Wu Tianlong was sitting in front of the computer and didn't even lift an eyelid when he heard that.
"What's up?"
"Help us investigate, what's the deal with our Captain's game CP?"
Li Xiaoniu said, winking.
"Our Captain has been looking at his phone and smiling during training breaks recently."
"He must be chatting with her, my curiosity is about to explode!"
Wu Tianlong's fingers stopped on the keyboard.
He frowned and said seriously.
"This isn't good, it's the Captain's private matter, if we're found out, we'll all be punished."
"Besides, investigating others without permission is against regulations."
Zhou Chenguang also leaned over and persuaded him.
"Oh, we're just curious, we won't tell anyone outside."
"You see how the Captain is like a perpetual iceberg."
"Aren't you curious what kind of woman can melt him?"
Wu Tianlong fell silent.
To be honest, he was also extremely curious.
Everyone in the base knew that Lu Mingyu, the Captain of the Megakaryocyte Special Operations Group, was a human-shaped refrigerator, unapproachable.
But such a person actually found a CP in a game and was gentle and considerate to her.
This was simply the biggest wonder of the year.
Under the continuous instigation of Li Xiaoniu and Zhou Chenguang, Wu Tianlong's inner curiosity triumphed over reason.
"Alright, just this once, don't do it again."
He took a deep breath, and his fingers flew across the keyboard again.
"If the Captain finds out, you two are responsible for taking the blame."
"No problem!" Li Xiaoniu and Zhou Chenguang guaranteed in unison.
Utilizing a loophole in the game's backend, Wu Tianlong quickly tracked down the other party's IP address.
After a series of complex positioning and information comparison, a place name appeared on the screen.
"Found it."
Wu Tianlong's voice was a little surprised.
"The other party's game location is in the Jiangshan Garden Villa Area in Jiangdu City."
Li Xiaoniu's eyes widened.
"Jiangshan Garden?"
"Damn, I've heard of it, the villas there cost at least 100,000 per square meter!"
Zhou Chenguang also leaned over to look at the information on the screen.
"It also shows here that the nature of that villa is for rent."
"My goodness, what kind of rich woman can afford to rent a villa in such a place?"
Li Xiaoniu exclaimed.
"No wonder the Captain wasn't interested, it turns out he found a rich older sister."
Zhou Chenguang adjusted his glasses and made a new request.
"Tianlong, can you find a photo?"
"Let us see what the rich woman looks like."
Wu Tianlong immediately closed the query page and shook his head seriously.
"No."
"Tracking the location is already pushing the boundaries."
"Investigating photos is a serious invasion of privacy, which is absolutely against regulations."
He looked at his two expectant teammates, his attitude firm.
"This matter ends here."
Li Xiaoniu and Zhou Chenguang exchanged glances, though somewhat disappointed.
But they also knew that Wu Tianlong was right.
They were soldiers, and discipline was etched into their bones.
"Alright, alright, then we won't look."
Li Xiaoniu shrugged, and everyone had no choice but to give up.
Early the next morning, just as dawn was breaking.
Lu Mingyu had already packed up and changed into a clean and neat civilian uniform.
Coming from a military background, his routine was extremely regular, and his actions were swift and decisive, without the slightest bit of sloppiness.
After a simple wash-up, he stepped out of the dormitory.
The air in the base in the early morning was slightly cool, with the freshness of plants and trees.
Lu Mingyu walked straight towards the office building without looking sideways.
Downstairs, a young man in a suit was already waiting there.
Seeing Lu Mingyu's figure appear from a distance.
The man immediately stood upright, a respectful smile on his face.
"Captain Lu."
The man quickly came forward to greet him.
He was the assistant of his second uncle, Lu Hai, and had specifically waited here.
"Mr. Lu is waiting for you in the conference room on the third floor."
Lu Mingyu nodded, without any extra words, and followed the assistant into the office building.
The assistant led the way, carefully maintaining a distance of half a body length, not even daring to breathe loudly.
Lu Mingyu's aura was too strong.
Even without wearing a military uniform, that cold, unapproachable aura was enough to inspire awe.
