Chapter 1482: Chapter 1482: This Is My Responsibility

When Xiao Ting’s emotions finally settled down, the two sat under a tree, and Xiao Ting began to tell Jian Dan what had happened over the past days.

When they first arrived, many looked down on them. Fortunately, Bai Yan and the others protected them, so openly no one dared to face them, but privately they were often bullied.

Every time they were bullied, Ouyang Jing would protect her. To avoid constant bullying, they practiced diligently every day until they became strong enough that no one dared to bully them anymore.

They finally got their first mission opportunity, but it was this mission that led to the subsequent events.

The mission was not just for the two of them; there were eight others, making ten people on the mission.

The mission wasn’t complicated, and their team of ten would have had no issues. But for some reason, the mission details were leaked to the opponent in advance. As soon as they arrived, they were surrounded. Eventually, only three people escaped, and Xiao Ting and Ouyang Jing were two of them.

Another man was in charge of piloting the plane, but before Xiao Ting could fully get on board, he had already started the plane, causing her to almost fall off.

By then, their pursuers had caught up and grabbed hold of Xiao Ting’s foot.

The man told Ouyang Jing to let go of Xiao Ting, but he refused. As a result, the man opened fire on Xiao Ting, leading to her capture. Ouyang Jing watched from the plane, calling out to her, but it was in vain.

Later, it was Shang who rescued Xiao Ting personally.

This matter should have ended there, but for some reason, Ouyang Jing leaked the base’s confidential information to the boss of those people from the last time.

“But why?” Jian Dan asked, having not yet heard why Ouyang Jing did such a thing.

“Wuwuwuwu…”

Upon hearing Jian Dan’s question, Xiao Ting began to cry again, “It’s all because of me, all my fault! All my fault!”

“What’s going on exactly?”

Jian Dan, though anxious, waited until Xiao Ting calmed down a bit before asking again.

“At first, when I heard the news, I simply refused to believe it. But later, during a capture operation, I saw Ouyang Jing. I asked him why he did it, and he told me…”

“What did he say?”

“He said… ‘With how I am to you, don’t tell me you can’t see it? I came to the base with you, blocked all harm for you, risked my life to save you, and did anything for you, but what about you? You fell for Shang. Is this fair to me?'”

“What? You like Shang?”

“Jian, he hates me, he hates me! It’s all my fault. If it weren’t for me, Ouyang wouldn’t have turned out this way, it’s all my fault!”

“This can’t all be pinned on you, I have some responsibility too!

Before coming here, I asked Ouyang Jing how he felt about you, and he told me he saw you only as family.

And I actually believed him.”

“Jian, what do we do now? A direct order has been issued: if they see Ouyang, there’s no need to capture him, just execute on the spot.”

“What?” Jian Dan’s brow instantly furrowed.

What exactly did Ouyang take that it has reached such a severe level?

“Jian, I’m so scared now, I don’t know what to do? Every day I’m terrified of hearing news of Ouyang’s death, I…”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let that happen!” Jian Dan pulled Xiao Ting into her embrace.

“What will you do?”

“I will stay here and have Shang assign this mission to me.”

“You?”

“This is my responsibility!” Jian Dan’s eyes were filled with determination.

She brought Ouyang to the base, so naturally, she had to ensure he is safely brought back.

Moreover, even though she had heard the reasons from Xiao Ting, she still couldn’t believe Ouyang would do such a thing. She had to ask him face-to-face.
