do you know that if you continue and take a step forward now, you will reach a height that many people will never be able to reach in their lifetime? Now, are you telling me that you are going to retire?"

"Yes."

Zion didn't have any emotional fluctuations. Perhaps in everyone's eyes, Zion wouldn't be too emotional even if the sky collapsed.

He said lightly, "Mateo, someone did something to my gun during the mission."

Hearing this, Mateo fell silent and frowned tightly.

He was also an experienced soldier, so he naturally knew what Zion's words meant. After thinking for a while, he said, "Are you saying about pretending to retire and using this chance to catch the one who did something to your gun?"

"That's your duty. It has nothing to do with me. I want to retire, sincerely."

Hearing Zion's words, Mateo lost his composure again.

"What do you mean? Do you have a new task or other plans? What did Master Mo say?"

"No, I just want to retire. I want to leave the military region and transfer to the business field."

"Are you crazy? Zion, do your parents know? Does Master Mo know?"

Zion said calmly even facing Mateo's rage, "Mateo, this is my life. I can make my own decision."

Mateo fell silent.

Zion had always been an independent child. Mateo had already known about this but Zion was also the best and most talented child among the younger generation.

"Give me a reason. If you did this just because you hurt the hostage by accident, I can tell you very well that I can handle it for you."

"No, I just want to leave the army."

Zion pressed his head and said, "Mateo, I'm going to get married."

"What does this have to do with you leaving the army?"

"It has something to do with me!"

Zion said in a low voice, "When I was alone, I could charge for the country with all my heart and soul with all costs. But now that I have a person whom I want to protect for the rest of my life, I will hesitate. I once had a thought that when there is a day when my woman is kidnapped or held hostage by terrorists, can I still calm down and put my nation and people in the first place? I can't find an answer for this."

Mateo fell silent.

"What are you doing?"

Tessa gave him a helpless look.

Sissaye and his younger brother, Melvin Mo, also looked at Carlson.

Carlson said angrily, "That brat Zion..."

"Dad, what's wrong with Zion?"

Sissaye immediately tensed up.

Carlson was stunned for a moment and then said, "What else can he do? Just irritating me. I'm telling you to learn less from him in the future. Sooner or later, I will be pissed off by you all."

After that, Carlson stopped eating and left the dining table in a hurry. When he went outside and called Zion again, he couldn't seem to get through.

Carlson jumped in anger and went straight to Mateo, only to find that Zion's application for retirement had arrived at his desk.

He still wanted to say something, but Zion left him a single letter. After reading it, Carlson fell silent.

He was really the son of Nathaniel. He never looked back. He even sorted out his experiences and perception in recent years into handwriting and left it to the military region, only he did not stay.

Seeing that Zion had made up his mind, Carlson was silent for more than two hours before finally signing the application.

The incident about Zion accidentally injuring the hostage quieted down because of his initiative to retire. Sissaye and Benjamin didn't know at all that it was the last time they met Zion when they said something bad about Evangeline in the hospital that day.

After arranging everything, Zion asked someone to make a silver half- face mask overnight. However, he fell asleep and got up before dawn the next day, and went straight to the secret training base of the Ye Family.

All of a sudden, the alarm of the training base rang, and everyone woke up from their dreams. Before they could resist, they were choked by Zion's tear bomb and coughed, except for one person.