The two, one in front and one behind, quickly arrived at the entrance of the conference room on the third floor.
The assistant pushed open the door and made a "please" gesture.
"Captain Lu, please come in."
Lu Mingyu stepped inside.
There were two people sitting in the conference room.
One of them was his second uncle, Lu Hai.
The other was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties.
He wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses and carried a mix of business acumen and the air of an artistic worker.
Seeing Lu Mingyu enter, Lu Hai immediately stood up, a smile appearing on his face.
"Mingyu, you're here, come sit down quickly."
Then, he pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and introduced him.
"This is Director Ding Hui."
Then, he turned to Ding Hui.
"Director Ding, this is the nephew I mentioned to you."
"Lu Mingyu, the Captain of the Megakaryocyte Special Operations Group."
Lu Mingyu merely nodded slightly towards the other party, as a greeting, without any expression on his face.
He pulled out a chair and sat down, looking directly at his second uncle.
"Second Uncle, what do you need me for?"
His voice, like his expression, was cold, direct, and devoid of any emotion.
Lu Hai cleared his throat and said.
"It's like this, Director Ding is currently preparing a reality show called 'if i were a female special forces soldier'."
"We think you are very suitable, so we would like to invite you to participate."
Before Lu Hai could finish speaking, Ding Hui, who was beside him, took over the conversation and enthusiastically added.
"Captain Lu, our program aims to showcase the true demeanor of our special forces soldiers to the general public."
"It promotes the positive energy of the military, which is very meaningful!"
"We would like to invite you to serve as the chief instructor in the program, guiding the female artists participating in the show."
Lu Mingyu listened without even moving an eyebrow.
He didn't even consider it for a second.
"I refuse."
Two words, concise and sharp, like ice cubes hitting the ground.
The smile on Ding Hui's face froze.
Lu Hai also felt a bit awkward.
Lu Mingyu continued in his straightforward tone.
"My duty is to lead training and be ready to execute missions at any time, not to put on a show on TV."
"This kind of thing is a waste of time."
"You should find someone else, there should be plenty of people in the military who want to be on TV."
After speaking, he prepared to get up and leave.
He felt that this conversation was no longer necessary.
"Hey, Captain Lu, Captain Lu, don't be in such a hurry to leave!"
Ding Hui quickly got up and eagerly stopped him.
Lu Hai also quickly smoothed things over.
"Mingyu, sit down, listen to Director Ding finish first."
Lu Mingyu, out of respect for his second uncle, sat back down, but his face was already full of impatience.
Ding Hui, seeing him sit down, breathed a sigh of relief and quickly began his persuasion.
"Captain Lu, I know you have concerns."
"But our program is truly not an ordinary entertainment variety show."
"We have the support of the Military Region's propaganda department, it's absolutely legitimate!"
"Moreover, in terms of candidate selection, we have given it careful consideration."
Ding Hui's eyes were full of sincerity.
"To be honest, Captain Lu, I've looked at several candidates recommended by the Military Region, and not one is more suitable than you."
He began to praise him non-stop.
"Your appearance, your temperament, you are simply the perfect spokesperson for special forces soldiers."
"Just standing in front of the camera, without saying a word, the audience will be convinced!"
Lu Mingyu remained expressionless, unmoved by these flattering words.
Seeing this, Ding Hui had no choice but to pull out his trump card.
"More importantly, it's your identity!"
He emphasized his tone, appearing somewhat excited.
"The Captain of the Megakaryocyte Special Operations Group!"
"The ceiling of combat power!"
"This title itself is the biggest gimmick!"
"As long as you agree to participate, the popularity of our program will definitely explode!"
Lu Mingyu's eyes grew a few degrees colder.
What he resented most was others using the honor he and his team members had earned with their lives as a tool to gain attention.
The atmosphere in the conference room fell into a stalemate for a moment.
Lu Hai looked at his nephew, who was impervious to persuasion.
He sighed inwardly, knowing that ordinary persuasion would not move him.
He leaned slightly back in his chair and said casually.
"Mingyu, Director Ding's program is very sincere."
"Moreover, there is compensation for participating in the program."
