Chapter 125 You Caught Me Again


    "Colonel, do you think we can nail down several weapons this time?" Mark asked with great interest. As


    a soldier, anyone would like to touch this kind of hi-tech equipment, and Mark was no exception.


    "I''m not sure right now. But, I think we won''t take many this time as we are facing a great budget


    problem." Daisy replied. Her attention was still focused on the file.


    "Colonel, why can''t we request sponsorship for this program?" Mark asked with a frown. He was not as


    cheerful now as he was moments ago.


    "This is a matter the leaders should worry about. It would be better if you just do your own job." Daisy


    raised her head and nced at him. Then she continued to review the file.


    "Okay, Colonel, let me find out what the other leaders think about this. You take your time, and I''ll take


    your leave now." Mark said. Then he walked out of the office quickly. He was such a spirited young


    man!


    Daisy felt speechless by his words. Mark had the knack for spying. He got his hands on all kinds of


    rumor and gossip. Daisy wondered how he got them. Maybe it was just like what he said, ''Knowing this


    and that ensures victory''.


    Daisy continued to sift through the file. She didn''t have the time to think where Mark go to get his dose


    of gossip. But right at that moment, she was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

    "Come in, please," Daisy answered without raising her head. But she knew it wasn''t Mark. Mark never


    knocked on the door before entering. He was very unceremonious like an impudent boy.


    "Daisy, I heard from Mark that you are back to work. Ie by to see you." Kevin walked in with quick


    steps. There was a delighted smile on his face. He didn''t like to call Daisy Colonel in private. He felt


    that the appetion would make them feel estranged.


    "Mark is really fast. Has he already been to your office? He must have gone there to get advice from


    the other officers." Daisy said with a little shame. She regretted that she hadn''t trained him well.


    "Yes. I wouldn''t have known that you''re already back if he didn''t show up at my office.'''' Kevinughed


    and sat down in the chair facing the desk. He was quite clear about Mark''s prying behavior. He did this


    because, to quote Mark''s own words, ''It appears that my colonel is a female. I have to be more alert


    and help her avoid any trouble that maye her way.''


    "Ah! Sometimes I feel humiliated because of him. What do you want to drink?" Daisy asked. She stood


    up with a cup in her hand and proceeded to make tea for Kevin. But she still asked him politely when


    she walked to the water dispenser.


    "Some green tea, please. You only have green tea here, I think." Kevin knew about her temperament.


    She was very particr about the things she liked. Once she decided on something, she would stick to


    it to the end. Daisy didn''t like change.


    "You''re right, I was asking for the sake of courtesy. If you ask for other teas, I will disappoint you.


    Because I don''t have any here." Daisy said with a gentle smile. She knew he was the only person who


    knew about this habit.


    "I can''t imagine your reaction if I had asked for any other drink." Keven joked. He looked at her with


    gentleness and affection in his eyes.


    "I knew you wouldn''t, that''s why I asked you that question." She bent down in front of him to serve the


    tea. She didn''t expect that Kevin would notice the love bites on her neck.


    Keven''s smiling face froze in an instant. His shing eyes became dark immediately. He became numb


    by the pain which quickly expanded in his heart.


    "What''s wrong, Kevin?" Daisy looked at him doubtfully. She wondered what made his face so pale


    suddenly.


    "Oh! I''m fine. I have a stomachache. Perhaps it is because I haven''t tasted your cooking for a long


    time. My stomach is going on a strike now. Keven tried his best to hide his true feelings. He smiled


    bitterly. ''Isn''t this the result that I have expected? Why couldn''t I let go of her?'' Keven thought to


    himself.


    "Nonsense. You probably skipped your meal recently, right?" Daisy asked with a frown. She


    disapproved of him not paying attention to his health.


    "Haha! You caught me again." He was saying it with a smile, but only he knew how sad and desperate


    he felt in his heart.


    "Ah! Every time you get a stomachache, its because you haven''t eaten on time. You make me worried."


    Daisy looked at him in despair. They had been friends for years. She certainly knew the reason for his


    stomachache.


    "Haha! I will try to change this bad habit." Kevin said with a smile. This time, the smile was sincere. He


    felt delighted to hear Daisy''s words. If he could get Daisy''s loving care asionally, his pain would be


    worthwhile.


    "I have heard this a thousand times. You need to find another excuse for next time." Daisy stared at


    him with a sullen look. She cared about Kevin. Kevin was like a brother in her eyes.


    "Okay, I will think about it tonight. I promise you I wille up with more convincing excuses." Kevin


    skipped the point and joked. He didn''t take her words seriously. He took a sip of the tea. The hot tea


    made him frown a bit.


    Daisy didn''t know what to say after she heard Kevin''s words. She stared at him helplessly. She knew


    he was not taking her seriously.


    "Have you checked the files for today''s meeting?" Daisy asked. She knew she wouldn''t get any answer


    on the health issue, so she stopped bothering him.


    "Yes. Do you have any suggestions?" asked Kevin. He took back his frivolous expression and returned


    to his calm demeanor.


    "I''m not qualified to give any suggestion on it. In front of a learned man like you, I ''m only qualified to


    listen to your opinions." Daisy knew she wasn''t well-versed with equipment knowledge, so she didn''t


    offer any suggestion on this.


    "You know what? Sometimes you are too modest. In fact, you know more about weapons than me.


    Your good shooting technique is well-known in the military. You are number one. And I am not as good


    as you when ites to shooting.


    Said Kevin. It was not ttery. Daisy''s familiarity with guns was astonishing. She could make out the


    type of the weapon by listening to the sound when it was getting loaded. She was able to disassemble


    the gun and resume it in 20 seconds. Nobody could break this record. So Daisy earned her current


    position with her efforts.
